My New Life

CHAPTER 42

AMMELIA’S POV

Gasp. Gasp. Gasp.

“Are you alright Nicholas?” I asked worriedly when I saw him lying on the floor.

He was just hit pretty bad earlier. Sir ethan showed no mercy and Nicholas was just kicked at the guts and flew a few meters away towards some training materials.

“Never better.” He grinned excitedly. “I missed fighting like this.” He said as he stand back up again.

“Damn that teacher.” Liam panted in front of us.

"He's a sadist." Parker groaned from beside me with a red cheek that will be a pretty bad bruise tomorrow.

“What? Is that all you’ve got?” Sir Ethan teased. We were all dirty and sweaty with an aching body that could look black and blue tomorrow.

We fought 4 v 1 for five hours now but winning seems impossible.

Well, it was our first time fighting together so our teamwork was a mess but still! We were trained well for years.

Sir Ethan was still standing with a sword on his hand and was smirking down at us.

'Oh to punch that face...'

The only achievement we got is dirtying his clothes and making him sweat.

“Shut up old man.” Nicholas who hates being looked down upon glared at his smirking face.

“I told you to call me Sir Ethan.” Sir Ethan reminded with a stern stare. "And we're done for today. You all look like you'd drop dead any time now."

"What?" We all complained, not satisfied that we haven't given our revenge for the beating we just got.

“You did a 3 over 10 for today.” He continued, ignoring us.

“What?” We stated together again.

‘That was just too low. And it was the four of us all together.’

“Are you sure?” Parker asked.

“Of course, I'm sure.” Sir Ethan said glaring at Parker not liking his question, "I haven’t even used my own personal weapon. I've been using this wooden sword from the start.”

“Ugh.” Nicholas groaned from pain and unsatisfaction.

“Well, let’s continue the training at Monday.” Sir Ethan waved and then he was gone like the wind again.

“That boring guy with no sense of style. I will beat him.” Parker said with determination to himself while combing his now messy and wet hair with his hand.

“Let’s practice tomorrow, Melly.” Nicholas turned to me.

“Sure but first, I want some rest. I'm going back to the dorm.” I said while stretching my sore body.

“I’ll join the practice as well.” Liam told us.

“Me too, me too.” Parker raised his hand.

“Sure.” I smiled at them and we started heading out.

“Oh, cousin!” Parker called when we reached outside the gate and waved his hand.

“Prince Parker.” Caspian nodded with a smile.

“Aw. Don’t be so cold.” Parker whined and hanged his arm over Caspian's shoulder which made Caspian's smile freeze. “So, what are you doing here?”

“I’m here to fetch my fiancée.” Caspian told him, shaking his arm off and taking a hanky to wipe my sweaty face which made my face flush.

‘What does this guy think his doing? I am sweaty and dirty, and what’s up with this act!’
