Rudeus was doing some push-ups as he was sweating as he clenched his teeth while continuing his workout as he pants before he fell exhausted as he shift on his back and sat up and looked at himself in the mirror to see he has been improving a bit as he was a bit muscular and he only sweat dropped
Rudeus: Ehehehe...I guess I'm going a bit overboard...
He said with a sheepish smile and rubbed his cheek with his finger before he heard his door open and saw Lilia the maid of his house
Lilia: Rudeus-sama, I believe it's time for a break and have some lunch.
Rudeus: Haiii.
He walked by her as they went to the fields in front of the house as Rudeus munched on his sandwich that Lilia made as Rudeus was looking at the sky while eating his lunch before Lilia stood up
Lilia: Excuse me for a minute Rudeus-sama.
The boy only nodded and saw the maid go back to the house as he stood silent before a mouth and an eyeball appeared on his cheek
Sukuna: Oy, whatcha got there?
Rudeus: This? This is just a sandwich.
Sukuna: Is it edible?
He only sighed as he took a piece and gave it to him as he chew on it for a second before swallowing
Sukuna: Hmph, not bad.
Before humming was heard and Sukuna disappeared immediately as Rudeus saw Lilia bring some water as she offer it to him as he took it and thank her and drinks it as things were awkward silent for a moment before Lilia spoke out
Lilia: Rudeus, I have a question to ask you...
Rudeus: Mm?
Lilia:...What you got motivated to work yourself out...?
He stood silent before looking down silent as he put a finger to his chin and think about what did get him motivated before he looks at the maid
Rudeus: Maybe I just...push through my limit.
Lilia: Push through...?
He only nodded as he went back to eating and Lilia stood silent before smiling a bit as she runned her hand over his hair as they both stood outside for a moment to watch the sun go down
( Timeskip )
Rena: "...Ne, Sukuna you there? "
A mouth appeared on Rudeus's palm and he lift his hand and looks at it
Sukuna: What is it now...?
He questioned annoyed cause he was tired of answering the kid's questions each day
Rudeus:...you think that one day...I'll be able to get strong...?
Sukuna: Tch, and here I thought you'll fully understand what I said...of course, you will. Stop being so down on yourself. If you keep on letting yourself down, just push through your limits!
He disappeared leaving Rudeus absorbing the words in his thoughts as he was silent before he decided to go to bed letting all of this be dealt with later
( The next day )
Rudeus along with his Mother and Father had invited a tutor turns out that her name was Roxy as the three of them could sweat dropped
