Blood Fresher Than Anything

Chapter 7: This Training Is Hell, May Please Teach Me Something

 I wake up and Mirai is in my face. "Sleep good?" I jump and Mirai laughs "You get scared too easily. Let's start with step one. I'm going to put you in an illusion. I want you to escape." Mirai says I nod and she puts her hands up as I see a mist surround me but the skill Illusion nullification activates automatically. When the mist clears Mirai sees I'm still up and says "Oh that's how you escaped. Ok so I'll teach you me and May's detection skill. Your job is to find me first." Mirai says that and uses camouflage making her and her aura disappear. I can't pick her up with my senses so I look at May and say "May you know where she is?" May laughs and doesn't answer him. I yell "THIS ISN'T FUNNY!" May then says "If it's not funny then why am I laughing?" I get pissed off and then I get hit in the back of my head. I turn and she's not there. I try to grab behind me but she isn't there anymore. I close my eyes and try to focus (Choose a skill: Detection or Ultimate sense.) "Detection." Immediately a field opens up and I see Mirai. I smile and run and grab her "Gotcha." Mirai then turns the camouflage off but I see I'm grabbing her breast. Immediately my hand comes off and Mirai said "I don't like you that much. That was a bit of my full speed but now to see if you learned Detection properly let's see if you can find my sister." May gets up and hides her presence. She throws a smoke bomb so it's even harder to see and sense her. I use detection again making a field open up but I don't see her. All I see is the smoke and Mirai laughs "I kind of feel bad since I know where she is already it's funny seeing you try." I close my eyes and use the detection again but still don't see her so I switch and use my enhanced senses. I can see her but can't pinpoint where she is through all the smoke. I then jumped and saw if I could see through the smoke then I got annoyed so I looked around the smoke and went out of it. (Choose a skill: Mimic or Ultimate sense.) "Mimic" I didn't feel any different but I guess that's what was supposed to happen. I use my senses and mix it with detection, making me see where May is, then I run into the smoke and grab her "Gotcha May." May then kicks me off and says "That's not an invitation to touch me." I get mad and say "I bet you get no guys." Mirai then laughs and May says "As if. I don't want one, I'm too busy with paying off a debt." I sigh "What about you Mirai do you have a boyfriend?" Mirai smiles teasingly "Do you want to be mine?" I immediately said "Yes." Mirai then says "That's a joke dummy I had boys but they all get in the way of my job so currently no. As for my ex's they're all dead." I immediately get scared and ask "So May are you a virgin?" May almost sheaths her sword but thought hard to herself and said "I'm not telling you anything else for the rest of my life you fucking snitch."  I then sigh and say "I am sorry May, I didn't think I had a choice." May then says "Just imagine if they were alive and word got out then the next day I died." Mirai then says "I'd hunt them down." I then tell May "But May if it was the other way around wouldn't you have ratted me out?" May says "Who do you think I am? You? I would listen to myself rather than make myself a target." Mirai then says "One more training for detection, close your eyes me and May will be behind you and we will touch your shoulder you have to guess who it is without looking and you have to guess who it is before we touch your shoulder." I nod and Mirai takes May and goes to the back but as I'm watching them a screen pops up and shows me. (May Yanogatori: 20th strongest person in the world Age: 23 Strength: 30,000 Health: 70,000 Mp: 50,000 Agility: 60,000.) I immediately get surprised and think is this the skill Tenko used on me. I immediately turn around and May and Mirai begin using their speed. My Detection activates automatically and I say "May." I turn and May is ahead about to touch me. They go back and then I turn again they do it all over I say "May." I turn again and May is right next to me. They go all the way back and I turn and they rush me again. I say "Mirai." And a Mirai is right in front when I turn.  Mirai then says "Awesome now let's teach you offensive attacks." May then sarcastically says "Wow good job rookie." I get happy hearing praise from May even if it isn't genuine. Mirai takes her sword and uses Fire hack making a gigantic fire in front of her then she front flips in front of it and her sword touches the fire automatically activating her skill fire infusion making her sword go on fire and she slashes down creating a huge fire wave. I get amazingly impressed. I clap so does May not knowing her sister could do that. I use my mimic skill and use Fire hack but I switch it up and then I hear (Choose a skill: Fire golem or Fire Dragon.) After hearing that I immediately said "Fire golem." turning the Fire hack into a giant Fire golem with a flame blade but then I make it disappear. Mirai then says "HOLY! that was cool. Even I can't do that." May slowly claps, "Wow stealing someone's power for your own." She said sarcastically. I then say "Well it's training, I have to take the move." Mirai smiles and says "Right now it's your turn May, teach him something." May rolls her eyes "Yeah no, he's not being original he'll just steal my moves and will use that sorry excuse of getting better." I then try to defend myself "No I'll use it and make it better." May looked at him like he was stupid. "So you steal moves and make it your own like it was yours?" May said. I had no words. "Well yes but that's how you train of course it's not mine I'll just use it." Mirai then says "Ok sis I get we worked hard to make moves but come on he's a close chance to getting revenge on the demon king." May sighs and says "I don't know, he doesn't deserve to know what I know yet." Mirai then says "That's fair sis, start with your weakest moves and I'll teach him some of mine." May rolls her eyes and says "Whatever, I don't know why you like him, one thing I ask of you, don't destroy our bloodline by having kids with that." Mirai gives her a blank face and says "Sis I know I tease but I don't go that far to date that. Also look at me I could get any boy. I'd rather not date him."

May smiles and says "Good, that would be the biggest mistake of your life." I then speak up "I'm right here you know." May gives me a disgusted look. "No one is speaking to you." She said in a cold voice. I sigh and say "So are you going to teach me something?" May looks at me again and says "Whatever I guess." I smile and touch May's shoulder "Thanks, I appreciate it for real." May looks very disgusted as if she's about to throw up. "Yeah, sure just don't touch me." She said. Mirai then says "Ok ok so let's get to it. May will be teaching you one of her weakest moves so put it to good use." May rolls her eyes and says "Things involving nature are kinda annoying to use or whatever." May touches the floor and a tree sprouts out. "Now copy that, copycat." May says. I look at her with a surprised expression and say "Y-your kidding me right? That's useless." Mirai giggles. May stares at Mirai "Quiet down, and secondly you're gonna learn what I feel like you should learn right now, like it or not, it doesn't affect me. Now go ahead and do your "make it your own" shit." I sigh and use mimic, making a tree appear and bloom (Choose a skill: Wood minion or Wooden prison.) I then say "Wood prison." Making it trap Mirai in a wooden prison Mirai then says "Huh?" Mirai then uses her aura and then breaks the wood. I look in amazement and Mirai then says "May teach him one more thing, a water spell cause all the ones I have are too powerful." May looks at Mirai like she's crazy "Absolutely not." She said. Mirai rubs her ear and says "Ok ok I'll do it. Jinsoo I'll teach you water assassination but we're going to need a big body of water. May help me up here." Mirai starts spraying water from her hand and using her mana to hold it in one spot in the air. May pouts but helps anyways until Mirai said there was enough water. Mirai then says "Ok let me show you." Mirai then uses water assassination she conceals her aura and jumps in the ball of water because her presence is cancelled. It doesn't even look like she's in the water when Mirai jumps out the water ball explodes. "WHOA THAT'S COOL."I say. Mirai bows feeling proud of herself. Mirai then makes a lot of water in the air again and I use mimic to mimic what she did. (Choose a skill: Presence eraser or Vanish) Through the water I say "Vanish" and my entire body turns invisible but my aura is visible I still swim and get out the water making it explode. (Choose a skill: Water Blade or Water destroyer.) "What if I say both?" The voice goes quiet so I use my mana to try and use water blade and it works. Then I swing my hand creating a water wave that blows up. I get surprised and say "Awesome." Mirai smiles, feeling proud of me. "Ok I'll teach you something May can't do and then she'll teach you something I can't do. Let's start with Mana manipulation, relax your muscles and let it all out." I calm my body down doing what she said and all my mana goes all over the place. (Choose a skill: Mana pressure or Mana control.) "Both." Immediately I suck all my mana back up and Mirai says "Good now put all that mana you released into heavy pressure so much it manifests into something scary." I use Mana pressure and make sure my mana manipulates into something I fear. Suddenly I let out a giant snake that hisses at Mirai. (Choose a skill: Animal creation or Intimidating pressure.) They both sound cool but the move she was trying to teach me has to be intimidating pressure so I say "Intimidating pressure." The snake goes back inside me and Mirai says "Wow you kinda scared me. Ok sis teach him something you know and I don't." May fake yawns. "Yeah no, that's it for day one." She says. Mirai then says "Ok." I then asked, "So what do we do for the time here?" Mirai laughs and says "What time? There's no time here. It's probably been 10 days already but the point is to teach you and make you strong. Back when Tenko took us here we took breaks and played tag or trained so now you're going to train with May because I would kill you by accident." May looked confused, "May? May who? May not doing shit." May said. Mirai sighs "Sis I get you hate him but mom will give us hell if he isn't properly trained, and if that isn't enough to change your mind think about it like this. The faster he dies the faster we can get to finding a new hero." May smiles but still says "No, I want a longer break. Maybe in a day or two." Mirai then says "Ok so me and Jinsoo will train for a while you can watch sis." I get scared and appraise Mirai (Mirai Yanogatori: 17th strongest in the world Age: 21 Strength: 50,000 Health: 100,000 Mp: 126,000 Agility: 80,000.) I gulp but then I appraise myself (Jinsoo Hitagashi: Age: 3,020 Strength: 40,000 Health: 60,000 Mp: 30,000 Agility: 70,000) I start thinking even with these stats I still can't win.
