"Huh!? You killed wolves!? That party must be really strong!" Exclaimed Nicolas... now that he said it, it's quite true, a single wolf would massacre a mob of newbie players.
"Well, one of them knows curses, so she weakened the wolf by a great deal" I said, remembering Peko.
"So that's how you were able to do it..." Said Nicolas with a thoughtful voice
"So, you can think, huh" I said making fun of him
"Hey! Well, yeah, I was thinking that I might add someone who knows curses to my party later"
"Do it, well, good bye. I'll log in, I found a master to teach me some stuff"
"Oh, nice! I found one too, but weird things are happening... well see ya~!" Said Nicolas hanging up
'Time to start the training' I thought and logged on.
As I went down the stairs, I saw my Master waiting at the desk. Seeing me he got up and signaled me to follow him.
We went to the central stairs and upstairs there was a huge hall.
"Here I will be training you; we'll start with Hand-to-hand first for now. When I deem right, we will start with Dual sword mastery. Now, ready yourself, as you are the only student, we will spar most of the time. I will be teaching you the basics until you get the skills, then I will use them during a spar, then you will get a 15 second rest and after it you'll have to attack me, so open your eyes and sharpen your senses, I'll show them to you once per try" Said Plate with a serious look
I gulped down and nodded, 15 seconds rest... this will be tough.
As the training started, when he began attacking me, his moves were so fast that evading was almost impossible without concentrating really hard.
At first it wasn't that tough, but as time grew more, my 15 seconds rest seemed as if they were nonexistent, my mind became hazy and I was almost acting in pure instinct, I couldn't even hear my master anymore as I just paid attention to his movements.
I got some notifications about my stats rising, I saw some, but after a while I couldn't even think about that, the only thing in my mind was about recovering my breath and move the least possible and doing optimum performance with my duller movements. After 8 hours of torture my master finally said.
"Rest drink some water and eat, we will start again later for another 4 hours" And he walked off as if it was nothing.
*huff*huff* I was breathing hard, I couldn't even control it, I was in the ground with my stamina in the red and exhaustion to a high level. Hell, even my health had gone down because of severe overexertion.
After resting for a bit, I went to the fountain to get some water and I saw Zenith and Peko there too. By the looks of it, they were having a rough time too...
"Yo" I said to them in a tired voice going for the elixir of life...
"Hiya~" said Peko in a tired voice.
"How is it going?" asked Zenith to me
"After seeing you two, I think pretty normal..." I said with my fatigue and hunger
"Seems so, well, Plate did say he would make your training more intense as you can't come everyday" Said Zenith with a pitying look on his face...
"So that's why... and what happened to you after getting kidnapped?" I asked and saw that Peko was smirking trying to contain her laughter.
"I got chased by a giant with a broadsword till the end of the world, forced to run with a Two-Handed heavy sword and then got sandbagged by said giant... after a while, from hellish spars and evading destruction, I never felt more alive after escaping the clutches of someone... for an hour or so..." Said Zenith shuddering thinking he would go through it again in little time from now...
