Chapter 244 Training
"Is there anything wrong with it?" asked George, observing Walter with curiosity. His eyes flickered a little as he sensed something wrong.
"Not exactly…" Walter\'s eyes then turned to me as he spoke,"Did you do something?"
"Ummm… not really,"I spoke as I looked away from him.
"Oi! At least look at my face when answering… sigh… now what should we do with all this free time?" Walter spoke in confusion before he looked at even more confused Adam and Blake.
"Actually, I planned for us to finish most of the things by morning and proceed to finish the last part of the training, which can only be done in the sunlight. I predicted most of the things to be done at a particular time and hence was sure that it would be morning by the time we finish… but because of an extra entity… sigh…" He explained as he sighed at me.
Well, it wasn\'t like I caused any harm, did I?
"Do you have any idea what we could do till the sun comes up?" Walter asked with a sort of defeated expression and me, already having an answer to that needed immediately.
"Firstly, let us find a place where nobody would disturb us,"I said as I pondered a little before all of us traveled to a distant park where there was nobody present around.
I used my [Space Time Map] to make sure there was nobody around there, while also using the [Eyes of the TimeKeeper(Foresight)] to prevent any sudden surprise from happening.
"Now what?" Adam spoke as we stood at the center of the park and I smiled a little as I took a step back and spoke.
"Have any one of you had a fight for real?"
All four of them nodded in unison as they looked at me.
"Have you ever fought a battle where your life was on the life?" I asked again and… once again, all four of them nodded in unison… which kind of surprised me here. I can understand Walter because he is a regressor, but Adam, Blake and George… shouldn\'t they have a proper life? Now, isn\'t this interesting….
If I was in a jolly mood earlier, my mood dropped quite a bit as I looked at them.
"Well. Then I guess I don\'t really have anything to teach you other than proper fighting skills. Come at me, all four of you at once," I spoke and, though confused a little, all four of them nodded at once.
Perhaps because they had seen me throwing George from such a position back when he was hanging on his death, they knew that I was anything but simple. Heck, they didn\'t even let me prepare to fight.
\'Well… seems like I won\'t have to start from the basics,\' I smiled on the inside as I looked at them coming at me.
First was Walter himself, as he ran at full speed. Perhaps physical fight wasn\'t his best forte. I saw many gaps in his form. I looked in the direction of his punch and the feint kick he was going for in order to provide an opening for George who was just behind him.
Taking a step back, I first dodged the punch before the kick came in, as I predicted. I didn\'t need my [Foresight] to know that. So that question was whether to dodge this and let George come in or to take it and block George\'s path?
\'Let\'s dodge it,\' I thought as I ducked a little, avoiding his kick. I could see him smile a little as George moved forward with a direct punch.
\'Is that all there is to it? It\'s easy to predict that you are blocking my vision, George. Making Adam sneak up on me?\' I smiled a little as I saw them coordinating with each other even though it was their very first time fighting together… it\'s as if… they were born fighters.
\'Did George, Adam, and Blake have fought together before? Then how come Adam and Blake died before in the previous regression?\' I was confused for a few moments as I dodged George again and let Adam sneak up on me. With my precision and power, I should be able to dodge them, too.
\'Huh?\' I then saw George moving away from me as Blake took his place… Blake\'s form… It\'s good. Does Blake know any form of martial arts? Looked like he did.
I saw the moves of Blake were refined by others. There were little mistakes in his moves as he tried to fight me. If I were merely a normal person with powers, perhaps I would have been defeated in an instant…
\'Well… At least they aren\'t complete newbies,\' I thought as I was satisfied with their performance, before taking a sudden side step, dodging Adam, who finally sneaked up on me.
My side stepped, really surprised both Adam and Blake as they looked at me for a few moments, as if I were a monster. Though they didn\'t stop there as they took another step towards me as they began showing their full strength without holding back.
Though even after 5 minutes of continuous struggle, they couldn\'t even scratch my clothes, forget about touching me. Not that I was expecting them to, anyway.
"Now that wasn\'t half bad." I smiled at them as I saw them huffing and puffing on the ground before I continued with the same smile,"Come at me again. This time, try to be a bit more vigilant. I won\'t be merely dodging this time."
I expected to see a little horror in these kids\' eyes, but instead I could see excitement in them. They were thrilled as they stood up again and, taking their respective positions, they started attacking again.
This time, not only I attacked them here and there, but also guided them about the mistakes they made. With each move I was making, I was explaining to them the mistakes they were making and also how they could correct them.
\'Monsters,\' I thought as I saw them observing everything that I was telling them like a sponge. Especially Adam and Blake… they were far more special than I could have ever expected them to be.
\'How did they die… ah!\' I finally recalled why they died in the past timeline… It was a D-Grade Zombie that attacked them when they didn\'t even know how to use Cessation Energy. Such a… wasted potential.
It was the first time that I realized that I lost so much of a gem in my previous time…
And just like that, time passed as the voice of a young man teaching others how to use their powers correctly echoed through the night life before morning came.
When the first sunshine reached the kids, they felt their power increasing by a margin, but looking at the mocking smile of the person in front of them, they didn\'t afford to stop as they tried even harder. And the result was… they all fell on the ground without being able to land a single scratch on him.
"Well. I guess it\'s about time. Walter uses your arcane powers to get refreshed and help the others too," I thought, as I saw a couple of people approaching us.
"Well, we can do that at my house. I also have a change of clothes there for all of us,"spoke George as he looked at me. I was a bit skeptical given how his family is… towards me. They are not bad by any means, but still…
"Ah! I meant my other house. Nobody lives there except the caretakers of the house. Our clothes shop is also there, so you can take your picks as well,"George added as I sighed in relief a little before turning to Walter and others. They too nodded, as they didn\'t have any problem with that.
Taking the car back to George\'s house, we cleaned ourselves up properly as Walter helped us heal our wounds and stamina, whatever we had. And George brought all of us a change of clothes.
Surprisingly, he got the perfect size for everyone here… almost to the point that it creeped us out.
"Don\'t worry. It\'s just a creepy talent that George has,"Adam joked, making George hit him with the pillow on the sofa. Blake laughed at it as I, too, smiled at them.
"So, when are we leaving?" Adam then asked as he looked at Walter who looked at the time before speaking,"The class should start in about 2 hours, but since I could use my full power in the complete sun using its energy for my own use, it\'s better to leave in another 4 hours."
Hearing his words, I nodded at him before I spoke,"then you guys do your own thing. I should do a bit of exercise in the meantime."
After that, we began doing our own things… and not even a few hours later…
