Chapter 31: Chapter 31
ONE DAY LATER:~
"Master, I'm exhausted. I can't do it anymore." Rifana said
They both are complaining non stop. I guess since it's their first time so it's natural.
"Alright, Raphtalia... Your turn."
"Please do it slowly this time, Master." Raphtalia said
"You're not the one to decide, raphtalia. Rifana, watch how we do it."
"Okay."
AFTER SOME TIME
"Master, my body is hurting." Raphtalia said
"Don't worry raphtalia, the pain will go down as we keep doing it everyday. On the other hand, you'll become better in it by going through more pain. Your endurance is too low." I said
"Master, we're doing this non-stop from last night, you didn't even let us sleep. Also, it's our first time, of course it'll hurt." Raphtalia is nagging me non stop.
"Rifana.. your turn."
"Yes master. No matter how much we do it, you're just never satisfied." she said
"I can't get satisfied by this. Besides, it's the first time."
"Master, it's alright if you teach this to raphtalia. But, do you really think that hand to hand combat will be helpful for archers like me?"
"Of course. Often the enemy close the gap thinking that close combat is your weakness since you're a an archer. Therefore, you'll have to be prepared for that."
"But really, Push-ups, sit-ups, squats, running, meditation, 20 different types of exercises and after that, hand to hand combat throughout the night. I thought you would teach me archery but no." Rifana said
"Because I know that when I give you time to rest, you start archery training, I don't think I need to teach you archery separately. Besides, I gave you potions so that you can drink it when you have body pain or hurt and nourishing beverages so that you don't feel sleepy. I don't think you two need to sleep."
Muscle cells get damaged after rigorous exercises and when they are healed by potions, they become stronger than before.
I have to train them quickly, after that I'll have to meet Sadeena too.
"What happened master?" Raphtalia asked
"Nothing."
I just noticed that Alna has left my party, means she's not coming anymore. Everything's fine, I hope Alna will at least complete the task I have given her.
ONE HOUR LATER
"Maybe this much should be enough."
After that, I taught them how to kill balloons and told them to kill as much as possible.
All my nourishing beverages and potions got used up in these days so I'll just let them sleep.
