Chapter 53: Daydream Coming True

"Great, you look energetic. Come join the training," Ortiz said with a smile, appearing to be in a good mood.

But Arix couldn't muster a smile, a bit timid as she tentatively asked, "Sir, shouldn't you just tell me to go back and rest properly?"

Ortiz gave her a stern look and asked, "Do you think you need that?"

"I..." Arix tried to resist.

Ortiz quickly lost his patience. He turned her around and shouted, "Stop your babbling, or I'll have you make up the five days of training you owe."

Hearing this, Arix almost stumbled from fright. She felt as if all her tiredness and pain had been scared away. She immediately ran over to join her classmates in the obstacle run.

"Wow!" the students of Hecaris Military Academy initially thought Arix would go back to rest. They didn't expect such a turnaround, so most of them started to cheer along.

"What are you yelling for, you think you're gorillas? Do you still want to score or not?" Ortiz barked.
