Capítulo 62: Chapter 62 - The Training~
"I want you to teach me to be a warrior."
The old lady looked surprised at her request.
"I really mean it. Can you teach me?" Feng glanced up at her with the most serious look she could muster, but with her cute face it ended up looking more like a pouting child.
Lady Hiliana chuckled loudly. "Very well then, I shall teach you to be the greatest warrior of all times."
They both sat there watching the stars for a while, until Feng started to feel drowsy. "I shall retire to my bedroom now,"
But lady Hiliana suddenly lifted her up in a princess carry.
"Lady!"
"shhh, others are still asleep," the lady smiled happily at her.
She carried her over to their room to see the bed being occupied by the twins. "Do they always sleep in your bed?"
"N—no not always. They just felt quite scared today, so they slept with me," Feng stumbled trying to find a reason. As of now, it was okay to sleep together because they both were kids. But as they grow up, it might be not possible so Feng wanted to continue this.
The old lady understood her intentions. "It's okay, but after the age of twelve you will be sleeping in your won room. They both are not allowed. It's not good for your growth or theirs to be so close."
Feng sighed softly as she was placed on the bed. The old lady helped tuck her into the sheets. The twins next to her instantly clung to her from either side.
"They really are like octopuses," the lady chuckled as she tried to pull of Ethan's hand off of her. After a minute of struggle she gave up. "Are you comfortable?"
"yes, I am," Feng smiled at her.
"Then that's all that matters."
The lady blew the candle out and walked to the door. "I will send for a maid tomorrow morning. By five I need you in the drawing room. Wear something comfortable. Maybe a pair of pants will do," she whispered as she left the room.
Feng giggled and rolled herself in the sheets. "Wow, I'm nervous for tomorrow."
The next day a maid came and woke her up softly. Feng woke up without any coaxing. "Can you get my pants and shirt set we bough yesterday?"
"Yes miss," the maid went to the other storage room where they kept all of yesterday's shopping things before they were sorted out.
Feng wore the suit. It was just a plain white shirt with frills on the collar and a brown pant which came down to her knees. It was very comparable compared to the heavy dresses she wore. Even so, this kind of outfit was not fit for the cold weather but since she was going to work out anyway her body will get heated up and sweaty in no time.
She happily left the room after kissing the boy's forehead.
The maid led her over to the drawing room with a towel and a pitcher of water in hand. "Madam is waiting for you, miss,"
"Thank you." Feng entered the room. Much to her surprise, this was not the room she was familiar with. "Wow, it's renovated so quickly," she mumbled, glancing at the empty room.
The paintings in the rooms were removed; even the furniture there was moved away, making space for them.
Lady Hiliana walked up from behind and tapped her shoulders. "Good job waking up early."
"It's nothing." she blushed slightly. For an adult who worked almost twelve hours, it was no problem at all.
The lady followed her over and stood in front of her. "Feng, today I'm going to teach you the basics. Since you haven't awakened the warrior powers, I would have to train you like a normal soldier would to bring you up to our strength. Is that okay?"
"Yes, I don't care about specification. I just want to be able to defend myself and protect others."
"With this training you can very well defend yourself. But protecting other will not be possible..."
"Why not."
"Because I fear that you will not be able to handle that kind of training," the lady said with a small smile.
Feng frowned a little. "Lady, I want to be able to protect others as well. I don't care about myself,"
'Because I at least have three lives when dealing with tasks, but others don't have that privilege,' she thought to herself.
Lady Hiliana peered at her intently. "Then are you prepared to train until you drop?"
"Yes!!"
The old lady smiled satisfactorily. "We will start with strengthening your legs, because it is a pivotal strength when you are fighting. A sturdy stance can give you more advantage than any kind of technique."
"I want you to squat down and walk like a frog,"
"Huh? Can you repeat that?"
"I want you to squat down low and walk like a frog dear," the lady smiled kindly whist sipping a cup of tea.
Feng, on the other hand, started to sweat. This exercise she was more that familiar with. It was what they call a frog walk or a frog jump. This exercise targets the things and ankles more than anything strengthening it.
But the only problem is.... it's painful as fuck.
Feng squatted down and walked around like a frog. In just a few minutes, her thighs started to burn.
"Good posture, I want you to hop around just like that for two hours."
'Two hours!!!!! I am dead. I am so dead!!!'
Even so, Feng continued without any complaint.
In ten minutes, her legs refused to move. So she took smaller steps around the room. The pain was so bad.
Feng glanced at the wooden floor and kept continuing. Drops of sweat dripped onto the floor, making her slip.
'Ahh, almost there.'
She regained her posture and continued.
By the end of one hour her whole body was aching as if an elephant had stomped on it. Especially her legs. They were trembling without control.
Lady Hiliana watched this with a small smile on her face. She sat down in her chair and calmly sipped her tea.
The nearby maid, on the other hand, worried immensely. "Madam, it's too much.... a child can't handle such a training,"
"No, she can do it. I believe in her."
Just like that, two hours passed, and the tea had already cooled down. Lady Hiliana placed her teacup down and glanced at Feng's way. The little girl was still moving as slow as a turtle. "Two hours are...."
Before she could even finish, the little girl plopped onto the ground, all spread out like a starfish. "aghh..... I think I'm dying...."
Feng panted softly, wiping the sweat dripping into her eyes. Lady Hiliana looked down at her with a wide smirk. "Did I do well?"
"You did, wonderful, dear. This is the determination I'm looking for. Now let's continue with your upper body workout~" lady Hiliana cheerfully smiled her way.
'EHHHHH!!!!'
