Capítulo 20: ...The Struggling....
Prince Hans won.
This is the first time someone could win over her this easily.
- Miss Rose, winning does not mean always that you are the best, but it means sometimes that your opponent is weak. Said Hans while glaring at the others.
Rose was a little bit disappointed.
" He said that I won earlier because the others are weak, but they are strong! They were chosen from hundreds, how can he say that?"
- Today's welcoming training is over, prepare yourself for tomorrow.
Roy headed to the Prince's office:
- What do you think about their level, your highness.
- They still lack so many techniques, we need to train them hard to reach an advanced level.
- What about...Miss Rose. Considering the time you took to defeat her, I think that was quite impressive.
- She has the required skills, but can she keep up the end? We will see about that.
The trainees went back to the dorms extremely tired. The hard training exhausted their bodies, and the Prince's words broke their spirits.
Rose felt angry after seeing her peers being treated like this.
Tomorrow morning, they gathered again in the training ground. The Prince came and he started the hellish training. Rose noticed their struggling, she tried her best to cheer them up.
- Come on, we can do it guys.
- Mind your business, miss Rose, we don't need your pity. You must be proud of yourself. Said Derek.
- What are you saying? We are in this together.
- No, we are not, it was obvious that miss Rose's skills are beyond ours. You don't know how shameful we felt when a woman defeated us.
At that moment, Rose slapped him in the face.
The others gathered around them, while Derek was shocked:
- You...Why did you...
- Shut up, how dare you said those words in front of me. So, you felt shameful not because your skills are lacking, but because a woman defeated you? I was an idiot, I felt angry because the prince said you are weak, but now, I understand why he said that. It wasn't because of your physical strength but because Your souls are fragile and weak. If I was a man, it wouldn't bother you being defeated a hundred times? How ironic.
Rose was very angry, and no one could say a word over what they heard. She was right, it doesn't matter if it was a man or a woman, all it matters is the skill level.
- I'm sorry, Rose, I said those words out of anger after discovering how far still I am compared to you, despite being in the same team.
She smiled and helped him stand up:
- That's why we are training, to discover our weaknesses and improve ourselves, not to compete with each other. Does anyone else have an objection about me being here?
They all answered at the same time.
- No, we don't.
- Good, let's continue before the Prince comes back.
Actually, Hans was standing outside listening to their conversation, he knew that the men will feel inferior in front of her, but he didn't imagine that she will solve the problem like this.
- How interesting, she is a fearless woman. Slapping a man like that without hesitation! I must keep an eye on her.
The Prince entered the room to continue the training. He ordered them to fight him with their wooden swords, meanwhile, he was pointing on their weaknesses and how to improve.
