"Are you sure you are not a siscon?" Elijah said Randel got more furious but he felt Arthur patting his shoulder.
"What is it, small pretty boy?" Randel asked with a growl.
"I understand you, my friend, Nay My Brother," Arthur said with a face one would have when they meet their best friend after a long time.
"Brother Small pretty boy," Randel hugged Arthur like he had met his long-lost brother.
"Hey isn't it alright if our sisters are fin- Argh w-what are you two doing? get off me," Curtis who was in the middle of explaining was tackled to the ground by Randel and Arthur.
"Small King you are a shame to the Big Brother Association, You're a Failure,"
"You have violated the Rules of the Big Brother Association, we need to eliminate this failure,"
"Ah! S-Stop Elijah help me, And Randel You are not even a Big Brother" Curtis tried to ask for Elijah's help who was a bit too shocked to understand what was going on.
'Is it because I don't have a sister that I don't understand? Damn is this what it feels like to be left out,' Elijah thought seriously as Curtis was getting beaten up.
"What are those idiots doing there?" Tessia muttered while looking at the boys or more specifically Arthur. She was still a bit salty about how she went to help Arthur who wanted to cross swords with Haru and got eliminated first with only two strikes.
"Looks like they are having fun eh," Claire said with a smile and they looked towards the small forest area where the chase was still going on. Claire had fun during this lesson because she was able to experience how to handle a situation where your enemy is a lot stronger than you.
Inside the forest, Kathyln was running while shooting ice arrows at Haru who was chasing her with a lazy expression.
Haru easily dodged the ice arrows and caught up to Kathyln who smiled a little.
"Ice Tornado," With her voice, a 3 story huge tornado rose up from Haru's feet surrounding him.
FWOOOSH* SHATTER*
"That was good," Haru said as he appeared behind Kathyln and placed the wooden katana at her neck after breaking her defense barrier.
"Thank you, professor," Kathyln said and they went out of the forest to meet each other.
"Looks like Kath was caught as well," Claire said with a smile.
"Hey Evil Pretty Boy I call discrimination, How come it is only us that have injuries?" Randel shouted at Haru while looking at the girls who had no injuries and the boys who had many bandages on them.
"Well, I can't hit the young ladies now," Haru said plainly.
"Damn he isn't even trying to hide it," Randel gritted his teeth while Arthur, Elijah, and Curtis thought that Haru was correct in not hitting the girls because his punches and kicks hurt like hell. Even while Haru was holding back a lot of his strength.
"Alright then did you guys understand why I did this?" Haru asked the seven.
"It is so that we know how to face situations where our enemy is overwhelmingly stronger than us," Arthur said and Haru nodded.
"That is only half of it, What I really want to teach you guys is how to run away," Haru said making the seven look at each other.
"The main thing is when you fight an opponent who you have no chance against, in this scenario escaping is your only option, this will help you in many different scenarios as well since you will have a way to retreat when something doesn't go as planned," Haru said and everyone nodded, Since when you fight monsters they aren't going to stop if you admit defeat so this training will help them in a dangerous situation while also building a sense of caution in their heads even if they fight someone weaker than themselves.
But they understood that the main point of this training was for them to practice how to face humans which are more cunning and vicious than beasts.
"Ok, now let me tell you what you guys did wrong, First of Arthur why did you come at me head-on?" Haru asked making Arthur scratch his head.
"I wanted to cross swords with Professor," Arthur said with an embarrassed look.
"Looks like now you know who the better swordsman is," Haru said making Arthur cough and shifted his gaze to Tessia.
"And Tessia if your teammate is acting idiotically then you have to take them with you not help them fight If I was someone you could defeat why would you guys be running away?" Haru said causing Tessia to glare at Arthur who whistled and looked away.
"I'll keep it in mind Professor, I'll make sure to DRAG my teammate if he makes a stupid mistake," Tessia answered with a smile as Arthur felt a chill, Haru nodded and moved to the next one.
After giving them advice for 15 minutes Haru looked at them.
"Now then let's do this again," Haru said and then they continued the exercise again where Haru went after them.
Because it would be too easy if Haru went with his full power he stopped his Kenbunshoku Haki and didn't use any mana plus he limited his own physical capabilities by 90%.
How was he able to do that? Well, Kurumi is the one who did it for him plus she also gave him a limited mana pool to work with if he wanted to use some spells which weren't necessary.
[I can do anything since I am the best after all, So you better praise me and Head pats are a must,] Haru smiled at Kurumi's voice and made mental note to spoil her later, But now he was looking at his students who were lying on the ground with bandages on them.
The reason the girls got a few hits was because they asked Haru to not give them special treatment and he just shrugged.
'Anyway, I guess I can understand why Kurumi told me to pay more attention to the training, I guess I can learn a few things as well,' Haru thought the boys sat up with a tired look on their faces, Because Haru didn't end the chase quickly but rather he took his time in tiring them out with constant attacks over time.
"Y-You Pretty Professor are you a demon?" Randel said as he fell on his back again. Everyone else didn't even have the power to rise up.
"Stop talking, rest for 10 minutes then we will start the exercise then," Haru said with a smile making the seven look at each other in fear.
'There is still more?' They thought and gulped while thinking about what type of exercise they will have to do.
So after 10 minutes everyone sat up and looked at Haru waiting for what they are going to do next.
"So the Exercise you guys are going to do is this," Haru said as he raised four fingers and everyone gulped. They wished it wasn't some hellish training routine but they were also anticipating what type of training it will be.
"100 push-ups," Haru said in a dramatic tone with an overly serious face.
"Huh?" everyone was astonished.
"100 sit-ups,"
"Huh?"
"100 Squats,"
"Huh?"
"And a ten-kilometer run," Haru finished the over-dramatic scene and looked at the seven in front of him.
"What is with the dull faces?" Haru asked while looking at everyone.
"P-Professor are you sure this is the correct training course?" Claire asked a bit reservedly.
"Yes of course," Haru said with a nod.
'This surely isn't right? There has to be something more to it,' Arthur thought that the training was too easy for them.
"Hahaha and here I was so nervous, This will be a piece of cake," Randel remarked with a smug face.
"Sure then we will start with the Push-ups get in your starting positions and you can use mana to strengthen your body," Haru said with a smile and everyone got into their starting position with a confused look.
Using mana doesn't that mean that the exercise became a lot easier?
Everyone thought the same and got into the starting position since they trusted their Professor, They thought that it might be an easy one today because they were tired but boy were they wrong.
DOOOOOOOOM*
"Start" With Haru's light voice a huge pressure descended on the seven crushing them.
"Argh," Arthur gritted his teeth while trying to hold on to Randel doing the same.
THUD* THUD*
But both Elijah and Curtis fell down not being able to bear the pressure on the girl's side Kathyln fell down with Tessia and Claire barely holding on. Everyone felt like a mountain was placed on their backs.
