The next day, Ian, Izzy, and Numba woke up groaning in pain. Their bodies felt sore all over after their nightly exercise. It took each one of them half an hour of stretching and twisting until their aches and pains had gone down to tolerable levels, just in time to head to the canteen.
“I knew he was a monster, but if this is his idea of training, I’m worried we might not survive our stay here.” Ian complained as they met up in front of the canteen. “It’s frightening how much stamina that guy has. Sh*t, I just realised that he did all of that pretty much on an empty stomach. Doesn’t that mean, tonight it’s going to get even worse?!”
“His stamina isn’t the only concerning thing.” Numba added. “Even after the three of us finally managed to trap him thanks to Izzy’s idea, we were unable to damage him, even though I made sure to not hold back my punches. I might not have been in peak condition… but he didn’t even flinch. It was as if I was punching an iron wall!”
