Chapter 64: Donovan's Academic Activities 2

Nothing particular after the first three weeks as the courses just went the same as they are, probably some had a bit of altercation due to my instructor's absence making us have to switch instructors while doing Physical Traning, a Course not so popular with the students who already delved in using Magic in life as they use it like normal people breathing.

" Keep your legs steady everyone. " Mrs. Rita says as the substitute Physical Instructor Teacher for now in my Class.

Mrs. Rita (she doesn't have a family name, sadly), is a Tier II Body Enhancer Magic User, a common type of magic that people used to have, but the difference is, despite her low Tier Magic and low amount of Mana, she can discipline her students who had greater capabilities than her with her physical prowess alone as she almost beat in us in every physical training, from athletics training, Combat Training, and even Gymnastics Training.

Right now, Mrs. Rita is holding a marathon training which makes most of us almost die as we were ordered to do a marathon without any Mana Usage at all and just use our body to do the thing.

Thankfully, even without using Mana and Aether, my physical body is quite trained for the likes of this which made me able to follow her for many rounds as we all run around the circle large field.

But not just me, as I look beside me I can see Carlos immediately pass my position and suddenly run in front of me which made me shocked as I thought of him using magic while doing so which is dead wrong as the System show he was not using any internal or external power but only use his body just like me which made me shocked on how did he do that.

As I was shocked the System reminds me that my Energy Points (The points of energy used in every heavy movement I've made.) is getting low so I decided to switch to jogging mode to recharge my EP while thankfully the others are still behind me.

"( Thank goodness, at least I can res....! )" I was shocked to see another pass through me which I found out to be Aero who happens to have a slim body, enabling him to run faster and flexibly like paper blown by the wind.

"( Dammit!!! )" I say to myself while jogging still.

As I jog my way while seeing if there's another one behind me, Aero then laughs as he says the very thing he always brags about in his very life in this world.

" Ahahahaha!!!! "

" Bless the Wind!!!!! "

" Bless the Wind that enables me to run faster as it boosts the speed of my slender body. " Aero laughs while running faster than anyone in the class, even the likes of Carlos had to lose in that matter as Aero's natural speed and agility are off the charts.

" Guess it was true that Aero once gets the 1st Trophy in Neotrolitan Country's Marathon Championship before he even gets inside this academy. )" I said to myself as I remember that news regarding him being the faster runner at a young age which is unbelievable since he is only nine years old.

" Well, that's the benefit of being a young athlete, huh? " I ask as I return to run and try to follow Carlos again which he sees as he too decides to speed his feet up which made equal as both of us at the same position so far that it made many of our classmates decide to surrender and choose to have a recess which shocked Mrs. Rita as she sees many student retreating.

" Wait kids, what are you doing!?"

" The Marathon Training is not over! " she shouts while the kids retreated and can only look at her while pointing to the thing that happened behind her as she looks back only to see something she never expect to see.

" What's going on!!!!? " she shouts as she sees Aero is already behind her and almost surpasses her while Donovan and Carlos are having their time rivaling their speed as they use every physical energy they could muster to prove test themselves against each other which is good since it encourages their fighting spirit but things like that tend to make other people uncomfortable as their speed rivalry immediately puts the other's mental into question, especially Goriath that couldn't run fast due to his big muscle.

" If only I could use my physical jumping ability, I could've surpassed them anytime. "

" But sadly, this is Marathon Training, not a Long-Jump Training which is not my Physical forte. " Goriath says while he was suddenly approached by a girl student who happens to hear his muttering.

" Yeah, you're right, Goriath... " she says as she brushes her hair.

" Fiora... " Goriath says as he knows her to be his childhood friend, a beautiful girl with a Tier IV Plant Magic that enables her to turn and make plants appear in her surroundings as long her surroundings are still part of nature, not human-made.

" Physical Training is such a Brute Training, a training of the old Age and Era, a Training so irrelevant to do," she says while tidying up the rose on her head.

" What did you say? " Goriath asks as he almost felt insulted by Fiora's attitude.

" What I'm saying is, Goriath.... "

" This 'Physical Training' is a waste of time....!!!! "

" Physical Abilities had no relevance nor had the advantage, right now!!! "

" So why do we still learn it, in this Modern Academy!!! " she arrogantly says while using her fan to show her arrogance.

"( This rich girl... )" Goriath says since this attitude is common for her to have for being a rich girl despite not coming from the royal houses.

"( Her arrogant Crazy Rich attitude never changed huh? )" Goriath says while looking back at Carlos and Donovan.

"( Even the Royal Houses are not that arrogant despite their obvious overconfidence. )" he compares her to both Carlos and Donovan who still want to outrun each other.

" One more lap and we're finished!!! " Mrs. Rita shouts as she sees Donovan and Carlos's rivalry begin to be harder than before and she decides to end the marathon before a bad thing happens while letting Aero run in front of her while she kept looking in order to see their condition.

"( I hope they calmed down after this training is finished. )" she hopes as later the Marathon is finished with Aero being the student who had the highest score in this Training, even though.

" Carlos, you fraud!!! "

" I should've been in the Second Winner. "

" No, Donovan, I'm the Second Winner, not you!!! "

" It's me!!! " I shouted at Carlos which made Mrs. Rita have to mediate us in any way possible before our debate goes further.

" Stop it both of you!!!! "

" The training is over!!!! "

" And only the 1st Winner counts!!! " she shouts.
