Chapter 82: Stay With Me (2)
Agghhh!
Her groans echoed throughout the almost empty training space.
I really dont understand you, Leonhard! Why do you always behave so well? You should treat others according to the attitude they show you. Youre too nice; you look silly with how nice you are. Like now, with Glesia. Why do we have to intervene when shes just going to ruin her own body? Is she an adult, or a seven-year-old girl? We shouldnt worry.
Leonhard chose not to respond immediately to Yumias angry words. He simply listened to her attentively. She sighed deeply.
It bothers me every time you act like this, she chose to add, sounding calmer.
Im sorry.
Then dont do it anymore. Do you know how much it hurts me to see you get hurt by others angry and inconsiderate words and actions?
He nodded slowly. Anyway, he didnt act as she expected. At that moment in time, his only thought was to stop Glesias harsh training regiment, regardless of the consequences.
I dont have any excuses to say, he chose to say instead.
What would you really do without me? Im afraid someone would take advantage of you. Yumia responded to his kind words with a slight smile.
Then all I need is for you to stay by my side all the time, he responded with a smile.
She remained silent.
As they left the training camp, he gazed up at the night sky, his mood changed. It had been many days since that event. He had achieved brilliant growth in the short time hed been here. The one who jumpstarted that growth came to his mind. The only cadet to achieve a draw against one greater who fought against him. Posted only on
Han Seong.
He was sure that that man too had made progress. He wondered how strong that guy had grown the last few days. It suddenly aroused his curiosity. Was that guy more talented than him?
***
Glesias mind was in a daze as she slowly made her way to the dormitories.
Attribute Level 4.
She wondered how she could reach it and how could she reach the same level as Han Seong. But she couldnt think of any answers. She had also fought with Leonhard, but had not gotten even a small clue. Compared to Han, she had to admit defeat within minutes. Leonhard was more powerful than she had imagined. He had grown so much in the days since the fight. During their fight, she felt that her will wear thin and it would break if she had to fight him again.
Why cant I? she asked in a tired voice, whirling around to lean back against one of the walls. Confusion tormented her mind.
Han Seong, who had a common grade attribute, looked as monstrous as Leonhard. He made an offensive that proved his worth. She tried to recall that moment a hundred times. But she could not decipher anything. Her brain remained determined to stay in a fog.
Why couldnt she get the same result as Han Seong even though she had a better attribute? She couldnt even reach Han Seongs willpower to even unlock a skill. She felt that she was far behind, no matter how much she pushed her body to the limit. The incredible fighting spirit displayed by Han Seong was beyond anything seen here, or felt by her.
Oh! Her thoughts were interrupted by a familiar voice.
Glesia. She blinked involuntarily as the voice called out to her.
Han Seong? She wondered why this man was here. And at such a late hour too.
It looks like youre training really hard too.
What do you mean?
Uh, Glesia? Just look at you. That was when she surveyed her appearance. A disaster. She really tried to immerse herself in training, but it was just an empty effort. All it had accomplished so far was to overtax her body.
You didnt know you were in this state?
No, I knew. Even her voice sounded dispirited.
By the way, why are you training so hard? Thats not very good. She merely stared at him. His black hair darker than night, and a slight smile on his mouth as he looked at her. He still looked confident. But he also looked like he had changed since his fight against Leonhard.
Why me? Im still stuck. Hes not. Will this man take his next step soon? She was curious.
Han Seong?
Yes? Feel free to ask me anything, the man replied calmly, but she didnt know what to say. She wanted to take advantage of this chance meeting. There were definitely things about Han Seong that she didnt know. She wanted to know a little more, maybe the knowing being key to her own transformation.
How much?
What do you mean?
Han Seong, I want to buy your time. It was hard to say those words. But she wanted needed to spend more time with him.
Buy my time? What are you talking about? Its already night. We should go back to our respective dormitories. Han Seongs words made her realize reality. His day tomorrow would be the same if they parted ways like this today. She really didnt like it. She wanted to make the most of her time.
Please. Han Seong stay with me. Ill pay you as much money as you want, Glesia spoke in a serious voice.
