"Finally you have to be totally focusing your energy in each single attack, dealing with it like it was your last attack in this life," Cesile said these words after ten continuous hours of talking after Arthur joined her.
She spoke about many great battle tactics he knew of, and some he didn't. yet the way she kept repeating her words over and over again annoyed him.
He tried to escape midway yet she didn't allow him to do that. She wanted him to sit tight and listen like anyone else here.
"Now it's time for you to train on your strikes," she said while taking out something small before letting a drop of blood touch it and turn it into a gigantic mass of green clay.
"This is my training dummy, of course won't be enough for all of you but currently I have only ten of them," she then kept making this huge hill of clay one after another until the place was filled with them. "Train on them for now until I send someone back with more."
Arthur was sad for other masters to leave here soon, yet he wasn't that sad when she said these words. He took a deep breath while standing up and stretching his body away from numbness.
"Thanks for this precious lecture," he said before glancing at others as he shouted, "go now and train, I don't want to see anyone slacking."
"That includes you also," she said in a serious tone as she walked towards him, "my other disciples are monsters in their field, and the competition between the academies contains more monsters. You need to whip your lazy self hard and train."
"I will," he nodded before adding, "yet I have to do other things."
"Like what?" she stood in front of him while crossing her arms, "I already have seen you passing from one master to another until leaving me for last."
"The last is the better, as it will remain forever," he joked and she just harrumphed before turning her face away and started to leave.
"I'll go back now chatty one, next time I come here I'll personally test you."
"I promise you'll be amazed."
"We'll see," she said before heading towards the group of masters who just finished their lectures and tasks here. "Come and let us out, we can't leave this place without your permission after all."
He went after her and when he grouped with other masters they eyed him in sympathy that made him sigh. "Have you considered being my imperial guardians?" he asked and Mr. E nodded.
"We discussed this matter and found that there is no harm to accept the offer."
"Great," his face shone brightly before adding, "I'll appoint you the moment I return to the city."
"Alright," Mr. E nodded, "get us out and we'll come in a week time of the academy time zone."
"This is unfair," Amanda jumped at his neck at the next moment while adding, "you promised to give him more than that!"
"Chill out lady," Mr. E laughed, "we'll have one week without disciples and one week here. This is fair."
"This isn't!"
"We have other responsibilities back at the academy," Slone said before adding, "at least I and Armondo have to go out first to arrange the place where we'll stay at that academy."
"Tsk," Amanda shook her head before Mr. E added, "we promised to give double the time we give to our disciples, not the entire time we spend in the academy."
"One week is enough," Arthur said while nodding to Amanda. She did enough already and gaining him and his army of followers this time would be great.
'Open a path to the outside for them,' he gave his system the order and the next moment a gate opened. "You can leave to the other world from here."
"Thanks, and good luck," Mr. E said before moving with others towards the gate. Amanda went with them while saying before leaving:
"I'll go and make sure those guys won't renege on their promises or cheat. If you want my help anytime, feel free to send someone to find me."
"Alright," Arthur nodded while watching the portal close. "Fetch me Amelia, Randy, Omar, Agnus, Madly, Ron, Lily, Deem, and Gor."
He said the moment they vanished as he turned to face the huge army of his followers standing there doing many things at the same time.
"Things need to be organized here first," he muttered while in the next ten minutes, those whom he asked for appeared in front of him.
"How was that experience?" he asked as they all came to him in one large group.
"It was great," Amelia said with an excited face, "these masters are really something."
"I got a lot of inspiration from Master Slone," Agnus said before adding, "I need to work on a sword before applying what I learnt in the spear."
Arthur didn't forget about his spear. "Great," he said before adding, "I want you to organize things among others. Divide all into groups and start training non-stop."
He paused before adding, "from now on, I'll bring many to cook meat for everyone. Also I'll make sure to bring monsters here so they can absorb their organs."
"This…" Ron's face showed his hesitation before expressing his concerns, "are we now working entirely for the academy? What about the clan?"
Madly and Lily nodded while Arthur inwardly sighed. "The clan is everything," he lied, "but focusing on it without strong backup will backfire upon us."
He took a deep breath before saying, "I met some strange foes recently out there. My enemies have gone insane with me, even hiring up some unstoppable foes. Alone we can't face them, and they already know where I came from."
The faces of the three in front of him changed while he added, "don't worry too much about the clan.. My plan is to fool everyone and make them focus on the stronger academy not the weaker clan."
