Chapter 22: PRACTICE MAKES YOU BETTER.

"Oh? I thought you were strong!? Don't tell me you can only do this! This is only the beginning. Now, go to the Healing Pond and cure your fatigues!"

I'm tired!! This everyday nonstop practice really makes me crazy! I cried holding my weapon.

"1000 slash, 1000 thrust, 1000 spear throwing, a 10 kilometer run, a 1000 push up... And using all of my Skills to drain all of my mana! This is making me crazy!! F*ck I'm not Saitama!"

I yelled like a madman, I can't do this anymore. I know training was good but this was not a training anymore! This torture!

"Hah hah pant pant. I can't do this. My feet are already numb. Uuuhhhhhh"

Niña was lying on the ground. Her training was to use her Skill and run until she is broke. While doing it, she must train her throwing knife technique... till she vomits. And she did it, the first and the latter.

I could see the tears in her eyes... I'm starting to cry now.

"SISTER MIRIAM, HANG IN THERE. WE'RE GETTING NEAR THE POND, DON'T LOSE HOPE. NO MATTER WHAT HAPPEN DON'T GO TO THAT WHITE LIGHT... NO!!! SISTER MIRIAM NO!! DON'T LEAVE ME!!!"

Lane was holding Miriam. They were making a dramatic scene, and it looked real.

".... I'm sorry Lane.... Tell my parents that I love them....."

She passed out. Poor Miriam. Using her Clairvoyance and bow to shoot simultaneously gave a big strain on her body. It seemed like she couldn't endure the endless suffering.

And Lane please don't push yourself. I know that you are tired too. You're still a child.

"Huhuhuhu... Rest in peace sister Miriam... I'm actually jealous."

*splash*

A bucket of cold water rain down into her face.

"Waahhh. Cold!! Cold!!!"

"Did I tell you to rest? MIRIAM. STAND UP AND PRACTICE AGAIN. DON'T STOP UNTIL YOU'RE NOT BLEEDING!!!"

Demon King Kyle splashed a bucket of water into Miriam's face. Poor Miriam.

"Waaahhh. Noooo!! I don't want this!! This demon!! Somebody help me!!"

She screamed for help, even I wanted to call for help. However, I knew that the Demon King won't let us escape alive.

"Who's demon huh!? I'll tell you this, Demons are more frightening than me. But, Is that it!? You'll never get dinner!!!"

Kyle said it while looking like a sadistic man.

"Wha! Nononononono. I'm gonna do it! I'll be the best Clairvoyant female in the world!!"

Miriam shook her head, she started to shed tears.

"Good. Keep it up and you'll be the best global satellite in the world!"

"Yes, sir!!"

Ah. She lost it. She. Really. Lost. It.

"Mikael! Niña! Lane! What are you looking for!? Return to practice!"

""" Yes, sir!!"""

I don't know if I'll die in the hands of a monster or in the hands of Kyle. Well, either way, we lived another day here in the Punishment.

.

A week passed.

I'm now fighting outside the Castle. Kyle said that we must not be dependent on the Rejuvenating Room.

He said that we should start fighting on our own. We need to fight monsters alone so that we could gain experience.

"I agree with his statement and now I'm here. Killing these monsters. "

Relying on others may increase our safety, but it would decrease our experience when it comes to facing dangers.

"Actually, I'm not afraid about them, nothing can hurt my teammates. They're already strong. These pipsqueaks cannot bruise them"

We are now fully adapted in fighting many different monsters. We could kill them like an insect actually.

"Haha, this is easy. The only fight that I've struggled with is fighting Bosses. "

Goblin, Kobold, Orc, Trolls, Slime, Wolf, Rats, Bats, etc. All of the weak monsters inside an RPG, I have already faced them. They didn't reach a dozen seconds before dying in my hands.

"Weak. All of the monsters that I have faced are too weak... Or I'm too strong?"

I watched the people who were near the Healing Pond. They were desperate fighting a hobgoblin and Orc chief.

Maybe I am right. Our team was too strong. I'm Level 92 and my teammates said they are 80+. I even beat Kyle when it came to leveling. He said that he was around level 87.

"Help!!"

The men called for help. The monsters were too strong for them. Even though they could heal right away, the Hob and Chief gave them more wounds than the Pond's regeneration.

The Pond couldn't resurrect a dead person. They were idiots for staying there.

The Healing Pond may have healed them, but it is the most vulnerable place when the monsters attack.

I helped them and sliced the two in half. The hobgoblin and Orc chief were too weak for me now. I can even kill them with my bare hands.

"St- strong! How did he get strong!?"

"Sigh, you shouldn't have gone outside if you're only going to die. You should have stayed in the Castle. It's safer than here. "

I said to them.

"But the Healing Pond is here. We will not die as long as we are inside it!!"

" Yes, yes. Says the man who nearly lost his head."

"!!!!! You!!!"

"What? Wanna fight me?"

"..... Tch"

These idiots. I taunted them and asked if they can fight me. But... they were cowards.

"We can't beat a monster like you..."

"You are right. I'm a monster and you are insects.... Tch. If you can't defeat the monsters here. You should have just hide."

"...."

"What? Wanna fight me?"

They look like they want to kill me. Not that it matters anyway.

I left them and started my leveling. I have my priority. I must become strong to survive the last four months here.

*slash*

*stab*

*thrust*

*swing*

Any monster that blocked my way became mincemeat. I'm not actually using my Skills right now. This is my normal strength.

With my Shock. My spear could toast anything it touched.

"Raaaahhhhh!!!!"

The Kobold screamed when I activated my Shock Skill. His skin burned in just a second.

"As always the Shock skill is really fatal. The electric current can kill huh. Then how about I add my Electric Strength"

*crack crack*

A crackling sound came out of my body. I could see the spark of electricity was surrounding me.

"Now. Take. This!"

*BOOM!!!!*

A devastating smash destroyed everything that it reached. A big hole opened up and cracked the ground and the landmark change.

".... They all die. A full swing killed all of them...!! "

"What was that!!!!"

"What the f*ck happen! Is there a Monster Boss!?"

I heard them shouting. I attracted too much attention. They looked disturbed when I smashed the ground.

"Now that I've thought about it... I have the highest level right now in this District. Shit. Does this mean I'm the strongest!?"

... If you looked at the fact. I really am. No one else except me had reached level 90.

"I really am..."

I paused and thought that I might have been the STRONGEST AWAKENER IN THIS CASTLE... AS IF!

"Hehehe. What am I thinking? Kyle can do better. If we are talking about destruction. He can destroy the whole Castle by using a 'Kame Hame Ha'. "
