The Angelic Knight Chapter 5

Allwind was finally able to enjoy himself for the first time since the accident that took his legs from him, he never imagined that he would be able to do gymnastics again, never mind find a place that was nearly fully equipped in a game for him to use.

The retired, old knight trainer had been sceptical at first, when Allwind declared that he could use the hoops and the travel beam. The old man paused to lecture Allwind on how difficult the piece of training was and that recruits usually took 2-3 days to get from one end of the beam to that other without falling off, while the old man was babbling on Allwind lost interest and after climbing onto the beam, began walking from one end to the other, without so much as losing his balance the old man stood there in shock which soon turned to amazement, when Allwind started running up and down the beam before jumping off the end in a summersault finish.

The hoops were up next causing the old knight to become hopeful, he was thinking to himself that he might have actually found someone, that could pass all the training no one had ever passed the gruelling training, sessions that the old trainer did only 3 people made it to the middle of the course before giving up, the boy he was now training had done in 2 minutes what it took others 2 days to accomplish, and now he was dangling upside down in the hoops something that the old man wasn’t expecting.

After doing a series of aerial stunts on the hoops, Allwind dismounted landing perfectly, the old man looked astonished before motioning to the training dummy the old man headed to the weapons racks with stars in his eyes before coming back with a long wooden sword, giving it to Allwind he stood back to watch, to find that all Allwind did was stand their trying to lift the sword before Allwind turned to him “ermm what am i supposed to do with this exactly,” the trainer stared at the boy as if he had imagined the last 10 minutes.

“You hit the dummy with it of course have you never seen a sword?” The old man asked.

“No I’m afraid that I’ve never used a sword before.”

“Then i will demonstrate to you the proper way in how to hold and use a sword.” The old man said relieved and slightly disappointed, he was beginning to think that he had nothing to teach the young boy that had chosen quiet happily to undergo the harshest training there was.

“So pay attention and copy what i do.” The old man said taking the sword back from Allwind he stood in front of the scarecrow and proceeded to slash the thing, all Allwind could do was watch in amazement as the old instructor appeared to almost destroy the scarecrow with powerful attacks before he stopped and handed the wooden sword back to Allwind.

Standing in front of the scarecrow Allwind proceeded to attack it the way the instructor had done but lifting the heavy wooden sword took all the effort he could muster never mind attacking the target this was evident when he tripped and fell into the scarecrow.

“Are you a bumbling idiot?” the instructor asked shocked.

“I’m sorry but the sword is to heavy, are there any lighter ones?” Allwind shot back trying to keep the anger out of his voice.

“This is a two handed sword try it again with a one handed sword.” The instructor said pointing to the weapons rack. Allwind looked carefully at the array of wooden weapons before he came back with two shorter swords that were much lighter he was actually able to lift these, placing one on the ground, he silently thanked god for his good fortune, before resuming his place in front of the scarecrow, he began to strike it with only one sword as hard as he could.

It wasn’t long before he collapsed on the floor tired his hands hurt to the point that they were beginning to swell, not to mention his stomach was growling as he realised the food bar had run out. The training had felt good thought he had even managed to gain 2 points in strength which had surprised him, the instructor nodded his head “good we will have lunch now come to the kitchen.”

Lunch was made and served by the instructors wife, an old lady that reminded Allwind of his own grandparents who had passed away several years ago. Sat at the table was also Lilly, who smiled at him before turning red and eating the food that was in front of her. The meal itself was simple a cooked piece of meat with several side dishes and soup all very delicious, saying thank you for the meal the two men then headed back to the gym to continue training.

The pattern was now set Allwind would login after school train till he dropped from being too tired, then having dinner with the instructors family before training again, it was only two days later when his Gymnastics stat reached level 3 and his sister complained about the lack of information he was telling her about, what he was doing and what his stats looked like, did he actual remember to check them.
