Training [1]

[Beep, Beep, Beep, Beep, Beep]

"Ugh, is it finally time for the mistress's training?" Apart from Shuu, there was another butler that Luna was able to put her trust in. It was he was one of the few that was able to survive over the years that he watched let lady. A man that wasn't talented at birth yet he honed his skills to the point where he was acknowledged, overjoyed after he heard about his mistress's resolve to start her training to become an awakener

"Do you think that your actions never have any risk? Sorry to break it to you milady, but as your butler, I must properly educate you in the ways of combat!" He didn't expect to see such a barbaric act in the middle of the morning, with the sight of his lady soaring to the sky and the position of Shuu being the origin of her downfall

[Aldea Family Personnel: Harris Akkerman

Position: Head Butler

Awakener: Exclusive Awakener

Rankings: B Rank 21st

Class: Fencer]

"My lady are you oka~" Before he could finish his sentence in time, she drove her fists within his abdomen along with her irritation

"What the heck Harris! I just got a deduction to my graded battle because of you!"

"I was just concerned about your well-being milady, I didn't think you would've landed on your feet," Harris replied by stating his worries along with the arrival of her training coach

"Of course, she wouldn't make that landing on time, the reason why I did so was to see her choices. If she were to do well to lessen the impact on her body even if she was able to land perfectly I would've given her a passing grade. Well due to your disturbance will have to wait for her injuries to heal up before we could resume her training," Shuu called for a break after he notices her body covered in scrapes along with a few bruises that she acquired from their brawl. She was ordinary in terms of skill but her adaptability to her current situation proves to be her strong point. Making her able to quickly assess her crisis whilst she added her bodies condition to the mix making her came up with a perfect solution

[She's pretty ordinary, she kind of reminds me of when I was at her age, it doesn't matter how weak she is. Her eyes have spoken, she has the same glow as I used to have a resolve that's close to being indestructible. I wouldn't mind teaching her once I can manifest my body, for now, I can only turn into a small figure that's comparable to a doll]

After the three of them were to continue to their morning breakfast, Shuu was currently tending to his lady's wounds. Located near the garden a place that was only said to be accessed by her most trusted servants. It was filled with lush greenery along with an atmosphere that was rich in mana, it was rumored to be the place where the founder and his most trusted vassal came to train. Making it one of the most important landmarks that belonged to this prestigious lineage for countless years to come

"Argh! Can you do it a little slower?" She complained about the pain that she was receiving from applying a little bit of alcohol to her wounds. Which turned his expression from his usual caring facial expression to a rather irritated look that was aimed at her spot

"Milady do you want me to intensify our training? It looks like you're having some trouble with your sense of pain, a professional awakener would've no problems even if their limbs were dismembered. Knowing full well that as long as they take it back with their escape it can be placed back in its original place. However, you are far too gullible milady, we're just starting with hand-to-hand combat, and you're still making it harder for my side!!" That glare he aimed at her says it all, he wasn't joking when he said he would intensify their training. Due to a simple opposition to his duty, she didn't resist and showed her wounds to be cared for, no matter how much they would hurt

'Arrogant, obnoxious, and lastly someone whose cruelty can surpass the mistress, no wonder he has her on a leash. Well, I don't have any opposition to the way he's treating my master, she was rather spoiled just by looking at another person's wealth that can't match her own. To think that the child I've been looking after my whole life has finally arrived at a point where she must gaze at someone more powerful. Regardless of his status or background, he looked like a beggar on the streets when I first laid my eyes on him, but he showed his worth,'

"Wow!!? Have you gotten better at cooking? I never had this kind of stuff," Her eyes sparkled after she took a bit of his cooking, the lovely set of his cooking would even come to arouse the head butler

"A hidden talent is nothing but a wasted talent if not honed, I just learned a few more ways to use the spices you've gathered for me. Mr. Harris are you not going to join us? I've prepared a portion enough for three people," He reached out to invite the old man after he was finished giving his lady a portion of her own

[Is this what im thinking it will be?]

"No, I wouldn't dare to eat the same thing as my lady woul~"

"Harris, if you don't want it can I take your share~"

"Milady haven't I reminded you that will be training after we've finished our breakfast? There's a difference between a glutton and a starving person. Ahem, Mr. Harris, you haven't eaten and I can hear it, if something were to happen to milady without your supervision won't it get in your job? Should I remind you that her life is being targeted by countless others waiting for her to leave her mansion," Before she could speak any longer than she had foreseen, her words would stop once she felt the palm of his butler within her shoulders. He was fixated on making him eat his food, to the point where he would even threaten the safety of their lady

[It is!!? My liege why have you chosen such an old man to be your second student?]

'Isn't it a little safer if I have another one that I can use as cannon fodder? Don't worry about the little things, I can handle them without breaking any sweat. For now, I must use someone else as my hand before I could slap anyone with my own. It's a mere coincidence that his build and art are closer to the stance of my sword technique. Now don't be shy you old deteriorating man relish the food I made and grow even further than you could have imagined yourself to reach,'

Taking a bite of his cooking would affect Harris's body with just a bite, he could feel the weight of his body lowering. His long-forgotten liveliness awakens, and out of all that he has experienced with a single bite, he can feel the mana within his body bursting with accumulated energy. He tapped into his hidden potential, something that no one has been able to acquire was awakened through eating such a cuisine

[System: You've been afflicted by an unknown substance that's currently stimulating your body. No signs of poisoning have been detected, energy has been replenished, and a portion of vitality has been regained. The player Harris Akkerman is witnessing a sudden change in his body]

One bite was enough to make him reach a certain level beyond his reach, something that was only told to be a myth was true? Such a person would change overnight, without anything that would risk his life. The energy he's been storing within his body has fully engulfed his body making him fall to the ground and lose consciousness

'The reason behind the popularity of monster meat wasn't only due to its exquisite taste when there's a calamity then hope shall arise. Once the Era of monsters came to this world mass destruction would engulf the lands, later on, they'll find that by pouring the blood within the eroded areas it will grow once more. Their bodies would become weapons to aid them in battle and it was said that their meat would make anyone unlock their hidden potential. Luckily, this knowledge hasn't been found by the people of this Era,'

"What's wrong with Harris?"

"Don't mind him milady, it looks like it was too spicy for him. I might have added too much, how about you finish the rest (It doesn't look like this geezer could handle another more than he could endure)," He waited until his first pupil that he has taken under his will to train before he could move to his next plans. Training and preparations are a must even for the originator himself, knows this knowledge as well. What can talent and such things alike would matter to a person if they're beneath the ground as a corpse
