Am I being too harsh?

"From now on this is your room, there are lots of clothes in the wardrobe, because my work here is finished I will leave. Oh, take a proper shower because you smell like a corpse." With that, Nina left me in front of a room that she said would be my room.

What the f*ck is that?! Can human nature change that drastically? For some reason, his attitude like that makes me annoyed.

I entered the room, my eyes widened to see the interior of the room. The room had a mattress four meters long and about three meters wide, the wardrobe was decorated with gold and silver as handles, and the sofa and table were arranged in such a way that I was at a loss for words.

"This room is... Nice I think?"

After I finished showering I decided to go to the canteen, I saw people talking to each other while looking at their system screens.

Unlike usual, today many people were eating in the canteen at the same time. Did I miss something important when I passed out? I took the food that had been provided by the chef. I sat in the far corner of the canteen so I could eat the food in peace.

I took a deep breath while eating my food, I felt annoyed because everyone was starting to pay attention to me with various kinds of gazes. I looked back at them with a threatening gaze, the people immediately turned their faces away.

...What a coward.

Because I had filled my stomach, I left the canteen and went to the field to test my strength now.

When I arrived at the fort gate, the guards seemed to be wary of me, it was clear from their faces that they were watching me. I ignored them and continued to go to the field.

I saw Anna practicing alone on the field, she was running around the field dragging a piece of wood the length of a car tied to his body with a rope, she seemed to realize my presence and approached me.

"Hey, I thought you were dead because you disappeared suddenly, where have you been all this time?" Anna came to me with her body covered in sweat

...Since when did we become this familiar?

"What does that have to do with you."

"Hey! I'm just worried about my rival dying, you've been missing for a week, you know?"

"What?" My eyes widened at Anna's words

One week?! I passed out for a week? she must be joking, right?

Anna looked at me with a curious look. "You don't even know how long you've been gone? Have you been swallowed by a monster or something?" Anna spoke to me in a mocking tone.

...Sh*t, how much information did I miss?

"Tell me what you guys learned in my absence"

I didn't want to do this but now I have no other choice. Anna was surprised to hear my words, she looked at my face and then smiled.

"Okay, I'll tell you all the information you missed, but on one condition."

"What are the conditions"

Anna suddenly aimed her fist at me, I reflexively avoided her attack. Anna raised her hands and took a fighting stance while shouting. "The condition is that you have to beat me!"

I responded to Anna's words with a smile. "Is that all?"

"Heh, I will destroy that arrogant mouth."

Anna ran very quickly towards me, she attacked me very aggressively, especially her footwork was very good, Anna's development in one week was very impressive. If this was me before using the Ignition method against the current Anna without using mana then I would lose.

The improvement in my body after using the Ignition method is truly amazing, not only have my muscles developed but I feel like my mind has also become clearer, I can even control my mana more freely now.

The two of us exchanged punches, I could see that Anna was a true fighter, but there was one thing that was lacking in her.

I jumped back and gathered mana in my arm, and I hit the ground so hard that it cracked, the sound my punch made was like that of a grenade exploding. Anna reflexively jumped back, her eyes widening after seeing what I did

"Anna" I called his name with a threatening look

Anna was surprised to hear me calling her name, I looked at her face while releasing mana from my body. Anna's face froze seeing the mana released from my body.

"Is this all you got?"

Anna gritted her teeth and looked at me with anger. "Do you know what..." Anna spoke with a trembling voice

"Do you know what it's like to be defeated without putting up a fight? Do you know what it's like to see your friends beaten to death by other people?!"

Anna shouted so loudly, I could see her eyes filled with anger when she said that. I responded to Anna's words with only 2 words.

"I know."

In an instant, Anna's facial expression changed to one of surprise when she heard what I had just said.

"Therefore, you will not become stronger just by relying on hard work, you must use everything you have to become stronger." I looked at Anna sharply. "Let me show you how it's done"

I drew mana around me and channeled it throughout my body, I felt a significant improvement in my body. My status increased rapidly when I mana to increase my muscle.

I quickly moved in front of Anna and stopped right in front of her face.

"What the-"

I grabbed Anna's face before she could react and slammed her to the ground

"Gahakh!" After that, Anna didn't move. It seemed like it made her unconscious.

"..."

I looked at Anna lying on the ground with her mouth open

"Is this... too much?"
