The warm-up ended, and I divided them by combat styles or at least the one they favored.
Grapplers like Benno, Boxers like Kirra, Counterattackers like Gipen, Kickers and somewhat that looked like Aikido, let's call them the Throwers.
I went first with the boxers and said to them. -The most important thing to take into account for you guys is footwork, if you lose your legs you're done for, improve speed and side steps, know how to move, how to avoid attacks and get closer quickly then you will be more lethal with fists-
Put them in rows and their routine was:
25 Jumping jacks
50 side steps
50 in place steps
50 rope jumping (as there was no rope, they only made the foot movement)
5 3-minutes rounds of shadow boxing
And with a partner front-step to back-step 200 times
Make that 3 times.
If they manage to at least do one time I think it will be fantastic, but I said to do it 3 times to see if anyone would finish it.
To the grapplers, I explained the pressure points and the importance of the movement of the shoulder blades to be able to subdue someone, as well as the triangle and the fight on the floor, of course this is all theory since I never really learned to fight on the ground, let's say my attack method is medium-long range and short combat can be dangerous against someone who really knows what he's doing.
Their menu was:
25 Suicide Jumps
8 point Drills with Jump 10 times
Throw boulders over their heads 40 times
Throw themselves over 15 times
50 Sit-ups
And with a partner do the Triangle in the floor 30 times each
Make that 3 times
I went to Gipen and told him to watch carefully the movement of the eyes and the muscles, because when someone moves forward or do a feint, they make a tiny movement in the shoulders and knees, if you can clearly see those two points you can predict when they approach, and the counterattack is easier to apply.
The menu for them
50 Side steps
25 jumping jacks
100 in place steps
Feint barrage with a partner 100 times
Throwing rocks to each other to dodge
5 3-minutes rounds of sparring with feints and a point system.
Whoever gets 20 points can rest.
Make that same as the other ones 3 times
Incidentally I put the Aikido guys with the Grapplers.
Finally I left my strong point for the end, only 8 of them specialized in kicking, Dorian was interested so he came but he was with the boxers first.
I asked them what kicks they could do.
Some of them showed me Front kicks (Ap), the side kick (Pi) and what looked like a kick to the face (Dollyo), all of them poorly applied, since they did the movement well but did not carry enough attack force, I explained how to position the pivot foot to generate more force and the hip turn to complement the force with the back, Dorian understood quickly all the movements and I could even teach him two more kicks, the side kick (Yop) and the twist kick (Twit).
Farlan returned just as the sparring against Dorian ended.
By the way their routine was harder than the others, maybe they reminded too much of my students.
50 Jumping jacks
50 Sit ups
50 squat jumps
50 Jogging in place
200 kicks in place
100 punches to the stomach
20 kicks to the stomach
100 push-ups
And… stretching exercises
-Get up Dorian, I see that the boy's strength is better when it's his specialty, now it is time to teach something to everyone... PUT IN LINE! -
Everyone reacted instantly and quickly took a spot.
-I was observing and everything the boy taught today can serve in combat, imagine that you are in a collision with your opponent and to separate, use any of what was shown to you today, twist their wrist or throw a kick to gain ground, you can even attack the face with your fists, remember that weapons are an extension of you and as part of your body they can complement each other, always use everything to obtain victory and protect your homeland ... That's all for the morning, tomorrow we start with special training, now go and enjoy the afternoon, see you all at second bell and 2 candles-
-SIR, YES SIR-
The crowd began to withdraw and the first bell rang.
-The bell tells you the hours, in 4 candles the second bell will sound and in 8 candles it is time to go to sleep- Farlan told me as he was leaving.

While I was checking my status I opened the inventory and saw that where I placed the cell phone it said 12:02 pm. «So each candle equals 1 hour. That helps a lot to understand the hour system here»
-Elliot! I came for you, it's time to go to the adventurer's building- Lime was shouting without going inside.
-Heh... A girl came for you rookie, go with her, I'll wait for you later- Farlan was unexpectedly happy.
-Thanks Farlan- I walked to Lime, she had dressed up a bit and had two bags full of things, which I could bet were potions for selling, while we were walking she began to explain to me how the missions that the adventurers were commissioned consisted of.
-The easiest thing is to go to collect herbs that is for Rank 1 white adventurers, from there up there are missions to kill beasts or escort caravans of merchants, even the most famous can hunt dark beasts, and they say that adventurers of black rank have even defeated angels-
-Wait... angels? Are angels bad here?- I looked at her worried.
-Well, it's not that they are bad, but they are another race that lives in our world, and they want to conquer the human cities to enlarge their lands, let's say they are like the dwarves, or the elves, or the humanoid beasts, they have intelligence and create towns where they live among themselves, to reproduce- she started talking while I was looking at the food carts.
-As resources are scarce they try to conquer other lands, but angels are too strong and noble beings, so even it's strange that they attack humans to conquer, they are simply misguided and that create problems- as we talked she offered me a bread to munch.
-Personally the king of angels, the Archangel Nuriel is a kind and intelligent being, he knows that he must not go to war with other races-
-So angels, elves, dwarves and demihumans... great-
She made a worried face -Oh... Hero do not say that, please, they are called therians or humanoid beasts but they are not fond of that name either, we do not discriminate them, there are therians with different shapes and each one has its name, later I will teach you… in the meantime do not call them demi, it's a very serious insult-
I looked in amazement at Lime. -I'll be careful, I didn't know I'm sorry-
-Sure Elliot, as long as you don't say that, everything is fine- she replied with a smile
While we were talking we arrived at the adventurers' building, for reasons I will call it Adventurer's Guild, despite the fact that it's called the adventure association.
A blue screen opened - Registered "Adventurer's Guild" from now on any mention of the other name will automatically translate to the chosen word- «That's efficient»
Lime indicated me to follow her to the guild and we approached the reception, a brown-haired girl with a braid on her side greeted her.
-Good afternoon witch, what brings you around here? Do you no longer have spider legs?-
-Ha... ha how cute and funny Eris, I bring the hero, the potions and at the same time I came to present the results of my hypothesis about the quantification of magic-
-Oh ... wait, are you serious? – Eris put a serious face all out of a sudden
-Ku ku ku Of course I'm serious I finally got a lead and I can present you proof- Lime did a proud pose.
- Allow me a moment... BOOOOOOOSS!!!!!!!-
-Is that how they talk to the boss of the guild? - I asked Lime.
-Yeah well... Eris is her sister, the others need to speak him in a different way-
-Who is looking for me? I hope it's something important that I needed to stop my training with the new adventurers... ah! It's you witch, what do you want now? - A Light-brown guy with muscles and a surprisingly high height, came from behind the counter, he carried a Double-handed Axe with only one hand.
- Good afternoon, Chief Jock, I bring the results of the hypothesis about the quantification of magic, as well as registering the summoned Hero, so he can receive compensation for this accomplishment and at the same time to send him on missions- she talked fast and firm.
-The hero huh... interesting, but more importantly, quick your results, I told you that it was impossible but if you really got what your report said then is something revolutionary, come on, talk!- The Chief was very excited and hurried Lime.
-Elliot, please gave us his numbers- Lime asked me
-Examine- I said out loud even though I could do it without talking.
Status:
Name: Josias Cederick Krin / Alias: Jock / Age: 44 years old
Title: Berserker (Guild Leader, The Muscular Hero, *********) Lv: 48
HP: 24287/24310 MP: 40/40
-It says here that your level is 48, your vitality points are 24310 and your magic power is 40-
-Hum... I don't have magic power boy, these numbers don't prove anything witch- He was angry.
Lime made a sad gaze.
-Hey Guild Leader, here also says your titles you are a Berserker, named Josias Cede...- but before I could finish he covered my mouth.
-Woah woah... silence boy, does that thing says my real name? Okay, I believe you, just don't say it out loud please- he was looking at Eris.
She had a grin and her eyes were shining.
-Leaving that aside- he hold me and with a hand sign ask Lime to follow him.
In the guild master room, he asked Lime –What do you want to do with this knowledge?-
-Well, first I'll tell the magicians how much magic points they have, and be wary of the use of each spell, we could try to check how much every spell uses and…-
I interrupted –You know? I can also know how many magic points each spell uses-
-That's Fantastic, it would be easier then, we can all keep count and how to administer our magic, so no one would die of magical deficiency- Lime was enthusiastic and way too happy.
-I understand... I'll allow your access to them, but only if they want it, I will not force anyone to be "examined"- He stand up and in a louder voice said -Hey Erina I know you're hearing from the other side of the door, do an informative reward quest at all levels and all classes, send it to their membership cards- we heard footsteps hurrying.
-Membership cards?- I asked
-Yes boy- he took out a black card - This card identifies you as an adventurer and upon completing each mission, you can send the finishing quest directly to the card, since it is equipped with a transport spell, and it changes color automatically when you complete the missions required to move up ranks, it will glow when you need to present an exam to change rank, also it records your movements and prevents people from buying the materials to trick the system-
- Ohh! That's a lot of technology and you have achieved it without knowing about levels or life points... Simply amazing- I gave a round of applause in my mind for all the adventurers.
Erina approached me and gave me a card -Take it, to link it to you I need blood, lend me your finger-
I gave her my hand, she punctured my finger with a needle, when I pressed my finger on the card, it glowed turning white, the card showed my name and rank, as well as the number of missions completed, which were 0.
When I touched the card it made a sound and with the voice of Eris I heard -Attention all adventurers, when you can you are summoned to the guild for an assessment of your abilities, the reward will be described when you attend-
Eris turned to me and said. -Well, the mission is given, you can wait on the training grounds, the newcomers will most likely show up early talk to them and prepare before the real adventurers come-
-This way boy- Jock had already opened the door and I followed him.
