Today Tony is visiting my castle for his martial arts training.
Tony arrived in the castle in his Mark-II suit he newly built for one month after the fight with Obadiah. Tony finally landed in the open garden in the castle. When he came out of it.
Tony – Man, you have a wonderful place to leave. On the way, I even saw a lake. This castle is covered with forest. It is a good place to live peacefully. But this old castle seems to be a little too big for three guys to live.
Victor – The surrounding forest and lake are joint properties of this castle. Anyway, you are going to stay here for one year so get used to it.
Tony – What about my research on new armor. I have to do it.
Victor – You don't have to worry about that. Come with me I show you something for your satisfaction.
Tony – Okay.
Victor and Tony moved towards the third floor of the castle. Then entered a master bedroom like his.
Victor – This will your room for one year. You have servants for any need. My room is beneath your room. This room also has one special use.
Then, Victor moved towards the bedroom cabinet and reached the end of the cabinet with Tony.
Victor – Shadow.
Shadow – Opening the door, master.
The white wall moved and show the elevator behind it. Tony was shocked to find a secret door in his new room.
Tony and Victor entered the door.
Tony – You guys secret door and A.I in your old castle.
The door opened and they entered the 1st floor of the secret underground area.
Victor - This is the underground area in a round shape. I only use half of the area. While you can use others half area for your research for one year hereafter the training. Everything is safeguarded by the Shadow which is an A.I.
Lights in the entire floor turned on and Tony was surprised by a massive white underground area like this.
Tony – You guys are living like an alien on the Earth, not like normal human beings.
Victor – Privacy is important for us. Also, I never said we are normal humans. We are superhumans like Captain America but stronger than him. I, William, and Meng Tian are decedents of the Pure breed Vampire family.
Tony – What?
Victor – You will get used to it.
Tony was surprised by Victor's reveal of secrets of his Trident family.
Tony – Don't vampire drink human blood. My blood will not be tastier for you to drink.
Victor – We don't have to drink human blood for a living. We can also live and eat like a human. But stronger and agile than humans. Earth has a lot of super-powered people living among us.
Tony – Oh.
Then, Tony saw a black spaceship-like thing in the victor underground area.
Tony – What is that black thing? It looks like a spaceship.
Victor – Ah, it is a small spaceship I bought when I was in SFC. William and Meng Tian also have it.
Tony – What you mean by the spaceship you bought? You mean this is a spaceship that can travel in space.
Victor – Yes, it is controlled by shadow A.I. You can look inside it if you want.
Tony without wasting any time went inside the spaceship to research all the pieces of equipment and function of the spaceship. After he came outside with inspiration for his new Mark-3 but it was collapsed by Victor.
Victor – Don't think of using this knowledge to build a new armor. You can build it but never use it outside until you need it. Because this technology gets into the hands of the wrong person it will be disastrous for Earth. You have to promise me to only use these technologies against the alien's invaders, not humans.
Tony can only agree to it.
Tony – What is your superpower? I am curious for some time after hearing you are not a normal human.
Victor - My superpower is "I am the god of Shadow Universe".
Tony – What are you talking about? You are kidding right.
Victor only smiled.
Tony – Wait, You are telling the truth. Man, what is happening to the world lived. My world had humans. But now is see Vampires, gods, etc. I think I am going insane.
Victor – You don't stress your mind. It is simple there other humans with superpowers. Let starts the training. Let's go out of here. I have arranged a place suitable to get beaten.
Tony – I think I heard the wrong word "Beaten" instead of training from you.
Victor – That the word I said and you heard.
Tony – So, I came to the lion's den as foolish sheep to get eaten thinking it is a grassland.
Victor again smiled but this time about Tony's character.
Both of them walked towards the big hall usually used for martial arts practice and body training. A person was waiting for them.
Lu Qian – Welcome Tony stark.
Victor – He is the one going to teach you. He is a former army general of Meng nation who has killed thousands in battles and even seen death many times. He is the master who is going to train for the next year. He will be put special attention to training your body and senses.
Tony – Thanks for the information.
Victor went to the corner to watch Tony.
Lu Qian – Ready yourself.
Tony – Okay.
Before Tony finished his sentence he was already flying and fell on the sandy floor in the deserts.
Lu Qian – Always be vigilant of your surroundings and enemy. He will not give you chance.
Lu Qian gave his hand for Tony to stand up. Tony only felt flying in the air and again fell to the floor.
Lu Qian – Never trust your enemies.
Tony felt he shouldn't have come here. He felt like he came here to get beaten by his new master. While Lu Qian threw a wooden sword at Tony.
Lu Qian – Attack me without mercy.
Tony attacked him but hesitated he saw Lu Qian has not moved from the place. But Tony felt a sudden pain in his abdomen.
Lu Qian – Never hesitate during a fight. Never show mercy to the enemy. Showing mercy for the enemy is like not showing for yourself. Use every weakness of the enemy to your advantage.
Like that the training session continued until Tony felt he will not be able to move.
After the training session, Victor brought the tired Tony to his room. While he allowed him to step into the tub filled with water. When Tony felt he was in heaven. Victor added something in red color to the water. Tony felt a small pain at first then it started to increase.
Victor – It is good medicine for the body, don't waste it. Everything can only be achieved by pain and hard work. So, try to be in the tub as long you can.
While Victor also helped Tony in absorbing the medicine he added to the water. After half an hour Tony came out of it and had a shower.
Tony felt stronger than before. He wanted to ask what kind of medicine is that.
Victor – This medicine can only help earlier stages of training. But you can use it until it is not effective to you. Don't ask anything regarding the medicine. I also don't know.
