A/N:The entire chapter is from Lucas's POV.
"Hah!Hah!"
Lucas gasped for breath as he struggled to catch up to Alex.
Alex, who was jogging a little but in front of him, stopped and also started to gasp for breath.
"...how the fuck are you so fast?!"
Lucas struggled to speak as he gasped for breath.
These days, both of them had been going on early morning runs as suggested by the sword saint for their training.
Problem was, the run was supposed to be 2 laps around the entire shield campus, which was huge.
On the first day, they both failed horribly, and even now they couldn't do the task, although they were getting closer to their goal.
"... I don't know."
Alex replied half-heartedly, he then sat on the ground and tried to breathe.
Lucas was laying on the ground, and Alex was sitting on it.
The dirt there? They were too tired to think about it.
Their hearts felt like they were going to jump out of their chests any second, and they were covered in sweat.
