"Alright. Give me 5."
Eren said casually. Miranda scrunched her nose before saying.
"Take 20. Take a long hot bath. Come to the guild's duel arena when you are done."
Miranda said and added with a smirk.
"Working out and dueling as a ranker are two different things, Eren. Let's see how much potential you bring out in a serious duel. I'll not go easy on you, you know."
Eren flashed a cunning smile but didn't say anything to her in return. She didn't know that his last life-and-death duel had allowed him to advance into the official rank and claimed three lives in the process. For the most part, he wasn't even an official ranker during that incident.
Rumi had done her job well in keeping Eren out of harm's way. Stan and his friends were just labeled as missing after a while without any alarms getting raised.
After that, Rumi left for her expedition. Leaving Eren to find his own way as a Meta and finding his own ranking path.
