Chapter 11 - Practice is not A Trash

Today is a hell for a day. Today lesson are defends and attacks, but in the beginning we must run 50 laps, imagine you run under the burning sun 12 PM. Ugh..., it's tiring me off! But, I have to do it because I have to reach my freedom from mafia.

"Ryuko, you are too stiff!"

"Ryuko, don't defend like you playing baseball!"

"Ryuko, hold the sword firmly."

Everyone laugh at me because I am the only one who still not finish the training. Sir Dominic come to me, I know he gonna angry to me. He taps my left shoulder.

"Ryuko, sometime hearing is better than seeing with your eyes. Your power when you see is really big different because you can't focus."

"Yes, sir!"

"Try again."

We are practicing until night.

"Sir, why do you know that I can't focus?"

"Before in conclusion, is your red eye is your normal eye or only lens?"

"It's real."

"So, what can you see with it?"

"..."

Well, he is right. This is actually what happen in practice...

=Flashback to 12 PM=

Someone wants to attack Sir Dominic! I grip my sword as tight as possible but...

TWACK!

"Ryuko, you are too stiff!"

"Ryuko, don't defend like you playing baseball!"

I am tired of this bullshit... who is this guy!?!

TWACKKKK...

"Ryuko, hold the sword firmly."

=Back to normal=

"I see someone who wants to attack you."

"But there is no one..."

"Yeah..., right."

"..., I only can give you my opinion about your sword. Don't be afraid! Hold a sword like you live with it. Listen and know your surrounding. What do you see sometime can deceive you. Sword is not always violence, it also defend you and you only can draw it when it's the right time. Don't use it carelessly. Understand?"

"Yes, sir!"

"Finally you're done, Ryuko!"

"Jeff, just go back to your room now."

"Well, when I saw you practice..."

Jeff grab my collar tightly, I can see his eyes like he don't want to lose every single battle.

"That's why I want you to go to sleep."

"Ha...hahahahahaha..., fine by me than. 3 years later, try to beat me and get to the top 5." Jeff loose the grip and leave me alone in the corridor.

"Yeah, right. Be wise and don't do reckless thing."
