Keitaro walked out of his room and headed towards the bathroom.
Upon arriving in the bathroom, Keitaro took a thorough bath.
He made sure that every place in his body was thoroughly clean, not leaving a single place dirty and unclean.
He had spent a full week not taking a full shower, all he had done was clean himself using wipes.
While it did get the job done and made sure he didnt start stinking of herbs and stopped himself from looking like a hobo.
He much prefers taking a much-needed hot bath.
There was something about how the water would touch his skin or how he could feel every single muscle in his body relax as he started scrubbing his body.
He made sure to wash away all the dirt on his body, he used the shampoo that was available in the bathroom.
As he was about to pour the shampoo on his head, he hesitated for a moment.
'on second thought, I rather use my own' Keitaro thought to himself as he placed the shampoo back where he had found it.
The second he did so, another shampoo bottle appeared in his hand.
"My ability sure is convenient"
As those words left his mouth, Keitaro started using his shampoo to thoroughly wash his hair.
He wanted to make sure that no dirt was left in there, he wanted his hair to stay clean like they always were.
The sound of the water coming from the shower head could be heard, meanwhile, a copious amount of shampoo could be seen on the floor, it seemed as if Keitaro was using a very large amount of it to clean his hair.
For someone who was all about efficiency, Keitaro sure did use a lot of shampoo on his hair.
After properly bathing for the first time in 7 days, Keitaro made sure to dry himself properly with the tower in order to speed up his drying session.
He tapped into the power of sage mode and used Akane's fire ability, he made sure to control it to such a level so that the fire just felt like hot hair that helped dry him up in seconds.
The second Keitaro was done with all of that, he decided to dress himself up, making sure to put on his usual attire for this fine day.
Pov change.
Keitaro walked inside the training room, his eyes landed on Edgar, Keitaro could see the changes as soon as he came in.
Edgar's blade was glowing a bright blue color as he held it in his hand, the boy gritted his teeth a bit as he rushed toward the Keitaro clone.
Edgar swung his blade toward the clone's torso, however, the clone managed to masterfully dodge the boy's strike.
The clone then proceeded to kick the boy hard in the gut sending him flying away.
Edgar did a backflip while still being in the air, using his construction curse technique on the liquid metal in his pocket to form a wall behind him, Using this wall Edgar was able to push off it to rush toward the clone.
Keitaro watched as what what seemed to be two swords were launched at the clone's back just as Edgar swung his sword at the clone sending what seemed to be a huge amount of build-up curse energy toward the clone.
The clone jumped in the air in order to avoid being hit by any of those attacks only to be met by what seemed to be several daggers that were on the ceiling.
'He has gotten better with the construction curse technique'
Keitaro observed as Edgar continued to try and outsmart the clone and make sure it was on the back foot.
It was quite fun watching the boy's strategic mind develop with each swing of the sword.
Keitaro watched as the clone used the dagger being thrown at him as a foothold in order to jump toward Edgar and in one swift motion, Edgar was now laying on his ass as the clone tanto was mear inches from his throat.
Keitaro clapped his hand as the clone vanished.
The young boy was still seen panting on the floor.
"You did great!"
Keitaro helped the boy to his feet.
"He was so strong!" Edgar added as he remembered the way that the clone was dog-walking him.
"I felt like no matter what I did he would always come up on top, i guess that was to be expected from a sensei clone"
"I made this clone with your level in mind" Keitaro explained while looking at his student.
"What do you mean by that?" Edgar questioned looking at his teacher.
"Well this clone was exactly your level, down to the curse energy amount, I even made sure your and his physical strength were about the same"
"Then...why couldn't I hit him...at all?"
"Well for one, he may have been at your level but his skills were way above your own, his control over his curse energy amount was above yours and his strategic mind was also above you"
Keitaro then walked toward the boy before flicking his forehead saying.
"So now do you see why good control over your curse energy is important!"
