The macho, musclebound instructor's target was none other than the top of the first year cadet, the mysterious Ceres herself.
'Actually, taking in the other factors concerning Derrick, this shouldn't be too surprising...' Derrick was known as a loud, and hot blooded instructor in charge of the first year general combat lessons.
From what I've heard, and what I was currently experiencing, he can be a lot impulsive at times, and feral. It actually was quite normal for him to soar with his students.
The strongest of them.
Ceres who was not only the top ranked of our class, but was also a Hero Rank Ascended at the age of only 16 was a rare talent. And this was without considering what her possible talent evaluation was since I had no Idea of knowing.
In any case, Derrick set up this whole process just so he could gauge blows against Ceres for a short while and test her skills.
