Training

"What do you mean 'show' me?" Arthur asked to which Yosel simply pointed his palm forward and cast a spell of his own which created similar looking clothing that dropped from Arthur's height towards the ground. They instantly broke through the house's floor and began to sink inside the ground of the island. Yosel had to pull them out of there and help Arthur take off his shirt then place the new one on top of him. Although it was a bit heavier than the shirt he was wearing previously, Arthur believed that he could adjust to the new shirt relatively quickly.

Next, Arthur took his pants off to which he revealed that he was wearing regular black shorts which he wore his new grey pants on top of.

"So is this the next level into my training? This seems a bit lighter though don't you think?" Arthur asked to which Yosel simply let out a slight laugh.

"Arthur, take a guess as to how much these new clothes weigh," Yosel told his student to which Arthur looked confused but still took a guess.

"I would say maybe 225 or at max 250 pounds each. This is seriously light," said Arthur to which Yosel looked like he was going to cry from being so proud.

"You see Arthur, each article of clothing you're wearing weighs 500 pounds. That means in total, you're carrying around 1000 pounds of pure weight with you when you walk," Yosel explained to which Arthur was left dumbfounded. He couldn't believe what he had just heard. 1000 pounds could be 10 people all at once that he was dragging around. Although they would be quite skinny, they were still people.

"Having you around is quite fun I must say. Still though, I need your progress to get much more rapid so let's increase the weight to 2000 pounds on each article and see how you hold out," said Yosel to which Arthur simply smirked which he would regret very soon.

Yosel once again placed his palm forward however he was not going to create a whole new pair of clothes as it was getting repetitive. Instead, Yosel decided to use a magic spell to increase the weight that was already on Arthur.

"Wait, you can just increase the weight?-" Arthur began to speak before quickly getting cut off as his legs failed to hold him up and he was forced to fall on the ground. Although he was surprised at what had just happened, he began to try to get back up from the ground to no avail.

"Hmm, this is quite interesting. It seems you've gotten more powerful than I originally wanted you to be. I guess I'll have to make this a bit harder than before.

"Tier 6 Spell: Reinforce"

Using this spell, Yosel made it so that the ground on the island would not sink once Arthur's weight was once again increased.

Using the same spell that he had used to increase Arthur's clothes' weight, Yosel repeated this step once again to which Arthur began to feel sick and instantly passed out in just 10 seconds as his body was getting crushed completely.

However in about a couple hours he would wake up to Yosel standing in front of him with seemingly no concern on his face.

"Oh you're finally awake, good. I've been meaning to tell you this all day but I've placed a total of 5000 pounds on each article of clothing that you are wearing. All I have to say to you is good luck and if you somehow manage to get this task done in a week, I'll allow you to use you new found strength to see how far you've come," said Yosel to which Arthur gave a tired nod before almost passing out again however, Yosel stopped his head from moving forward and crashing back to the ground.

"Lastly, once you're done moving around in the clothing, you can start looking for me. This is going to be harder than the last task so I wish you luck," said Yosel and at that exact moment, Arthur once again passed out which allowed Yosel to hide.

Meanwhile in the regular world, specifically at the school that Arthur used to attend.

"Did you hear the news? A whole city was erased off the face of the planet in just a simple second. No one even saw it coming. The only report was that a meteor came from space and landed right in the middle of the city which wiped it off the face of the planet," said Leon with a rather concerned face.

"First Arthur and now this-" someone began to speak before Leon got quite angry with them for bringing up the name of the person that humiliated him.

"Look there's no need for you to be so scared. He's dead now, he can't harm you," said Leon's friend before Leon went on a rampage.

"I was never afraid of him! I only wanted to recover faster so that I could get the chance to absolutely mop the floor with him," said Leon before getting back to their main topic.

"But seriously Leon, what do you think about the theories out there about what happened to Sandra City? I mean people are saying a single sorcerer was responsible for wiping out the entire city however he's most likely very old due to his immense strength which means that he's not a threat to anyone. So don't you think they shouldn't label the one who caused the damage a villain? I mean I understand that he destroyed a city but he's just an old man. What harm could someone so old cause?" Leon's friend asked to which Leon would reply with something wise for once.

"You're letting your own personal feelings get in the way of your judgement. Don't let emotions cloud your sense of judgement. A crime is still a crime, no matter who committed it. All that matters is that the criminal serves their time in prison. As long as that happens, there's nothing for you to worry about," said Leon which caught his friends by surprise.
