10 Chapter 10 Training begins

As I woke up the following day most of our items were gone tables chairs clothes. The only thing left was my training outfit that was set right next to my bed. It was basic leather armor that was comfortable to move around in and not too heavy. After getting dressed, I put my hair up into a ponytail to ensure it would not get in the way.

Once I was dressed I approached my father. "Daddy I am ready to go but where is all our stuff?" I continued to look around my eyes filled with confusion.

He chuckled before rubbing my head and pointing to a ring on his hand." It's a storage ring. You just put it on your finger and think about what's inside and it will show you and you can pull out whatever you want. Wanna try it?"

My eyes lit up and I quickly nodded my head and put my hand out so he could put the ring on my finger. "I wanna see. This is so cool!" I started bouncing and closed my eyes trying to focus on the ring. I started to frown. "Daddy, I don't see anything. Is it broken?"

His thunderous laughter rang in my ear. "I can't believe you fell for that princess. Do you really believe everything could fit into a ring? Don't be so silly. Magic can do a lot but not make a ring hold items."

I pouted and glared at him and started punching his chest. "Meanie I hate you Daddy is such a big stinky jerk!" He kept laughing and extended one of his hands against my forehead to prevent me from reaching him with my mighty ferocious claws. But he did not expect my sneak attack. I opened my mouth and bit his hand. "You even taste like a jerk… So where is our stuff at?"

My father laughed a little more before giving me a hug and whipping my saliva off his hand. "It's a basic spell that everyone should know." He snapped his fingers and a door appeared right next to him and he slowly opened the door.

My eyes widened in shock as I looked inside to see a whole giant world. I saw trees birds animals and heard people laughing in the distance. But it was not as amazing as the giant castle that looked like it would pierce the heavens. "Woah… What kind of spell is this and it is a basic spell?"

He nodded before shutting the door. "It is elementary at best. All you do is condense your magic in your core until it bursts with a magical explosion creating a bang of elements creating a universe and galaxy inside of you, and then you use the elements to shape the worlds and planets how you like. Then just create a door to go inside build a house or whatnot and then set the laws of the worlds."

My face sank. How much mana does that take to do? It must not be much if it is an elementary spell."

My father thought for a minute trying to think of the quantity. "Hmm, it takes about 20 million mana or a proper device to funnel the world's mana into your body" The more he spoke the more ridiculous it sounded. Is his worldview skewed?

I shook my head and grabbed my father's hand and we took our first step on our journey for my growth. We traveled for a couple miles and I was already panting and sweating. Not having my stats sucked.

I thought of the system quests and looked at the cobwebs that gathered on that part of the system.

[Quest:100 push up 100 sit-ups run 1 kilometer

Reward:+1 strength +1 dexterity.]

I sighed I let my father know I wanted to do some exercises and began with the running. 30 minutes later I finally finished drenched in sweat. Before my body recovered completely I dropped to the ground and started my push-ups and sit-ups. I was drenched from head to toe and wanted to close my eyes. It was already 3 in the evening by the time I finished everything I wanted.

[Quest completed distributing rewards. Warning warning intense killing intent detected emergency quest initiated.

Quest: Survive 5 minutes Reward: System shop]

As I was reading the quest I got confused and before I could look around my hand got shot by an arrow causing me to cry out and jump to my feet causing the next arrow to barely miss sinking into my flesh but still cause a bloody gash to open up on my leg. I panicked and limped behind a tree as fast as I could before shouting" Daddy!! Help we are being attacked. Where are you?!"

I broke the end of the arrow before pulling it out blood dripping onto the grass below me. Think it came from the south so if I stay alert I can hear them move and keep a tree between us until my father gets here and teaches that jerk a lesson. As I listened intently trying to find any sort of sound rustling of leaves or gaps in the wind blowing.

It was way too quiet so I poked my head out to try and get a look for the assailant. I saw nothing but I heard the wind whistle so I pulled my head back thinking they were aiming for there but was surprised as a bigger arrow pierced my shoulder and out my shoulder blade pinning me to the tree.

I let out a loud scream as I looked at the arrow in my shoulder covered in barbs. No matter how I pulled it out it would pull out chunks of flesh. Stealing my resolve I lifted my right leg putting it against the tree trunk before kicking off with all my force the arrow staging lodged in the tree leaving behind a bunch of flesh. There was a hole about an inch in my shoulder and it was dripping black blood.

Panting I took off again listening for the whistle that would be another arrow inside of me. God this hurts like hell what's taking daddy so long to get here. Suddenly I heard a whistle and I dived managing to dodge another one by a hair. "Ha you shoot like a weakling" I chuckled nervously taunting my assailant trying to give myself courage.

I made it back up to my feet before another whistle sounded. This time it was 2 arrows. This is so not fair. I managed to dodge one and raise my hand to try and stop the other arrow from hitting me. Unluckily it pierced my palm with enough force to pin my hand into my chest.

[System: Emergency quest failed]

Failed? I am still alive. Was that arrow poisoned? I started crying hard. "Daddy help. Where are you!"

Suddenly I saw the archer coming towards me with slow steps and I felt anger bubbling in my heart my eyes turning red." What is your problem why did you do this to me" I shouted wanting to tear the man in front of me into pieces for the injuries that he gave me.

"Your training begins now princess I love you and I'm sorry.' With that, my father's fist crashed into my gut knocking the air out of my lungs causing me to vomit and pass out.
