Training

In the gym, Richard is breathing heavily. He looked at the demonic trainer in front him, and said, "Rebecca have some mercy and please leave me." Hearing this, Rebecca tilted her head, and said, "Master, didn't you said, you want to explore the world outside? Didn't you tell me…"

"Yeah, yeah I had said that, but I am not going outside now. I have several year to go outside", he started to argue fiercely. Hearing all this, Rebecca said, "It seems master had recover", hearing this, Richard lied down like deflated balloon. Seeing his antics, she said, "You can rest, after some hour we will start your martial training."

"Martial training? What was that until now?" he asked.

"Oh, currently we are training your body. You see, your body is untrained. For marital artist, healthy and balanced body is must. Like you need certain flexibility, vitality and much more. You already have advantage, in the plane, your body could be changed into whatever desire, but things which are gained for free isn't appreciated much, that's why are training", Rebecca said and left.

However, Richard just took bath, and lied down, thinking of what he have to do.

Few hours later;

Richard is swinging heavy stick, hitting dummies, boxing etc. and finally the time dilation become curse. Nivia created a wooden puppet for sparring, while the gym equipments are transported into the space too, and was imprisoned in the space. The time inside the space can be speeded to thousand time. He spent fifteen days inside, equivalent to the five year, while he fought against Rebecca, as well as several more figures she had faced in past are recreated according to the memory.

After leaving the space, he sneakily left for the market. It is little crowded, he looked at the various stalls.

He took a snack similar to the potato fry, and took a pouch. While travelling, he heard a familiar voice beside him, and looked back. He saw Jeanne surrounded by several boys, who are harassing her.

He followed them, and wanted to interfere, but saw some boys among them, targeting her, with a spell gun. Looking at them, he sighed, and followed them. Soon, among the crowd, he reached the one closest to him, and covered his mouse, while poisoned him with hallucination mist, and slowly started to attacks other.

He manage to wipe out about one third of the force, and left with only fifteen more guys. They turned to the alley, with various turns, and taking advantage of that, he attacked several more.

"Where are the others?" one of the lackey suddenly asked, seeing no one following him. He took the turn to look only to saw, Richard hitting the boy with blonde hair, before it fall. He was completely shocked, and couldn't even react, when he was hit by the hallucination poison.

"Hey Garry, what happened to…" one of the lackey what towards him, to talk with him, when he felt unusualness, and before he could even react, something fall on top of him.

"Who are you?" asked the boy in Red hair, while holding Jeanne tightly. However before they could react, Richard dashed towards them, and started fighting. Within ten second all of lackeys are fall unconscious.

"Who the hell are you? Do you know who am I?" shouted the boy. But before he could even say anything more, he heard Jeanne, "Richard"

"You are with her", he asked while hugging her. "So that's why you took such a risk, Huh. Listen, I am Elite student recruited by the A…", before he could even answer, a hand already hold his one hand, twisting at his back, while other one is forcefully pulled freeing the Jeanne, from his clutches.

"Release me. I say release me, before it is already too late, otherwise…" but before he could even answer, he saw several Police officers rushing in. They surrounded them, seeing them, he released the thug.

"Sir, we would like you come along with us", said the officers. Hearing this, thug immediately hugged the officer's thigh, and said, "Officer, I am Larry Johnson, third son of Duke Rupert. Please arrest this bastard for attacking nobility."

However, contrary to his expectation, he is cuffed, while the senior officer, reached Richard said, "Sir, we would need your statement for further actions."

He nodded, and cover the Jeanne with the coat, and supported her to police station. He looked at the Larry, who is dragged to the police van, and asked, "Are you sure, you want to offend Duke Rupert?"

"Sir, you are student of Elite section of Academy, and your status is much higher then some Duke of lower plane", Officer James said respectfully. When he reached police station, Rebecca and Warden Williams was already there.

He showed them the recording, which he recorded earlier, along with all the conversation, and said, "Jeanne and her brother helped me a lot when I was young, they are like sibling to me. So I request you to investigate the case fairly", hearing his request, James sighed in relief. If Richard wanted to exploit his power, then case could have been little tricky, but now, he is relatively free.

Outside the Police station, Warden looked at Richard, and said, "Although what you did is morally correct, but I would recommend not to do this in future. In the academy, everyone is responsible for their own, so if they want to resist tyranny, they have to stand themselves. Also, before twelve, you can't bring girlfriend to your room, but group study is allowed, but you have to wait until the academy starts."

Hearing his statement, Richard first got confused a little, then his entire face was bright red, and same could be said for Jeanne. He looked at her, and then avoided her face, and said, "Rebecca, could you leave her to her quarter. I …. uh… I am on the way to my room, so hurry up", and then he dashed to the Police stations gate.
