Chapter 8 - MEETING

GATHERED10:55AM

PERSIL, IZURI AND HIMAWARI ARE HEADING TO THE NEW ROOM WHERE THE NEW CLASS WILL BE HELD.

"And you are strong, Himawari, you want to fight with me, let's train for a while" - Izuri asked excitedly.

"You're a dibilicho, you're just a 'C' rank and you want to fight with me, tsk', it would be obvious the result" - replied Himawari despising Izuri.

"Heh, what do you think, come and try it! - Izuri shouted angrily.

10:35AM

While Persil, Izuri and Himawari were heading towards the hall where Master Nito would meet, Kenji found himself lost in the corridors of the temple baths. Despite his initial enthusiasm to find Himawari, his excitement led him down the wrong path, plunging him into a maze of narrow, dark corridors.

After going around and around, Kenji finally admitted that he was completely lost.

"How could I have ended up here?" he muttered to himself as he desperately searched for a way out.

The corridors of the temple seemed to play with his perception, and each turn took him deeper into confusion.

Kenji sensing that he was trapped, concentrated his energy into his right fist so that he could break through a wall and get out of the place, and so it was that Kenji was able to get out of the place and he ran away wildly.

10:55AM

Meanwhile, Persil was leading the way to the hall with determination, followed closely by Izuri and Himawari. The conversation between them was light but full of anticipation for what awaited them in the new class. Persil, with her calm but determined aura, conveyed confidence to her classmates as they moved towards their destination.

11:24AM

Finally, after crossing several courtyards of the temple, they arrived at the main hall where they would be greeted by the lord and Mitao....

The hall was majestic, with high ceilings and walls adorned with ancient symbols of power and wisdom.

As they entered the hall, they were greeted by the piercing gaze of Lord Mitao, he himself was wearing his glasses and bracelets on his right arm.

"Hey, what are you doing here? - Persil asked Lord Mitao.

"Mh?, I will be your Master together with Master Nito, but he is not here" - Lord Mitao answered."

"He is still outside? - Persil said.

"That's right," said Mr. Mitao as he directed his hand to his glasses to adjust them.

. . .

While Mr. Mitao adjusted his glasses, Persil, Izuri and Himawari prepared to receive instructions. The atmosphere in the room was charged with anticipation and respect, knowing that they were about to begin a new chapter in their training.

Lord Mitao, with his imposing presence, began to speak.

"Hey you, come closer!" - Said Lord Nito with a deep voice and imposing authority.

"His energy is too little, why was he requested for this class" - Lord Mitao thought.

"Yes, sir" - Izuri answered.

IZURI WENT TO WHERE MR. MITAO WAS...

WHEN IZURI WAS IN FRONT OF MR. MITAO, MITAO THROWS A PUNCH AT FULL SPEED TO THE STOMACH OF IZURI...

IZURI WHO WAS WITH CONFIDENCE BUT HE MANAGES TO REACT IN TIME AND MANAGES TO DODGE THE PUNCH DISORIENTING THE FIST OF MITAO WITH HIS HANDS.

"What are you doing!" - Izuri shouted without knowing what happened while jumping backwards.

"Tsk, how did he manage to dodge my punch if he seems to be a low rank guy" - Lord Mitao thought.

After Izuri dodges Lord Mitao's blow, the tension in the air becomes palpable. Mitao, surprised by Izuri's agility despite his apparent level, reevaluates his strategy.

Mitao, with an intense look and a grimace of frustration, rethinks his approach. He recognizes Izuri's skill and adjusts his stance, preparing for a more serious confrontation.

Meanwhile, Izuri, with alert senses, assesses the situation. Knowing that he has managed to evade Lord Mitao's initial blow, he prepares to defend himself or counterattack if necessary....

Just as Lord Mitao counterattacks, Persil intervenes, who had come running along with Himawari who were outside the hall.

"What's going on Lord Mitao, why are they fighting" - shouted Persil confused for not knowing the reason of the fight.

Lord Mitao stops being on guard and relaxes and says:

"No, nothing is happening" - While smiling and holding his hands to his head.

"What's this about, you hit me on purpose!" - Izuri said angrily.

"I was just testing your ability, as you give off a very low energy" - Replied Lord Mitao.

"He can control his energy, there moments he gets to make a "Mantra" of "S" rank... or even higher. - Persil said shouting.

"I see" - Said Lord Mitao bringing his hands to his glasses.

Izuri, still breathing heavily from the tension of the moment, stared at Lord Mitao.

Lord Mitao calmly and serenely answered Persil's question, denying that there was any real conflict between him and Izuri.
