BXBX NOVEL Chapter 341 - Resolves
"By the way, what is your plan for this three months holiday? You can choose to not answer." Kai asked Michelle before leaving as the others seemed to be curious as well. Since he had told them he would train with his teacher, he wanted to know about the others as well.
Of course, there was no force to talk about it. If the others had difficulty to say it, they could simply shake their heads.
Michelle thought for a moment and explained. "I don\'t really have any concrete plans because I don\'t know how long I can master one thing. For now, I have three objectives. The first is to find my new style with weight oriented. Just like Rapakha said, I didn\'t really have a powerful offensive ability, so I want to change that by using dance instead. A dance that would let me continuously use two two-handed swords to pressure my opponent.
"The second objective is to increase my control over my shadow that would allow me to get an advantage even in the day. I mean, you can feel it as well, but my control over my shadow is a bit too weak. If I can have them move like me, my offensive power will increase greatly, especially with the current style that I am pursuing.
"As for the last objective, it\'s still a secret. I don\'t want to say this one." She stuck her tongue out.
Kai smiled and nodded. "Thank you. I wish you luck in this training and see the stronger you after this training."
"Yep, thank you." Michelle smiled and asked. "What about you?"
Kai thought for a while. "I will be following your style, so there are a few objectives that I want to achieve during this training session. First, I want to create new magic to increase my attack power. As you know, my strongest attack is Vibration Sword, but if I miss it, I need to defend against the enemy\'s attack because it is my most vulnerable state. Two swords won\'t cut it this time.
"The second is to beat my teacher. I don\'t have a big hope for this, but I wish to defeat her at least twenty times out of a hundred matches. Yeah, it\'s pretty low, but compared to last time, I should be able to do it. My teacher is also improving by the day, so I don\'t know the result of this training.
"As for my last objective, I simply want to learn more about war and strategy from her, so maybe I will be hopping from one battlefield to another with her to learn this. I don\'t know if it\'s possible to raise my rank, but yeah, that\'s about it." Kai finished his explanation with a smile before looking at Tasha and the others. "How about you guys? Why don\'t we talk about this while we are at it?"
Tasha and the others hesitated for a second before Tasha chose to tell them.
"Unlike both of you, I don\'t have a concrete plan for this. For now, I will be improving my Space Magic and Lightning Magic. Probably, one more lightning magic to increase my attack power. After that, I will probably go to the battlefield for one or two months to increase my strength and see what kind of system the military employs.
"I need to do this because I will be graduating one year earlier than you guys, so I need to adjust my schedule to match this. When you come to the army, I will be your greatest support to the point you don\'t even need to look at your back because I will be the one protecting it." Tasha smiled and gave a thumb up.
"As expected of an elder sister, this is the power, huh." Michelle narrowed her eyes, teasing her.
"Do you want to challenge me, Michelle? I don\'t mind having a one-on-one when we are back to school."
Michelle shrugged. "Instead of fighting, it\'s better to see who can contribute more in the last three missions before your graduation."
"Fair enough. We shall settle our grudge in those three missions." Tasha nodded.
"Good enough for me." She shook Tasha\'s hand while smiling.
"It\'s my turn, or do you want to go first, Evan?" Ayaka asked.
"I will go first then, so I don\'t forget about it." He nodded while taking out his device to take a note. "First of all, I am going to the EU Base for this training to train under a poison expert."
"Wait, you are going to the EU Base?" Sofia gasped before remembering a certain person that was known as a poison expert. "Don\'t tell me, that poison expert in your mouth is madam…"
"Yeah. It\'s her. The president has talked to her, allowing me to study under her tutelage. Of course, the one that planned all of this was Kai\'s teacher, Ria Ross. I can\'t express my gratitude enough for this opportunity since this is a perfect time to explore this new ability of mine. I have heard about the details, so I guess I will be flying with you, Sofia."
"I don\'t really mind. It\'s not like I have a private plane for myself." She shrugged. "Are you going to take your woman with you?"
"No. After talking about this with her, she decided to stay in the base to increase her fighting ability. She wasn\'t sure about this, but she might join the army with her own group to get experiences. So, some of you might find her on the battlefield. When that time comes, please take care of her." Evan bowed his head.
"Don\'t worry. We are like brothers and sisters with Eagle Group." Kai smiled while patting his shoulder.
"Thank you." He nodded. "In addition, I will be increasing my accuracy during this time, and if possible, I want to use two pistols simultaneously."
"That\'s a good plan. How about you, Sofia?" Ayaka asked her first since she wanted to go last.
Sofia hesitated for a second and explained. "I have talked to my father regarding this idea. Although he was quite furious because I will waste three months…Ehm, as you already know about my mission in this base… Anyway, I will be increasing my ice ability since I know that I am a bit behind all of you guys. Don\'t worry, I won\'t be a burden after this.
"For now, I have a few things prepared such as Ice Magician tutor and military instructor. I will pursue both magic and commanding ability. I won\'t let Kai handle everything alone, so I will try to increase my ability as a strategist.
"There is one more thing…" She looked down while scratching the back of her head as if she wanted to do something embarrassing. "I will increase my proficiency in my mimicking ability. I might even become the most beautiful woman and sedu—Ahem, never mind. I was too excited, please forget it."
"…" The others were dumbfounded and looked at Kai, who remained silent.
"Listen to me, Captain. This is coming from the love coach, me, Evan." Evan shook Kai\'s shoulders and gave a thumb up. "Since you are training with your teacher, you should ask more for that medicine that allows you to…Ahem, you know."
Kai twitched his eyebrows and grabbed his hands with his full strength before Evan screamed in pain.
"Ouch, ouch! What are you—" Evan stopped when he saw that Alex was smiling, but that smile was nothing but scary. He fell silent, looked down and apologized. "I am sorry, okay? I won\'t continue and tease you more."
Kai sighed. "Ugh, I can\'t say anything other than…Good Luck?"
Michelle and the girls shrugged as if this was something normal. Tasha decided to be the one saying this piece to him. "Just make sure you don\'t forget that we are sacrificing our heart as well just to accept another person in the family, okay?"
Kai looked down, feeling guilty. Although he didn\'t say he accepted Sofia, he still gave her a chance.
Sofia looked down and remained silent.
Seeing the awkward situation, Ayaka decided to end this with her objective. "First of all, I will finish the two orders first: Tasha\'s Special Explosion Arrow and Evan\'s Explosion Bullet.
"For Tasha, it\'s a bit complicated because we need to understand her lightning principle and make it compatible with my magic as well. This will take a lot of trials and errors. And I think the cost will be a bit high, so we won\'t really produce many of them at once since the specialists will make them by hand.
"Different from her, Evan\'s Explosion Bullets are not that different than the one we have. We can sell the ones we already have, but I guess there is room for improvement, so I will try to form a team to increase their efficiency and other things.
"After that, I will consolidate my power by using heavy-weighted armor all over my body. As Elder Rapakha said, if I fully unleash this potential, my strength won\'t lose to that of Kai with his." Ayaka pumped her fist. "And I will be joining the army if I have the time. The purpose is similar to Sofia\'s."
Kai raised his hand to the stomach\'s level.
The others realized what he wanted to do and put their hands above his hand, stacking up.
"Since we have set our goal, let\'s meet again three months from now and become stronger than ever. It\'s time for the lion to sleep and rest, so we can stand back up again brimming with energy."
"Yay!" They raised their hand and cheered.
After that, they came in the car prepared by Nathan as Kai opened the window and talked to Michelle one last time.
"Before we leave, I want to inform you guys that I will be giving you a big present when all of us have succeeded in training, so make sure you don\'t injure yourself, alright?" Kai smiled, keeping the present mysterious.
Only Sofia knew about this as it was included in their negotiation and knew it was the time to give them.
"Alright, see you later in three months." Kai waved his hand to Michelle as the driver stepped on the gas, slowly leaving the mansion.
