"I got into a fight with some boys, do you know a boy named Matt"
"Yes, you got into a fight with him?"
"Yes, and both of us woke up in the medical center this morning and from there I went to training," Ray smiled as he told her.
"You both got into a fight andnded in the medical center, what happened?" Cynthia giggled slightly as she asked.
She was surprised that Ray fought with a boy from the second year and they both went to the hospital, which means the fight was intense.
"At night I was going back to the dorm and they stopped me, maybe they were on patrol or so, but they stopped me and we got into a fight, he was a strong opponent but I hate bullies so I fought back," Ray said with a smirk on his face.
"Boys...you should stay clear of all upper-ss students, not all of them are friendly to first-year students"
"I know" Ray smiled as he ate.
After a while Cynthia returned to the kitchen while Ray went to his room, the dorm was still empty as everyone was busy with training so he went straight to the bathroom.
Ray took off his clothes and pour the warm water on his body, the bathroom was constructed like a normal room but water fountains were at both ends of the room giving the students ess to water.
Since Ray entered the knight academy, the water has never run dry, which means they were being reced.
After bathing Ray started training, he still couldn''t remember how to draw the magic circle so he stuck with the training he knew.
Ray wore only his pants and trained in his room, he didn''t want his shirt to get stained from sweat.
''Tomorrow I''ll use every opportunity I have wisely, I hope wee across a beast so I can gain more Exp points, and learn how to draw Mana''
''As soon as the training is over I''m going to tell Lily that we can''t go out tomorrow, I still haven''t told her about my magic training, and the senior knights didn''t say anything about telling others, but still I''m not going to tell anyone, not everyone needs to know what I do''
"58...59...60...Arghhh" Ray fell on his chest as he tried to struggle.
He was currently doing sit-ups and his current capacity was 60, after the 60th time his hands gave out immediately, Ray sat down on the ground and rest his back on the wall.
He was breathing heavily and sweating profusely, he needs to get his hands back in shape and he didn''t have enough time.
Ray knew that Draco was going to attack the academy after what Selena said, so he didn''t have time tozy around, he had to use every second for training and get his hands in order.
Draco was not someone he could defeat with magic alone, and even if Ray wanted to defeat Draco with magic he didn''t have any high-level killer spell that he could use.
''After the training, I''m going to ask Selena to teach me something badass, she''s the head of the mage academy so I''m sure she can teach me something, and I also need to learn to control my Ki''
''Back then when we were fighting that Ice beast, Authur''s sword med for a few seconds and I can''t even get my sword hot, I need training and more training'' Ray sighed heavily and stood up immediately.
"1...2...3...4"
He started with his sit-ups from the beginning even though his hands were slightly shaking.
...
"Did you have any idea where Ray went?"
"No...I haven''t seen him, I thought you guys knew" Lily said to Ivan.
"He didn''te backst night, and he didn''t attend training today, where the hell could he be"
The swords ss training was finally over and Ivan and Leia were returning to their room. Ivan opened the door and was surprised to see a shirtless personying on the floor.
Ray looked up and saw Ivan and Leia, he inhaled sharply before pushing himself up.
"Why were you on the ground?" Ivan asked him.
"I couldn''t stand up, how was training today?" Ray asked Ivan and looked over to Leia, Leia was staring at him but not his face, Ray looked down and saw her eyes on his body.
"Leia are you okay?" Ray said.
"Leia, what''s wrong?"
"Huh!...what, why are both of you staring at me like that"
"You spaced out just now, is something wrong?"
"No, I''m just tired" Leia replied.
''What is wrong with me, why was I staring at Ray''s body and wishing I could touch it, I know I have a crush on Ray but I can''t possibly want him to...argh, I can''t even think about it'' Leia said inwardly.
"Where were you and why didn''t youe backst night?" Ivan asked.
"Have you guys evere across an upper-ss student?"
"No what''s wrong, did you get into a fight"
"Bingo...I was on my way and some boys stopped me and just like that they punched me, so I knocked out the one that punched me and I fell unconscious while the other two got away" Ray didn''t exin all the details.
"So throughout the night you were unconscious...where?"
"In the medical center, then I woke up this morning, and after eating I came here"
"So you fought an upper-ss student and knocked him out, won''t he be angry with you?" Ivan asked with concern.
"Don''t worry we resolved the issue, and even if we didn''t he wouldn''t have the guts toe after me" Ray smiled as he remembered how terrified the boys were when they saw the dark cloak covering his body.
"Okay...I hope you don''te across them again" Ivan said and climbed up to his bed, Ivan sighed heavily afterying down.
Ivan and Leia were very tired so Ray guessed they had another intense training session after the mini-tournament was over.

"How are the preparation going?"
"They are going fine, knights have been stationed at every point in the academy, every blind spot have been covered" Alfred said.
"What about the scroll?" Authur asked.
"We have it here in the academy...but is it a good idea to bring it here?" James asked.
"The is the safest ce for the scroll, and if they actually attack the students would be safe, we have the underground basement so there''s no need to worry"
"Okay, then we should start preparations for the uing tournament" Alfred spoke.
The door to their room opened and ady walked in, Selena came to the knew room so she could ask for permission to take Ray outside.
"Hello" she said.
"Hello, how is the training going?" Authur asked.
"It''s going well, and I came here for the same reason, i need to take him outside of the city so we can train" Selena said.
"Outside the city...why?" Alfred said immediately.
"The training require a forest, so we need to go outside, he would be under my protection so no harm woulde to him"
"I can''t allow that" Authur spoke with a stern voice.
"What!! I have the courtesy to ask for your permission and you are telling me off" Selena shouted.
"Who are you to speak to is in that manner" Alfred shouted.
"Authur!! tell him to pipe down before I run a hand through his skull" Selena shouted.
"Huh! wait...Selena!!"
