Ray pretended like he had been expecting the 2 uninvited guests who were the ones he made sure he never got involved with at school and would do everything in his power to avoid them and they were at his doorstep and what could a handsome gentleman like him do other than smile and let these two femme fatales whose beauty was comparable to Naina of the vermillion birds but not to Sylvia for now but they were still beautiful. The two ladies were namely Lilian Sevour and Xue Moyan who were wearing pretty impressive combat wear with shorts that were really tight and would reveal their cleavage though they were a bit long they could not hide the beauty and irresistible charm that they possessed. The one with brown eyes and skin that was as pale as the moon with a thin body and blonde hair while the other who was even worse, the mysterious Xue Moyan who had jet black hair and brown chocolate skin and blessed with a thin frame too. Ray could not do anything against them because they were his guests, his very uninvited guests. 'Hi Ray..... . 'Whoaa you are bleeding ', Lilian said as she held his hands in a gentle manner feeling his pain even though her knuckles were not bruised and neither were her hands bleeding profusely. This touched his heart making him feel dazed as he gazed at the girl who was clutching his two hands.
The chocolate skinned Xue Moyan had a neutral expression as she said 'So you have already started training haven't you, how good but not impressive', she said as she walked past him. 'Where are you going? Ray got out of Lilian's hold and reached for Moyan's hand. 'I am going to the training room because l came here to train for the upcoming competition', she said . 'But how do you know where the training room is? Did you use some kind of foresight ability or something? his eyebrows twitched as he looked at her in a defensive posture and focused on controlling the kind of profane thoughts that were trying to affect him. 'No way she can't see or discern what l am thinking', Ray thought to himself as he started controlling his thoughts and tried to make sure that his mind was stable and clean from any kind of corruption due to pervesion. [Oh please Host thou art filthy in thine true self, an abomination, a wretched being, an abhorrent and despicable conniving bastard truly your hypocrisy knows no bounds because you are a man full of evil] he heard a deep voice that was like the bellowing of the tempestuous wind over the oceans in his soul which made him shriek making the two young women look weirdly at him. He felt like cursing this parasite but he chose to ignore it and said to the two 'Oh the training room is there', he pointed his finger at a certain door that was imprinted 'TRAINING ROOM' in a bold case embarrassedly. He had forgotten about that
. 'We kind of knew it since there are letters imprinted on that door obvious', Lilian said as she looked at him with a pleasant smile that took his breath away. He felt awkward because he had suspected Xue Moyan of using some kind of weird ability that she had in her arsenal but that was not it, the room was opposite his bedroom in a house that had six rooms it was not difficult to explore especially if that specific room's door was written. Before he could say anything he heard the screeching of tyres outside and he did not need to think twice about what kind of devil, god forsaken evil had come in the name of a comrade. It was none other than Austin. The bell rang when Austin moved his hand toward the button that would alarm Ray that someone wanted to see him but before his finger had made physical contact with it the door was opened by Ray who had the greatest benevolent smile on his face which was all a mask but Austin ignored it even if he felt a little bit creeped out he acted like he had not seen the l and greeted the two beautiful ladies and thanked them for tagging along which made Ray pissed off even more. 'No pain no gain pal, you lose some and you get some he said as he looked at the guy's bloodied hands. 'Genova wood acquired from number sixth tree in the world, how great', Lilian said as she looked at the many dummies in the store room . 'It seems like this wood has a complex pattern, a structure that is different from the other Genova wood because they have energy that makes each dummy different from the other. How remarkable. 'Who made? this Moyan asked. 'Oh it was my uncle who made it, he knew a bit of carpentry hence he had an idea concerning how to create a dummy containing vast amounts of energy that was stored in each and every one of them making each of them more incredible than the other since their power patterns differ from each dummy because of the wood's age, fueling it with his own' ,he said with a hint of sadness. 'Sorry about your uncle', Moyan said. Lilian got to a dummy that had a thin frame and she got into action andstarted punching a dummy with a powerful fist making it move a bit shocking Ray who almost fainted but he held himself. Austin went to a different dummy and he hurled his fist and with each punch a shockwave was created and would make the dummy move and his were more stronger while Moyan's punches were different because they were neither strong nor weak but were in between but still they would make it tremble. Ray found this funny because while all of them were making the dummy move two to five, to ten centimetres apart he had not. His red dyed bandaged hand and feet felt the surge, the surge to make them move and he started doing what he wanted to do.
He punched the Genova wood again and again but it was to no avail. He looked to his side and saw the other three who were wearing bandages also, with every hit made the dummy move as they channelled their energy on it's vital points. Seeing this Ray was not only awestruck but he was moved because these three were making unhindered progress when they struck the dummy. With each punch there was a force carried within it and it was not an ordinary one. 'He saw sweat starting to form not only on Lilian but on Moyan and Austin too and all their knuckles had a crimson colour now because of what they were doing but they were not paying attention to the pain but Ray was starting to pay attention to his body aching, his bones breaking and he felt like his will had shattered as he looked at the dummy with a helpless look. He remained in one position as he looked at the dummy for five good minutes while thinking why he was weak. Amidst all of this he remembered the saying 'An indomitable will can asunder anything, even the boundless heavens prostrate in front of one's unshattered resolve'. Sensei Antoinne Ichigo once said these wise words to him hence under their influence he clenched his fist ignoring all of the pain and with one punch 'Boom', an unquenched fire to get stronger erupted within his heart.
