Chapter 28 - CHAPTER 28:THE TRAINING BEGINS

Gus nodded, a sense of determination in his voice. "Alright, let's get started. Arcadian, take Buveur and train him in the ways of combat. Jack will train Breaton in the art of ninjutsu. We have one month to prepare for the rescue mission."

Arcadian nodded, a hint of a smile on his face. "I'll take Buveur and push him to his limits. Let's see what he's capable of."

Buveur grinned, a spark of excitement in his eyes. "Bring it on, Arcadian. I'm ready to unleash my true potential."

Meanwhile, Jack, the ninja, stood before Breaton, his eyes assessing the young man. "So, you're the one who's going to rescue Merry? Let's see what you're made of. But first, tell me who Merry Winco is and what she means to you."

Breaton's face turned hard as he responded, "She is very dear to me, and I will stop at nothing to get her back."

Jack sneered, "Let's see if your bark matches your bite."

Before we start, you should know the three ranks of ninja. The first is Genin, the low rank, the second is Chūnin, the middle rank, and the third is known as Jōnin, they are the top rank.

Jack said, then he reached into his pocket and pulled out two black bracelets, placing them on Breaton's wrists.

"What are these? They feel so heavy," Breaton said with a frown.

"Those are training weights, used to suppress your demonic power, allowing you to train without using your demon abilities," Jack explained. "Usually, it takes about four to five years to reach the Genin stage, but you only have a month. That is not enough time, however. I have a room that can condense a year's worth of training into a week."

"That sounds cool, but I've got to say, this room sounds very familiar to me. I just can't remember where I heard about it," Breaton said, confused.

"You might have heard something similar from DBZ - one year's training in a day. My room is actually based on a similar concept, but it's not the same. Fun fact: I did get inspiration from that idea," Jack said with a smile.

"When you train with me in this room, you'll be able to train for a year, and when you're done, only a week will have passed in the real world. You'll train with me for four weeks in the room, which will be equivalent to four years of training in the real world," Jack explained.

Breaton's eyes widened in amazement. "That's incredible. I'll be able to gain four years' worth of training in just four weeks."

Jack nodded. "Yes, that's correct. But keep in mind that the training will be intense, and you'll need to push yourself to your limits if you want to see any real progress."

Breaton nodded, determination in his eyes. "I'm ready. Let's do this."

Meanwhile, in Fi-Six's mansion, in one of the chamber, Ket Shi Kong sneered at Merry's bound form. "You'll never escape," she taunted. "And soon, you'll be just another pawn in the game of power."

Merry's eyes flashed with defiance, but she remained silent, her mind racing with plans of escape and revenge.

"What's this? You have a look of defiance on your face? Aren't you afraid of me and what I can do to you?" Ket Shi Kong asked with a sneer.

"You don't scare me, you old rotten bitch. Do your worst," Merry spat.

Without a moment's hesitation, Ket Shi Kong slapped Merry across the face.

Leann and Bella rushed forward to protect Merry, but they were subdued by Varxxus.

"Varxxus, what are you doing? Why are you stopping us from protecting Miss Merry?" Bella asked.

"Oh, shut up! I am Lady Ket Shi Kong's bodyguard. You were about to attack her. I couldn't allow that, could I?" Varxxus said with a sneer.

"Oh, is that so?" Fi-Six's voice was cold and menacing. "Varxxus, you can die now."

With a swift motion, Fi-Six used his tail to pierce Varxxus's heart. Varxxus's body went limp, and he fell to the ground.

Fi-Six walked over to Merry, his eyes bloodshot with rage. He untied her bindings and gently turned her face to examine her injuries. Her jaw was swollen, and blood was seeping from her lips.

Fi-Six's eyes turned completely black as he turned to face Ket Shi Kong. "Are you the one who did this?" he asked in a menacing tone.

Ket Shi Kong subconsciously stepped back, her eyes wide with fear. "My Lord, forgive me. I was out of line," she replied.

"Go and wait for me in my room. I will punish you later. Now, get out of my sight," Fi-Six said, his voice dripping with anger.

Ket Shi Kong quickly retreated, her head bowed in submission.

Fi-Six then turned to face Bella and Leann, his expression disappointed and angry. "I am disappointed in both of you. How could you allow Miss Merry to come to harm?" he asked, his voice firm.

Bella and Leann bowed their heads in shame. "My Lord, we have no excuse for our actions. We shall atone for our sins with our lives," they said in unison.

They pulled out knives, ready to take their own lives.

As Bella and Leann raised the knives in the air, ready to end their lives, Merry rushed to them and grabbed their hands.

"No, don't!" she cried out, trying to stop them.

In the sudden struggle, the knives slipped and cut both of Merry's hands. Bella and Leann froze, shocked by what had happened.

"Merry, oh no!" Fi-Six exclaimed, rushing to her side. "Why did you stop them?" he asked, his voice filled with concern and anger.

Merry winced in pain, but her eyes were fixed on Bella and Leann. "I won't let you take your own lives," she said, her voice firm despite the pain. "You're not to blame for what happened. It's not your fault."

Fi-Six knelt down beside her, his eyes blazing with a mix of concern and admiration as he gently healed her wounds.

"You are one of a kind, a pregnant human who would put herself in harm's way for demons' servants," he said, his voice low and husky. "Fine, if they mean this much to you, then they can stay by your side. Leann and Bella, you are forgiven for your transgressions. Take Merry to another room. I have other business to attend to."

He turned and strode away, leaving the three women in a comfortable silence.

"Miss Merry, why would you do that for us?" Leann and Bella asked in unison, their voices filled with emotion.

"Because I consider the two of you to be my friends," Merry replied, her voice trembling slightly. "I haven't known you both long, but you've been so kind to me, and I...I couldn't bear the thought of anything happening to you."

"Miss Merry, we are only doing our jobs," Leann said with a small smile.

"Your job is to look after me...not to be kind," Merry said, her eyes sparkling with amusement.

Meanwhile

in Fi-sixs room ket shi kong was on her knees in front of Fi-Six begging for forgiveness tears running down her face.

You can stop with all the fake crying. There is only one way you can be forgiven. Fi-Six said with a Grinn.

Ket shi kong had a knowing smile on her face she got up and walked over to the bed and got into a position her head facing down.

Fi-Six walked over and whispered in her ear "Arch Your Back for me." He said with a sneer.
