Chapter 33: The Training Begins
The group of people looked at Unknown's expression,
Then one of them asked with a questioning tone:
"Why is he looking at us as if we're a bunch of lunatics?"
Seriousness began to appear on their faces,
Then...
An explosion of chaotic words burst out, all denying that they were insane.
One of them laughed and approached Unknown, saying:
"Don't mind these old geezers. They talk too much because they have nothing better to do."
Suddenly...
A majestic voice echoed throughout the entire area:
"Now... Silence, all of you."
Annoyance appeared on their faces, but they all stopped immediately.
The one who spoke looked at Unknown.
His gaze was strange... a mix of wisdom, madness, confidence, and every other kind of emotion.
But in that moment, curiosity and wonder filled his eyes.
He said in a strange voice that somehow calmed Unknown and gave him a sense of reassurance:
"My child, I want to know what happened to you from the very beginning...
Can you tell me everything that has happened to you since you woke up until now?
After that, I will help you, give you a gift...
And I'll answer your questions — just enough so that it won't harm your path."
The group of people were surprised by what he said,
Especially at the word "gift."
They looked at Unknown with a brief look of pity, which quickly disappeared.
Let's return to where we were...
After hearing that person's question, for some reason, Unknown told him everything in full detail.
When Unknown spoke about people like Adam and Ibrahim, he smiled and talked cheerfully — especially about the pranks and challenges they had between them.
When he reached the point where he saw the sword technique,
his memories began to blur...
but slowly, he started remembering more and more.
He was shocked...
His facial expression turned into confusion and fear.
Unknown said in a trembling voice:
"Is that... me?!"
The people around him looked at one another.
One of them said: "How are we going to explain this to him?"
Another replied: "Why is his personality so weak?"
A third scoffed: "Don't forget, he only awakened seven months ago."
The man with the majestic voice thought for a moment,
Then said in a strange tone that once again calmed Unknown:
"Stop... Don't think about that."
At that moment, a shift happened inside Unknown.
He calmed down,
Then continued to narrate what he remembered.
When he reached the point about the real world —
and began to remember the physical improvements that had happened to him,
he was happy at first...
But then he recalled the pain that had carved itself deep into his body.
Unknown began to tremble, and sweat gathered down his back.
The majestic man sighed,
and that sigh somehow returned Unknown to a state of calm.
He said:
"I understand what happened to you.
Don't worry, it's nothing too serious."
Then he paused for a moment, as if he were thinking about something in Unknown's story.
He smiled lightly.
Then said:
"Now... it's my turn to give you what I promised.
We will begin the training,
Then I'll give you the gift,
And finally, I'll answer your questions — at least in a way that won't affect your journey."
---
Now... your training will begin.
The first phase of training will be about the state.
The world around Unknown suddenly shifted.
He found himself in a vast arena, where four people stood:
One of them radiated a flood of mixed emotions.
Another appeared to be focused on a single thing, with unblinking eyes.
The third was surrounded by an aura of knowledge and wisdom.
And the fourth... was fierce, filled with killing intent.
