The Cold Blooded Hunter: Seeker of Peace
36. Hard exercise III
Last night, my grandfather and I met the Flame Emperor, and this morning, he was already standing folding his hands in the middle of my grandfather's courtyard.
"You guys are so lazy!" Exclaimed Flame Emperor with a serious face and folded hands.
"Oh, sorry..." My grandfather looked down, "It's all because of this boy."
"Don't think about it, for now, the sky has to follow my training..." Said Flame Emperor, "Only for today alone, since tomorrow I have to return to my home world, my disappearance must cause turmoil in that world."
Well, I actually didn't really want to practice with an obscure being who suddenly claimed to be the Flame Emperor, where his name was the same as my job anymore, wasn't that strange?
Plus my grandfather, who seemed to respect the creature, made me feel that there was a strange connection between my grandfather and the creature.
The Flame Emperor pointed at me, "Do everything I tell you to do..."
"Push up 100 times!"
"Sit up 100 times!"
"Plank 10 minutes!"
"Run around the page 20 times!"
I immediately fell to my knees and my head touched the ground, "Weight!"
"Do it or I'll burn!" Exclaimed Flame Emperor loudly.
I immediately stood up and did a run around the courtyard in annoyance.
Not this grandfather or fire creature, it's the same as telling me to do strenuous exercise!

"Not much has changed..." I muttered with a sigh, even strenuous exercise is difficult to raise my level.
I lifted my face, looking at my grandfather who was jumping around in the middle of that extremely hot courtyard, with his bare chest and muscular body that looked soaked in sweat, making him look a little... Good looking to me...
Is there a trick to level up quickly?
"I must admit, you're the only youngest Awakened Hunter I've ever seen, because the average Awakened Hunter receives their newfound powers in their over twenties..." The Flame Emperor pointed at my grandfather, "He... Receiving the strength of the Fire Bird Lord when he was thirty-five years old, in his first year he became an S rank Hunter."
Well, really surprisingly, my grandfather became a Hunter rank S at thirty-five, while my father became a Hunter rank S at twenty, making him look more talented than his father, he said, but, baby, he died two months ago.
In the end, a great power could not make one immortal, spared death.
"Sky, are you sure you'll receive that much power at such a young age?" Ask Flame Emperor.
"You doubt a man's determination of revenge?" I asked, I don't know where I got that question.
"No, it's just that your body I think will have a hard time accommodating excessive force later when you level..." The Flame Emperor then stood up, "Leak the skill, you will be able to use the power of fire and drain it into the Black Flame Sword."
After he said so, he ignored his hand and turned into a huge flame before disappearing.

Six months since the destruction of Surabaya...
"Ninety-eight, ninety-nine, one hundred!" I swung my sword down and after the count touched a hundred, I dropped my sword.
I threw myself on the ground while breathing, "Yes, yes, yes!"
It has been six months since the destruction of the city of Surabaya and during that time, I have managed to raise my level from the initial level of level 5 to level 10.

"Still together, huh?" I muttered while breathing.
During these six months, apart from being forced to train hard, I also trained against Monsters.
Yes, that monster, the monster that can destroy mankind and all its civilization...
I was told to fight the Monster with a body I could tell had improved considerably. It was fortunate that I could still survive, otherwise the Flame Emperor would cry because his successor was so weak.
"Corn, come..." My grandfather called out to me, along with a gesture of swinging his hand, like calling me.
I got up then took the Black Flame Sword and walked up to my grandfather.
Since I did not carry the Black Flame Sword sheath, the sheath was carried by my grandfather, so I carried the Black Flame Sword on my shoulder, like a farmer carrying his hoe...
"Langit, I think you're getting ready all the time..." Said my grandfather, "You can even survive the twitching of a dozen Fire Ant and make it home, that includes great achievements."
"So?"
"It's good that you try to find your luck out there..."
I shut up, what does that mean? Was my grandfather planning to let me go after his actual training not that much?
"But yeah, actually grandfather can't just let you go, there's still a lot you need to learn again..."
"You are still not fluent in speaking, you are also slow in thinking, stupid in counting, can not read fast, your movements are still rigid..."
My grandfather kept mentioning all my shortcomings, while I could only quietly listen to everything, because nothing was wrong anyway, everything was right...
Because INT points are below average, making me believe that that's why I'm stupid in thinking.
But when it comes to instincts, it can be rethought, I can feel many things while fighting, making me sure that my passive skill makes me that way.
How could the king have such a mediocre instinct, right? Must have excellent instinct and ability to read situations, more than others...
"So, in the next six months, you're gonna teach me everything about academic science, science that you can't find if you fight too much..."

According to my grandfather's words, he began to teach me many things, from reading, writing, counting, speaking to others well, and everything.
I also learned all the basics of being a Hunter, interrupted sword training and controlling Stamina.
Oh yes, since I already have a system and can see Stamina points, I can also feel something in my body, which feels so hot, like so much fire.
My grandfather said that it was the strength of the Flame Emperor that had risen, by a little bit, by less than a quarter in fact, my grandfather said.
I don't know what a quarter is, but for sure my grandfather thought at that time, under a quarter it was very small...
And now, my lesson in history is about to begin...
