After a 10 minute rest, I stood up and still feel a bit troubled in my stomach. Still, its much better than when I was suspended up in the air. Its quite a unique experience actually. Itazura is currently playing with Moonlight who is casting a few magic spells that is not familiar to me. More like magic beams going out on her hands and Itazura is chasing the lights that comes out.When Itazura looked on my location she smiled with a sinister feeling on me like she was planning to give more dangerous. Instead of feeling myself getting stronger, I felt that I am getting weaker instead.
"Alright Kazuma, its time for you to fully start your training. We will proceed to step 1," Moonlight explained.
"What?! What was that training earlier then?"
"Huh? Of course that was a trial and not counted. Although it made your guts much stronger than normal," Moonlight smiled but somehow, it feels more different instead.
I was shocked. Seriously? That life threatening sh*t is just a freaking trial? Then does that mean the real trials are freaking more dangerous then?!
"Come here for a second and I will teach you another magic. You will need it in your first actual trial actually but it was also beneficial for you," Moonlight beckons me.
I did not disobey her and approach her. Just when I approached her around two more steps, she suddenly raised her arm, and suddenly flicks my forehead..
PAK!
I suddenly felt a strong force on my forehead and the next thing I knew, I was flying fast away from Moonlight. I land into the ground and stumble on the gra.s.ses for a few kilometers. The ground made a huge crater on my pathway earlier making it more obvious on how strong the impact of her flick is. Luckily, I still have my head intact instead of being removed from that seemingly harmless flick.
Then, I realize my head is full of knowledge about some sort of acceleration magic called Haste. Of course I knew that it was an acceleration magic since Haste is a term for speed. Also, the knowledge that entered me is like an old memory that helped me realize that I can use the skill just fine. Although I am sure it was not my knowledge, I am one hundred percent sure that I can use the skill without problem. Is this the skill that Moonlight said I needed?
Then before I can comprehend what was happening, I felt the ground shaking, like there was a large herd of elephants marching towards my direction. The rocks and pebbles on the crater I was in were shaking and jumping up and down. Afraid that the crater will collapse and bury me alive, I decided to climb out of this hole and luckily its not that deep and I can climb out on it without much problem. But then I regretted it. In the distance, I saw the cause of the tremors and it was really a herd. Not really a herd of animals stampeding towards my direction but freaking giants! Then, Moonlight appeared before me floating in the sky alongside Itazura.
"Itazura won"t be accompanying you in this training since you really need to maintain your own speed here. If you don"t want to get squashed by the marching giants then push yourself to run for 2 hours away from the giants. I won"t be saving you if you got in danger. The only requirement for you is to last for 2 hours and you are done. I will be watching you okay?" Moonlight smiled. Itazura happily wave at me and for some reason, she looks like she was saying "Good luck".
Then, Moonlight snap her fingers and they disappeared in my vision. What is left are the large expanse of the field and the big giant horde that are stomping on the ground.
"Sh*t!" I don"t wish to get squashed by their feet so I quickly take a run for my life.
Then, I realize, the distance between me and the giants are slowly closing in. I also realize that the size of the giants are similar to an ant seeing a human. In this case, I am the ant. I made my mad dash and whatever direction I go, the giants seems to also follow my footsteps and directions! This is no longer training! This is torture! I didn"t sign up on this sh*t! I still wanted to see my children and grandchildren! Also, I don"t want to die as a freaking virgin!
I made my all energy flow through all my limbs and I feel like the adrenaline is flowing in my veins. Then I realize that I can use a magic. I have haste magic? Why not use it? With the knowledge on my head fully transplanted on my memories, I wont have any problems using it.
I channel my whole mana inside my body. I already have basic understanding on mana around the surroundings and also inside my body. Absorbing the mana for increase of power helps a lot to increase the power output of the skill you cast.
As I run for my life, I channel the mana without stopping on my whole body and when I feel that I was overflowing with mana, I made my two palms connect.
"Haste!"

I feel my whole body lighter than usual and I feel like I am as light as a feather. With this power in my body, I didn"t hesitate to run as fast as I can. The farther I was with the giants, the more confident I will survive this. I push my legs to the limits. The giants are not slowing down either and instead, they are running faster than usual which made me tremble. Casting another Haste is just useless since it wont overlap with the current Haste still in effect on my body, I saved my mana to prepare to cast another Haste once the effect of the current Haste disappears.
The ground thud every time they make a step and with hundreds of giants doing the same things at the same time, it was very similar to an earthquake instead. Around 10 minutes later, the effect of Haste dwindles and slowly, I begin to slow once more, returning me to the same speed I was before. I already prepared my casting magic and clapped my two hands again.
"Haste!"
This time, I only cast two magic which is only Haste but my whole body seems to be empty all of a sudden and after using Haste, a large amount of energy disappeared like being sucked out. Then I realized that I can"t just use Haste every time it dwindles out of effect. Constant use of magic beyond the capacity that you currently have will result on fainting and now I realize that once I use another haste, my death spells out.
