Monday morning at dawn, Yunan and Leol woke up as usual, out on their training outfits and proceeded to wake up Reina who was adamant on sleeping a bit more, the dragged her to the wash basin the room, they use for washing their faces and helped wash her face and sober up, then they helped her put on the spare leather armor Yunan provided yesterday. " first put on some thin linen shirt and shorts, then put your head through the hole in the big flabby piece and let the front side be on your chest, then buckle the straps on the sides tightly, not too tight you can not breath nor too loose it moves around when you move, then put the pants like any other pants, i put a hole for the tails but it might feel uncomfortable so please bear with it until you buy something fitting with fae later".A few question, detailed answers later, Yunan had to dress Reina himself, like she was a 5 year old, apparently she always needed help to dress herself, they needed to teach her to be independent before long, or she will never be dungeon material, finally about half an hour later, they left the dorm to the field, they started jogging slowly, Reina was in a worse shape than they thought, she could not even finish the first lap, and had to sit and regain her breath, what was worse she could only do squats and could not do more than 3 pushups and 5 sit ups, one word popped into the minds of Yuna and Leol, "pampered".
They asked her about the training she did and she told them it was all about magic theories and chanting, nothing else, she explained to them that her own race, the eastern fox kitsune, has outstanding magical abilities and that was what they focused on, they would only start physical training a year before they enter the dungeon of tartarus, merely to be able to keep up with the travel needed for going up and down the floors.
No wonder she was this out of shape, thought the boys, even ordinary ten year olds would have been ahead of her in that regard, and so she was told to try and push her limits every morning, because otherwise she would probably pa.s.s out before the first hour was over, and so instead of chanting, they had to make a plan for Reina to grow stronger, very fast, otherwise leader would punish them for not taking care of her, and based on the training regime Yunan had, punishment was something to avoid harder than death.
After sunrise, the boys showed Reina the bath house and told her to clean up fast and not linger there or she would miss breakfast and with her physic, she would need any energy she could muster for cla.s.s. Even after the warning Reina was still late for breakfast and Yunan had to take out some food for her, apparently she was waiting for someone to wash her, and since it was morning no one came and she had to get out before time for cla.s.s. That earned her some weird looks, and in compromise, Leol and Yunan flipped a coin on who would show her how to clean up herself, they would never let fae or leader take care of that as they would just take advantage of the situation and pet her till they were content, maybe they would even request to bathe her every time she needed to, which defeats the purpose.
Reina ate in hurry on her way to hall 5 following the boys, when they arrived they were met by Balin who pounced at Reina and took her in his arms, cuddling her, it took both Yunan and Leol cursing at him and pulling Reina from his arms telling him he can have her after cla.s.s, and threatening him to tell the other he took advantage of the defenseless girl, it finally worked when Yunan brought leader in their threats and Balin had to relinquish the girl to her roommates.
Once they went into the hall, Yunan explained to leader the situation Reina was in and she had to run a few laps around the hall, and she fell exhausted in less than 3 minutes, the betting round was lost, they all overestimated her, way too much, they thought even if she was not on Yunan"s level, she was at least around where Leol was, but they were severely shocked by her incapability.
After deliberation, debauchery came to a conclusion, physical training was a priority for Rina while Yunan and Leol had to continue the old regime. And so it was decided that Reina had to run a lap around the hall once every ten minutes, then she can join the boys in magical constructs, she was much better at that, but not as good as they expected from an imperial descendant, Reina was good at theory, but drawing the magical constructs was challenging for her, add in the fact she was getting tired from the constant exercise, and her thinking speed deteriorated fast, by the end of the first hour she was so tired she was dozing off.
As expected, debauchery could not help themselves and let reina take a nap until the last hour of the morning lesson, she restarted the same routine of a lap every ten minutes but with the added chanting of the divergent series, during the drawing of magical constructs, she made enough mistakes that Yunan and Leol who could reliably calculate until the 60s could not count past the 10s before restarting thanks to Reina.
After the morning cla.s.s was over Yunan told Fae to help them buy more training outfits for all three and she agreed readily, and the trio was escorted by Lucian and Fae for shopping and lunch outside the academy, thanks to lucian pushing for speedy shopping fae did not linger much in the various clothes and went straight toward the shops specialised in armor and hunting gear, they even had enough time for hearty lunch, while Balin was being whipped for daring to take the lead in cuddling Reina earlier in the morning, he was lifted by dustan high up while Bai and leader whipped him using the flats of Bai"s swords.
