Continuation 2 (Chapter I – "Who Needs Girls!")

Meanwhile, while Sakura and Tony were busy arguing, they both didn't notice that there were people eavesdropping over them and saw the whole incident happen.

"He…Hey! Sakura! Wait up!" Tony said as he was following Sakura

Sakura didn't reply, instead she kept running towards the exit.

Tony's unfortunate luck didn't break here. When he was able to get near Sakura, he lost his balance.

"Who…whoa!"

Tony blacked out. When he regained consciousness, he found himself in the school infirmary.

"Uhhhn… I'm in the infirmary? Who brought me here?" said Tony in a low tone voice.

"You really are clumsy aren't you?" a woman's angelic voice passed through Tony's ears.

"Sa…Sakura! I thought you were mad at me… I…I'm really sorry for what happened…" Tony said in a surprised manner to a low tone.

"Hmph! The reason why I brought you here doesn't mean that I'm not angry at you anymore. I can't just leave you there lying in the ground you know! By the way, the head nurse has arrived, so I'm going home now." Sakura angrily said as she walked out of the infirmary.

"Aw man! What the hell should I do now! Aaaaaaaargh! sigh Maybe I should go home now. I'll just let things be! I don't care!" Tony said to himself to recover his mood.

When he arrived at his house, Tony heard a deep voice welcoming him.

"Welcome back Tony! How's your schooling goin?" a lord knight asked Tony in a happy mood.

"Dad! Is that really you? I thought you were in a crusade with the king? How was your trip? Since when did you get back? What did you do there?" Rushed and happily asked by Tony.

"Whoa! Slow down kiddo! One at a time! There's no need to rush." The lord knight immediately interrupted Tony's fast talk and scratches his head.

Antonio Nefala I, also known as the "White Blade", master of both sword and spear skills, also broke through the hardships of the tests as a rebirth class. He is also a member of King Tristan III's elite bodyguards known as the "Dark Wing".

"Hey, don't tell me that! You have lots of stories to tell me and there's no time to spare!" The young swordsman exclaimed.

"So, tell me, why have you returned early from the crusade?" Tony seriously asked.

"Heh! I have finished all my work in an instant and the king was pleased, so he offered me a vacation for a month! Hey, by the way kiddo, don't go to your classes tomorrow. I'll show you something that I learned from the crusade. Let's hit the sack now, it's getting late." The lord knight said as he looked very confident.

"Alright! I can't wait for tomorrow! G'night dad!" Tony shouted happily and quickly ran up to his room.

As dawn arrived, Antonio woke up early and warmed up in their backyard. After a few minutes, Tony also woke up and directly headed towards his dad.

"C'mon dad! What do you want to show me?" Tony quickly exclaimed.

"This technique is derived from the crusader class skill "Auto Guard" but I have refined it so even lord knight class can use. I'm still mastering it but I have seemed to known a bit on how to use it. I call this technique "Parrying". Quick, launch any attack against me." The lord knight seriously said as he unsheathes his sword.

"I won't hold back on this one! Prepare yourself dad!" The young swordsman shouted with enthusiasm.

"Urgh…" Tony puts his hand over his head.

Tony remembered what happened on his training with Sakura. It's not like him to leave unfinished business so he quickly decides to go to school.

"Hey, what's the hold up? C'mon, strike now!" The lord knight shouted.

"I'm sorry dad. I have some unfinished business in school. Maybe after classes or so we may continue this. I really have to go…" The young swordsman seriously said.

"It's still early so you can get to your classes in time. But promise me, after that you will train with me ok?" the lord knight said.

"Ok, I promise. Thanks dad." Tony said and quickly prepares for school.
