Chapter 5

"uugh~." said Zetsu in pain. "It burns still…" Aaron said.

"You 2 should rest." Said lux in concern. "You 2 did well trying to defend each other." Said ric.

"yea and that bold declaration of rivalry. That is pride of a warrior. I like it." Said dragon proudly.

"We'll win next time. Right Aaron." Said Zetsu. "Yea we'll win." replied Aaron.

"And don't worry about Ray and Becky they're fine. Lloyd is healing their wounds. Then he'll be back to give you extra treatment." Said Neko.

2 days later

"WOOOO! I'M ALIVE!" Shouted Zetsu. "Time to train I suppose." said Aaron

"Yea let's go we aren't going to lose next time! We won't let them hurt anyone or our pride." Said Zetsu in determination. "yea I agree. We can't be out done like this." Said Aaron

"Glad to see your back." Said Ric. "We should get you guys to train twice as hard." Lux said.

"Ric we should have them climb levels upon the main tower to get them stronger. It'll be rough but it's time they get stronger physically and it'll boost their skills much quicker." Lux whispered to Ric.

"I guess it is time to actually train them. They should be fine with us around." Replied Ric. "But don't baby them or show off this time. They must learn to do most things on their own. We can only help them in drastic times. OK." Lux confirmed with a serious tone. "yea I got it." Ric said agreeingly.

"Alright, time to seriously train. The tower has more floors with portals at the other side to help advance. It will tough. But, you 2 will definitely get stronger. We will only give the basics and help in drastic times." Announced Ric.

"Really?! Yes! We're actually going to be taken seriously Aaron. This is our best chance to become legends." Zetsu said proudly in excitement.

Aaron grinned with excitement. And with that the group went off to another portal and went to floor 2 a new place a new adventure. And new dangers all waiting for Zetsu and Aaron.

"So this is floor 2? Really weird. Looks pretty damp and poor…" Aaron said.

"Yea but we came to train so this should help us get stronger." Said Zetsu

"It gets worse so never let your guard down here. And take these potions to help you recover strength." Ric said. "Here take these too in case you're out of stamina this will give another boost. We never use them anyways." Lux said

"Oh ok…" Zetsu said as he took the potions and gave half to Aaron. "Not like we're going to need it anyways. hahaha." Zetsu said in confidence. "OK LET'S GO AND TRAIN!" Shouted Ric.

"Ok. Zetsu when you dodge use a move to create more distance between you two so you can have time to layout a trap to do as much damage as possible in a short time. Keep doing that until you can see the general technique of your foe." Explained Lux. "Got it" Zetsu as he charged against a Oost for combat.

"Aaron as a ranger keep your distance as much as possible but when they do get close you have your multi shot to get them to back off your area. And by the time they dodge and get close you should be able to escape their attack." Said Ric. "Understood." Aaron confirmed. Aaron got close to a Kodora and attacked for a close dodging practice. The 2 students went and trained in floor 2.
