I, Alone Is Enough!

The night before the Training.

'He said he want to survive in this world huh' Did he think it will be as easy as cleaning the house.?"'

The Old man is looking outside the window, thinking about Jade and as he gaze at the moon.

After some time the Old man sleeps but in his dreams some memories of old times flash in his mind.

.

There is a man standing near a cliff overlooking the entire valley. Then a kid came running, the kid is skinny and about 11-12 years old. He was sweaty, out of breath and definitely rushing just to get here.

-MISTER!!! PLEASE HELP,!!!!

THE TOWN!!! THE TOWN IS UNDER ATTACK OF SOME BANDITS!!

The kid looked at the man with pleading eyes, definitely waiting for his reply. He know that this man is super strong, so strong.

The man is silent for a short while. Then without looking to the child he replied.

-So What?! What do you want me to do? Why don't you help them yourself?"

-"But?...

-"There's no But!!,

-MISTER!!!!!! Can you Please?, Just this once.

The kid cried so hard, but he still remember that he decline to be the disciple of this man.

-All right, just wait here!

Then the man vanished, but just a short time not even a minute, he reappears in the same spot. It was so fast that the Kid, still couldn't belief if he truly solved the problem with the bandits.

-"Kid, You saved my life once, and I already helped you several times, Now were even, I will leave this town in a month, if you want to be stronger then make up your mind and accompany me in a short journey."

There was a time when the kid once stumble a man in the river, the man has many wounds all over his body and his breathing is unstable, and he helps him, by bringing him in a random cave at the forest. He also brings food until that man recovers some of his strength and that man is exactly the Mister in front of his eyes.

-'Thank you... Mister..... Thank you"

The kid became emotional and started crying in the same spot.

Early in the morning the Old man opens his eyes,

"That dream again"

****

Ha!

Ha!

Ha!

Ha!

Ha!

Ha!

Inside the forest Jade voiced can be heard, accompanying the sound of a tree that is being chop by the axe. It's been three hours since he started chopping the tree, but not only the tree is so big even the axe is quite heavy, so his progress is so slow and the damage is minimal.

"Can I really do it?!"

He looked at the clear sky and asked himself. But then again he clearly remembers how he was beaten up and also the words left by the man.

"I don't want to be a weakling, I can do it"

"I can!!"

With determination in his eyes he continued.
