Although Jerome had said those harsh words earlier, he still brought us lunch at around one o’clock in the afternoon.
After lunch, Jerome told me to go to Leonard for an exclusive training. It seemed that he had been informed beforehand.
Harry was so jealous that he kept pestering me with questions, begging me to share whatever I learned when I got back.
I gloated in front of him, pretending to be happy, but in truth, my heart was full of bitterness. Thinking about how difficult Leonard was to get along with, I couldn’t help but dread meeting him.
That afternoon, I headed to our designated meeting spot.
I stood outside the door, took a deep breath, and tried to psyche myself up.
In order to become stronger, I had to face difficulties first.
Finally, I pushed the door open uneasily, but found that the room was empty. There was only the sound of the clock ticking on the wall in the empty training gym.
Was I too early? As I walked inside, I called out Leonard’s name, but no one answered.
I waited for about five more minutes, but Leonard still didn’t show up.
I gnawed my lower lip and felt that I had been tricked. Leonard obviously didn’t want to teach me, yet he had asked me to come here today.
I couldn’t help but recall the time Leonard scolded me without knowing the whole picture. The more I thought about it, the angrier I got.
A couple more minutes passed and I didn’t plan to wait any longer. I stood up to leave.
Just then, I suddenly felt the hairs on the back of my neck stand on one end, but it was too late to make a move.
Out of the blue, a heavy punch came from behind and sent me flying forward.
Sylvia’s POV
I struggled to get up from the floor, although I felt a tingling pain in my back. I coughed and looked up at the person who attacked me, only to find that it was Leonard.
“Hey, why did you do that?” I was a little angry at his sudden move. But at the same time, I was also terrified. Werewolves had sharp senses innately. But why didn’t I notice that Leonard was behind me just now? If I was on a mission, and it was an enemy, I was afraid I was already dead.
Leonard pursed his lips, and his face darkened. He didn’t say anything. Instead, he attacked me directly again.
I was caught off guard, but I tried hard to dodge his attack.
His moves were so quick that they didn’t give me a chance to react at all. I tried to resist a few moves, but his strength was astonishing.
He was old now, but he was still strong. I couldn’t imagine how strong he was when he was young. Now I really felt the strength of the once most powerful werewolf.
Rufus was right. People would know how insignificant their strength was after meeting the real strong one.
After receiving a few punches from Leonard, I slowly calmed down from the panic.
I realized that this might be my first class, so I quickly adjusted my mindset and started taking him seriously.
Leonard’s punching style was different from that of the orthodox army. His moves were ever-changing in detail, and there was no regularity at all.
Leonard’s punching style was different from that of the orthodox army. His moves were ever-changing in detail, and there was no regularity at all.
It simply meant that if there were no rules, there were no flaws.
In the end, I got flustered. I also had this feeling of powerlessness when I fought with Rufus before.
But it was different with him because he restrained himself in fear that I would get hurt.
Leonard, on the other hand, attacked me with all his strength and became fiercer and fiercer.
I was so anxious that I sweated profusely. I didn’t know how to deal with him.
“Admit defeat,” Leonard said in a deep voice, gripping my shoulder blades.
“No way!” I moved my right hand and tried to strike back. But he clasped my shoulders so tightly that I couldn’t move at all.
Leonard snorted and loosened his grip on my shoulders. But the next second, he attacked me again with a different move.
I knew he was giving me a chance.
Mixed emotions, including unwillingness and admiration, filled my heart.
He kept telling me to admit defeat, but I continued to refuse. For me, I either die or win in a battle.
And I silently told myself that there would always be a chance.
I only had to find Leonard’s flaws. Even though it was hard for me to fight against him now, I still didn’t want to give up.
Leonard dealt with me easily. It was as if he was a cat playing with a mouse.
I wanted to find a chance to attack from his back, but he seemed to have seen through my intention. He never exposed his back and always fought with me head-on.
Soon, I felt that he seemed to want to end the fight. He sped up his attack, forcing me to step back.
At the last moment, Leonard bent over and attacked me in the abdomen. His back was exposed in front of me.
My chance had come.
I gambled my last chance to attack Leonard the moment he hit me in the abdomen.
Although his punch might cause my internal injuries, I didn’t want to dodge it.
Just when I was about to take his attack head-on, Leonard stopped at a critical moment. He quickly suppressed my hands and said coldly, “Stop!”
I didn’t say a word. I just stood in front of him in silence, letting the sweat on my forehead slide down to my eyes.
