One can only grow through experience the pain

“Gahhhhhhh!!!”

“If you do not want to die in real battle either block it or avoid the vital point, sacrifice your arm or leg if you have to!”

Countless precise strike aim at various gap, made loud sound after it crashed against human flesh.

*Thud!! SMACK!! Crash!!!

Without being able to properly block let alone dodge even once.

Yuuma crashed straight into wall, before he even fall down, there immediately follow-up attack come right at him before he can even recover.

He twitched on ground in pain and on verge of loss consciousness.

Before he can escape this pain by go to dreamland.

The one who crushed him just now, grab his head then lift his face up, then immediately forced feed him the red potion, to regenerate his severe injured body.

“A-AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!”

“You can't even endure this? Just how spoiled can you be!? Grit you teeth, Is this all your resolve amount to!? endure it with your life on line!!”

Yuuma, who can't even lose his consciousness and keep get forced to stand up, only to get beaten down again and again countless times.

“Again! Today, If you can't block properly even just once, then tomorrow workout routine will double!!”

“Arghhhh!! Y-yes, milady!!”

“Too slow!!”

“AHHHHHHHHH!!!”

Once again, I got sent fly into sky before crash down and roll around on ground.

I end up lie on ground once again, with my body covered entirely in injuries.

My mind is bit hazy, and i ended up look up toward clear blue sky above me.

The hit on my head cause headache, and temporarily make me lose my mind.

‘Ugh…That's hurt…How did it come to this again?’

I tried to recall to situation which lead me here…

*******************************

After I got called to meet Lady Alicia in her room, I knocked on her door and inform her that i had arrived.

“Come in”

With confirmation from owner of room, and sound of lock being open and something being destroyed.

I hurriedly opened the door with nervous feeling yet also excitement that I can meet lady Alicia once again after so long.

“Close the door, then come sit here on floor”

Following her order, I did as I was told and sat down in seiza on floor in front her who sat on her bed.

“It's been while hasn't it? If there nothing wrong with my memory You said your name is Kanzaki Yuuma right?”

“Yes! Milady”

“Good, I heard that you already bare minimum training as butler, your body should be ready for upcoming plan I have that you need to follow."

Alicia fan herself with her favourite deep crimson fan embroidered with golden butterflies and black rose.

Then she closed it, used it to point at me.

“But before that, I need you to answer my questions”

Alicia stood up, then went toward closet on the side of room and opened it.

Inside there what seem to be tear in space making cracking sound inside the closet.

‘T-that is where i came out from after I got sucked by something right…’

Beyond the crack, I can even see my apartment room in messed up state before i come into this world.

“Since now you finally learn the bare minimum basic, I can start teach what you need to do to assist me from now on, but before that, I need you to explain what beyond this dimension crack first.”

“At first I thought eventually the dimension crack will get fixed on it own due this world law,

but even after several months has passed.

This crack still not disappeared if anything, the passage is actually stabilizing, at this rate by next week, it should be possible to cross between dimension through it”

Alicia only turn her head toward me slightly and glance at me with corner of her eye.

“I need you to explain what is beyond here, It look like some kind of residence where person stayed.”

‘Although it look like a disaster gone through it'

Alicia quietly mumbled.

I lift my hand up, ready to answer any questions she has.

“You're allowed to speak”

“Yes! Milady! Beyond here is my apartment room i rented!”

“Apartment? And Rented? explain what do you mean by that.”

“Yes! To answer milady question, the apartment is…………”

I slowly answer her questions about my world one by one before who know when, her eyes seem to brighten up a bit.

After several hours of answer her curiosity, my legs which already gone numb, I don't think I can stand up for while.

While thinking stupid things like usual.

Before long, Alicia finally decided to stop her Q&A.

“How interesting…I do want to see it for myself…”

After that lady Alicia who sat on sofa seem to thinking for while, before she spoke up her thought.

“I decided, I want to go check it out for myself and you will have to guide me in your original world next week after passage between dimension stabilized.”

“Yes, Milady!!”

Alicia nodding her head elegantly before her atmosphere shift entirely.

I hurried straight my back despite pain from sit in seiza for while now.

“Now, it's time for me to state the main business here, You who will have to act as my right hand man, need to be handle many task I will make you do in future, But most important part of all is you need strength to survive as my exclusive servant.”

Her atmosphere drop by several turn become cold like ice yet intense like that of raging flame.

“I will train you myself, So prepare yourself, if you can't endure it, then I have no use for you either. I do not want to waste the investment i spent on you.”

Alicia with her cold gaze that only seem to get colder by every second finally come back into action.

“Yes, I'm prepared to laid my life down for Lady Alicia!”

‘I will definitive repay my life debt toward her no matter what! For Her who give me a chance of new life.

no matter what it cost, I willingly to risk my life for her sake!’

A thought unlike how i was in past, when i just live my life without any purpose, quietly growing stronger in my mind.

“Then follow me to training ground”

Alicia stood up from sofa and walk toward the door, but she can't feel Yuuma stand up to follow her, she turn her head toward him while her body still face toward door.

“What…are you doing? Why you don't follow me? Are you…have some foolish thought?”

Alicia glared at me, slowly release her pressure.

And I.

“Sorry milady but I sat on ground for so long in this position and…I can't feel my legs at all…”

Lady Alicia anger calm down, her face which is slightly frown, finally slowly turn back to her usual expressionless face.

“*Sigh fine, I will just drag you there myself.”

Without wait for my answer she lift my entire body with just telekinesis magic, and chantlessly at that.

From what I heard in this world, People who are capable of use mana in their surroundings and create mana circle in their body is call Magus.

Their exist are so rare in this world that only few people are capable of use magic, one can even become low rank noble if they have talent as Magus.

And yet let alone being one of those exceptionally rare existence like Magus, Lady Alicia whose ability is far superior even amongst those who can use magic, Are capable of easily use advance-tier of skill like chantless cast the magic as natural as breathing.

I didn't resist her telekinesis at all knowing her intention, well it not like I can even resist it to begin with.

At least it not princess carry.

*******************************

Well…that pretty much sum it up of how i got beaten up black and blue, watching the sky absentmindedly.

After got thrashed around roughly bit more, who known how much time has passed but since the sky still blue it probably not that long.

Lady Alicia look up at sky, then walk toward tree shade cover.

“I will let you take 15 mins break, you only allow to stay in training ground but use the time however you want.”

She then close both her eyes while leaning her back against the tree.

“F-finally a bit of rest…..ha-hah-hah”

I collapsed to ground, after all sense that has been tense for while relax, sudden feeling of exhaustion come crash down to me all at once.

‘Ugh…I'm dying yet also not at same time…’

I stare at sky without being able to do anything else due my current entire body state that are scream muscle pain all over the place, filled to brim with suffering.

‘But…I can definitively feel myself become stronger after drank those red potion…it's very painful though.’

…Let's just endure a bit more, as much as I can before my body collapse.

I can't exactly disappoint Lady Alicia aren't I?

That would be too pathetic.

Despite being feel pain all over my entire body, I truly feel alive.
