35 Road To Become Strong (1/2)

”You need to train hard so you would be selected in a handful of people that goes out to mainland for their schooling. And when you go out to mainland to study, you will become stronger and learn about the world soon becoming a member of a noble family one day.” Yang proudly tells the whole future tale to Faust while training him.

”Mainland? For what? I don't wanna leave Mindoro and my friends are here.” Faust said without even understanding what Yang foretold. His ears only pricked like of rabbit's to the part where he just need to leave Gus and his friends and go to mainland to get strong, that's all he understood he did not catch the rest.

”Haha of course Tim, Roy and Nick have all enlisted in the program. By the time you guys join middle school you will be in the mainland and be studying in the best schools on this world. You just need to get stronger to be selected. I will recommend you to the people who evaluates so you two can go to the mainland with the rest of your friends.” Yang chuckles and smiles, because of how innocent and naive Faust is without having a proper planning or strategies.

”Tim, Roy and Nick are going too?” Faust ask as he got lost in thoughts and he's getting more confused.

After his training and daily routines, Faust visits Nick and calls Roy and Tim to gather at Nick's place before hand for the four of them to meet and talk to each other.

”So what is this about middle school in the Mainland?” Faust asks his 3 friends.

”We thought you knew Faust, Grandpa Yang always select some extraordinary people which will be evaluated by the Noble's and if you are worth it, you will be taken to mainland and assigned to military and you will get a higher position in the society. We are working hard towards it.” Nick narrates casually to Faust.

”What about you Tim? Are you gonna go there next year itself since you are in higher class than us?” Faust questions to Tim who was silent all this time.

”Oh ye Tim, are you gonna go next year?” Nick too asks Tim with curiosity.

”I was supposed to go last year if I were good, but unfortunately I need to delay one year. They will only take a bunch of kids from our island once every 2-3 years as they have already chosen half a dozen kids last year. I need to wait for two more years, because I couldn't make the cut last time. I think I will go with you guys. And I'm happy about it too.” Tim replies with a sense of agony in his tone and grief on his face.

”Is it that hard to get qualified?” Faust takes interest and again places a question before Tim as he tilts his head innocently.

”Not at all, it's just how they evaluate you is different. You will know when you take the evaluation.” Tim told Faust as he himself doesn't seem too sure of what will happen.

Faust becomes more enthusiastic with what all his friends had decided.

”Let's go to mainland together, live in a huge mansion together, lets work blood and sweat and finally reach our goals to be the best in whatever we do.” Roy leaves everyone with goosebumps with his words.

Faust is delighted with what Roy said, he was already looking forward to work together with everyone, spend time with them more people and reach their destinations together. This was exactly like a fairy tale for Faust which he had been dreaming from a long time.

And just with trainings and making his body rigid with all the hard work while learning martial arts.
