24 Principal Flender meets with New Students (2/2)

He then looked at Rongrong and thought about something and said, ”Tian, take Rongrong and let her run 20 laps around the field.”

When Rongrong heard his words, she was nearly frightened off as she had never even run as much as 2 laps of a small field. She looked at Ryusei who nodded and after that everyone dispersed themselves from there while Ryusei led her to the field.

After reaching the field, he looked towards her and said to her with a small smile on his face, ”Alright, now let's start your training.” Rongrong pouted as she looked towards him and said, ”Brother Tian, I don't want to run. Please convince the Principal as you did before, he should listen to you.”

Ryusei shook his head and said in a calm voice, ”I can indeed convince him so that you don't have to run but did you even think about it for even a second why he said that. Just think, you are a support type and their weakness are their weak physique and low stamina.”

”Everyone who knows about your Clan will target you and what would you do if you don't have enough stamina to survive that type of fight or you couldn't protect yourself. There will of course be your teammates who will protect you with everything they got but sometime that is not enough. I want to ask, what would happen then?”

He then paused for her answer and when she stayed silent, he said in a calm and a heartless voice, ”You will get severely injured or even die.” His tone got a lot softer as he said, ”Do you truly want me to regret that I couldn't protect you?”

She shook her head in denial as she didn't want him to do something like that, he was her first friend, she was happy when she was with him, so she didn't want to be a burden for him and make him feel sad if something happened to her. She didn't want to leave him.

She looked towards the field and said in a bit embarrassed tone, ”I will try but I haven't run such a large field in my entire life.” Ryusei chuckled a bit and said, ”That is of no problem. That is the reason why I am here. I will help you when necessary, I will tell you when to have your rest and when to start running once again. I am the one who trained Oscar so I know a bit about training a support type.”

She didn't say anything as she didn't want him to be disappointed in her so she started to running around the field. After running for about 5 minutes, she was quite tired and wanted to rest but she saw Ryusei still running with her and forced her body to run more so as to not disappoint him.

After a minute, Ryusei looked at her and said, ”Let's stop now. We are nearly done with this one lap besides the Principal didn't put a time limit about till when you should complete the 20 laps.”

She nodded as she was quite tired and fell down on the ground while huffing crazily. Ryusei started to talk with her and said, ”So, what did you do in these years? Is your family fine?”

She gasped for some time to catch her breath and then said, ”Well, I didn't really do all that much in these years. I just read the information about the continent and studied books about some other things to increase my knowledge. My family is fine just that father was a bit unhappy that you didn't accept his offer to come to the Clan.”

Ryusei's eyes narrowed as he thought about the possible reasons for the invitation but it didn't seem like Rongrong was finished as she continued speaking, ”He said that it was because you were the most intelligent boy he has ever seen. He wanted to have your help for some task in the future.”
