I Can Summon All the Gods

In the morning, Locke changed into a casual white training suit and followed Athena to the square.

Outside the castle, Kotter asked someone to reclaim a large open space which was more than enough for training. The open space was filled with training equipment.

"Kotter, is it suitable that Miss Athena to coach Master Locke?"

Looking at the girl in front of Locke, Kerton was a little suspicious. Anyway, Miss Athena looked like just a weak girl.

"Don't forget that Miss Athena can find the loophole in level-1 fighting skills. Her vision and insight are not something ordinary people have," Kotter said who was standing next to Kerton.

When Kerton gave him the revised books on fighting skills, he was shocked. As a knight of level 1, his feeling for these fighting skills was even deeper than Kerton's. He tried it later according to the revision. After the change of Miss Athena, the power of the level-1 fighting skills was close to that of the level-2 fighting skills!

Kerton smiled awkwardly and nodded without saying anything.

There was still a certain distance between the two of them from Athena, and they could still talk freely while Locke felt a little scared.

In front of him, Athena's face was as cold as ice. She looked nither peaceful when she was reading, nor sweet as a girl next to the door when Locke told her all kinds of legends about Icacia Continent. She looked like a hell drillmaster.

Under the strong cold pressure from Athena, Locke asked carefully, "Which item should we start?"

"Put them on."

Athena pointed at the four training iron rings which weighed ten pounds. Her tone was cold and there was no room for a retort.

Locke was obedient and put the four rings on his hands and feet. He felt it by himself. Although his body was indeed much heavier, it was not difficult.

Of course, it was also because he had used the body refining fluid that the physical strength in his body had increased a lot.

"Do a warm-up first." Seeing that Locke was ready, Athena nodded and continued in a cold voice, "Run around Lister for three laps first."

To better manage the territory, the two lords of Lister asked people to build roads around Lister, which were connected when Locke came here.

"How many... How many laps?"

Locke was stunned. Did he hear it wrong? Although Lister wasn't a big territory, a circle was at least 70 or 80 kilometers.

"Three laps. Hurry up!"

Athena repeated the number, but there was a hint of threat in her tone.

The coldness made Locke shiver. He didn't waste any more time and began to trot.

"Wow, the 40-pound iron ring is for our daily training. Our master hasn't received any special training, but he uses it directly. Is it a little too heavy for him?"

"I don't think it's a big deal. Look at Master Locke. There's no unsteadiness or chaos in his steps."

"When did Master Locke's physical strength become so popular?"

Kotter and Kerton were still discussing in the distance. As for Becky and Sam, they led retinues to help residents cut wood.

"Let's follow, in case Master Locke is physically exhausted and in danger."

After the discussion, Kotter and Kerton mounted their horses and followed him, keeping a watchful eye on the side to prevent Locke from being in danger.

20 minutes later, Locke disappeared from the training ground. Athena didn't follow him. She sat down on the chair beside her directly and began to read.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

In an hour, Locke had run 20 kilometers. At this time, he was sweating heavily, his breath began to be chaotic, and his steps began to be unsteady.

Kotter and Kerton looked at each other, and both of them saw the deep shock in their eyes. 20 kilometers running with heavyweight was almost as equal as the regular exercise of retinues!

"Adjust your breath."t

Just as Locke's breathing became more and more chaotic, Athena's voice rang in his ear. Locke looked around and didn't find Athena except for Kotter and Kerton.t

'Gods are powerful.'

Sighing in his heart, Locke quickly adjusted his breath and continued to run.

Then, every time he breathed and ran disorderly, the voice of Athena's guidance would appear in time.

More than 3 hours later, Locke finished a lap and began the second lap.

Finishing a half lap of the second lap, Locke had staggered and couldn't move as if his feet were filled with lead.

Several times, Kotter and the others wanted to help him, but Locke refused. They could see that Locke's body was almost reaching its limit when he finished the first lap.

So they wanted to talk with Athena and asked for a rest for Locke. But before they could say anything, they were forced back by Athena's glance.

"Hold on! Hold on! Take a few more steps!"

Locke stared ahead and murmured. His lungs seemed to be about to explode, and his throat was also burning. He was very painful.

Another half an hour passed.

"Puff!"

Locke fell to the ground and lost consciousness gradually.

"One and a half laps, not qualified. Forget it... Barely qualified."

Before his consciousness was completely blurred, a blurry beautiful figure appeared in his sight.

When Locke woke up, it was already noon. He felt a sharp pain all over his body.

After lunch, Locke was taken to the training ground by Athena.

On the training ground, Locke was holding a 40 pound stone pier. His legs were trembling, and his back was already wet with sweat. It was difficult for him to do a squatting stance.

"Master Locke fainted in the first training. Miss Athena is too strict."

"I'm afraid Master Locke will suffer a lot in the future."

Looking at Locke on the ground, Kotter and Kerton sighed. They finally realized that no matter how they tried to persuade Locke and Athena, it was useless.

Miss Athena and Master Locke were willing to train in this way. No one could stop them.

If they hadn't seen Athena with their own eyes, how could they have thought that the usually quiet and elegant girl would have such a cold and harsh side?

"But I'm still curious about how Miss Athena caught up with us." When he thought of the morning when Locke fainted, Athena suddenly appeared not far away from them, which confused Kotter.

Kerton was also confused. But they were so concerned about Locke that they didn't notice how Athena appeared at that time.

...

In the evening.

"Today's physical training is over."

Looking at Locke who persisted in train hard, Athena's emotionless eyes flashed a trace of satisfaction, and her face gradually softened.

"Bang!"

Locke dropped the stone pier on his body, which left a deep mark on the ground.

Locke fell to the ground, staring blankly at the red sunset. This day was the most tiring of his two lives.

After a rustling sound, Locke found Athena sitting next to him. At this moment, Athena became the sensible and gentle goddess again.

The sunset glow in the sky made a large area of gorgeous clouds red. The young boy and young girl bathed in the glow of the setting sun, forming a quiet and charming picture.

"This is the practice method of the small universe I prepared for you."

Athena tapped the air with her finger, and several pieces of paper filled with the method practice fell beside Locke's head.

"The practice method of the small universe?"

Resting his hands on the back of his head, Locke began to recall all the methods he knew about the practice method, but he couldn't find anything related to the small universe.

"It's different with meditation with mages which is to communicate with elements and make elements enter the body. The practice method of the small universe is based on the body of practice people and to develop the potential of practice people, practicing your small universe."

Athena explained in a soft voice, with a smile at the corners of her mouth.

Locke nodded and didn't say anything. He enjoyed the beautiful moment quietly.

He found that the girl's face was more and more charming in the gentle light.
