Max returned to the training hall. After knowing that Mina had gone into the private training room, he also headed there and knocked on the door.

Creak!

With a creaking sound, the door opened, and Max entered. Mina was standing in the middle of the room in her combat uniform. Max closed the door behind him and walked up to her. Mina was looking at him intently as if she was trying to discover something from his expression.

“You’ve returned a lot early than I expected,” Mina said while looking at him in the eyes.

“Ugh, Why would I take more time?” Max asked, slightly irritated by her attitude. He couldn’t understand what she was thinking by saying weird things to him.

“It’s nothing.” Mina didn’t reply and changed the topic. “So, shall we start?” She said three Earth golems appeared behind her.

Max didn’t say anything but looked at her up and down curiously. He was looking if she had some magic item to support her as she cast her spell because he didn’t hear her uttering any spell, but golems still appeared around her. However, after seeing that she didn’t have any magic item, his eyes still roamed over her body as he stared at her breasts and slender legs unconsciously.

“What are you looking at?” Mina’s slightly angry voice sounded, and he stopped staring at her.

“Oh, it’s nothing. I was just looking if you had any magic support item on you.” Max said, pointing at the golems behind her.

Mina squinted her eyes for a second and then shook her head. “It seems you don’t know this, but these types of items are mostly used by novice or one-star mages who still don’t have good control of mana to cast their spells more easily, but I, as a two-star mage, don’t need it.” She explained.

“Hmm, that makes sense.” Max nodded after hearing her. These magic items were merely for support; if you can do something on your way, would you need support.

“Now, if you are ready, shall we start?” Mina asked.

‘I’ll teach you a lesson today, little brat.’ She thought. She was angry at him and Eva for doing what they did and betraying her son, William. She was thinking of teaching him a lesson, but she couldn’t just beat him because she knew how much Ashton loves him, and he would be furious at her if she harmed him in any way. He might forsake her because she knew he didn’t have any affection for her.

That’s why when he told her that he was looking for a sparring partner, she asked him to be one. She didn’t want to lose a chance to teach him a lesson where no one could blame her. Even if he broke a few bones while sparring, no one could blame her while; her anger would calm down.

“Yeah, let’s do this.” Max also raised his right hand, and a ball of fire appeared above it in a few seconds.

“Go”

Mina and Max shouted at the same time. Earth golems dashed forward while Max also ran toward her without unleashing Fireball to attack.

He was startled to see earth golem speed. It was slightly faster than the golems in the trial. But it wasn’t a problem for Max. He, with double the agility of an average person, dodged the golems and arrived in front of Mina, who was controlling the golems and threw the small fireball at her.

Because he only wanted to get battle experience, he only conjured the fireball with only ten mana points. That way, he could also try to get better control over his mana and increase the efficiency of his attacks.

When the fireball was about to slam into her, a golem appeared in from of her, threw a simple punch at it and crushed it. Max immediately backed off, seeing that he was in the golem’s range, but as he withdrew, another golem appeared behind him and punched at him.

His hair stood on its end, feeling the danger behind him. He hurriedly conjured another fireball with 100 mana points. He threw it at the golem behind him, but as the distance between them was around five feet, When the fireball collided with the golem and exploded, The explosion also impacted him. He felt his back burning, and he was thrown toward Mina by the shockwave.

She didn’t hesitate, and the golem in front of her slapped at him.

“Crap!”

Max didn’t have time to dodge it and could only raise his hands to protect his head.

Bang!

Golem’s slap connected on his shoulder, and he flew to the side and slammed onto the floor.

“Hehe, You were right. You don’t have any fighting experience.” Mina scoffed at him, she was feeling a little better now.

Although she already knew it as he was always at home and never trained, she just said it as an excuse so that he won’t think that she was intentionally targeting him.

However, the truth was that she actually wanted to rough him up after she came to know that he has sexual relationship with her daughter in law but at the last moment, when the golem was about to slap him, she reduced the strength in the slap by half or he would end up with many broken bones. She didn’t want to make Ashton angry by beating him when he wasn’t even in the wrong, to begin with. Eva was the one who seduced him and willingly did it with him. Therefore, after thinking about this, she suppressed her anger and decided to ignore it.

“I think you should ask someone else to be your sparring partner because I don’t think I’m good at controlling my strength.” She started walking toward the door after finishing her sentence.

“Wait,” Max shouted as he got up.

“It’s fine. You can fight me however you want. Even if you seriously injure me, I won’t blame you. Moreover, I’ll be grateful to you. After all, I want real fighting experience which will help me in future.” He said resolutely with determination in his eyes.

Mina’s eyes flickered with astonishment. She didn’t expect him to be this determined. However, the truth was that even he hadn’t imagined that he would be this determined to become strong when he reincarnated in his current self. However, after experiencing beast tide, where lives were lost like it was normal and interacting with really powerful people in the legacy grounds and learning their experiences, he knew that if he didn’t become strong enough, then he won’t be able to live his life the way he wants.

That’s why he decided to be serious about it, and his resolution became even stronger after seeing Lilly working so hard for his sake. He didn’t want something to happen to her in future because he was weak.
