Chapter 4 : First Training

Timothee could only curse the system when he got another annoying quest from the System, he could only hope that Armand wouldn't scold him later when he came late.

His System Favor Point has been reduced again by the System, Timothee could no longer curse the System that kept giving him strange quests.

“Then, what should I do now!”  said Timothee furiously.

There was no response from the system, Timothee decided to sit down on the sofa, and then started thinking about what he should do to pass the time.

A moment later, Timothee had an idea that suddenly flashed through his head.  "I'd better pay off the Daily Quests given by the system!"  Timothee immediately stood up from his seat.

By doing a little warm up to make it safer to do the quest.  Timothee took a position to do push ups as instructed in his daily quest.

"Status!"

A status window appears in front of Timothee, while doing his push ups, Timothee pays attention to the status window whether the quest has started.

[Daily Quest :

 100x Push ups (3/100)

 100x Sit-ups (0/100)

 30 minutes of meditation (0/30)

 Run 5km (0/5) ]

“No way!  Totally changed!”  Timothee became even more excited as he watched his daily quests begin to change.

However, Timothee decided not to continue doing his push ups, preferring to finish his meditation part instead.

For some reason, after seeing the information regarding his current body, Timothee had a bad feeling about the training he would be doing with Armand later.

It would be bad if he didn't complete all the quests the system gave him, he might be returned to his dead body in his old world.

Timothee looked around his room, looking for a comfortable place to do his meditation.

After observing for a long time, Timothee decided to take a spot by the window and took a seat there.

"System there is something I want to ask."  Timothee called the system to ask some questions.

[What does the Host want to ask?]

Getting used to the System's cold voice, Timothee was no longer surprised, "How can I meditate?"  asked Timothee confused, the problem was he never meditated in his old world.

Timothee was confused when he didn't hear a reply from the System, it was unusual for this bastard system to silence with him.

After waiting for a short time for a reply from the system, finally a cold, system-like voice answered Timothee's question.

[Turns out Host was stupid enough not to find a way to meditate.  The system will send a guide regarding the Host question]

The sound of teeth chattering was heard from Timothee, this bastard system dared to insult him when he was not allowed to insult the System.

With tightly clenched fists, Timothee held back his anger and waited for the guide the system would send him.

Ding!

[Guide has been sent to Host's inbox]

After hearing the notification, Timothee no longer wanted to ask how to open the inbox, he might be insulted again by this bastard system.

“Inbox,” Timothee muttered under his breath trying to called his inbox window like he called his status window.

As expected, a transparent display showing his inbox window directly appeared in front of Timothee, he could see that there was an unread message in his inbox.

Timothee quickly checked the message and studied the manual sent by the System.

Timothee spent a few minutes reading the guide, after quite understanding how to do it, Timothee began to practice what he had learned.

As it turned out, meditation was not as difficult as Timothee had imagined.  In the guidance sent by the System, he only needed to close his eyes, relax his body and clear his mind.

The System guide says that meditating can help Timothee's vulnerable body to become stronger and also to facilitate the flow of mana that is not steady in his body.

After that, Timothee fell into a meditation that we don't know when it would end, just praying that Timothee didn't meditate too long and didn't make Armand wait too long.

 .  .  .

Timothee woke up from his meditation when he heard a notification from the system informing him that his quest had been completed.

Ding!

[Quest 2 Completed.  Reward has been sent to Host's inbox]

Instantly Timothee remembered that he had a training appointment with Armand, “Damn it!  What's the time now?"  Timothee quickly turned his head to the clock on the wall and saw the time on it.

“Shit!  It's been over an hour since I left Armand."  With quick steps, Timothee came out of his room and ran into the backyard to meet Armand.

Timothee silently prayed that Armand would not be angry with him for being so, so late.

When Timothee reached the backyard, he saw Armand sitting under a big tree with a glare on his face.

Timothee immediately ran toward Armand and directly apologized to him.  “Armand, I'm sorry I made you wait too long!”  With a gasping breath Timothee bowed his body.

“Young Master, are you all right?”  Armand immediately got up and helped Timothee when he saw his young master was exhausted.

"I'm sorry I made you wait," said Timothee again, he really didn't mean to make Armand wait this long.

"It's okay, Young Master.  Should we continue with the training?”  asked Armand increasingly worried about his Young Master's condition.

Even though his young master was twenty years old, he couldn't take the hard training because of a mysterious illness that made him sick frequently.

“Of course, my body is still great," replied Timothee.

“Alright, if Young Master says so.  Are you strong enough to run Timothee?”  asked Armand getting serious now because he is Timothee teacher  since childhood so he is quite familiar with him.

"Yes," answered Timothee curtly as he stood in front of Armand.

"Since you're late, then run around this yard ten times," said Armand, starting the training portion he had prepared for Timothee.

Without another word, Timothee started to run around the backyard of his house which luckily wasn't too large, it seemed that he could complete his daily quest after carrying out Armand's punishment.

Yes, Timothee knew it was his fault because he was too late so he didn't disobey the order Armand gave him.  After all, he also needed this practice to complete his daily quests.

Timothee wasn't worried at first when he was told to run around ten times, but after doing five laps, he just felt something wrong was happening inside his body.

"Geez!  I forgot this body is so weak,” thought Timothee forgetting that he didn't have the stamina of normal people in general.

[System suggests slowing down your pace, so your stamina can maintained]

Timothee heard the system's cold voice giving him some advice.  Unable to argue with System, Timothee silently did as System said.

Luckily he had learned to meditate before, while running Timothee tried to catch his breath so his body could hold on and not fall.

 .  .  .

After finishing running around, Timothee directly faced Armand who was monitoring him from a distance.

Returning out of breath, Timothee stood before Armand.  “Young Master, sit down and have a drink.”  Arman instantly gave a bottle of water to Timothee and told him to rest.

Armand actually didn't think his young master would succeed in completing the discipline he gave.

Armand was starting to think it seemed like Timothee was really serious about his training.

"Do your body okay?"  asked Armand quite worried about Timothee, he didn't want his young master to force his body.

“On my limit, but still okay,” replied Timothee, nodding his head.

Trying to steady his breathing again, while silently called his status window to see the progress of his daily quest.

[Daily Quest :

- 100x Push ups (1/100)

- 100x Sit-ups (0/100)

- 30 minutes of meditation (60/30) (Completed)

- Run 5km (5/5) (Completed) ]

Timothee smiled in relief as his daily quests had begun to be completed one by one, it was only a matter of two other exercises.

Even though his body ached in several places, he could still endure it.  Doing a few more training wouldn't be a problem for Timothee.

However, just as Timothee was about to straighten himself up, his steps wobbled back a little and his head started to spin a little.
