April came with my dinner on a tray after a few minutes and left. The tray had lots of delicious food I didn't even know the name of.
I ate my dinner and then fell asleep right away.
The next morning~
I was woken up by a knock on the door. Thinking it was April I said,"five more minute". Then came a voice "no can do, it's training time".
I immediately got up. It was father's voice. I wanted to avoid them for some time but it seems god is not on my side. And what was it about training?
Father's voice came again," get ready, I am waiting". "Okay!", I said.
I quickly took a shower and got ready. I wore a black leather pant with a tank top that I found in the closet. "This outfit is good for training I guess?", I mumbled to myself.
I went out the door and saw father talking to a servant. I went towards him and said,"what is it about training?".
"Before losing ur memory, u went to training every morning. It is important to stay in shape if u wanna do well in the academy. The academy is not only for studying, it also trains students to fight and as a werewolf it is very much intense. it will be a problem if u cannot fight", dad said.
I have to fight? What a bother.
"Let's go to the training hall", dad said and started walking ahead. I hurried after him.
Soon we were inside the training hall. There was no one else except us. " This is the spare training hall I made for u to train. The others are training in the main hall", dad said.
"Now enough talking, I will attack u and u will defend yourself", dad said. As soon as he said that he lunged forward to land a hit on me.
"Wait, I lost my memories. How can I fight-"
Almost immediately I dodged it by reflex.
What just happened?." Your head might have forgotten the training we did but your muscles remember it", dad said with a proud smile.
"Was I strong before I lost my memories?", I asked curious. " You were average among werewolves but u have endless potential to be better. You had begged to let me personally teach you and you have just been training for about two months. And you improved tremendously", dad said proudly.
That means I can also fight like the werewolves that I always read about. How cool!
Even though it's not about me I feel all ticklish.
"Put down that weird smile u have right now, we are still training", dad said lunging forward to land a punch. I dodged just barely.
Brutal
And so the training went on for about two hours. I was exhausted to the point of fainting but dad looked relaxed.
"We need to work hard this week. U have gotten a little sloppy after losing your memories. Training will be on the same time every morning and evening", dad said looking at my exhausted self.
"Wait, not just morning but evening too?!", I said flabbergasted. How am I supposed to do that without meeting hell?
"You have to join the academy in less than a week. If we don't train in the evening, u cannot even win against a trained human".
I looked at him shocked. Does that mean he went easy on me this time?.
Am I fucked for this week?
After 5 days~
"You should swing that sword harder", dad said as I started swinging the sword more harder.
I have been training for five days and I have realised that my endurance level is now on par with dad. Even though I am a werewolf, is that normal? I feel like I have improved much faster that what is considered normal. Or is this because of the original owner's training. I don't know but it is benifiting me so.
"You have done well, you picked these lessons fast. We had little time so I could only teach u the basics but it is enough for now", dad said. " Does that mean I don't have to train now?", I asked beaming.
"Don't be so happy. You are going to train much harder in the academy, they show no mercy to weaklings", dad said crushing my excitement.
Oh shucks
"Since u have to leave for the academy the day after tomorrow, u can rest one day. But we are gonna have to train your wolf today and tomorrow. Can you transform?", dad asked.
"I don't know how to transform", I said bluntly. Dad looked baffled. " Well, have u tried?", he asked.
"Not really", I shook my head. I wanted to try but I didn't know how to.
He sighed. " Okay, today's training is how to transform to your wolf", he said.
He began explaining," when someone transform for the first time, they go through unbearable pain. Well it is basically all about bones being broken and rejoining to make a structure of a wolf but you won't go through pain as you have already gone through transition", he said.
Good for me then.
"You just have to believe in yourself and want to be transformed to your wolf. It's all about feeling anyway. You just have to feel with your wolf self", he said.
Easier said than done.
He continued, " close your eyes and imagine yourself as your wolf". He said and I did. I imagined myself transitioning as a brown werewolf with blue eyes since I now have brown hair and blue eyes.
Suddenly I heard something cracking or rather my bones cracking.
I felt like every bone of mine was breaking but without the pain. And suddenly I was in all fours.
I had transformed as a werewolf!!
