[??? POV]

This world...

I ended everything...

My hunger...

It\'s unsatiable...

My mind...

It won\'t stop...

I... I want more...

[Third Person POV]

The day after, Charles and Agnus were in a training room. Before Agnus could instruct Charles, he had decided to check out his moves.

"Your movement is sluggish as ever. You put too much force into your attack."

In a few exchanges, Agnus already knew Charles\' lack of combat sense. For Charles, his fight would end in him overpowering his enemies, which had led any masteries he has in combat to be close to none.

While Agnus knew that Charles had no fighting style, in his head, he couldn\'t help but grumble at how messy Charles fought. Without his skill, Charles was not a big deal, and he would want Charles to know this in this battle.

Starting his attack, all the attempts that Charles made were rendered useless. His kicks, punch, and anything he did was ineffective to a master. Agnus handled all his attacks like he was a child.

"Let\'s stop. Watching this hurts my head."

Charles couldn\'t help but frown at his performance. This was the first time he had done something this poorly, and in front of Agnus, he felt like shit. The small spar, if you could call it, had ended just like that. This short battle would frustrate him to no end.

"Have you ever struggled in a battle?"

"No."

Those were Charles\' honest words. The time when he was escaping from the enemy in London couldn\'t be a battle since all he did was hide away from combat. Other than that, he never had a real fight.

Agnus could now see why Charles had fought like that. When you always win with brute strength, you will neglect the basics of combat, and Charles had done just that.

"Let\'s start once again, but this time you will be defending."

For the last spar, only Charles was on the offensive. Now Agnus wanted to check Charles\' defense. With Agnus\' beginning his attack, Charles tried his best to defend.

Agnus wasn\'t trying, but all of his guards had been broken. Instead of using his body, he used his skill to freeze Agnus.

Once used, Agnus felt some force trying to stop him. Like an unstoppable force, Agnus broke free easily, which shocked Charles.

With the power that Agnus unleashed, he didn\'t stop and continued to rush over to Charles. Any attempt to stop Agnus was useless, and with all that force hitting Charles, his body blew up, turning him into mush.

Agnus knew of Charles\' regeneration, so he didn\'t care if Charles felt pain. This was for him to see his weakness.

Right after the attack, all of Charles\' body pieces combined. To the usual eyes, it was a disgusting sight. This was what the power of curses looked like.

"Your unique skill is top notched, but like your offensive, you have too much opening."

It was frustrating for someone to point out your weakness. Charles had to endure this without lashing out because he knew that deep inside, Agnus was trying to help him.

Without saying else, Agnus went in for another hit. Instead of doing another powerful punch, he attacked from behind.

Deception, a tactic in fighting, was also an essential factor. No sane man would attack only from the front. Instead of a confrontation, Agnus went behind for a kick.

Being treated like a child, Charles fell flat on his face. After he tried to get up, he was kicked and sent flying up.

Up in the air, Agnus didn\'t stop. What he did was ruthless, but he had to take away Charles\'s arrogance.

Treated like ping pong was an experience one would never have had in their life. Agnus made it impossible for Charles to get down on the floor.

All these attacks were accurate and how made him fly to his desired destination.

Linsey and everyone that was in the room watching wasn\'t surprised by Agnus\' method. It was entertaining to watch, but most were surprised that Charles was almost unharmed by all these attacks. Which made it easier for Agnus to attack without

Charles tried his best to escape this situation, find a pattern in Agnus\' attack, and break free of this situation.

"Very good, you\'re learning something. Immortality is handy in all, but it would be a worse situation when you\'re trapped."

"Now I will invalidate your skills."

Charles\'s eyes widened when he heard that Agnus had a skill like that. He knew that there would be a time when an enemy had this, but he didn\'t think it would be in a situation like this.

The pain he nullified was gone. Agnus punches now packed a load of pain. Grunting in pain, Agnus didn\'t stop. He felt that Charles needed to learn what reality is.

Not only was it the pain that Charles needed to look for, but it was the injuries made by Agnus. One would think this was too much for a training session.

It was a good thing that Charles was durable. His past had his work in pain every day. In five minutes, Charles fainted from the stress he had accumulated.

"He\'s more durable than I thought."

That was one thing he could praise Charles for. With Charles down on the ground, Agnus\' men got potions and healed him. For the whole day, he went out of commission.

"Take him to a room. After he wakes up, tell him that there\'s a world ready to be attacked. He will need it for his pent up anger."

Agnus took his leave with his busy schedule. He was nice enough to hold up his schedule for this lesson. Agnus men left with him, seeing there was no reason to stay. On the other hand, Linsey would stay with Charles to see how he holds up.

The war between the two companies was still roaring for the whole day. Charles was out of commission and would soon launch an attack.
