The first day passed like that. Silva made sure that everyone got a very good dose of beating. Dawn, Fay, Roxy, and Aaron all had the fight to survive but ultimately lost against their opponents.
When night came, Silva decided to watch everyone. The first person he went to was Dawn. She had faced off Fang that day, and he absolutely dominated her.
In speed, technique, and strength, she was absolutely helpless against him. Silva noticed how much she hated that.
She fought Fang with all she could. Her sword movements were perfect, and her fighting abilities showed that she was indeed a warrior.
But the gap in strength was too much, and Fang won. Fang simply used his speed to get into her blind spots and attack her with a bolt of lightning.
Even if she successfully blocked the attack, he would use his speed to counter and land a hit. But her build was a tough one.
She took attack after attack but refused to go down. No matter how much Fang punished her, she would still pick up her sword and attack again.
When Fang finally used more strength and knocked her out, Silva saw the anger in her eyes, so he knew that she hated that loss to her bones.
Silva found Dawn under a large tree. She was bent over, leaning on her sword that had been stabbed into the ground.
She was sweaty, her breath was unstable, her body was red and trembling, but there was something that stood out—something Silva noticed.
The fire in her eyes burned brightly. She wasn't done; she could still keep going.
Dawn pulled the sword out of the ground. She took a basic stance and started swinging her sword.
"Go faster, go faster," she said after every swing, forcing her slash to be faster. The sweat on her body scattered in all directions every time she swung the blade.
He would take a lot of time to watch Dawn and figure it out soon.
After Dawn, the next person he thought would be best to see now was Mike. Mike, just like Dawn, didn't take his loss well.
He hated the fact that he was that weak and that his sword style, which he polished for all that while, fell short.
He would definitely take the loss hard. Silva wanted to see how he was coping with it, but what he saw when he arrived there was not what he expected one bit.
He had simply expected that Mike would be training his mind out, but it was far more than training. Mike had chopped down several thick branches and sharpened them all.
He dug holes and put the spikes inside at different angles, creating a very dangerous place to be in, as one wrong step and the spikes would rip into his flesh badly.
Mike was running through this spike field at top speed, gracefully dodging the spikes. His eyes were focused as he moved, struggling to move faster and more agile.
Silva could understand why Mike would choose this training. His sword style focused on speed and agility.
But in his fight, he fell short, so he wanted to get better.
But Mike was getting tired, and as he got tired, his movements became sloppy, and the spikes started tearing into his skin. Yet he didn't stop.
Silva watched this and was a bit worried for Mike, but he wasn't going to stop him. From what he saw with Dawn and Mike, they didn't want to stop. They wanted to go above and beyond.
So he decided that he would leave them to train till they couldn't move. The aim of this program, after all, was to help them all evolve.
Their commitment would play a massive role in helping that come to pass. Silva left Mike alone to continue his training. He hoped that it would pay off in the end.
