"Brother.. you are too much of a spartan." Amanda said. "It won't be more efficient if we just try to dodge as much as possible instead of wasting time doing push-ups?"

"That would usually be the case, but since I will heal you guys if I cause even a small bit of damage, we have to find another way to motivate you," Leon explained.

"You don't have to heal us; we already used to fight while injured." Amanda frowned. "If you attack and damage us, I think it will motivate us more than enough to dodge the attacks."

"Well.. I guess that's true." Leon said.

Leon began to shot Water Bullets in fast succession without giving them room to breathe. Betty and Sasha were the types of soldiers who focused on quick attacks, so at the start of the session, they had an easy time following and dodging the Water Bullets. Amanda was also very skillful in that regard since she was an archer; she had a good eye and could somewhat easily dodge the Water Bullets with a bare minimum of movement. The only one who was getting hit almost continually getting hit by the Water Bullets was Hector; his movements were too rough. Maybe it was due to his personality or due to the fact that he always fought on the frontline protecting his friends, but he wasn't good at dodging projectiles.

"Ouch! It hurts like hell!" Hector said.

Maybe Leon was trying a little hard to hit Hector, but he wouldn't admit that even if someday hell freezes over. Regardless, even though they managed to dodge the projectiles for a while, it was hard to keep that level of caution for such a long time. Eventually, Amanda, Betty, and Sasha began to get hit and even bleed, so Leon had to stop. He wanted to make his sister even stronger, but there was no point in injuring her more than the necessary. Even he didn't grow all that much overnight. The important thing was to keep improving little by little.

"I guess it's my time to dodge," Leon said. "Who wants to attack first?"

"I will do it! With pleasure!" Hector said.

It looked like Hector noticed that Leon punished him a little for making a move on his sister while he was away. Regardless, even though Hector already could use the bullet spell of all elements, he started by using Water Bullet too. Still, Leon easily dodged his attacks because Hector's target was obvious.

"This guy.. I guess he deserves a real beating."

Leon recalled the time in high school when he was an idiot, not an intellectual idiot, but someone, who found fun doing stupid things. When they had nothing better to do, Leon and Hector played soccer, but not usual soccer. They played to kick the ball and hit each other's balls. It was truly stupid, and Hector was trying to do that again.

Anyway, since Hector was training the four elements equally, the speed and power of his attacks weren't that awesome yet. Even when he managed to hit Leon, it only cut a part of his clothes; it didn't even leave a scratch.

"Hector.. why are you only aiming at brother's lower half?" Amanda looked at Hector with cold eyes.

"Haha, don't look at me like that.." Hector forced a smile. "It is just a joke between men.. anyway, I'm out of mana. Who will be next?"

".. I guess I will." Amanda sighed.

Now Leon had to be a little more careful, Amanda meditated almost every single day of the last four years since her attacks also depended on her intelligence. Unlike Hector, who trained all elements equally, Amanda focused mostly on earth and water. Earth projectiles could stun her targets if she hits them in the right place, and she also could slow them down with ice. Leon tasted a bit of those, several times. His mentality was lower than his sister's intelligence, and since he didn't have a lot of health, her attacks hurt like hell. Leon also wanted to more or less get used to the tension of fighting while injured, when he saw his arm bleeding like a fountain, he couldn't help but heal himself.

Congratulations! You have learned the skill: Earth Resistance.

You obtained 01 status points.

Leon tried to endure the pain as much as possible, he could use Mana Armor to block her attacks, but there was no point in training if he does that. Even though Leon tried to resist as much as possible, Amanda stopped after hitting him a few times.

"Brother.. how much health do you have?" Amanda hesitated.

"Right now, I have twenty-five," Leon answered. "Wearing my armor, I have seventy-five."

"Twenty-five?!" Amanda shouted. "Why didn't you increase your health?"

"I didn't need health to cross the ocean; I needed mana," Leon explained. "So, I focused on increasing my mana and recovery as much as possible."

"Man.. you are insane." Hector frowned. "I get it that you barely get wounded, but still.. if information about this spreads, you could become the target of some assassins."

"Don't worry about that; I have a few tricks to catch them when the time comes," Leon said.

"I'm sorry, brother." Amanda lowered her head. "But I can??t keep doing this while watching getting wounded like that, much less by my hand."

".. I guess it can't be helped." Leon sighed. "Even though you are only the one nearby who can wound me, I guess I will have to train without feeling the tension. Anyway, I will use a defensive spell, so you can attack me without worrying about anything."

Amanda hesitated a little, but once she saw her attacks didn't cause any damage to Leon, she lost her hesitation, and they resumed their training.
