175 Chapter 175 : Are you asking me for a Date?!
The formation practise continued until the evening. Master Li separated the people from the back end and conducted a few demo fighting sessions. As the lunch was also arranged for everyone, the fighters worked till the evening without taking any rest.
Master Li did this to test the endurance of the fighters. He also changed the positions of a few members to bring balance to the formation. There is not much work left for Das.
Instead of acting leisurely, Das took this training session seriously. He observed all the changes happening in the formation during the fighting and movement techniques involved in different positions of the formation.
He took note of all the traps and tricks involved in this large-scale formation. Till evening, he endured his boredom with a learning process. Finally, at five o'clock in the evening, Master Li put a full stop to the formation training.
All the fighters were deprived of energy as they did not get any time to rest except for the half-hour lunch break. Master Li stood on the raised platform to deliver the ending speech.
"Everyone, the amount of endurance you showed today is just ten percent of what you are going to face in the actual competition."
"For some of you, the day of the blood duel would be the last day of your life. So, tomorrow is a free day for everyone. Spend your day as if it is the last day of your life and prepare for the battle in the day after tomorrow." Master Li spoke in a loud tone.
The entire crowd fell into a strange emotion and the training ground became dead silent. In the last few days, everyone has been working daily to prepare for the blood duel. In this process, they never thought of death.
But suddenly, after hearing Master Li's words, everyone started thinking about the dangers in this competition.
Das stood in the last row of the formation, and he is staring at Ruth with a deep focus. He did not take Master Li's words seriously. He is feeling happy that tomorrow Ruth will be free without any burden of training.
Slowly, people started leaving the training ground with heavy hearts. Ruth gathered all her students in one corner to say the same thing. Das waited until she finished her gathering with her students and approached her in slow steps.
Ruth stopped moving after seeing Das, who is approaching her with a playful smile.
"Stop looking at me like that." Ruth commented seriously while checking her surroundings for any onlookers.
"What are your plans for tomorrow?" Das asked her without turning his focus from her face. free(w)ebnovel(.)com
"I will be busy with my training." Ruth replied with a stoic face.
"After two days, we might not be in this world. There is always a certain chance of death in these competitions. So, I want to spend my time with you. Will you come out with me tomorrow?" Das asked with great expectation.
"Are you asking me for a date?" Ruth questioned Das with a surprised face after hearing his request.
"Exactly..." Das gave a quick reply.
"What do you think about me? I'm not a teenager. Stop wasting your time." Ruth spoke in an angry tone while acting all serious.
"I don't care whether you are a teenager or an old grandma. I want to spend my time with you tomorrow. Will you agree or not?" Das asked in a straight-forward manner.
"Even if you ask me a hundred times, my answer will be the same. So, stop forcing me. Take any of my students on a date. I won't mind it." Ruth replied while avoiding his piercing gaze.
"So, that is your final answer. Then listen to my decision. On the day of the blood duel, I will fight in the same position as you. The opponent will need to take my life to reach your position." Das said in a serious tone and started walking away from Ruth.
He is playing the reverse drama to subdue Ruth, who is hiding her feelings while acting all serious. She is afraid to show her weak side and express her feelings because of the age gap between her and Das.
More than that, she is not ready to face another situation like Finn's. But Das, who found her weakness, started exploiting it with great ease.
As expected, Ruth hurriedly ran behind him and stood directly opposite him. She did not let him move forward.
"You've already expressed your opinion. So, don't try to stop me now." Das continued his blackmailing drama with a serious face. Inside, he is laughing merrily after seeing the worried look in Ruth's eyes.
"I will come with you tomorrow. But you need to promise me something in return." Ruth asked with a straight face. This time, she did not avoid his gaze. fr eenovelkiss.com
"What is it...?" Das asked with a sweet smile after getting a positive reaction from her.
"Promise me that you will avoid the fight on the day of the blood duel. You must not join the fight, even though I'm in a dire state. If you are okay with it, I will accept your proposal."
Das went into a deep thought after hearing her request. She is indirectly asking him, not to save her, even though her life is at risk.
Das said OK to her after a short delay. Even though he promised her not to get involved in the fights, he did not take it seriously.
In order to take Ruth on a date, he promised her first.
But who knows what will happen in the future? Some promises are meant to be broken, and for some promises, we might need to pay the price in the long run. No one knows what future holds until they reach that moment.
After taking a promise from Das, Ruth agreed to go on a date with him.
"I will be here at seven o'clock tomorrow morning. Don't forget your promise, and don't tell anyone about our date. I don't want anyone to spoil our sweet time." Das said with a happy smile and left the training centre to plan the day for tomorrow.
A shy smile appeared on the stoic face of Ruth. Her cheeks became red while looking at the back of receding Das, who is walking in a jumping action with great joy.
