It was late in the night and one day before the nationals officially started.
For the past week, Karuza High's team had been hard at work training, except Kiernan, who was keeping it easy.
He heeded the warning that he should take it easy while he was getting used to his Martial King body.
It was a bad idea on his part to fight against Snake, but luckily, the fight ended quickly before it had some serious consequences.
Thus, he hadn't been training and had been just enjoying the air-conditioned cottage.
At the current moment, Kiernan was sitting on the beach of the training village, his bare feet sinking into the sand.
It felt like yesterday when he was training here, on the beach, with his sweat clinging to his body and legs burning with exhaustion.
People of the village saw him at the beach. Some of them planned to do some night swimming, but after seeing him there, they changed their minds.
They didn't want to inconvenience him.
