"Huff...Huff...We're almost... there"
Luck looked at his brother who was struggling to breathe through pants but said nothing.
A week had passed by and the two had succeeded in getting the gravity to 10x.
(Unfortunately these things had to increase while we were in the middle of running).Luck thought with mirth as he suffered a similar fatigue to Luke.
Currently the gravity was 15x.
Although they were just fourteen, their small figures had already began to bulge with small muscles.
They were barely noticeable but still counted anyways.
They soon reached the village front barrier as Luke immediately flopped onto the ground, followed by a similar feeling Luck.
Unfortunately they're work wasn't done as they began to do pushups.
"We've made good progress "Luke remarked lightly as he strained h9s body to do several in succession.
"Not to those too"Luck remarked sullenly. In fact, it was their parents themselves who had designed this sadistic level of tort...er...training.
(And we're masochists for doing it!).
Luck pushed those thoughts aside as opened his status page.

Luck nodded in satisfaction as he closed his soul book.
His brother's stats were also identical to his,which meant the both of them were the strongest fourteen year olds in the village.
(Then again, we already were)he thought with a smug smile.
"Let's spar a little "
Luck's smile widened as Luke's words floated into his ears.
The two slowly stood up as they got out their weapons, entering battle stances while observing each other.
Dust flew as they abruptly kicked the ground launching themselves towards themselves.
Luke stabbed at his brother but Luck merely sidestepped as he slashed at his brother's open side.
*Clang *
Luke managed to block with his other blade as he swiftly leapt back, just managing to dodge the crook of Luck's staff.
Two Fireballs appeared in his palms as he instantly threw one at his brother who dodged effortlessly.
A black spike suddenly emerged from the ground , catching Luke off guard as he lost his balance while trying to evade.
He knew his brother was in the air and from the corner of his eye, he could see the black whip that swung towards him from Luck's back.
Luke threw his remaining ball in defence.
*Boom*
The two spells collided and disappeared, leaving smoke that obscured their vision.
Luck's senses immediately began to scream causing him to lunge out of that spot.
*Flash *
A gash appeared on the ground where Luck had been standing.
He quickly activated Evading Shadow in an attempt to confuse his brother.
As the smoke cleared, he spotted Luke, as he snuck up behind him.
He leapt out of the shadows in ambush as he aimed his staff and swung with full force.
Pillars of flame erupted from Luke's feet effectively missing a blow that would have ended the spar. He turned around as he smirked menacingly.
"Fireball:Barrage!"
Like a catapult machine, Luke threw several fireballs, all in the direction of Luck.
*Boom**Boom**Boom*...
Four fireballs hit a bone shield and it shattered afterwards.
An ethereal hand suddenly shot out of the smoke towards Luck.
Luck leapt away as he sank into the shadows racing towards Lukr who's resolve seemed to be cracking.
(I only have mana for two more spells)Luke thought as he watched his brother close the distance.
Luke pluged his sword at the shadow but was blocked by Luck who had emerged as he grinned darkly.
"Skeleton Spike:Cage!"
Spikes formed around Luke's feet as they attempted to impale him.
Fortunately, Luck leapt in evasion, but not before one managed to hit home.
*Mmmmnnnn*
Luke suppressed a scream through gritted teeth as he did his best to ignore the pain, watching his brother dash towards him.
Luck's Perception rang again, informing him to get out of the way.
And get out he did
"Ethereal Slash"
A blue translucent sword arc passed by Luck striking where he had just been.
Luck couldn't afford to waste such an opportunity as he closed the distance between him and his brother.
In panic, Luke performed a thrust with his blade.
Unfortunately, Luck crouched in time as he swung his dagger at his twin's abdomen.
*Clang *
Luke blocked with his second blade as he swung the outstretched one.
*Clang *
The other sword met Luck's shepherd staff as they began to struggle for dominance.
Luck surprisingly smiled at his brother causing a sense of dread to creep into him as he immediately backed away.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
A black Whip hit his side, hurling him several feet away.
*Thud *
He landed painfully but quickly tried to get up.
"You lose" Luck said as he brought the crook of his staff to Luke's throat.
