At least it was much better than sleeping alone until the afternoon and watching the sun gradually set in the sky.
The old drunkard Zenin Naobito wasn't wrong. Since that brat came to his place, he had indeed gained a lot of the scarce thing called "the aura of a living person."
Toji squinted his eyes, then glanced at Zenin Kiyoshi, whose legs were already starting to tremble. He immediately shouted sternly:
"Keep your legs straight! Don't bend them! A slight difference in battle can be fatal!"
Regarding Zenin Kiyoshi's training requirements, Toji initially had the attitude of just casually going through the motions. After all, he knew his own body best.
Toji had a very clear understanding of the source of his current combat power: seven parts effort, three parts luck, and the remaining ninety parts were purely talent.
His combat power was strongly related to his almost unreasonable pure physical strength. Some things like grabbing air with his bare hands, moving at the speed of sound, and super dynamic vision capture were all brought to him by the Heavenly Restriction.
If there was anything Toji had practiced over the years, it would probably be the various weapon fighting styles he learned on a whim when he was a teenager.
He had secretly learned those things from the ordinary guards of the Zenin clan. To say he secretly learned them, he actually just glanced at them a few times and completely knew the content of their usual training.
The exertion of muscles, the center of gravity of the body, the use of weapons...
He only needed to glance at it to perfectly memorize it. After just a few times of practice, he could even redevelop those guys' things based on his own physical strength.
The strength of this body, exchanged for all his cursed energy, had almost reached the peak of this world in terms of pure fighting skills.
And Toji, who was very clear about his own situation, had no expectation that there would be any effect in the early stages of teaching Zenin Kiyoshi. At most, it was just to build up his body so that he could defeat a few small-time thugs without relying on cursed energy.
However, when he really started to train Zenin Kiyoshi, he was surprised to find that this brat's physical strength was actually the strongest he had seen in all these years, besides himself!
After having Zenin Kiyoshi arm-wrestle with him with all his might, Toji estimated that Zenin Kiyoshi's current physical strength was about 10% of his own. And it should be known that the current Zenin Kiyoshi was only a child of about ten years old, and he had not even reached the developmental period. When the developmental period began, his physical strength might even surpass his own!
Thinking of this, Toji stared at Zenin Kiyoshi for a long time with the eyes of looking at a monster and a fellow creature.
In the following days, Toji went from an initial lazy attitude to secretly buying CDs that explained fighting techniques at night. At the same time, he would also practice the lessons he would teach the next day and make various lesson plans and reviews that night.
Even Toji himself didn't know why he would do so many strange things. He was clearly the person who hated trouble the most, but perhaps this is what it means to be human.
A large part of the people in this world live their final purpose not for themselves.
The underlying logic of these people is as if they need to be relied on and needed by others. If this reliance and need is one day cut off, they will even begin to doubt their own value in this world.
Zenin Kiyoshi was actually aware of these things, but he was not prepared to use a very drastic way to change Toji's approach.
A person who has lived in an emotional desert for a long time, and accidentally obtains something that can quench his thirst, naturally cannot be told things like to be restrained and to reflect at this time. It will only be counterproductive.
Not only will it make the other party feel that their efforts are wrong, but it will also hurt the other party's sensitive and fragile heart again.
At this time, what Zenin Kiyoshi needed to do was to accept it generously and give Toji the same emotional feedback later.
As for the person who can truly shape Toji's personality, it should actually be Megumi Fushiguro's biological mother. For the current Toji, he is basically like a tramp who has been short of love for a long time and has picked up a talking pet.
Although the metaphor is a bit crude, it is indeed the case.
The afternoon wind in summer was still a bit stuffy and sticky. The air seemed to be a little hot, and when it blew on a person's face, it even scorched the eyebrows slightly curly.
"Alright, today's training ends here. Go take a shower, we'll pack up and go buy some things for the new house. We'll be moving out in about another week."
Zenin Kiyoshi let out a breath, shook his somewhat sore arm, took the mineral water handed over by Toji, and took a big gulp.
To this, Toji frowned slightly and then said:
"After doing strenuous exercise, don't drink water so fiercely. Not only will it not quench your thirst very well, but it will also cause damage to your body and easily lead to sudden death."
"Phew~ I know, I'll pay attention next time."
Toji is becoming more and more like a mother hen now, Zenin Kiyoshi complained slightly in his heart. This guy has completely lost the feeling of a cold and颓废 uncle from before.
"By the way, when we buy things today, can we buy some flowers and plants?"
"What do you want to buy those things for? Do you know how to raise them? If you don't take care of them yourself after you buy them back, you'll have to compensate me in full."
"You bastard are really black-hearted. By the way, don't always treat me like a naughty brat who will impulsively buy small animals and then hand them over to his parents to raise after the excitement wears off. I'm a very independent person."
To Zenin Kiyoshi's words, Toji just sneered:
"You can say you're independent when you can go to the convenience store to buy me wine. What do you want to buy flowers and plants for?"
"The person under the tree over there seems to like flowers, plants, and trees very much. Sometimes she will even take the initiative to help take care of the plants in the corner of your yard. It's been a month now, so it's not a big deal to give her a gift."
Hearing Zenin Kiyoshi's words, a look of astonishment appeared on Toji's face. He looked in Hanami's direction and said to Zenin Kiyoshi with a strange expression:
"You brat are really a freak. This is the first time I've seen a sorcerer buy a gift for a cursed spirit. Has your brain been melted by the sun?"
"That cursed spirit is a little different from other cursed spirits. Her aura is very pure. She probably hasn't killed anyone. Maybe she's a different kind of person like us."
Hearing the words "different kind," Toji paused for a moment, then waved his hand and said to Zenin Kiyoshi:
"Whatever you crazy brat wants."
