Chapter One: Level 8 Lessons in Leadership

Droplets of sweat fell between the plethora of spikes. Her fingers trembled as they gripped one of the protrusions. Mana material enhanced people per their desires, but the road to strength was still a long one.

Tino Shade had a small and nimble body, a must-have for Thieves, but standing upside down while supporting her body with just her index fingers and thumbs was no easy task. If she faltered for even a moment, she would lose her balance and fall onto a floor of spikes. The thought of becoming full of holes was enough to make anyone nervous.

The spike floor was a training implement thought up by her master. But while it was his idea, Siddy had been the one to bring it to life. The metal spikes had already wounded many and reeked with an unremovable scent of blood. As Tino moved from one spike to another, all while remaining upside down, she heard some grumbling voices nearby.

“You seriously don’t have a clue? We know some of their members, so can’t we just go from there?”

“Fox is a very unique organization. Until a few years ago, nobody even knew that was what they called themselves.”

Lizzy sat down and grumbled to herself. “How the hell does a group like that get so big? Fucking hell, this would be so much easier if Krai Baby hadn’t disposed of Telm!”

“Well, what’s done is done! If it weren’t for Krai, we never would’ve learned that Telm was a Fox in the first place,” Siddy chided. Tino, however, still noticed her rueful tone.

They were in a gloomy training ground built underground beneath the clan house. In the center of the floor was a tube large enough for a person to easily fit inside. The top half was made of dense glass sealed at the top. The bottom was some sort of machine with a spiral-shaped blade. Near the base were shiny metal handles. She didn’t know what it was used for, but apparently, Anssy had brought it back from Night Palace.

Grieving Souls would do anything if it made them stronger. Lizzy, of course, underwent rigorous training, but the other members had also done things like making their own special tools or inventing spells from scratch. She had seen a plethora of things that all seemed like they would undoubtedly make someone stronger.

And it was probably in the name of avoiding these insane methods that nobody else was in the training room at the moment. Different approaches worked for different people, and anyone with a nose for danger had a natural aversion to the regimens of Grieving Souls.

And what purpose could traversing a floor of spikes serve? The same doubts had once crossed Tino’s mind, but she quickly banished those thoughts from her mind. She had to, or else she wouldn’t be able to concentrate on not falling onto the spikes.

“Maybe we should ask him, just to be sure?” Lizzy went on. “I don’t like that they swung at us and still live to tell about it.
