Beast Evolution-Chapter 179 179 I Thought You Liked Me...

"Are you guys tired...do you need a break" Jake shouted.

"No Sir" all the students shouted half-heartedly.

All of them were sweating despite the cold weather, the training they were undergoing was simple basic training with Ki but the duration of the training was the problem.

They were divided into two groups and heavy rocks were placed at two ends, each group formed a straight line and carried the rock to the other end.

While the first group was carrying the rock from the left to the right, the second group was returning the rock to the left side and they had been there for almost an hour.

The problem was that the rock was too heavy to lift with normal strength, so the students had to use Ki in order to lift the rock.

"This is just basic training, you are going to be future swordsmen, so this is essential" Jake said from his chair.

"Sir we have been doing this for an hour now, should we rest a little," a boy said.

"Strength is everything for a swordsman, a swordsman cannot be weak so this is just the tip, we are going through more harder training than this so prepare yourselves and stop complaining," Jake said with a hoarse voice.

"But Sir..." Arya wanted to say something but stopped as she saw Gabriel.

Sir Jake noticed his presence and smiled as he knew the senior knights would also be back.

"Gabriel you're back," Arya said with a smile.

Lily's heart began to race immediately, she knew if Gabriel was back that means Ray is also back.

She didn't even spare a glance in Gabriel's direction as she looked to see if Ray was also coming but she didn't see Ray.

Gabriel was surprised as he saw the training his classmates were undergoing, all of them looked like they would drop dead any second and Sir Jake was sitting down enjoying himself.

"Hello Sir" Gabriel greeted.

"How was the journey, were you attacked?" Jake asked.

"Yes, but the knights took care of it" Gabriel answered.

"What about your friends?"

"They are resting"

"Aren't you supposed to be resting, you can't join them after such a long journey, you need to rest and conserve your strength because tomorrow would be worst" Sir Jake shouted the last part so all the students could hear.

All the students complained but Sir Jake didn't spare them a single glance as he closed his eyes and rested his back on his chair.

Gabriel saw the training they were doing and didn't join in, instead he sat down close to Jake looking at the students as they trained.

"Hey, I think Sir Jake is sleeping, I'm going to rest a little" a boy said to the person in front of him.

"Yeah, you are right, I'm so tired I think I'm going to pass out after this"

The first boy left the line and sat on the ground, he sighed heavily as he finally caught a break.

"James if you don't stand up right now, you are going to run around the training ground all night," Jake said with his eyes closed.

James immediately jolted up from the ground, the amount of strength that filled his body couldn't be measured and he quickly resumed training.

"Arghhh..." Lily fell to the ground and everyone turn her attention toward her.

"Lily are you alright?" Arya quickly asked.

"Help me, I want to go see Ray, make an excuse for me" Lily whispered.

'Ohh...' Arya immediately understood.

"Are you tired?" Jake asked as he finally opened his eyes.

"I'm not feeling so well, I'm feeling lightheaded..." Lily said as she held her head and faced down hoping for Sir Jake to buy her excuse.

"Are you still having headaches?" Arya asked.

"You're excused, take a break," Jake said and Lily held back her smile because she have to appear sick till she left.

"Arya, when did Lily start having headaches?" Ivan whispered to Arya.

"That's obviously an excuse, she wants to go see Ray" Arya whispered back and Ivan smiled and shook his head.

Lily held her head as she made her way out of the building where the sword class trained, as soon as she got out she picked up her pace.

She was so excited to see Ray, it felt like he had been away for a year but it was only a week and some days. f𝐫𝑒𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧૦𝘃𝗲l.c𝚘𝘮

As she got to the hallway she was breathing heavily and she stopped to rest, she looked at her clothes, and her top was covered in sweat.

"I can't go to Ray like this..."

...

"I look okay now..." Lily smiled and walked towards Ray's room.

She changed her training clothes and wore ordinary loose clothes and packed her hair so it looked neat.

'What is wrong with me, why am I behaving like this, it's just Ray, yes I like him but that's all'

She arrived in front of his room and her heart began to race again as she placed her hands on the door

Without knocking she pushed the door opened and saw Ray and Leia. The smile she had on quickly disappeared as she saw what was happening.

Ray was behind Leia trying to remove her clothes and Leia on the other hand wasn't struggling and just sat still.

Ray and Leia raised their heads up and saw Lily at the door, her eyes immediately became watery and she slammed the door back.

"Hey Lily, what's wrong...Leia I'm coming back hold on" Ray quickly jumped and ran after her.

Ray opened and saw her on the ground crying loudly, he quickly rushed toward her and bent down.

"Lily, what's wrong?" Ray quickly asked.

Lily raised her head up and slapped Ray with all the strength she could muster. Ray was shocked at Lily's action but he didn't react.

"I thought you liked me, turns out you didn't..." Lily cried.

"Lily what are you saying" Ray shouted angrily, his voice alone made her raise her head up and stare at him.

"What were you doing with Leia," Lily asked with tears in her eyes.
