The Master Of Elements

ME 3 Discussions in the Morning

“Then what should we do Albert. What should we do so that they do not sneak out of the house later.”

Elisha's voice broke Albert's daydream. “Are we honest with them dear. About who we are and also about the dangers that are lurking behind the fence of our house. At least if we were honest with them, they would no longer have the desire to get out of the house. Not when they know the danger.”

“But Albert I just want them to enjoy their childhood. I want them to wake up every day and greet me with a smile. Not with facial expressions of concern about what will happen later.”

“You know Albert, Matthew once asked me with a face full of worries, about whether they are safe living in this village of Sogremon.”

“I was not from whom he heard it, which he clearly knew that our village was very dangerous because it was directly adjacent to the forest of Morento, where the monsters lived. He several times asked when the herd of monsters living there would attack our village again.”

“I don't want our kids to touch Albert's anxiety. I want them to go about their day without a burden, the threat of monsters is enough to be their burden. They were very small Albert. I don't want to add to their anxiety by saying that they are currently being watched by a dark organization that could kidnap them anytime.”

Albert breathed slowly. “There is nothing more we can do Elisa. This is the only way. At least with us being honest like this they will be more active in practicing. They will be ready for the possibilities. Within them flowed the blood of a Dawnson, Elisha. They're a Dawnson Elisa.”

“A Dawnson will be able to overcome that anxiety and make it as a motivation to become stronger. It's already etched inside a Dawnson.” Albert said firmly.

The room in Elisha's tavern became silent when Albert finished speaking. All that was heard was the breath of those who were mutual. After a long silence, Elisha breathed a long breath.

“Alright Albert. Looks like that's all we can do for now.”

Matthew fully got out of bed. He hurried to change his clothes with his training clothes. Then he went into the bathroom to wash his face. He will take a shower after his morning training. If he is now bathing, then later he still needs to shower after sweating during exercise.

After doing his routine in the bathroom Matthew rushed towards the side yard of their house. The atmosphere is still dark out there. Although it is not as dark at night but the sunlight has not yet appeared.

In this dimly lit state, Matthew saw Jasper and Ellie sweeping some leaves in the yard. Ever since they were six years old, they had been sleeping in their own rooms. So they don't always come out of the room together.

Matthew, Jasper, and Ellie have made a deal since they started Albert's training, that is, whoever wakes up first will sweep the yard they will use to practice. Then instead, the late one will wash the dirty dishes after finishing breakfast. Fair enough for them.

“Good morning Jasper and Ellie.” Sapa Matthew's.

“Morning Matthew. You look very excited today.” replied Jasper.

“Of course Suits. Last night I no longer felt any pain. And again I feel my body getting stronger with each passing day. I feel happy that our training has been fruitful.”

Ellie, who had completed her task, walked up to Matthew after putting the broom she was holding. “You're right Matthew. I also feel stronger. Now I can eat more than usual.”

“Food alone you think.”

“Matt is right El, don't just think about food. Try to think about how we can use the elements. At least help me devise a plan to persuade Dad and Mom to teach us how to use the elements faster than they promise.”

“Maybe we can try to start by wondering about the element to them. After they talk about the elements we can ask how a professional uses their element in the fight.”

“Why are you still in such a hurry Jas. It's only three months away. Be patient. After all, we're not going anywhere after this, are we? So there's no harm in us waiting three more months. Although I also want to become stronger like you, I still want to be patient.”

The one who was in such a hurry to become strong was Matthew. Although he had been living for ten years in this world, he was still not used to the danger present in this world.

“Alright. You're always right Matt. I'll obey all of your words.” Answer Jasper.

“By the way where is Mom? Why don't I see it. Then, have you also left for work?” Ask Matthew.

Jasper shook his head. “Where do I know. When I woke up the house was still in a state of loneliness. I didn't hear any sound when I woke up. Maybe they're still sleeping right now. Now what are we going to do?”

Matthew paused for a moment to think. They could not do the exercises as usual without the supervision of their parents. Although Matthew felt he had grown stronger, but he did not want to take the risk. Before his parents allowed them to practice unsupervised, Matthew would not.

Matthew finally decided something. He will train his physique while waiting for his parents. He will train physically like the exercises in his old world. At least this can help to increase their stamina a little.

“We will be my version of physical exercise for now. You just follow all my moves. Before Dad or I know Mom came we can practice this first.”

After saying so, Matthew invites Jasper and Ellie to warm up first. After ten minutes of warm-up, Matthew still had not seen any signs of their parents. Seeing that, Matthew decided to continue his training plan.

After warming up, Matthew invites Jasper and Ellie to run around their house fifty times. If calculated, Matthew and his two younger siblings have traveled nine kilometers from fifty times around their house.

They do not stop because they feel tired and cannot continue. But Matthew still wanted to do another exercise.They rested for five minutes just before continuing with push-ups fifty times, sit-ups for fifty times.

Matthew himself was very surprised by his achievements. He did not expect to have this much stamina. After doing a series of activities, his breathing is also not like people who have done heavy exercise.

“Ellie, are you feeling tired?” Ask Jasper.

“No. I'm not tired, Jas. The moves Matthew taught me were fun enough for me. Do you want to race with Jas? Race who does more push ups.” Take Ellie.

“Of course I'm not afraid of your challenge. That was pretty fun. Matthew, why haven't you been telling me all this time that you had such a fun move to shut it down. Sometimes I get bored just standing still.” Complain Jasper

Seeing Jasper and Ellie who are still very excited makes Matthew believe that they have great stamina. Perhaps this was the stamina that an adult had in his former world.

But these are ten-year-old children. Maybe if Matthew had this kind of power while still living in his former world he would be the talk of people online. He would become famous by the nickname of the powerful son, the descendant of Samson, the descendant of Hercules and so on.

“You guys just continue that push up competition. I want to find Father and Mother. Why are they still not visible. We've been practicing physically here for a long time but they haven't come.” Said Matthew who was currently raising his head to look at the sky that began to be illuminated by the sunlight.

It's not usually that his parents are late like they are today. They wake up earlier than Matthew, Jasper, and Ellie. Even before the three swept the courtyard, Albert usually sat under a tree beside their house.

Matthew was just about to open the door to the house when it opened from the inside. From there, Albert and Elisha came out of the house with a pretty serious look. Matthew never saw his parents put on such a serious face.

“This morning you will not practice. There are things we want to talk about with you guys.”

Hearing that, Matthew realized that what they were going to talk about was quite serious. The faces of his parents had already revealed it.

Although Matthew did not know what they were going to talk about but Matthew believed this was related to their training. I hope everything will be okay.
