Chapter 12 - Getting physically stronger.

In these two years, Ethan became exceptionally strong and agile for a kid. Also, due to constant kick and punch practice. Let's say they started to have good fighting reflexes. Not to mention, Ethan has a lot of training in past he did have all the knowledge and some of the muscle memory. 

Sarah also improved a lot in terms of physical fitness, agility. 

RO2 had constantly monitored the situation. Ethan has spent lot of his points to get high quality protein, Creatine and hard to option herbs. Ethan used it for himself and gave to Sarah as well. This was another reason why both of them where able to improve their strength so much. 

Physical strength at young age build a good foundation. Every day routine after school was to run 10 laps around the farm. Initially both kids where able to do 2-3 laps but now they could do 10 laps easily in one go. 

Than wall climbing and rope climbing. A setup which has improved a lot. Robert and farm hand Michael Rodríguez also joined them in this activity now. Robert has especially kept safety harness and nets ensure safety of both children. The climbing wall is 40 fts the climbing rope are of same height. 

The kids used to do some strength exercises custom made by Ethan. 

The routine is like: 

1. Carrying heavy sacks 100-200 mtrs.

2. Punching and kicking sacks 100 times. 

3. Hitting sacks with sticks. 200 times. 

4. Swinging large rods in two fighting stances 100 times each

5. Swinging wooden sword 100 times in 2 stances. 

6. 100 pushups & 100 free squats.

7. Wall climbing. 

8. Rope climbing.

The whole exercise routine took 2 hours to complete. Sarah initially barely did running for 1/2 lap. 

But now she once had completed the full session. Its very strenuous for her age. Ethan is able to complete everything since last year. He sometimes go overboard and does double the routine.

Robert and Martha are really not aware the whole routine is so strenuous and Ethan avoided telling them and made sure they didn't knew since they will create hurdles. Since most the exercise is done in late afternoon. They are not aware of it. 

Also Ethan has ensured Sarah and himself are having special herbs and multitude of advanced supplements that both of the grow their strength at abnormal rate. 

Now two years later clear strength is visible. Ethan is now 8 years old.

Pshyce: F!$ & ! ^13** (hidden)

Ethan: Mad Dog Fist. I recall this was fighting technique from China which was effective but mocked by martial artist. 

RO2: Boss you never had formal training as martial artist. Though you trained in gymnaisum, parkour and use of weapon. You just went ahead and fought with your own strategy.

Ethan: Well with weapons today who needs to dance around punching and kicking. Those old fight style are useless. You need to be agile, fast and know how to use weapon. 

RO2: Boss admin was pretty shocked to see this stat of yours. He was expecting you were some martial arts expert. 

He said, "So he really is a thug". RO2 said in faking tone. 

Ethan: Hey it gets the job done and ask the old man to stop looking at other stat. Also was a Vice President not a thug. I get the job done though.

RO2: Boss I think director was just surprised. He thought you were a martial arts prodigy.

Ethan smiled back. 

Ethan: Can I check my punching power. 

RO2: Try to focus. 

Ethan did so and the system virutal box was created in front of him. Than he was prompted to make 10 straight hard punches at it. 

Punching power: 11510 franklins.

Ethan: RO2 this unit franklins was used back on earth. Strongest human had punches close to 170k franklins. But for a normal man this was around 15000-20000 franklin. FOr a 8 years old 11510 franklin is a lot of punching power. 

RO2: Boss the thing in the helping gear is made inline with standards and units you are familiar with to give you ease of usage. 

These two years have been good. Only at 8 years you have become really strong. You have changed this weak body into strong.
