I was never one to sugarcoat anything and clearly his former tutors were exactly that type . His cheeks turned a bright shade of pink as he glanced at the ground ; Adam just looked amused . I am Matt . What is your name ? I smiled at the small child and lowered myself , so I was at eye level with him . You may call me Judy , I told him . He lifted his head and squared his shoulders as if he was getting ready to fight . You are really good at shooting , but that doesnt mean you are good at everything , he said to me , his tone hardening , and the look in his eyes gave my chest a sinking feeling . My tutors are all weak and I bet youre the same You dont look very strong or intelligent . I need someone capable . He put his hands on his hips . You are certainly very vocal for a 7 year old , I praised . And how do you expect I should prove myself , Master Matt ? He smirked and then walked over to a bucket I hadnt known was there . I frowned when I saw the contents inside . They looked like daggers . I also noticed the dummies that were set up ; they must be for dagger throwing . I knew that was a common practice warriors had so I wasnt surprised to see it . But I was surprised to see Matt pick up a couple of daggers and hold them like he was about to stab me . I looked at Adam who looked ready to intervene ; his face had paled drastically . It only took me a second to realize what was about to happen . Soon , a dagger was being thrown directly at me at a quick pace . He had quite an arm and an aim when it came to dagger throwing . I would be lying if I said I wasnt impressed . Thankfully , I always had good reflexes . I did a quick flip and dodged the flying dagger , only to see another one coming straight for my head . I effortlessly landed on my back , cushioning my fall with my hand as the dagger missed my nose by a centimeter . Another dagger flew directly at me , and I spun around , getting lower to the ground as the dagger passed by , landing an inch away from me . Another dagger flew at me and used my arms and legs to jump back to my feet and over the dagger . 1 A final dagger came spinning directly at me ; this throw was sloppy , and I knew it was because he was losing his focus . I squinted at the fast dagger and timed it perfectly ; spun my foot around and kicked the handle , so the dagger flew in the opposite direction . Panic set in when I realized what I had done and just as I was about to scream for Matt to watch out , he dodged to the ground , missing the dagger only by a second . Relief flooded me and I let out the breath I had been holding inside of myself .noveldrama How did you do that ?? Matt asked as he stood up , brushing the dirt off his clothes. I also brushed the dirt off my clothes , and I shrugged . Ive been training for this type of thing for a long time , old him . If Im going to be a Gamma warrior , I need 1/2 Chapter 0010 to be prepared for every attack . When he stared at me dumbfounded , I raised my brows at um . You didnt know I was training to be a warrior ? I asked him . Do you normally throw daggers at those who havent trained ? His cheeks grew pink again and that was all the answers I needed . I looked at Adam who looked sheepish . He kept his eyes fixed on the ground and I could see the shame on his face . Things were starting to make sense now . Matt truly was a menace . A loud and deep barking sound brought me out of my thoughts . When I turned , I saw a huge black dog running towards us with its tongue out . Its bushy tail wagged back and forth rapidly as it greeted Matt . Matt smiled at the dog and wrapped his arms around his large neck . The dog was bigger than he was ! Shadow , what are you doing out here , boy ? I thought you were inside , Matt said as the dog licked his face , making him chuckle . I smiled and bent down to the ground so I could be at eye level with the dog . He hadnt noticed me yet , but as soon as I moved , he whipped around to face me , his eyes turning to slits . Shadow doesnt like anyone else , other than Master Matthew , Adam warmed . He bit the last tutor , and she had to go to the pack clinic for stitches . I raised my brows I Her wolf didnt heal her ? I asked . She was an Omega without a wolf , Adam explained . I nodded thoughtfully and turned my attention back to Matt and Shadow . Shadow was glaring at me , and I could see his canines as he growled . I kept my calm composure though and outstretched my hand . Shadow took a step closer to me and I could feel Adams anxieties from behind me . But I kept myself calm and my eyes on the dog . </body></html>
