BOOK 1:THE BEGINNING:CHAPTER XLIII:FINAL ADDRESS

Anusara peered at the Master, not quite sure of what he had in mind though she knew the drill very well like everyone does including the two boys. They were supposed to bow in respect to each other after every training on combat and she knew what happened to one of them that defaulted in this rule.
Without wasting further time, Master Maeus took a step back and then he took a quick bow with the three young trainees doing the same thing in front of everyone watching them even even though their costume almost prevented them from making a good bow. Afterwards, he gestures at Collins to remain where he was standing with his back facing the crowd behind him while his two partners head back with Collin's partner helping Anusara to walk back only to be surprised that Collins didn't follow behind instead he waited behind for further instructions from the advocate but they didn't utter a word and Bella came to meet them.
In front of everyone, the advocate strolled forward and turned Collins to face the spectators who by now expected that he would have already been dismissed everyone back to their quarters.
"It's seems like he has more to say to us"
"Oh really?",
One of the spectators whispered to his mate behind him as the advocate drew closer to the edge of the platform to get a vivid view on the faces staring blankly at him. Melizzar overheard those whispering but chose to look at the Advocate placing his left is around the shoulders of Collins whose heart was beating faster than his breath.
Savoring the sight of his spectators for the last time, Maeus ease his gaze at his audience and cleared his throat twice to ensured that his throat isn't too dry to say what everyone else expected him to utter his words out from his mouth.
"You all could attest that Collins did well to put me in a tight spot and I would have been defeated if I didn't figure out their tricks in time. For his brevity during the training including those that were with him, I commend your efforts and the rest of you should improve more on your attacks and emulate his confidence but before we conclude this training session....",
He took a slight pause to see if his words were being listened to by the everyone sitting below the platform including few of those standing behind the crowd. There was complete silence in the hall and he liked the way he didn’t hear any whisper from those looking at them.
Then he continued, "There's something important we need to know when we come across a werewolf. First of all, we all know that the areas of the human body have vital organs and these internal organs can easily cause a greater damage to the human body once it is struck with a deadly blow from the outside....",
Maeus took another pause and placed his index and middle finger on the left side of Collin's neck to demonstrate his lessons. Then he indicated the rest of the human vitals to the spectators who watched in awe using the costume Collin's wore as a practical example to express his explanation to his listeners.
"Here's one of the points where you can deliver a critical blow to a human and he will definitely lose consciousness once you hit this place hard which you have been taught but this applies only to a human. Now, when a human transforms into a werewolf, his entire vitals becomes ten times extremely sensitive and more pronounced than ever but they are difficult to find and are hidden because he becomes a furry animal which concealed each parts that could deliver a fatal blow these regions....",
He explained further and took the sword of the acolyte before moving a bit far away from the timid boy in a werewolf costume.
"But thanks to a lot of study the elders and other noteworthy masters, who have encountered a werewolf, did to overcome the ferocious monster, we have been able to figure out this sensitive parts in a werewolf...",
Maeus said and used the sheathed sword to touch where he wanted his listeners to see on Colin's costume. His audience kept their eyes peeled at Collins who steady himself from breaking in shame since he was trembling for being the object of attraction. The advocate stopped at the last point and gave the sword back to Collins.
"Take note of this and don't ever forget when you are up against a werewolf. They won't spare you if you make yourself vulnerable to them and you must apply this technique if you feel that you can't take on your opponent. be sure to remember this because once you are out there, you are on your own even though you have to watch his others back. That'll be all for now, you are dismissed",
Maeus's shrieked on top of his voice and the crowd of young acolytes sitting down, began getting up from the floorboard before heading to the exit in disarray and tiredness of the whole show. Collins climbed down from where he was and soon joined the rowdy crowd of disembarking teenagers.
Bella still helping Anusara to stand properly wanted to leave the hall as well but she suddenly felt hesitant when she saw Melizzar waiting for Master Maeus to climb down the platform.
"Master...",
"Go without me. There's something I need to discuss with Maeus",
Melizzar retorted cutting her short. He didn’t even look at her face and kept his gaze fixed upon his fellow advocate approaching.
"But....",
"Bella, I think it's best if we obey his instructions. Besides, I am getting tired resting on you like this",
"Listen to her. You two can leave with the others but don't forget what we talked about",
He said still not looking at the two acolytes.
"Okay, Master. We'll be going then",
Bella replied and helped got Anusara on the right track headed to the exit and soon left the hall with the rest of the acolytes.
