174 Chapter 174 : You Are Too Young!

"I don't have any reason to lie. Why don't you ask Madam Ruth about it?" Master Li said after seeing the disappointed look on Das face.

Without speaking one more word, Das went directly to Ruth's room. As he was nearing her room door, Das saw Ruth coming out of her room in fighter clothes.

"Why did you place me in the last row?" Das asked, holding her forearm. Instead of replying to him, Ruth pulled her hand back and asked him to follow her.

"What's the use of training when I'm in the last row?" Das asked again without moving from where he stood.

"Stop acting like a child. Let's go. I don't have time for this." Ruth said while avoiding his gaze and walking away without waiting for him. Das followed her from behind and continued to ask same question.

Without responding to him, Ruth went directly to the cage room on the underground floor. This time she locked the room door, as she didn't want to get interfered with by Finn again.

She stood in the centre of the cage and gestured for Das to prepare for the fight. But instead of preparing for a fight, Das asked the same question again.

"Why are you not speaking? Tell me why did you placed me in the last row. You want me to hide like a tortoise in the last row." Das asked with an aggrieved tone while staring right into her eyes.

Ruth did not answer his question. She directly released a punch against his face. Das simply deflected her punch with his palm and held her shoulder tightly.

"Ruth, I need answers." Das asked with a straight face. Ruth pushed him with a palm strike and lifted her leg to kick him on the shoulder. Das held her leg with both hands.

"Ruth, you need to speak." Das said it again. Ruth took momentum from the ground, lifted her other leg with a quick shout, and kicked him in the chest. Both of them fell flat on the ground in the opposite direction.

Das really felt pain this time. Irritated by her silence, Das started fighting with his full potential.

Within five moves, he pinned Ruth to the cage wall and leaned closer to her face.

"Answer me, Ruth. I'm persistent like a weed. You can't avoid me forever." Das asked with a serious face while staring straight into her face.

"I'm saving your life. Can't you appreciate it?" Ruth said it angrily.

"When did you start worrying about my life? I'm not a coward to hide like a tortoise in the last row." Das replied without letting her escape.

"I'm afraid that you will lose your life. That's why I placed you in the last row. Are you satisfied now?" Ruth spoke seriously while hiding her emotions behind her serious face.

But Das immediately understood her intentions.

"So, you are caring about me. That's... that's interesting..." Das muttered in a daze. Ruth turned her face away to avoid his piercing gaze, as Das is looking into her eyes with a different emotion.

"Ruth, why are you caring about me? Why do you worry about my life? You placed all your students in the front row. But why me?!..." Das asked Ruth, who is looking down in silence.

Das moved his head to look at her face. Das saw her moist eyes and understood what she is thinking about him. She is hiding her face without showing any feelings or emotions.

While pinning her body against the iron cage, Das leaned to her side.

"Why are you hiding your feelings? It's not a sin to love someone." Das said in a whispering tone in her right ear.

"Nooo… I'm not loving anyone. Leave me alone." Ruth replied in a hurried voice.

"If you are not loving me, why do you care about my life? Say that you don't love me while looking into my eyes." Das asked seriously before trying to look at her face directly.

Ruth keep on avoiding his gaze. As Das stood silently without asking anything, Ruth slowly lifted her head and looked at him with moist eyes.

Without giving her any chance, Das pinned her hardly against the cage and kissed her lips directly. Ruth struggled to get away from his kiss, but Das did not give her any chance to escape.

"No… No, you are too young. Don't do this." Ruth said before pushing him away.

Ruth immediately left the cage in a hurry. She didn't dare to look back, even though Das is calling her name non-stop.

"Ruth... stop hiding your feelings. I won't care about your age." Das shouted loudly without following Ruth. He wanted to give her some time to adjust her emotions. That's why he let her go.

Das smiled merrily while looking at the retreating Ruth, is was running away from him in hurried steps.

Later, Das went to the open ground behind the training facility. Master Li is busily guiding the members to arrange them in crescent formation.

As the map of the formation was already drawn on the ground with the help of a colourful powder, it became easy for everyone to stand in their position.

Master Chen is taking care of the back lines, and Li is checking both ends of the formation. Within fifteen minutes, all the fighters were arranged neatly in a crescent formation.

After making sure that everything was in order, Master Li stepped on a raised platform and started explaining the formation rules and role of each person. He also explained the movement techniques and defence tactics.

As Ruth and Finn were taking care of both ends of the formation like two poles, Li went to each corner to explain to them how to attack the opponent while covering the person before them in the formation.

He also prepared two smaller formations around Ruth and Finn to reduce the burden on them.

Das stood at the centre of the last row. He just needs to move left and right without any major work. He really felt bored in this passive position.
