Chapter 24 - Depression? Maybe...

"You don't have potential to be sorceress but you can become a magician."

"Um, Miss Julia. What's different of sorceress and magician."

"Magician is the one who had mainstream magic as their foundation, that is Fire, Earth, Water, Wind, Lightning. Druid known for their magic in nature. While priest in holy magic while the opposite of that is sorceress, the holder of dark magic."

"I see."

"While it sound like there is only one dark magic, there are a lot of branch of dark magic. What I learned is another group of magic known as 'dark art', which is different from Seven Deadly Sin which is an ancient dark magic. Dark art is comprehension of vague understanding of SDS. which is why there are vast of dark magic."

"So, the Needle of Fate Gazer is derived from your own understanding of SDS Envy?"

"That's seems correct but these magic been taught by my master. He is already dead."

"Oh, sorry to hear that."

"It's fine. Don't mind it."

"Guys! How about a dinner!!!!"

Hans shouted in rowdy.

"Why are we having practice?"

'Eventhough I beat that That big stepbrother and big stepsister at their own expertise.'

"To train you!"

"Eh. Really?"

"Why? You confident?"

"Yeah, like really serious about this."

"Then we will fight, if you can make it draw. You win."

"If I lose?"

"Goodbye to those lazy day of being protected."

Ryuuji who heard it had solemn face. He tried to reasoning with himself whether to lose or to draw. Hans who saw troubled Ryuuji had grin on his face. But he never knew the reason of Ryuuji's root of problem.

'To draw or to lose.'

"Here, wooden sword. Can't go wrong with this thing."

Hans threw wooden sword at ryuuji's hand. Ryuuji caught it single handedly. Ryuuji swang it around. He nodded satisfied. He then glanced at Hans with grin.

"Sure..."

'You know what, screw losing this battle. I'll bully this guy. No, he is good guy. Maybe toying him a little.'

Ryuuji grinned and laugh darkly. Only John noticed it as dark aura seemed collected around Ryuuji like hurricane.

'Hans, this kid have malicious thought!'

John wanted to warn Hans but he stopped himself as there is a girl looking the fight with anticipation.

"Ryuuji will fight with Mr Hans."

Hans and Ryuuji faced each other. Hans thought that the boy would lost immediately as the noble kid who learn sword is different from seasoned adventurer. Hans made mistake for underestimating Ryuuji. Hans kept his offense on Ryuuji yet he didn't get any result. Moreover, Ryuuji dodged, parry and block in timely manner as if he predicted the attack. After long period, Hans breathed heavily. Ryuuji looked at him.

"Old Hans, it's my turn now."

Ryuuji rushed at Hans with wooden sword ready to swing, again, Hans underestimated Ryuuji. Ryuuji kept a barrage of nonstop basic movement of swing, thrust, slash flawlessly to the point Hans struggled to maintain defense. Ryuuji grinned a moment, he grinned. In next second, the wooden sword on Hans's hand cut into pieces from Ryuuji's own wooden sword.

"That's all. Thanks for your guidance."

Ryuuji said he threw the wooden sword without looking but the sword stuck deeply inside a tree. Hans who saw this astonished, He never heard of someone who had this talent that surpassed a veteran bladesman. Ryuuji went to Elizabeth, he moved his body acting like he possessed a lot of muscle. Elizabeth giggled when looking at that, Ryuuji then made weird face and dancing totally ignoring those adventurers who speechless.

"Old man Hans..."

"This kid can kill me easily if he being little serious. The way he fought me like playing with a weak old man. I wonder if I became that weak..."

Old Hans sighed. He felt his age caught him when he couldn't deal to fight that kid. Henry gave a clear evaluation that Ryuuji is unordinary one, not Old Hans being old. Miss Julie interested in Ryuuji when saw the kids interacting each other as if there is nothing abnormal going one.

'That kid know a lot of things that can be said that he can be magic swordsman.'

"Miss Julie, I'm not. And I'm just guessing based on your face."

'How this kid...'

"I'm not using magic, I can read people expression pretty well."

'Since I was a holder of half giant companies' asset.'

"Anyway, Ryuuji... After I saw you fought, could I learn few tips from you?"

"Big brother Henry... Of course, I also could give my idea for Old Hans to improve."

"But on ONE condition. I want..."

Ryuuji pulled closer Elizabeth to his side. Elizabeth had red face as she looked down.

"I want my time with this cute girl with me undisturbed."

All the four adventurers included John had one word for this young boy whose age is no less than twelve,

'''Lady-killer!!!'''
