In the small arena just outside of the tower Shaman and Elysia were training with their instructors.
Shaman was going through with Stein how to enhance her swordsmanship skills and how to analyze the opponent for information during battle. Stein was fighting Shaman while also shouting at her instructions about how to fight better. The duel was not as intense as the initial duel but it was enough to put her under pressure and allow her to think.
The duel was just raw fighting and the use of magic was banned during the duel making it more difficult for Shaman, forcing her to rely on her weapon rather than magic. Shaman was enjoying herself though as she was able to see progress in her sword skills and the muscle memory she had been relying on was starting to become her own and not just a leftover remnant of the past.
