Chapter 12 - The Training Spar

4 hours later

I was trying to discover another cast I could use, and some tries later, I don't find any cast of First grade, but yes two basic spells with unusual effects.

[Slow down]

[Grade: Basic]

[Type: Destruction]

[Description: This cast allows you to slow a small area and reduce its usual speed]

[Speed up]

[Grade: Basic]

[Type: enhancement]

[Description: This cast allows you to accelerate the speed of your moves without any risk]

[Basic Casts: "Slow Down"(Destruction), "Speed up"(Enhancement)]

[First Grade Casts: "Peaceful walk" (Control)]

And with that, I have three spells, and each one of with different type of domain

Somewhat happy about this achievement, I took a rest before going to the other area where my squadron is with Kai.

After saying bye to some of the originals, we left on the way to the training room, and then suddenly, Aiden asked me:

"what do you think about our future squadron?"

"Mhh... they are quite unique each one of them," I revealed the truth.

"And their ability also is pretty unusual, so you discover new casts these days? if you keep it up, you could be the captain in the tournament at the end of the year." Aiden replied to me.

"If I continue so, I will die of a brain attack trying to discover something else"

"yeah, but for us, it's quite... I don't know? very complicated for the only reason to understand our element, but it seems to be very quick to learn it for you.

Like I understand if you take 2-3 days to learn a simple cast of your element but 3 in one day? and on top of that, of a complex element like time." Said Aiden, some jealous and some irritated, for only thinking on someone as lazy as a genius could exist.

"Ehm... Thank you for that? only that the reason is that I thought with logic, instead of trying to use all my power at once." I said without knowing the truth behind Aiden's words.

"Let's keep going," said Aiden, some frustrated with my response.

After a moment of embarrassing silence, we reach the training room where the others are with Beatrice instead of Stephen.

"It seems all of you all here with the two famous ones now I see, for now on, we will keep the weapon training that we were practicing but now we will try to, instead of only replying to the series.

Do a little tournament when each one of yours will use his weapon but not your element for a certain inconvenience we have here". She said as turns to us for a brief moment.

'Wait, why she is looking at me?' i asked myself confused

'it seems the council informs the instructor to hide our element for the rest before the tournament, very accurate for them part' Aiden said to himself.

"Well then, now the persons that I mention will not make our little competition for the only reason that only the melee users could participate: Aiden and Kai, you are out".

she said as some minutes later said something else

"Now, for the rest, I will mention two persons, and then you will fight each other until I order you to stop if I see that could be a fatal strike of something else.

Now one of the two first on the list:

N°00000010 vs N°00002220, come here to the ring" She mentioned me and a guy, that now I see he have a short blade as his weapon.

When we reach the ring she mentions some rules to follow like the surrender option or other things I don't listen to well for the reason I don't was interested in hearing about.

Now, when I count to 3 the spar will begin.

"Fight"

She said and after that, I put the tonfa mode for that fight and analyze the pose of my opponent, So I could see if there was a weakness in his position.

When he understood my strategy, he instantly begins his assault and with a vertical strike, he attacks me.

Without any trouble, I use my left hand to block it, but then pass to be vertical to a horizontal slash.

'A feint'

I thought and instantly with my other hand, I grab the end of my weapon to use the handle to block the blade of his weapon

And when I did that and reject his attack, he tried to retire his weapon and get back but I was faster than him

So I put his weapon down with the handle and use the tonfa of my left arm and I click on the button of my handle to activate the hidden blade to put in his neck.

"Stop, The winner is N°00000010" She, interrupts us, and with that, I retired my weapon from his neck.

[The match lasted over 17 seconds]

The system was also added, and with that, I won the first match in my life.

'I have to improve more to don't leave any chance of a counter-attack' I thought, but a few seconds later, I forgot and returned outside the ring waiting for the others.

And because we were 9 she offer them an option to leave for one of the last 3 of our tournament.

with that, I reach the semi-finals, where my opponent was a dual knifes user

"N°00000010 vs N°00004404, now you can begin"

So to avoid a possible feint like the last match, I put a defense position so I could do a better move.

When the march started, none started first, and a few seconds later of only seeing the move each other could do

Suddenly, he started a lunge with his right arm in the direction of my stomach, but I tried to parry it with my tonfa's left arm

But then, with a quick move of his hand, change his direction to above my head leaving my block useless.

Quickly I move my other arm to change the course of his attack, and with the other arm, I grab the handle so I can do a flip in a way to his head

He tried to stop it with his Other weapon, but the change of terms was so quickly that my tonfa hit him above his head, leaving him unconscious in the act.

[The match lasted 15 seconds]

"With that, N°00000010 goes to the final"

"So, who is the next?" I said unconsciously as if Khal's soul possessed me to say that.
