Chapter 16- The cloak of.
"Curse of the fog lady, using a mixture of fire, ice, wind and water magic, plus if you don't have a good dept understanding about the magic you are using there is a high chance that you will fade away, there is a lot more than anything we know, you are a summoner but still being to cast such an integrated spell, a spell which transforms yourself into a mist. You are truly an ACE, I would love to fight you with all that I have got before our wedding."
"Then what's stopping you."
Ascais sat at the dining table, pushing Rhine's plate towards her, she couldn't complain about the food as she barely knew how to cook, and she had first-hand experienced the effects of her cooking, as she thought everything was over, Ascais went back to her previous topic,
"If you try to fight me now, it's obvious that you will win. Even with 'Alberine' and my transformation, I could barely last a few minutes, mainly due to my small mana pool, therefore I mostly try to avoid extreme fights when in my terminal vacation, not being able to use store mana. I am forced into short intense fights."
"So, you are like a berserk without the berserk spell."
"You could say so."
"Having a mana pool of just 15,000 makes me probably the weakest ACE in terms of long fights."
"So, you are useless in long fights but still you are deployed continuously into long fights, could you explain."
"I will not like to explain while I am having breakfast but still this is one of the biggest things that makes me unique, there are two reasons why I am deployed on a battlefield. The first reason is simple, I am just a good battlefield commander, and despite my age people still follow my order, the second reason is a bit complicated, in long-lasting inter-realm battles I am nothing more than a big foot-soldier, to disturb the rear-line, I am like the spearhead of a spear, with my short burst of power I just go full berserk once I enter the backlines of the enemy, thus I am like a full force sniper magic which can fight in short burst, but then it becomes useless when it runs out of ammo, that is me. I go deep into the backlines and re-treat before my mana runs out. Thus I work as a vanguard unit."
"Jeez, so you are like a suicide bomber"
"You could say that, but was the main root to get strong quickly compared to anyone"
"So that was your way to get stronger."
"Mostly yes, there were years where I trained through multiple Elites, like your father."
"So my father is responsible for your Ace hood."
"Yeah, he gave me the 12 demon arts."
"So he was"
"Yes, but what about you."
"You may know about the relationship of my father and mother, due to that I forced to live two sides, one where I was trained live a warlord and brilliant commander and the second where I was made a powerhouse of fights, which lead me to wield the blue ice, as a celebration for my rise in the Ra infantry and stability forces, Everyone who came to the ceremony thought nothing of it, they thought it would be nothing than a small power boost in my body."
"But it was nothing, unlike what they thought the sword Blue ice had an extreme liking to you, which is the same what happened to me, but unlike you where you were allowed to wield it I held my weapon accidentally, I was about to be executed by 'Alberine', the foolish who tried to executed I had only a compatibility of just 60 per cent, but when he tried to execute me, I stop 'Alberine' by holding its blade. Alberine is one of the swords where the combability is dependent on your feelings, at that time I was filled with rage, so naturally, it didn't affect me, for the sword can damage a thing only if it has a lower combability than the user. That is the oversimplified version of how I became the wielder of Alberine."
"This is the 7th time you are saying this to me. It is just an over-told story."
"No, it's a heroic story."
Rhine muffled her face while trying to speak to Ascais, she had first-hand experienced the feeling of what happens when one is forced to listen to the rolling words of Ascais, despite all the looks of it, Ascais still loves to talk about himself to one person and only one person only. Ascais talked and preach to the only Rhine about his adventures, the time while he slew a tier 69 earth dragon by just using one sword strike or the time he had to survive the great mana lost storm while having zero mana left to kill the mana beast which rosed the storm. In conjunction with these things, it forced a heavy burden on Rhine to hear it every time Ascais and her used to sit together in their alone time.
"You know, I am the record holder for the fastest person to get ACE-hood, unlike you the second place." Rhine munched on her food while yelling at Ascais, she argued with him about her achievements, "What do you think of it, reaching ACE-hood before someone else doesn't make you more powerful an experience in the field of war, and it will not help you survive in the front-line."
"Why do always like to flex on me about your achievements, I have to consider it that because of it I was able to present you to my brother." The tune of the lover-fight changed, Ascais face shipped down in an instant, "You see Rhine, You and mostly all your siblings are the best of RA, even their partners are one of the best of RA, so it makes a tuff deal, I have to present myself to you and them so that you don't have to look down on yourself when talking about your partner, In short, I am always in pressure that you will overshadow me.
