Ethan completed the sixth stage after a few minutes. Still, given that sometimes the monsters used some annoying battle formations just to stall for time, he didn't have enough time to learn the support spells that Emily was trying to teach him. Since he was trying to save his mana from learning them, the monsters eventually noticed that Ethan could only attack them physically and thus decided to use that to their advantage.
"While you still have some leeway to deal with the monsters here, things are proceeding as they should be on your magic training," Emily said. "Maybe if you equip some defensive items, things will improve a little bit."
"Nah, it is fine," Ethan said. "We can use that mode where monsters won't disrupt us, and I don't really want to use anything aside from my sword in a simulator."
