"Good! Now then, since we have finished warming up. It's time for combat training!"
I was sitting between Rena and Shiori, who both were quite relaxed. Honestly, it was quite interesting that since we left in two weeks, Shiori had been training extra hard, which didn't match her looks and normal actions.
Yet there was still a slight resistance in my heart and stomach because of what she had done that stopped me from accepting her completely.
"Akira, you will be fighting Knight Lucas, a Rank-C knight, but don't underestimate him; Lucas is one of the youngest knights with great potential!"
Brian introduced the knight, Lucas, who looked like a twenty-something-year-old man with short black hair, blue eyes and pale white skin—he was dressed in heavy armour compared to the lighter gear we were wearing.
Lucas drew his sword and shield, getting ready to fight while I simply stretched a little bit—I didn't want to reveal my full strength yet.
