10:00 P.M., a time when no classes were going on.
Adrian was training alone in a dark forest inside Nova.
Shwik—
The sword he stretched out caused the air to undulate. After a light jab, he let out soft slashes, followed by a spinning slash. The perfect flow in his movements made it seem like the sword was protecting the swordsman.
It was a flawless sword technique, sharper than a blade and lighter than a feather.
Just like this, Adrian reflected on his sword technique every night. To not lose the mindset of a Knight, and to advance his sword technique a step further.
Nowadays, there was another reason he was devoting himself to training. That was...
"Are you training?"
At that moment, someone's voice rang out.
Startled, Adrian turned around.
"... Lucas?"
Lucas was leaning against a tree, seemingly having watched his sword training. Adrian put his sword away. Lucas approached him with a smile.
