It's been 3 days now since the training begun. The Academy is left with Elaine's care. All students has been working hard. Inspired by the battle that they witness in the arena they'd been restless on their studies and training.
At some point they still have the fiery heart
Their spirit is burning with determination to surpass their own limit.
Mages started study and explore different varieties of spells as well as hand to hand combat knowing that it was their main weaknesses.
On the other hand weapon holder. Started to learn magic that can greatly boost their attributes. An anti magic spells to ensure their upper hand if they turn the tide to close combat against mages.
The whole training field is full off hard working students. They even added another weekly competition.
Everyone has the same goal and that's to protect their school against enemy attack.
However the enemy has already infiltrated the school. Ever since the school founded there are six people who disguise theirself as a student.
And another one had recently entered due to curiousity. She wanted to meet some people who held a big secret like they had.
It has been a normal day of after class training. Inside the arena everyone is gathered to watch some weekly competition.
The battle system is quite simple.
Anyone who won a match will continue fighting until he or she resign will be called until someone beat him/her.
But there is someone who is outstanding above all. She is showcasing her sword skills beating every challenger who step in.
A dual sword welder with long black hair. She's on her 70th winning streak and everyone is amazed by her ability. In adition that she only use one of her katana.
Everybody is cheering. She was unstopable and no one can match her speed and power
For someone like her it was an unbelievable for everyone who's watching the matches
Elaine is watching from the top of arena when the girl pointed her sword towards her direction and smirk. She is asking for a fight.
Elaine don't want to interact since she's the student council president. But when the crowd saw her everyone cheer for her and wanted he to accept the challenge.
She ha no choice but to accept it. She was about to step down when someone entered the arena. Elaine recognized the aura of the man even though he's wearing a cloak.
She identified the man who accepted the challenge for her. How come he was here when they are on their training in preparation for the upcoming battle.
"She's an enemy" Pixie told Elaine.
"Ms. Pixie? you're here" Elaine asked Pixie.
"Indeed We're to tackle some emergeny issue" Pixie replied
"How did you did you identify who is she" Elaine again asked.
"Instinct. Master foresaw her move" Pixie replied
"Hey i think i know you" Miys told the man.
"Indeed you're watching us the other day with your friend" Hiro replied and removed his cloak.
"Hah. So you want to fight me?" Miya asked him.
"Sure why not?' Hiro replied
"Don't get mad if I make you miserable infront of this people" Miya told Hiro.
"I'm okay with that" Hiro replied with smile
"Papa let me handle her" Liriel came out amd asking Hiro to fight his opponent.
"Hey missy are you sure about that?" Miya asked Lily.
"Uhm. Just don't cry if I beat your ass" Liriel replied.
"Lily?!" Hiro looked at Liriel
"Sorry" Liriel smiled in apologetic way.
"Hahaha. You're so charming Lily" Britannie laugh at Liriel's reaction.
"Hmf. Hahaha" Liriel laugh at Annie's comment.
"This girl is stronger than a Warlord. Perhaps she is one of Enemy leader. Am I right Onee-san?" Annie asked Miya.
Miya is shocked how did this girl blow up her cover and Onee-san? that word don't exist here. It is a native japanese word that addresses old ladies in polite manner. It can also be a direct address to older sister.
"Could it be--"
"Not her, but me" Hiro read Miya's thoughts using his Future Sight.
"How did you did know what I am about yo say?" Miya talked in Japannese language
"Hahaha Mind reading"Hiro replied using the same dialect while teasing Miya.
"We are are on the same Page. If my intuation is right. And you came here to find someone like you. Unfortunately Those people are from another land. They'd been sent to investigate ours. But there are two person who started to love the life here. And decided to stay. Perhaps you're going to love it sooner if you don't point you sword against us" Hiro told Miya.
"And how would I gain the love you mentioned?" Miya asked him
"Simple. We live in a toxic life before, we've been sent here and now we have the chance to re-do everything so why not live a happy and peaceful life" Hiro replied.
"So you are buying me with a sweet talk"
Miya told him.
"Well let's have a bet. since you insint to fight. What do you think?" Hiro told Miya.
"What is the price?" Miya replied.
"If you win you can do what ever you want in this place and even in this countries"
"What if I lose?" Miya is waiting for something usual.
"You'll live with for a whole and see the difference of free will and dominance"
"Papa? You'll let her live with us?? that was Lily in disagreable tone.
"Sure. why not? she can't escape my eyes" Hiro replied.
"Hey are you trying to recruit me?" Miya told him
"Nope Papa want to show how beautiful this place that you guys want to destroy" Said by Annie who waved her finger pointing at Miya and the hidding Finn in the crowd.
"Hahaha. What an amazing tracking ability" said by Finn Who stood up from the crowd
"This place is under our surveillance" replied by Lily who's already sitting next to him.
"Indeed" added by Annie who sit beside Lily.
Finn and Miya was shocked. How did those two move instantly without being noticed?
Finn is about to move his left hand but Annie frost it already. He was about to move his right hand but he can't feel it.
"Don't worry Papa will attach this later" said by Lily who is holding Finn's left hand.
Finn, Miya and everyone was shocked. It happened so fast. It was almost point five seconds. Finny used his full speed but his move was easily anticipated.
"Please sit and enjoy the battle" Annie told Finn with a sweet smile.
"How? Finn never lose in a speed battle" Miya muttered.
"Well he's been defeated" Hiro replied.
"So let's start the our duel just like you wanted" Hiro told Miya.
"Elaine expand the arena" Pixie ordered
"Yes" Elaine Took a Mithril stone in her pocket and channel her aura
"Expand" Elaine chanted.
The audience seat moved backward increasing its diameter three time larger
The ring also expand making it more wider.
Hiro created this feature few days ago. His purpose is to provide even more space for the contender.
Even the barrier became stronger to protect the crowd recieving stray attacks from the battle especially frojectile types.
"Shall we?" Hiro summoned his wooden katana.
"Are you mocking me?" Miya draw her sword.
The confuse crowd cheer. Though they don't have the grasp of the situation their battle junky spirit arised.
"Here I come" Miya started her attack.
She slash Hiro from above bit he blocked it. Miya draw her small sword and slash Hiro on his left side but Hiro blocked it again.
Miya started to attack using dual sword techniques However Hiro easily repel all her attack.
"Huh your fast. How about this?"
Miya released her energy and envelop her body with spiritual power her swords started to charge with red colored energy.
It looks like a red laser sword. She swung intensely. Hiro dodge the attack and it created a massive gust and leaving a deep cut with more than 5 meter long.
"So you can still dodge my attack"
"How about this?" Miya started to move faster and faster while swinging her swords.Creating tons of light after image. And dispoaing violent wind and surge of lightning that creates massive explosion while touching ground. Ground?
"Impossible" Miya can't believe her eyes Hiro is dodging her attack gracefully.
"How can you manage to dodge all of my attacks?" Miya paused and asked Hiro.
"And why does my attack become weaker?"
Miya added a question.
"Nope I just stronger and this whole field is ten times stronger to avoid collateral damage. Magic curse is set inside this school" Hiro replied.
"Is there such things?" Finn asked himself.
"There is as long as you enough power to manifest such spell" Annie replied.
"Is this the Sentinels Power Elaine asked Pixie.
"Yes based on my calculation the amout of damage she inflict every attack are far greater than the full scale attack of those Warlord. You see even the enhanced field is still receiving tremendous amount of damage." Pixie replied.
"Shall we continue?" Hiro asked Miya.
"Okay be ready. This mean I can go all out now." Miya replied.
