As they got back on their feet and saw the grin on Seraphina's face.
'This is the first time I have seen her like this.'
Luna spoke as she kept looking at the woman on guard and started to gain back her balance.
'Well she looks nice with that grin.'
Keiran replied with the same grin on his face. Luna's aura turned darker hearing his words and she looked at him.
'Don't think unnecessary things. There is no one else in this world who can make me fall in love like you.'
Feeling the change in her he spoke in a calm voice but their link was flooded by his feelings for her which caused her to blush.
The amount of love was so overwhelming that it made her eyes turn into a heart shape.
'Focus on the fight for now.'
Hearing Keiran's words Luna looked back in the front and charged first.
After a slight distance appeared between them, Keiran moved as well.
Seraphina, who was watching their actions with full awareness, shocked to see that although their speed was quite slow, their actions were organized and planned.
she watched witch full attention as Luna attacked her up front which she parried and out of the corner of her eye, she started looking for Keiran.
She saw that the boy was nowhere to be seen she spread her awareness and saw that he was already beside her.
'These weights are slowing my actions in turn killing the real attack. I might have been already behind her without them.'
Clicking his tongue he improvised and changed the strategy while charging at her from the side.
Seeing Him charge at her she parried Luna's attack and increased her awareness.
Luna took the time she focused on Keiran to sneak around and attack but the slow movements made it difficult for her to successfully get any attack connected.
Seraphina was surprised their sword play was already quite high for someone their age.
If they did not have the limitation of weights they could be said to be better at it than most adults.
After a few more attacks the twins created distance and saw that she was still standing in the same place without any drop of sweat on her.
" I have seen enough of your techniques and they are quite impressive for someone your age. Now show me your power. "
Keiran and Luna nodded and changed their stance to a relaxed posture.
"Link start."
As those words left Keiran's mouth the twins' eyes gained an outline of contrasting color.
Their bodies moved in different directions while their speed remained the same.
Seraphina saw this and narrowed her eyes. She saw that there was not a single fluctuation of ether on the twins' body.
"Why are you not using ether?"
She asked Luna who attacked her from her left side. To her questions she received two replies at the same time.
"Because we can use this technique with and without ether."
Her eyes widened hearing the voices and she hurriedly moved out of the way instead of deflecting the attack.
After she moved away, in the place where she was standing there were two swords.
Without wasting any time they attacked her straight ahead.
"Even though this is your first time using this, you already are using it quite well."
.
.
.
She corrected their mistakes while the sparring session.
Second by second, hours went by and the twins were now drenched in sweat, they were sitting on the ground gasping for breath.
"Take rest, then we will train your ether control after that."
Seraphina spoke as she wiped small drops of sweat from her forehead.
Looking at her Luna's expression twitched but she looked at Keiran and spoke through their link.
'Did you feel that?'
'Yeah, I felt the level of my understanding regarding swords increase and it got mixed with your experience.'
He looked at the blue sky and continued
'If it was the same for you and we train like this we will get double results with a single amount of effort.'
Luna nodded as she laid beside him on the ground.
Looking at the duo Seraphina shook her head and she placed back her swords and sat beside them.
"What are these weights made of ?"
Keiran asked as looked at his hands with wonder.
"Nothing special, they just have the technology that makes your nerves give the brain a command that you are under pressure or your weight has suddenly increased."
The woman replied while she caressed the boy's head.
Luna was about to stop her but when she saw the change in Keiran's feelings she bit her lips and stopped herself.
Looking at the pouting face of Luna Seraphina did the same with her, causing her to look away.
Her red ears caused Keiran to chuckle a little.
After a few minutes of rest they got up and sat on the ground.
"Now you will try to manipulate your ether and try to release it outside your body."
Seraphina guided them step by step on the basics of how to control ether. She was shocked at the speed at which they were making progress. Their bond also helped then in sharing their experience with each other.
As the time went by the day came to end and dusk arrived.
"Let's stop here, go take a bath and I will send your dinner to your room. I don't think you wanna see him right now."
As the red haired woman the twins nodded in agreement.
"Thank you, Seraphina."
Keiran spoke, causing the woman to smile and shake her head.
" You are my kids too, so there is no need for thanks. I just hope Aiden would just stop seeking his father's approval."
She sighed and looked at the shining walls of the castle while her mind was somewhere else.
"No need to worry too much, he will be able to understand everything soon. He needs time, so make sure to spend your time with him too or he will think you are ignoring him."
Keiran spoke as he patted his clothes to remove the dust.
He gave Luna a hand and helped her get up too.
"Let's meet here again tomorrow. We will continue the same thing."
walking towards the hall, they went Separate ways.
Back in the training area, around one of the pillars a shadow flickered for a while before returning back to normal.
