As I walked back to the arena Elise looked at me with a raised eyebrow " that's a interesting choice I don't think I have ever seen someone use it.. I think one of my instructors called it useless once when I asked about it" she said
I look at here and shrugged " eh I have always felt a connection with some weapons like swords,bows and a couple others but staff's have always had the strongest connection too I just never really had a reason to use it tell now" i say she looks at me a little confused "did you have training in them "
"Nope I just got one once " she looks at me a little stunned " and you think that's enough to say you have a connection with those types of weapons " she said a little stunned still try to process what I said
I just shrug " you'll see what I mean shall we begin " she looks at me for a minute then seeing I was serious she nods and goes to her end of the arena Elise then stretched her arm out and a magic circle appeared in her palm then a ice spear appeared in her hand with steam coming off it slowly " let's begin " we stare at each other for a minute then charge obvious she is faster when she is in range she thrusts the tip of her ice spear at me but I quickly deflect the tip to the side with the end of my staff
Seeing that her attack got deflected she quickly twisted to hit me with the butt of her spear but I blocked it with the middle section of my staff then I quickly spin to hit her with the other end of my staff but she ducks under my swing and thrust with the tip of her spear while crouched but I deflected it again with the end of my staff again but this time I had it travel up the shaft of her spear to hit her in the gut
Elise quickly does a back flip to get away she then stood there with a shocked expression "you are good even more so because you have never had training it's a little scary " I look at here with a smile on my face " honestly I'm surprised my self I just do what feels natural but I told you didn't I " I smirked at her
She looks at me then rolls her eyes with a smile on her face " yeah..yeah don't get ahead of yourself do note I was going easy on you let's see what you can really do" she said with a smirk but this one was not completely playful as she got into a pose
I gulped seeing this I regret try to look cool now this is not the effect I wanted I just wanted her to think I was cool and amazing not fight me well I would be lying if the fired up look on her face didn't make more attractive then before I better not disappoint you don't leave a woman like her unsatisfied
..4 hours later.. me and Elise enter into a trance like state while we where sparing we didn't how much time had past or what was happening to our bodies she had bruised on a couple places on her body while i have shallow cuts on my chest, cheek and one on my arm from her spear and a couple bruises on me to my legs and arms where she tried to is disarm and disable me
As we where about to clash we heard a loud voice " Alright that's enough you two " we look over at the same time and see it was zamel standing there with a frown but you can see a little of shock and surprise too
" that enough if you guys keep going someone's going to get seriously hurt and we haven't even started to help with his elements"
we look back at each other then I let out a hiss of pain and hunch over a little because everything hits me at once Elise comes running over to make sure I wasn't to hurt from her " are you ok I hope you're not hurt to bad I'm so sorry I didn't even notice " she said while checking me out like a concerned wife I would hiss in pain slightly when her hand touched a cut or bruise
And I couldn't help but smile at this " it's ok Elise I didn't know either it doesn't hurt to bad anyway it just hit me all at once since the adrenaline is gone I'll be fine"
She looks at me with a slight frown but with remorse in her eyes then looks at zamel
" can you heal him please " he looks at her and says " of course you know I was already going to do that" he said as he was rolling his eyes but had a slight smile on his face see us then walks over to us" you two battle maniacs give me your hands so I can heal you"
we put a hand in each of his palms then we see a magic circle appeared on our hands then a green light spread from the circle to the rest of our bodies our bruises and my cuts were healing mine slightly faster then hers.. zamel looks at me intensely "you must heal fast to already be healed completely my magic doesn't heal you it just boost the body's own healing at least the spell I used on you"
I nod " I have always been a fast healer" after a few minutes Elise and i feel brand new then zamel looks at both of us " well since that's settled let's get something to eat it's already lunch now and you'll need energy for the practice we'll start when we get
A hour later we where back In the training hall after eating we just had the cooks make us something really quick and eat so we can get back to the training hall I all so asked if they had breakfast and they said yeah they sent someone to get me but I was dead asleep so they let me be tell later when Elise got me which I didn't mind it was a big day for me yesterday I had little tuff time sleeping
As we are in the arena zamel begins to explain how to control mana so my element doesn't go wild " also when someone tries to use there element in a way that's isn't in its nature then a magic circle will appear because to get the effect you want you have to use the mana inside your body not just the mana around you like when Elise summons her spear or when I healed your wounds.. Ice isn't supposed to form a spear naturally and my nature element can't heal so precisely but by using the mana inside our bodies we can make It do such things that's also why every magic circle is unique to ever person it like a water mark thats why we call them spells when a magic circle appears because its not natural to the world but brought by someone's influence to the world But is also a double edged sword because all living things need mana to survive so if you use to much and you run out we will slowly die because our bodies will shut down and we can't absorb any mana for a bit so if we don't get help in time we will die
Lucky its different for you since you a traveler and come from a world without mana should you run out you will just feel very weak maybe even pass out for a bit but not die because your body knows how to survive without mana but still be careful "
After he was done explaining he put weird looking metal spheres around the arena " these will capture your lightning if it gets out of control and then steps out of the arena with Elise and brought out a square box with weird writing on it " and this will temporarily disrupt your star element should you lose control of it too " he said
Then he tapped his foot on the ground and two magic circles appeared in front of me a few feet and wooden dummies started to grow there sorta humanoid " focus on the bond you made with yourself and the mana Call to it tell it what you wish it to do and it will answer make sure you are precise in what you want or it will turn to chaos also keep a calm mind mana can also respond to emotions sometimes so keep a calm but precise and firm picture of what you want it to do
I take a deep breath and try to focus I raise my hand and point above the dummies and lightning starts to build above them near the ceiling then I brought my finger down and lightning struck the dummies having them catch fire
As I keep my arm raised I open my hand then slam it shut making a fist crushing one of the dummies with gravity
then I raised my arm to make gravity pick it up and then swung my are down so it would slam into and crush the other one
And just like that the two dummies were nothing but splinters or twisted wood when I looked over to see what the think and I see shock and surprise on there faces
" it took me years after me forming a bond to just be able to make a little ice he just summoned two whole lightning bolts and used his star element no problem " Elise said then turned to zamel to get his thoughts " if his elements were just strong I could understand and not be shocked but he didn't just display a lot of power but what shocks me is his perfect control over them these are elements that are extremely hard to control it's in there nature but he just did it with easily " zamel said
Then Elise thought for a little bit "maybe it's his quirk that is why he has perfect control over them i noticed to the lightning didn't spread and the gravity didn't start to get out of control"
