The training grounds of Kim Jung's secret compound, outskirt of The White lotus headquarters reverberated with the clash of steel and the crackle of magical energy.
Nestled in a secluded valley, the area was a patchwork of diverse terrains - from dense forest to open fields, providing the perfect backdrop for honing combat skills.
Saber stood at the edge of a clearing, her regal posture belying the intensity of her gaze as she watched Jess and Rio face off.
"Remember, Jess," Saber called out, her voice carrying easily across the field. "Your connection to Kim is your greatest strength. Feel the flow of his magic, let it guide your movements."
Jess nodded, her grip tightening on the crimson spear in her hands.
Sweat beaded on her brow as she focused, trying to sense the invisible threads of magic that bound her to Kim.
Across from her, Rio grinned, his eyes alight with excitement.
