Chapter 5 - Spar

The three of them walk in the direction of one of the machines, they wait for a while for the turn of the people before them after the last person before them, they step up.

"How would you like to be rated"

"Expression of force"

"Expression of force"

"Expression of force"

The three said simultaneously.

"Hit this with all your might with whatever weapon you wish to use" The instructor said to them pointing behind him a line up of different weapons.

"You are not allowed to use or come here with your personal weapons since some weapons have boosted specs, so you will only be using this ones provided here as long as you are within the training center" the instructor further explains.

Beatrix whispers to Arthur "Pick a sword else you'll destroy the machine"

"I'll use a sword" Ares tells the instructor.

He is given a sword and he goes into a simple stance, holds it for a second and casually slashes at the machine with high force.

The machine begins to read and he is placed on the bottom floor, of course everyone is amazed except the other two.

"Its quite sturdy" Ares states.

"Pass the sword" Beatrix says

She collects the sword and casually slashes down on the machine.

The machine begins to read and she is placed on the bottom floor, again everyone is amazed.

She passes the sword unto Arthur.

As Arthur grasps the sword she whispers "Do not break it"

Ares from behind calls to him "We just need to be able to train together, do not break it."

Arthur smiles, goes forward and also casually swings at the machine, it reads and he is also placed on the bottom floor.

The whole crowd Is in shock to be able to witness four people being placed on the bottom floor in one day.

Before this most of the year two and three students had already undergone this test and there were only two people who were placed on the bottom floor, one from year three Class-A and the other from year one, the both of them being the grandchildren of the Binary Head.

The three are given their pass card and they move into the main building.

The interior of the bottom floor is divided into two, the outer and the inner court.

The outer is divided by walls reinforced with mana into numerous large rooms without a top, each of size fifty by fifty meters used for aggressive training or sparring.

The inner court, smaller than the outer Is also divided into several smaller rooms of eight by eight meters in size with tops, these room were used for increased gravity training, it also contains a regulator that starts from (x26) and goes as high as (x30).

The three walk into one of the rooms in the outer court.

Beatrix hands them two rings.

"It swaps out your cloth for a training outfit instilled in it as soon as you input a certain amount of mana" she explains.

She puts her's on and demonstrates and a black leather fitted overall outfit appears on her revealing her nice appealing figure, the two guys are oddly staring at her.

The two wear the ring and after injecting a little amount of mana the same thing happens.

"Its quite tight" Ares complains.

"It was suprising when I heard the oh so proud Ares wanted to train with us, what got into you, you've even been less proud these days, are you good?" Arthur asks mockingly.

"Well apparently I have deemed you worthy enough to be stronger than me, apparently your parents and mine are good friends. Tho my parents didn't say much about your parents, one thing they were both stern on was that no other human on earth would dare to go against your parents if they knew who your parents were, except they were truly crazy" Ares responds to Arthur.

"For both my parents who are Constellations to say so… it would only make sense for their child to be out of the ordinary" he says further.

"Awwnn, is the almighty Ares finally giving up?" Arthur taunts him.

"I'm not giving up you…" he stops

"I'm just going to focus on getting stronger for now until I fully believe I have caught up or surpassed you" he continues.

"That's never happening" Beatrix asserts.

"You would be surprised" Ares responds.

"Ok ok so what are we doing today?" Arthur calls them together.

"How about sparring without the use of mana" Ares suggests.

"How about I just go against you two" Arthur says with a cheeky smile.

"How about we spar in a three way without mana or weapons" Beatrix suggests.

"Doesn't sound boring" Ares says.

"Sounds boring but fine by me" Arthurs says.

The three give themselves some distance, Beatrix tosses a small bead into the air and as soon as the bead hits the ground they begin to attack each other, it looked like a scattered disorganized fight at first, using only their hands and legs, but It gets a little more organized, Beatrix is sent flying as Arthur and Ares continue to exchange blows.

Beatrix comes flying back to land a kick on Arthur who was slightly backing her, Arthur spots her coming, he blocks a punch from Ares coming for his face, grabs Ares by neck and puts him in his previous position to take the kick from Beatrix at the right side of his head, this sends him flying into the corner, as Beatrix lands, she is greeted by a gentle palm on her belly that sends her flying into the corner.

The two, Beatrix and Ares now getting up look at each other and nod their heads, they both attack Arthur at the same time.

Beatrix tries a side kick but he dodges it by bending down, as he bends he sees a knee coming towards his face, it was Ares knee, he barely dodges this one by bending backwards in a way that his back is slightly arched, but as he looks up he sees the nice left leg of Beatrix coming down at him, he cant dodge this so he crosses his arms to block it.

The hit lands and Arthur smashes unto the floor, he tries to get up feeling some pain but was rushed by Beatrix with a punch.

He catches her fist with his right arm.

"In the end it still became a two versus one huh?" Arthur says with smile on his face.

Ares rushes towards Arthur, Arthur kicks Beatrix painfully on her belly as the pain could be seen on her face, towards the direction of Ares, Ares quickly dodges Beatrix coming towards him, before he can turn back to face who he was about to attack, Arthur was already in front of him, Arthur kicks him with a knee to his belly followed up by a 360 kick sending him flying in the same direction as Beatrix who is just trying to get up, Ares crashes into Beatrix.

They both sit there for a while trying to catch their breath.

"He's a monster" Ares states.

"As he should be" Beatrix responds as she tries to get up leaving Ares with a puzzled face.

"Couldn't you have gone a little more easy on us?" Beatrix questions as she approaches Arthur.

"You guys started it" Arthur replies as he shrugs he's shoulders.

"I'm thinking of going to the inner court for a while, you guys coming?"

"I'm good" Beatrix responds

"Same here, maybe I'll try it another time" Ares responds.

"Suit yourselves" Arthur says as he changes out of his training outfit.

"See you guys later" he says as he walks out.

As he steps out there is an earthquake felt throughout the school environment having the training centre as the source.

Everyone in the building quickly rushes outside to see whats going on and before them, right in the front of the training centre was a massive Red Gate.
