With time, Sylvia, who had initially been cautious to avoid mistakes and maintain her noble appearance to avoid Eugene's wrath, became more open and confident in herself.
Eugene suggested that she train volunteers to become the city's first soldiers. Sylvia, being the most knowledgeable in magic and weapon combat, was the perfect choice for this task.
Sylvia began training 55 elven volunteers. Out of these, 30 showed interest in magic, and Eugene appointed them as the official magicians for research and development of magic in the city. The rest joined the human volunteers to learn weapon combat. Thanks to the elves' knowledge of weapon crafting, they began making swords, spears, and bows from quality metals.
Sylvia trained them as her new master, Eugene, instructed. She ensured they learned the basics of combat and how to use magic effectively in battles. Over time, the soldiers showed significant improvement in their skills and became more prepared to defend the village.
One day, after a training session, Sylvia approached Eugene, who was deep in thought by the river. She said, "Eugene, I want to give you a report on the training progress."
Eugene smiled and replied, "You're doing a great job, Sylvia. How is the training going?"
Sylvia answered confidently, "Everyone is progressing well. The magicians are quickly learning how to control their powers, and the fighters are becoming stronger and more efficient."
Suddenly, Eugene stood up and said, "Great. What about you, Sylvia? Are you ready for a friendly match?"
Sylvia was surprised by Eugene's offer but smiled and said, "Of course, I would be happy to."
The match between Eugene and Sylvia began on the riverbank. Sylvia relied on her magic and weapon skills, while Eugene used his unique skills and the knowledge he gained from the
The fight was balanced, with both exchanging blows and skills. Sylvia used various magical spells, while Eugene skillfully dodged her attacks and used clever tactics to counter.
Eventually, Sylvia stopped, panting, and said, "You are very strong, master. I have learned a lot from this match."
Eugene looked at Sylvia with a sudden smile and said, "Now, Sylvia, let's make this serious."
"Have I been discovered?" Sylvia said in surprise.
"Well, I'll use everything I have," Eugene responded.
With a quick chant, Sylvia's body started to glow with lightning, and the surrounding magical energy intensified. At the same time, Eugene activated his unique skill, "Avenger," and prepared to face her increased power.
Sylvia charged at Eugene with incredible speed, and her attacks became more intense. Eugene struggled to fend off her relentless blows, but this was exactly what he wanted. A wild grin appeared on his face as he felt the new strength granted by the "Avenger" skill.
"You are really strong, Sylvia!" Eugene shouted as he dodged her rapid attacks.
Sylvia looked dazzling and focused, her body glowing with lightning as she tried to hit Eugene with all she had. She used the "Lightning Body" spell to enhance her speed and strength, but Eugene was studying her movements carefully, learning from each blow that landed on him.
In a swift moment, Sylvia cast a powerful spell aimed directly at Eugene. It was a ball of electric energy moving toward him at an astonishing speed. However, Eugene, thanks to the "Avenger" skill, absorbed the damage and grew even stronger.
"Now it's my turn!" Eugene shouted, boosting his power and charging at Sylvia with lightning speed.
Sylvia was surprised by the change in the situation but prepared to defend herself. They exchanged blows at an incredible pace, each using their full power and skills. Sylvia relied on her magic and speed, while Eugene depended on his unique skill and his increasingly strong body.
As time passed, Sylvia began to feel exhausted, but she didn't back down. Conversely, Eugene felt the strength growing within him, giving him extra motivation to continue.
Finally, Eugene stopped and said, "Alright, I think that's enough. You are amazing, Sylvia."
Sylvia smiled, panting heavily.
They both stood there, Eugene covered in wounds and injuries, possibly with some broken ribs, but he had a plan for his new strength.
Sylvia thanked Eugene for sparing her. Eugene, standing there bleeding, looked at her as if she was the dumbest person in the world.

Eugene felt a new power surging from within him. He focused his gaze on Sylvia and said in a steady voice, "Sylvia, thank you for the match. I have something I need to do now."
At that moment, Eugene felt the energy flowing from his heart, manifesting as a light that surrounded his body and extended toward Sylvia. Sylvia couldn't move, feeling the strong bond forming between her and Eugene.
The
From that day on, Sylvia began to feel an improvement in her power and abilities, benefiting from the bond between her and Eugene.

After Sylvia left, Eugene took off his clothes and jumped into the river to wash off the blood. Thanks to his body's strength, the bleeding stopped quickly.
After a few seconds of relaxing in the river and enjoying the tranquility, Ramris appeared out of nowhere and said to Eugene with an annoyed expression, "You're resting without waiting for me?"
With a magical gesture, her clothes vanished, revealing her naked body. She jumped into the river and started playing with the water. Eugene, unable to bear looking, directed his gaze to the sky to avoid strange thoughts.
"Ramris, what are you doing here?" Eugene asked, trying to maintain his composure.
"I just wanted to enjoy the river with you. It was a great fight with Sylvia, and I enjoyed watching it," Ramris replied with a smile.
"But, do you have to do this?" Eugene said, struggling to avoid looking at her.
"Why not? We're here alone, and there's nothing to disturb us," Ramris said innocently while splashing water towards Eugene.
Eugene wasn't sure how to respond, so he continued trying to stay calm.
"Okay, Ramris. Let's just enjoy the moment without any problems," Eugene finally said.
"I agree, Eugene. But you should know, we are friends now, and we should be together in everything," Ramris said as she moved closer to him.
Those moments were filled with peace and mixed emotions for Eugene. He knew that Ramris meant a lot to their team, but he had to learn how to deal with her unique and strange personality.
As the two continued to relax in the river, Eugene felt the burden of leadership and his responsibilities growing. But he knew that with Ramris, Sylvia, and the rest of the team, they would be able to face any challenges that might come their way.
With time, Eugene started to feel more comfortable and secure with these new friends, who had become an integral part of his life in this new world.
