Chapter 92: Sparring in Swordsmanship

"So what are we going to do now?" Elysia asked the two girls who were sitting with her on the living room sofa lightly.

"Practice swordsmanship! You made a promise to me, Ely." Evelyn pumped her hands in front of her body with fervor.

"Sure, let's do that. Ella, you said you wanted to come with us. Is that still valid?" Elysia turned to the girl sitting on the other side of her.

"Yes, I also want to come! We can use the training ground earlier. Let's go there immediately." Ella invited as she got up from the sofa.

The three girls immediately returned to the training ground where they practiced healing magic and received lessons from the Pope a while ago. The table was gone but there was really no practice sword as far as the eye could see to all corners of the training ground, just a large empty exercise area with a few pets in cages at the end of the room.

"Ella, where are the practice swords for us to use?" Evelyn couldn't help asking.

After cooking together, she already felt more familiar with Ella and she tried not to compare the girl who looked a little like her at first glance.

A body that does look mature at a young age, with long golden hair and a daughter from an Emperor class person. Apart from different eye color and facial beauty, they look alike but with different talents and personalities.

Evelyn couldn't help but compare herself to Ella in various ways and the latter often came out victorious in her mind. Because of that, she feels inferior but she is trying not to think about it because Ella is a good girl and has no bad intentions.

"Hum ~ Hum ~ You must never have thought that behind this wall is the sword you are looking for." Ella hummed while walking cheerfully towards a wall that looked the same as the others, then she shifted it slowly.

"Wow! Is this an arsenal? There are so many weapons!" Elysia was struck by the sight of a large room filled with weapons, a room larger than Instructor Dillon's arsenal which she visited yesterday.

Within that hidden room were various practice swords that were numerous and varied from what was prepared on the training ground in the academy. Even real weapons exist with stunning variations but none more than Spirit Grade weapons.

Evelyn was also amazed to look here and there and entered to follow the other two girls.

"Er, this practice sword feels tougher and sturdier than the training sword in the academy." Elysia raised one practice sword from the sword rack while tapping it with her hand.

"Hehe ... Of course, the practice sword is made of quality wood from the Eothrus tree. In the academy, it is made of Iasheam wood. This practice sword is strong to withstand the collision force of the clash between two Great Masters if only using physical strength without magic." Ella explained happily.

Elysia and Evelyn go around for a moment in the armory to look at all the weapons curiously.

"Apart from sharp weapons, there is also a magic wand, amazing. Unlike Instructor Dillon's arsenal which only has sharp weapons." Evelyn took a wand with a round green crystal on it from the weapon rack.

"Yes, this warehouse has all forms of weapons collected from my grandfather's adventures. Instructor Dillon? Have you ever entered his arsenal?"

"Un, Ely successfully completed the challenge from him and received a reward in the form of a weapon of choice from his arsenal." Evelyn replied innocently as she returned the wand she was holding and took out a magic wand shaped like a long stick from the shelf.

Elysia who was looking at the long spears on the weapon rack was quite surprised by Evelyn's answer. Instructor Dillon asked them to keep it a secret, right?

"Marvelous, that's great, Ely! The challenge in the first week of the new class is actually a challenge that is impossible to complete, only a motivation for students to practice and study more diligently. You completed an impossible mission in the first year, I am very impressed."

Ella immediately approached Elysia and grabbed her hand with sparkling eyes, the latter was relieved that the former didn't question what weapon she took.

Evelyn did not divulge any secrets or touch any secrets because what was secret was the weapon Elysia took and not Instructor Dillon's arsenal or Elysia's victory over the challenge.

"Why is that impossible, Ella? It is true that challenges are given for motivation, but can't students still win the challenge and get the reward from the teacher?" Elysia tilted her head with a confused expression.

"Hmm... I was asked to complete a composite magic inscription in a special crystal that had been compiled to make it work into a magic item to make people fly during the magic research class yesterday." Ella answered back with a big smile.

"..."

Evelyn was stunned and Elysia was speechless. It is a rather impossible challenge for students at the Apprentice level who are not truly experienced in the field.

The two of them finally understood why Ella ended up finding it an impossible challenge, and maybe she and all the students in the third year so far have never completed the challenge given by the teacher.

"Despite being called an impossible challenge, Ely has already successfully completed two challenges!" Evelyn's sweet mouth is itching not to reveal the greatness of her best friend, for some reason she doesn't even know.

Elysia glanced at Evelyn once again. She had the urge to gag Evelyn's cherry mouth and smack her soft ass, really.

"Incredible! I was impressed and it's multiplied by two! Did you have platinum grade talent in the first year, Ely?"

"I have a silver card and because of that I share a dorm room with Evelyn."

Elysia was a little overwhelmed by the girl who was still holding her hand with sparkling eyes and awe. She did not want and will not lie, she answered with what has become a fact.

"En, is that so? That's a bit strange in my opinion. Even now, I feel like I have talent below you. I only managed to go from gold to platinum grade talent in the third year after struggling so hard." Ella also tilted her head in confusion but she didn't think for long after giving her opinion.

Evelyn felt the same way, she frowned and Serena came to mind. Unfortunately, she immediately shook her head to dismiss the suspicions and thoughts that might become slander for innocent people.

The three of them continued to go around the arsenal on the training ground to see all the training or real weapons until they finally chose the training weapon they wanted to use in their sparring.

Elysia chose odachi only because of Celestia, Evelyn chose the short sword because it was her favorite weapon, and Ella chose claymore as her flagship weapon. The three of them returned to the center of the training ground to decide who would have a spar against whom.
