I glanced over the azure window floating before my eyes and a slight grin crept onto my face. It felt as though all of my hard work had finally paid off.

My Sword Proficiency had ascended to a higher rank. It was rare for skills to advance in this way, but the proficiency of a weapon was an exception. The more one wielded a particular weapon, the higher their proficiency skill rank would become.

"..."

I clenched my fist in silence, taking a deep breath before slowly sheathing my Katana. For an entire week, I had dedicated myself to training within the confines of this private room, only leaving to eat. I even chose to sleep within its walls, so that I could resume my training instantly upon waking.

Hours upon hours of swinging my sword had honed my skills and increased my Stamina, while meditation provided bonus Mana and its control. The progress felt rapid, but it was primarily because I had prior knowledge on the most efficient methods to train oneself.

Running my fingers through my dark hair, I let out a low growl as I felt the ache reverberating throughout my entire body. It was no surprise, really, considering Aiden had likely undergone less training in his lifetime than I had in just one week.

Sheathing my Katana, my partner throughout this week-long training, I couldn't help but steal a quick glance at its blade. To my satisfaction, it was as sharp as the day I had purchased it, with no hint of dullness along its edge. It was almost as if the weapon had never been used at all, a testament to its impeccable craftsmanship.

As I pushed open the door to the private training room and stepped out, I began to make my way towards the exit. However, as I walked through the public areas, my attention was drawn to the commotion around me. It soon became clear that there were several spars taking place, each one drawing a small crowd of onlookers.

Despite the chaos, one particular fight caught my eye, and I couldn't help but slow my pace to watch.

Clank...

The clash of two weapons echoed throughout the area, sending shockwaves through the crowd and eliciting cheers of excitement. The combatants nimbly retreated, their eyes locked in a fierce gaze of competitive fire.

One of the fighters was a girl with bright red hair that cascaded down her back in luscious waves. Her large brown eyes were intense and focused, and her face was strikingly beautiful, resembling that of a model. Her tightly-fitted uniform hugged her curves in all the right places, accentuating her hourglass figure. She wielded a long rapier with a blood-red blade and a golden hilt, displaying impressive skill and precision.

Her opponent was a male student with striking golden hair and piercing green eyes that sparkled with amusement as he fought. His tall frame and the sheer size of his greatsword indicated that his strength was beyond normal. Despite his intimidating appearance, he seemed to be enjoying himself immensely, grinning from ear to ear as he clashed blades with his opponent.

"Drake and Tess..."

I murmured under my breath as I watched the exchange between the two protagonists of Leclentia, marveling at their incredible strength and skill. It was clear that both of them were far beyond the bounds of a normal student, and I couldn't help but smile as I watched them fight.

I didn't feel disheartened or discouraged by my own relative weakness in comparison. Instead, I felt a sense of relief knowing that the main characters would be able to hold their own against the demons that threatened this world. Their strength was essential for Leclentia's survival, and I knew that they had to be strong if we ever wanted to survive.

Clank...

Finally, the battle was coming to an end as Tess found herself being pushed back by a devastating strike from Drake, his greatsword proving too much for her rapier to handle. With a resounding clash of metal, Tess's weapon flew out of her hand and clattered to the ground outside the arena, leaving her defenseless against her opponent's next move.

"I... give up"

Biting her lip, Tess raised her hands in the air, a gesture that prompted a roar of excitement from the onlookers. The crowd erupted in cheers, their excitement palpable as they celebrated Drake's victory.

However, amidst the cheers, there were also a few who had bet on Tess's victory, and they hissed in pain as they watched their money slip away.

"As expected..."

I just quietly nodded my head, acknowledging the result, since I was expecting Tess's defeat. She is a mage, not a swordsman, so it was obvious she'd lose in a close combat. Turning to leave the area, I took a step forward before I felt a hand firmly grip my shoulder, causing me to flinch in surprise.

"Do you want to have a spar?"

A voice asked, and I turned to find a tall figure with long brown hair looking at me expectantly. Although I didn't recognize him, he seemed friendly enough.

"My name's Oscar, nice to meet you!"

Shaking his hand I felt calluses on his fingers and smirked. He was a hard worker!

Even if I felt tired I wanted to spar against him.

"My name is Aiden."

Without another word, Oscar led the way through the crowd towards one of the empty arenas. He quickly climbed onto the platform, and took out a long spear, with a silver spearhead.

I also followed suit, unsheathing my black katana and clutching its hilt with both of my hands.

"Damn!"

Just before we started to fight, Oscar pointed towards the arena where Drake and Tess had just recently fought. I looked over in that direction and saw that a commotion had broken out among some of the spectators.

It seemed that some people who had bet on Tess were unhappy with her loss and had started a fight with those who had bet on Drake. I could see fists flying and people shouting as they clashed with each other.

"..."

Oscar and I watched in silence, witnessing as within seconds, teachers on standby had rushed into the fray, breaking up the fight and detaining all of the brawlers.
