Chapter 61: Guild Test Part Five
Inside the Arena...
Able stood at one end of the arena and drew his sword readying himself. Ray looked at him with a smile before saying: "This battle will be fought without magic. This also includes me. You can however use Internal energy. Let the match begin."
Once the words left Ray's mouth he suddenly lost vision of Able. Able had automatically put all his internal energy into his feet quickly arriving at Ray's back. Ray felt danger from behind and with no hesitation swung his sword behind him. Blocking the strike. "Tch..." was all Ray heard as he frowned.
Ray couldn't understand how these kids, many years younger than him, were so outstanding. His pride as a B rank hunter was on the line! "Don't get cocky!" A large amount of energy swirled around Ray's body. The ground slightly shook and even the dirt and rocks began to lift off the ground swirling around Ray. "Whirlwind Strike!"
Ray Swung around slashing out with his sword, and in a three hundred and sixty degree area around him, a gust of energy shot out crashing into everything in its path.

I stared wide eyed at the screen when I saw such a maneuver. I couldn't help but speak my thoughts out loud. "To think such a thing was possible with just your internal energy... "
"Normally such a thing is very difficult to do, and the people who are able to do it are few and far in-between. It seems the instructor is highly skilled. It is no wonder he is the only one in many years to be close to being an A rank. It is too bad he retired so early." Marsil who at some point arrived at my side explained.
But her words did pique my interest. "Marsil, do you know the process of pushing the internal energy out of the body?"
"Mmm I once spoke to a high level adventurer before during my travel to this city that told me internal energy can be forced out but you have to have full control of the energy inside you. After that, practice until you succeed. But it would take many years to use it as an attack. The attack he did just now must be Ray's trump card. It seems your fiance's speed has caused Ray to need to go all out." Marsil answered.
"So..." I felt the internal energy inside me. I have been cultivating it every night. My cultivation method has allowed me to gain a good understanding of my internal energy, allowing me to move it around freely. Since I had full control over it, I figured I would try to push it out to test if I could do it or not.
With my hand held out in front of me, I concentrated on the palm of my hand. Soon a visible ball of energy began to swirl around on top of it. Just this small ball was enough to cause a gust of wind to sweep across the room. To see the difference I used my other hand to form a ball of magic power. Which floated quietly doing nothing at all.
"You!" Hearing Marsil's voice I looked up and saw her staring at me in surprise.
"It seems I can do it..." To be honest, after hearing Marsil talk about it, I thought it would be very difficult. But it was fairly easy. My guess was because I was at rank 3 for internal energy. The ball of pure magic power did nothing. It generated no wind. But the ball of internal energy caused wind to swirl around the room. But now that I had brought my internal energy out of my body I wondered if I could pull it back inside. Luckily this was also easy since it only took a thought to accomplish.
"Rei To think I would meet such a genius. I thought you were already a monster when using magic but to think you had such physical abilities as well. To be honest I am starting to feel bad for Ray." Marsil said but I guess she felt her words seemed harsh because she quickly added. "I did not mean a monster in a bad way, I meant it in a good way. "
I let out a chuckle seeing the stoic girl become flustered and smiled. "It's fine I understood what you meant. I think Able's match is about to finish."
It was true, Able was having an even match with Ray who had gotten completely serious. Although I had been messing around with internal energy and magic I still kept my eyes on the screen and saw Able and Ray having clashed more than fifty times. The five minute period was just about to end.
Sure enough, a few seconds later I heard Ray yell out: "Time!"
---
Able appeared in front of Ray, he was slightly out of breath and sweating from all his running around. Ray too was trying to catch his breath as he wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Lad, you really hold up to the Ronstine name. Your speed is incredible! Not to mention your attacks went for every vital on my body. If I missed blocking one attack I could have been seriously wounded. You need to at least leave this old man some pride."
"I do apologize but my fiancee is watching so I had to go all out." Able said apologetically.
"She is a lucky lass..." Ray let out a laugh and shook his head. He was the same way when he was younger. Always wanting to show off in front of the girls he liked.
"But sir, I will give you some advice. You will need to use magic when dealing with Rei or you might really end up hurt..." Able gave a small warning. He still felt chills running down his spine when thinking about his spars with Rei. The only one who was able to spar with her and make her lose was his father. Ever since she learned internal energy she has been a force to be reckoned with.
"I will keep it in mind..." Ray smiled bitterly. He also felt that what Able said was true. He had a feeling if he did not use magic while fighting her, he would end up at the hospital. How would he face his friends if they all hear that he got beaten up by a small girl?
