Chapter 101 Sword Fairy.
Azriel and the Three World Fairies travelled through clouds and mist before they finally landed on the Island that was floating in the air.
Azriel looked around curiously,
The Island didn't have any major differences compared to the ground, however, it was surrounded by clouds, making everything more beautiful compared to the ground.
"I will be explaining the First Step of the Real Trial,"
While Azriel was looking around, the Four Winged Fairy muttered with a small smile.
Azriel turned around and glanced at her, showing that he was listening.
"What is your Favorite Weapon?"
"A Sword." Azriel has already thought about it since he knew what the Trial will be from Vasuki.
"Alright, the First Step of the Trial is Sparring and Learning from the Sword Fairy. You will clear the Trial as long as the Sword Fairy is satisfied by your performance."
Hearing that, Azriel frowned.
"It is different from what Vasuki told me."
"Vasuki?" The Four Winged World Fairy frowned.
"It's the Outlawed Dragon, Lady Fer." The Two Winged World Fairy, who stopped and talked with Vasuki answered.
"Oh? Him…" The Four Winged World Fairy realized and nodded to herself.
"Yes, he told me that I have to defeat a Fairy using my favourite weapons and that I can't use my Skills and Cultivation."
Azriel then narrowed his eyes and questioned,
"Did he lie to me?"
The Four Winged World Fairy, however, shook her head and smiled.
"No, he did not lie to you. He only told you what other Trial Takers told him. And he is correct, other Trial Takers had to defeat Sword Fairy in order to advance.
However, Azriel Ruinous, you cannot compare yourself to other Trial Takers.
You are different.
You are special.
For you, the Trial has been changed and the difficulty has been increased."
The Four Winged World Fairy answered with a small smile on her face.
"Huh? Isn't defeating the Sword Fairy harder than learning from her? Are you sure the difficulty is increased not decreased?" Azriel questioned.
The Fairy, however, shook her head again and questioned back.
"Do you really think other Trail Takers defeated the Sword Fairy when she was giving her all? Azriel Ruinous, you should not underestimate the Sword Fairy.
She is a being who has given her everything to a sword.
No, it is better to say that she was created out of the sword.
She was created out of the experiences of all the Swordsmen, from the greatest to the weakest, that have ever lived in the land of Yrniel.
She didn't even use 10% of her Actual Swords Skills when she fought those Trial Takers, and even after that, it took them decades to actually defeat her.
The same goes for Spear Fairy, Mace Fairy, Archer Fairy, Whip Fairy and all other Fairies.
We Fairies do not reproduce, rather, we are created out of experiences of whatever we specialize in."
Azriel nodded in realization and then, he questioned,
"Won't that make you fairies the Strongest Race? Why don't we see any of you in Yrniel? Is it because even you cannot break free from this place?"
"We leaving this place, it is not up to us, we were born out of experiences, our existence is supported by this place.
If we leave, we will not be able to survive.
As for us being the strongest race, that is incorrect.
We are not the Strongest Race.
Although we are created out of experiences and are indeed the best in our respective fields, we do not have any cultivation, nor can we cultivate.
Sword Fairy's Sword Skills may be strong, strong enough to even defeat an Expert Stage Cultivator while she is nothing but a Mortal, however, she cannot take on actual strong cultivators."
Azriel was now even more confused,
"No, I definitely sense some sort of power from you…
There is no way a Mortal can increase such power…"
"What you sense is not our power, it is the power of the World's Core, this place. We can use this power if the Will of the World's Core allows us to.
This way, although we cannot cultivate, we can set our Cultivation to any level we want and fight against actually strong opponents." The World Fairy answered Azriel's every question patiently.
Actually, if it was anyone else other than Azriel, she would have ignored him and continued with her work after sending him to Sword Fairy, however, as she said before,
Azriel was different.
Of course, that is not her own thoughts,
Those were the thoughts of the World's Core.
The World's Core wishes to Treat Azriel differently than others.
And they, as World Fairies, cannot defy the World's Core, neither do they wish to.
"So you are saying that you can defeat the strongest person in Yrniel if you borrow the Power of the World's Core?"
"Yes but it all depends on the World's Core."
"And every single one of you can do that?"
"Yes."
Azriel then frowned.
"Doesn't that mean that as long as the World's Core wishes it, you guys can completely destroy Yrniel?"
Again, the Fairy shook her head.
"I think you are misunderstanding something here.
Yrniel and the World's Core are not different from each other.
Yrniel is the World and World's Core is literally World's Core or Yrniel's Core.
World Core would never wish to 'destroy' Yrniel.
Also, the energy the World's Core can provide us is not unlimited.
Every World needs energy to keep sustaining life forms.
If the World Runs out of that energy, it will be destroyed.
Therefore, the World Core would never give us the Energy outside the World's Core unless it is absolutely important."
Azriel could feel that his head was going to explode from all the knowledge he had received today.
Yrniel and this place were the same.
This place was part of Yrniel.
Every world has this energy that they can't lose.
Fairies can get stronger if they use that energy.
Ugghh…
He would need some time to digest all of this.
"I believe it is better if you start the Trial, knowing about these complex matters right now will only confuse you more and more.
Also, it is not something you should bother yourself with.
At least for now."
The Fairy suggested.
Azriel thought about it a little and then, he nodded.
"Alright. Let's start the Trial."
He didn't like complex matters either.
He would rather meet this Sword Fairy this Four Winged World Fairy was talking about.
A small smile appeared on the Fairy's face and she nodded.
"Then I wish you luck, Azriel Ruinous."
Then, the Fairy disappeared and everything around Azriel turned white.
Azriel frowned, he then looked around and noticed that he had appeared inside a huge, white room. Walls, ceiling, floor, everything hair was white with no pattern whatsoever.
Azriel's eyes then fell on a beautiful silver-haired, 1.72 meters tall woman, with silver eyes, red lips and a nigh-perfect face. She had a perfect, athlete-like body that was neither too muscular nor too fat and the thing that stood out the most about her was the four, white feathered wings on her back.
Azriel didn't even need to think and could easily deduce that she was the Sword Fairy.
How?
Because she was carrying a golden white coloured sword.
"Are you Azriel Ruinous?" The Sword Fairy questioned.
"I am." Azriel nodded.
The Sword Fairy then nodded and raised her sword.
"Alright, then let's start with a spar, this way, I will learn what the level of your current swordsmanship is and I will be able to form the best plan to teach you.
Just think of the sword you use and the sword will appear in your hands on its own."
Azriel did as he was told and his black-red sword appeared in his hands.
"Now attack me with everything you have.
Of course, you cannot use your Skills and Cultivations."
The Sword Fairy didn't talk much and started with the main topic.
An attitude that Azriel very much appreciated.
He then dashed towards her with his Sword in his hand and then,
*Clank*
Their swords clashed with each other.
Seeing that she blocked her attack, Azriel wasn't surprised, he quickly shifted his weight backwards and attacked her waist with his sword.
The world fairy easily blocked his attack and motioned him to continue attacking.
Azriel's eyes turned cold and then, he increased his speed.
Thighs, feet, arms, shoulders, hands, stomach, chest, face, and head, for the next few hours, he aimed at every single part of the Sword Fairy's body as quickly as he can, however, the fairy blocked all his moves without even breaking a sweat.
Actually, from her expression, she looked rather bored.
A look that Azriel did not like at all.
He then increased his speed even further however, just as he attacked her waist, the Sword Fairy blocked his attack and with a graceful movement, she placed her sword on Azriel's neck and his eyes widened in surprise.
There were no 'quick' movements, Azriel could see what she did very clearly, however, even after that, he could not react to it at all.
No, it was more like she attacked in a way that his body couldn't block her attack at all.
He completely overshadowed him in terms of Skill.
"You…"
After the spar ended, the Sword Fairy narrowed her eyes,
"You aren't a swordsman, are you?"
