Chapter 6 Becoming An Adventurer (2)
POV Ares ~
As soon as I heard the blow of the whistle I rushed toward the trainer using my snake step technique which only left my After images on the left and right side like a snakes movements as I moved towards him,
And as soon as he was in my attack range I jumped in the air and used my sword skill fell crescent, the blue in color crescent fell towards where the trainer was,
I didn't stop at that and continuously used my skill two-three times again, the blue crescents attacked the trainer from all directions.
The trainer looked quite shocked by the speed of my attacks that attacked him from all directions and parried the with his sword...
The smoke raised from where he was, and the ground was destroyed leaving only the sword marks on the ground,
The trainer came out of smoke seeming not that affected by my attacks but I knew better than my attack did him some damage,
If looked closely the wrist in which he was carrying his sword was slightly bleeding,
Seeing that, a small grin came on my face unknowingly to me..,
There was no change in expression on the trainer's face, and he directly rushed towards me and swung his sword toward me,
I dodged his attack by just taking a step backward, Seeing me dodge his attack so easily he continued attacking me by swinging his sword left, right, and all over,
I dodged his every attack moving left and right by thins breath and parrying some attacks with my sword, and as our swords meet each other at a fast pace only sparks could be seen with the naked eyes of normal people like the receptionist...
We both attack each other for a few minutes at a fast pace and most of the time I was on defense due to the difference in our power...
But I still was able to dodge and parry his all attacks and I wasn't at any disadvantage.
It's not like his attacks were slow but I have faced attacks much faster than his while practicing with Mika,
A smile crept on my face while parrying and dodging his attacks because I was able to do that without using my element, I heard he was an A-Rank adventure, and keeping up with him without being at disadvantage was quite a good achievement for me..,
Seeing that his attacks isn't working on me he then used his element wind and send an attack toward me,
It took me by surprise but I tried to dodge it but I was somewhat late, the attack gazed on my right cheek and blood started to drip from it.
As I was preparing for my next attack, I felt a sudden chill from my back,
I slowly turned my head to see its source, my eyes widened in shock and my mouth was wide open,
There I saw Mika's hair floating mid-air her eyes turned red and the whole training hall was vibrating from her killing intent trying to destroy everything in its path...
The Guild master who was standing near her started vomiting blood, the receptionist who was not far from them lost her consciousness then I turned to where the trainer was,
The trainer was on his knees oozing blood from all over his body, his eyes bloodshot, and blood was dripping from his ears, nose, and mouth...he seemed to lose consciousness while sitting on his two knees.,
Only I seemed to be unaffected by it, " "
It's not like I can come out unscathed from that much killing intent it is just that her killing intent didn't even reach me...
This means she is controlling her killing intent by creating her domain...
Only a few people can make their domain which is when they reached and obtained a certain level of power that transcend humans...
And that people are known as transcended beings...
There are only a few of them in the whole world and we can count them on our fingers...
I never thought Mika was a transcended being...
"...."
********
I soon came back to my senses and rushed towards Mika and shook her left and right and screamed her name as loudly as I can to make her stop, but that doesn't seem to work.
Then I pulled her by her arms with my full strength and kissed her on the cheeks and hugged her tightly while wrapping my arms around her waist and burying my head on her stomach...
It's quite embarrassing but she sometimes force's me into doing that...and that's not the worst part she even wants me to sleep over with her and Aegis on weekends.."...."
I stayed there for a minute and soon I noticed her killing intent reducing by every second and after a few more seconds it dispersed completely...
She came back to her senses and rubbed her hands on my hair and then on my right cheek where a small amount of blood was dripping and took out a high-level health potion and made me drink it.....
What a waste of a high-level potion, I thought to myself...
High-level health potions are like an extra life for adventurers which could help heal deep injuries, damaged organs, and even decapitated body parts.....
You can't buy high-level health potions even if you have a huge amount of money, hence it's sought after by every adventurer all across the world...
Aegis was the one who told me about potions, and she's the one that makes and supplies these potions to Mika...
Aegis is not only a healer but also a potion maker, hence sought by every kingdom.
She regularly changes her identity while visiting other kingdoms because her presence would cause her to die by overworking.
Mika was the one who sponsored her when she was a newbie in her profession and hence from then on they became sisters...
That's what Aegis told me, I got quite close to her too she always stays at home reading comics or watching animes so I visit her regularly after my training to pass my time, and sometimes Mika joins too...
Aegis stays on the first floor of Mika Amami's mansion...
*************
After all, that scene caused by Mika we returned to the VIP lounge and were sipping tea, like what happened a few minutes ago was just a dream...
After getting back to his senses and healing himself the Guild master came to the VIP lounge where I and Mika were enjoying tea together...
He had a fear and guilty expression on his face while Mika was glaring at him as if boring a hole through him...
Mika explained to me why she lost her composure, she said trainers didn't suppose to use these elements and skills while dueling with the adventurers with their swords...
They had to just use their swordsmanship to test and determine the adventurer's rank...
And in the case of adventurers that use magic, they can just use basic level spells to attack and defend themselves,
In my case, the trainer fighting with me used his element wind during our fight which was against the rules.
That's the reason why she was angry at them and not because I got hurt or I had a bleeding cheek.... definitely not,
I don't know why but she repeated that words twice.." "
Then I moved my attention to the Guild master who was bowing countlessly and apologizing, he even promised to compensate me...
Then Mika took him somewhere to talk somethings in private, they both returned after a few minutes and I noticed Mika smiling at me innocently,
Whereas Guild master's face seemed pale and he was sweating all over and...trembling?
" "
Then the Guild master rushed out in a hurry leaving me and Mika alone in the VIP lounge..,
I saw Mika from the corner of my eyes and saw she was still smiling innocently with her eyes focused on me...
She didn't say anything and sat beside me while hugging me from the side and putting the side of her head on mine.
I can hear her heartbeat.."thump" "thump"
And she was muttering something in low voice..." my precious" "my precious"?
My body suddenly shuddered all over...
*********
But soon the guild master returned carrying something in his hand and handed it to Mika with trembling hands...
Mika checked the card and observed it for a good few seconds and smiled softly while passing it to me.
I took the card given to me by Mika and then checked it and my eyes widened seeing its contents.." "
I looked at Mika for an explanation but she just smiled at me innocently.
It was a platinum card on which my info and adventurer rank was written.
