Chapter 11 - [Training 2]

"Did that just happen?" Caelum said dumbfounded by his calm and indifferent attitude towards them.

It had to be noted that all of them came from high class backgrounds that could even rival the government yet he just walked past us without a care in the world.

"Yeah that did happen." Sort of expecting this Selene wasn't too surprised at his actions but she still found him a little peculiar, it felt like she knew him but she didn't.

She checked the expressions of the others and saw a myriad of emotions such as shock, interest, and amusement but when she saw Zack he had a grin on his face.

She sighed looking at Zack with a feeling that things weren't gonna be easy from now on. While she thought that Zack stood there grinning while looking at a black interface it was a system that was different from normal ones as it allowed him to get stronger and gain items.

On the system he saw a quest.

—————————

[Quest: raise affection level of Nyrix]

[Relationship: Strangers 0/50]

[Rewards: One rank up, S rank sealed item of choosing]

[Time limit: N/A]

—————————

He felt excitement at the prospect of ranking up and gaining an [S] rank item from becoming friends with Nyrix but also felt he would enjoy fun things around him.

Walking through the first year hallway towards the training grounds Nyrix felt a chill crawl up his back as he hurried to the training grounds.

He stared at the massive white room with amazement as he saw all the facilities inside such as a gravity room to help with speed and strength training and puppets to spar against.

The training grounds were filled with first year students eager to get strong but Nyrix ignored them and went into one of the empty private rooms to train the sword style he got from Lux.

Since each student was given a medium dimension ring he was able to bring his manual with him to practice instead of going to his dorm to grab it. Summoning the sword art from his dimension ring he opened it and studied it.

It was called the Reavers grace it's a sword style about precise counter attacking with lightning speed and only using the minimum amount of force needed for attacks. It allows for more prolonged combat and less staking depletion.

Using footwork to create movements for counter attacking anything and everything. It has a total of 6 movements meant for speedy offense with minimal effort.

I decided to focus on mastering the first movement which is meant for footwork. I grabbed my sword and a puppet to help me practice counterattacks with quick footwork.

I moved around the puppet dodging and striking back with as minimal force as I could. I ended up over exerting and tired out after two hours. Panting heavily I grabbed a water from my ring and drank heavily.

I rested for a while before continuing to practice and then resting once I got tired. Repeating this I spent the entire day training before I finally left.

As I left the room I bumped into Selene who was also coming out from a training room.

I stared at her as her jade eyes locked onto mine before she said something.

"How long have you been here?" Staring at at my watch which read {11:55} I answered "ever since I left."

She didn't seem shocked though before she suddenly asked me this.

"Do you wanna be friends with me?"
