The first training of the Dvergr begins, its place is in the old temple. “Prepare yourself, I won't make it easy.” Dvergr. He who knew how cruel the outside world was, wanted to make his disciples able to survive out there one day.
They had prepared for each other, Meiga started the attack. Several daggers shrouded in lightning elements were thrown at Dvergr. It was a very accurate throw, yet the Dvergr could easily fend it off with his axe. Meiga kept running while continuously showering him with daggers, then Orin started attacking from the front.
“Hoh, Ola became a side attacker to distract huh? while Orin became the main attacker, not a bad tactic.” Orin lunged at Dvergr at high speed but was still easily driven away.
“Cihh, dispels attacks from multiple directions with great ease. Zenin it's your turn!” While complaining, Orin let out a wind of destruction and kept his distance. On the other hand Zenin who was ready with his skill began to activate it.
“Water jail!” while Dvergr was still not out of Orin's skill, Zenin combined the restriction skill to Dvergr to amplify the effect of the attack. At this moment the vortex of wind shredder, had been transformed into a terrifying killing machine.
“After the skills of Orin and Zenin are combined, a whirlpool will be created. Now it's my turn, Lightning Strike, Lightning Field!” If an attack like this might hurt the Dvergr instructor, that's what Meiga thought.
Dvergr smiled comically, it was quite a dangerous attack. If his opponent is not him. “Earth Splitter!” The Dvergr split their combined skill with one swing of his axe. What an incredible power.
“Chain Shackles! Cross Lightning Slash!”
“Free!” a chain appeared and bound several of Dvergr's limbs, followed by a cross lightning strike, but it was smashed easily.
Facing enemies far above them the three of them should not be rash. They kept their distance from the Dvergr and gathered at one point to re-plan the strategy. “Zenin, what is the plan?”
Zenin is the most reliable in managing strategy among them. Looking at the surroundings, it was a valley. “I know, you guys follow my lead. Orin stream his attention, stretch the time until my magic neatness is finished. Then Ola, when I give the cue, tie the teacher up and give your strongest lightning strike.
Copy that!!
“Tornado Gear!” this time Orin had been really serious. He took out his special fighting gear, and started attacking Dvergr. “ini new good, hahaha.” Dvergr seemed to enjoy it.
As Orin and Dvergr exchange attacks, Meiga attempts to deliver a relief attack on Dvergr's blind spot. With a double sword in her hand, and a body that was fed by lightning to speed up her movements, this time Meiga wanted to risk her impromptu attack on a single strike.
Dvergr and Orin engage in a violent clash of weapons, where Meiga sees a crack. He sped up at high speed and attempted to stab Dvergr from behind.
On the other hand, Zenin's magic recital has been completed. A field of water was released towards Dvergr. It made the ground beneath it soften and made Dvergr lose his footing.
“Now Ola!” aba-aba has been given. “Chain Shackles!” On this occasion Meiga as much as possible should resist the movement of the Dvergr using his chain. While tying up the Dvergr, Meiga launched the Double Slash skill which was his current strongest skill, and managed to slash Dvergr's shoulder.
“Wow, that one was pretty dangerous. Unfortunately my equipment is lightning-proof, so no matter how hard you combine forces, it will still be difficult to scratch me. Maybe enough here first, your energy is also almost exhausted, let's rest.”
They went to a nearby waterfall to rest. Coincidentally the fish trap that Dvergr had set up earlier, each of them had managed to trap several fish. They also look for some firewood to cook the fish.
“Entai why this atmosphere looks so familiar?” Meiga unconsciously let out her thoughts. “Ola, you think that too? Things like this make me miss my hometown.” Respond Zenin while making a reminiscing expression.

“Today's incident was really very embarrassing! How can a chosen person be detained only by a croco whose origin is unclear!” One of the elders began to lecture Kouta there.
Kouta frowned, as if wanting to defy the elder's argument, but he paused his intention, and knelt down to apologize. “I'm sorry elder, such a thing, I will promise not to repeat it again.”
“Alright, for this time I will forgive you. Then Kouta, seeing this incident I think it's time for you to do the next stage of the test to raise the seed of the hero. Have you prepared yourself for that?”
I have to become stronger, that's all Kouta thinks about, so if the elder offers the next stage exam, then he will gladly accept it.
The elders led Kouta to the testing ground. It was an empty room filled with magic formations. “Is the test place here elder?”
“That's right, this is the place for the next test. I will send you to the spirit dwelling through this magic formation.” The elders also explained about the spirit dwelling.
Spirit dwellings are the dwelling places of high-level spirits. There were even some spirit ancestors there. For this time the elder sent Kouta to get a guardian spirit who would submit to him. Because without the guardian spirit, the next level to become a true hero would not open up.
“If I've moved there, what's the next step?” the answering elders. Whatever you want to do there, if Kouta manages to get a guardian spirit, that's enough. The time limit is 3 days, if Kouta has not got it, then he will never be able to rise up until anytime.
“I'll ask you one more time. Kouta are you ready for the next test?” It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if he failed then the seed of the hero within him would never rise. But Kouta has high self-confidence, he always believes that if it was him, then it would definitely be possible.
“I'm ready elder.” The elders started to activate the magic formation. “For the sake of this kingdom, you must succeed, Kouta!” A light appeared and became very bright. Along with that, Kouta also disappeared from the room.

It was a boring morning as usual. Hardley who was the teacher from the special class seemed to be entering the class. All the disciples gave their greetings upon his arrival. “Yang not logged in today?” tanyanya complains to his students.
Luna glanced at Kouta's empty chair before finally answering the question. “Kouta is not present sir, this heart.” Hardley smiled hearing that. “I think it's time to tell you, about the real situation of this kingdom, and the reason why Kouta didn't take classes.”
It started 6 years ago, when a remote village in the west was destroyed by evil spirit monsters. The kingdom sent thousands of troops to investigate there, but on the other hand, several kingdoms from the eastern empire began to attack to expand their territory.
Although the Meeden kingdom was still able to defend several cities at that time, the eastern part was eventually defeated. So the last defensive wall of the eastern part of the kingdom is now the defense hall. For now their strength was arguably strong enough to be able to hold back the eastern empire.
In the west, it seems quite alarming. Not only the Meeden kingdom, some neighboring kingdoms, such as EL-NESIA, Glorius, and Lorr were also invaded by those evil spirit monsters. I don't know what makes them dare to come out of the Dark Territory, of course the answer of all that is really needed.
Had the western defenses been breached, the eastern empire would have moved on a massive scale to invade our territory. To prevent that, the academy will provide extra training to increase the number of fighters on our side, this is also the answer to Kouta's current absence. Surely the disciples from the military section would train on their own in their camp.
“So this is the last lesson for you, since most of you are members of the military section, then remember carefully this last lesson from me.” At that time, Hardley said only a few words, and eventually left the classroom.
