Phantasia: The Princess Knight

Training From Hell

After breakfast and study session. Alicia found herself standing in a squatting position, her arms outstretched with two metal buckets in each hand conjured with gravity magic, and a small flame before her face. To complete all of this, he had to feed his Magi Sack at the same time.

Sweat flooded Alicia's face. Her golden blonde hair drenched her head. Even his training clothes were soaked in sweat. For the last two hours, he was in the same position. Each time the fire was extinguished in front of his Berlin would make the bucket in his hand heavier. His only thought was that the old man was a demon! He must! This was his second day and he had already been pushed this hard in his training!

Although Alicia cursed Berlin in her mind, she knew this was also very beneficial for her. He did not utter a word of complaint as drops of water fell from his chin one after another. There was already a sizable wet spot near his feet as he continued to hold on.

Berlin was actually very surprised by the little girl's ability to cope. This type of training was only given to his Dragon Knight Squad. They were the elites of the elites in the entire Alastine Kingdom. But here a seven-year-old girl was actually capable of this hellish training. Berlin also watched Alicia's Magicules intake very closely. If he took too much at a time, he would raise the weight of the bucket in his hand. He would do the same if it was too little. This was to give him a good feeling and understanding of how to control his intake of Magicules.

The bucket itself to build Alicia's physical body. The Magic Sack upgrade could only go too far. Alicia still needed to build up her strength to allow the thrust of the Magic Sack to truly show its value. Then there was a small flame floating in front of his face. This was a method to control his mana and magic. If he could control his mana and magic while doing all these things then he would be able to use stronger magic faster as time went on.

Alicia had no idea any of this would happen to her the day before. So he didn't sleep much the night before. He had spent half a night trying his best to cast his first magic. Although he could do it quickly, he was fascinated by the fact that he could actually cast magic that caused him to stay up late!

But now as Alicia stood there undergoing this hellish training, she realized that whatever was interfering with the Magic in the air would soon be known to her Master. So he already knew he could make a small candle flame. As they exited the training ground, even before he could say anything, Berlin said: "Since you learned a little magic last night, we'll add it to your practice this morning!"

Alicia doesn't think that Berlin will make the bucket heavier every time the fire goes out! So he is suffering now. It is difficult to concentrate on many things at once.

"okay! Stop right there. Real nice. The fire was only extinguished six times. Take five minutes to rest and drink water. After that we will have lunch before the swordsmanship practice in the afternoon. The night after dinner you will proceed to feed your Magi Sack for four hours before going to bed." Berlin finished talking and disappeared on the spot.

After lunch, Alicia thought she would get an easier training session, but she was completely wrong. Berlin walked out into the training area and dropped a bundle of metal in front of him. "wear this. They have all been conjured with Gravity magic. After you put it on, I want you to run around the training area and the cottage for the next hour. After that, you'll practice your swing."

Alicia looked down at the ground and realized that the piece of metal was a body burden! His arm that had already killed him and felt like a dead weight could barely lift that burden. Each piece weighed the same as the bucket he held before! "Devil! The monster! Crime King!" Alicia called out to Berlin with all sorts of names in her heart. In his mind now Berlin became the demon king.

Alicia's training continued like this day after day. Every day the burden of goods gets heavier and heavier. Alicia initially thought she would turn into a macho muscular woman but to her surprise, her muscles remained compact.

Like this Alicia kept practicing. A year had passed since the day he arrived in this new world and took over his body now. He now knew how to read and write the language of this world. His mastery of magic and swords was praised daily by Berlin. It was on this day that he got up and walked into the main room of the cottage to find a table laid out with many dishes and the whole place looked festive.

"Master Berlin, what's the show?" Alicia asked as she watched Berlin enter with another plate of food.

"Today my dear disciple, you will go to the deepest part of the forest to search for the things I have hidden. This forest covered most of the land among all the kings in the area. It could be considered a kind of neutral zone that separated the kingdom and was extremely vast. This forest is called the Demon Forest. The reason it is so named is that the further you get to the center, the stronger the demonic beasts as well as the frequency at which you will encounter them will also increase. I happened to accidentally drop an important item in the middle of this forest. The journey there on a non-stop walk will take three months. But you won't be this lucky because of such demonic beasts to attack within the horde! Haha, are you capable of doing it my disciple dear!?"Berlin asked with a big smile on his face.

Alicia rolled her eyes towards the old man who 'Inadvertently' dropped an important item in the middle of one of the most dangerous woods around. "Master Berlin, it seems like I have no choice in this matter!"

"Mmh! You are right, but you have trained well! So I expect a lot of good things from you! Eat before it gets cold. Think of this as your last good meal for a while!"
