The Destroyer's

Chapter 2's

"You're good, too, Win."

"Haha, you too, Shin"

They attacked each other using their swords. They look drawn so far, no one dominates either side, really a draw duel.

However, the long time it will be an advantage for Win because he has stronger stamina than Shin, because that's why the longer the duel lasts, Shin gets more exhausted, but not with Win. He doesn't look tired enough. Here obviously Win wins in terms of stamina, but in terms of attacking Shin it is superior.

Sometimes Shin managed to beat Win back, although not long later it could be overcome by Win.

A few moments later.....

The two of them still continued the duel, but Shin seemed to have run out of strength to make an attack, he was in this state only able to withstand the attack launched by Win on him.

Win had already begun to look to exercise complete dominance over Shin. He managed to make Shin only able to defend Win who always launched an attack on Shin. But of course it won't last long.

A while later, Shin had started to feel extremely exhausted, his hand was no longer able to lift the iron sword, whereas Win still seemed to be able to continue this duel in the long run, he said, Win does have a very large stamina, even exceeding the average stamina of adults.

And after that, Shin had to accept his defeat to Win in that long duel.

"You're great too huh, Win," Shin said as he lay on the ground after Win's last attack.

"You too, Shin. Your attack is really hard to fend off," replied Win.

"Well, I did win in terms of attack, but lost in terms of stamina. You have stamina and endurance, yes, Win."

"That's how."

They considered the duel as a training and demonstration of the abilities of each of them. Because they felt it was time, they went from there to go do Gift receipts.

***

They also arrived at the village hall, it was where the Gift reception took place, where it had long been used as a place for Gift reception for children in the village. Every year there are dozens of children who go there to get their Gift.

"Good thing is still not crowded, so we can more quickly get the Gift," said Shin.

"Yes, you're right. I thought we were late, haha," Win replied with a relieved laugh.

Win looked at the area there to ascertain if his grandfather was already there or not, but it seems that he has not seen his grandfather there yet, maybe his grandfather will be a bit late.

"It looks like your grandfather hasn't come yet huh, Win," asked Shin.

"Maybe so, I hope my grandfather keeps his promise" Win replied.

The Gift acceptance ceremony hasn't started yet, but it's about to start. There were quite a number of Sage and Royal Knights. Sage is tasked to do Gift Giving to children, while the Royal Knight is tasked to maintain security there and to anticipate things that are not desirable.

***

After a while later, the Gift acceptance ceremony was about to begin, already many village children were present there along with their parents, hoping to boast their parents with the Gift they had. Grandpa Win and his father Shin were also already there to see the two of them, Win and Shin got what Gift.

"Of course SwordMan, I'd like to be a Royal Knight!" reply Win.

"Oh so."

"If you're Shin, what's the Gift?" ask Win.

"Of course it's the same as you, Win! Our goal will be the same, to become a Royal Knight in the future" Shin replied.

Usually the Gift will be in accordance with what is often done by a child, for example if the child likes to practice sword training, then he will most likely have a Gift Swordman, for example, if the child likes to learn magic even though he can not use it well, the child has great potential to have Gift Sage or Mage.

After waiting for quite a while, it was finally Shin's turn to come. Gift acceptance is done alternately between children, so it takes a long time, but it is not a problem for children in the village.

"Hopefully you're lucky, Shin!" win said to Shin.

"Well, sure!"

After that, she headed to a Sage for her Gift acceptance. There are some Sage who do Gift giving to village children. Gift reception is done by putting Sage's hand on the head of a child, then the Sage will recite a mantra, after the spell is read, after the spell is read, in the child's mind will appear the Gift he got and the child's body will be slightly luminous in this process.

"It... Mage and Swordman!?"

Upon seeing his Gift in mind, Shin immediately opened his eyes and was a little surprised by what he got. He did not expect that he would get the Gift he wanted all along, and also he did not expect to get the Gift Mage as well, even though he felt that he was not an expert in the field of magic, he was also not interested in learning it. He always focused on developing one field only, namely sword. In this way, Shin had two Gift, it was extremely rare for a child to have two Gift whose Gift was quite rare. It seemed like Shin was indeed a very talented child.

After completing the Gift, he immediately met Win and informed Win.

"Hey Shin, how is it? Does it match what you want?" Ask Shin.

"You know, this has even exceeded my expectations all along," Shin replied.

"Huh? Meanin?"

"I got two Gifts, a Mage and a Swordman!"

Win was surprised by what he heard from Shin, Win did not expect that Shin would get two Gifts.

"You got the Gift Mage too? How could? Didn't you never learn magic or anything related to it??" asked Win with a surprised expression.

"Okay, I don't know either. I thought I'd only get the Gift Swordman, but I never thought I'd get the Mage either" Shin replied.

"Haha, you're really lucky, Shin!"

"Haha, that's. Hope you're just as lucky Win!"

"Yes, I hope so."

After that Turn Win arrived, Win felt a bit nervous about the Gift he would get later. He even had time to think that he would not get any Gift, but thinking negative like was not a good thing. He also prayed to get the Gift he wanted all this time, namely Swordman or even Swordmaster.
