AUTHOR'S REINCARNATION IN A FANTASY SETTING

Chapter 111 Training Session [4]



I came back to my seat just before the next match started, but I was not alone; I had toasted corn in my hands. I sat on the seat and took a bite; I looked around and saw Anya who was seated a few seats away from me.

Coincidently, she was also looking my way. Our eyes met and I gave her a thumbs up, and I meant it, she'd performed well in the match. She replied with a smile and then turned away.

I then focused my attention on the arena. By the time I arrived, the two students who were going to fight had already come to the grounds.

One was a girl from our class; her name was Nsiria I think. I didn't really know her well, but since she was a student in my class; I knew her basic information and things that were easily available.

The other one was someone I know though, vaguely but I know them. She was Seiren from class A—the one who tried to harass Ellyn and the one I used to execute my plan.

'Now, now, this is getting pretty interesting,' I thought, taking another bite of the corn.

This battle was not in the novel—I mean, yeah, loli_pop only showed the matches of the main characters. I won't blame him for this since I would've done the same.

Who shows the match of a side character? I don't.

Anyway, since this was not in the novel I didn't know what the outcome of this match was going to be. Finally, I could enjoy this training session for a while without getting spoiled.

I excitedly chewed the corn as I stared at the two students who were getting ready to fight.

***

Zero might be enjoying this but for Seiren, this match, no, this whole training session was a pain in the ass. That's because she was just average when it comes to sword arts and stuff—maybe below average.

Yes, she was branded as one of the aggressive girls out of three in the whole of the first-year students but bullying someone was different than fighting in a match.

While bullying, you are the one in control. You don't have to follow some shitty rules or go by limitations set in order to control the violence. Whenever the group of Seiren, Alada, and Wrena bullied a girl; they always cornered her and it was a one vs three.

They had all the freedom in the world they won't and no one was there to stop them even if they made a girl bleed. Yeah, they could be punished if the victim reported this to the academy but if they did that, then more bullying was in stuck for them.

But here, in the training session, she had to follow the fucking rules set by the academy. She can't beat her opponent to death and she was also alone. This was a one-on-one fight; a thing she had not experienced in a long time.

"Sigh, what a pain!" she mumbled as a tired-looking expression formed on her face.

She didn't want to fight if she was allowed to, but the time was not in her favor. The referee soon blew air through his whistle, thus announcing the start of this match.

Her opponent, Nsiria, dashed toward her as soon as the match started. She activated her magiken in the start too, her sword shone in a bright lemon yellow color as she swung her sword down to hit Seiren.

Seiren, in response, simply raised her sword up and went for the defense. Nsiria's sword clashed with hers and to her surprise, she was pushed back and forced to take a few steps back.

A forced vibration ran down the bones of Seiren's arms and followed to her spine. Nsiria had struck with all the force she could, while Seiren had lightly raised her sword in defense.

This caused her whole body to ring with the vibration that was created when the two swords clashed.

Her eyes widened from the shock and she quickly applied some strength in her arms and threw Nsiria back and she herself leapt to the side to gain some time.

She was taken by surprise; this was not what she expected. Right now, she was breathing heavily and all her senses which were dull a moment ago were now all sharp. The world looked a lot clearer to her now.

She had to take this seriously now, after all, she can't allow some girl she doesn't even know the name of, to defeat her like this. It'll be a big setback to her pride.

Hence, she channeled her mana into her sword as she activated her magiken. Her sword shone and emitted a flash, the blade was soon dyed in a color of lavender. She adjusted her body posture and then launched herself toward Nsiria, raising her sword high she swung it down in an instant as soon as she reached close to Nsiria.

This was a good move, she was swift and balanced. To her, this was the end of the game but...

-Clank!

Nsiria attacked in response, swinging her sword upward she blocked Seiren and then threw her off balance with force. Then she dashed toward her again, this time Seiren was aware of her attack though.

As both the girls were in close range, they exchanged a number of blows. The sounds of metal clashing were heard all over the stadium.

[10 MINUTES LATER]

,m "Huff, huff, huff."

"You're good."

"But you aren't," said Seiren as she wiped the sweat off her forehead.

After exchanging a couple of blows with Nsiria, she was pretty tired. This was the first time in her life she had fought for this long.

Nsiria was the same, she was not particularly good in sword arts either and was just managing somehow. The only reason she was in the lead at first was that instead of dosing off in thoughts like Seiren, she was aware of the fight and went for the first surprise attack.

The girls were almost the same when it came to fighting, that's why this match had gone on for this long. Their strengths were evenly matched, now the one to win will be the one whose will is stronger than the other.
