28 Começando...

"Soon after, my generals arrived. They were radiant and eager, with smiles on their faces. I called them, along with Drake, and led them to the training area that was in the palace, with the help of the raven king."

Drake was impatient to try magic or fencing alongside Mikael. Nara and Lara seemed calm, but they were curious and anxious, fearing to disappoint their king by not performing well in the training.

They had no confidence in themselves since they were little, and only Mikael made them feel safe. Rafael was confused by this sudden training, but satisfied to know that he could improve and protect his king better. Just like the bright sun that illuminates the day of mortals, Mikael was like the sun illuminating his life.

Lucas was quiet and just happy with the unfolding of events. Uriel was confused about how he could use magic without spells, but what he didn't know was that, thanks to his mana blessing, he didn't need spells or anything, he just depended on his imagination and his will.

The training hall had various refined and powerful weapons on each of the walls, wooden dolls with a magic core that commanded them and moving targets in a certain area to eliminate.

The floor was sandy, with a clear and fluffy sand to prevent serious injuries when falling, and the air had a high concentration of mana. Alfred was waiting for them sitting in a chair, reading a book about "beginner mistakes".

Mikael wondered where Alfred got so much money and luxury to flaunt such wealth, sophistication and technology. Sighing, he turned to his generals and began to give a speech and explain the reason for the training:

"My precious generals, our old empire was weak compared to most kingdoms and we were very barbaric when attacking with our convenient nails, which can stretch and become sharp and hard as blades.

We had no technique or strategy, we just relied on our brute strength and our thirst for blood. This made us vulnerable to more intelligent and skilled enemies, who knew how to use magic and weapons to their advantage.

That's why we were defeated and almost exterminated by human mages and knights. But now we have a new chance to be reborn and reclaim our place in this world. We have me, the progenitor vampire, who has unparalleled power and ancient wisdom. We have you, my loyal and faithful generals, who have unique talents and potentials.

We have Alfred, who has almost infinite knowledge, wealth and impressive technology. And we have the most important thing: time. For our life expectancy is eternal if nothing kills us.

With these resources, we can become much stronger and more versatile than before. We can learn to use magic efficiently and creatively, without relying on rituals. We can learn to use weapons precisely and elegantly, without losing our ferocity or agility.

We can learn to combine magic and weapons harmoniously and devastatingly, without wasting our mana or energy in excess. That's why I invited you to this special training, where Alfred will teach you everything he knows about magic and weapons.

And where you will be able to practice and develop your own skills and styles. I hope you are excited and motivated for this challenge, because I'm sure you will be surprised by the results."

After hearing this inspiring speech, everyone became extremely determined and motivated, with high morale, and began their respective trainings that Alfred passed on to each of them, including Mikael. He would start learning spells.
