Sacred Arts

"Enough talking now. Start!" Mio said as she sat back in the chair beside Somi and as soon as those words came out of her mouth, the whole place got quiet for a few seconds before clashing sounds erupted that covered the entire area.

Just as everyone expected, Sana was swarmed with dozens of Beast and Monsters combined that began attacking her relentlessly, and that was not even counting Ji-Woo who was always looking for an opportunity to strike her with some basic Sword Skills.

But even though dozens of enemies surrounded Sana, she didn't flinch and let that shake her confidence. Instead, she begins cutting down all of her enemies, and thanks to the Anti-Magic Enhancement on the Sword it made it easier for her as even though the Monster and Beast fire Magic at her, she could easily cut them.

Everyone who saw this was simply astonished again, no matter how many times they saw it, it just seemed magical how Sana was fighting all of them, it made them think how she would fair against a bunch of mages. Her power despite being a Swordswoman was simply too great and she was a great threat against them, not only was her swordsmanship already enough trouble, but her speed and shadow were even more troublesome.

"She… she's quite smart in using her Shadow Element. She knows how to use them properly… though there is still some room for improvement, it is good enough for now. But… she's lacking something, she lacks will." Mio thought to herself as she began to write some stuff on the papers and when she was done with the paper of Sana, she looked at Ji-Woo to do the same.

"Ji-Woo on the other hand… she's pretty decent. But it seems that she is too reliant on her Summons that she doesn't know how to utilize them perfectly. Also, she would be dead right now if she didn't know how to defend herself." Mio said once more as she began writing again and because the two were busy fighting with each other none of them heard what their Teacher was saying about them.

"What do you say about that, little Somi?" Mio asked Somi who was also watching the fight and when she heard Mio's voice in her mind, she looked at her confusedly. Before simply nodding her head she can't just say anything about it as she was still 'blind'.

"Well… I can't really hear you, but I will take that as a yes." Mio chuckled happily and Somi was even more confused at this because there wasn't even anything to be happy with if she had that much criticism about the two students yet she was in such a good mood.

"You don't have to be so confused about why I am so happy, little Somi. I'm actually happy knowing that there is growth in improvements for these two." Mio said as she patted Somi's head gently before continuing to watch and write down some more stuff about the two students who were still fighting.

Sana suddenly felt a presence behind her and she swung her sword backward which made Ji-Woo fly a few meters away, because of the blow she even coughed up a little blood because it was such a powerful attack. If it was a real sword, she would have died from that, but even after being hit by the side, she didn't give up, she used some basic Magic Healing to heal it.

Mages were really free with their abilities because if they were good enough, they could use almost all of the Elements, but of course, there were some limitations them because the only thing that they could really use was the Element that they were born with, and of course, it would be the most dominant out of everything.

Swordsmans on the other hand are still versatile, but they are limited to how they move because they can still use other Weapons because there is that high chance for them to evolve into a much stronger Class, a Legendary Class even that only a few people have achieved in history.

It was the Battle Mage which was at the highest peak of everything because not only did they have complete mastery over any weapons, but they could use Magic just as proficiently as anywhere from a 3rd to even a 1st Tier Magician. That is how strong they are, the only reason that Swordsman Class is looked down on or any Physical Related Class is because it was too hard to achieve this Legendary Class.

Ji-Woo then suddenly closed her eyes and retracted every Beast and Monster that she had summoned which made everyone confused and just as everyone thought that she was going to surrender, a huge Magic Circle appeared on the ground indicating that a huge Monster or Beast was about to pop out.

"Heed my call, ancient one. Arise from your sleep and help me, Elder Serpent!" Ji-Woo yelled as she slammed down her Staff on the ground, but she was still not done yet.

That move of hers already took more than 40% of her Mana just to summon a munch stronger Beast, but when she activated the Magic Circle that she had been drawing all this time while sparring with Sana, it took almost all of her Mana away. Now she was open but only if Sana could get past the Serprent in front of her.

"It seems this is the last… You gave your best, then I shall do my best too. Hiroshima Sacred Sword Art: Dreamless Night Slash!" Sana held her sword tightly as she slashed toward the Elder Serpent in front of her and when Mio saw it, she immediately appeared right in front of Ji-Woo to catch the Sword before it hit her.

"Woah there… that was a close one. If I was any slower you might have seriously injured Ji-Woo you might have even killed her." Mio said in a serious tone as she looked over at Sana who looked as if there was no more power left in her body, there was no question needed that she used all of her powers in that attack.

Before she could even scold Sana for her acts, she had already fainted because of exhaustion. So she simply turned towards Xian'er to say a few words.

"Her last attack… it cuts at a Cellular level, right? Do you know what would have happened if Ji-Woo who can't protect herself got hit by it?" Mio who sounded not impressed asked her in a little cold tone as she was disappointed that Sana was not thinking of what would happen because of her actions.

"Yes…. I'm sorry, Teacher Mio. But this kind of thing happens when Sana gets into this kind of state, it is kind of a rush of adrenaline that makes her a completely different person. She becomes destructive." Xian'er said while she went over to Sana to carry her body.
