50 Chapter 50

In a mansion in Kouh ,in a hidden room that is dedicated for training sounds of metal clashing together could be heard.

In this specific room two females were clashing against each other. One with her infamous spear and the other with two pairs of katanas.

Scáthach living up to her fame skillfully handled her spear trying to pierce a hole into her opponent.

But her opponent Roxanne , dodges all these attempts by a hairs margin and retaliates with her twin swords to which Scáthach blocks with a another identical spear .

Seeing her second spear manifesting Roxanne couldn't help but ask ,

" ehh master I thought this is friendly spar not a death duel for you to summon both of your spears. "

" fufufu my student, why are you so surprised. this is just our usual friendly spar and beside do you really think every time I fight with two spears is when I'm serious. "

" ehh it isn't " asked Roxanne innocently.

" no my dear student if I'm totally serious I'll just use my runes and also use my bloodlust if necessary. " said Scáthach .

" hmm but didn't you always have your bloodlust loose when we were training in the Land of Shadows. " asked Roxanne in doubt.

" hmm oh that's because I don't want any interference from anyone when I'm teaching. But enough talking let's continue our fight "

Saying so she attacked with her two spears.

Roxanne also not be outdone attacked with her swords. Sparks flew due to their weapons colliding.

After a few exchanges both parties suddenly gained their distance form each other. The first to move was Roxanne,

[Death strike ]

Her twin swords began to covered by a black miasma making it pitch black. She then waved both swords in a ark that travelled towards Scáthach.

Scáthach gripping both her spears tightly began to draw runes at a frightening speed.

[Sacred judgment]

The runes glowed in a scared light and blasted a sacred beam towards the incoming attack. Both attacks collided but against everyone's expectation the sacred beam swallowed the death energy and continued to advance towards Roxanne.

Roxanne flicked her sword and a another rune began to materialize in front of her .

[Devour]

The rune just as it was intended devoured every bit of the scared beam .

" impressive you managed to make your own primordial runes. " said Scáthach as she marveled at the Rune which in Norse history did not exist.

" hehe it isn't that difficult if I know the right letters, and teacher you also modified those runes to match your fighting style. " said Roxanne sheepishly.

" brat what I did was just refining the already existing base runes and combining a few to make a new complex Rune. But you , you just created a new rune itself from scratch. " said Scáthach exasperatedly.

Honestly she was quit envious of Roxanne's talent for Runes. When she was first learning Runes she was admittedly not the well talented. But did it make her give up. No she tried even harder, she put more effort than others , she practiced one rune for thousands of times till she got the results she wanted.

But unlike her Roxanne is different. Her talent in primordial rune is a better than average but what makes a part from others is her unique mindset. Like her she prefects everything from the basics. But she also tries to modify them every time she gets. That's why she was able to create more characters in the primordial runes. Her unorthodox thinking that was mainly used for creating new weapons she continue to pile up.

Even the twin katanas are not normal weapons. One is a katana that was enchanted to absorb part of the magic power that blade is reinforced to sharpen it continuously. While would be not so useful in present fights, what if we have daily spars with it. It will continue to absorb the magic power and one day be sharp enough to tear space itself.

The other one is just as ridiculous as the other. The sword is enchanted to absorb a part of every collision it is faced with. With that energy it will make it more indestructible. At first it like a stick that can be broken if it is not handled carefully. But as time went by the sword became so indestructible that even satan class being couldn't scratch it. And it certainly did not help that when you collide with that blade you will almost feel as facing huge wall.

One sword for defense and the other for offense, a genius combination that only a few could do. And what's more she created these blades when she under her tutelage. So now after all those friendly spars these blades may even be able to rival most legendary weapons that are known to history.

After that exchange both of them again clashed with each other. But unlike before where both of them were mainly focusing on defense . They now are on the offensive. Both of them started to get more injuries as each time there weapons collided . But they didn't seem to mind it as they continued.

Well they don't need to worry about it as some runes began to glow from the wall that started to heal these wounds.

This went one for while until a door opened to the training room. From it Luciana came in with a cart full of teacups and sweets.

" Mistress it is time for tea"

" oh didn't realize that much time has passed " said Roxanne with a bit of surprise .

" mistress you were fighting for 10 hours straight. " Luciana deadpanned.

Smiling wryly at her comment Roxanne began to enjoy her time with the cookies Luciana brought. Scáthach also followed up by taking a sip of her tea.

" as delicious as ever Luciana " she complemented.

" thank you for the praise " Luciana said humbly.

" oh right Luciana did we have a new guest in Kouh recently. I felt a teleportation activation but didn't delve deeper into it as I was busy " asked Roxanne suddenly.

" yes mistress, we have found out that the Sirzechs Lucifer has come to Kouh for Open house . Kaguya even stated that she even signed a book for them at her signing " answered Luciana with a bit of distain.

To her Sirzechs might be her brother-in-law but she despises him for his attitude. Sure being kind is a good and all but he is too naïve . Devils never obeyed his orders and what does he do , nothing he does nothing thinking that A civil war will happen. If every faction decided to kill all the devils due to them running around causing Chaos there won't be any people to launch a coup.

He is the perfect cardboard leader. He has so much power but he let others control him. Hell even when his sister was in danger, instead of running here he was arguing with a bunch of old men who has too much pride. So what if your move would be politically disadvantage your title matters little if you have no family.

" Oh this would be interesting, I wonder would I able to fight him " said Scáthach offhandedly.

" hmm I wouldn't do that master, while Sirzechs is a top powerhouse, he is not a warrior who relies on martial art.

But if you really wanted to fight someone I can always introduce you to a group of battle junkies. I'm sure they wouldn't mind the company. " said Roxanne making Scáthach eyes shine.

" Oh who might this group be my dear student " asked Scáthach visibly excited.

" well they are a part of Ophis's little group the Kchaos Brigade . Their team is called Team Vali led by Vali lucifer the white dragon emperor who is also from my clan.

Although their group is weaker than the top powerhouses their potential would greatly make you interested. " said Roxanne with a smile.

Scáthach's smile grew wider like a predator. She then laughed loudly.

" Hahahahahaha you are the best my student, you know me so much. Very well I shall find these brats as soon as Open house is over. "

" of course master we who are similar know each other's feelings the best " said Roxanne with a smile that didn't lose to Scáthach.

Looking at these two Luciana shakes her head sighing ' well at least they are contained '

One might find it hard but when Roxanne was under Scáthach's tutelage she began to change. She started to find the enjoyment in battles. And like the famous warrior said ,

" let's dance to our heart's content "

Instead of battling for survival like what other students of Scáthach did, she began to enjoy the fights. That's why she was the fastest person to end Scáthach's training. She fought to enjoy and when someone enjoys something he does it with full concentration. She began to feel the flow of battles.

That's why she was so feared by the masses. She takes control of the entire battlefield as soon she arrives making her opponents die without knowing how.

That's the mainly reason Roxanne still locks her bloodlines as they seal her overall power. But make no mistake she is deadly even when she is still sealed. As Roxanne could be said to be weapon master, who mastered countless number of weapons. But above all she is a Grandmaster at Sythe and Twin swords.

So even god's are vary of her martial prowess as being a Grandmaster mean that you have reached the panicle of your ability that they can bend the laws of the world.

A sword Grandmaster is said to be able to cut space -time that god's who even were known for their best defense wouldn't take a blow from them. And Scáthach herself is a Grandmaster at the spear that when she aims her spear it always hit its target. She was also know for her Grandmaster mastery over ruins. Which makes her worthy of the title God slayer.

" so um Luci-chan did we have any messages from Gregory " asked Roxanne suddenly.

" um yes , Azazel came here with a woman named Penemue today. They told us that Grigori would gladly assist Shadow Garden in the future. He also said that the peace meeting would be held in Kouh highschool and wondered if we would able to handle the security of the venue. " said Luciana.

" hmmm…"
