Sword Pratice

"Emilia ... are you sure you want to train with me?" Said my sister, Tilea.

At present, we are both with mom in the backyard. Initially, they told me to take a break for a while, but when I heard my sister Tilea wanted to practice swords with my mother. Somehow I also want to join. I just nodded my head at the question she had just asked.

"Okay, I think we will practice swinging swords. Hopefully, the last incident will not be repeated again," said My sister Tilea with a rigid smile.

The same incident that happened last time?. Maybe is the incident that makes me forget my memory?.

"The same incident will not be repeated, this time I will watch." Said, My mother.

"So now, you act like a responsible mother." Said Tilea.

"That's quite rude of you, my dear daughter. Although is indeed my fault leaving Emilia to you alone." Said, My mother.

"Right... right!! is your fault!! How old am I to you, my age is not even touched the second digit." Said Tilea

"Yet you act like an adult." Said, my mother glaring at my sister, Tilea.

"And who's fault is that!!..."

the both then glared at each other. It may be my imagination, but I am sure I saw electric current generated between their eyes.

"Um..." I then make a noise to get their attention.

Ah right... Sorry, Emilia. Anyway, choose the wooden sword you like over there," my mother said pointing towards the sword's storage area.

I ran into the place mother pointed. I did not immediately choose a sword. I look around first and see many different types of swords first. In the end, I saw a sword that caught my attention.

"Am, Emilia? ... Are you sure choosing the sword?" My mother said.

My sister also looks worried about my choice. But I like this type of sword compared to other swords. I just nodded my head to answer my mother's question.

"Are you sure? The greatsword is very heavy. Can you handle it?" My mother said.

"I can handle it!!" I said confidently.

I then swung my wooden greatsword. Yeah, there seems to be no problem. I swung it a few more times. Yeah, this is a sword that really suits me.

"Wow.. you really can handle it easily...!!" My mother said looking surprised.

We then practiced swinging the sword for a few minutes. Then mother told me and Tilea to run around the mansion for five laps. But in the first lap, I can't even continue anymore. My mother told me to rest, while Tilea, my sister continue to run around the mansion. While Tilea is running, my mother taught me some sword techniques and the importance of closing gaps in the defense. Sometimes she can't explain it in words, so she puts it into practice straight away. A few minutes later, Tilea finished running and walked towards me and my mother. My mother told Tilea to take a break for a while. After a while, mother and Tilea do mock battles with each other. Mother told me to watch their fight carefully to learn.

Their fight is so fierce, I could feel how fast they swung their swords just from the wind their sword generated. But what I saw is a slow-motion, like they weren't even serious about fighting and just playing around. But I know this is just from my perspective. I also noticed the colorful light around them as they fought slowly entered their bodies. Then a faint gray light came out. I don't know what that light is, but I can feel that it is very important in this battle. In the midst of the battle, Tilea's sword then gave off a bluish glow. The colorful light surrounding the sword kept its distance from the sword, and a lot of the colorful light entered Tilea's body. I am really amazed by the blue light from Tilea's sword. The battle then became even fiercer. But only moments later, mother won the fight. I then ran towards the two of them.

"Mother! may I also fight with you??" I said.

I am really excited when seeing their fight. I also want to try it!!.

"Eh Emilia??, it's still too early," My mother said.

"Please!!..." I said while hugging my mother.

"Ugh... well, just once... I'll limit myself too.." My mother said.

"Yay!!.." I then jump around celebrating.

"Eh, mom... are you sure?" Said Tiela, who looked worried.

My mother is just silent and did not answer Sis Tilea's question. From the expression on mother's face, it seemed that there was a great battle going on in her mind. But in the end, the winner is.

"Yes, I'm sure," my mother said.

My mother and I then stood facing each other with some distance between us. My mother holds a small wooden sword. If I'm not mistaken it's called a rapier??. Meanwhile, I wielded a greatsword that almost exceeds my height. The first to make a move is me. I ran towards my mother as fast as I could. Then I swung this wooden greatsword from the top of my head down. My mother managed to dodge my attack, but it doesn't look like she's going to attack at all. I swung my sword many times. My mother easily parry it with her rapier and even dodged a few of my attacks. I felt a little annoyed about it, then suddenly I see the whole world slow down. All the colorful light that was in front of my eyes comes closer to me. My greatsword gave off a bright golden light. But even though everything is slowing down, I am also very slow myself. It seems that it was only my perspective perceive the world slow. My mother and My sister seems very surprised to see the light in my sword.

I then took advantage of this perceptive sight, then pretended to attack. As mother jumped to the right to dodge, I immediately turned my attack in the direction where she jumps to. Instantly the world then returned to its original speed. My attack almost hit mother, but she blocked it with her rapier at the last moment. Her rapier then split in two. After a while, my vision became dim and blurry. it seemed like I was about to lose consciousness.
