The End of Round One

In the Royal Spectating room, the Kingdom of Scratlom applauded enthusiastically as Freya was declared the winner. “Miss Einar truly is a powerful warrior. To think she would defeat someone who uses the extremely rare shadow magic.”

“Indeed, it is quite surprising.” King Henry of Chemor replied with a discerning gaze. The match just now was astounding to him. According to all his information, Freya Einar should be a third circle mage, having little experience with swordsmanship.

Yet, what he witnessed was nothing short of astounding. A mage had just defeated a fourth circle mage, merely by using swordsmanship. She didn’t even use an Aura, but was able to defeat a shadow mage.

He, who himself was a veteran swordsman, could tell that the female was an extremely talented swordswoman. Her skills definitely surpassed both of his sons. Her speed and strength was certainly comparable to an Aura Knight that had awakened the first stage of Aura.
