Chapter 4a - First Fight.

A man approached us when we opened the doors, he had a short beard and brown hair, he wore a thin sword on the left side and an empty scabbard on his back, he was wearing a blue tunic with green lines and leather pants apparently tinged with coffee.

- Ooh Lily, will you finally change class? Being a warrior is the best there is- he said to vivy while smiling.

- Good morning Farlan - Vivy answered dryly. - and no thanks, I have a lot of magic power to lower myself to be a warrior, this is a job for savages and for people without magic talent, I come cuz' of him, I bring the Yusha to choose his weapon and ... so that you can train before sending him to kill beasts- replied pointing to me.

-hou ~ so the hero has arrived, well… you look weak- he said scanning me.

By saying the word hero something inside me made connection. 'Yusha ... Yusha ... of course. It meant hero it was from a rpg game. It was a really old game and that's why I didn't remember it', instantly a window appeared in front of me with the following:

'According to certain events the title of Yusha has been assigned. Do you want to use YES / NO

'Yusha Title: Adds training benefit and improves weapon skill learning' Training x2

I was very surprised, a x2 profit was a large buff, but what took my attention was how I got the title. Just by identifying the name I had gained a benefit, I have to remember the new words to see if I get new things.

I push the YES button and another message appeared.

'Un-equip previous title' rookie hero '?'

Buff: atk +4, def +4.

I pressed again yes.

A status window popped up with my data and the new title, but before I could check it I was hit with the handle of a sword in the face.

- Hey rookie!, stop being in the clouds, you did not hear absolutely anything we told you, look the two wizards are already leaving- he said angrily.

In the distance I saw Vivy and Sandar walking back to the castle.

- Listen rookie, I know you are the hero and stuff, I wouldn't help you but this is a request from my daughter Sandar, keep that in mind and do not hinder our training - after saying this he began to walk towards the recruits.

-Woah!, wait a second, Sandar is a girl?, and is your daughter?-

- Any problem? She is my pride, and don't even think about approaching her, you are trash, they are all trash. -

- None sir - I replied

- You better be telling the truth rookie, let's stop talking about it, follow me rookie -

I followed him until he was in front of the other students, when Farlan took the lead they were all lined up and facing the front.

-Listen rubbish! This is the hero who will save the world from the great fall, I hope you get along well and… "Don't bruise him too much", he will begin from scratch in this place and I hope that in one week he and you guys would graduate out of this pigsty.-

-Let's have something to teach the king and the filthy beasts what attack our lands - As he said everything, the 50 or so hadn't move, they remained in place and facing Farlan, nobody spoke or made any comments.

-Understood?-

-YES GENERAL, YES- They shouted in unison

-Then in 50 minutes we start the sparring and the class tournament. - He said as he walked towards a building.

-Rookie! Come with me, time is running out and Dorian you too - He speak to a recruit with black hair and slim complexion, he had short, dark brown hair, his skin was pale, it seemed as if he could pass out at any time, he even looked weaker than me.

The stables were a very large place, easily a football stadium could fit here, speaking of sports, will they have any? It would be great to show them some, and make money from some sales and maybe some board games, or maybe I coul *A blow woke me up* -Again in the clouds rookie- Farlan told me lowering his hand. - Choose one rookie-

I looked up, and saw several weapons hanging on a shelf and others on the wall, I went over and took the longest sword, when I took it with both arms it fell to the ground, it was too heavy for me, I picked it up full of shame and put it back in its place.

The next thing I grabbed was a wide sword, I waved it with one hand and my wrist got hurt, I also left it on the Wall.

At the end there was a thin sword just like the one Farlan had and I take it, It felt light, I swing it the blade folded and with the oscillation it made a sound, I heard a whistle behind me.

- Hou~ so you can produce the "song" with her, choose that one boy- he said smiling.

I realized that he stopped calling me a rookie after taking this weapon.

I smiled, It had no scabbard so I carried it in my hand as I approached him.

-Well boy, Dorian is my best student, your name is Elliot, right? Well, it doesn't matter, you have 20 minutes to move the Samidare, that's what your "sword" is called, and make a cut to Dorian, or you'll be out of today's class tournament- he commented.

-What is the class tournament? - I asked

-There is no time to explain, only that you want and need to be in it. You have 19 minutes left- and with that said he left.

I looked at Dorian and smiling he unsheathed his weapon, it was the sword that had hurt my wrist, I decided to watch him carefully, I have some knowledge of martial arts and self defense, but I have never fought with real swords.

The boy spread his legs and bending his back leg, raised his hand with the sword above his head, and placed the other in front of him.

-So you fight with cuts above, that arm in front is to grab inertia and attack with more speed right? - I commented.

"Farlan style high," he said, apparently correcting me.

-Yes, whatever- Farlan looked proud but I didn't think he would name the technique under his name ...

I placed myself in the only sword guard I knew, I put one foot behind and taking the Samidare in front I hid my back and the other arm.

-Farlan style defense huh?, I suppose you know a little about this then - after he said that he jumped and making a crescent moon direcged the sword to my shoulder.

With fear I could hardly put my weapon to defend myself, I thought I could block it as in the samurai movies, but his sword cut mine in two and the blade sank into me, the pain was instantly present.

I dropped the broken weapon, and rolled to the side, holding my arm, I saw Dorian smiling and I looked at my shoulder to see if it was still there.

It was but a large bruise had formed, and the pain spreaded to the elbow.

-The weapons are worn, I will not cut you but you will be "bruised" - Dorian explained.

-You could have warned thanks- I replied annoyed.

-I'm sorry, it wasn't in bad faith, your guard made me think that you did know- he answered, lowering his head a little.

- Oh ... Well it doesn't matter, I'll take another weapon.-

I went for another weapon and closed a window that I have learned 'level 1 sword technique', at least it says sword and not samidare.

After taking a weapon I said 'identify' and indeed the durability was low, this one was 1/10, I decided to take one with 3/15 and with +2 speed. I could use something to avoid.

I arrived next to Dorian and prepared myself with the same guard, the pain on my shoulder was heavy and my injured knuckles did not help.

-9 minutes left Elly- he commented as he got into position.

"The name is Elliot, Dory," I replied smiling.

-IN GUARD- Dorian shouted and lunged at me with the same movement.
