Hard Training

Nesa POV on

"Why did the academy tell us to go back to school, didn't they say three days, it's just one day," said Cloe annoyed. He had just planned to sleep for three days but his plan failed after hearing the announcement from the guard.

"Your mind is only sleeping, Cloe," Rex said coldly.

"Yeah, the training maniac," said Cloe, rolling his eyes in annoyance.

"Don't you want to know the reason Rex?" asked Cloe again, he closed his eyes and propped his chin as if in thought.

"Rex?"

He called Rex because there was no answer but Rex was no longer beside him, his eyes wandered, he sighed, he saw Rex approaching Nesa.

"Rex, you are mean to leave me for Nesa," said Cloe pouting while pursing her lips.

Me and Selly looked at Cloe strangely, I saw Rex looked disgusted at Cloe. A plant pinched Cloe's lips, his lips quickly disappeared. Cloe glared at Rex, he looked at Cloe's face innocently. I chuckle that Rex can joke too.

"Never mind, you are like children," Selly shook her head at their behavior.

"Selly he hurt me," Cloe whined for protection.

Selly hit Cloe's head, she looked at Cloe with disdain. Cloe moved his lips even more because he was smacked by Selly.

"Nesa, I..."

Before Cloe could finish his sentence, Rex glared at Cloe's eyes. Cloe canceled his intention, he didn't want his beautiful lips to be pinched again.

"Are you okay Nesa?" Rex asked while looking at me.

I nodded with a smile. Cloe opened his mouth but didn't because he got a glare from Rex, I don't know what he was going to say beforehand.

All bowry, please gather to your respective orders

The guard's voice echoed, Selly waved her hand at me, Cloe pulled Rex's hand but he still looked at me, Cloe rolled his eyes in annoyance, he left Rex.

"I wanted to talk after today's practice," Rex said, his green eyes staring deep into mine.

I nodded, his eyes were very beautiful. Rex immediately turned around and headed for his order. I looked around, I was looking for coach Olaf.

"Nesa here," Olaf waved his hand at me.

I went to him, he opened the door to let me in. The room was empty and there was nothing. Suddenly an uncomfortable aura filled the room, I turned around, I saw coach Olaf had taken the cue.

"Fight with me, bring out your power Nesa," he said.

I took out my wand, I took the cue even though my wand wasn't colored yet but I've learned basic martial arts.

Coach Olaf mumbled something, an ominous aura immediately filled the room. Anxiety started to overtake me, I took a deep breath trying to calm myself down, I rushed forward to attack coach Olaf but my wand turned against me instead. I immediately removed my wand.

I muttered an emerald order spell but nothing happened. I muttered another spell but nothing happened either. Anxiety is growing, my breath is getting tighter but Coach Olaf's attacks don't stop.

"Unleash your power!" coach Olaf shouted. "I won't stop until you get your power,"

I sat up, gasping for air, my vision blurry, I felt coach Olaf's aura of anger overwhelm me. My wand slowly pointed at me and pierced my stomach.

"Put yourself out, I know you can!"

Coach Olaf shouted, the aura he gave off growing stronger. I fell silent with blood starting to seep. Hatred overwhelms me, I remember my dreams, abused, ostracized.

"HA HA HA HA,"

I laughed, I looked at coach Olaf, I felt the urge to kill. Coach Olaf raised his wand, a loud sound starting to echo through the room. My laughter grew louder, I stepped forward to attack coach Olaf. Coach Olaf was surprised to see I wasn't affected at all, he mumbled something, my wand started moving towards me but I didn't feel any pain at all.

Coach Olaf backed away, I caught my wand and looked him in the eye. His body couldn't move, I smiled sarcastically, his wand started to move to attack his master but coach Olaf quickly got over it.

The sound started to stop, the room went black but somehow my eyes caught sight of Olaf's coach. He attacked me, I quickly dodged. I burst out laughing, I launched a counterattack, a sense of murder enveloped me.

My mouth mumbled something, I raised my wand, a black flash started to shoot out and shot forward towards coach Olaf, but he quickly dodged it. I growled, my body started to feel heavy but the killing intent grew stronger in my heart.

The sound started again, this time louder. I quickened my pace, hearing that voice made me want to kill even more, I unleashed a brutal attack, black flashes flashed everywhere, my vision was getting blurry making me unable to focus.

Suddenly my body froze, I saw coach Olaf was in front of me. Suddenly my gaze changed, I saw many people in the room, they looked at me with pity. The look of pity then turned into a look of disgust, whispers began to sound. Pain started to invade my head, just like in my dream. Contempt started to come out of their mouths, they looked at me with hateful eyes. My head hurts more and more, sweat starts to pour out.

"Enough," I muttered under my breath. But their voices grew louder.

"I SAY ENOUGH!"

Their voices disappeared, I sat down, my head hurting even more. They disappeared, I looked around me, only coach Olaf was advancing towards me. He looked at me coldly, I wanted to speak but my voice seemed to be muffled, before long my vision darkened.

Nesa POV off

Meanwhile at the ruby ​​training ground, Cloe was seen catching his breath, his legs enlarged. On the other hand, his opponent Lovi is seen holding his left hand, blood dripping onto the floor. Cloe took the cue, his hair grew and shot forward to attack Lovi. Lovi charged forward, his right hand enlarged and ready to grab Cloe's hair but it quickly disappeared.

Lovi growled, he was fooled by Cloe's movements. His face hardened, his teeth, hands, and hair began to sharpen. Lovi's long hair filled the room, Cloe quickly jumped up. Long hair like Lovi, their hair met and attracted each other. Cloe's hair is cut every time it touches Lovi's spiky hair. Their distance was getting closer, Cloe's hand suddenly extended and hit Lovi's calf. Lovi sat down, his hair lost its way.

Cloe didn't waste this opportunity, he jumped to hit Lovi's face but Lovi's hand reached out and clawed at Cloe's back, he fell. They were both panting.

Cloe attacks again, he aims at his hair, his hair darts towards Lovi, he aims at his already blue legs. Lovi's body immediately shrunk, he immediately ran. Cloe growled, he had to squint his eyes to look for Lovi, but the scratch again felt on his leg, he grimaced.

Cloe tossed his hair blindly but Lovi easily dodged it. Cloe narrowed his eyes, he saw Lovi who ran to dodge his attack, he turned her body into a big one. He lifted her leg, Lovi was surprised his body returned to its original size but he didn't have time to dodge. Cloe's feet stepped on Lovi's feet which were already blue. Lovi screamed in pain.

"That's enough," said Meyta, trainer of the order of rubies.

Cloe shrunk his body, he ran towards Lovi. He sees his leg broken with blood everywhere.

"Are you okay? Sorry I got too excited," Cloe said worriedly.

Lovi just smiled and raised his thumb to show that he was fine. He was taken by medics, as well as Cloe, he had to treat the wound caused by Lovi's scratch.

At the training ground of the sapphire order, Irene flew over to see her missing opponent. Irene growled, she was the laziest to have to fight her own order because that meant she had to fight someone who had the same strength as her.

A gust of wind was felt nearby, she thrust his wand. Blood began to splatter from the sky. Irene descended down, she already knew that her opponent was now flying. She mumbled something, iron started to stick to her hand. She narrowed her eyes, blood was no longer visible in the sky. She strained her ears but there was no suspicious sound, she activated her flight mode but a heavy blow hit her back. She chuckled, apparently her opponent had noticed her earlier.

"Troublesome isn't it to have to fight against one's own order?" asked her opponent, Guda.

Irene chuckled, she stood looking at Guda. She wasn't from the topaz order who could read minds, therefore she had to be able to read the enemy's expressions. Guda disappeared, Irene disappeared, only blood was seen dripping from various places.

Guda revealed himself, he was panting. He mumbled something, iron stuck to his body, now he was like a soldier in armor. The clinking of the sticks sounded, Irene attacked him from behind. He retreated on cue, he fired metal at Irene but was held back by Irene with metal forming a shield.

They attacked each other, the metal morphed into various shapes but nothing hit each other.

"How about we just stop this fight Irene?" said Guda breathlessly.

"After you lost," said Irene. Her body shook violently, her body color changed.

"I didn't expect you to have that power,"

Guda grimaced, the power Irene gave was superpower, a power that made its owner many times stronger. Unfortunately he has not mastered the power.

Irene raised a large rock on the side of the field and immediately attacked Guda. Guda dodged, his hands formed a bow, an iron arrow shot towards Irene but was easily parried by Irene.

Guda activated his disappearance mode, he racked his brains because he knew with physical attacks Irene couldn't be defeated. Guda thought for a moment, he reached into his pocket, a sly smile on his lips.

He looked ahead but Irene disappeared as well, Guda focused his mind, the movement of the wind was felt from beside him, he hit the wind beside him but he was thrown.

"How about we fight fairly, Irene, you also know that disappearing is equally troublesome for us," said Guda.

Irene revealed herself, she looked at Guda suspiciously, she knew Guda was not a person who likes small talk.

"Wouldn't the others also want to see our fight?" said Guda.

"Okay, but don't expect you to win,"

Irene teleported, she appeared in front of Guda and hit her stomach but was blocked by Guda with an iron shield. Guda made a bow, dozens of iron arrows shot fast, Irene easily brushed it off even though a few hit it, but for Irene it didn't matter.

Irene took the gun out of her hand, but she quickly sat up. Her body felt weak, she looked at Guda.

"This time I won Irene." Guda smirked, he raised the tip of the iron arrow.

Irene's eyes narrowed, she chuckled, she knew what liquid was at the tip of the iron arrow, one of the poisonous plants. Her body was blue, foam coming out of his mouth. The trainers panicked seeing Irene's condition, they immediately took her for treatment. Guda felt guilty seeing Irene's condition, but he wanted to win just this once.

Meanwhile at the Emerald Order's training ground, Rex walked over to Shamrock. His eyes glowed green, his face hardened.

"Fight with me," Rex glared at Shamrock.

Shamrock stopped what he was doing, he looked at Rex. He smiled sarcastically, he knew Rex would challenge him because of what happened to Nesa.

"Okay, I won't budge on you."

Shamrock goes to the center of the field, others stop their training, they want to see Rex who is fighting against Shamrock.

Shamrock activated his shield, he didn't want his fight with Rex to hit the others. Rex took the cue, fire burning in his hand, he threw it at Shamrock but easily Shamrock threw water to ward him off.

Rex mumbled something, earthen ramparts started to stand up to protect him. Plants shot forward to attack, Shamrock snapped his fingers, flames shot out and burned the plants that attacked him.

"Attack me, don't just dodge," Rex said angrily.

Shamrock chuckled, he didn't know his protege was impatient. He mumbled something, the water was crashing loudly, the earthen fort that Rex made was destroyed, right in front of Rex the water turned into a whirlpool, Rex immediately jumped, he sat on a plant. He chuckled, this fight he wanted.

Rex stepped forward with the plant he was riding on, he controlled the water beneath him, a whirlpool formed beneath the Shamrock. Rex threw himself into the water, he swam fast and stood in front of Shamcrock, the fire in his hands burning the plant that Shamrock was riding on. Shamrock falls but the water forms a high wave and engulfs Rex.

Rex and Shamrock were nowhere to be seen. The water began to look calm, but the air began to feel cold, the water slowly turned frozen. Vibration seen from right, Shamrock came out and broke the ice. His body seemed to be shivering, he let out fire to crush the ice. Rex accelerated and attacked Shamrock, he summoned the wind, instantly fire blazed everywhere.

Rex mumbled something, a firestorm formed, he snapped his fingers, a firestorm shot toward Shamrock. A wave of water appeared to block Rex's firestorm, but Rex mumbled something, the flames slowly dissipating only the wind left. The water began to swirl in the wind, not long after a tsunami hit Shamrock.

Shamrock swayed, but slowly the sky turned black. Lightning and lightning began to strike Rex, he dodged to dodge the attack. He saw Shamrock still in the water, he quickly accelerated, his hand almost reached Shamrock but a plant appeared and pulled Shamrock up.

Rex fell into the water with a lightning strike, his body convulsed, he sank in the water. The sky was still emitting lightning and thunder, Rex's groans were occasionally heard. Shamrock's face looked eager to see Rex in pain from being struck by lightning.

The water began to look calm, Shamrock stopped his attack. "Let's go Rex, you can't fight me yet,"

He stopped the lightning strike, the plants darting ushered him out. But drops of water started to fall from the sky. Shamrock stopped his crop, he turned around but Rex was nowhere to be seen.

"You shouldn't underestimate me!"

Rex jumped out of the water, his wand slashing at the plant Shamrock was riding on. His body looks charred, with wounds everywhere. Shamrock summons a plant but Rex slashes it again, he summons a storm. Shamrock swirls in it, Rex directs his wind into the water. The water below was split in two.

The sky turned black again, Rex mumbled something. The sky started to rumble, lightning struck Shamrock hard. Shamrock's body convulsed, he summoned a plant but Rex quickly slashed it.

Shamrock is lost in the water. Rex gasped, blood spurting out of his mouth. His eyes looked at the water that looked calm, very calm. Rex felt something unnatural, he slowly headed towards the water.

Prass...! Shamrock's wand came out of the water. Rex dodged, but the stick hit his right hand. Rex was flabbergasted, seeing Shamrock come out of the water charred but unharmed.

"Your attacks are also quite good Rex, you are indeed my protege,"

Shamrock chuckled, his wand starting to glow. The air suddenly feels hot, the sun looks hot, the water suddenly dries up.

Rex's body smoked, he sat up because the hot sun added to the pain from his wound. He summoned water, but it didn't appear at all.

"Aargh,"

Rex screamed, he was in so much pain, he lay on the ground. His mouth called out to plants but nothing happened and neither did the soil.

"Look around you Rex," Shamrock walked over to the dying Rex.

Rex's eyes looked around, withered plants, dry ground. He chuckled, he didn't expect his leader to do this. His mouth mumbled something, the wind started to swirl against Shamrock.

"Do not push yourself,"

Shamrock easily dodged the wind from Rex. The wind began to lose control as Rex's consciousness began to fade. Shamrock's hand went up, fire emerged from his hand and started to burn the dry plants.

Rex gasped, with what remained of his consciousness he controlled the wind to dispel the growing flames, but Shamrock let out more flames. The wind from Rex was unable to dispel Shamrock's growing madness.

"I'll get back to you later," Rex said quietly. His consciousness began to run out, he closed his eyes to see the fire burning faster.

Shamrock stepped out of the room, he stopped the fire that was burning Rex.

"Treat him,"

The guards started entering the field picking up Rex's charred body, whether he was still alive or not.
