Blood Creed
Chapter 41 - Dual Casting
I went back to the dorm room and was met with Lady Akari at the door. She had a strange look on her face.
"What were you thinking about directly challenging the royal house?" she said
"Eyh. I am sorry my lady, I know I stepped out of line, but she wanted to take what was not hers."
"What do you mean? All I do know is that you took her trophy, that is what she said, I know that father trusted you, however, you stealing someone else is putting that trust to question." She said
"My lady, you must have been misinformed," I said as I told my part of the story, on how all of that happened and how I was tricked into challenging her by that old man.
"So that is the case… she didn't accept the points for the horns and wanted to take your trophy instead… however, what are you going to do with that root? Are you going to exchange it for the school?" she asked
"No, I will be making a concoction of it, I happened to know of a strong potion that can help the body and its main ingredient is that root," I said
"So you know alchemy?" she said
"Just the basics," I said
'I wonder if anyone would believe you saying just the basics, the root of Yggdrasil is used in some of the most potent potions to ever be made.'
"No matter, I don't think that you could defeat that woman alone, I should probably just publicize that she is bullying the weak to get their belongings, this way the heat of this matter will lessen the fact that the challenge had issued, and our house would receive less pressure." She said"
"I am sorry for causing trouble," I said apologetically
"There is no need to apologize, she sought to take what was yours. Father never liked being bullied into submission, in fact, I think he will feel rather pleased that you, as a servant challenged a royal for what was rightfully yours." She said as she waved her had.
"Melinda, can you take the place of Basara tomorrow? I guess he is still inexperienced and will have trouble fighting against a much higher classed person" she said
"I would have loved too, but I looked around and understood that unlike normal challenges where one can ask for another to take part in their challenge, a rite of challenge forces the original two to duke it out without interference. He has to fight…" she said apologetically.
"Don't worry Basara, it is indeed a huge loss if you lose the root. However, the fact that you are able to challenge one of royal lineage is a good opportunity to grow stronger. Try to remain standing as much as you can, that is enough to deal a blow to her in the matches tomorrow." Said Lady Akari
"I will do my best," I said as I retreated back to my room."
'What are the chances of me winning that fight tomorrow?' I asked
'If she uses her full potential I think you would be taken down in an instant.' Said Nocturne
'She is that strong?' I asked
'Her muscles, the Qi around her, even her stage of cultivation is one stage higher than yours.' Said Nocturne.
'The fifth stage?' I said
'Yes, though she is young reaching that stage is praiseworthy. However do remember that you just began cultivating three months ago, where she must have spent much longer training. However, I don't intend on letting you lose that root that easily… remember about dual casting and speed casting?' he said
"Yes."
"Its time to show you how it is done." He said with a laugh.
Then I entered my sea of consciousness where Nocturne was patiently waiting.
