Chapter 289: 289: Firecast

"Anna, tell me more about this mean weak bubble." said Angus coldly.

Then, Anna begins to tell Angus about some nobles that try to get closer to Jayna. Apparently, after Jayna comes back from the Endless Battlefield dimension, many high nobles try to get close to her with any kind of method.

During the break, they managed to hold something like a small gathering in the Royal Palace. Since a few duke's sons are coming to the gathering, Jayna couldn't deny the invitation.

However, she also couldn't leave Anna alone in the royal palace. In the end, she decides to bring Anna with her. Just as she arrives at the gathering, a few high noblemen already swarm at her.

Furthermore, they also thought of Anna as one of Jayna's maids. In the end, all of them get pummeled by Anna. If it is not because the old butler Darius is nearby to restrict her, there will be a casualty. Hearing the story, Angus finally gets the gist of the problem.

"Anna, next time if you meet those mean weak bubbles, don't hit them." said Angus.

"Ehh.. Why??" asked Anna innocently.

"Burst them until there is nothing left or at least cripple them." said Angus coldly.

"Alright." replied Anna cheerfully.

"Ehhh…" exclaimed the others who also gathered around.

"I will not tolerate anyone who dares to touch my girl." said Angus sternly.

Hearing this, Jayna couldn't help but blush while burying herself in Angus.

"Well, I get it you don't want anyone to approach Jayna. But, Don't you think it will only lead to trouble if you cripple or kill them? Most of them are high nobles, right?." asked Axel.

"Well, if they have a problem, just shove it to me. Besides, they are just kids, not the real high noble. The old folk also wouldn't dare to interfere with this matter unless they want to go to war with seventh-grade combatants." said Angus.

"Angus is right. Although internal strife could weaken our kingdom, they are worthless than Master Jade, a full-fledged seventh-grade combatant. If it becomes worse, I believe his majesty King Leon will choose Angus' side over the others." said Ian.

"Hmm… That quite makes sense. You are unexpectedly smart at this." said Mia.

"Huh?? What do you mean by that? Did you want to fight?" said Ian.

"Alright… Who is scared?" replied Mia.

Then, they both decide to go towards the dorm's backyard to fight while everyone ignores them. After experiencing harsh life inside the Endless Battlefield dimension, all of them begin quite fond of having a spar and fighting to improve themself.

Besides Angus and Jayna, they often fight themself. Even Anna usually joins their fight when she is bored.

The next day, they attend the special class like usual. Even though they are already in second grade, they still need to learn many things such as monsters, science, physics, arithmancy, and basic runes. They also need to learn a few basic spells and skills.

Currently, they have a combat training course. Usually, in this course, their classes will be divided into two. One will learn skills, and the others will learn spells. 

Jayna, Ian, Mia, and Anna will be learning skills and close combat. On the other hand, Angus, Millie, and Axel will learn spells and some basic combat.

After evaluating everyone's ability during the last few months, the teachers decided to increase teamwork and combat sense. Besides Angus, Jayna, and Anna, the others seem to be lacking in a combat sense. 

This shows during the dungeon training when Angus, Jayna, and Anna separate from the others. Without Angus's leadership, their teamwork crumbles, and they do not know what to do. In battle, combat sense is not only about prowess but also decision-making.

Bad decision-making will only lead to loss or death. Currently, besides Angus and Jayna, everyone didn't have too much experience in this decision-making. Therefore, they decide to increase their combat experience.

In the end, the teacher decided to assign a teacher to spar with them. Jayna, who has the most destructive ability, gets assigned with Master Ban, her previous sword teacher. On the other hand, Angus gets assigned to teacher Gustav, his previous homeroom teacher.

As for Anna, none of the teachers could hold her. In the end, she is battling with Ilgor. After returning to the Firuman, Ilgor is tasked to help Angus's father in many matters that require labor. Besides that, Ilgor mostly has a lot of free time on his own.

Moreover, Ilgor also finally reached fourth grade as a combatant during one of his tasks. With his new power and already used to Anna's fighting pattern, Ilgor could easily hold his own against Anna's monstrous strength.

Still, their fight is very destructive since both Anna and Ilgor always use their all during their spar. Anna even used her transformation during the spar. 

While everyone is getting beaten up during the spar with the teacher, Angus and teacher Gustav sit on the ground chatting about elemental mastery.

"So, it means the more we could comprehend in the elemental, the stronger our elemental mastery." said Angus.

"That's not necessarily true. However, in some cases, it could help you master the element. For example, I am quite good at fire and water elemental mastery. However, my water spell will never be as good as my fire spell since I have a fire elemental mastery." said Gustav.

"I see.. So, there are a lot of factors that could make our elemental mastery stronger." said Angus.

"Yes, one of the most huge factors is your elemental affinity. Although having other elemental mastery makes you diverse in the battle, in the end, only your fire elemental will be stronger than others. For now, I recommend you to train your fire elemental." said Gustav.

"Hmm.. I guess that's right. Still, I am already quite good at controlling fire elemental." said Angus.

"Yeah, that's true. In terms of fire elemental mastery, you are almost as good as me or more. Therefore, we will try to control the fire elemental outside your body." said teacher Gustav.

"Outside my body?" asked Angus.

"Yes. Controlling fire elementals comes from inside the body, and controlling fire elementals outside the body is different. Only the one that reached the pinnacle of fire mastery could control fire elemental outside the body easily."

"In the royal academy, there are some records to achieve this kind of skill. This is also one of your father's signature skills. It is called [Firecast]." said Gustav while handing a thick red book to Angus.

"For starters, we will practice with these candles. First, you need to try to make the fire bigger this candle from a certain distance." said Gustav while lighting the candle.

"Is that all??" asked Angus.

"Yeah, although it is simple, it is…" said Gustav.

Before Gustav finishes his sentence, Angus uses [Hellfire] to burn the whole candle.

"Y-You.. did it?? How? It took me years before I could intensify the flame a little bit." asked Gustav.

"Well, if it's only like this. Jayna could do better than me." said Angus.

"Alright, fine. Then, let's go to the next part. Since you could already intensify the fire. Then, the next part is to manipulate the fire. Using this candle, you need at least to change the shape of the fire on the candle." said Gustav while taking out more candles.

"Hmm.. Change shape. Interesting. Let me try it out." said Angus 

As soon as he tries to manipulate the fire on the candle, the fire begins to flicker and burn intensely. Angus tries hard to control it with [Hellfire], but the entire candle is getting burned out.

'Hmm… the fire is immediately burning intensely the moment I try to control it. This is different from only moving it. I need not only control the temperature but also its intensity.' thought Angus.

'Huft.. It seems he is still not capable of doing it. Otherwise, he already could use [Firecast].' thought Gustav.

Then, Angus begins to try to manipulate the shape of the fire. Most of the time, he burned out the candle before he could manipulate the fire. After a few hours, Angus still could not manipulate the fire on the candle.

His failure only irritated him. As a control freak, he hated when he couldn't control something, especially something not alive like fire. Angus kept training and burned out hundreds of candles even after the course ended.

For the first time, he even skipped the side course to keep training this fire manipulation. With more failure, Angus gets more irritated.

"Fuck!! Why don't you follow me!!" shouted Angus while the fire was getting intense in response to his anger.

"Err… I think you need to calm down. [Firecast] is a difficult skill to master. You need at least to calm down." said Gustav from the side.

"Huft… Yes, the teacher is right. I need to calm down first." said Angus as he went back to the dorm to cool his head.

On the way to the dorm, he begins to think about various things about this training. In the end, he decides to read the book that Gustav gave.
