Chapter 229: 229: The Royal teacher of Camelot is a drunkard

"This is the Stairs of Gravity, built by our ancestor Arthur Pendragon." Leah started explaining about the stairs while being proud of it, "A total of two thousand steps. Every step increases your weight by 1% due to the increase in gravitational force. By the time you reach the peak, a fifty kg person will feel the weight of thousand kg."

"So, just for this, we have run for almost a hundred kilometers?" Claire didn't hold back in making a rude comment. "Our team trained at 20g gravity chamber before. What's so special about this?"

She didn't like Leah's outfit and thought it was too bold. Although it was common such training outfits are worn everywhere, in Claire's eyes, this girl was just trying to seduce her boyfriend. It was a mixture of envious towards Leah and insecurity over her relationship that made her act like this.

Even Syllia who had seen her sister from childhood didn't expect she could spout such arrogant words. As for Azzy, it seems like a normal statement. Even he was unimpressed by the stairs cuz the staircase at the Death Clan exerted more pressure.

Meanwhile, Leah frowned as she glared at Claire, "I don't know where you trained but training in 20g gravity chamber and climbing these steps are different. There, your strength, speed, and reflexes will be improved but here, by slowly increasing the gravity, not only you'll get used to every range of gravitational force but you would be able to temper your body.

To tell you simply, the gravity chambers will increase your maximum strength but this one will increase your base strength. There's a difference, Princess Claire."

As the ever-smiling Leah appeared serious, Claire also responded with seriousness, "We came here not to learn basics or increase our base strength. Moreover, you might have forgotten that Rael could even lift a rhino that weighs over 3000 kilos. Considering Rael's current weight is 59, the most his weight will be increased to 1180 kg. A mere thousand kilos will not help him even if he spars in such conditions at the top."

Upon hearing Claire's analysis, Azzy nodded in agreement. He turned his head towards Leah questioningly whether this was all she was offering or if there was something more.

Leah was taken aback at first but controlling her expression, she answered to Azzy, at the same time counterattacking Claire, "Azrael, if you feel the weights aren't enough, we can always add them in the end. Anyway, isn't it better to train in this environment rather than wasting time at Aclein or touring around? Let's not waste the time, discussing useless things. Follow me."

Without giving an opportunity to Claire or Azzy even speak further, she started to climb the stairs. Looking ahead seriously, she mumbled to herself, "I ought to teach this girl some manners, or else, she might think I'm a pushover."

Leah increased her speed.

Azzy observed the steps. While each step's height is barely 1 ft, they were over fifty feet wide, enough for ten-twelve people to freely climb together without any clashes. This is where these stairs win as the one at the bottom of the Violet Pavilion could only afford three to four to climb side by the side.

Azzy stepped on it. The pressure increased a little bit.

He continued to climb at the same pace as Claire. Meanwhile, Syllia was also following them leisurely.

Even though Claire trained at the gravity chamber in the underground secret facility, the training was only for a day. It became very difficult to climb the steps once she crossed the 1000th step where the gravity is 10 times stronger than on the ground.

Her pace became slower. Azzy also intends to climbs with her. So, he stayed with Claire.

Soon, the sun rose from between the mountains. Claire was feeling a lot of pressure in her legs but watching Leah climbed to the top with ease, she gritted her teeth and forced herself to climb the steps.

It was at that moment, Leah returned to them by climbing down the stairs from the top, "you are taking too much time. Hurry up. The Royal Teacher is waiting."

She took a glance at Claire and then, climbed the stairs once again.

"Claire, just use the wings if you don't want to use energy armor." In the end, Syllia advised her sister as she at least doesn't want her sister to be a stubborn fool. "You are also wasting Azrael's time."

"It's alright, Ms. Syllia. There's no meaning if only I get stronger and leave behind Claire." While he meant about taking on the Draco-Galarian, Syllia thought that Azzy was talking about the future with her little sister. Claire felt touched as she thought the same.

When Azzy was thinking about her, how could Claire be selfish? She stopped climbing and closed her eyes. Within a fraction of second, golden wings sprouted from her back while her soul power is being consumed little by little.

Flapping her wings, she flew upward for a few meters. She also found out a little secret about the stairs that Leah didn't tell them. "So, the gravitational force only affects these steps and three meters above it. This is like having an invisible slanted ceiling from top to the bottom."

"Rael, let's just go." As she flew towards the top of the hill, maintaining her distance from the gravity range, Azzy followed her.

It didn't even take a minute to climb the remaining thousand steps and reached the flat ground on the hill where a frail-looking old woman was wobbling left and right. Leah was standing behind her.

Azzy was taken aback by the woman's appearance. With long disheveled hair, wrinkled commoner clothes, and a vase in her hand, she looked like some drunken passerby on the street.

Moreover, he couldn't sense soul power from her too. If not the Reaper's reminder, he would have thought Leah made a prank to fool him in the early morning.

Since Claire didn't have the support of the Reaper, she too wondered what kind of joke Leah is playing at, but then, she realized the drunken woman was standing in a place where the gravity is twenty times that of the gravity on the ground.

Pouring soul energy over her body and forming energy armor, Claire landed beside Azzy. 

"Teacher, they are here." Leah stepped forward a bit and informed the old woman who was in the middle of drinking while closing her eyes.

Her eyes fell on the couple and a wide smile escaped from her, "unique soul energies. Both of them are from the same place where the timeline has been shifted earlier and the emergence of a wild beast took place. And that girl…" 

She then took a glimpse at Syllia and sighed inwardly, "rare but nothing special."

While the old woman is busy in her thoughts, Leah introduced her, "Azrael, this is the Royal Teacher of Camelot, Aurelia Harpis."

"Teacher, this is Azrael. This is Claire Lefeuvre, and she's her elder sister, Syllia Lefeuvre." Unlike earlier, her tone was extremely polite before this drunken old woman.

Sorting her thoughts, Aurelia opened her mouth, "Nishhh thou meeeth you. Wishhout fursher delay, leshh shtarrt the trrraining, rithh now…"

(Nice to meet you. Without further delay, let's start the training, right now.)

"Eh?" Azzy and Claire didn't understand a thing that she said before she suddenly made a move.

After storing away the vase, she stretched her palms forward. Claire and Azzy felt an enormous amount of suction force and flew towards her against their will.
