Chapter 237: 1

One week passed away in a blink of an eye. In one week, not many changes have happened in Camelot.

Azzy and Claire's training were proceeding as per the norms. Claire was fully accustomed to the 20x gravity. Leah who had already decided on how to behave with Claire did exactly the same. She never went all out against Claire and never sparred to defeat her.

While this boosted Claire's confidence and removed her insecurities, it never removed the feeling of being weak for the princess of Triastal. After all, never once she defeated Leah in the past two weeks despite being going all out. Whatever attack she throws, Leah would calmly deal with it. Azzy was very supportive and kept encouraging her. So, Claire was doing well overall.

Coming to Syllia and Cynthia, while they were talking on a regular basis and even got closer, almost repairing their broken relationship in secret, Celus became unfocused and nervous these days as he kept worried about the possible backlash from Duke Welmir as Cynthia decisively announced to her father that she doesn't her fiancée and isn't interested to become a tool for their Statecraft or royal politics.

It caused a huge uproar among the ministers but seeing how stubborn Cynthia had become, the King was forced to choose his daughter's happiness over the relations with his wife's relatives. Of course, he doesn't know the relationship between Cynthia and Syllia yet. Fearing his wrath, neither Cynthia nor Celus had informed him.

As for Leah, it looked as if she reverted to her old self, at least from Claire's perspective. On multiple occasions, she tried to get closer with Azzy but the latter was still formal with her, indicating that he only intended to work with her, not interested to form any friendship.

On a couple of occasions, she found Azzy was smiling when he was with Claire but at other times, he looked stoic-faced as usual. It led Leah to become jealous of Claire and couldn't help wonder what she lacked that Claire has. She was confident that she was better than her in every way.

She was also incapable to understand why Azzy keep his distance from her and neither could she understand why her master was so interested in Claire's progress. For now, all she can only do is to swallow these negative feelings and focus on the mission.

And today is the 14th and final day of the training. Aurelia, Azzy, Claire, Leah, and Syllia gathered inside the silver granite training field. Celus and Cynthia were nowhere to be seen as they were busy with court affairs.

Leah and Syllia stood on the sidelines, becoming spectators while Claire and Azzy stood before Aurelia to handle the test.

It was the same as before when they first met her. Just attack with anything they have got as long as they don't use recovery cards or skill cards that will recover her soul power. The latter one was purposely added to the rule as the Supreme Realm expert knew Claire possesses the special skill card and is overly dependent on it whenever she sparred with Leah. So, this added rule effectively shut down the Holy Ground.

Leah felt a little bit of happiness inside as this was the skill that troubled her too much in defeating Claire. Little she knows that Claire never intended to use it along with Azzy. Although Azzy never said it directly to her, Claire knew that it will only harm dark users like Azzy unless the difference between their strengths is too huge.

"Okay, get ready. Claire, Azrael, show me how much you have been improved in the past two weeks." Aurelia spoke to them in a serious tone.

However, the first thing Azzy thought is that she was sober today. After training two weeks with her, he understood that whenever this Supreme Realm expert is drunken, she will focus on dodging, and according to Leah, in such a state, her attacks will have less accuracy but stronger. That's why she doesn't attack lower-ranked people in such a state.

And when she's sober, she will not focus on much dodging but more on defending and counterattacking. In such a case, her attacks were damn accurate to the point that unless he takes out the hourglass and controls the time, he couldn't dodge them.

"It's been a while since we teamed up, Rael." Claire looked at him and let out a big smile. She always wanted to fight along with him.

"Yeah," Azzy was also looking forward to seeing how much Claire has improved. After this test, he will decide on whether to keep an eye on her to protect her or trust her and completely focus on eliminating the enemy.

"This test has a time limit of ten minutes." Aurelia then stated while raising five fingers, "The first five minutes, you two will attack and I will defend and the latter five minutes, it will be my turn to attack and you will defend."

As soon as Claire heard those words, something clicked in her mind and she made a suggestion, "With Vajra and Hydra, we have four. How about we go with Arrow on offense and invert T on defense?"

"Arrow? T?" Leah wondered what Claire was talking about. Meanwhile, Azzy thought of it and nodded in agreement.

He summoned the soul card. "Vajra, come out."

*Woof*

The black lightning wolf jumped out of the soul card and landed on the floor. It is its first time in this training field. So, it felt the surroundings were unfamiliar and looked around curiously. For some reason, its attention was grabbed by the two statues at the entrance for a while but as it didn't figure out what's wrong with them, it changed its attention back to its owner.

"Soul skill: Rise of the Undead"

While Claire summoned her sword, Azzy proceed to summon only the four-headed Hydra to assist in the battle.

Strangely, Hydra was more comfortable with the presence of Claire than Vajra. When Azzy realized it, he felt that it was probably because of Protos Energy present in the black wolf. As he still hasn't realized that Claire's attribute is life, it led to him wonder whether light was the natural enemy of Protos Energy, considering the latter was born from the negative matter of the universe.

"I'll be at the tip. Hydra and Vajra in the middle, and you will be at the tail." Claire who naturally took the position of leader quickly formed a strategy and told him. 

"Got it," Azzy agreed to it.

Soon, they changed their positions to stand in a formation of an arrow where Claire, Vajra, and Hydra stand in a triangle position and Azzy stand a bit far behind. It was a five-member formation they prepared to use in the Champions League finals but never got the chance.

As for whether it works against someone like Aurelia or not, Azzy wasn't sure but since his girlfriend intended to use those formations, he decided to go along.

After taking his position, Azzy quickly summoned four dark spears. Unlike a week ago, their numbers are less but they looked quite imposing with their sharp and thin edges on front and rear ends. They look more like doubled-edged giant needles.

Meanwhile, Claire unleashed her soul skill, Descent of Heavenly Guardian. Her sword disappeared while the Holy Aura covered her. Spreading her golden wings, she created twin golden energy swords, each in her hand, "let's get started."
