《The Aria Chronicles》Your Presence Is Requested
Advertisement
The Practice Saber is about 1.2 meters long and is black in color with a blunt edge, and has simple weight formation carved on it, seeing the formation on the practice saber really surprised me.
I thought the practice weapons would be normal but it has a runic formation carved on it which would automatically make it a Grade 1 Runic Artifact, albeit the lowest stage one.
If this one had the runic formation has then these more than thousand of weapons hanging on the wall also are the Runic Artifacts, how extravagant!
“You specialized in saber?” Carl asked in a surprised voice, most of the vampires prefer swords, to be specific Rapiers or other thin swords there are very few go against the norm like me and Rapiers.
The reason Ruth had chosen this type of saber because it is perfect to deal with any handled weapons. It is long and slim like the most swords and does thrusting and cutting like them but it is also quite heavy which is useful to defend against the heavy weapons like hammers and axes.
Carl also picked up the broad sword from the long rack and came toward me.
“Since you have learned the basics, we will directly start with the combat. I will correct and guide you if you have any problems, ok?” he asked.
“Yes,” I replied.
“I will be using the same power as Middle Knight Level as you,” he said and I nodded again.
“Let’s start, then!” said Carl and his slash toward me, seeing it I didnt back down and swung my saber at him.
I had already considered the possibility of combat last night and I had already decided to use the only 6th of my power.
While fighting he may suspect that I am hiding some of my power but he won’t be able to know how much, maximum he will think I am hiding 40% to 50% of my power, he will not be able to guess that I am only using the only ⅙ of my physical power.
Clank!
Our weapons clashed against each but except for shaking a little, I didnt take a step back which seemed to surprise him a little but that is for moments as he swiftly took back his sword and attacked me again, and this time much faster.
Clank Clank Clank…...
Our weapons started to clash one after another and with each clash, Carl kept increasing speed and power of his attack that sometimes I have a hard time defending against his attacks.

“Your mastery over saber than is a lot better than I had expected, in the estatate there is likely anyone who has such level of weapon mastery at being the same level as you,” said Carl relaxedly as continued to attack me.
I could only smile at his praise as I do not have time to even think, the attacks of him are really fast that it taking my all that just to defend against him.
“If you continue with Saber and worked little hard on your energy refinement, you won’t have a problem becoming an Elite even without the help of your telekinesis,” Carl said.
Becoming an Elite its not that easy, elites are the ones who have no challenge amongst their level and could easily fight and beat those above their level.
For that one has worked very hard and furnish every aspect that could increase their combat. I also plan to become elite but through telekinesis, which I think would be quite easy for me as long as I solidify the 1 floor of Cosmic Tower and work a little hard on my control.
Bap….
It must have been an hour since I am fighting with the carl and for half an hour I am taking quite a beating from the Carl as he kept slapping blade of his sword on me every chance he gets.
These sword slaps did not injure me much but they hit very hard and give biting pain, it is very irritation to get hit in every few seconds and worst thing is every minuits Carl’s the speed of Carl is increased.
Carl is still fighting at the power of Mid Stage Knight but has the senses and experience of the Vicount, elite one that. There will be no change in my condition even if I had used my full power.
Bap Bap Bap….
The next hour I got hit more and more but my defense against his attacks gotten even better, so getting slapped by the sword worth it.
As we fight Carl would use a different type of sword style to confuse me and I would have had to defend against all those moves from different sword styles.
The spar may be very irritating but I am learning a lot as we spar, Carl’s teaching style and my father’s teaching style very different but they all have their plus points.
Bap!
“Its enough for today!” Said Carl as he hit my cheek with the sword one last time before stopping.
We must have sparred for two hour at least, my body had become very sweaty that the clothes I was wearing completly sticking to my body, giving all the idiots quite a view who are looking at me hungrily.

There is a crowd of around a hundred people that are looking at me, I had already noticed them when I was fighting but I was too busy defending against carl to care about them.
I cant do about them despite feeling a little uncomfortable under their hungry gazes, I know the tendency of the crowd no matter how much I glower, shout or yell they will going to look at me with hungry eyes.
Even if Carl yells at them, they will go away but will keep looking from the corner of their eyes, so it is better to let them look as I will be going training here every day.
The sooner I became a common sight the better, this way I and they would be able to practice in peace.
“Isabell you have come in time, we were just finished minuit ago!” Carl said to Isabell who is coming toward us.
Isabel nodded at carl and came at me straight, “Let me help you with this!” Isabell said to me as looked at my drenched state, soon I felt hot air against me and in just a few seconds, all my clothes that wet had been completely dried.
“Thank You!” I said the sweat-filled cloths felt really uncomfortable, with my cloths dried up I feel like me again. “Lilith, I will leave to Isabell then.” said carl as he started walking.
“I will be training you in telekinesis and shooting from today,” said Isabell. I was a little surprised when she mentioned guns but it is not as the guns are main weapons at the battlefield especially in mid and long-range combat.
“Ok!” I said.
“For one to learn the telekinesis three things are absolutely necessary, first strong soul power, second control and third a telekinesis method,” Isabell stated.
Yes, my mother had said the same when she was giving me tips about the telekinesis.
“Strong soul power you have as for the telekinesis method, the only master will ably help you with that.”
“What I can help with is control, I will be teaching you how to control your soul power expertly,” said I Isabell.
Next second eighteen adult palm size knives in the group of two came floating from her Dem purse.
“Today we will start from simple, you take control over these nine knives and copy the movements I make with the nine knives,” said Isabell, I nodded and took control over the nine knives.
“Ok, I will begin now watch and follow closely!” Isabell said and she made the perfect circle using nine knives and started to spin it slowly.
Her circle made of knive perfect and the spinning movement they making is seamless.
“You try now,” said Isabell, I nodded and started to move the knives in the circle. I have more than enough soul power to control the knives and I started to arrange then in the circle.
Slowly circle of knives formed a circle under my command but the circle is not perfect and I had to spend a few minuits perfect but when I started to spin them, the unevenness kept occurring in their movements, they are mess compared to the circle of knives that Isabell is controlling.
“Don’t get irritated, you doing this good within a month after activating your soul power is already very great,” Isabell said and then she started to give me tips about making my movements smooth.
Her tips seemed to work as my movements started to become smooth, though they could not able to reach Isabell’s level of smoothness, they are still very good.
We practiced with a circle before moving triangle and then square, Isabell made me try different sort geometric shapes and tried them moving.
I have to say, the was easiest as it took me least efforts but the further geometric shapes became difficult and when I was trying the square, I lost control over two knives and they fell on the ground, that was really embarrassing.
“All Retainers On The Ground Your Presence Is Requested In The Main Conference Room.”
I was just practicing when suddenly I heard a very loud announcement, it was loud enough that all those present in the estate could hear.
Hearing the announcement, Isabell’s expressions became serious, “Let’s go, Master is requesting our presence.” Isabell said as she put away nine knives in her Dem bag.
“Should I really come?” I asked seeing my level is too low even if I am retainer, “Aren’t you a retainer?” Isabell asked back instead.
“I’ll come,” I said as I put the knives in my Dem bag and started to walk with Isabell toward the Mansion.

The Legend of Rayola the Deathless [Dead]
[This story is Discontinued] Another story based on the lore, which has been expanded and with far more details and hopefully better writing shall be released later on. After about the tenth time she died, Rayola started to think, that maybe she didn't come out quite right, even by supernatural standards. Of course, the pale white skin and hair, plus the blazing orange eyes might have been a clue and it was getting harder and harder to blend in. To top it all off, she has no memory of who she is and there's an incredibly suspiscious, snarky voice in her head making quips about her life choices. Even worse was the inability to sleep. At first, she thought that maybe she was just an overly messed up zombie or even a vampire! But she was proven wrong time and time agian... there were too many inconsistencies and it made her uneasy. The final straw was the issue with her own identity. At first she was okay with being her own brand-new person, but as more and more ghosts of her past started to slowly catch up, she had no choice but to set off on a journey... A journey to discover who she once was, and to find out what had happened to her. It was for no noble cause but merely one for personal salvation. Yet, her actions left behind a legend in her wake.

8 157Sod's Law (Dropped)
This fiction has been dropped, you're more than welcome to read it anyway (there is sort of an ending). But you have been warned... Sod's law is a more extreme version of Murphy's law. While Murphy's law says that anything that can go wrong, will go wrong (eventually), Sod's law requires that it always goes wrong with the worst possible outcome. For example, concepts such as "bad fortune will be tailored to the individual" and "good fortune will occur in spite of the individual's actions" are sometimes given as examples of Sod's law in action. This would broaden Sod's law to a general sense of being "mocked by fate". In these aspects it is similar to some definitions of irony, particularly the irony of fate. - Definitions of Sod's Law on Wikipedia. The protagonist, as many before them, and many who followed, thought they were just entering a VRMMORPG (Virtual Reality Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing-Game). Unbeknownst to them however, was a short paragraph in the Terms & Conditions, that, upon agreement, would actually transport them to a fantasy world, loosely based on the game they thought they were entering. - Something anyone could be forgiven for, no-one reads them after all. In this new world, they discover that people are born with “Traits”, a System recognised, ability, skill, or talent, that they are born with. Sod's Law was not a trait they, or anyone else for that matter, would want. Pure madness follows. Yup, this is about a character transferred to a fantasy game-world with the worst luck imaginable. This is my first fiction so I apologise for any grammar and spelling mistakes that may be made. Hopefully it is readable, and if so please tell me! But if it's not, also tell me, but in a constructive way if at all possible? Due to the nature of the “Trait” the story will be dark in places, with plenty of gore and profanity, hence the tags. There may also be scenes of a sexual nature, but nothing full on – sorry guys but you'll have to go elsewhere for that.
