Conquering The Novel

After finishing my extra course classes, I met Ziona in the special Dorm's shared training ground and proceeded with the sparring session.

We trained, till the sun went down and stopped after we both were fully exhausted.

After completing my training with Ziona, I finally came back to my room, As I was about to wash up, I suddenly heard an alarm sound, It's seems to be the Quest Notification from the system.

After freshening up and eating my dinner, I sat down on my bed and decided to check on the new Quest's content, so I summoned my system screen.

****** SYSTEM NOTIFICATION*******

QUEST:- COMPLETE THE FOLLOWING,

1) SAVE THE DEMON IRETHIEL

TIME LIMIT: 4 DAYS

2) MAKE HER SWEAR ALLEGIANCE TO YOU.

REWARD~ ABLE TO USE ONE OF IRTHIEL'S SKILLS.

MISSION FAILURE~ ???

***************

After checking out the Quests content, I was shocked and bewildered.

Because saving the demon is another thing, and making her swear allegiance is on a whole different level.

No one will swear their loyalty to anyone in such a short amount of time, and if it's a demon, then it's already close to impossible, even if I saved her life.

Demons are quite prideful and they will never work under any demon weaker than them, and they look down upon humans very much as well.

So, asking a demon to swear allegiance to a human? It's just a pipe dream.

After saving her, I just decided to sign a contract of equal terms with her, while giving her great benefits and power that would help her get back to her peak. Of course, I would be using the information from the Novel.

Because that information is not useful for me and is only helpful to a demon.

And signing a contract of equal terms is already a great feat when compared to who the demon I am contracting is,

But the quest reward is too optimistic for me to ignore it.

It will be a huge power boost for me, as being able to use one of the demons' abilities is impossible until I became that demon's pawn or... slave while binding with a slave contract.

So to complete this Quest, I have to change my plans accordingly, ...even if I had to make my hands dirty.

After pondering to myself for some time, I still can't find any ideas on making a demon swear allegiance to me. So I decided to pause for now and texted Aegis to ask about the portions.

She replied as soon as I texted her, which was rather rare for her, as she was always busy watching animes or reading novels or some other works. It became convenient for me to talk with her after knowing her secret.

She texted back, that the portions would be ready in two days, which was rather quick. I think she is pulling all-nighters to complete the potions. However, Aegis was never a work enthusiast.

"...."

After thinking over it, I decided to rest for now and ponder a new plan for the next two days.

***

The next morning, I went to our advisor training ground for my combat training and met with Ziona and Kevin who had already arrived before me.

As soon as Ziona saw me, she greeted me with a huge smile, and Kevin just timidly nodded his head with a wry smile.

I greeted both of them with a nod and stood beside Ziona. As we started conversing about our spar from yesterday, while Kevin was just staring at me before he finally tried to join our conversation,

"Oh, you guys are training together after academy hours?"

Hearing him we both turned our heads toward him and spoke in unison,

"Yes"

After responding to him we continued talking, while Kevin spoke,

"Can I train with you guys too?"

"Sure, we are training in the combined training ground of a special dorm. You're free to join."

Ziona responded to him with a smile on her face, getting Ziona's approval, Kevin's face lit up, and a satisfied smile came on his face.

Seeing Kevin's reaction I shook my head and thought to myself,

'Poor bastard, he dug his own grave.'

As I was thinking to myself, we heard a door opening sound and soon we saw Bianca enter the training ground.

"Good morning" Bianca greeted us.

"Good morning, Instructor Bianca", We greeted her in unison.

"Late as always, huh!" I muttered to myself.

Bianca, who seemed to hear my muttering, spoke after clearing her throat,

"Ahem, Let's not waste any time, go get dressed in your training suit. We don't want any broken bones in our first training class, would we?"

She spoke the last part with an evil grin on her face,

"Gulp" Seeing her grinning, Kevin gulped out loud.

We soon came back after changing into our training suit which has a lot of protective magic cast on it and will save us from any critical injuries.

But that doesn't mean we won't get hurt. As an example, during my first spar with Ziona, she was hurt pretty badly due to my Electric Aura, even after wearing a training suit.

But at least it will keep us alive, right?

I thought to myself while shrugging.

As soon as we arrived, Bianca took us to the Arena which was present in the center of the training ground.

She then stood in one of the corners of the arena, while Ziona, Kevin, and I, stood in the opposite corner.

Bianca beckoned us to attack her,

"All three of you, come at me with all you got."

Hearing her I thought to myself,

'How arrogant of her,'

Shortly after, we took our sword stance and rushed toward her with our swords.

And in the blink of an eye, we were all sent flying in different directions, without even knowing what hit us.

I can't even catch a glimpse of her movements.

"...."

I was dumbstruck by what had just transpired, and I finally realized how stupid and weak I still am.

I got arrogant after beating some bunch of teenagers and couldn't even hold a candle in front of strong opponents.

Even while training with Helena, she kept her movements in control so I could counter her.

If Helena, who is known for her quickness, had used her entire strength, I would have died without even knowing how.

I shook my head and came back to my senses while trying to stand up. Even after wearing a battle suit, my body aches due to that impact.

But soon Ziona and I stood up while Kevin was still gasping for breath.

"That's what I expect from Mika's disciples. If you can't even stand my one attack, I would have been disappointed in you guys."

Honestly, we didn't hear what she was talking about due to our pain. I then turned towards Ziona who was coincidently looking towards me as well,

After our eyes met, we both nodded to each other as if agreeing, then I used my skill of static electricity. My sword was now covered in Electric Aura, while Ziona used her Aura sword as well.

Then we both rushed towards Bianca from different sides and attacked at the same time.

Bianca just stood there while putting her hand on the sword hilt which was still hanging around her waist. She didn't even take her sword out from the sheath and watched us approach her.

When our swords were about to hit her, some force countered our attacks and pushed us back.

But this time I barely saw through it with the help of my skill hawkeye.

It's not like she is not taking her sword out, but she is countering our attacks with her sword at a fast pace and placing her sword back into its sheath.

It all happened in the blink of an eye. Her speed was incapable of being seen with the naked eyes.

Soon Ziona and I rushed toward her and attacked continuously without a break. Even after knowing what she was doing, I didn't have any way to counter her.

After coming back to his senses, Kevin joined us too and we attacked Bianca from all sides. We used every skill and technique up our sleeves, but nothing seemed to work.

With naked eyes, it only appeared that Bianca just stood there without even doing anything, but our attacks were countered as soon as they drew near her.

Time went by and we still couldn't be able to land a single hit on Bianca. In actuality, she didn't even move a single step from where she stood, from the moment our fight started.

It was like a huge insurmountable wall standing in front of us.

After a few moments, we heard a bell ring indicating the end of our training class.

"Let's stop here for today. You guys will be continuing the same training tomorrow as well. And as long as you guys can't land a hit on me, we will be proceeding with the same training process"

After she said that, she left the training ground, while we were still laying down on the floor, with all our strength exhausted.

The difference in our power was...too huge, she didn't go easy on us, as other instructors would do, so as not to get the student's morale down.

After knowing the huge difference in power, I laughed out loud at my powerlessness.

"hahaha haha..."

Ziona and Kevin turned toward me and furrowed their eyebrows as if seeing a madman,

"Now the things will get more interesting," I muttered out loud.

Hearing me, Ziona had a huge smile on her face as if we were thinking about the same thing, while Kevin couldn't even utter a word due to his exhaustion.
