Capítulo 181: 179: The younger and the older

She ignored the way Venus clung to her arm as she scouted the source of that clashing noise but Maria did not slow down. And finally, she entered a clearing where two figures seemed to be practicing their sword-play.

Maria did not have much experience in sword-wielding since it had never been her forte. But she did have formal training in weapon use and could recognize a training stance from a mile away.

The pair seemed to be training and weirdly enough, it looked as if the younger boy was the one who was teaching the elder how to wield the blade. Though ‘younger’ and ‘older’ was stretching the ages a bit. The kids looked to be fifteen and eleven from what Maria could observe.

“Awww, how cute. They are playing around as knights. I think I can take them in if they want to be royal guards” Venus commented in that overly-sweet voice adults often did when they found the children to be amusing.
