Capítulo 1378: -1360- The fulfilling training
Thus, among the student knights of Hagun Academy, apart from Misogi Utakata, everyone else was engrossed in Rozen's training, unable to extricate themselves.
Of course, the inability to extricate themselves didn't mean they were immersed in the training and unwilling to end it; rather, Rozen didn't let the golems stop attacking, making it impossible for them to end even if they wanted to.
Thanks to this, during the first day of the special training, within less than ten minutes, both Kurogane Shizuku and Totokubara Kanata were the first to be hit by the golems, collapsing on the spot from exhaustion and serious injuries.
Following them, the others also fell one by one. Even Arisuin Nagi, who Edelweiss had predicted would last until the end, was surprisingly taken down by the golems, leaving only Ikki, Stella, and Todo Touka standing before losing combat ability.
This made Edelweiss furrow her brows, and she kept observing Arisuin Nagi without saying a word for a long time.
Afterward, Edelweiss asked Rozen to provide her with Arisuin Nagi's personal information.
Thus, Rozen accessed Arisuin Nagi's official records from Hagun Academy for Edelweiss.
...

Profile: A first-year student, an orphan with foreign blood, possessing the ability to manipulate shadows. Rather than direct combat, he excels in stealth, restraint, disruption, and surprise attacks. Despite his low stats, he has an impressive record, earning a place as a representative for the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival, and is a promising rising star.
...
This is the official record left by Arisuin Nagi at Hagun Academy.
In terms of Blazer rank and stats, Arisuin Nagi is the weakest among the representative contestants, except for Ikki. However, he undeniably has a record of achievements and was previously recognized by Edelweiss, yet he surprisingly did not last until the end.
An ordinary person might think they had misjudged, believing that Arisuin Nagi might not be as capable as they thought.
But Edelweiss seemed to understand something.
"I see, so that's how it is."
After leaving these words, Edelweiss no longer paid attention to Arisuin Nagi.
Seeing this, Rozen also said nothing, only smiling wryly and remaining silent.
Afterward, the two of them stopped concerning themselves with Arisuin Nagi, first healing the battered students, and once they recovered, they continued the training, repeating the process without pause.
It wasn't until noon that Rozen withdrew the golems but didn't remove the runes from the students, letting them continue their lives in this state.
"These runes will only be removed after this training camp is over. Until then, don't expect any rest."
Rozen told them this, making everyone groan in despair.
However, for the sake of getting stronger, they gritted their teeth and endured, preparing themselves mentally for even restless sleep.
But what they didn't know was that the truly brutal training was just about to begin.
After all...
"In the afternoon, it's my turn. I will properly test the results of your special training."
Edelweiss said this, making everyone finally realize that this training camp would require them to risk their lives.
The reason was simple: Edelweiss's method of testing results had only one way.
Combat.
"I will personally be your opponent. You will all attack me together. If you can land a single hit on me, you pass and can rest immediately."
Edelweiss's declaration made many people hold their breath.
What did this mean?
It meant they had to face Edelweiss head-on in battle.
They had to fight the world's strongest swordsman, the Valkyrie who could annihilate an army of 300,000 single-handedly.
Edelweiss, as if declaring that she wouldn't hold back, exuded a sword aura far stronger than the previous day.
What followed was a merciless thrashing.
Eight student knights attacked Edelweiss with all their might, but they couldn't make her move a single step. Most couldn't even get close to her, their faces, arms, and legs slashed by her seemingly tangible sword aura.
Only Ikki, Stella, and Todo Touka could withstand Edelweiss's sword aura and get close to her. But they still couldn't make her move an inch, all being cut down by the silent white blade.
Even Ikki and Stella, who risked everything, using Ittou Shura and Dragon Spirit, were effortlessly cut down by Edelweiss.
This was partly due to the rune restrictions, but mainly because the gap in strength was too vast.
Therefore, Edelweiss didn't even take it seriously.
However, she wasn't just thrashing them.
"Your attacks are too sloppy. When attacking, you must not only charge with all your might but also align your energy, spirit, and mind to deliver a strike without hesitation, unaffected by the sword aura."
"Don't waste unnecessary energy on dodging and defending. Focus your strength on one thing unless necessary. Expand your vision, attack with all your might when the enemy can't counterattack, and find weaknesses when they are only defending. That way, you can improve efficiency rather than blindly attacking."
"Don't breathe while moving; it will relax your body. Breathe when you don't need to move and make it instinctual."
"Don't just stare at the enemy. Pay attention to your surroundings, but don't lose sight of the enemy. You rely too much on your senses. Cultivate battle intuition, use your aura to lock onto the enemy, and use your instincts to grasp the surroundings."
"Good, just like that."
During the battle, Edelweiss kept giving one suggestion after another, providing the students with invaluable experience and guidance.
If Rozen was honing their external conditions, then Edelweiss was refining their internal conditions.
The dual approach, promoting mutual progress, was the best training for them.
Thus, the days of training passed by one after another.
Each day, they became more accustomed to the burden of the runes, gradually displaying proper combat abilities.
But Rozen and Edelweiss didn't relent. Rozen added more golems each day, and Edelweiss increased her strength in the combat tests, keeping the student knights under constant high-pressure training without a moment of slack.
And Rozen continued his research on the power of "Miracle," making the days extremely fulfilling.
