Hagun Academy was relatively lax, especially regarding the lessons for the students, and as long as they were strong enough and gave a result to the academy, no one would stay anything whether you would become a truant.
There were many lessons at the academy, but the lessons were different from a normal high school since it was a mage-school academy.
The lesson was mostly filled with many fighting training such as judo, kendo, and many other martial arts. In addition, there was also magic training, such as controlling one's magic.
While increasing one's magic was impossible, training one's control was still possible.
There was also a normal lesson like a normal high school, but no students were focussed too much on it since when they graduated and became a mage-knight, there was no need for them to use that knowledge.
If there was one lesson that they needed to take, then it was probably a law and a history lesson about Blazer and a mage-knight since as long as they graduated from the Hagun Academy, they would receive their license and become an official mage-knight.
Tsukasa had learned every lesson on the academy easily, so he skipped the class to think about how to become stronger.
'If only Nene-san was here...' Tsukasa let out a sigh, thinking if Nene was here, then she could help her to train him. He knew how useful Nene's ability was for training. Unfortunately, she wasn't here since she had a match on the King of Knights Tournament.
While Tsukasa must admit that Nene was dangerous, he had lost his chastity, so there was no need to worry anymore if Nene really did something unforgivable to him. The only thing that she needed to do was to take responsibility for him, though.
Tsukasa knew that he didn't need to worry about his safety if he married Nene, but as a man, he had his own pride, so he didn't really want to be forced, but if there was nothing that he could do, then he could only accept.
However, that was only if Tsukasa didn't really have a choice, so right now, to have more choices, he needed to train harder.
Tsukasa's routines were simple, and he only did weight training, endurance training, weapon training, and martial arts training. While he used an academy facility to do weight and endurance training, he went to the forest to train his weapon and martial arts training since it was better to keep most of his training a secret, and frankly, it was too noisy.
Tsukasa had promised to accept Kagami Kusakabe's interview, and his popularity exploded once again, which made him speechless. He couldn't even have quiet training, so in the end, he changed his training place from time to time since he wanted to focus.
Right now, Tsukasa was in the middle of the forest around the academy, practicing his swordsmanship. There was no particular reason for him to train with a sword, and it was just everyone was using a sword, and it was also easier to train than other weapons, so he used it.
Tsukasa had also heard that the strongest swordsman in the world was able to slay 300,000 people with her sword alone. If he had more magic, he could do something similar, but his magic wasn't much.
While Tsukasa had mastered many martial arts, his mastery over swords had almost reached a mystical level. It might just be his speculation, but this was how he thought since he hadn't seen anyone in his previous life who had reached the understanding of his swordsmanship.
Tsukasa was alone in the middle of the forest around the Hagun Academy.
Stella didn't come with Tsukasa since she trained her new technique after discussing it with him. Her ability was the concept of manipulation of the dragon, but she had just used her flame ability, which was quite wasteful.
Tsukasa changed the shape of his Device into a katana and held it tightly on his left hand before closing his eyes, and opening them in an instant, slashing the leaf that fell from the tree into many parts.
Tsukasa changed how he drew his sword from his right hand, his left hand, and both hands, cutting one leaf after leaf without any difference from one to another.
Tsukasa was ambidextrous, and he could draw his sword freely with any hands that he wanted to.
Tsukasa didn't have a style on his swordsmanship, and if he had a style, it was a freestyle. As long as it could make him stronger, everything was alright.
'Still, is this my limit?'
Tsukasa let out a sigh, wondering what kind of techniques he should develop since he felt that he had developed all of them.
After a sword, Tsukasa changed into a spear, kusarigama, ax, bow, whip, and many other things. If possible, he wanted to use a firearm, but his Device couldn't transform into one.
Tsukasa stopped his training then observed the black cube in his hand.
The shape of his Device was a black cube, and it could transform into anything, except the one that he mentioned in the past.
'Is there a way to develop it better?'
If possible, Tsukasa wanted his Device to be able to transform into someone else's Device since that way. He could change his abilities based on the weakness of his opponent. However, since it was impossible, it was better to develop his mastery over all the weapons he could train with.
Tsukasa knew that he couldn't delay any longer and thought that after a few matches at the selection of the Severn Stars Sword Art Festival, he should go and use his power to become stronger.
Also, his sense of smell also smelled the crisis that would come because he couldn't control his lower body.
"Tsukasa!"
After Tsukasa ended his training, he heard a familiar voice. He had noticed the familiar presence for a while, but he didn't stop since when he trained.
When Tsukasa trained, he felt the world was in silence, and all of his focus were only the weapon on his hand and his body. However, it didn't mean that he couldn't detect someone else's presence since his sense of smell was sharp.
"Are you done with your training, Stella?" Tsukasa asked.
"Yeah." Stella strode like an excited dog and asked, "How about you?"
"I'm done." Tsukasa nodded and said, "How about we eat somethi-- What are you doing?" He couldn't finish his words since this girl suddenly smelled his body.
"You smell so nice," Stella said as she smelled his body.
"...I'm not sure whether that's right or not." Tsukasa was speechless since he smelled of sweat right now, but this girl said his smell was so nice.
"Say, Tsukasa." Stella looked at Tsukasa shyly.
"Hmm?"
"Let's start our training again," Stella said with a mischievous smile.
"Here?" Tsukasa was speechless.
"Um!" Stella nodded with upturn eyes.
Tsukasa used his sense of smell and nodded. "Okay, but come here. It'll be dangerous if we're found out." He pulled his Stella to the nearby tree, and Stella followed Tsukasa obediently since she was excited about their next training.
Er...
