Bab 121: Chapter 120 - Training Arc part 1
Evangeline villa, right before the end of semester exams are begin.
"Blaaar!" Negi was busy dodging the barrage of blades that Shirou aimed at him. Although those swords were not a Noble Phantasm, and just ordinary swords, but the speed of the sword fired to him by Shirou was no joke, making Negi to always dodging making him to use quick moves continuously.
After 1 minute, finally Negi couldn't escape anymore because his legs were already feeling sore from using quick moves too much.
Fortunately, when the sword fired by Shirou is about to hit Negi's body, Shirou immediately make the sword disappear, so Negi body would not hurt.
"I told you many times not to stop your steps, when there are enemies that keep attacking you from a long distance!" Evangeline said. "Why you can't understand such a simple thing!"
"But Master, the attack from Shirou-Nii was too fast and accurate," Negi said. "It's hard to avoid a continous attacks like that, after all my legs are already sore from using the quick move too much."
"It's because you didn't train your body well!" Evangeline said who looked really angry to her student. "Besides, when you use a quick move, you should be using ki instead of magic. If you use magic to do a quick move your feet will tire quickly and your magical energy will run out quickly. Shirou has taught you how to use ki right, why don't you use it!"
"Eh, that's because I reflexively use magic when I do a quick move," Negi's face flushed, he really felt embarrassed. Because he was too accustomed to using magic in battle he forgot that he could also use ki to strengthen his body.
"...."Evangeline did not know what to comment on seeing the stupidity of her student.
"Negi, you have to start learning how to use Ki and magic separately," Shirou who knows that his younger brother is a person who is more skilled on theory rather than practice can only sighing seeing his little brother actions that have not been able to use ki freely, even though he already knows how to use it. "Let me guve you some example how to do it!"
Shirou uses Ki in his right hand and magic on his left. Making Negi feel amazed by what his brother showed.
While Evangeline, who knew how talented Shirou was, did not look surprised at all to see that Shirou could control Ki and magic freely. But what Shirou showed next made Negi and Evangeline's mouths gaping.
Shirou combines magic and Ki in the same way that Takamichi and Asuna did.
"Shirou-Nii isn't that Takamichi's technique," Negi said. "How can you use it!"
"Tha-that's impossible," Evangeline said. "Asuna Kagurazaka can combine Ki and magic easily because she has Magic Cancel, Shirou! How can you use Kankaho!"
"Combining Ki and magic is not that difficult if we know the exact frequency to combining the two types of energy together," Shirou said.
"You're talk like, everyone can do that," Evangeline sighed, what Shirou said was very precise in theory. But to do that required extremely accurate control of Ki and magic, which she even didn't have. "You can do that because you have very accurate control of magic energy and ki. Even I, who have lived for hundreds of years, didn't have such accurate control in magical energy, I wonder how you can do it."
"It takes precise control of magic energy to do a tracing and Projection magic," Shirou said. "If I don't adjust my magical energy properly, then the thing I made using tracing and projection magic will be easy to broke or someties explode like a bomb."
"So because of your tracing, that's why your ability to control energy is so great," said Evangeline. "No wonder."
"Shirou-Nii if I practice the projection magic you taught me to the same level as you, can I also use Kankaho?" Asked Negi.
"Eh, about that," Replied Shirou.
"That's impossible boy, you don't have any talent at all in projection magic it's different from your brother," said Evangeline. "Your brother can use advanced projection magic and very talented at it because he is the user of Denial of Nothingness, after all with the basic elements you have it's impossible for you to learn Shirou tracing magic."
"Ah, I understand," Negi said. "Then how can I use Kankaho like Asuna and Takamichi?"
"You still have trouble in controlling your ki and yet you already want to use Kankaho," Shirou said. "Sharpen up the control use of your Ki to the fullest first, and then you can learn how to use Kankaho."
"But Shirou-Nii controlling Ki is really difficult," Negi said. "To be able to use Ki I need more than 3 months! I don't know how long it will take me to be able to control my Ki!"
"You're too impatient, Negi," Shirou said. "Everything in this world requires a process, so don't be impatient."
"Shirou-Nii-San is right Negi, first you must learn how to use ki correctly and then upgrade your ki reserves," Kotaro suddenly appear in front of Negi and immediately lectured him.
"Kotaro! Why are you here?" Asked Negi.
"I called him here," Evangeline said. "You need an equal opponent to fight with brat, and only that puppy is equal to you in Mahora."
"Please call me by my name," Kotaro said feel angry becauss Eva calling him a puppy.
"Shut up!" Evangeline said. "I'll will call you by whatever I want! Hurry up and fight!"
"Okay!" Negi and Kotaro said.
"Hey Negi, are you in prime condition? You just finish a training what about you take a break first!" Kotaro said.
"You don't have to worry, Kotaro," Negi said. "I've rested enough."
Negi and Kotaro smiled, they both have equal abilities. Plus the two of them are rivals, that's why they are both happy to be able to fight. And without further ado the two of them immediately fought.
Shirou and Evangeline saw the fight between Kotaro and Negi. Both of them were satisfied to see Negi and Kotaro's progress which was clearly getting stronger than when they both competed at Mahora Budokai.
"Evangeline, who do you think will win this practice match?" Asked Shirou.
"They are both equal in terms of physical strength, magic and fighting techniques," Replied Evangeline. "It's just that Kotaro is superior in fighting experience and in Ki control so he has a much greater chance of winning."
"Well, I thought so too," Shirou said. "What Negi lacking right now is his fighting experience and ki control, doing a practice match against Kotaro can be a good experience for Negi."
"Then let's just let them practice sparring," Evangeline said in a very serious tone. "There is something important I want to discuss with you."
"What do you want to talk about, Evangeline?" Asked Shirou.
"Al, tell me that you have a copy of Nagi that you took from his artifact," Replied Evangeline. "When do you want to get Nagi clone from my forbidden scroll that you reproduced using Denial of Nothingness?"
"If my father's copy is already in stable within the forbidden scroll," Shirou said. "By my calculations, it was exactly the day before we all left for Wales thd copy of my father can be took out from the Forbidden scroll."
"Perfect timing," Evangeline saix. "Because we definitely need Nagi's help in Mundus Magicus even if he's just a copy."

The last week before summer vacation started was a tough week for Negi and his students. Especially for baka rangers, every day after school the five girls had to attend additional lessons held by Negi. Assisted by Shirou who teaches thd subjects that not mastered by Negi.
"Yue-san your grades have improved!" Negi said.
"I do study a little bit, though," Yue said. "It's just that I don't have enough motivation to study seriously."
"Kaede-san, Makie-san, Gu Fei-san, and Asuna-san," Shirou saif. "Your grades haven't improved at all, the four of you not doing study at all right?"
"I'm busy practicing for a rhythmic gymnasti competition in the summer vacation," Makie said."That's why I didn't have time to study."
"If I forget to study because it's too busy training my skills as a ninja in the forest every night," Kaede's face flushed she was really embarrassed to show her test scores in front of the man she liked. "I'm sorry Shirou-kun."
"I fell asleep while I was trying to study in my room!" Asuna said. "Seeing a lot of words in the book always makes me sleepy!"
"That was Asuna bad habit aru," Gu Fei said. "But it the same for me reading a thick book and seeing a lot of word makes me bored and sleepy."
"Tomorrow's rhe final exams will be started, but all of you have not improved significantly in your grades," Shirou said. "Because of that, I and Negi will make you study until midnight! So you all have to be ready!"
"Nooooooo!" Shouted the Baka rangers because of the nightmare and torture they will faced that night.
On that day, the five members of the Baka Ranger just understood how scary Shirou was when he was serious about doing something.

When the final exam scores were announced, class 3-a managed to return to first place, thanks to the significant increase in the scores of the five Baka Rangers. But the five of them were traumatized, because Shirou brainwashed them to remember all the study materials for the final exams in just a few hours.
Emiya's residence, dojo.
"So Negi, are you already made up your mind going back to Wales this summer?" Asked Shirou.
"Of course!" Negi answered. "For the sake of finding a clue about father's whereabouts! I have to go to Mundus Magicus."
"But unfortunately according to Evangeline your abilities are still not enough," Shirou said. "I also won't allow you to leave with your meager fighting skills."
"Uuh, I know my ability is still insufficient, compared to Setsuna-san, or Shirou-Nii," Negi said "But why I'm not allowed to go?"
"You only lasted a minute when you fought me," Shirou said.. "And 30 seconds against Evangeline, Chachamaru and Chachazero simultaneously! That's not enough! At least you should be able to endure a minute against the three of them and a minute and a half against me! "
"Uh that means I have to train much harder in Master's villa?" Asked Negi.
"No, you will practice in Evangeline's villa which is much bigger, Rin and Evangeline have modified the villa, so that a day in the outside world equals 6 months inside's the villa," Shirou said. "Plus we don't have to be afraid of getting older, aging would no longer happen in that villa. You will be trained by Kotaro so that you can use your Ki well! Once you reach enough level I will allow you to go to Mundus Magicus! "
Negi could not refute Shirou's words, he could only hope that he would be ready in facing the training hell he was going to do.
