Bab 395: Chapter 395: Rules Of Engagement

I felt like a bit of an idiot training without Sassafras, doing the same stuff over and over again, but I had to admit, by the time he trotted down the stairs to join us again, I was feeling a lot more confident about what I'd learned.

He made Meira and I go through our paces, one at a time, praising my sister while his snarky tone told me he wasn't completely happy with my progress.

Maybe he shouldn't have just left us, then, hmmm?

The moment we set foot outside the training ground I was accosted by another cousin. At least Calanothalmunon was only a Knight of the Fifteenth Plane. Considering I'd spent the afternoon practicing, his timing was unfortunate.

Sassy didn't have a negative thing to say as I swiftly countered the demon's attack and, seeing the weakness in the rigid shielding he held, honed my power into a chisel and hammer, shattering his protections around him.
