Capítulo 86: Sword Training
Tria brought back the sword and walked outside the room with it, and she was shocked to find both Crei and Chukah in the kitchen cooking. Crei was stirring up vegetables, while Chukah was roasting some flavorful boar meat over an open, and the smell invading her nostril was heavenly.
'When did I get so lucky?' she wondered and grinned happily.
Holding on to her sword, she tiptoed her way towards them, and took a seat at the table, drooling over herself.
"Hahaha," Chukah laughed at her.
"All done?" asked Crei before he saw the sword on the table," and what's that you got there?"
Tria smiled and picked the sword again.
"The sword that will slay down Gods," she answered.
Crei stopped what he was doing and walked over to the table to take a closer look at the sword.
"This sword can slay Gods?"
"I think so, I'll have to try it on one to confirm it."
"Hmm," he answered, then reached his hands, however, the sword slid away from his reach.
"Huh?" Tria did not think the sword would have done that," interesting, it looks like I won't have to worry about anyone coveting my sword."
"It would seem so," answered Crei, "well, before we start, food is about ready so let's eat."
Setting the table and laying out the dishes, the three filled up their bellies and headed outside to train.
It was not Tria's first time holding on to a sword or training with one, in her previous life, she had dabbled in many arts. For a long time she was fascinated with sword dances, therefore she knew a few things.
Holding her stance against her first opponent, Chukah, she evened out with him quite fairly, but that was only because they were spiritually connected, she could tell all of his incoming moves.
Crei, her next opponent, was a lot harder to predict. Given his flirty approaches, he had an advantage over her for many rounds. However, Tria learned a lot, Crei is the best person she could learn from right now.
"You are already very skilled, wifey," Crei complimented her.
"I might have a few practices," she answered before blocking one of his moves.
"Good focus."
Tria and Crei continued sparring until late, and with Chukah who had gone off to find out more about entering the Unknown Land, it was just the two of them.
For over three days, they sparred until dawn and repeated the same thing the next day, until Chukah had come back.
"What have you found out?" Tria asked Chukah upon his return.
"Surprisingly, entering the Unknown Land is not patrolled, anyone and everyone can enter, however, it is at one's own risk. I don't think entering is the problem, it's surviving after entering. It seems that bandits ambush anyone who enters in there, as well as slave hunters, kidnapping people and selling them inside the Unknown Land. "
"I'm not too worried about dealing about bandits, I'm going in there to convert anyone, as soon as I deal with the Eye, we're heading home."
"Did you find anything new about the Eye?" asked Crei.
"Other than the fact that they run rampant in there and rules everything. They are many organizations in the Unknown Land, and all of them have submitted themselves to the Eye because they are directly connected to a God. That is one of the reasons people run to find riches and power in there in hope to get acquainted with the Eye, and willingly becoming minions while contributing toward their success...but it's all bogus, no one had ever made it I heard."
"Of course, it's all about the stick and no sign of the carrot...." Tria thought out loud.
"..."
"..."
Neither Chukah nor Crei knew what she was talking about, as they glanced at each other in confusion.
"Haha, I think it's time we head over and see what all the fuss is about," she answered and smiled at them.
