Five days passed since Erik's training session with Amber.
Yet that wasn't the last training session he had. Erik trained bordering on the obsession and sparred multiple times with Floyd, Gwen, and Amber. Of course, he never won against them, but he learned a great deal about how a fighter should use his weapons during a battle. Though, while Floyd and Amber went easy on him, Gwen didn't.
He improved a lot, and that was mostly thanks to Amber and her superb teaching skills. Even Gwen complimented him, and that was not easy by any means, and Professor McAllister gave him a lot of compliments for his focus.
Though Erik wasn't certain about him being ready for the Red Palace, his confidence had grown enough to at least embrace the challenge. Gone were his earlier doubts about underperforming in the tournament.
I revised this chapter, introducing some differences. For instance, Erik acquired a neural link during a short time skip, a feature that was not present in the previous version. Additionally, he completed the weekly quest on the 28th and received two quests that were not included in the previous version. I aim to make the system more dynamic, and I hope this aligns with your preferences. I understand that the process of reworking all the chapters will be lengthy, but I will complete it given the time.
