Volume 5 Chapter 78: Full Potential

"Princess," Faelyn waited by the gate.

"Mmhmm," Alfia smiled. Alfia's heart was much lighter than the last time. Although her irritation for Iston had disappeared, something else was on her mind. Dammit, this guy is such a brat! Every time she thought of Keith, she wanted to smack him.

"Princess, you should be more wary," Faelyn sighed.

"It's Keith. I don't need to worry so much." Alfia shook her head. This guy was harmless.

"..." That's not what I meant. Faelyn shook her head. When the two entered their island,

"Licht? What's the matter?" Alfia saw Licht standing outside of her room. His expression was off as if he was worried about something.

"Alfia, father is coming."

"What?!" Alfia's eyes widened when she heard that. She turned to Faelyn, and the girl was the same!

...

"Good morning, Keith." When Keith headed to the backyard, he spotted Herrick working out again. However, it was different from the other times. Instead of using a long sword, he practiced with a heavy sword.

"Not going to take care of your plant?"

"Master Fira and the two are watching it for me. I have it in my sight as well." Herrick had placed it in eyesight. Even when he swung his sword, he could see it.

"I see. And you're using a heavy sword now?"

"Mmhmm. It's much better than using a long sword. I could use more of my power with it." A heavy sword and a regular sword were different. A regular sword couldn't produce the same force as a heavy one.

"Any heavy weapon would be more suitable for you." Keith smiled. Herrick could use his strength to the fullest.

Opening! Herrick slammed his foot on the ground and slashed at Keith!

"!" Keith quickly raised his sword, yet that was not enough! The sword took the brunt of the attack, slashed in two. What was more, Keith was sent flying, slamming into a tree!

"Keith!" Fira and Herrick were stunned as they quickly headed over to him.

"Keith, I-"

"It's fine. I can take a hit," Keith laughed as he got up from the ground, "See what I mean?"

"?"

"What you lacked wasn't strength."

"!" Herrick looked down at his hand. What he lacked wasn't strength?

"You just needed to focus more. Your movements were way too erratic and wasted strength." Herrick wasted around 30. No, maybe 50% of his strength because he moved like a wild animal.

"If you concentrate and think about how you move, you could use your strength to the fullest potential."

"..." Herrick looked down, "Is that why you made me care for little Herc?"

"Who knows," Keith shrugged.

"Just take the win," Herrick wanted to hit this person right now.

"Haha,"

"Can we spar more?" Herrick asked. He needed to get used to it if he wanted to change,

"Sure," Keith brought out another sword.
