Chapter 37: Internal Energy Cultivation Part Two

Cedric had me sit to the side and sit in a comfortable position. He explained to me how to take the magic in the air into my body. The issue I had was that I had no idea what he was talking about at first until I matched the information from the cultivation method the system gave me with his explanation. Only then did I get an understanding and in seconds I was already in a decent state of mind even with all the yelling going on. I could feel a warm force flowing into me that made the pit of my stomach tingle slightly. While in such a state I basically tuned everything else out around me.

"Dad this...." Able looked at Rei stunned. He had never seen anyone pick up taking in magic so easily and quickly.

"She is a genius. She is even circulating the magic in her body this will bring around even better results!" Cedric's glowed with amazement. He patted Able's shoulder and continued: "You have brought us home a good daughter in law. I will not be worried about our Ronstine house in the future."

Able blushed but he thought Cedric's words were correct. He watched Rei for a little while longer before going back to his own training. He did feel a little uneasy though. Mainly because now he would not have any kind of advantage over Rei in a fight anymore. Somewhat lost in thought while sparing he mumbled lightly to himself: "Does this mean I will really not wear the pants in the family after I marry Rei?"

His sparring partner stopped attacking looking at Able with a confused expression only to be socked in the face. "Young Master?"

"Huh? Oh sorry!" Able finally came out of his own little world and realized he had used a little too much force.

It was a few hours later that I finally came out of my cultivation and I felt very refreshed. I could feel an abundance of energy spreading throughout my body. It felt very good. All I know was that I felt much more rested now than I did when I first woke up. "System, why do I feel so refreshed?"

"The thing about cultivating like this is that it makes your body feel very energetic. It is best to do this at night instead of sleeping. It will refresh your mind and make you feel that much better." The system explained. Hearing this I was highly surprised since this would mean I could advance my magic and internal energy by leaps and bounds. 

After thinking for a second I asked: "Can I teach this to Able?"

"Once the cultivation method is in your hands it is up to you what you do with it. But I do not know how good the effects will be for him. This is because this cultivation method was made specifically for you. For Able, it may work and it may not. It could also cause adverse effects to his body." Hearing the system, I frowned. I wished to give something back for all the help that Able has given me but it seems this would not be that something. Letting out a sigh I stood up and looked out on the practice field with a smile. I then turned and looked at Angelina who was watching the practice with much interest. 

I walked over to her and tapped her shoulder which seemed to startle her. "Sorry! I didn't mean to scare you." 

Angelina looked at my face but didn't seem to get angry. She nodded her head and asked: "What do you want?" 

"Come with me. Although you may not want to become a magic knight as I do. It would still be good if you learned how to use a sword a little just in case." Although Angelina was not someone I particularly liked, she was my junior sister after all and my master asked me to look after her. If we could get along that would be great. 

"Why are you being so nice all of a sudden?" Angelina seemed to have put up a defense around herself. Which I guess is normal after what happened last time.

"To be honest we started off on the wrong foot. I had no intention of taking your spot as the senior disciple. But at that time you did start with me all because I am Able's fiancee. You may not like me and to be honest, I am also not too fond of you but we are fellow disciples, and if anything I do not want to see you get hurt. It would make Master sad. He does care about you. So learning some sword techniques is not a bad thing. " I said honestly. I had no reason to hide anything. We may not be on the best of terms but we should at least get along.

Angelina kept staring at me as if I had three heads before standing up and saying: "Alright..." 

Surprisingly she did not try to retort or say anything mean. Maybe this will be our first step as fellow disciples. Even if we do not see eye to eye we can at least live in harmony. We went off to the side and I had her select a wooden sword that was the right weight for her. I then showed her a few stances for her to pick from that she felt most comfortable in. Once she did I helped her adjust her stance which she did not mind me getting close to her and was listening to me diligently. 

"Like this?" Angelina whole took a few swings of the sword looked at me and asked.

"Mmm, your balance is off. Bend your knees a bit more. Yes, like that. Good! Now with one swift motion draw the sword out as fast as possible." I explained the stance for drawing. For a girl, it was a sure fire way to get an attacker who was right up on you.

*Shing!*

"Yay, I did it!" Angelina smiled brightly as the sword drew out from its sheath. Her movements were rough but she did accomplish it after a few tries.

"Yeah not bad for just starting out. Keep practicing this movement over and over and it will eventually look like this." I got into my stance and drew my sword.

*Shiiiing!*

Angelina looked at me in amazement. "Senior sister that was really cool!"

"That is because Rei is naturally cool!" Able came out from the side. He was wiping the sweat from his brow. His shirt's top buttons were unbuttoned showing his chest. It was a scene that would make any girl instantly fall in love with him. I actually wondered if he was doing it on purpose.
