14 Training With Master - Chapter 14

Fraus directly went to the "Dream Sword Art" Palace and entered the inside. As he entered, a man with grey-hair looked at him and then spoke after he came towards himself.

The man had a sword wound on his left cheek and was aged 40 to 50. Fraus was not sure, but the man had a height of 180 cm and looked pretty strong from the outside.

"So you are a new member?"

Fraus nodded and spoke.

"Yes, I am!"

The man with grey hair nodded and shook the hand of the Fraus and spoke.

I am Grayes, one of the sword-teachers here at the "Dream-Sword Art". I will be teaching you and four other students this year. That is, of course, if you haven't left the "Dream-Sword Art".

Fraus nodded and spoke.

"I am Fraus, sir. Nice to meet you."

After the initial meeting, Grayes told Fraus to follow him. After Fraus followed him, they went to a courtyard with sword-dummies, hard rocks, and different kinds of training equipment. Grayes looked at the Fraus and spoke.

"I can see that you are a "Starsign User" at the level of "Candle". What is the sign of yours?"

Fraus smiled and then answered.

I am a "Gemini", but I am not using my "Pathway" ability."

Grayes nodded and took two wooden swords from the basket in the courtyard and gave one of them to "Fraus." Then he spoke.

"Just start attacking."

Fraus nodded and then used a wooden sword to attack the Grayes.

Grayes shook his head, and with a fast-swing he hit the sword Fruas was holding, and the sword in the hand of Fraus dropped on the ground. Grayes then spoke.

"Hold the sword, make it stronger, but be flexible with it."

Fraus gulped and smiled, then took the wooden sword from the ground and attacked again. This time he slashed from the right to the left with a strong grip.

Grayes just took one step back, dodging the sword slash from the Fraus, and took one step forward, holding the right wrist of the Fraus and whispering.

"You are dead, again. This time when attacking, try to watch your opponent's legs."

Fraus took a step back and attacked again, this time with a vertical attack, directly towards the head of Grayes.

Grayes again took one step-back and then tried to make the same move when he held the wrists of the Fraus, but something unexpected happened.

Grayes took a step forward, Fraus already took a step back and slashed from the right to the left again. Grayes gulped and blocked the sword attack with his sword. At that time, he spoke after looking at the eyes of "Fraus".

You are a good candidate for a swordsman. I will teach you the art of the "Dream Sword Technique," and the moves of it.

Frau Frau smiled and spoke.

"Thank you, Master."

Grayes nodded and thought.

"It's strange, he just created a swordplay scheme in just one training; I can tell he doesn't have much sword experience, but if he was physically stronger than me, he would have gotten through my block and killed me."

Grayes just gulped and then, at that moment, the other four students came too. Grayes looked at each of them and spoke.

Now, I will teach all of you to move in the "Dream Sword Art."

After Grayes said his words, all of the four students and Fraus' eyes lighted up with expectation.

Grayes then started talking as he was showing the moves.
