Afterwards they discussed other stuff. After a few hours the meeting ended.

Back in the present.

"And that is why I will not be able to train you for some times."

"I see. That's unfortunate then." - Asami.

"Good luck at work, Tomio-nii"

"Thank you. So now today's training is over here."

"Yes!"

Chapter 11 : Sword Master Shira Torizawa

Tatsuo was sitting on the ground while leaning against the wall in the training hall. He had a book in his arm which he was reading.

Suddenly Asami called.

"Hey Takkun! What are you reading?"

"Oh Acchan. I'm reading a novel."

"What type of novel?"

"Oh this novel is called 'Death Zone'. It's an action fantasy novel. Where the main character chases for his dream to become the Immortal King." [This novel is actually my friend's. You can read it by just searching Death Zone in the platform]

"Oh. Anyway. You know that our new trainer will come today?"

"Yes. I'm really excited. I want to spar with him."

"Oh. It will be quite a match."

"Do you want to read the novel with me?"

"Yeah sure."

Asami then sat next to Tatsuo. They both then started reading.

After 30 minutes passed, someone entered the hall.

The person was wearing a red flower marked jacket. Hair was white, both eyes were red like a ruby, big brown eyebrows and 3 wound marks on each cheek. The person was average height.

Tatsuo kept on staring at the guy. The person than saw both Tatsuo and Asami.

He then walked to them.

"Hey! Are you Tatsuo and Asami?"

"Yeah. Who are you?" asked Tatsuo

The guy then put his head on his hands behind and introduced himself.

"I'm Shira Torizawa. From now on, I will be your master."

Tatsuo and Asami then tilted their head.

"Huh"? said both at the same time.

"Now. Pick your weapons. Its time to spar." said Shira with a smirk on his face.

The sudden request to spar made Tatsuo and Asami speechless.

Shira then broke the silence.

Shira then pointed at a couple of steel swords laying on the corner of the armory.

"Go and grab those."

Shira then also grabbed a wooden sword in the armory as both Tatsuo and Asami grabbed the steel swords.

"You are gonna fight with a wooden sword?" asked Tatsuo.

"Yes. So now. Get ready."

"But these are real swords. Are you sure?" asked Asami

"Don't worry. You guys are not strong enough to give me a wound with your swords."

Tatsuo and Asami then got angry.

"I hope you don't get hurt!."

"Hehe."

Tatsuo and Asami went into position. Tatsuo and Asami was ready to strike any time.

On the other side Shira was standing with his sword on his wrist. He didn't even unsheathed it. Seeing this both Tatsuo and Asami got more angry.

"You can use magic if you want."

"Alright." -Tatsuo.

Tatsuo then rushed towards Shira.

He then pulled his sword up.

*Slash*

He then quickly swing the sword at Shira. But the next thing he saw was that Shira wasn't there.

"What? Where?"

Asami was standing behind. Shira then suddenly appeared behind Asami.

Asami quickly looked behind.

"He is fast."

Asami then swinged her sword from right to left. But Shira dodged it by ducking.

Then Shira tried to poke his sword's handle on Asami's jaw.

But then suddenly Tatsuo came and swinged his sword to Shira's left arm.

But Shira quickly blocked it. For the recoil Shira was sent flying.

Shira then stopped himself from going back.

"Ho. Not bad."

Tatsuo then also made himself ready for the next attack.

"I guess I can get a bit serious."

As soon as he finished saying that, he vanished from sight.

"What!"

Then the next place he appeared was on front of Tatsuo.

"He is so fast!" - Asami.

He then hit Tatsuo hard with his sword. Luckily Tatsuo was fast enough to block the hit. But Tatsuo still went flying behind.

Tatsuo then hit the wall.

"Argh!"

"Takkun! Are you okay!"

"Its not the time to worry about others." said Shira as soon as he appeared behind Asami.

*Bang*

Shira hit Asami's stomach.

"Gah!"

The fight was over. The winner was Shira Torizawa."

Shira was standing there while Tatsuo and Asami was on the ground panting.

"You guys still have a long way to go. I was holding back quiet a bit" said Shira.

Tatsuo and Asami then looked at Shira with an angry expression. It was clear that they were mad.

Tatsuo then spoke.

"What do you mean holding back? You clearly were using full power."

Shira than hit Tatsuo head with the wooden sword.

"Ow. What was that for?" as Tatsuo said he was rubbing the hit on his head with his hands.

Shira then poked Tatsuo's forehead with his sword and said, "Idiot, If I hadn't hold back. You both would've been knocked out in a blink of an eye. I was just using 2% of my powers."

Asami then jumped and said, "I don't believe you!"

Asami then pointed at the magic ball at the corner of the hall which was used to gauge out the mana capacity of the holder. She then said, "Why don't you show us your mana capacity?"

Shira then nodded.

"Alright. Just so you know, I'm stronger than Ida."

Shira then went to the magic ball with Asami and Tatsuo. He put his hand on the ball and poured mana in the ball. Soon the ball lit up pink with a huge number inside.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

600,000

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"600,000? What!?! Is the ball broken?!?" said Tatsuo while checking the ball left and right.

Asami was standing shocked. "H-How?"

Shira then let out a big smirk. "Told you."

Tatsuo then looked at Shira. "You have to be cheating. What did you do?"

While Tatsuo hadn't noticed and was busy interrogating Shira, Asami noticed that the ball was shining pink.

"Why was the ball shining pink?"

Tatsuo then stopped and looked at Asami. Afterwards he looked at Shira. He saw Shira was sweating. While giving a smile and looking on another direction.

Tatsuo then walked in front of Shira's face. "Hey Hey, Why was your ball pink?"

Shira than looked the other way.

Tatsuo again appeared in front of his face asking the same question.

Soon Shira gave up.

"Ugh. Alright. I forgot that the magic ball show the aura of the person. Yes my aura is pink. And if I hadn't forgot it I shouldn't have gauged my mana."

"Eh? Why?" asked Asami.

"Its because I was born that way."

Tatsuo then recalled something from when Ida gauged he also had a color.

"Now if I recall, Tomio-nii also had a color. If I'm sure, It was white.". [Author : I forgot to add this. :P]

The aura color indicates the person's personality. As Ida is really kind and caring, his aura was white. As Tatsuo and Asami was still a child, both their aura color was white. So if their personality changes, so their aura will.

Asami then said, "Anyway, If you are stronger than Tomio-san, why did you quit being a magician?"

Shira than paused.

Realizing that Asami made a mistake and might've hit a sore spot, she apologized, "I'm sorry if I made you recall something bad."

Shira then said, "No no. Its just that I got bored."

Both Asami and Tatsuo was confused, "Huh?"

"Like I said, I was bored of being a magician. I wanted to try something fun."

"Why were you bored?" said Tatsuo.

"Because it was no fun.. I just don't want to waste my time on boring things"

"Okay I give up." said Tatsuo while bending forward...
