It was early in the morning. The birds were waking up, the sun was yawning over the horizon, and most of the staff was preparing themselves for a new day at the Wilhelm Estate. A certain gem stone magic user however was already dressed in her training garbs consisting of a opal blue sleeveless tight shirt, compact onyx black shorts, and bandages on her hands and feet. Now she was staring in the mirror preparing herself for another day of improvement. See, she had developed a couple new spells after taking down a certain magical hat but there was one thing that bothered her. That slime she faced, it was very powerful. Had she not been working with the deacon, it was very possible that she would have been killed... or worst, captured by that annoying hat. So there were a couple things she wanted to work on. The first was her offensive power. Even with her Amber's Strength, she was not strong enough to really hurt the slime. It was only through a frenzy of many hits that she was able to over come its sheer defense. That was unacceptable though. She never liked the idea of being stalled out, especially when she liked to specialize in stall out fights. long fights are fun when your winning. Sadly, she was not winning that encounter. There were other things she wanted improve which involved the other spells but she liked to focus on one thing at a time.
After slamming her fist a few times, she burst out of her room with a bottle of water in her hand. She was a bit more quiet upon entering the halls as to not disturb anyone but as soon as she was in the courtyard, she went full throttle. She was approved to train her, thus she some dummies stored close by and quickly pulled them out. Then she slammed her fist together again and summoned her Amber's Strength. This was the first spell she wanted to practice with. While she had a lot of experience with it, it could be better, stronger, harder. The only way to make muscle stronger was to break them down and rebuild them so she planned to do the same thing with her magic. First was a right swing, then a left hook, followed by a right uppercut. Her blows got quicker and meatier. She was warming up and she always did better in extended engagements. When it came to training it was no different. A nonstop furry of blows onto the dummy which was only in pieces due to its high quality.
Finally after several minutes of constant assault, she felt a warm pain on her knuckle. Stopping for a moment, she inspected her hands and saw that not only had the the amber wore away, but she was bleeding through her bandages. It had been so long since she really trained liked this, she was getting soft. Slamming her fist together once more, she summoned her amber and resumed her boxing, abet being more careful not to further injure herself.
It was time to train her next spell. With the state of her hands, her first mind went to her healing spell, Jade's Blessing. However, She also wondered if working with Onyx's Protection would be better. She picked up the dummy and punched it lightly, then she made a decision. She would practice them both. So first she hit her chest with her right hand and spawn nodes of Onyx scattered across her body. Then she opened her right hand in front of her herself and a jade spawn in her hand. The gem then flew over her head and started radiating healing magic while increasing her durability. The wound on her fist slowly started to close and then the gem disappeared. With her Amber dispelled, everything was about durability and endurance. If she did get a wound she would activate Jade's Blessing in hopes it would last longer than it was but with a more potent effect.. However, there was one small problem. She needed something to strike her.
Before she had a seagull attacking her. While that would be great again, there was little chance she was going to find that bird again at the Wilhelm estate. So the girl continue to think until she noticed one of the staff members, a maid walking by. The girl ran up to the maid and requested that she helped her with her training. The woman was reluctant at first but after much pleading she agreed. What the girl needed the woman to do was very simple. She needed the woman to strike her with the wooden sword. The girl would then attempt to parry the attack while trying to reduce as much as she could with her Onyx's Protection. Any blow she could not resist could be healed by her Jade's Blessing. So it was a double training.
The woman would swing her wooden stick vertically. The girl rose her arm to stop it, It hurt a bit which meant she did not exactly get the right about of focus into the spell. The next swing came at her side which the girl took with her other arm. It was at this point that another servant walked by who was actually in charge of assistant the family train. Maria got a bit scolded by the woman as the maid received permission to leave. Lucky for the girl, the trainer was free to actually help her. So things would resume a quickly as they stopped. The trainer was much quicker than the maid. Her strikes were harder, swifter, and much more complex. They also hurt a lot more when the girl messed up or was not ready to block. In fact. She was parrying a lot less than before. First a heavy strike along her shoulder. Then a jab at her chest. Quick strike cause her left leg to sting but the girl was able to react to the next over head strike, or so she thought. The strike was actually a feint meant to create an opening where the trainer could grab her arm and flip the girl over her shoulders.
It hurt. Some of it was resisted but most of it hurt which was great. It was great because when they break and she casted her Jade's Blessing, she would have more things to heal and test its effectiveness. Second, it was a much more entertaining session. There were no words, no scolding, just action. She could do this all day though she was sure something would come up. Plus, she would like to eventually attack back. Still, for being a self induced punching back, she was having a lot of fun. Not to mention, she was creating and casting spells so much more than before. Most of her spells were long sustaining spells but Jade's Blessing was something mean to be a one time casted thing. It was something she wanted to use and not have to think about in battle. So using magic this way was also a complete change in pace.
Eventually it was time to stop. The girl thanked the trainer for their help. While she did get scolded again, it was for the better. She could feel the difference between having an actual fighter work with her verses a civilian. Not only did she get to better test her limits of her Onyx's Protection, she had plenty of bruises to use her Jade's blessing on. In fact, that was what she was focusing on right now. Dispelling her Onyx's blessing, she focused all her mana into her spell Jade's Blessing. She held out her right hand an created the gem again. It was a slow process as she had to keep casting it repeatedly since it did not work like Moonstone's blessing. However, she could feel the power of the spell grow. The energy from the jade was feeling more relaxing and making her just a bit more durable. Also, it was lasting longer than before. The stinging wounds were becoming less stingy. Though when she poked them, she still felt like she needed an ice pack. Thus that meant, this was not good enough. The girl needed to work harder, she needed to push more mana into her Jade's Blessing. But first she had to take a quick break.
After recovering more of her mana, She held out her hand and closed her eyes. This time would be different. She started really focusing on her mana and pushed it all into her hand. Then she finally summoned the Jade. The gem flew over her head and then released the strongest pulse of healing energy she had ever felt from her magic. It was working. Her wounds were closing quicker much quicker. It was light night and day. She finally succeeded in her training. Though her body was still a little sore, she had the rest of the day to keep using and keep practicing.
