Hi there I'll be the one grading you today.

- You've entered into a fallacy when you said that sword is a magic that can copy others' magic. That is actually what imitation does. You learn elements much like a summoner would and that's by having someone help you understand their element and with that understanding and practice able to channel it into the swords you make.

- Again, you are unable to copy the element that is imitation's domain you need to come to an understanding of the element to be able to learn it.

- You aren't stealing anyone's element

- Who's estate are you on because it isn't the Ravencrest's Hania won't permit people onto the estate that he doesn't know for the safety of his family and those who work for them.

- Walking onto a noble's estate and setting rules is disrespectful and a surefire way to be told to leave. This is more a note for the future as not everyone will be as nice as Kenja was about it. Perhaps suggesting they should some set rules and have them both put some forward instead of going "So this is fair I've got some rules." You know?

- You need to do more than just feel an element to learn it, it needs to be taught to you so you can understand it

- You can't replicate elements

- Kenja is slightly faster than you, there's little way you'd get past his guard without him acting

- You can't say your weapon is superior to his, you aren't a blacksmith also the Ravencrest don't use anything but the highest quality items.

- It's getting close to metagaming, you don't get to decide if it is knocked back that falls to your opponent to decide.

- He wouldn't feel Kenja's energy within him

- Your grimoire isn't sentient it wouldn't be telling you anything

- The mana wouldn't be speaking to him in any way but he personally may think it is or even believe he feels certain things others can't.

- You wouldn't be able to dodge Kenja's kick, you were point blank and he's moving 15 m/s faster than you

- You wouldn't have taken anything from your father, you would have been born with that element imbued to your actual element.

- You don't feed off people's mana

- Do you have Sensory? If not there's no way you're feeling his mana strongly

- what happened to your family sword? I didn't see that you dropped it to the ground, Did it get knocked away from you or put away... did you grow a third arm?

- Just a note having an element channelling into your blade won't help you experience it or help you learn about it

- I would say that Kenja was more prideful than arrogant and it was you who brought up status, not him

- How is he feeling an element through a sword he isn't touching?

- Nothing would show up in your grimoire until the spell is actually approved

- Your grimoire doesn't eat mana

- Your grimoire wouldn't take in items

- Kenja would have been taught to use weapons properly he's from a militaristic family

Overall, it was a good read but I have to fail it and due to it being with another it can't be edited, you can take the reduction as a normal thread however. I would like to note that sword and summoner mages have to learn elements in stages, they aren't like imitation mages who just need to see something to learn it.

This is as follows

- Asking if they can learn the element
- The acceptance of the one with the element
- The one with the element explaining about the element, how it feels, how it reacts etc
- The one with the element showing the element and allowing the other to feel it
- The one learning trying to summon the element themselves
- The one learning creating a golem or having it flow over their sword or other medium
- A potential spar showing they understand and can use the element
