Titaniya watched as the girl kept up with the golems, well more like she was keeping enough to not be decimated by the attacks the golems gave out with their maces seeming to get hit down by them anding up between the golems, rather than have them attack her more Tianiya had the golems reposition to stay in reach of attack but making it so they could once again be fully between Titaniya and the girl instead of having the girl between the golems. “Calculated risks are good. Recklessness is good in its own way also. Of course I understand that strong personalities can work to great effect, but don't use the excuse of it being calculated when you have nothing to show for it.” she gestured at herself “If something came of that risk I would be on the next stage of the teaching.”
She of course was not meaning to be rude, she was just very direct and harsh about any criticism she had not being one to soften anything she said just wanting to be completely honest about how she felt on the matter. Titaniya was starting to feel less like keeping the golems up as she watched the girl fight around with them, she wanted to drop the golem spell to instead beat this mage’s ass up, but she kept her cool for now but that grim grin on her face just kept its spot aya’s black eyes staring into the other girl as they fought.
Titania’s next plan if she did manage to land a hit would be to swap over to attacking also to see how they might deal with someone who was competent in hand to hand fighting like Titania was, would the girl back down scared by Titaniya’s looming self? Probably not as she seemed ok with the much taller golems anyway.
"So you say but then that's assuming you are a good teacher, but you've nothing to show for it. Educator, vice captain, nothing? Guess we're speaking from the same gullet of experience huh~" Bryn said with a shit-eating grin.
The victory in Bryn's eye was the change in her formation tactics. One of the easiest methods of quell a single target was through a unified front, slowly suffocating and suppressing the enemy with the force of superior numbers. Something that Titaniya had on the table and could have easily executed. It was a winning strategy on several fronts. Titaniya had made it clear that the aim was not to teach her how to circumvent this, but the aim was beyond Bryn at this point. Simply adjusting and refining decision making against a foe that clearly outclasses you certainly had something to gain from it. She was sure the Black Bull would get the message across, one way or another.
Still it was time to show what was gained from her reckless move earlier. Now that she was between the golems and had breached the effective range of their weapon choice, naturally the next choice her 'instructor' would take would be to re-establish her positioning. Reform the obstacle that had to be broken through to get to the target. She took up her stance from before and eyed out the golem's movement with her red eyes. Each glance taking a mental note of any differences, any change in play...
...'DONG DONG DONG!' bellowed a sound from down the hill. The echoes within the valley calling any late bloomers to wake and the start of the day. Bryn's form slumped as she let out a sigh while dispelling her reinforcement spell. The afterglow of the red embers fading from her figure as she ran her fingers through the disheaveled clump of hair. Play time was over. As fun as this was developing, Bryn really couldn't afford to skip a day's work for too long. Or at all really. Times were rough after all.
Returning to a neutral stance and scratching the back of her head, the pugilist reluctant had to bring their little session to a close, "Always spoiled by the bell. All the same, I appreciate the help Titaniya. Did help quite a bit."
She was not in a rush to leave immediately, as her body language was trying to convey. There was at least an hour or so wiggle room to work with seeing as her job was in the area. Taking a step back to grab her towel and drinking water, Bryn then turned about to give Titaniya a wave before heading back into town.
She would of course be ready to keep up this fight only for the girl to pause at the sound of bells, seeing them stand down she does also her spells dropping as she nodded a bit “Saved indeed.” she was disappointed that it ended so abruptly, but it mattered little to her as the dark titan would see about leaving the area.
As she left she gave a passing wave to the other girl while putting her hat back on and walking the opposite way to them, her footsteps as loud and delperate as always as she left. Titaniya find the fight fun enough, it was always nice to train someone worth training with, perhaps the girl will go about becoming a magic knight at some time, Titaniya would love to meet them and beat them again if that came to pass. For now that would have to wait for the future, one thing was sure and that was the other girl had a long way before she would be able to fully strike Titaniya.
The large form would soon disappear on the horizon as she entered the forest to leave town heading back for her own base satisfied in her workout for the day.
