My Servant System



Kat PoV

Training with the twins was... incredibly torturous, but really beneficial.

I guess most geniuses tend to be eccentric to the extreme, but my lord did they both have an incredible grasp on Water and Wind Magic, and their Ice Magic..?

Misa and Lisa had some of the strongest mana I'd felt in general so far, with Misa's Ice flowing fluidly as she froze her Water Mana after casting, creating a delayed style of magic that worked entirely in her strength, which was utilizing her Water Mana for everything.

She could freeze water with just a tap, and her Ice Magic was verging on being snow with some of her attacks, clinging to the surface of the target before being frozen over, encasing the target in a jagged shell of ice.

As for Lisa, her Ice was sharp and quick, each speck of Ice Mana colder than the last as she plummeted the temperatures around her in a gale, creating a small domain that protected her from outside threats whilst also freezing anything that came into contact with it.

Her wind was always chilly, and the Snow Woman had a level of coldness to her attacks that almost replicated [Frost of Despoina]

They were both so incredibly strong, and when working together, they were capable of creating a frozen landscape in a moment, overwhelming their opponent in mere moments as they shrouded the world in ice.

If this was what they were capable of, what was Lady Yusa capable of?

Just how potent would her magics be compared to theirs?

Honestly, that thought went for each of the Empress' wives, since I got to witness Monica clicking her tongue as she returned the mountain to its previous warm state, making the twins frown as flames danced around us, melting the ice and pushing back the chill in the air.

We traded spells and techniques for everything during those hours, with Monica tossing in her two cents whenever she could and helping us understand some things quicker or deeper as we talked, before putting those spells to use and trying them out on the garden, which we made sure to leave undamaged as best we could.

When the sun descended down to the horizon, I got up and bowed to the three sisters, telling them that I was required to return to Jahi by dusk before leaving, the three just nodding before the twins summoned another chessboard, one that had an opening for a third player that enabled Monica to play with them.

I made my way through the Palace and returned to Jahi's side, finding her sitting against a wall and staring up at the darkening sky, her amethyst eyes narrowed and filled with an unknown contemplation, though they softened as she turned towards me.

"First as always, Kat~ You're such a good puppy..."

Getting to her feet, the Demoness leaned down and placed a swift kiss on my lips before retrieving her great sword, gesturing to the rapier and daggers that resided in their sheaths beside her.I think you should take a look at

I took my weapons and unsheathed the rapier, joining Jahi for a spar as we waited for the other two.

Leone arrived a few minutes later, her Estoc strapped to her back and her armor secured to her body, the Vampire expressing an interest in sparring for longer tonight, before telling Jahi and I that Anput might not be joining us.

When we asked why, the Vampire just frowned before saying "Aunt Fenryas.", which made us nod in understanding considering we had all been receiving our tutoring from the women the Empress advised, and Anput's was Lady Fenryas.

Nirinia wasn't the only one to join us tonight either, as Dante, Roman and Vienna made their way in as well, watching us from afar before joining us as we began to do group combats, working together to defeat the other team before shuffling the rosters to keep everything fresh.

Each of them provided a new style for us to train against; Dante had a more reactive fighting style, using his shield to defend from attacks and only swinging his mace whenever someone got within range.

On the opposite side of the spectrum was Vienna, who forewent defense and instead pushed forwards further and further, her twin falchions creating a sphere of deadly metal around herself as she slammed against her opponents, trying to overwhelm them with speed and power in equal measures.

As for Roman, the Wolfkin man just used his daggers and needles to support whoever was on his side from afar, before slipping in to any gaps that appeared and delivering lethal strikes that usually ended spars.

What we learned from this night of sparring was immense, and we stayed up far past the setting of the sun and trained beneath the light of the moon and of Jahi's lights.

The addition of those three made the spars so much more intense, and we all left the Training Grounds with muscles screaming in refreshing agony, proof of our hard work and improvements.

Grabbing something to eat first, we returned to our room and found Anput passed out on the bed, curled into a ball and covered in blankets and pillows, the Jackalkin nested in the center of her soft mattress.

Her ears twitched when we entered, but she made no sign of being awake as we took a bath and ended the night with some Dual Cultivation, preparing to start the next day the same as we normally did, wanting to use these days as best we could in preparation for the excursion ahead.

Of course, with the training and honing of some skills, my others were slowly growing dull, and the prime one was my Enchanting, which was a tad worrisome considering I wanted to have all of our gear enchanted whenever we departed, but in order to do that I needed to give up some of these other trainings...

It was a balance that I needed to maintain, and that would be a hard scale to keep balanced out going forwards, but one that I needed to get set straight.

Time was precious, after all, so I wanted to do what I could whenever I could...
