Chapter 158  Oliver\'s choice

Sigfor knew how terrifying the Sacred Swords Clan\'s prowess was when it came to the handling of weapons—especially swords. They were second to none in swordsmanship.

They were the best among all when it came to using and handling swords.

It did not come as a surprise that their heir turned out to be a genius in this regard.

"I will have the spear," Alphonso said as he picked up a spear from the assortment of weapons. He was used to spears and with his wind element, it was quite a suitable choice for him.

"Elder, I am not sure about weapons…" Amber said as she looked at the array of weapons with interest, wondering just which weapon would best suit her.

Her eyes sparkled with curiosity as she imagined herself wielding each one.

"Hmm, which one of them attracts your eye the most?"

"Well, if I had to say, then the hammer, greatsword, and gauntlets seem rather appealing," she muttered with fascination.

She wanted to use her own tools but knew that it wasn\'t allowed. She was much more comfortable using artifacts and her diverse exorcism tools.

"Then give each of them a try. We will go with the one that suits you the best," Sigfor said calmly.

"Does this mean that I can choose multiple weapons?" she asked curiously.

"Of course, there\'s no rule saying you can only select a single weapon for training," he replied.

"Albeit, mastering a single weapon could be more fruitful for the future, but if you feel you can handle it, then be my guest and have a go with them," he added.

"I understand, elder." Amber nodded and picked up the weapons. The weight of each one felt right in her hands, and she wondered which would become her favorite.

"Wait, elder, then can I also have the bow as well?" Alphonso asked in a low voice, a little flustered. His eyes had been drawn to the bow alongside the spear as well.

Since they could give it a try, he wanted to try using a bow once too. He might be more compatible with it in the long run after all.

"Sure. Take it." Sigfor nodded.

"Hmm! I think I will have this." Evelyn came forward and picked up a weapon.

It was a sword—a katana, to be specific. She twisted her wrist and moved the katana in the air; it felt very familiar to her.

Her hand clutched the weapon tight as her eyes were drawn to the long blade. It could properly conduct her light element and channel her espera to it as well.

Oliver followed behind her and picked up a katana as well. It was an exotic weapon, different from the traditional ones.

Evelyn saw this and made a surprised face. She asked, "You are also interested in a katana?"

She was curious. Did Oliver also feel the same way as her about the weapon?

"Something like that," he smiled and said.

He could not tell her that since she was about to start practicing with the katana, he would automatically gain knowledge and experience about it as well sooner or later.

She laughed and patted his shoulder. "Then it looks like we will spar a lot in the future."

"Looks like that." He tilted his head and laughed a little.

Amber, who was observing from the side, narrowed her eyes. She did not know when, but her grip on the hammer tightened a bit for some reason.

Last was Nadia. She looked at the array of weapons with disinterest.

Her mother had already selected the perfect weapon for her back at the clan. After this was over, she was going to perform a ritual of selection with the weapon her mother had chosen once she returned to the clan.

She did not need these weapons.

But in the end, she still had to choose, so she picked up a longsword, a scythe, and some throwing weapons.

"It seems everyone has made their choice." Sigfor looked around and nodded. The weapons disappeared from the table back into his storage space.

"Now then, I will teach you how to improve your form. While my primary weapon might be different than yours, with my experience alone, I can help you all."

Sigfor said as he waved the spear in his hand. The air around the spear trembled before an illusionary dragonfly appeared at the tip of the spear.

The dragonfly flew over their heads before scattering into countless light particles and disappearing.

They looked at it in awe.

"Now then, get your weapons ready! All of you come at me!"

Sigfor announced in a loud tone, suddenly making all the desks and chairs disappear. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

All that was left in the dilapidated hall was him and the kids.

"FINE BY ME!"

Daniel did not hesitate and swung his sword at Sigfor, his eyes fierce as if he wanted to actually slash him.

"Humph."

Sigfor easily parried his strike, pushing him back like nothing.

Swing!

Daniel did not back down and the next moment threw himself towards Sigfor again, only to be thrown backwards as their weapons collided.

Clang!

Clang!

Daniel kept charging at Sigfor, his movements irregular and hurried.

Oliver noticed this. While his moves looked irregular and reckless, he could feel a calculated and proper form behind them.

\'He knows what he is doing.\' Oliver thought as he observed the spar carefully. Daniel was constantly switching his form, wanting to take Sigfor by surprise but losing to him miserably after every turn.

He felt that Daniel should focus more on one form first if he wanted to improve. Right now, it looked more like he wanted to defeat the elder at any cost and not actually learn and improve his form.

Oliver was thinking when the elder\'s voice rang again.

"What are you all waiting for? Did I not say to come at me at once? Come forward!" he said.

"But sir, a spar should take place between the two parties only… It would be rude of us to cross the line and group together against you. It will be equal to cheating…" Alphonso said in a conflicted tone.

Slap!

The sound echoed in the hall, silencing everyone.
