Tales Of The Supremes 56 Incredible Training

"I will spar with Uno. Kalipsi, train with Laz." Tala suggested.

"No problem," Kalipsi replied.

Kalipsi and Uno started to circle the place, planting stones. Seeing this, Laz couldn't help but be curious. 'What are they doing?' He didn't ask and just continue to observe the two. He could clearly see the stones they planted, and he didn't notice any special of it. In his eyes, it was just ordinary stones.

As the last stone planted, Kalipsi surged his energy to it and connects every stone through his energy. When every stone was connected, a transparent wall was formed enveloping them all.

Laz couldn't help but mesmerized. "Incredible!" It's his first time seeing a wall formation in that size. He looked at the two with owe.

As a disciple of a master in a Stone Hall, he knew how hard it was to make a formation. Just it's material was hard to gather.

Kalipsi and Uno set up a wall formation in order to hide their presence.

"This will help us isolate from the people outside," Uno explained.

Laz did heard him but he just couldn't response yet.

"Let's begin," Kalipsi said. His voice woke up Laz from being mesmerized.

He indiscernibly nodded.

"Come to me with all your might," Kalipsi ordered. He noticed the hesitation of Laz. He did not say anymore and just waited for Laz to decide.

Uno covered himself by his energy to the fullest that caught the attention of Laz.

Laz couldn't believe the energy he felt. Uno was far from him, but he could feel the overwhelming power of the youth.

'This is not the energy of a warrior nor an elite warrior. Is he a master?' This thought hastened the breath of Laz.

Uno instantaneously charges towards Tala. His overwhelming speed made Laz grasped for air.

Uno materialized his sword. He thrust it forward.

Tala did not budge to where she stand.

'Is he going to block it?' Laz did not know what to think anymore.

Tala had just been standing there without doing a thing seemingly waiting for an attack. He did not even materialize his sword. This made Laz more antic.i.p.ate what will happen next.

Tala smoothly avoided the sword of Uno without being suffocated to the energy that covering the youth.

Uno did not stop to attack. He swung his sword but Tala avoided it with his hands on his back?

'How is this possible?' That speed was no way to be compared with any person in their land, but Tala had been avoiding it smoothly? Laz couldn't guess how powerful Tala was.

The two locked in a fight.

Kalipsi purposely cleared his throat. "Are you ready?"

Laz was awaken to Kalipsi's voice. If Uno and Tala were that powerful, for sure, Kalipsi was not far from them.

He did not hesitate any longer. He took a stance of offense. "I'm ready."

"Just come to me."

Laz nodded confidently. He materialized his sword. Slowly, his body was covered with his energy, but it was faint. He charged at Kalipsi without restraints. As he expected, Kalipsi blocked his attacked effortlessly.

Laz thrust his sword.

Kalipsi didn't budge to where he stood. He raised his palm and blocked the sword of Laz. With slight energy on his palm, Kalipsi easily stopped the momentum of Laz's sword.

It stopped midair.

Laz looked at Kalipsi with awe, but he didn't stop his attack. He swung his sword as his body sway aiming Kalipsi's head.

Kalipsi flipped his body backward and landed smoothly to the ground.

Laz didn't stop to charge, but Kalipsi avoided it in just an inch away without bathing sweats.

The time pa.s.sed by, Laz and Kalipsi locked in a fight.

Laz didn't even notice that Tala and Uno already at rest.

In all that time, Laz has realized that Kalipsi has been blocking and avoiding his attack, but not just normal block and avoid.

It seemed like Kalipsi had been guiding him to where his sword and body should be!

As he thought, Laz felt his energy become purer while he became proficient in his sword skills.

'Is this how the kingdom train their students? How fierce and cool!'

Though sweats dropping at his forehead, a sweet smile decorated his face. Laz became more motivated to train.

Kalipsi surfaced a faint smile seeing the sudden enthusiastic behavior of Laz.

'I guess he already noticed it,' Kalipsi paused to where he stood and said, "That's all for today."

"Thank you for the time," Laz said sincerely. "You help me time and time again. If there's anything that I could do, you can ask me."

Kalipsi acted like a man that was pondering and said, "Actually there's one."

With brighten eyes, Laz asked, "What is it?"

Kalipsi materialized a piece of paper. He skillfully controled his energy to write something on it. Without caring the incredulous look of Laz, he folded the paper and extend his arm. "Open this when you get home."

Laz couldn't help but admire the youth for his skills.

Using one's energy as the ink was hard to accomplish even if one is a master. That's a fact that he sees, for his master was unable to do it always and if he does it, it was crude.

Laz received the note.

"Let's go down. It is already dark," said Uno.

His words made Laz looked at the sky where stars already twinkling as the crescent moon illuminating their surroundings.

Kalipsi and Uno picked up the stones with the aid of Laz who insisted to help.

That's the opportunity Laz has to examine the stones.

His heart raced seeing the stones in closer look.

For the energy of the stone were not dissipated yet, he felt an unimaginable energy of the stones that belong to a C beasts.

He also noticed the intricately symbols and unknown writings on it.

His thirst for knowledge and power reached another high.

...

Four figures went out of a mountain.

Arriving in front of the Stone Hall, Laz clasped his fist and said, "Thank you again."

"You're always welcome," Kalipsi smiled.

"We will go our way too. Good night to you Laz," said Uno.

Laz waved his hand to the disappearing silhouette of the three.

Laz asked permission to his master before he goes home.

"Laz, I already arrange your new house just in front of this hall. Your brother and mother are already there." His master handed over a key. "This is the original key. I give the duplicate one to your mother. Everything was already settled. The house and lot were already been paid. Don't make me waste it." Because of the attack of the beasts yesterday, his master arranged a new house to them near the Stone Hall for his safety and his family. He insisted this idea for a long time, but Laz always denied it, so he decided to do it on his own. That way, Laz was no way to refute.

Though Laz wanted to refute, the expenses were already been paid. "Thank you, master," Laz clasped his fist as he sincerely bowed.

"No need to thank me. As your master, your safety is my priority."

Laz smiled at him with admiration.

"Where did you go this whole day?" Asked Lawa. He has been searching for his disciple but to no avail.

"I went to the mountain located at the north side to prepare for tomorrow's selection," replied Laz.

"Good. Though you don't know the content of the selection, it's better to be prepared," Lawa's commented.

The diligence of Laz made his master admire him more, but Laz didn't notice it. For him, it was something he should do.

...

Coming home, Laz was greeted by his younger brother.

"Big brother, this house is big," Saz exclaimed.

Laz nodded. Just as he entered the house, a lot of part.i.tion greeted his sight.

Laz familiarized himself to the house. There were four rooms, a kitchen, a dining room, a small garden at the back of the house.

"Master's truly rich," Laz commented under his breath.

His mother was already sleeping. Laz looked at his brother and said, "You also need to sleep now."

"Yes big brother," Saz entered a room next to his mother. "Good night brother."

"Good night Saz," Laz patted Saz's head. "Have a good sleep."

Saz cutely nodded.

Laz entered his room next to his brother. He slipped his hand to his pocket and picked the note of Kalipsi.

Just touching it, he could feel the lingering energy of the young man.

He was startled to see what was written.

"Partic.i.p.ate on the upcoming selection," Laz read the note. "Even if he didn't tell me this, I will partic.i.p.ate in it." He couldn't get the point of the young man. "Wait up... I forgot to ask if they will also partic.i.p.ate."

He stood up and was going to open the door to inquire the three if they are going to partic.i.p.ate when he suddenly remembered that he didn't know where the three live.

"Urghhh! How did I forget to ask?"
