Okay, so far so good. What else was decided?"
Lady Xinun says "As promised you will be given your freedom for your part in this plan. However you will not be returned to your city, you will have to make your own way back."
"And the reason for this?"
Lady Xinun says "It was decided that you will be a formidable enemy, but Lord Timment refused to go back on his word. So it was decided to make it harder on you to slow down your growth."
"Please pass on my respect to Lord Timment, I will remember his honor when we are enemies."
Lady Xinun says "I will do so. Just so you know I voted with Lord Timment, but we were out voted by the others."
"I must admit I am surprised, I thought you would want me dead most of all."
Lady Xinun says "No, the one I most want dead is Lord Shendaw. If you can assist in that happening I can forgive everything else that happened between us. Can you?"
"I will make you a deal."
Lady Xinun says "Now you sound like a demon! What deal do you offer?"
"I will assist in making sure Lord Shendaw dies, and I will forgive you for everything. In exchange you will give me Vacker when I leave."
Lady Xinun says "Well, he is old, and he has trained many soldiers for me. Very well I will agree to your deal. Assuming you can bring down Lord Shendaw and survive."
"Deal!"
Lady Xinun says "You know you will most likely both die in the jungle."
"Possibly, but dieing free is better than living as slaves."
— Congratulations! You have acquired the Mental skill Mind Blade!
√ Mind Blade
√ Level: 1
— Intelligence +2 Willpower +1 Dmg + 1⁄4 Intelligence.
— A blade created with mental strength.
'What??!'
Immediately I try the skill again but keep my eyes open, it creates a translucent blue blade in my hands that looks exactly like Blitz. It may not do as much damage as Blitz but it is still better than fighting unarmed. This is exactly what I needed to give me an edge in the arena.
After some experimenting I find I can change the shape and size of the blade at will. The weight also changes to whatever I imagine it to be, but no matter how light or heavy it is the damage stays the same. Using the mind blade I go through a full set of the basics that Vacker taught me.
— Due to intense exercise Strength +1!
The mind blade uses up my mental energy, by the time I am done with the set of exercises my mind is as tired as my body. So I can't use it constantly, but I should be able to last for an entire fight. As long as I get a rest between fights in the arena I should be just fine.
Vacker says "That's the first time I have seen anyone other than a swordmaster create a sword will."
"Sword will??"
Vacker says "A sword made from pure willpower."
"Oh, can you make one?"
Vacker says "Yes, but only for a few seconds. Yours lasted almost thirty minutes, that is amazing! When did you learn to make a sword will?"
"Um, just now?"
Vacker says "WHAT?!?!?"
