NAKO'S POV

Even before the sun rises, I am already inside the training chamber of the oneiric castle, I can't relax and sleep well because of our training today. Yes, training, We decide to train ourselves in using heartiz crystal, and honestly, I feel anxious right now, I can't focus while practicing my swordsmanship skill. While practicing I felt a presence behind me, so I became alert to lunge an attack, but then I was shocked to see Minju smiling at me while she dodges my attack

"Yah, Nako ... You're doing great!"

She said as she claps her hands.

"Tss ... Not as good as Yena Unnie"

I said, I put down my sword and approached Minju who was now sitting on the floor.

"You know, no one can beat Yena Unnie when it comes to weapons right? Unnie's weapons skill is remarkable! Anyway, Why are you so early?"

I didn't answer Minju's question, instead, I sigh and lie down on the floor.

"Ah, right! This is your first time doing this kind of training, I bet you're nervous"

I didn't speak again, Right, this is my first time doing Magic Training, I can only do sword fighting but when it comes to using magic, I always think I'm the worst.

As a healer, I always support them at the back and heal their wounds, I can fight using a sword, and also this is the very first time for me to learn how to use elemental magic, I never imagined coming to the point that I will practice and learn these kinds magics that others have, It is because of our heartiz crystal, and honestly, I don't know what to do.

As I am lost in my thoughts, I felt Minju's finger poking my cheeks

"Nako, why don't we duel?"

She asked, I smiled at her and nodded, perhaps this is not a bad idea, right? I immediately stand up as I summoned my dagger, Minju is known as a deceiver as she is good at tricking her opponents, I need to be careful

"Let's not use magic, since I know you are not familiar with this kind of training"

She said as she summoned her sword,

"Yah Kim Minju! Be ready"

"Let's keep it light"

And with that, both of us lunge and attack each other

______________________________________

I continue to throw a series of my dagger on Minju's side, and she keeps on dodging them, while a few of my daggers hit her a little it is still not enough to beat her in this duel

Honestly, I know everything about Minju's fighting skills but even with all my knowledge about her, I'm still surprised by how she executes this
