"My Body Control, Swordsmanship, and Senses improved quite a bit, but now I need to level up my magic skill levels as well". I thought to myself.

"So what are your plans?" Eito asked with a curious expression.

"I need to level up my magic related skills". I said with a broad smile.

"OK, if you need any help in magic training, I can help you since I mainly focus on magic myself". Eito said with a prideful expression.

"If I do need help, then I'll tell you". I said with genuine expression.

"Good". Eito said while pouting, which eventually turned into a grin.

"Since I've been resting for a while, I should probably start training with my magic now". I said while standing up.

"I'll be watching you train from the corner of the room, so if you need any help just call me over". Eito said while pouring toward where she was going to go.

"Thanks". I said with a meaningful expression.

"No need to thank me, since we're friends". Eito said while walking towards the spot she had previously pointed towards.

"True". I said with a smile.

"Good, now get to your training". Eito said with a smile.

"I know". I said while walking in the opposite direction.

I walked over to the magic dummies and changed their setting from using weapons to both weapons and magic.

The magic dummies have three settings, which are weapons, magic, and a setting which uses  both weapons and magic, which are then split up into close, mid, and long range combat.
After selecting the setting, I once again put it at level 6 and went to the center of the room.

"Start". I ordered the magic dummies, which they responded to their eyes beginning to glow a hue of blue.

They began to fire magic with each one casting nearly instantaneously, while doing so at the same time.

As soon as the barrage of magic spells was about to hit me, I activated [Ice Magic] and created an Ice Wall as well as Ice Spears, while also activating [Wind Magic] to launch the Ice Spears.

I then launched the Ice Spears at the barrage of magic spells, which then split up into smaller Ice shards, which then come into contact with the magic spells.

*Creakk!"

Once the ice shards came into contact with the magic spells, they were frozen by the [Icy Touch] attribute which was added to the Ice Spears, but then was amplified when they became smaller Ice Shards.

I then checked my mana:

Mana: [150/270]

"You need to prioritize on not wasting too much mana on your spells". Eito yelled with a serious expression.

"I know, but that is the only thing I'm struggling with currently". I said, while looking toward Eito.

"OK then let me help you with that instead of using those magic dummies". Eito said with a genuine smile.

"Fine". I said while pouting and crossing my arms, which then changed to a cheerful expression.

"Deactivate and go back to your stations". I ordered the magic dummies, which they followed immediately.

As soon as the magic dummies went back to their stations, they then deactivated, which followed after their eyes lost the hue of blue which they had when they were activated.

As soon as the magic dummies were deactivated, a servant came into the private training room and bowed once he was a few meters in front of me.

"Your name is Albert, right?" I asked with a curious expression.

"Y-yes my lady". Albert said with a slightly surprised expression, since he expected her not to remember his name.

"What do you need?" I asked with a slightly irritated expression.

"Sorry for bothering you my lady, but my queen needs you". Albert said with cold sweat going down his back.

"I see, guess I can't train with you Eito". I said with a sad expression.

"It's fine, your mother probably has something important to talk to you about". Eito said with a smile.

"That's true". I said with a smile.

"We can train magic together another time". Eito said with a reassuring expression.

"Yeah we can do that". I said while walking towards Albert.

I then followed Albert. Soon we were now in front of my mother's office, which I assumed was where my mother was currently. I then knocked on the door.

"You may come in". Kiyomi said with a beautiful and mature voice.

I then opened the door and walked into the office. When I entered, the office was once again red and white with some wooden floors, but with some art of past kitsune hanging on the walls, there was a desk in the middle of the room where my mother was sitting behind with stacks of papers on the desk.

I then sat down, while waiting for my mother to begin to speak. Albert then left to go back to his duties.

"I got an invitation from the Harimogura Family, which are hosting the Primordial Family Assembly this year". Kiyomi said with a serious expression.

The Primordial Family Assembly happens every four years where one of the 7 families hosts the assembly and invites the other 6 families to their palace. It is used to talk about certain subjects or change/make rules for the country.

"I see, when is it?" I asked with a curious expression.

"Tonight". Kiyomi said with a complicated expression, since normally they would get the invitation a week or so before it takes place.

"No wonder I had to end my training for today". I said with a slightly frustrated expression.

"Well, we can't do much about it, set about attending the assembly". Kiyomi with a smile.

"Yep". I said with a smile.

"You'll need to dress up for this so I'll have some maids to help you with dressing up". Kiyomi said while calling the maids with a magic tool.

"All right". I said with a smile while standing up.

Soon the maids knocked on the door, to which my mother responded by saying come in. I then followed them to my boudoir after saying bye to my mother.
