Chapter 69: Chapter 69 – Shaman Vs Himeko

After being rudely awakened by Himeko they went ahead and had breakfast. They also washed up in the bathroom and got changed. They made their way up to Himeko's room.

They arrived at Himeko's room and knocked on the panel to get her attention. After a few moments the door began to open to reveal Himeko who was in the same clothes as yesterday.

"What's with the grumpy looking girls, it seems like someone grabbed your tail of something." Himeko had a smirk as she saw the unimpressed faces of Shaman and Elysia.

Shaman and Elysia both shot a death stare at Himeko causing her to let out an awkward smile.

"Anyway let's head to the training grounds and start getting you into shape." Himeko quickly pulled them in, teleporting them to an open arena. It was flat and the size of a soccer field where you could see the tower they were just in on one side while the other has a view of the back end of the city.

"Here is where I will train you and make sure you are in fighting condition as the dungeons tier 5 and above begin to get abnormal with the monsters it has within them."

"If you are not prepared for the worst, you may get yourself killed as these monsters begin to have a lot more intelligence and unique abilities." Shaman, Elysia and Wolfy were all listening carefully to Himeko as it seemed like going straight to the tier 5 dungeon may have been a bad idea.

'Although I have inherited the training of this body I still don't have that battle sense.' Shaman was a little worried as she had been relying on the previous owners training to survive in this world.

"We will begin with sparring so I can see how well you do so we can build up on a foundation you may already have." Himeko began to walk to one end of the arena and summoned a claymore which was almost the size of her. The claymore

'Himeko is around 5'10 so that sword is huge, I would not be surprised if it's taller than me.' Shaman used inspect on the sword to see the details on it. The claymore had a black handle and a rose red hilt, the blade was thick and made up the majority of the height, the blade had a white lining showing the edge of the blade with the remaining having a red colour like the hilt. It could also be seen on the base of the sword a gem of some kind that had a slight glow.

[Scarlet nexus]

[Grade: legendary]

[A legendary claymore that it said to be able to tear through the skies with a single swing with its affinity with fire]

[----Hidden----]

[Stats hidden due to the sword being soul bound]

'Damn I want to find out what kind of gem it is but I'm going to assume it makes Himeko's flames stronger.' Shaman was a little disappointed in not being able to figure out the weapons stats and abilities.

"Shaman, I want you to come and attack me first and don't worry anything is allowed and I will only be on the defensive for now." Himeko shouted and Shaman went to the other side of the arena and summoned her sword for the first time. Shaman holstered the sheath and withdrew Kotetsu for the first time. The black and White sword shined as she got ready for battle and Himeko was quite surprised to see the sword.

'If I am not mistaken, that looks like a sword that belongs to the Hikaru clan but what is it doing in Shaman's hands?' Himeko was rather suspicious of the origins of the sword but could not confirm it.

"Alright, ready when you are." Himeko began to get excited as she could not wait to see how Shaman uses her 4 elements in battle.

Shaman took a deep breath and locked eyes with himeko and began to dash forward.

When she got to the midway point she activated her sword domain and the white flower field sprouted across the arena. Himeko was pleasantly surprised and her anticipation grew as Shaman approached her.

Shaman was now Infront of Himeko in one last dash using her wind to give her the extra speed and used [Sword gale] on Kotetsu. The sword slashed down at incredible speeds but not fast enough for Himeko to not see.

Himeko raised her claymore and flames engulfed the blade and taking the shape of the blade, she blocked Shamans overhead attack and the wind around the blade made the fire on the blade explode causing her to jump back.

"What happened to not attacking?"

"Well sweetie that's what happens when elements collide so be more careful next time." Himeko grinned and prepared for Shaman's next attack.

Shaman still used her wind for movement but opted to switch to the water element for her sword. Water enveloped the sword as it was one of its abilities to infuse itself with the element. A dark blue emanated from the hilt and the white lines around the sword had also turned into a dark blue.

'Damn good thing I did not do that for the wind otherwise that explosion may have been unnecessarily bigger.' Shaman felt relieved that she did not infuse Kotetsu with the wind element and it could have spelled trouble for her.

Shaman went to the side of Himeko but did not strike but instead conjured up an ice wall on the other side of Himeko. This allowed Shaman to shoot a [ice spear] from that wall as she was still in control of it. Himeko slashed down instantly, destroying the wall alongside the spear; however, as soon as she turned her back the presence of Shaman disappeared.

Himeko looked around in confusion however suddenly a wave of water shot up from below alongside Shaman came underneath Himeko.

Himeko quickly increased the intensity of the flames of the sword causing all the water to vaporize instantly but the water on Kotetsu was untouched. Shaman noticed this and continued with her strike towards Himeko's chest but Himeko managed to parry the blade before jumping back.

"I'm quite impressed, you managed to get me to move but may I ask how you were able to conceal your presence?" Himeko was rather confused as unless you were a trained assassin it was nearly impossible to do so.

"hehe~ not telling." Shaman did not want to say how she was able to use the shadow element as revenge for pulling her tail.

"I guess I will just have to fight it out of you." Himeko's eyes glowed and Shaman felt shivers down her spine as it seemed like she made a grave mistake.

Himeko vanished from where she was standing and appeared behind Shaman.

Shaman's instincts kick in as she barely manages to turn around and block Himeko's sword. The sound of sizzling could be heard as the water was slowly being evaporated by the sword. Shaman tried to use her ice and fly spears towards Himeko.

Himeko pushed off Shaman and dodge the ice spears, Himeko also slashed down while in the air launching a fire slash.

Shaman quickly used her wind to dodged out of the way barely escaping the explosion that came after it.

'I thought she was just going to defend, not attack me.' Shaman began to sweat and was curious why the sudden shift occurred.

Shaman quickly shifted her sword's element to ice causing it to go back to its normal white colour but now with the white glow and ice covering the sword. Himeko emerged from the smoke that was created from the Fire slash and gestured to Shaman to come at her.

Shaman dragged the sword along the ground making a trail of ice as she approached Himeko.

Shaman jumped into the air and conjured up [ice spears] and crashed down on to Himeko. Shaman also did not stop there; she used the trail of ice to shoot spears from and aimed them all at Himeko.

Himeko smirked and all of a sudden just before Shaman and her swords clashed, wings of fire sprouted from Himeko's back causing all the [ice spears] to melt in an instant. This however did not deter Shaman and the clashing of Kotetsu and Scarlet nexus caused a slight shake of the arena.

The ice on Kotetsu was starting to melt, indicating Shaman to back away but Shaman did not stop and used the remaining ice to send one last spike. The spike went straight to Himeko's face causing her to move her head away. After she dodged it, Shaman quickly leaped away from Himeko and conjured up some ice around her as the heat from the wings was intense and needed to cool down.

"You sure do keep impressing me Shaman, you even managed to hit me." Himeko dispelled her flames and walked towards Shaman.

"How could I, I don't see a single scratch on you." Shaman had almost ran out of mana as the constant use of her elements had made her run dry.

"Don't you see the cut on my face." Himeko pointed at her cheek.

Shaman looked up and could see blood start to run down the side of her face.

"Well now that you are done it's your girlfriend's turn." Himeko looked at Elysia who was currently in shock of what she just witnessed and swallowed her own saliva as it was now her turn.
