Heavenly Saga

The last match of the Qualifiers Round of the Selection Tournament of the 210th class of the Verrater was between Kraftvoll and Glothion of the dwarven race.

The match did not last that much because of the major gap between the seishin cultivation and talent of the two of them. Kraftvoll won hands-down against Glothion of the dwarven and as a result, he moved to the next round.

To be able to fight at their full power in the next round, the participants of the quarterfinal were given a one-hour break to replenish the inner seishin essences that they had used in their previous fights in the qualifying round.

All the winners of the qualifiers round went to deep meditative position to recharge their inner seishin essences. All those who did not use that much seishin essences recovered faster than the others.

Kraftvoll was the first one to finish in replenishing his inner seishin. He used the free time he had to go to his sworn brother who was slightly injured in his previous fight in the infirmary of the first-years' building.

As soon as he entered, Kraftvoll saw his sworn brother, Godwin, lying down in one of the beds of the infirmary.

"Oh. You already finished your battle? That was fast." said Godwin as soon as he saw Kraftvoll entering the infirmary.

"Yes. There is a big gap between Glothion and my seishin cultivations so I was able to easily overpowered him in a battle," explained Kraftvoll.

"Are you okay?" Kraftvoll worriedly asked.

"Yes. I was just slightly injured when I fell because of the Wind Blast. It did not directly hit me but it blew me away to the walls. Your girlfriend is scary!" said Godwin with an embarrassed face.

Kraftvoll got flustered again and said, "She's not my girlfriend!"

Godwin chuckled when he saw Kraftvoll's flustered face.

Kraftvoll coughed and continued talking, "By the way, you lost because you underestimated her. Didn't you see her battle prowess when she fought with Prince Aragorn this last weekend? I have known her for a long time now and if we ever fight, I would never underestimate her."

"Yeah. Yeah. You two are gonna be fighting in the next round. Is this gonna be your first battle with her?" asked Godwin.

"Oh yeah. This is gonna be our first battle against each other," said Kraftvoll in response.

"You know each other for a long time, right? How come the two of you did not spar against each other even for a single time?" Godwin wondered.

"You see, back in our homeland, Schild City, I always train under Sir Stark on weekdays. There was one time that I accompanied them to hunt seishin beasts in the natural border of the Schild City territory." Kraftvoll smilingly said to Godwin as he reminisced the past.

His face suddenly changed when he remembered the disaster that happened on that very day when he first hunted his seishin beast.

Godwin's eyes sparkled after hearing that Kraftvoll already hunted a seishin beast. "Wow! You have already hunted a seishin beast!? What type of beast is it? Is it a seishin beast that has the lineage of the divine beast?"

"Unfortunately, no. It's just a lion that developed a seishin core but it was so vicious! Sir Stark instructed me to defeat it on my own! Fortunately, it was not that strong so I was able to defeat it on my own. I always kept its seishin stone with me. Here it is." said Kraftvoll as he brought a little box out of his pocket.

He opened the box and inside it was a green seishin core that he hunted on the very day when the Dark Alliance attacked Schild City. Godwin's eyes sparkled even more after seeing the seishin beast core.

"This is so awesome! This is a level two seishin beast core, right?" he said out of amazement at the sight of the green seishin core.

"Yes. I've been keeping it here ever since that day. Even though it contains seishin essences that are beneficial to seishin cultivation, I did not absorb it ever since that day because it serves as the memento of the first seishin beast that I defeated." said Kraftvoll.
