ASURA CLAN 2

So... What should I say, I mean where do I start from should I begin from how crushed I felt when he said that I wasn't picked because they wanted to give me a better life or that I had partially believed the Duchess and now I was broken. But that's a lie I knew that it was too good to be true and to be honest I was kind of expecting this.

The rest of the dinner was very awkward at least to me, he told me I would start my training tomorrow, it would comprise of history and other general studies in the morning which for some reason all nobles were expected to know, warrior training in the after and magic training in the evening. This was going to be my life for the next six months.

But knowing myself I asked a lot about this "UNITED COLLEGE OF THE MYSTICAL ARTS" yah right what a snobbish name. But I guess it deserved such a name because from what am told it's the best magic school in the entire country, "even the royal family goes there" - "." so every thousands of students apply and they only accept 500 so my chances of getting in was not so good but I would have to get in because if not and I quote "I will make your life a living hell" He wasn't smiling when he said that.

Morning came faster than I expected and my general studies class went extremely well, my teacher was a middle aged woman with a sweet comfortable smile and I have always been good at learning this especially books; I love books. So u can imagine how excited I was for the warrior training considering how good my general studies class was. Little did I know what I was getting my self into.

The training Arena was a large piece of land with beautiful carpet grass which was trimmed nicely. Like every arena there was an elevated platform which surrounded it with rows and rows of chairs. Standing in the middle was a young man who was short wearing a pair of baggy trousers and a plain shirt which had "I LOVE YOU" embroidered on it with blue thread. He had dirty blonde hair and green eyes. He didn't look like what I expected and just felt like your everyday person. Maria (later found out my personal maid's name) left me there without even a goodbye and literally dashed out of here.

I walked to my trainer and gave him a warm greeting with low bow, I felt self conscious in my training outfit as he scrutinized me with a piercing gaze. " my name is Mr Jake Raymond and that's master to you, you look like a pack of skin and bones forcefully brought together. Wonderful! I got my work caught out for me, first you need to build some muscle" he offered me a tiny bottle with a look that said "drink and don't ask questions".

It went down hill from there. I didn't even have time to comprehend his harsh words before I was wearing magical bracelets (which by the way were absolutely beautiful) which served as weights, I could hardly move my body when he told me to do 1000 laps around the huge arena, because apparently he loves watching people run. I was about to say no but I remembered lord Lucas and sucked it up.

Four hours!! Four hours!! It took me four hours to complete the laps. But like a wise man once said "the reward for hard work is more work". Turns out that he was also my magic trainer which lend to another six hours of controlling water wind and lightning at the same time!! I felt like a bag of bones by the time I got to my room and fainted immediately on my bed. To be honest my biggest surprise was that my body could actually do all that.

SIX MONTHS LATER.

Large turrents of flames came at me from every angel if it was me six months ago I would have given up and prayed to the gods that I made heaven. But I am different now, six months of heart wrenching can do that to you, I almost gave up many times but I decided to prove lord Lucas wrong I was Asura clan material and today I was going to show him. I raised up an ice wall and casted lightning bolts from the sky towards my aggressor. Boosting my speed with the wind I casted some weapons made of ice, grasping a short sword I was off, I wasn't backing down today...
