Chapter 296 : Maxim witnesses the power of a hybrid

The elven lord was directed to the royal training grounds when he arrived at the royal palace. He could hear the clanging and clicking of swords getting louder and louder the closer they approached the grounds, and it got Maxim wondering.

"Is that the princess I hear?" He asked the guard who had been sent to fetch him.

"Yes it is," the man responded proudly. He seemed to be very pleased with the fact that the princess was a skilled swordsman, which Maxim found rather odd considering how it was unheard of for women to wield weapons for anything other than self defense. "She is one of the most skilled swordsmen in Gavaria," the guard added on, a broad smile on his face. "If women could be knighted, she would have probably been second in rank considering her abilities."

"Second in the capital?" Maxim inquired further.
