Meeting with the Vice-Headmaster [1]

[Please select the difficulty level]

I tapped at the panel hovering in front of me.

Presently, I was training in the training room.

[Lvl 11 difficulty selected]

The ground in front of me opened, and a mechanical spider popped out.

"It's coming."

My body tensed up as the machine came toward me, but it didn't do anything more than that. It stopped just before getting to me.

This wasn't its attack range. 

Two swords appeared behind me.

A mechanical spider moved around me.

And now, it was about to start.

One sword swished through the air like wind chimes.

The spider moved, swinging its front two legs at the sword.

Clang-!

It blocked my attack.

Without a moment's delay, it rushed at me, seemingly trying to skew me alive.

But I had already anticipated how it would move.

Thrusting my right hand out, I stabbed the sword into the robot's head.

"[Pierce]"

Krch-!
