The level of a sword genius?

POV: Daemon

Is she going to take me as her disciple in this timeline again? No point in thinking about it. There's nothing I can do. Lost in thought, weighed down by muscle fatigue, I dozed off despite myself.

"Is the lesson boring for Lord Indivar?"

An annoyed voice jolted me brutally from my stupor.

All the students were staring at me, but especially Luxia, her gaze sparkling with irritation I didn't understand.

"No, please continue. The lesson is certainly fascinating… for novices." I waved my hand dismissively.

"Oh? In that case, why not give us a demonstration, sword genius?"

"Huh?"

"Come up on stage. A sparring match. I'm sure everyone would love to see the Blood Lotus swordsmanship in action."

Shit.

What to do? Refusing would be suspicious. But if I go up there… I'll get humiliated.

No time to think.
