The Lone Hero's
Ch.7 - Train Tanding

While on the way, the people who saw Alucard walking side by side with Silvana, were curious about the young man.

The young man looked ordinary, there was nothing special about him, even the clothes worn were just plain clothes like a patient.

They wanted to know about the young man yet they did not dare to ask. Servants and warriors like them would be very impolite to ask a princess about personal matters.

So they just kept quiet, harbored their curiosity and just bowed respectfully as they passed Silvana's daughter.

They now arrived at a large visible place, the field area there was used by the soldiers who were training.

“Good afternoon princess, is there anything the princess needs on the training page?” a man approached Silvana and Alucard.

“Yes, I want to train a match with Alucard, the young man next to me,” Silvana turned towards Alucard beside him.

The man who was the manager of the training page turned to Alucard, looking at the young man from top to bottom.

“Mr daughter, she is still very young so please don't be too rough on her.”

Alucard was quite confused to understand the meaning of the man's words. Does he mean he can be beaten by Silvana?

“Haha, I know my limits,” Silvana chuckles.

“Alright then princess follow me, I will take you to the training page that is empty.”

While walking, Alucard looked at the soldiers who were training in the arena. Each training page has several arenas that are used to practice the match.

The young man noticed how to fight those soldiers. They played weapons very slickly and powerfully, their every move carrying a violent force.

This is the first time Alucard has seen such a fight.

“We have arrived, it happens that this training page is still empty, so the princess can use it at will,” the man bowed, “then I excuse you princess, please, there are a few things I have to take care of.”

Silvana nodded slowly in response.

Alucard saw a training page that only had one arena covering 20×10 meters.

On the outskirts of the courtyard were many weaponry and other equipment such as armor.

“Ayo Alucard!” Silvana walked towards the armament.

“Choose the weapon you will use first!” Silvana picked up a spear, “are you interested in using a spear?”

“No, I think it's better to use a sword,” Alucard took the sword he used himself.

Alucard chose a sword that was quite large and long.

“This is my first time holding a real weapon, it feels a little different from the wooden sword I used to use back in the village,” Alucard muttered softly.

Although Alucard had used a weapon to kill demons before, he did not remember it at all.

“Princess Silvana, are you going to fight in a dress like that?”

“Of course not,” Silvana suddenly stomped the spear in his hand.

Instantly a surge of energy enveloped Silvana's body, her dress slowly disappeared from above, changing into tight clothing. In less than 1 minute, Silvana had already changed from a dress to a tight outfit with light armor covering her arms and chest.

“You yourself will only use a sword? Don't want to use armor?” Silvana asked, “at least use chest armor because accidents can not be avoided even though only match train because we use real weapons. You could be seriously injured if you don't use armor!”

“Alright, I will use arm and chest armor,” Alucard take left arm and chest armor then install it.

But unfortunately Alucard who does not know anything about this kind of equipment does not know how to use it.

Silvana chuckled small, looking at Alucard who had difficulty installing the armor he thought was very funny.

“Let me help,” Silvana help Alucard install the armor, “well done, let's go up the arena!”

Silvana jumped up the arena followed by Alucard, they took a distance of several meters with their respective weapons.

“Then Alucard, you can attack first!” Silvana put up the horses.

“No, you attack first,” Alucard does not want to attack first, what he will fight is Silvana.

“Alright then, get ready!”

Silvana immediately shot forward, his movements were very fast and unexpected making Alucard surprised because Silvana was already in front of him.

Alucard reflexes stepped back, a large gap clearly visible in his movements.

Silvana kicked Alucard's leg, causing the young man to fall. He then turned his spear eyes to face Alucard.

With one move, Alucard had already been dropped and instantly lost.

“Remember to never underestimate your opponents. Before starting the fight you must prepare sturdy horses, never let your guard down because you can die at any time if faced with an actual enemy!” Silvana smiled faintly then stepped back.

Alucard is back on his feet, “from called match train I think this is more appropriate called a special exercise for me. Isn't that your real intention?”

Alucard realized that Silvana's intention to take him under the pretext of match training was to train him to fight. Alucard felt very silly because he had to be trained by a woman.

Silvana just smiled in response, “we go, now put on your horses and prepare yourself!”

Silvana again attacked, Alucard immediately put up the horses and welcomed Silvana's attack.

Alucard's movements were very rigid, many gaps in every move he made. Although the energy he put out was stronger than Silvana, but his minimal skills made him tired quickly.

Alucard's body was already extremely strong, his physical strength was also unquestionable, as was the Mana energy within his body. It was just that everything he had that he could not use to the fullest because he did not have any fighting experience.

So doing a fight against Silvana could give Alucard a valuable lesson.

Alucard believes everything needs a process, so this is the first step for him to explore the power that can eradicate demons.

***

4 Hours later.

Alucard and Silvana continued to do the exercises for 4 hours without rest. Alucard was already panting, sweat soaking his body and clothes.

While Silvana himself was still mediocre, as if not exhausted in the slightest. Now Alucard can understand the difference between himself and the girl.

“You've improved quite a lot Alucard. Though only practicing for 4 hours but now you can compensate me,” Silvana was quite amazed by the development of Alucard's ability.

“Yes, I can indeed keep up with you but on a scale of strength that may be below 50% only. I'm obviously still a long way away when compared to you,” Alucard is still setting his breath.

“Alright, I think it's done first until here tomorrow we will continue training!”

“Of course, but let me set my breath in a moment,”
