~Chapter 3: Talent Classes~

As time flies by with their subjects, it was finally time for their real class to start. Those at Elrios Academy are genuises with talents that no one can compare to.

Eve who was born in Altera has talent in advanced technology along with their natural intelligence and wisdom. Chung from Hamel, similar to Eve, he has talent in advanced technology because of his family's ability to use advanced weapons and armor. Elsword of the Red Knights had his brute strength, along with his master swordsmanship. Rena of the Night Savers had their agility, swords, and of course their bow and arrows. Raven of the Crow Mercency Knights had their own talent in advanced technology and skills in swordsmanship.

Aisha smiled as she can finally start her class with her talent: Magic. Magic is complicated, yet elegant. Aisha of the Elemental Masters, one of the most talented in controlling the four elements in nature. Elemental Masters can harness the power of the four elements of nature and control it as their hands and legs.

"Raven! You must not skip class today! Remember our deal?!"

"Tch... Yeah, yeah.. Whatever. It's not like i'm going to skip my talent class."

She smiled at Raven who had walked away, carrying his bad over his shoulder with Elsword following behind with a cold face. Aisha stared at Elsword for a moment before looking at one of her classmates who complained that magic was a hard class.

'Using magic isn't so complicated.. People never really liked magic since they were to difficult to use. They preferred using weapons. What's so good about weapons.. All they can do is harm others.. But then magic is similar in a way...'

She sighed and prepared for her class for magicians. While she went to her class, Chung and Eve were deciding on which wire that holds a certain element of nature in order to create a new system that could use an element.

"Chung, don't you think this el shard goes to the red section of the core..? After all, if you join them together, the element of ice will appear and then they will convert into another element."

"Yeah, but it could also be the blue..."

Eve couldn't help, but sigh, thinking of elements. This is the class for advanced technology, creating artificial things. Nasods were a system that could be used for good and evil, and advanced technology was what created them. Nasods could use elements by putting in the el shards inside the core.

'If it was like those guardians, Ignis and Leviathan back in Altera.. Ignis uses fire... Leviathan uses ice... Maybe...'

Eve's eyes grew slightly wider, as she began to solve the puzzle. She began to mix the el shards up and placed each shards inside the core that made it seem like it was completely random. As soon as she placed the finishing touch, the core began to shine the colors of blue and red.

"Resistance to the opposite element, and the strength of the element that its using will gradually increase as long as the opposite element is beside it..."

Chung's eyes had a suprised look in them, before he smiled and hugged Eve as she solved the element puzzle. Now they needed to create a new form of the Nasod in front of them, a form that isn't easy to manipulate. Eve began to grab wires, screws, nails, scraps of metal, and a small bottle of oil and started inventing while Chung watched in astonishment.

While that's going on in advanced technology, Elsword, Rena, and Raven were in swordsmanship class. Rena knew that Elsword and Raven were masters in swordsmanship, so attending swordsmanship class with them is a great lesson.

Today, they'll be sparring against each other as warm up, before another of the class's surprise starts. Elsword VS Raven. Rena VS Chloe. Rena had some difficulties fighting against Chloe, but eventually, she won as she used "Karma" and the blades of wind slashes Chloe, ending the battle. Rena finished the battle just in time to see Elsword and Raven's battle.

Elsword glared at Raven, earning him a glare from Raven. They raised their blades and at the start of a gunshot, Elsword disappeared. Raven closed his eyes before swinging his blade to the right, and his blade clashed against Elsword's.

Raven's eyes glowed, and the look on his face resembles a wild animal. He took one step and disappeared in a flash, appearing behind Elsword. As Elsword realizes that Raven is behind him, he had already got slashed by Raven multiple times.

"One flash..."

Elsword recovered from Raven's attack, and attacked with his own. Elsword's eyes grew wild and he dashed towards Raven. As he dashed towards Raven, three swords appeared behind him or "Cornwells" dashed along, flying towards Raven. Raven tried to block them, but however Elsword slashed his stomach without hesitation.

"Mirage Sting."

Rena watched in astonishment as Elsword and Raven continue on clashing their blades. She could tell that they were not even serious in this battle. If they were serious, they would have started with stronger attacks than "One Flash" and "Mirage Sting".

'They're amazing.. They're able to fight each other on equal ground. "One Flash" and "Mirage Sting" may seem like weak attacks, but they're strong enough to injure someone seriously. Everyone in the school can fight.. Fighting is never a good thing, but we have to learn how to fight to protect ourselves and fight for our kingdom...'

"Final Strike!"

Elsword's blade glowed as he dashed forward towards Raven who realized Elsword's intention. Raven smirked darkly as he held his blade up and dashed forward towards Elsword.

"Hypersonic Stab!"

Elsword slashed at Raven and opened a black hole to hold him down, however at the same time, Raven unleashes a fury of slashes. Their attacks clashed and created an explosion, covering the whole training ground.

As the smoke clears away, Elsword and Raven were standing there, unharmed. They raised their blades once again, but then the bell had to ring, indicating that it's time for all of the classes to join together and battle. Soon, the whole training ground was filled with other students, dressed in their armor and armed with their weapons.

Ara, holding a spear in her hands, smiled brightly as she waited for the moment for her to use some of her new skills. Ara Haan of Fahrmann, the Haan family was known for protecting the seal of the Gumiho for many generations. She can't wait for the opponent that she would be fighting against.

'Hmm... Who's going to be my opponent? Eve? If it's Eve, i've got to be careful of her drones and her electron balls. Not only that, i need to avoid her if she uses any laser spears..It'll be bad if she uses "Energetic Heart" and use "Particle Ray" or "Generate Black Hole"... Chung... He's no better than Eve... "Carpet Bombing" or maybe "Lunatic Blow" or "Detonation"... Elsword.. Raven... If Elsword uses either "Final Strike" or "Rage Cutter", i'm toast. "Hypersonic Stab", or "Shockwave" from Raven is not making things easy.. Rena's "Karma" and "Evoke" will be hard to dodge.. Aisha.. Maybe i have a chance to beat her, but then she might use "Meteor Shower", "Cyclone", "Blizzard Shower" or "Infernal Wave".. No one's an opponent easy to beat.'

"Eve, if we're up against each other, don't go easy on me!"

"Same goes for you, Chung..."

Eve's eyes glowed and the drones beside her, Moby and Remy made a soft noise to show that they're not going to go easy on Chung either. Chung smiled softly before grabbing Eve's hand, pulling her towards him and hugged her as tightly as he can. He leaned forward and kisses her forehead.

"Good luck..."

'Truthfully... I don't want you to join in these battles, but we have to.. If we do end up facing each other, we'll have to fight as Altera and Hamel. I don't want that.. I'd rather embrace you and see your smile. I'll protect you somehow...'

~Author's Note~

Yes! I finished this chapter before 10:00PM! :D I'm so proud of myself... :) I can write one chapter a day, but then, my laziness gets in the way like always, making it half of a chapter a day...

In this chapter, i wanted to focus on mainly battling, so you'll be seeing many of our beloved characters' skills. I had to research all of the characters' skills since i don't know how Elsword, Raven, and Aisha's skills work. I have an Eve on the game, however, she's a Code Nemesis, so i couldn't use her skills, so i had to research Code Battle Seraph.. Chung.. I have a Deadly Chaser, so i can't use my favorite skill "Shooting Star", but oh well... Tactical Trooper is good enough... Rena.. I have a Trapping Ranger, yay, but i'm not familiar with the skills.

I'm sorry for the lack of Aisha and Ara.. Aisha will be one of the main stars for next chapter along with another of beloved character.. Guess who? :D

Here are Aisha and Ara's Classes:

Aisha: Elemental Master(16)

Ara: Sakra Devanam(16)
