The Tales of Draconic Warlock

Chapter 71: My training with Angela (2)

Like on earth, there are seven days a week here on Ragos. There are twelve months too but the difference is that there are only 336 days in a year, making 28 days per month.

The first day is when we have to attend the class held by Angela Blazewood. This would be when we can enter the elite training facility that is indoors. The other five classes would follow us in the same manner.

Only on the seventh day would it be free to use by all. This day is a free day for everyone. There would be no classes held on this day.

When I asked Angela to train me in Hand combat, she decided to teach me this day, which is the fifth day of the week. The class would be held weekly on that day unless she says otherwise. This was what she said to my clone on the second day.

When I arrived at the pre-arranged place, I only saw her. The room was not big but it was enough for a person to train, similar in model to the personal training room that I have in my quarters. The only difference was that this room was much more advanced and sophisticated in comparison to mine.

This probably is Angela's personal training room.

We top students have our own, so why can't the staff?

They have to be fit in order to teach us. Moreover, they always want to improve themselves, even if they settle down to teaching. This doesn't mean that they have retired from improving themselves anymore.

As I entered the room, I saw Angela practicing with a sandbag. I have no idea what she was doing with that. She is already too powerful to slap away that but everyone has their own routines.

The main thing was that she was wearing sexy sportswear. Except for the important areas, everything else was exposed. This is good. If I can get the chance to get my hands on her, this type of dress would provide the best way of skin contact.

After all if I want to ignite lustful thoughts in her mind about me, skin contact is a must. Without that, it would take a long time.

To make sure that the first session would not turn into an awkward session, I pulled out my mind from other thoughts and approacher her to greet her.

Before I could, she greeted me, "Ah, you are right on time. Good we can start your training".

"First, you are a Warlock, and that means your attacks would be spells that would be launched from a distance. So usually, you don't need to be afraid of the enemies as long as they are solved. The problem arises in certain conditions".

"One was that the opponent was also a spell caster. As long as you have magic resistance to his attacks and he doesn't to your attacks, you can solve this problem. With long-range attacks, there are professionals who would hurt their enemies using physical attacks. As long as you can cast a shield that blocks those attacks it would be fine".

"I know that you should already have an idea about this but just in case I am reminding you again. This was because the magic defense is not as simple as putting up a physical shield", she said.

"What do you mean by that, teacher?" I asked curiously, though I had an idea what she just said.

"When facing a magic attack, you as a spellcaster would use a magic shield to protect yourself but what shield would you conjure?" she asked.

"Hmm, from the books that I read, it was said that an Arcane shield is the best way to survive a magic attack", I said.

"You were right and wrong at the same time", she said.

Seeing my confused and frowned face, she chuckled, "You are right because, the arcane shield would protect you no matter the magic attack but at the same time it won't you completely, unless your skill is way higher than your opponent".

"For example, if your opponent casts a Fire attack spell at you, then a Water or Ice shield would be the best to offset that attack in comparison to others. If you use Wind shield, it would end up much worse than it should be".

"Wind and Fire are best friends. They won't offset each other, rather they would cause much bigger problems. So you have to find an element shield that can offset the other element, but that would be difficult. It was not easy to learn all elemental shields and improve them. So it was advised to learn Arcane Shield, which offsets every magic attack to an extent", she said.

I nodded in understanding. It was true that certain elements would need another certain element to stop it. if you use a wrong element, it would do nothing which is the best case scenario, or make it worse, which is the worst case scenario.

"Okay, you should learn about these from the books available in the library. Now let's actually discuss what you are here for"

"You have Staff Arts and it is already at the Intermediate stage. I think that's more than enough for you but sometimes there won't be any weapons available. So you have to turn your own body into a weapon. For that, you need to learn some type of body arts".

"To make sure that you survive in any confrontation was that you have good defense and mobility. As you are not a physical profession, I decided that it was best that you learn some Movement Arts rather than Defence Art".

"I will show some defense moves but they are actual defence moves. Remember that in mind".

"Keep your hands up, like this", she showed me how to properly defend myself with my hands.

The class is now in session.

Though I am disappointed that there would be only a few basic defense moves, while most of our classes would concentarte on movement, it wasn't a total failure. I got some eye candy and more that, she was willing to appear in such a way in front of me.

I don't think that she would appear infront of other students in such a way.

It is a small win for now. Slowly and steadily, I would earn a big win for myself.
