Surprise and curiosity were the feelings that invaded Riana when she discovered that Gray was the one who was calling her.

[Oh, and now that, this guy will have something against me] Riana thought before answering. "Yes, what happened, is that sometimes, I get distracted by my thoughts.

"I want you to show me, magical arrangements."

"Wait, how? But if you see the classes for that, besides, it seems that you did well or I was wrong?"

"Is that what classes are for? Says the one who had prepared an arrangement for our fight, and of course I understood who you think I am.

"Okay ... but if you say you got it, then why and why me."

"Simple what you learn in class alone is a fragment of what one can learn alone, but the importance of the quality of the information is not taken away in those few hours."

"But if you say that, just practice alone, as I do."

"I thought so, but I know how effective it can be for someone to guide you."

"And that someone is not me?"

"Exactly, I knew you were smart."

"Hey!" Riana complained, then continued after a pause, "But then, why me? Can't you hire someone?"

"It's an unnecessary expense for a little relevant subject in my life plan, and it's you because I pay a little attention to the others and it seems to me that no one is on your heels, I wonder what level you will be on.

"But if you say that unnecessary, then why."

"To be better, obvious, I only see advantages when learning this, now enough buts, you are going to teach me, yes or no?"

When he said this, it only took Riana 3 seconds to meditate, to respond.

"No, I'm sorry ... I don't see the reason," Riana said, swallowing the fear caused by refusing the other person.

"Umm right, incentive, so how about a monetary payment, that's fine."

Hearing that Riana and knowing that he was a noble, I hesitate a bit before answering.

"I think not, it would be good for me, but, I prefer to use my spare time in studying or practicing —said Riena who in his mind added— [Besides, I don't know you and you're scary.]

"Umm I see, what to do, ah I know, how about in addition to the payment, I teach you how to fight, as I said, what you learn in classes is only a fraction, and it seems to me that you are very wrong in hand-to-hand combat , besides that I already know this martial art, I see that matter only as a complement and practice.

This offer, this time put Riana seriously in doubt. "Damn, this one doesn't get tired, but you have to see, what it says is tempting, let's focus, think about the now and the future path if I continue as I am, umm, Damn ... I don't see why not ..., but there is the practice with Arthur, what time will I have ..., ummm what to do, it will be good if I thought about it. "

"Look, it seems good to me, but a problem occurs, I will be studying after class with some friends, the hours that I have free before they leave, are now 2 hours, tomorrow an hour before going to work and on Friday one hour after hand-to-hand combat."

"Umm and weekend ?."

"Too."

"Are you practicing for the tournament?"

"Yeah, uh wait, what? How did you know?"

"You just told me, and a simple deduction if you know who Sylvia and Arthur are and who they are with."

"You were spying on me," Riana said as a chill went through her.

"Don't believe yourself much, I also go to the tournament and I need to check my opponents."

"But then..."

"But, buts, you are difficult to be so weak, look at it from a profit point, you can study my techniques or something, totally not even if we were going to teach you something useful for the tournament, but total, you will see if you get gossip. Are you okay with this?"

"Yes ... but what about the time" Riana said after thinking a bit

"I don't think they practiced every day, it's bad for the body, do they already have a schedule or something?"

"Not yet."

"Well, check the schedule well and tomorrow you tell me your available time, while how about we go for the hours you said today and tomorrow, well now that I think about it, being this theoretical, I don't think it consumes much time, we'll see, So we have a deal?"

"Okay, yes..."

"Well, perfect, let's start once and for all, about how much I am going to pay you, first we will see how you are teaching how you are."

"Okay, let's go then."

And with that said, they were both learning from each other, until the promised hours had passed and they both had to retire to their respective affairs, with Riana waiting in the courtyard for her friends.

[Damn ... I feel like a failure, it cost me to learn this basic theory, and he comes and grasps everything as if nothing, also made an arrangement as if nothing, At least, I learned something about combat, and above all, It is going to pay me well, with this I will be able to buy some books or tools for arrangements ]Riana thought and thought to pass the time until, after a short time, her friends appeared.

"Hello Riana, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting, but it's complicated with our schedules," said Arthur.

"Don't apologize, rather she should be grateful for her time and use it to practice, which from what I see she did," Sylvia said.

"No problems, and how about sorcery?

"It was excellent," said Arthur positively.

"Bored, I know everything you're giving," Sylvia said.

"Then, so that the time ..., if, perhaps it is like me ..." - Riana said to himself in his mind.

"Well ..." Riana started looking for a conversation, but Sylvia interrupted her.

"Enough talking, let's go somewhere to practice."

And then Riana and Arthur looking at her, with an ironic smile of 'what is going to be done with her', without extending further greetings went with her to one of the many combat fields that the institute has, which had a vigilante and were working until the end of the school day.

Being already inside, in the middle of the field and ready, Sylvia started saying.

"Let's start with the basics, get to know each other, so we will each demonstrate, Riana, your first since we hardly know anything about what you can offer in combat and this will also serve to test you, someone against you?" Sylvia starting to organize the practice.

"No," said Arthur.

"I see it fair," said Riana.

"Well, start then, show us what you can do little reindeer," Sylvia said.

"Okay, but I warn you that it will take a while," Riana said.

"Just start and go," Sylvia demanded.

"Hey, don't push yourself Sylvia, be calm," Arthur suggested.

"Well there I go," said Riana.

After saying that, she concentrating began to circulate her mana throughout her body, forming intricate patterns in him.
