Transmigrated as a Ghost

Chapter 393 - Training With Mrazivý

With his status now sorted out, Marcus entered the training grounds and found Mrazivý already working on using her chantless magic. 

"Mraz, I am ready, let us get to it." Marcus said, getting Mrazivý's attention as she was about to fire off a tier five glacial lance.

However, instead of firing it off into the distance like she planned, she aimed it right at Marcus and fired.

Seeing this Marcus was definitely caught off guard, especially because her spell was much faster and stronger than it had been before.

Still Marcus did not back down, and summoning his scythe, cut the tier five spell straight in half.

"That was a good try, but you are not going to catch me off guard with such a straightforward sneak attack." 

"Oh, that was not a sneak attack, just a greeting to make sure that you were on your toes." Mrazivý said while smirking.

Yet as her eyes focused on Marcus' new scythe, a look of disbelief came over her and she ran right up to him to get a better look at his phenomenal new weapon.

"Wow did you really make this?"

"Yep, it was not easy, but I got a bit lucky, and a little unlucky with making this scythe." Marcus said with a proud smile.

Hearing this Mrazivý gave Marcus a confused look wondering how it could be unlucky to make a system recognized weapon.

Seeing the perplexed expression Mrazivý had, Marcus explained to her what had happened.

"I see, so you made something called a soul bound weapon. Well, I have not heard anything about them, but I will keep it a secret like you asked." Mrazivý said after listening to Marcus' explanation.

After that the two of them began practicing their respective skills, each learning how to better control their massively increased strength.

Still as strong as she had become with her new unique skill, Mrazivý was having difficulty keeping up with Marcus, who was a league stronger than her.

'Raging Blizzard'

'Fire Storm.'

As Mrazivý cast her powerful large area of effect spell, Marcus countered with his own, and ice and fire clashed creating a massive cloud of steam.

Nevertheless, even with as powerful as Mrazivý's ice magic spell was, Marcus' fire magic edged her out by just a bit and pushed her spell back.

Mrazivý was not done though, as she rushed in with her sword teeming with mana and wrapped in a powerful cold aura, that would turn most into ice statues.

But for Marcus, it did bother him in the least, as he channeled mana into his scythe and activated the lighting-based enchantments on it to fight against Mrazivý's cold.

The two then met in a flurry of clashes sword against scythe, and for anyone watching it would have looked like a blizzard was fighting against a lightning storm.

"Guh"

Unfortunately, as intense and powerful as Mrazivý was, Marcus was just too strong for her to currently handle. And after they had exchanged blows a few dozen times, Marcus expertly parried Mrazivý's sword, and deliver a swift hit to her gut with the handle of his scythe.

Flying backwards, Mrazivý felt the soreness in her stomach from where Marcus had hit her, but what was really hurting was her powerlessness. 

She had been trying her hardest to get as strong as possible, but she always seemed to be a step behind Marcus.

Even now, after acquiring a new and very powerful unique skill that was perfectly suited for her, she was barely holding her own.

"Apex of Winter."

Using the strongest ability that came with her Winter's Grace Unique skill, Mrazivý entered a temporary state were all of her stats were increased, and she could unleash devastating waves of cold and ice.

In fact, this ability was quite a bit like Marcus' embodiment unique skills, although not quite as powerful and could only be used once a day.

'Frigid Blast.'

Casting another tier five spell, Mrazivý sent out a powerful blast of pure cold that began turning everything in its wake to ice.

'Blazegram's Furnace.'

Conjuring the form of a blazing furnace, Marcus unleashed a jet of raging flames that met Mrazivý's blast of cold head on.

However, this time Mrazivý's attack was the one with greater power behind it and began pushing back Marcus' spell.

Putting up a mana barrier, Marcus deflected the last dregs of power that Mrazivý's spell had after breaking through his own, but he soon found himself on the receiving end of an even more deadly attack.

While their spells had were fighting against each other Mrazivý had quickly moved in, and using her mercurial ice, surrounded Marcus and was closing in with an omni directional attack.

Of course, to evade this Marcus could have easily just gone ethereal and slipped by, but since this was training, he did not want to use such a maneuver since it would not benefit either of them.

"Embodiment of Light."

With Mrazivý's Mercurial Ice closing in all around him, Marcus empowered himself with his Embodiment of Light, and began slashing around rapidly.

He sent out dozens of incredibly quickly slashes and cut through Mrazivý's unique skill that was surrounding him, blowing it away.

Seeing this Mrazivý could only stare in disbelief, as Marcus crushed her best attack, that would leave most in a hopeless situation.

Marcus then fired an impossibly swift laser spell, right past Mrazivý's head, and where it landed a large explosion of light blasted a hole in the training ground.

Understanding what had just happened Mrazivý collapsed to her knees, and the power that was all around her quickly dissipated as she sat there defeated.

Running up to her Marcus crouched down and asked Mrazivý if she was okay, and in return she grabbed ahold of him and buried her head in his chest.

"Why am I so weak? I have tried as hard as I can to get stronger, but I am still weak. I lost to Wyatt in the tournament, and watching you and Quillon, I could not even follow most of what was going on. And now, even after getting this power, you still beat me effortlessly. Why? Why am I not strong enough?"

Hearing the frustration in her voice, Marcus wrapped his arms around Mrazivý and said, "Mraz I know you feel weak, but you are strong. Your drive to get stronger is greater than even mine and comparing yourself to me and Quillon right now is not fair to yourself. Quilon is already evolved and was trained by a great master, while I have received a portion of my power from some outside source thanks to a lucky encounter. And while you may be weaker than either of us now, I know you will catch up soon. I promise I will not leave you behind and that we will both go on a grand adventure and reach the heights of this world together."

Returning his hug, Mrazivý thanked Marcus for his encouragement, and the two of them slowly stood back up, and looked at the carnage of they had created in the training grounds.

It looked as if some one had carpet bombed the area with missiles filled with liquid nitrogen, and both of them felt a bit bad for the people that would have to fix up the training grounds.

"Well, I should at least clean up all this ice." Mrazivý said seeing the frozen field around them.

She then began to absorb the cold towards herself, turning the ice back into liquid, and leaving water that quickly got absorbed back into the ground.

After that the two of them went back to the castle and enjoyed the rest of their last day together before Mrazivý embarked on her next exploration trip.

Of course, they also made time to play with Eis who they had already promised to hang out with, and they spent most of the day entertaining the youngest princess until the late of night.

"Good night Eis, we will be back in the morning to say goodbye, so do not stay up to late." Mrazivý said as they left Eis to go on their way.

The two of them then headed back to Mrazivý's room, and once inside Marcus changed his form from Irene back to himself.

"Oh, are you that eager." Mrazivý asked with a teasing tone seeing how quickly Marcus had changed back.

However, Marcus just shrugged his shoulders and said, "You were the one who so boldly asked me once we had finished training."

Smiling Mrazivý walked up to Marcus and gave him a long passionate kiss before saying, "Well this is going to be our last night together for at least a couple of weeks, so I am not going to let this chance go by."

Taking the initiative this time, Marcus gave Mrazivý a kiss of his own, before picking her up and saying, "Very well then, but do not expect to get much sleep tonight."

Marcus then carried Mrazivý back to her room, and placed her onto her bed, before the two of them indulged in a night of passion.
