"All the weapons you want to choose are all here. Now stand in front of the desired weapon you want to yield. Be reminded that the weapon you'll be choosing will not be changed. You can change your weapon again after 10 months."
I was amazed as I stared at the weapons neatly arranged in a long table in front of us. There are weapons in every category. lee, ranged, explosive, and specialized weapons. You na it, they got it.
"Just to be sure this weapon that we'll be giving you is for training purposes only but don't look down on them too much since one weapon costs about 5 million glacium." [1]
The students exchanged surprised glances. Are training weapons worth that much? It seed unbelievable. But they knew better than to question their instructor's words.
One by one, students started to step forward to choose their own. Out of all the 200 students, 160 picked the most common weapon which are the sword, spear, and bow otherwise known as 'The Blessed Tridentes'.[2]
I watched as Cypher and Edge stood in front of the sword and spear respectively while Ezekiel Owen chose the katana, redith Cortez chose the dress sword and Whitney Owen chose the whip.
"Remillia Lockhart? Have you chosen your weapon?" The instructor asked.
Noticing that I was the only one left, I just stared at the table full of weapons. To others, it may seem like I have no respect to the instructor but deep inside , I was panicking. I can't think straight, I can't even answer him.
I don't know how to use these weapons. I don't know what kind of weapon Remillia uses or if she's good at hand to hand combat.
My gaze flickering over the assortnt of blades, axes, and lees , I spotted sothing else.
In my world, this is the closest thing I know as a weapon. Even though I don't know how to use it, I can just practice it later. However, in this world, this weapon is considered as the weakest of all the history of weapons. None of the Heroes use this, not even my classmates glanced at it.
"Ms. Lockhart." The instructor's voice cut through the silence, urging her to make her choice now.
So of my classmates including the two MC's turned to watch at .
In the end, my body automatically began to move towards the weaponry table as my instinct guided my hand, drawing towards the one weapon I only knew.
I finally reached out and grasped the dagger, it felt light as a feather, and comforting in her grip. It was a choice born not of skill or strategy, but of necessity and survival.
