Victoria was Valeria's cousin, which ant that if Alia were to give a preferential treatnt towards Victoria, Valeria would definitely jump up and down like a clown. That would definitely be very annoying and Alia couldn't really give other reasons to give such treatnt to Victoria.
Unless Victoria were to co up with sothing precious or important.
But that was for later.
Claire's background was indeed not very bad. But at the sa ti, her financial situation before the current situation was far from enough to buy a mansion in this place. She didn't have any mansion and Alia felt a bit of headache to figure out a reason to let Claire enter the mansion's area.
Resources?
There were people who would definitely bring more resources and it would not be fair to them.
Relationship?
There would definitely be people who would co here and made trouble if Alia were to do that.
Riya fell into silence.
To be honest, Riya herself could also stay in the mansion's area because of her relationship with Alia. Though, her own abilities were more than enough considering that there were no one else in the entire base who could make talisman like her.
For such an important person, the base would be stupid to let her stay in crowded and lower area.
So if soone did co to accuse Riya, there would be explanation.
But others?
Alia was not sure that she would be able to think of an excuse at that ti.
"Let's take it one step at a ti," Riya said and pointed to the backyard. "Shall we have a spar with each other first?"
"Alright." Alia sighed.
They entered the backyard and Riya looked at the tall walls around them. It seed that Samuel had modified this place so that he could train with peace every single day. Otherwise, there would be people who co to him and ask why he carried swords and practiced with it.
At the sa ti, Riya was glad that her training was relatively simple. She only needed to sit and ditate every day.
If she had to co out and train, she would have headache where to pick the place.
After all, Riya was not rich and didn't really have a house on her own. The housing price was really high and the software that Riya made back then could barely cover her expense if she wanted to buy an apartnt.
For anything better, it would be nothing more than a pipe dream.
"Who will start?" Alia asked as she stood a few steps away from RIya.
Riya smiled. "Up to you."
"Are you sure?" Alia narrowed her eyes and then took out her sword out. "It'll be dangerous because I can't control my strength well."
Seeing Alia's serious expressions, Riya felt a faint amusent and warmth. Because she knew that Alia didn't want to hurt her but at the sa ti, she also wanted to see Riya's strength.
"Don't worry." Riya shook her head. "You can't hurt ."
Alia looked at Riya's confident look and smiled faintly. She has been friends with Riya for a long ti and knew how much Riya restrained herself most of the ti. This was because Riya didn't have anyone to help her if she got into trouble and thus, Riya always tried to stay away from troubles.
But when soone provoked her, Riya would make sure the other party paid for it even if the thods she used could be said to be ruthless.
No one protected her, so Riya had to protect herself.
She had to make sure that she was able to protect herself when others wanted to plot against her.
But Riya could be said to be quite lucky.
Neither her father or mother ca looking for her in these years. Even if Ciera ca to make trouble from ti to ti, but she would never dare to cross the lines and only tried to establish her superiority.
Riya was too lazy to deal with that pampered young miss.
And if Alia was present, she would try to help the other party as much as possible.
Now…
Alia could see that Riya seed to be very confident in her own strength. This made her happy as a friend.
"In that case, be careful."
Swish! Slash!
Without hesitation, the sword in Alia's hand was burning with fire and she swung it towards Riya.
Bang!
A faint wind shield appeared in front of Riya. She didn't cast any spell and only lifted her finger slightly, forming runes in front of her. After that, she carefully sensed the power that Alia used with a faint frown.
"You're not using your strength well, Alia."
"Ah?" Alia frowned. "How?"
"Hmm…" Riya wanted to say that Alia was weaker than other rank 1 magic warrior that she had t but her words stuck in her throat. It seed that she had to use other adjectives when evaluating Alia.
"You see, the shield I use is only rank 1 too but you barely consu half of the energy there. In this case, you will need to use three attacks to destroy it and the fourth attack will reach ," Riya said slowly. "If you can increase your attack power, you can destroy it in two attack or even one attack."
She didn't have the highest expectation for Alia's ability but at the very least, she hoped that Alia could be a bit better than ordinary magic warrior. Otherwise, it would be difficult for Alia to protect herself.
If the person standing in front of her was Samuel…
Riya had no doubt that he might be able to destroy the shield in one attack and then proceed the second attack instantly.
"… Is it possible?" Alia looked at the faint shield in front of Riya and took a deep breath. "How about if you try to attack first?"
"Are you sure?" Riya looked at Alia with so doubt. Even if she were to use a rank 1 runes… she was sure that she could kill Alia with ease.
