"Wow." Alia was stunned. "How did you know?"
She was not that surprised to see Arnold kept on winning. Aside from her brother, who was simply a bug level existence, no one among them seed to be able to beat him.
But Alia was more surprised that Riya could tell that Ruben's mana is exhausted.
"Because his movent has beco sluggish… The difference is faint and if you're not paying attention, you might not be able to see it. But when your mana is about to be exhausted, your speed of gathering mana to use your magic spells will decrease." Riya though for a mont before adding, "The difference is like 0,01 seconds, though."
Alia: "…"
How the hell should she see it?
Seeing Alia's speechless look, Riya just chuckled.
To be honest when Riya first learned about this from the temporary ntor in that world, she also had the look of disbelief. After all, the difference was fleeting and it was impossible for them to notice it.
But he taught her that it was not impossible.
With their improvent in ranks, their perception of mana would beco higher. At that ti, they only needed to pay attention to the mana fluctuation of their opponent and they would be able to figure out their state.
This was a common knowledge in that world.
And Riya also used this thod to gauge her opponent's strength. Naturally, she would try to detect it when other people were fighting before doing it herself.
Because Riya knew very well that there were many powerful people out there and her own perception might not be correct. She had a lot of trial and errors before she could grasp people's mana fluctuation easily.
Now, even if she didn't pay attention deliberately, she could still notice the mana fluctuation of her opponent.
"You can try to study other people's mana fluctuation from ti to ti," Riya said. "It's not easy in the beginning, but as you got used to it, it'll beco a valuable experience for you."
Especially if the world beco even more chaotic in the future.
Riya knew the importance of personal strength very well. If she was not strong, she would have died many tis over in that world. But once she beca powerful, they were the ones who had to shrink back and not co forward to her anymore. Explore hidden tales at My Virtual Library Empire
Because they knew that they couldn't afford it.
"Ok." Alia felt that this was very difficult as it would required her to train her perception.
But since Riya said that she should learn this, then Alia will try.
She just sighed in her heart that there were so many things that she had to do.
"Alia, you're up against Arnold next," Samuel said as he saw Arnold had almost recovered his mana. A magic warrior's mana was not that much and Arnold didn't really rely on mana during his battle. So as long as his stamina was more or less recovered, Arnold would be ready for the next battle.
"Eh? ?" Alia stood up with pout. "Brother, are you purposely seeking my defeat?"
"Sean had already fought against Arnold, so it's your turn now."
Sean, who was staying with his girlfriend quietly: "…" Why did you have to use as example?
He really felt that his older brother was unkind.
There was no need to ntion that he lost against Arnold, right?
"Co on." Arnold smiled when he saw Alia looking in his direction.
"Yes, Brother Arnold!"
Riya, who saw Alia turned energetic all of the sudden: "…"
The power of love is really amazing.
She had to say that she had no doubt that if Arnold were to hook his finger, Alia would rush over without hesitation. Her IQ had turned completely negative when she was facing Arnold.
Swish! Clang!
Alia used sword and Arnold use knife, so the two of them imdiately started attacking. Despite the fact that Alia's rank was actually one sub rank lower than Arnold, the two of them looked like they were on par.
"Huh? Did he release the water for her?" Sean, who saw this situation, was speechless.
He also used sword when he fought against Arnold, but the mont the first strike was made, he staggered back. It was really embarrassing for Sean.
To be honest, in terms of real combat, Sean and Joan were really placed at the very bottom.
Of course, this was if Joan was not allowed to use guns.
If she was allowed to, then Sean would have the last place's throne without doubts.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
"No." Riya shook her head and looked at Alia thoughtfully. "Her talent in battle is really good."
If Alia was not so lazy, Riya was sure that Alia's achievent would be far more than her current rank. But because she has a family that supported her and then a big brother who could lead the way, Alia beca lazy.
Well, her position did allow that.
But it would not be good for her future, which was why Samuel was really strict to his sister and his parents let him do that.
They knew that Alia's personality made it difficult for her to be serious all the ti.
But her talent is really good.
"It's good?" Sean asked with so disapproval.
Riya nodded.
She could see that Alia kept on adjusting her posture to be able to attack Arnold better. And even though these adjustnt was very minor, they would achieve great effect when facing an opponent who was stronger than her.
It seed that Alia was the type of person who grow stronger faster in a real combat rather than practicing.
But she didn't seem to like either of them.
Moreover, without strong foundation, it would be impossible for Alia to last long in a real combat. So she still has to train a lot.
As for how high Alia's talent is, Riya didn't know.
She was not really good at judging people's physical talent. If it was magic talent, then that would be another question altogether.
