(A/N: For those who have read the last chapter when it was part of the Privilege, I changed the previous weapon from Sword into shield and spear. As for the current readers who just read this chapter and did not purchase the privilege by the ti I edited the previous chapter, you guys are good to go so no need to worry and proceed to the story. Enjoy!)
The Shield and Spear of the sin of Pride. Although it never appeared in the past tiline, it is ntioned in the ga's lore at tis and sotis, it is even ntioned in so quests. From what happened in the past tiline, the only weapons I saw in the past tiline that is introduced as part of the Seven Deadly Sins weapon series would be the Whip of Luxuria, the weapon of the class that will be released in the future, the Manipulator which would be the weapon associated with the brand sin of Lust, and the Clockwork of the Tristitia, the weapon of the Chronomancer and the weapon associated with the brand sin of Sloth.
As for the rest of the weapons, they are not found ever and have only been ntioned by NPCs. The Seven Deadly Sins weapon series are pretty strong and can be equipped at level 0. The owner of the Whip of Luxuria revealed the Whip of Luxuria's effects and they are too strong and they grow along with the owner. So if you are on level 100, the stats of the weapon will also be reflected in its stat and will be revealed to be around level 100 too, a weapon that grows alongside its owner.
Now, that the weapon of sin is here, perhaps this is a major side quest I stumbled upon. I didn't expect a quest this grand when I rescued Tina from the stomach of the Sandworm. But hey, that is much better to know that there are so new things I have yet to experience back in the past tiline. It wouldn't be exciting if I know everything.
"My father has beco more selfish nowadays and all he keeps on spouting most of the ti is how to preserve the royal bloodline and how to make the Insect Kingdom flourish to rise in power. I also found it weird too but I just thought it was the real emotion of my father so I disregarded it. Now, I think I am now getting suspicious of it."
"Well, enough of talking about that. First, we need to find a way for you to improve your physique. Queen Tanya is right. You have a bit of flaw that needed to be corrected though it is quite minor, it might be one of the main reasons for not being able to increase your power and unleash your full potential. If you want to defeat your father and convince him and your siblings your might, then we need to work as soon as we can."
"Queen Tanya said you know how to improve my combat ability as well as my physique, are you sure you can do that?"
"I can do that but it still depends on your efforts. I am not the one who will benefit from this and you better absorb everything I will teach you. I am not a teacher who is patient enough. If you are ready, we can attempt to start today."
Tina went silent for a few monts before she nodded and agreed. "So what do I need to do?"
"First, we needed a place that is a bit of secluded. Since you live here, perhaps you have at least a few secret spots on this island that you usually use to either escape or you just wanted to reminisce alone. Anywhere as long as it is quite spacious and moving around won't be a problem."
"A secret place huh? A secluded place and quite spacious to move around? Well, I think I have the right spot that has all the requirents we needed. Shall we go?"
"How far is it?"
"It's not that far but I wouldn't say it is pretty near either. However, it is pretty secluded and I doubt anyone would try to enter that place."
"Well, if that is the case, then prepare your weapons and your gear. We will be forcing your growth this ti around."
...
After she prepared her equipnt, she guided and Lina to a secluded area of the insect kingdom. In fact, this is no longer the border of the kingdom but it's already outside the jurisdiction and protection of the kingdom's guards. Whatever we are going to do here, whether we try to do a cri or not, no one will know. This is a perfect place for the training.
I handed Tina all of her equipnt after we arrived.
"Equip all of these and prepare yourself."
Tina didn't ask anything and silently equipped all of the weapons and armor. When she got equipped, I summoned Lucia out of the summons. She is still cuddling Cotton but I know that she is capable of fighting without taking cotton out of her arms so it is fine.
"Lina, Lucia, will be your opponent. I will be observing your forms and healing you if necessary. We will be up until it gets dark so be sure to get your wits ready. I am not a rciful instructor and I will not tolerate slacking either. Now, comnce the battle!"
Before Tina can even say anything about the challenge, Lina and Lucia imdiately began bombarding Tina with magic spells. Tina didn't just stand there and execute evasive maneuvers before she got toasted on Lucia's fireballs and Lucia's magic bombs.
Tina then used a bit of her evasive maneuver to make a bit of a headstart to get close to the two. After all, she is a lee user and she can't attack with her spell just like the [Rainfall of Sirius]. As for her other spells, I doubt they can be used as they are taking a long ti to charge and it also takes a lot of toll on her body.
BANG!
Tina landed on the ground and spit out blood as soon as the Morning Star of Lina landed on her abdon. Thanks to her armor, she managed to avoid getting a lot of damage but that doesn't an she won't get hurt from it.
I snap my fingers and Tina's wounds recovered. Tina didn't waste a single breath and stood up and launched a counterattack. Using her sword, she cut the air and send a few shockwaves created from the air she just cut, I rembered this one as the [Self-Made Wind Blade] though only those who can easily cut the air around them can do this and although it is not as powerful as the [Wind Blade] that is made purely from the mana, this one is just an improvisation to fight back the enemy.
However, Lucia is not just going to let Tina land a hit on them.
"EXPLODE!"
The wind blades that Tina created exploded and as Tina stood up, the explosions caught her, and she didn't get to stand up after that.
"That's a pathetic display you have done out there, Tina."
Tina can barely talk nor stand up. She is just enduring the pain of burns she experienced after catching the explosion head-on.
"Your form is pretty much the sa as Queen Tanya's but the lack of graceful and composed manner. You are too tense to do anything."
"I am sorry that I am so weak..." Tina coughed up blood.
"And what? Give up? Stand back up. Use that pain you experience as a motivation to stand back up. If this is a real battle, you are dead before you can even fight back. Stand up, show . Show and prove that Queen Tanya is not wrong of teaching you the [Rainfall of Sirius]."
With a snap, her wounds healed. She grits her teeth and stood back up. Lucia and Lina are clearly holding back but Tina is still battered. However, this isn't the ti to be sentintal. She picks up the battered sword and without saying anything, she charges again, head-on. This ti, Lina didn't blast her off with her magic or even used the Morning Star to send her flying off in the distance. Even Lucia didn't release a fireball.
Tina hastily swings her sword and she is trying to at least leave a single wound on Lina. However, Lina is not just going to stand there and let Tina land a single hit.
"I know I am very weak. I know from the very start that I am not a worthy ruler of the Insect Kingdom. However, I promised my mother, that I will have to ascend into the throne, change this kingdom for the better and let it prosper!"
CLANG!
Lina blocks her sword with the chain in her Morning Star. Tina is gritting her teeth as she tried to sink the battered sword to Lina's Morning Star.
"But... I tried my best. Hard work always pays off but why is it that my hard work seems to be nonexistent? Why is it that I can't even win in battles like this?!"
PENG!
Lina's expertise in Morning Star easily outmatched Tina's sword and with Tina's grip to the hilt of the sword weak, it was deflected. Lina didn't even hesitate and kicked Tina to the abdon. Sending her to the ground.
When Tina landed on the ground, I can see that her tears are about to fall. She is struggling to stand up but she can't properly do anything. I was about to cast another healing spell on her again when Cotton who was just sleeping on Lucia's arms opened its eyes and spit on Tina.
"Wha- Cotton! What are you doing?!"
I was expecting Tina to be disgusted but the expression on her face is not disgust but amazent. I also realized that the previous wounds that are still present on her body after she was kicked hard by Lina slowly disappeared.
My eyes landed on Cotton who returned to sleep after that. I am not sure anymore, what the hell is Cotton? And how co she managed to heal Tina's wounds like she just drank a bottle of Elixir? What kind of beast is Cotton really?
