175 Improvement in the Dual-Wielding Sword Style "Too bad I could not invite a beast soul warrior to engrave it with an ability." Alaric sighed with regret. "My lord, I also made a scabbard for it using the remaining cold iron and some of the spare materials I had. You were gone for quite a while so I also asked a friend of mine to paint a design on it." Goran handed him a white scabbard with a golden dragon painting. Alaric was pleased. The scabbard was made of cold iron and some rare metals, so it wouldn't easily break, and the aesthetic painting was a bonus. "Thank you for your efforts in creating this sword, Sir Goran, but we might have to wait for some time before we can find a beast soul warrior to engrave it with an ability." Sir Goran took a deep breath as he nodded. "I understand, my lord." He knew how difficult it was to find a suitable beast soul warrior. After all, each beast soul warrior had different integrated traits and those abilities might not fit well with the sword and the wielder. "I will get someone to send you the rewards I promised." Alaric bid him farewell and left with his custom-made sword. He couldn't wait to test it out together with his Rare Steel Sword. On his way to the training ground, Alaric tried to come up with a name for the sword. He felt that it deserved a fitting name. Snow White Sword? No, that sounds too girly. Pristine White Sword? Hmm, it still does not sound right. He came up with more than ten names, but not a single one perfectly described the sword so he temporarily discarded the idea of giving it a name. When he arrived at the training ground, he realized that the trainees were no longer there. The instructor probably brought them somewhere for some physical training. For a warrior to become a Knight, they needed to build a body capable of withstanding and holding mana. Otherwise, they would easily break and succumb to mana-related damage. Alaric unsheathed his Rare Steel Sword and the newly crafted short sword. Based on aesthetic design, the Rare Steel Sword looked completely ordinary compared to the other. After admiring his swords for a while, Alaric started testing the compatibility of the two swords. One thing I noticed after dual-wielding for some time, using two swords of the same length restricted my movement. Sometimes, the balance felt off so I had to use weird maneuvers to compensate for the lack of balance. This was also the reason he asked for a short sword. In the next moment, Alaric finally moved. Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! I see... I can use the short sword for defense. Because of his SSS-rank Swordsmanship trait, he managed to incorporate what he had learned at a fast rate and improve his new sword style. Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Not bad. I think this new style is faster and more efficient. I can easily react to any situation because the balance feels better. Alaric smiled. I should go and help them prepare for the celebration. *** Deep within the Enchanted Woodlands, inside the largest treehouse in the Greenwood Kingdom. "Your Majesty, the goblins are gathering their army! Our scouts also discovered that the colony is trying to unite the scattered goblin tribes!" Garandel was shaken by this report. Last time, they only suspected that the goblin colony was planning to attack. It seems like Yvanna is right. The goblin colony is aiming for the mana spring! Garandel furrowed his eyebrows as he leaned on his chair. He let out a deep, heavy sigh as he looked at the high elf who had given the report. It was Elder Dahon, one of the highest-ranking elves in the kingdom. "Elder Dahon, are the warriors ready?" He asked. Elder Dahon nodded with a grim look. "Yes, Your Majesty. Our elven army is ready to face those goblins! We are only waiting for your orders." Garandel rubbed the bridge of his nose as he closed his eyes. He still couldn't bear to decide, but he knew that it must be done. "Where is the princess?" He asked in a low voice. Elder Dahon thought for a moment before he replied. "Her Highness left with her group a few days ago. They took a detour to avoid the goblin scouts so it might take them a long time before they reach the borders of Astania." He knew that the elven king was worried about his daughter's safety so he added. "Do not worry about Her Highness, Your Majesty. Elder Neo is with her. Even if they encounter danger, I am sure that they will be fine." Neo was a 3-Ringed Beast Soul Master. In their Greenwood Kingdom, his strength was among the top few. Garandel felt more at ease upon hearing this. "You are right. With Elder Neo at her side, Yvanna will be safe." He then stood up, his expression turning serious. "Bring the elven commanders here! We will discuss how we should deal with those goblins!" Hearing this, Elder Dahon nodded. "Yes, Your Majesty!" *** Somewhere in the Enchanted Woodlands, a group of hooded individuals were hiding behind the bushes while observing the movements of the goblins up ahead. "How many goblin warriors do they have?" Yvanna asked in a whispering voice. "They have over fifty goblin warriors and five hobgoblins. Based on their numbers and the structure of their camp, this is probably an outpost." Neo responded. Yvanna frowned. Attacking this outpost might alert the colony and disrupt our plan. We should make another detour. Yvanna thought deeply before she made a decision. "Let us take a detour. Killing them is not worth it." Upon hearing her words, Neo nodded and made a hand gesture to the elven warriors behind them. Yvanna left with her small team and disappeared without making a sound. This wasn't the first goblin outpost they had encountered since they left the kingdom. The fact that there were many scattered outposts all around the kingdom means that the goblin colony was about to attack them. This gave Yvanna a sense of urgency.
