Chapter 17

~~~ Chapter 2 ~~~

—————————————————————

"Chachamaru, where are Eirin and Eve? Did they both go out?"

After school, when he returned home, he originally wanted to immediately discuss the situation of the Holy Grail War with Eve and also ask her about her thoughts on what Nagato said during the day. However, he could not sense the presence of the other two, except for Chachamaru.

"Teacher Levi, the master and Miss Eve are in the villa."

With the same expressionless face as Nagato during the day, Levi couldn't help but think about finding Chachamaru's creator one day to discuss adding a facial expression system to her.

"Uh... how long have they been in there?"

The so-called villa refers to the space created by Eirin using magic. Besides being larger and more convenient for training, it has a special feature. Time flows very slowly inside the villa, with one day equivalent to one hour in reality, making it an ideal place for training.

However, there is a question that is hard to say whether it is good or bad. Inside the villa, Eirin can avoid the influence of Nagi's curse and use magic freely. In the past, Levi has suffered a lot from Eirin in the villa, after all, she is known as the strongest vampire progenitor.

Thinking of this, Levi, who is well aware of the huge gap in strength between Eve and Eirin, couldn't help but feel worried.

He walked down the stairs, entered the basement, and passed through the teleportation magic array designed by Eirin, entering the miniature villa inside a crystal ball the size of a soccer ball.

Standing on the magic array suspended in mid-air, he saw a round building connected by a long stone staircase on the opposite side—the villa of Eirin.

On the top floor of the villa, the platform where Levi usually trains, he did not see the figures of the two girls. Levi listened carefully and heard the faint sounds of a fight coming from the sand below.

Levi walked to the edge of the magic array, suddenly leaped up, flipped over the railing, and dived down!

If his students saw this scene, they would undoubtedly scream in shock and then be surprised at why this cheerful teacher would choose to commit suicide!

After all, although it is called a villa by Eirin, it has a height comparable to a skyscraper, which is daunting.

However, why would Levi want to commit suicide? He just chose a more convenient way to reach his destination than running up the stairs.

In the air, Levi's figure suddenly disappeared and reappeared a hundred meters below. This happened again, and in less than a second, he was already standing on the soft sand.

Breaking through the spatial barrier and moving in leaps and bounds—this is the spatial magic ability for which Levi is known. However, this is actually a misunderstanding by Eirin and other mages.

Levi's ability, rather than being a magic learned later, is more like an innate talent. He himself doesn't even remember when he started to have the ability to manipulate space within a certain range. Using this ability is like doing other physically demanding exercises for him, except that it consumes a different kind of energy, which Eirin calls magic power.

There is no need to go through special training methods like mages; just repeated use can strengthen it. Levi's ability is more like an instinct.

Having this ability has indeed brought him a lot of convenience. Like now, even without magic, he can still move at an unimaginable speed and arrive at the battlefield in time.

The originally beautiful beach was now in a mess. Eirin, who had recovered her magic power, shot hundreds of magic arrows without incantation, flying towards Eve, who was standing in knee-deep water with tattered clothes.

Faced with such a wide-ranging attack, Eve did not choose to dodge in vain. She directly transformed a pair of wings on her back and flew towards the only safe sky like a light bird.

Eirin had already anticipated her move and did not give her even a moment to catch her breath. With a speed almost comparable to Levi's instantaneous movement, she appeared behind Eve and delivered a simple straight punch, sending her flying!

"Rik. Rak. Ra. Rak. Rirak!"

Eirin looked down at the black-clad girl lying in the sand and recited her magic incantation.

"Come forth! Thunder of the void, sweep away the enemy! Thunder Axe!"

With the ancient magic spell chanted by Eirin, a huge bolt of lightning split the sky and struck Eve, who was lying on the sand and temporarily unable to control her body.

Seeing this, Levi dared not wait any longer. He broke through the spatial barrier and appeared beside Eve, picking her up and leaping back to avoid the magic that was about to hit him.

"Alright, Eirin. If you want revenge, that was enough."

"Who's talking about revenge! Do you think I'm that petty a person!"

Landing on the ground, Eirin saw Levi's figure through the dissipating sand.

Eirin stomped her feet in protest and then turned her gaze to Eve, who was being held by Levi.

"Hey, and you! You asked me to teach you combat skills, so explain it to him properly."

Hearing Eirin's words, Levi looked at the black-clad girl in his arms with disbelief. In his impression, this girl was not very good at normal communication, let alone actively requesting Eirin to teach her, which was a high-difficulty task.

The paralysis caused by Eirin's punch had already worn off. Eve first struggled to get out of Levi's hands and stood steadily on the soft sand. Then she nodded at Levi.

"Yes, I asked her to help me train."

It was that gaze that made Levi uncomfortable. Eve was looking at him, but Levi always felt that what appeared in her eyes was not him, the one named 'Levi,' but a man named 'Tore,' who looked extremely similar to him.

Levi wanted to deny it and make Eve face reality, but some unexplainable mysteries made him hesitate.

"The mission of a Servant is to protect the Master's safety until the end of the Holy Grail War. But I currently do not have such an ability. And she can help me."

At the moment she decided to become a Heroic Spirit and participate in the Holy Grail War, Eve knew the future she would face. She was aware that her strength might not be comparable to the god-like heroes from various civilizations' legends.

Originally, she did not care too much about this. The Holy Grail War for Heroic Spirits is not a one-time opportunity. Even if she failed this time, she still had almost infinite time to enhance her strength.

However, when she was summoned to this world and found that her Master was Levi, a fate-like arrangement, Eve made up her mind to win the Holy Grail War.

But the original wish that made her willing to become a lonely Heroic Spirit to achieve through the Holy Grail had already changed.

No matter what, to help Levi and win the Holy Grail, Eve had to enhance her strength. Even though she knew there were no shortcuts to mastering combat skills, she would not give up any small possibility.

Last night, in her room, she quickly gained a preliminary understanding of this world through the internet. Her conversation with Chachamaru also made her understand the almost invincible existence of Eirin.

Even if Chachamaru exaggerated Eirin's abilities out of loyalty to her owner, the strange and mysterious magic was enough to make Eve put aside her pointless pride and actively seek help from someone who seemed to be an enemy just a moment ago.

Eirin did not disappoint her. While taking care of Eve's life, she still showed her the terrifying strength of the vampire progenitor. The battle just now further solidified Eve's decision to learn combat skills from Eirin.

Even if she could not learn those powerful magic spells, just the space that can stretch one hour into a day was enough for Eirin to help her better use her own abilities.

"Alright, since you've made up your mind, I won't interfere."

Not knowing how to respond to Eve's gaze, Levi chose to avoid it.

He turned and walked towards the nearby villa.

"Eirin, remember to go easy. Not everyone has your immortal body. I remember you're not very good at healing magic, right?"

"I'm already immortal, why would I need to learn healing magic! Don't worry, I won't let your 'maid' die."

Seemingly forgetting that she was immortal and would recover quickly even if injured, Eirin was very dissatisfied with Levi's concern for Eve.

"Then continue, don't be late for dinner."

Levi had long been used to Eirin's occasional temper. After giving his instructions, he left the beach that he didn't know how to deal with.
