Chapter 18
It was just as Isabella wanted,a full practice with sparing partners.
It didn't take long for everyone to be in awe of the princess skills. She as well felt so proud of herself.
No rest no food... only practice and energy pulsing through every fiber of her being.
"This is the smoothest sword handling I've seen. You can make your own technique out of this princess"
The teacher couldn't help but praise
Isabella felt ecstatic about making her own moves and techniques herself. That is her new found mission.
"Princess!"...A subtle gentle voice called out and it's definitely one she didn't want to hear
"Princess Elena... what brings you here?"... Literally....if you have nothing to do here just leave
But someone didn't get a hint
"I was just walking around. I heard the guards mentioned your swords skills and I came to see more of it myself."
Isabella didn't loom interested in whatever she was saying, Elena clearly saw that and was vexed. Just because she's a princess doesn't mean she should ignore her?
She's born royalty too!
"The sword is a dangerous weapon...my brother didn't want me holding it!"....Elena just wanted to get under Isabella's clothes doesn't she?
"That's normal for a delicate person like yourself!"...
"Pfft!"....
Elana almost spat blood....did Isabella just called her delicate? That also means she's useless...
"Well for someone that needs strict hands to be perfect,you are doing well at swordsmanship"
Rolling her eyes Elena walked a great number of distance from Isabella
Isabella frowns... wondering if she'll be praised for cutting this woman in half
"Bella!"....a familiar voice called out
Elena quickly adjusted her clothes...it seems she had eyes for this handsome looker.
She had seen him just once had the party,she was beyond thankful to the heavens for letting her see him again just immediately after her little banter with the so called warrior princess
"You made it in time... thanks for coming Ron!"...
Isabella smiled... giggling like a child. She's used to doing this around Ronald. He's just someone she can open up to and be her usual self.
Elena in her corner wondered what kind of name 'Ron' is...? Though sbe can't wait to hear his full name and call him by that
Seeing Ronald and Isabella swinging those swords together,she felt irked. Only if she can handle a sword.
An idea flickers in
Nobody said there are other basis to a sword rather than holding and swinging right? She can do just that.
Seeing that they finally take a pause
"Excuse me?"....In the most sweetest voice she cam muster, Elena walked in graceful
"I really admire your swordsmanship my good sir!"...Her smile is infectious... Ronald couldn't help but smile and Isabella was feeling rather entertained...
"Thank you... princess Elena!"...Elena gaps... forming a innocent freight
"I didn't know you had some information about me. Heard it from the princess?"
Ronald brows was slightly raised...! Isabella hasn't spoken to him about her or anything in the slightest. Their swords had been doing the talking instead
"No!"...he said flatly
Wondering if she had messed up,she planned a cover up " I only have basis to swords... I hope to know more from you!"
She lifted up the sword rather slowly.
How can this light thing feel so heavy? What sort of demonic weapon is this... Elena thought was all over the place Ronald decided to help her hold her balance
"Thank you!"...she smiled
And somewhere not far, Isabella was munching a biscuit sent by Adrien and gulping it down with strawberry juice she was more than satisfied. And with the drama she's watching...she felt so blessed
"Handling a sword is tough! Especially for a lady!".. Ronald side comment made Elena angry. What does he mean by that exactly? If Isabella can do it she can do it as well?
What's so special about her anyways?
Either for show off or trying to prove herself..she swings the sword in an inconclusive way and ended up with a cut
"Ouch!"...She screamed
Fate was more cruel,the heavy sword fell hitting her foot with a painful splang
Collapsing on her butt...she made tears roll down
Ronald was confused and for a moment there he raised his head up, sighting Isabella who's enjoying the show and laughing so hard
He sighs... Like a clown concluding a movie...
"Let's get you treated "
He scooped Elena up and marched to the infirmary.
Isabella's eyes twitched
Was she jealous or what?
It was unclear to her!
