Chapter 21
The valley, filled with lush trees, jade waterfalls, and craggy rocks, looked like a scene from a painting.
The students watching the scenery from below the valley couldn’t help but murmur in admiration.
While forests were a common sight while riding, the scenery of Mystic Mountain, located here in Isilia, was exceptionally beautiful, unlike any other.
However, the sightseeing came to an end with the appearance of one person.
Lizark Baumann, who had climbed to a higher position, shouted harshly at the students.
“Do you think you came here to play?! Fall in immediately!”
At those words, the students scrambled to line up in rows and columns.
Lizark gave a satisfied grin and spoke.
“Starting today, you will spend four days and three nights climbing to the training ground located on the opposite side of this place. I’ve formed teams of five. I’ve already briefed the team leaders of each group on the details, so ask them if you have questions. Any questions?”
Most were suppressed by Lizark’s momentum and didn’t dare to raise any objections, but Khal raised his hand with a blunt expression, staring straight at him.
Just that simple action made Lizark’s eye twitch in tension.
However, there was no need to show it, so he spoke.
“Go ahead.”
“What does this have to do with swordsmanship training?”
“…”
Intrigued, the students waited tensely for Lizark’s response. He frowned and looked at Khal.
