Mana: Goddess Of Destiny

Early morning the next, Faith burst into the wizard's tower, frightening Merlin.

"Merlin!" Faith had a serious look on her face, giving him a bad feeling "Have given the boys basic knights training yet.

"NO"

"Good, let's start today."

"Huh"

"You heard me, let's get Merlin and Kai."

"…."

Merlin stood by a big drown house "I will teach you how to ride a horse today" Merlin softly said his face clam while on the inside he was panicking he wanted to stall sword training. "This is the basic skill. As long as you grasp it well, you have an advantage in battle. Kai and Arthur looked excited as Merlin was talking. Faith stood in the background with Yuyu just watching. As the two were interacting with the horses. Merlin glanced at as she gave him the death stare that seems to say,

"Sword Training better be doing soon."

"Hey! Stupid girl!" Arthur screams out at Faith. Making Merlin jump when Faith smiles creepily "It's your turn!"

"Okay"

Faith jumped on the horse with professionalism, making Arthur upset. Faith smirked at Arthur childishly as she showed him that she had gotten on the horse faster than him. Arthur was prideful like Uther, and he could not stand the idea that someone was better than him.

Merlin was dreading this "The next lesson is sword training, First hold your sword directly in front of the wood. Focus on your strength in your arms and its accuracy. As Kai and Arthur had taken swings at the pieces of thick wood Faith just stood in front of it.

"Stupid girl aren't you going to do anything" Arthur finally said as he couldn't take her standing there

"Already did" The thick piece of wooden suddenly broke into pieces surprising both Kai and Arthur as they stood in shock. Merlin wasn't surprised he was more worried as he believed his teacher was getting impatient.

"You couldn't have broken that"

"And why couldn't I have?"

"Now, now, let me tell you a story." Merlin interrupted them "Once upon a time a Knight fell in love and married an ugly witch, making everyone think he would regret his decision but, he loved her despite her appearance. However, it turned out that the ugly witch wasn't ugly at all, but an extremely beautiful woman who put a spell on herself. Surprising everyone, with this she tested him one last time and asked him what appearance her preferred her to take. What would your answer?"

"I'd choose her beautiful form," Kai said

"And you Arthur."

"I choose her beautiful form too," Arthur said

"Id let the witch decided," Faith said

"..." Merlin paused "Why is that?"

"Isn't the witch testing the knight. So, why would she make it easy for him."

"Stupid girl, what would you know."

"Who knows" Faith responded and left seemingly lost in thought.
