Reiner sat in the spectator booth, breathlessly complaining, "Huh, this kid has always been strong... One punch from him was like a hammer, and he almost knocked me out."
Helitos also lay in the snow, panting heavily. He was exhausted and his magic power was depleted. "I didn't know Dad was so powerful with his bare hands... I've never seen Dad fight before."
The two fought in the snow for half an hour without a clear winner. Finally, Flori stopped the fight because the magic armor had run out of magic power.
Aliana squatted beside Reiner and spoke slowly, "Can you do the same? Your father uses a lot of auxiliary magic. With the speed at which he consumes magic, an ordinary person's magic reserves can only last for five minutes at most."
Hearing that a few people were going to the training ground, Potato, who had just been hiding in the room because of shyness, also followed them happily.
Martina raised her fist and volunteered, "Now it's my turn to spar with you, Reiner!"
Looking at Martina's strong arms, Reiner asked in a very aggrieved tone: "You...you want to domestic violence me?"
Without using magic, Martina can defeat Helitos single-handedly.
Even when using magic, she was more proficient in casting wind and thunder armor than Helitos, and could still beat the child with one hand.
Unless he could use other magic, he had no chance of winning against Martina with his bare hands.
Martina put her hand down: "No, I'm just curious."
Flori pulled Helitos up from the ground with all her strength and asked, "How is it, as a user, is this magic armor still useful?"
Helitos looked down at the metal gauntlet, which had many obvious cracks on it due to the excessive force of the blow.
He thought for a moment and then replied, "My strength has indeed increased, but this magic armor limits my flexibility. It always seems to be a step behind."
Flori nodded. "It's not flexible enough... Indeed, a pile of steel is hard to compare to a human body... There's still a long way to go."
"As an opponent of the Magic Armor, what do you think of the Magic Armor, Dad?"
Reiner thought for a moment and replied, "It's too unreliable. During our sparring match just now, the gears on Helitos's arm got stuck a few times and he couldn't even move. If this happened in actual combat, it would be troublesome.
Also, after Helitos put on the Magic Armor, his movements did become less agile."
Flori stroked her chin and fell into deep thought: "Then I'll go back and tinker with it."
Miraz helped Helitos take off the magic armor. She bent down to fold it, but found that the joints of the magic armor were deformed.
She held out her hand to Reiner.
"What's wrong?"
"Research funding. I want to use mithril as the material for the magic armor later, but the price of mithril has risen again."
Martina looked at her, puzzled: "Aren't you a demon? How can you touch mithril?"
Miraz shrugged disapprovingly and explained, "I'll just wear a pair of gloves."
Just then, a voice came from behind the spectator seats: "How about letting me try next time?"
It was Peggy, she had also followed stealthily.
"There are only a few people as good as Helitos. Most people are like me, with no athletic talent. They can't fly or run fast." As Peggy spoke, her tail twisted slightly behind her.
