Even though the thought came in my mind I didn't halt my advancement towards Emma and even used my fast move and jumped at top of her with my sword ready to swing at her.
SWISH!
I swing my sword with holding back my strength.
SWISH!! CLANG!!
She also swung her sword to the right with deflecting my strike by holding the sword through right hand.
I was surprised that even my insanely fast move was not able to surprise her because I did manage to horn this move to something even better than the last time I train with Emma.
"Have you thought about the name of this move yet?" Putting the blade of her sword on her shoulder Emma asked smilingly with tilting her head, giving the impression like she was not having a tough time.
"Oh, uh... I didn't had time to think about that!" I said with heavy throat.
"Don't tell me you have no creativity in your mind?"
"Well, uh... looks like I am busted, hahaha!!"
Emma sighed after hearing my response and went into some deep thought by putting her fingers on her chin.
"How about space jump? Your speed is exceptional when you use that, almost looking like you are transgressing the concept of speed, so I think that is a good name! What do you think about it?"
"I think- I think it is better than what I came up with. But aren't you praising this dull move a bit too much? Like if I uh... will say something about its speed then its speed would be equal to a jet rocket at most! " I rubbed the back of my head.
" I am saying it because of the potential I saw in that move. So, what did you came up with?" Emma raised her eyebrow.
"Explosive light speed!"
Emma crossed her arms with carefully pointing the blade of her sword in downward direction, "Hmm, it is also good, well it is up to you to name it whatever you want!"
"I think space jump is better, but its better version can be called explosive space jump, what do you think?" I asked with putting a smile on my face.
"It is good, but... I think we are forgetting what we were supposed to do, prepare your posture this time I will be the one on offense!"
She said after pointing her sword in my direction. Doesn't she change the topic a bit too fast?
I saw her sword also covering in the veil of flames just like mine, my eyes again widened after witnessing this because she has not used something like this in our training, just what is her calibre? Is it similar to mine? Then the flames covering her sword vanished, and her sword's blade appeared bright orange with some sparks produced from its blade. She commenced her advancement after glancing at the blade and putting a smirk on her face. Her speed was slow as compared to space jump because she was simply running at full speed without using some kind of explosion to boost her speed, after she reached an arm's length distance from me she drew her sword backwards which gave me some time to do the same, I simply veiled my sword in flames, we both swung our swords at each other.
CLANG!!!
Our swords collided with producing a spark capable of illuminating the dark mall for an instant, our speeds were equal but the force behind our swings were as different as heaven and earth, my hands holding the handle of my sword received destructive impact of the collide and I had to be on the defensive when Emma continued to swung her sword at me offensively.
SWISH! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!!
She swung her sword in all directions without saying much and I was doing the same to protect myself from a lethal strike. When she continued to not say anything, I opened my mouth because this exchange of strikes was proving to be deadly for my hands.
"You... know, this is som-some training. You don't have to seriously strike me with this crazy bright sword. Go easy on me will ya!" I pleaded.
Emma withdrew from striking me again and took some steps back, then she swung the sword in the air which caused a bright flash to appear and to form an arc.
'How is she using this ability? Will I be able to do it too? Or the real question is, can I pull it off?' I thought inwardly.
"Are you not going to attack me, even though I am deliberately on defensive now!" Emma chuckled. Her mocking chuckle forced my brain to generate a thousand of ideas, but none of them would be able to grant me that much striking force that her swings hold.
"How are you doing that? I am your comrade so tell me how to do it since I also have a fire related calibre!"
Hearing it Emma frowned in disappointment before saying, "You are supposed to find that out by yourselves."
"I see!"
After Emma refused to tell me how she did that, I start to ponder again to come up with any idea on how to pull off something like that.
I came up with an idea after just a second, but to do it practically will require a lot of practice and skill.
'Uhh!" I grunted to stop myself from overthinking and started to run and did not use my space jump because I wanted to have some time for doing what was in my mind, Emma also wielded her sword defensively to give me a moment to strike her. My devil fault's blade soon turned red and then yellow with emitting flames but only from the dull side of the blade. The emitting flames soon started to speed up akin to exhaust emitting from a rocket.
I strengthened the flames only when our swords were about to collide to help in striking with maximum force.
CLANG!!!
I was able to strike Emma with producing force almost as powerful as Emma's strike. After colliding with me Emma's eyes widened in shock, and veil of silence covered her lips.
She blinked two times with those widely opened eyes and still didn't said anything, to end this awkwardness I ended up asking her, "What, why are you silent all of a sudden!?"
She closed her somewhat opened mouth and cleared her throat, "Ahem! I wasn't expecting you to do something different but still giving the same result. I just didn't think you were that smart!"
"Girl, I am a human, I have the ability to think! Anybody would be able to do that if they have calibre of my type and are given some time to prepare!"
I refused to accept any praises because I know I am not worth any of that! I still have to create a force equals to her strike but how?
"Hey, why don't we keep striking each other with these powerful swings?" I proposed in hope of affirmation.
"Oh, so you can analyse how I did that? Well sure but you should have been able to find out how I did that after exchanging only one strike with me!" Emma shrugged ignorantly which I obviously didn't liked.
"Come on, be more generous and tell me! I told you I am not smart!" I pleaded.
She didn't give any response and smiled while shrugging.

On the other side of the ground floor, Ellie and Hoover were training. Their training created many sparks of small lightning in the air every time they exchanged blows. Ellie was putting up well against Hoover's axe with her single edged black blade daggers. She was swinging the daggers by holding the golden black coloured handle.
