―Now, you have to know the fencing class," Keegan said as she dragged me back with her, clinging to my arm. Leaving Jacob confused behind.I looked up at the window again, Larissa was no longer there.We arrived at the fencing hall where several students were practicing. Almost immediately a short, black-haired, freckled boy approached us.―Keegan, so you brought company.-Said the graceful young man, while with a big smile, he stared at me.Keegan smiled awkwardly, I just looked at her out of the corner of my eye.―Nicolas, this is Elizabeth. Elizabeth, this is Nicolas, we've known each other for a while but we're in different faculties.―I've heard about you," Nicolas said smiling. -Do you practice fencing?―Here we go again," said Keegan, covering his mouth...―Nicolas is quite competitive, he's one of the best in the class and always wants to fight with everyone, besides if you want to enter this class you must pass the initial test.―I understand, I can try," I said while I was looking for a suit to wear.We settled down facing each other and put on our masks and gloves.The fencing teacher Dmitry, a tall, stocky, fair-skinned Russian, made sure our equipment was in good condition before handing us the foil.―On GuardWe positioned ourselves in the guard lines ready for the assault.―ReadyWe nodded our heads.―Forward!I started with a movement with my back leg bringing my foot backward agilely dodging the first throw that Nicolas had made.Despite his short stature, he was really agile. Our swords began to clash and the movements were increasing.I began to move forward coordinating my front leg with my back leg to better control the movement and speed.Nicolas moved back a little bit just to be able to advance again making a movement with his outstretched arm. Finally, I dodged him by falling on the heel of my front leg forming a right angle, where I stretched my arm to the maximum touching Nicolas' chest with the tip of the foil.Several students watched as they applauded.I extended my hand to Nicolas as a symbol of respect in the game.

―You're good at this Elizabeth! -said Nicolas as we took off our masks.―That was easy enough.A female voice was heard entering the room. It was Leonora, next to her was the brunette girl with long dreadlocks. As they walked, Leonora approached Dmitry.―I propose a special element of my house professor (faculty of witches and wizards, in which I had not yet been accepted on good terms by Lesso) -She pointed to the girl with her cane. -Valeska Lennox.―She's the best in her class, I don't understand how he can allow new students to take the test with him ―Glaring at Nicholas who ducked his head and withdrew.Valeska began to approach me.―Do you accept the challenge, new one? Or are you afraid," she said as she laughed.―My name is Elizabeth and I accept the challenge," I said last as I put my mask back on and got into guard position.She took up her position. The other students huddled together to get a better view. I noticed some concern on Keegan's face, but he was still sending me signs of support.Professor Dmitry as he spoke the words to begin.The first to pounce was Valeska, I quickly dodged her and made a move with my legs, being balanced and moving forward to attack her as well. Her intentions were quite clear. So I wasn't going to grant her that wish so easily.After a few more minutes I bent my knees and as I stretched my arm out again I was able to touch the tip of the foil to her chest. The crowd began to get excited.Valeska took off her mask furiously looking at Leonora, who was also spewing fire from her mouth.―How about we make this a little more interesting? ―said Leonora while looking at her pointed fingernails.―The first to bleed loses.
