The sounds of battle cries and energy whirling to life litter the pocket dimension as the fairies are gruelly training to master [Ki] and [Aura] while being supervised by a dozen of Asmodeus' clones.

"I don't get it! Why can't I get this Semblance thing to work!?" Max yells in frustration.

"You can't force a Semblance to manifest, it has to come naturally and the best way to do that is through training." One of the clones told him.

"But it's been ONE YEAR, Asmodeus! Natsu, Gray, Erza, unlocked theirs the same day you unlocked theirs [Auras]!" Max said.

"Sometimes it takes decades for someone to unlock their Semblance, sometimes it happens as soon as your [Aura's] unlocked, and sometimes you don't get one at all. Besides, you made a lot of progress with your [Ki] so there's nothing to feel insecure about." He said.

"I'm not feeling insecure, just left out." Max admits.

"You'll be fine. Now, I wanna see you fuse your [Ki] with your Magic Power." The clone said.

Max nods and powers up merging his [Ki] with his Magic Power, enhancing his strength far past a normal human.

The perspective then switches to a close-up of swords clashing their wielders' faces lean closer each wearing smiles.

"Your reaction time has increased. I may actually have to step it up a little." The clone quips.

"By all means go ahead. I wanna see how far I can go." Erza says truthfully.

The clone's grin grows and jumps back. "You asked for it." His body starts to flicker before encircling Erza in a ring of afterimages.

The knight is able to deflect various strikes coming from everywhere very well, however, she notices that he has picked up speeds and strikes are becoming too fast for her eyes to track and as a result multiple cuts start appearing on armor.

"You're wide open, Erza." The clone appears in front of her and delivers an uppercut sending her upwards before grabbing her leg and slamming her body on the floor.

Erza slowly gets up and turns to her clone. "That... was cheating."

The clone smirks. "All is fair in love and war, red. Your enemies won't hesitate to pull a fast one on you, so you gotta make sure you're one step ahead." He extends his arm and helps Erza up.

Meanwhile, in the far reaches of the pocket dimension, the original Asmodeus is meditating as he is covered in an aura of power.

[It's been one year already and they've already made a lot of progress]

I open my eyes to reveal the [Silver Rinne-Sharingan]. "Yeah, the clones are putting them through the ringer but they are keeping up just fine."

I was able to watch the fairies' progress thanks to clones' [Silver Rinne-Sharingan].

While Macao, Wakaba, and Makarov took longer to keep up with the training due to their advanced age, with the former two actually dying from an imbalance when they projected ki blasts in their hands and subsequently exploding in their faces. Luckily for them, I was there to put them back together.
