The sword made a faint swoosh when it cut through the air or slice through the wheat mannequins, made as a replica of opponents for training purposes. The sword danced gracefully in her hands as she twirled it around while mercilessly sliced through her targets. She felt at ease and peace, calmed nerves and clear mind, as she exerted no hint of her destructive power.

That was until all replicas were slaughtered and she had one last target to destroy and that's the massive boulder behind her. She took a glance back and smirked at the boulder before she started skipped towards it while sword dancing. Once she's close enough, she bulged her muscles, tightened grip on the hilt of the blade, took a breath and channeled her power down to her fingers and onto the weapon.

With a one swift swing with the sword, she cut through the boulder like a piece of meat. The boulder separated into half and fell onto the ground, making the ground vibrated. She swung the sword again before finally sliding it into the scabbard. She proudly grinned at herself at the sight of a cut boulder. Besides diamond, she destroy anything after years of training her strength to the full potential.

"Excellent as always, General Adam", slow claps sounded from behind along with approaching footsteps. Ah, that title never gets old. Xena smiled to herself before turning around with a stern expression on to face a big group of royalties with a few high ranked military officers like the Colonel, Lieutenants and Generals.

Even with her young age, they all still eyed her with utmost respect and admiration. Why? Because of the customized badge on her right chest with a pair of ferns made of Jade sprawling out like a pair of wings, gold plated North star with her X initial in the middle of it. Originally it was made of diamonds but they've replaced it with Jade for her. Nevertheless, the proud title she carried did not change.

General of Fern's Army

Yeap, the 20 years old Xena Adam was just promoted to the highest position in the military and the entire kingdom was over the moon for her. Having a vessel of Strength Power as the Prime General is such a promising fate and for the Kingdom of Fern, it got them recognized by the other element kingdoms as well. It's true that Fern Kingdom is always being discriminated among the elements kingdoms seeing as Earth Power is much more weaker than bursting flames, crashing waves and thunderstorms. But now that their General possesses the Strength Power and become practically invincible, Fern Kingdom is quietly feared by many.

"Great performance, dear. I believe the kingdom is more at peace with the military in your hands", a smooth voice spoke and Xena bowed at the Queen of Fern. The queen nodded at the girl with a smile before inviting everyone to her tea break. The queen loves her tea break. As the group moved to the castle's yard, Xena walked alongside with the King of Fern as he questioned her of her wellbeing. Frankly, the king and queen took well care of her since she moved into the palace and they are more of a friend then ruler to her which was very pleasant.

They seated around the long table before servants placed down plates of delicious desserts. "I was think of expanding the kingdom considering we're Earth Power based and are supposed to be the food source. What do you think, Xena?", the king asked through his cookie filled mouth, making the girl chuckled a little. "If your highness wishes, I don't see a problem in it", Xena nodded and took a bite of a cupcake.

"Then I say we colonize the few small kingdoms around us. Getting them in will surely increase our productivity and also to provide them protection", the king suggested and the table agreed with a smile. Xena was actually quite nervous as the king had indirectly tasked her with her first mission which is to colonize lands. It surely wasn't the expected first mission but whatever it is, Xena is ready to take the lead as the General of Army.
