After one week of training to be stronger and healing the wounds given from the Minotaur, Andrew Silver decided it was time to follow the letter the Exiled gave him and talk to the Exiled himself. He soon finds him nearby Castlian Shore and greets him.
Andrew: “Hello there…”
Exiled: “Ah, it’s you. I’m glad you got my letter wizard.”
Andrew: “Sorry it took me a week to respond… I just wanted to be stronger and all those wounds I got really hurt.”
Exiled: “That is fine noble wizard. But you lack purpose and direction.”
Andrew: “Yea I know… I really need to get better as I even think I was lucky defeating the minotaur… if it doesn’t make you embarrassed…”
Exiled: “What would make me embarrassed?”
Andrew: “Uh… would… you be fine if you were to train me?”
Exiled: “And what is that reason for?”
Andrew: “Well… I really am inspired by you. I really want to be known as a swordmaster that spreads peace though Magius just like you… as well it is not that weird when you realize we’re both Castlian.”
Exiled: “So you want to learn the direction of the sword.”
Andrew: “Pretty much, I would really appreciate it you know…”
Exiled: “Well that settles it… meet me tomorrow soon in the Whispering Forest and I will train you to be a strong Castlian knight.”
Andrew: “Oh thank you… you don’t know how much this means to me.”
And soon that next day Andrew is meeted with all sorts of challenges that the Exiled puts in to train himself. Andrew was not able to easily keep up with the challenges and even fighting the Exiled for practice was too hard for him. This occurred again and again and it drove the Castlian wizard to shame. One night he talks to a wizard named Luigi Banks about all of this training.
Andrew: “I don’t know dude, I don’t think I’ll ever get better…”
Luigi: “Aww c’mon dude just keep trying!”
Andrew: “No, you don’t know, it’s such a pain to deal with. I think I should quit.”
Luigi: “And that’s how you get weaker. C’mon my friend your much better than this.”
Andrew: "I’m not can’t you see-
Luigi: “Again you are… you know much much training you had to do to even get to the point where you are?”
Andrew: “Well… a lot actually… but-”
Luigi: “Do you know how well you fought the Minotaur?”
Andrew: “With luck of cour-”
Luigi: “Not with luck! You fought well cause of your spirit. Your eagerness. Your strength!”
Andrew: “And?”
Luigi: “The thing is your underestimating how well you can actually be! C’mon dude you have to keep going… you want to know something secret?”
Andrew: “What is it?”
Luigi: “There’s a lot of times where I just want to throw the towel and give up, just like you. However I come back again, and again, no matter how much it occurs. If I just gave up I wouldn’t be known as a legendary hero fighting for peace in Magius.”
Andrew: “So the way you never gave up is-”
Luigi: “Persevere, don’t give up. That’s the key to victory. Just train hard and achieve your dreams dude. I believe that you can be a swordmaster and keep peace in Magius. You can do it dude!”
Andrew: “Well… thanks Luigi for that, I really needed it.”
Luigi: “I can tell from that tone your ready to try again. You got this dude.”
And after those words of encouragement Andrew quickly trained hard and soon used his analytic mind for use in learning the patters of the Exiled. He quickly adapted being stronger with weapons, he quickly learned being quick on his feet, and he quickly learned to dodge as fast as he can while applying a lot of strength. This in turned made him beat the challenges the Exiled placed and when he practiced fighting the Exiled he manages to make the Exiled give up on the fight.
Exiled: “Wow… you grown a lot stronger than I expected. What made you strong so quickly.”
Andrew: “Words of encouragement and a mind to be stronger and win.”
Exiled: “That’s nice to hear and that mindset is really needed for a knight. Your doing well. I think your ready for-”
Before he could finish his line a group of three wizards that are notorious for causing crimes and threats across Magius soon casted their spells and they all aimed at the Exiled. The Exiled, being weak from losing to Andrew, quickly went unconscious and his sword and shield fly up to land nearby Andrew. The three dark wizard all celebrate in victory before turning to Andrew.
Dark wizard #1: Hohoho… a weakling nearby the Exiled. I will kill you like you’re dessert for us!
Dark wizard #2: HAHAHAHA! Your gonna die kid!
Andrew was in fear quickly and was thinking of bolting immediately. But when looking at the Exiled and remembering his commitment to maintaining peace within Magius, Andrew decided that he had to stand his ground and show those dark wizards who really is stronger. He quickly picks up the Wall of Jericho and the Oathkeeper.
Andrew: So you really think I am a punching bag to practice on? I will make sure you regret what you just said!
Dark wizard #2: Oh wow he really thinks he’s-
Andrew: “HIIIIIIIIIIYA!” he crys out as he dashes into the dark wizard and pierces close to his heart. Dropping the dark wizard unconscious from the force Andrew caused.
Andrew: “You wanna dance eh? I’ll show you!” Andrew yelled as he uses his explosion magic to high jump and soon cast a blast against the dark wizards.
Dark wizard #1: “What the hel-” was the words he said before he was knocked unconscious from the blast.
Dark wizard #3: "Oh you annoying little ratskull! I will show you the true power of plasma!
Andrew: "Oh yea?
Dark wizard #3: “Eat this!” And soon the dark wizard casted a plasma barrage at Andrew. He attempts to run but now seeing all at a straight line at his soul and his strength he knew one more trick to win the battle.
Andrew: “You called for it then. Raging Storm!” He yells out as he unleashes seven casted slashes which tear the plasma blasts to shreads as they all hit the third dark wizard enough to cause intense pain within them.
Dark wizard #3: “ACK!” They soon step down. “You… win… this battle… but not the war you initiated now!” They yelled before they fall down due to being unconscious.
Andrew: "Well… I think I certainly proved that I ain’t a weakling. That’s nice to know.
The Exiled that now awakens again after being unconscious: “Augh… what happened?”
Andrew: “Well… see the environment for yourself.”
The Exiled soon looks around the battlefield and sees the three dark wizards all defeated by Andrew himself.
Exiled: “You did well. Very well. I think you earn my trust to keep that.”
Andrew: “But… I don’t think that’s right since these are your weapon and tools…”
Exiled: “It’s fine. I got some spares in cases some wizards steal my gear but you definitely earned it.”
Andrew: “Thanks-”
“YO!”
Andrew quickly turns around and sees Luigi Banks running up to him.
Luigi: “That was an awesome battle I heard and I knew you would win that one!”
Andrew: “Why… thank you.”
Luigi: “Sorry that I was late, I heard it from miles from the explosion and knowing you two training I quickly ran to help. I didn’t expect you to handle it yourself.”
Andrew: “I did good.”
Luigi: “You did fantastic work my friend. Keep on doing it.”
Soon Andrew was quickly told that he have progressed far enough to where the Exiled can only practice him as he has done all of his challenges. Soon Andrew goes back home to Summer Hold to relax. However before he opens the door to his home, he remembers that the dark wizard said that he initiated a war and that he should be careful. Andrew then knew that this would probably lead him to be a strong Castlian knight for the world to know. He then enters his home and takes a rest. Knowing about what he will be dealing with eventually…
