After assessing Jaku’s talents, Agnes fought against the other Dragonborn siblings one by one.

Each of them posed a very distinct lack of knowledge and foundation that a normal Physical Arts user would have learned during their early years as a kid. They had a good base for their physical stats, which they inherently obtained from their bloodline as Dragonborns. But the way they used their physical advantage was something left to be desired.

Agnes wiped the sweat off her forehead as she knocked down Zion with a takedown leg sweep.

"Ahhh!" Zion groaned. "I lost!"

It looked like the youngest Dragonborn was still disappointed that he couldn’t defeat a 7-star Physical Arts master.

"...don’t worry, bro…I lost too," Umisu whispered, consoling her little brother.

Meanwhile, Sheina bowed to Agnes and thanked her for the lessons. This was the first time that the Dragonborns sparred with someone as experienced as her and it gave them valuable lessons that they sorely needed.

"We appreciate you for teaching us our faults. We will reflect upon them and be better next time."

"It was my pleasure," Agnes said, lowering her axe. "Fighting with you has opened my eyes."

Agnes looked at Sheina and the rest of the Dragonborns in a completely new light. Before this sparring session, they were merely novices who barely knew how to wield their weapons. But after just a few minutes of fighting with her, they were able to improve leaps and bounds just by themselves, even without her teaching them anything. They learned it on their own.

Their talents were quite frightening. If her master saw these Dragonborns, he would immediately want to take them under his wings.

All of them had a certain quality that transcended even those of normal genius levels.

Jaku had terrifying speed and reaction times, which Agnes felt could even surpass her own. He would even give the young missus Yuna a run for her money!

Agnes had the most trouble dealing with Sheina. Her all-encompassing vision of the battlefield was a natural weakness to her slow and heavy fighting style with the axe.

Whenever she would charge towards Sheina, the Dragonborn would shoot arrows towards her line of movement, stopping her in her tracks. By the time she deflected the arrows, Sheina would have already repositioned herself in a different location.

As for Umisu, Agnes thought she was the weakest out of the bunch at first.

Even though she used a spear, her speed and movements were far too slow to take advantage of the light and sharp nature of the spear. But as the fight went on, Agnes was surprised to see Umisu gaining both speed and power with each thrust! Instead of losing energy as the fight went on, she actually gained more power!

Near the end of the fight, Agnes actually felt herself losing by a little bit. But of course, she outmaneuvered Umisu through skill and experience, throwing her off her balance and stopping her momentum.

Those three Dragonborns showed great promise, which already surprised Agnes. But as she went on to fight Zion, she realized that he was the one most talented out of them all.

The youngest Dragonborn was a very different kind of beast entirely. His jabs and punches were sharp and heavy, with his footwork perfectly allowing him to ’dance’ in and out of range at his discretion.

His only weakness was his tendency to be reckless and impulsive, which he couldn’t get rid of during the entire fight.

"What realm are you guys in right now?" Agnes asked.

Sheina looked deep within herself and answered, "We are all at the two-star level, Miss Agnes."

The Ogre battlemaid chuckled and shook her head. They were only at the two-star realm, yet were exhibiting strength at the three-star realm.

It was quite absurd to experience such an overwhelming talent from these siblings. And they weren’t even using Mithril Artifacts!

Agnes saw how the Rebornians increased their magical power by wielding a Mithril Artifact. If they did wield it, by her estimation, it wouldn’t be surprising for the Dragonborns to exhibit strength similar to a 4-star level warrior while still being in the 2-star realm.

She could only sigh at the unfairness of the world. The Rebornians were truly a different breed of their own.

"Your Physical talents are good, but it will only take you so far. If you want to improve your powers, then I suggest you practice these Physical Art spells in the meantime."

Agnes approached Jaku first, showing him firsthand how to cast the 2-star spells such as [Lightning Steps], [Thunderous Slash], and [Electric Touch]. All of those spells increased in power the faster it was performed, so it would make use of Jaku’s natural quickness into a viable weapon.

[Shrouded Critical Strike], [Misty Step], and [Silent Shot] were perfect spells for the sharpshooter Sheina. It would allow her to increase her arrow’s penetrating power, while also allowing her to easily obscure herself from her enemies.

As for Umisu, the kinds of spells that would enhance her fighting capabilities were those that would allow her to cover for her slow starting point. [Whirlwind Sweep], [Turtle Defense Thrust], and [Standing Shaolin Stick] would allow her to push, defend, and evade her attackers while she gathered up momentum.

And lastly for Zion, Agnes didn’t really know what to give him. His natural skill [Spacebreaker Punch] was already a devastating attack that didn’t need any additional support from a normal Physical Art spell. The only thing she could help him with was teaching him the basics of fighting, the techniques, the tricks, and all that.

It only took the Dragonborns a few hours before they fully learned the Magic Theory of the spells.

Using Agnes’ training regimen of constant sparring, they started practicing their skills with the Montgomery escorts, who were all quite adept at fighting.

Meanwhile, Michael returned to his house to consolidate all that he’d learned after observing Physical Arts the whole day. Find exclusive content at freewebnovel

The realizations from his breakthrough allowed him to have a more intimate sense of Physical Arts, which gave him a good idea for improving the design of his Mithril Artifacts!
