Some Training and Quality Time (Sophitia/Privet)

The sounds of flesh striking flesh rang thru the air in the training ground outside of Sol Terumis castle as the lord of the castle trained by himself and some of his subjects. Sol was in the middle of the clearing clad in only a pair of jeans with his blue markings across his face and upper body as he got into a stance to train. Across from him were two Minotaurs both much taller then him and larger as well. “alright come on ” Sol said as the two lager monster rushed at him. The first one opened with a haymaker punch which the dragon fluidly dodged by bending backwards before the second one knocked his feet out from under him and caused Sol to land on his back.

However before the minotaur could follow thru and stomp on him Sol quickly did a kip up and delivered a powerful kick to the minotaur causing it to be knocked back. Before he could follow thru the other one grabbed him in a powerful hold but Sol struck the beast in the thigh in a pressure point to make its leg buckle and he released him before he swiftly turned around and knocked the beast in the chest before knocking it away.”this is nothing perhaps I should just train alone” he muttered as the two minotaur slowly got to their feet.”you two go get some rest we have been at this for a while” he said as the two bowed to him and left. He had been training with the two for at least four hours and his body was showing the signs of continuous fighting as he was covered in sweat and he had a grin on his face as he stretched a bit and brushed his back off as he caught his breath and smirked.”its good to get some exercise in, never know when I need to go into battle ".

Despite being mostly a Vice President Sol still had to do darker jobs on occasion when he took on his alias Reaper of Onyx Moon. While Sol tried very hard to behave and atone for his sins he knew he had to vent his darker emotions or they could cause trouble for him later.

Sophitia had received an invite from the man she had met within Rose Garden, it had seemed strange to the red headed teen. The reason for this was because she had yet to really interact with anyone and those she did interact with seemed to go missing shortly after, it was quite upsetting to her. She was kind of starting to take the rejection as personal and even thought about of heading back to Celestia believing her family correct, still when she got the invite she found herself thumbing the envelope wondering if she should even bother going. They had only met once and even then it had been brief, she knew her family wouldn't agree with what she was doing, but at the same time it was her duty as an angelic being to lead people from the darkness. After fighting with herself over several hours she finally decided to accept and took to the skies making sure she remained out of sight of normal people.

It was a flight that took several hours from where her guild was located to the place he called home, she was use to flying for long periods of time due to her 'basic' training at home. Then again to get from place to place in her family home you pretty much needed to fly as walking would take to long, then not every place was reachable by walking which was fine for them. Getting to the castle she knocked a few times but found that no one came to the door, had she gotten the wrong place? From what she could see this was the only castle on the 'island', after a while she wondered if she should enter or just leave. Her eyes went to the invitation and so decided to enter, she could show this to anyone who would ask questions and if they didn't she would just put them down and continue. Taking the first into the castle she winced feeling the overwhelming demonic energy, she was still quite young and knew she could fall ill if she remained there to long.

Her eyes looking around as she walked through the corridors, she hadn't came across anyone so thought that the place might be abandoned that was until she seen a machine coming towards her. She stopped as it did taking aim at her, she couldn't blame it she was a stranger and it was protecting it's owners domain. "I'm not here without invitation, Sol sent me an invitation." she said cautiously moving forward holding out the invitation sure it could read common languages. "Could you take me?" she asked with a gentle tone watching as it lowered its guard almost motioning to its back, she was wary but understood what it wanted and so moved to sit side saddle allowing it to take her to where the master of the castle was. When they got to the training hall she patted the machines head gently watching as they trained quietly for a moment "All three of you are so very sloppy." she eventually called to Sol and his training partners.

She watched as he dismissed the Minotaur after defeating them "Your child not available for training?" she asked sliding off his companion, she wasn't joking when he said that his movements where sloppy and though far younger she was already an accomplished warrior, diplomat, crafter and even the captain of her own order. Her order was that of dragon riders so she trained with them in the air, ground and hand to hand on top of her usual angelic warrior training as all in her order did as they and their companions believed t was needed for the bond they held with each other. "How is your atonement going?" she finally asked remaining close to his companion not wanting to wander into another's training hall without an invite, the companion not going on its way until he was one hundred percent sure that the stranger was meant to be there.

Panzer was wary of Sophitia when she appeared but the moment she mentioned that she was not here without an invitation the metal beast seemed to relax and it sensed no ill intent from the woman and when she asked it to take her to Sol in nodded its metal head as it allowed her to hop onto it before took her to its master. When they got to the training ground and Sophitia called out to Sol and his training partner the dragon hesitated for a moment and almost took a punch straight to the face before he flipped his training partner over his shoulder and he turned towards her voice before he gained a very large grin on his face.

“its good to see you Sophitia!. Im so happy you accepted my invitation” he said happily. He had wanted to see her again. There was something about the angelic woman that made Sol feel very peaceful and the last time they saw each other he had a lot of fun with her. “I try to get better with every battle and every spar.but I didn’t realize I was making mistakes” he said to her comment of him being sloppy. He knew how to take criticism and he would use it to make himself better, it was something he found he liked now that he was away from Basilisk Fang. When she asked about Aguya not be available.”no he is currently busy at the moment but those two work in a pinch.” he explained before he saw her still being standing by Panzer and he approached with a small smile on his face. When she asked how his atonement was going Sol thought for a moment before he spoke.”it’s a slow but I feel that I am making up for my misdeeds but no matter what I do I get the feeling that my past will always haunt me no matter how much blood I try to get off of my hands” he said softly.

Sol knew he had done horrifying things and he had his whole life from when he was a child till he was an adult. But with his acceptance into the West Fiore Trading Company he was making effort to be better as a person and a mage.but even with that he still had a hard time outside of Divide Island since he was a notorious dark mage for a long time. Sol looked to Panzer for a moment before he gently touched its head.”did you bring her here Panzer ?” he asked as the machine beast let out a soft growl and Sol gently petted its head.”you did good thank you for bringing her here” he said as Panzer nodded and then it headed on its way.” so how have you been? I have been wanting to see you again but work has had me rather busy I was promoted to Vice President” he said sounding rather excited about his new postion.”it’s a bit tougher with paper work but I feel like Im doing good things in this company”
