"Any weapon you think of should be here."
Professor Keating said as he displayed the weapon filled racks in the training grounds.
Just by looking at them there were more than 50 types of weapons that were put into display.
Freljord provided a wide range of education as such the students were free to choose whatever weapon they desired.
A main weapon was exactly what it sounded like. It will be a life long companion that will be sticking with us.
The strong people perused better weapons and called them as "Treasured Weapons", while the weapons above the level of treasured weapons were labeled as "Artifacts".
The reason for my rebirth is also most likely is due the artifact that I swallowed before my death. I don't know what type of artifact so I couldn't quite surely say that it was good thing, I still didn't know if there were any side effects due to consuming the artifact.
Anyway, as the academy couldn't provide artifacts for everyone, they allowed the selection of normal weapons only.
"Stand in front of the weapon you want. We'll supply you with the training weapons. But don't look down on them just because they're training weapon. Their market price is around 20,000 Gilds."
There were all sorts of weapons, more so than I could have ever imagined.
Sword, spear, saber, dagger, rapier, halberd, great sword, Zwei hander, bow, a mana-powered gun, whip, gauntlet, crossbow, etc...
"The choice of primary weapon is crucial in laying foundation to your own fighting style."
"It's not a bad idea to test different weapons, Feel free to choose the one that you are most comfortable with."
With the permission from the instructor all the students started trying out different weapons.
It was only children from common background who are trying out different weapons as the Noble children would have access all type of weapons and were trained in the most suitable weapon from childhood.
So most of the nobles choose their weapons quickly and stood before them.
'This is indeed the best academy in the continent'
I felt that once again as I touched the weapons that were laying on the training ground.
'They provide us with such excellent weapons just for training! I think if sharpened, these weapons can also be used in real battles...'
Except the dullness of the weapons, which was intentionally made so to reduce injury between the students, all the weapons were of excellent quality which would be hard for even a common mercenary to get their hands on.
'She picked a staff as expected.'
As I looked at the students who have already chosen the weapons, I saw some familiar faces.
Julia von Rozental, as expected she had picked the staff.
Babel von Agnus, following his family custom had chosen a spear.
Zephyr, that bastard had also picked a sword.
Luna Primrose had chosen bow.
There were also some familiar faces among those that were contemplating to choose a weapon.
One among them being, Ezio.
On the outside he appeared as a child from common background, but his real identity was much more shocking that.
Currently, even Ezio himself was unaware of his identity as he only finds out about it much later in the future.
I didn't have anything to do with that, but I wanted to build a friendly relation with him, Afterall he was the infamous Reaper of red moon, in my past life.
'In the future, he will create a medium sized guild all on his own that specialized in assassination and information collection.'
There was nothing to lose being friendly with the future guild master of 'Shadow Hands'.
"I think this suits you better."
I said as I went near him.
"Huh?"
He was surprised as someone whom he had never met was approaching him and advising on the selection of weapons but he seemed more surprised the weapons in my hand.
It was a pair of Chakram.
A circular weapon with sharp outer edges except for where it was held. It was a weapon which was incredibly difficult to wield.
But I know Ezio would be able to handle it.
Honestly, Ezio chose a pair of daggers as a main weapon in my previous life but after six months when he felt the limitation of daggers, he changed his main weapons from daggers to Chakram.
In a way, I doing a favor to him by saving his time of six months.
"....Who are you?"
He asked me carefully as currently he was someone from the common background, he couldn't harshly say anything without knowing the identity of the other person, it would be problematic for him if the other person turned out to be a high ranking noble.
"Oh! Sorry, let me introduce myself, I am Eren. Eren Pendragon. I saw that you were having a difficulty while choose a weapon, I just wanted to help out. I think these suits you very much."
A dangerous weapon like Chakram suited weak and pale looking Ezio? What a load of bull crap!
Even I wouldn't believe it, if it was someone said that to me!
But Ezio was different. He didn't say anything in opposing to me and just took the weapons from my hand.
It was great surprise for me about how different Ezio's original personality was compared to what was known in my past life!
He was kind, humble and a feeble kid.
As he took the chakram from my hand he started to test them out.
-Sweee...
-Sweee...
As expected of the Reaper of red moon, he could wield them skillfully, although there were little clumsy movements, it could be improved with constant training.
"Thank you, I think this indeed suits me."
After testing it some more, he said with a slightly brighter expression, which was really hard to notice in his expressionless face.
"No problem, I am happy that I could be helpful."
Got to keep up the good act in front of him.
"Are you going to pick that?"
Ezio asked seeing the weapon which was in my hand.
