1
On a stormy night with wind howling and rain pouring down.
2
Huh?
3
Egbert?
4
What happened to you?
5
Who didn't see you, Egbert?
6
Sister, father, please don't make me go back to that academy.
7
I'm...
8
I'm scared.
9
Tell me!
10
I swear I'll make them pay for this!
11
That's enough!
12
Guards, bring the young master inside.
13
As for Lady Era, lock her in a room.
14
By the dim candlelight, Era found herself imprisoned in the domestic arts room, forced to embroider, cook soup,
15
and learn how to smile sweetly.
16
The Killian family had once been a renowned warrior lineage,
17
Back when Lord Andbert was still strong enough to wield the family's ancestral sword and shield.
18
After a brutal campaign, he was gravely injured.
19
With no choice, he passed the two sacred relics to his only son, Egbert.
20
Huh?
21
Out of the way!
22
Leave him!
23
It's time he grew strong enough to carry this family's legacy.
24
Huh
25
Egbert had always been teased for looking like a girl too fragile to even lift a weapon
26
Meanwhile his twin sister Ira Gillian had shown outstanding talent in combat since childhood Egbert you can do it.
27
I believe in you I'm so useless.
28
I'll never be as capable as you this kingdom favors men girls Don't say that!
29
We each have our own strengths.
30
You're a genius in medicine, remember?
31
At age 18, despite his reluctance, Egbert was forced to attend the Royal Academy.
32
And everything that happened at the beginning of the story was the result of their first semester at the Academy.
33
On the day Egbert had to return to the Royal Academy, the rain still hadn't stopped.
34
Let me come with them for part of the way.
35
You two better not bring shame to this family.
36
I have no other choice left.
37
When they were just a few miles from the Academy gates, a gang of bandits suddenly ambushed them from the forest.
38
Swords and spears clashed, screams all through the rain.
39
Despite his best efforts, Lord Anbert, still weakened by an old wound, was quickly struck down and collapsed in the mud.
40
Father!
41
spinning blade without hesitation era threw herself in front of her
42
brother to shield him in a split second of stun silence
43
era gripped the sword's hilt it fit perfectly as though it
44
had been made for her you you summon the killian blade era stood tall unyielding and braver than ever.
45
Father, let me take Egbert's place in the academy.
46
Under a transfer spell, the family's sword mark passed from her brother to Ira.
47
Her eyes gleamed with determination.
48
Egbert, keep the shield.
49
They'll both protect his family in our own ways.
50
This is a potion I've been working on for three years.
51
You might need it someday.
52
They hugged each other, each about to take a separate path, as if fate itself had destined the twins to part ways.
53
The road ahead was anything but easy.
54
Even though she had braced herself for it, Iris still found it difficult to adapt.
55
Before this, Egbert had been bullied for being too fragile and weak compared to the other boys.
56
But now, all the teasing, harassment and attacks were aimed at him, and even more brutally, because she was a girl.
57
Well, well, pretty quick on your feet, huh?
58
Already better than your coward of a brother.
59
So it was you!
60
Enough!
61
Erechillian, minus one point for causing trouble.
62
But it was clearly him!
63
No boss, you'll stay behind and clean this entire hallway before returning to the dormitory.
64
You know why, don't you?
65
Like any teacher would dare mess with the heir of the Queen Mother's family. So naive!
66
In that moment, Mira knew this was only the beginning of her trouble.
67
Training equipment would mysteriously be damaged, yet instructors turned a blind eye and made no effort to find the culprit.
68
During a forest trial, her entire team abandoned her, forcing her to survive alone in dangerous terrain.
69
Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
70
Eheheheh!
71
And when a valuable antique belonging to the headmaster was found broken near her room, no matter how much she tried to exploit,
72
Ira still ended up being disciplined.
73
But unlike what Basil and his gang expected, Ira did not break.
74
She didn't complain, she didn't grrrrrrrr!
75
She simply gritted her teeth and endured it all!
76
When her efforts paid off, Ira's performance outshone the male students in the academy.
77
Physically, she wasn't any weaker.
78
Basil wasn't done yet.
79
During the paired sword practice, he secretly changed the schedule and bribed Ira's assigned partner just to get paired with her.
80
This time, unlike before, Basil didn't hold back.
81
He attacked with full force, no longer caring about appearances.
82
Even though Ira had excellent technique, her body lacked the stamina to withstand Basil's relentless strikes, as forceful as crashing waves.
83
Huh?
84
Within minutes she was knocked down, her sword slipping from her hand.
85
Ha!
86
Is that all you've got?
87
I may have lost today, but it won't be forever.
88
I'll get my revenge at the upcoming royal hunt.
89
Oh, I'm looking forward to it.
90
Everyone knew Basil was a scumbag, but no one could deny him.
91
He was also a skilled warrior.
92
At the end of the year royal hunt, Basil quickly took the lead with his unmatched archery skills.
93
Ira entered the forest with full confidence in her own marksmanship, until she discovered that all her arrows had been talented with.
94
There's no time to go back for replacements.
95
What if I...
96
She removed the string from her belt, tied it around three arrows and fired in three directions.
97
The string coiled mid-air, forming a live trap that captured wild beasts without harming them.
98
Rather than killing, she cleverly captured her targets, a strategy no one else had thought of.
99
On the leaderboard, Ira tied with Basil.
100
The headmaster was about to declare a draw when...
101
Wait, look closely at my final prey!
102
He dragged out a wounded female wolf he had hidden.
103
Basil knew wolves mated for life.
104
If the male sensed its mate in danger, it would go berserk.
105
The most important thing was to surpass Eera and claim victory in the hunt.
106
A thunderous growl flowed.
107
A grey blur burst out from the depths of the forest.
108
A male wolf.
109
It charged forward in a frenzy, attacking anything in its path.
110
At first Basil stood his ground with confidence.
111
But in seconds, as the male wolf lunged like a tempest, his sword snapped in half.
112
The wolf didn't stop.
113
Bloodthirsty and wild, it barrelled toward Basil again.
114
I...
115
I don't want the She-Wolf anymore!
116
Get back!
117
Stay away!
118
In that razor-thin moment between life and death, Ira didn't hesitate.
119
She summoned the Killian sword.
120
It exploded, the blade sharp enough to slice the very air.
121
One single slash sent a powerful gust that knocked the male wolf back, buying just a few precious seconds.
122
Ira had no desire to harm the beast.
123
She rushed to the injured sea wolf's side and pulled out a vial Egbert had given her.
124
The only hope left.
125
One drop, two drops, the whole vial emptied.
126
The she-wolf flinched, then slowly breathed again.
127
She staggered to her mate's side.
128
The pair turned back, gave Ira a slow graceful knock, then disappeared into the woods.
129
Basil began to stir, saved by the very person he'd once scorned.
130
Why did you save me?
131
I only did what a true member of House Killian is meant to do. That sword?
132
You could summon it?
133
Then why didn't you use it when I bullied you before?
134
The Killian sword wasn't made to punish childish tantrums like yours.
135
Haha, the little scuffle already hurt? So weak!
136
Ira received the highest honor from the king, standing proudly before the entire academy.
137
Surely that's not all.
138
Come now, tell me, what reward would you like in return?
139
Your Majesty, I ask for nothing, except that my brother, Egbert Killian, be admitted to the Kingdom's finest medical academy.
140
The hall fell silent, and then came the sound of thunderous applause.
141
In the years that followed, Nira became the first female captain in the Kingdom's history.
142
Brave, honorable, and gifted.
143
As for Egbert, in a heartfelt letter to his sister,
144
he thanked Ira for stepping into the storm and helping them both live as their true selves.

Guia Passo a Passo para Shadowing

Para aqueles que desejam melhorar a pronúncia em inglês e se beneficiar do shadowing em inglês, seguir este guia pode ajudar na prática de conversação em inglês, especialmente com o conteúdo do vídeo.

  1. Assista ao vídeo sem legendas: Tente absorver o contexto e a entonação geral dos personagens.
  2. Ative as legendas em inglês: Esteja atento às palavras e frases que aparecem para entender melhor o vocabulário.
  3. Repita em voz alta: Escolha pequenas seções do diálogo e repita imediatamente após ouvir, imitando a entonação e a velocidade. Isso é essencial para o shadowspeak.
  4. Varie a velocidade: Pratique com uma velocidade mais lenta na primeira tentativa e, em seguida, aumente a velocidade conforme se sentir confortável.
  5. Grave sua própria voz: Ouça suas gravações para identificar áreas de melhoria e refine sua pronúncia.

Esse método não só proporciona uma maneira eficaz de praticar shadow speech, mas também ajuda os alunos a se conectarem emocionalmente com o conteúdo, tornando a aprendizagem mais envolvente e significativa.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
