Background[]
Isolte accompanies Reida to the Holy Land of Swords at the request of Gal Farion. In the Asura Kingdom, Isolte has no equal among her fellow disciples of the Water God Style and has become arrogant which saddens Reida as she sense that in the past year, Isolte hasn't grown at all despite taking her training seriously but in conceit. After Gal and Reida propose a bout between their students, Isolte exchange introductions with Nina and Eris then she first fights against Eris. Despite Eris' speed being in the top 10 among the students of the Sword God Style and strength close to Sword King Ghislaine Dedoldia, Isolte defeats Eris to the point where she is unable to land a hit on Isolte but Nina defeats Isolte with 1 hit as she could not sense any bloodlust from Nina's attack and could not counter attack accordingly. Gal and Reida then have an agreement that from dawn to noon, Isolte, Eris and Nina will train with their respective teachers then from noon to dusk, the three will practice and train together.[1]
One month later, a strange triple deadlock has formed where Eris beats Nina, Nina beats Isolte and Isolte beats Eris. On one of the three's discussions, Isolte points out that Eris' constant release of blood lust is something the Water God Style can easily counter while Nina points out that the release of blood lust is unnecessary as long you are the faster one. During this time, Isolte admits that she feels getting stronger with Eris and Nina's help and is having fun as it is her first time having discussions with people of her level and age. [2]
When Reida dies after the events in Asura Kingdom Arc - Part 2, Isolte becomes the new Water God.
After a few years of training in the Holy Land of Swords, Isolte is invited to the Asura Kingdom to be a sword instructor in the Silver Palace and tells Nina that should she visit Asura Kingdom in the future, she will give her a tour. During this time, Eris has reached Sword King rank and is also leaving for Sharia, Ranoa Kingdom. Before they depart, a letter from Rudeus arrives and Isolte reads it for Eris. Isolte then tells Eris to join her to Asura Kingdom instead of going to Ranoa and berates Rudeus for even asking Eris to become his third wife. Isolte then reads the second paper which is a postscript of Rudeus challenging the Dragon God Orsted which causes Isolte and Nina to stiffen up in fear on the words challenging the Dragon God Orsted. Eris smiles upon hearing this and gets on her horse and tells Ghislaine that she will be late if they don't hurry while Isolte and Nina sees them off with a dumbfounded expression. [3]
