13 Shattering Palm (1/2)
The moonlight and stars beyond seemed to exist just for this moment. The beautiful wind fluttered her hair and taking off her cap.
When the cap dropped to the ground, Karina finally snapped out of her trance and pushed Lyon away. The both of them didn't say a word for a whole minute, however, Lyon's mind was occupied with fear.
(Oh shit SHIT SHIT SHIT!! I'm so dead !! The F*ck did I just do?! I just kissed her like that? not that I mind though).
A shade of red appeared on Karina's face as she tried not to look at Lyon in the eye, but she still stealing a glance.
(She's so cute and beautiful..) thought Lyon.
”I..” said the both of them at the same time.
”Y-You first...” said Karina.
”I-I'm sorry ....I-i-i didn't do it on purpose!! please forgive me!! you can punch me or anything just don't kill me yet.” said Lyon while lowering his head.
Karina chuckled seeing his expression. She then turned her backs on him and said: ”It's alright, I don't need to kill you or anything. It's just that ... that was my first time kissing a male. I guess it's special in its own way.”
Guilt was the only thing Lyon felt where he was supposed to feel relief. Hearing the maiden said that with not so high or low voice made him realize that in the end, she was a really strong-hearted woman.
Then Karina faced the night sky and said: ”You owe me one for this, and not a single word about this comes out to the crowd.”
Lyon was in a trance seeing her like that, only the word 'yes' came out of his mouth.
”Alright let's end today's training and get back home, AND don't be late for tomorrow's training!!” said Karina smiling while turning to Lyon.
”YES!” said Lyon while smiling back.

The sun once again illuminated Nostria.
Jugen was still in the bedroom recuperating along with her sister Karina. ”Big sis, you looked like a girl in love for some reason.”
*Bang
”AHHHHH!”
Karina then broke his leg then said: ”What did you just say?”
”I-I said nothing.” (Aih, how can I heal if you keep breaking my bones)
Karina got up then walked out of the room, only to see Lyon already waiting in the backyard. Then the two of them started to go to the jungle and trained.
This had been going on for Lyon in the past three days.
”I'm going to teach you a skill,” said Karina
”Oh what skill?” said Lyon.
”It's a fist skill since my primary weapon is gauntlet after all.”
Karina then stepped back and punched a tree with lightning speed and then struck her palm. She only used two motion to activate the skill, a punch then a palm.
*Boom
