Chapter 69 - #68 Sparring (2/2)
[Charisma: 34 (41)]

I instantly switched my special class, knowing what is about to happen next.
”Well, what a pleasant coincidence indeed, Gil, Dora~” I turned around and greeted both maids with a playful smile and closed eyes with a spread arms.
”? Are we that close for you to call me that?” Gil suddenly stopped approaching me and muttered with a thoughtful expression.
”Hello” On the other side, Dora seemed to be dragged here by Gil. She just greeted me with a little bow and closed eyes.
”Of course we are, Gil~ After all, we are about to beat each other up, aren't we?” I asked with a wide slightly crazy smile.
”?! Haha, although I like women much more, I am quite fond of such straightforward men like you!” Gil was slightly surprised how easily I guessed her intentions but she immediately started laughing with an excited smile.
”...” Both Dora and Chelsea retreated a safe distance from us, crazies, while looking at us with a weird look in their eyes.
”Hehe, how about not wasting any time and we start right now?!” I shouted at her and kicked into the tree next to me. The tree broke in two and I immediately wielded it as a weapon and jumped above Gil while swinging the trunk of the tree right at her head with a crazy smile.
”Oh?! Haha! You aren't all talk after all!” Gil seemed a bit shocked before she formed the same excited and crazy smile as me and instead of dodging the tree, she decided to punch it.
*bang*
Upon the impact with Gil's fist, woodchips immediately flew everywhere around, revealing Gil standing there with a confident smile while cracking her knuckles.
I was pleasantly surprised by her strength because I could even feel the impact in my hands and it didn't feel like she used her entire strength.
”Hehe...” I started to chuckle a bit before I once again rushed to her, this time intending to use my own fist to explore her strength.
”Head-on confrontation this time?! I like you more and more, I just hope you won't die from this! Haha” Gil shouted and waited for me to attack and when I punched out she followed after me.
After a few seconds after the impact of our fists, the ground behind us started to shake and suddenly the ground behind each other was flattened.
We were both staring at each other with wide-open eyes, surprised that we were equal but we both instantly smiled at the same time.
We punched out with our other hand in synchronization and the same thing happened once again with the exception of lesser damage to the environment around us.

Both of us were trying to overpower and push each other but no one was moving a bit so we stopped trying to push each other with fists and instead, we held our hands together and tried to lift each other but both of us were holding our own ground.
She is equally strong in terms of raw power, she is perfect for leveling my Yato class!
”HAA!” She suddenly shouted and I felt that her strength became even higher but I was still able to keep my legs on the ground with great difficulty.
*Shake* *Crack* The ground under us suddenly started to violently shake.
We both looked down with a curious look before the ground under us opened itself and big Danger Beast surfaced from under the ground, blowing both of us some distance away.
The earth type Danger Beast looked already enraged probably from the disturbance it felt underground but I and Gil who had our fight interrupted were even more enraged.
”Don't...interrupt!!!” We both shouted at the same time with an upset expression while punching its large stomach. The impact from both of our punches together made its upper body separate from its legs, blowing it some distance away while destroying a few trees before it hit the mountain in the background, fully painting it with red color.
---On the side---
”Ugh...they are lost cause...” Chelsea commented with a defeated expression.
”Well, as long as they have fun, everything is fine. Gil also looks like she is having great fun.” Dora said with a small smile while calmly observing them easily killing the Danger Beast.
------
When we killed the Danger Beast we just glanced at each other before losing interest in our fight.
”We were already interrupted, let's continue this later. And I also misjudged you.” Gil suggested with a slightly annoyed expression before she looked at me with a small competitive smile.
”Sure...It seems that your strength is not only a bit higher than other girls.” I replied with the same smile before turning around, walking towards the small forest in the mountains.
”Huh? Akashi, wait! Where are you going?” Chelsea instantly shouted at me with a confused expression.
”...Meditate” I turned around with a small smile and replied to her question with a calm tone.
---
'M-Meditate?! After what you have done here?! Who would believe you?!' Chelsea thought with an irritated expression but she no longer pursued Akashi.
”Let's go back to Mera-sama” Gil suggested with a dreaming smile.
Dora immediately nodded with a similar smile but Chelsea despite nodding too, she would rather run away.
---
When I entered the small forest I went right in the middle to sit down in a cross-legged position while leaning my back against the tree.
Like this, I remained sitting still without moving a bit for a few hours with closed eyes.
