13 At the temple training ground (1/2)

Chiyuki, my heroic companion.

In the training grounds of the knights of the Temple of Raina, Rage and Silone are lightly matching swords.

The swords are made of light wood for training.

The two are practicing their swords.

'That Chiyuki-san ......

Sahoko makes an anxious sound beside me.

'I know, I know. I'll make you stop if you feel any danger at all.

I say reassuringly to Sahoko.

Rage is being taught the sword by Syrone in case he might rematch with Dihardt.

Rage is still barely able to get up.

But it's not in his nature to sleep all the time.

He offered to learn the sword from Syrone.

When I heard that, I was surprised.

I did not expect this man to want to learn martial arts.

He was an amateur in the martial arts.

His parents had tried to get their son to learn some kind of martial arts, but no one had been able to teach him as he had been the same personality since he was a child.

I've heard glimpses of people in Rage's home, and it seems that they were too cocky to beat him to a pulp in front of his employers, and no one would teach him martial arts properly.

What's more, Rage's athletic ability is exceptionally high and he is strong even without doing anything in martial arts.

That's why Rage didn't seem to be actively trying to learn martial arts either.

In fact, it's surprising that he's so strong without doing anything.

That's why Rage wanted to learn the sword. Apparently, the fight with Dihardt had given him something to think about.

This must be a very good influence.

Rage has that much talent, and if he learns, he will be able to go higher.

As a kid, but as he grew older, Rage never lost a fight.

I read something in a book that said sometimes defeat can make a person grow.

I think that Rage, who had mastered the martial arts, would be able to beat Dihardt easily.

No one can beat a hard-working genius.

But Sahoko naturally disagreed because her body is still not in its true form.

So, I practice on the condition that if I see something dangerous from the side, I will stop practicing.

Why me, apparently, because I am the one who sees things calmly.

Well, aside from Sahoko, who is against the practice, I don't think any of the other members of the team would be able to play this kind of role.

There was a part of me that thought of Rage as a hero who wasn't an ordinary human being, too, and I might make Rage do something reckless.

That's why I'm the stopper.

Sirone teaches Rage how to grip a sword. She teaches him to hold everything softly and to put force into it for that one moment of slashing.

Watching from the side, I also learn a lot.

However, Shirohne says that she is not a good teacher.

As Cyrone himself says, he is not a very talented kendo teacher.

His teaching style is also awkward.

Besides, training has its own particular drawbacks in this world.

That's because we've become superhumans.

For example, let's say we try to train with weights.

If you try to train with dumbbells that are equivalent to 100 kilos, they are very light.

Even a powerless Sahoko can lift about 100 kilos with one hand.

There is nothing in our world that is the equivalent of 100 kilos in a good size.

So you can't do any weight training.

But then, training becomes a skill.

However, Silone was also not as physically strong as Rage, but perhaps because of his physical abilities, he didn't have much skill to hone.

Moreover, it seems that he was away from his home dojo for about two years, so he has a blank. As a result, he is limited in what he can teach.

I let out a sigh. I'm sorry Sirone, but Rage is motivated to do this anyway. I think he needs a better teacher.

Sirone's instruction is progressing, albeit poorly.

Rage is also honestly taking lessons from Shirone.

Rage's face is more serious than ever.

You can't help but gaze at a good-looking Rage with a face like that.

'Thank you, Sirone.

Shirone's face reddens a little when Rage says with a fresh smile.

Isn't that too close to the fact that Sahoko is watching?

When I look to the side, I see Sahoko has a slightly grim expression on her face.

It's a good idea, or rather, it seems to be bothered by the close contact between Reige and Shirone, and the face has become amused.

However, it seems that Sahoko is not the only one who is concerned about it. We weren't the only ones in this practice area, but about 20 women who worked in the temple and citizens who were allowed to enter and leave the temple came to see Rage.

They had heard that Rage was recovering and had gathered there.

This training ground was located off the main hall of the temple, so they were able to enter it relatively freely.

That's why there are quite a few women in attendance.

Frankly, I have to kick them out if they interfere with my practice.

But to be honest, I'm not happy with her because she's like a woman who chases away the bad bugs that swarm around her boyfriend.
