Well, uh, you will have to wait so hours before I put up the part 2. I had this completed so I am posting it. I’m right now en route to RL work, so it would take ti before I post new part. Wait patiently~. Btw, it’s not a bonus chapter. Two more things before you start the chapter. The call in the title doesn’t an that Minato got himself a fucking Mobile Phone. It ans he is called by soone. The other thing, Volka has been renad to Volca, and so other words have been changed to. Don’t worry, I would change them all in the previous chapters, in ti.
Chapter 23 – Rank and Call
One morning.
In the vacant lands outside of Volka City.
「Yes, I’m beat」
「Au!?」
Holding a dagger (for training), making sharp turns Elk jumped at , I attacked her incoming leg......that’s what I thought, but Elk skillfully dodged it.
However, due to the trajectory before her jumping my elbow accidently ca cutting right in, hit the solar plexus, and Elk crashed down.
「That’s why during the evasion of an attack any careless jumping is prohibited. Especially if the opponent is agile and has great maneuvering ability. You have start your next action the mont you land on surface. While the ti you’re in air, basically unless you use floating magic, you can’t evade attacks」
「That is......Keho(*cough)! I do know that, but my body moved on it’s own」
「Well, there’s no choice other than letting your body learn it over ti. Let’s be patient」
「I see......Once again!」
Well, roughly it’s like this.
This is the daily routine of us both recently.
We wake up early in morning, wash our faces, get dressed, co to this vacant land, complete the warming-up exercises and then do sparring as called we called it, morning training.
Even though I say that, this is training for『Elk』only, it’s sowhat inefficient for it to beco my training.
In the afternoon of the day I t Noel-neesan and took the『Pass』from her.
After returning to the inn, Elk requested with a docile expression. 『I want to train』.
In short, she is happy that I have made a team with her, and it’s an honor for her that I trust her, but the current her and are not a good match.
She didn’t want to remain a comrade in na only, neither did she want to only keep on relying on .
She didn’t want to be a hindrance to , while going to various danger area or while doing various other quotes, so she wanted to get strong.
Well, I thought her ambition is good, and also hesitated in rejecting her feelings, so i agreed to her.
Though I had rejected her before by saying I can’t teach, still I’m here training with her.
This type of mock battle training is being done everyday.
We’re doing sowhat a real battle, so even if the ti is less the things she could are more, including that she learns more while harvesting and exploration, and presents them all here in this『Training』.
[AK: dont get the part... does it an she knew minato dont or she knew more after training...]
[ET: It ans she learns in the training and she also learns it during doing quests and whatnot. She even presents the new things she learnt in the quests and whatnot section during training.]
The portion she learnt there is presented here, gets improvent scores, continues training......this cycle is running.
This is the way of training I did with mom. The only thing I could refer to.
But of course, in my case it was a battle royal between mom’s sparring and demons of forest. That spar was a ultra-serious battle of about 30 min~ 1 hour long.
By the way, the monsters hunted, were either served as food in that day’s dinner, or stored in pantry as preserved foods, otherwise they would be given as fodder to many pets mom had.
In this training too, I can feel like Elk is getting stronger ti to ti.
Although it’s only my feeling while fighting her.
☆☆☆
After the sparring is completed, during the ti Elk is cooling down while reviewing her results, this is the ti I enter my training.
Though, it’s only weight and shadow training only.
It’s my daily routine since the ti from western-style house. Just in case, I’m doing it everyday.
My physical strength is more than enough, so for it to not decline, I have devised a sche in my training......to be honest, I can’t call this training to be efficient.
In truth recently –or rather, from sowhat before I left the house– , I don’t feel pain or anything doing push-ups or sit-ups.
Aside from maintaining the current condition, to get more stronger I need more harsher training, I can increase the number of tis of my current training but it would increase my ti, and also I have no other way too......
「That, can’t you do sothing about your habit of leaking out what you think?」
「Hm?」
Suddenly a voice from behind hits .
There Elk is standing while sending her beautiful reproachful stares at . Not good Not good, looks like I leaked out my words again.
And, the clothes she is wearing is different from her usual ones, no I haven’t seen her wearing it at all.
「......? What happened?」
「No, it’s just that those clothes suit you」
「R-Really? Well, Yeah, Thank you」
Right now, what Elk is wearing, or rather is equipped with is not what she usually wears, the nto of her mother low quality ready-made clothes......but, everything she is wearing is a brand new, order-made goods.
The hemp cloth with a feeling of oldness, has changed to a healthy and clean cloth. It’s texture too is different.
On her waist is another new robust looking leather belt.
And there is also the nto of her mother, that『Dagger』.
More than anything the main fascinating thing made with fine quality high grade substance is the armor.
Though it’s an armor, it isn’t sothing massive.
It’s a light armor. This covers the minimum important parts and helps in not restricting movent.
In my previous life’s RPG, only thieves would wear armor like that.
This refreshing green colored armor is, yes, sothing we requested Noel-nee san and ordered it at so trusted armor shop. It’s made from the scales and skin of the big-serpent –It’s got its official na『Naga』now– and also other materials.
At that ti she had said「Just tell if you need weapon, armor, custom-made article, everything is OK」, so I took her offer.
As expected, making custom-made armors and other things from monsters raw materials is popular among adventurers, so when we took our raw materials the shopkeeper admired the high level of the materials and full-heartedly started making it.
Along with that, we ordered other things to be made too, but that’s for so later date.
And, Noel-nee san who acted as interdiary between the manufacturers, told us that the sa type of articles in market cannot be compared to our articles. It’s weight is not more than a feather, but it’s hardness, strength and the pure iron inserted inside it cannot be broken easily. Demon raw materials are really aweso.
Incidentally, using the skin without scales, we had them to be processed into clothes like undergarnts.
At one glance, each and every is first-class goods that that a rookie adventurer would is not fated to get, only a veteran adventurer might be able to get them.
Yeah, it does look great on her.
But, the scales and skin of『Naga』were both green. After the manufacturing, it beca even more bright.
Inevitably, Elk’s armor and clothes are both green.
And, Elk’s hair and eyes too are green, so after being『Man In Black』, this ti Elk is becoming『Woman In Green』......but like I care
Well her clothes are green, her armor made from scales is dark green almost black you can say......there is not much difference in the hue, so it’s alright, probably.
Incidentally, for them brand new equipnts, the required money was given by to her as a loan.
At first I had thought of distributing the reward from『Naga』taking in the consideration of her financial conditions, this ti it wasn’t on whim, but stubbornly Elk didn’t accept it.
She said『You defeated it 100% that’s why it’s all yours. If you want to team up with , then do that work perfectly』. Well it’s sothing like her personality.
That’s why, with interest rate I lend her the money......though I’m praying that she forgets about it by the expiration date.
After all, though it’s needed, but I don’t want to do money lending and borrowing between friends.
It’s more natural to think of it as a present from a man to a woman, at least for .
Elk was against the offering the raw materials to be made into equipnts, but this ti I won.
I just said, If you’re going to team with , then you should have equipnt that I can rest assured that you will be safe.
She, who doesn’t think it’s good to rely on , naturally didn’t made a good face at my request, but there wasn’t any problem in my request.
It’s natural to think, that the other party who is going to be your partner should also have even if a little high survival rate. Even if it’s said to be overprotective.
And, when it was made,
「～～～♪」
......She seed really happy.
The green colored armor equipped on the arms and shoulder, and the clothes covering the body.
After all, as an adventurer, she must’ve have more or less admired these kind of equipnts.
Elk realized my eyesight looking at her with glitter in eyes, did get startled as bit, but without explaining or anything just turned around.
「W, Well I still think it’s beyond my ans to normally get it......but yeah I’m happy. Since the raw materials are high-class, so it would increase the survival rate」
「Yeah Yeah, it’s fine if you even think that」
Like that for a while, while Elk was getting rid of sweat from training, she looked at her right-now-praised equipnt with glittering eyes. Whatever she says, in the end she does like it.
Maybe, the cooling down exercises are so sort of stretching exercise, but to it’s only looks like she’s making a pose.
The action of the diligent and beautiful Elk in a perfect costu of both hue and design, looks like a fashion show to .
It has been 16 years and so months since I ca to this world, the mories and sense of values deeply rooted into , cannot help but look at the attire of adventurers as so sort of cosplay.
Though it’s imprudent to say, but. Let declare! It’s a sight for sore eyes!
While I was thinking this and that, before I knew it Elk stared at with reproachful eyes. Huh, did I again leak it out from mouth?
「Anyone would be worried, if you make a triumphant pose with a satisfied expression while looking at soone」
......Looks like I need to care of so bad habits inside .
Anyway, while coversating like that we both completed the preparation, and decided to return to City of Volca.
after we had our breakfast there, for so reason, we both needed to go to adventurer guild.
