Mary Kleine's POV
A few minutes ago,
"Mnhh, it looks like I fell asleep in the dojo again." I rubbed my eyes, and right now I am laying on the mat of the dojo with a wooden sword as a pillow.
For the past few days I've been training a little harder, and it's taking a toll on my body so much that after practising I can't even move a single muscle, let alone walk.
So I just sleep in the dojo to save energy and ti.
Sniff sniff
"Haa, I stink." I sniffed myself. Last night, after completing the training, I fell asleep without even taking a bath. I was covered in sweat, and now I sll awful.
Rustle
I stood up on the spot and straightened my posture.
"I should get a bath now." Thinking about these, I made my way out of the dojo. There's no one in the corridor or kitchen; usually mom is there preparing breakfast or sothing, but not now.
"Maybe she's upstairs." I made my way upstairs towards my room; mom's room is exactly opposite mine.
Step step
Chatter chatter
[How is it?]
[Why is this fire so violent?.....]
"What's that?" With every step I took towards my mother's room, I heard so faint voices,
Peek
"Huh?!!!" But what I saw inside was sothing that left speechless. Right now, inside the room, Ren was sitting in a chair while Mom was interrogating him like so criminal,
I heard everything they said—even the part where Ren confessed how he isn't over the fact that we broke up. That made oddly satisfied.
[Ruu, make sure you ditate to calm your mind a little.] Mom said,she looked pretty concerned about sothing that wasn't her job,
' irritating.' I thought,
Tap tap
Ren was about to leave, and that brought out of my stupid thoughts,
'I have to hide.' I thought, if he saw right now then it's no good.
Fush
I pushed mana into my legs to strengthen them and jumped high enough to reach the ceiling. Gripping on the lamp, I balanced myself like a spider up there.
Step step
Ren ca out of the room,
"Huh," and for so reason he stopped right at the place where I was a mont ago. He looked around like he was confirming my presence. My heart was beating fast with each passing second.
To my good luck, he never looked upwards. "Maybe I am just imagining things." Ren said to himself as he descended downstairs. After he was out of sight, I also jumped down to my forr spot, and then I entered my room,
Inside the room,
"Whoa!!That was close,I was flabbergasted,"Just a mont ago, I thought Ren was going to notice . ,
"His reflexes are sharp; I never thought he'd sense the mont he got out of the room." I said to no one in particular,
"Why was he here in the first place?" I asked myself,
It's been bugging for so days?"
After Ren announced the annulnt of our engagent, he never once showed his face to , making a little nervous about his behaviour. for a split second thought that he might've been serious about this, but after hearing him talk to my mother, one thing was for sure:
"He can't stop loving ." When Ren said that he didn't want to accept it, it made more confident about the fact that he wouldn't leave alone, so I can focus on my training and be a worthy rival,
"Just you wait for Adam Stales,"
...
After those strange giggles were heard from Mary's room for the whole day,

Ren Hilton's POV
"Let's go," I said to Blaze as I left my house. Marylin asked to co a little early from our daily appointnt ti for so reason.
"She said that today is an important day or sothing along those lines." Blaze reminded of Marylin's words; he is hovering around , and I think it's fine since there are no people around to see him this early morning.
Sigh
A lot of things happened yesterday, including Marylin's outburst about my spell's nature. I sohow managed to get myself out of it by lying, but I am still not sure that it'll go as smoothly as planned.
After coming back, I practised my spells a little and was surprised by how quickly I got the hang of it.
"Only a few spells like fireball, body strengthening, and inferno bolt were the only ones that I was able to pull off successfully. I have to train hard." I said as I kept walking ahead, "I am sure that the more I put in the effort, the more it'll bring good results."
Thinking about this, I chatted with Blaze as I kept walking in the direction of my forr fiance's house.
"It looks like we are here." Blaze said as he quickly shot inside my chest, vanishing from my sight and settling near my mana core.
As I neared the distance between the house and , I pressed the doorbell.
Ding dong
"Coming," said the voice from inside,
After a few seconds the door opened and Marylin stood in front of . She was looking gorgeous as usual, but right now for so reason she is wearing a light leather armour that covers her torso and so joints. Her hair was tied in a tight bun with so strands brushing across her cheeks.
"What's the armour for?" I asked if she's going hunting, in which case her attire would explain everything, but I don't think that's the case.
"We are going for so practical training, rember what I said yesterday?" Marylin said as she stepped outside the threshold and closed the door behind her that, according to her, today is a "big day." She ant so practical training.
"Well then, where are we going to practise? Don't tell you want to use my fire spell in your backyard; that'll surely cause so trouble." I said, I am still not sure if I'd be fully able to control my power.
"Ah no, I have a great place in my mind, so don't worry and make sure you sit tight." Marylin said as she rubbed the spatial ring on her index finger,
"Sit tight?" What does she an by that? ain't we supposed to walk?
Poof
Suddenly, a long brown stick with so long, hard hay on one of the ends popped out of her spatial ring. There were several ruins carved onto the wooden surface of the broom stick and the saddle.
"How's this?" asked Marylin as she grabbed the broomstick in her right hand,
'Hoho, I haven't seen those in a while.' Blaze chid inside my mind; it seems like the flying broom has piqued his interest.
"Am I supposed to ride that thing?" I asked, and truth be told, I am hesitant to ride sothing that looks so'Broom-like,' I thought, how's that weak-looking stick supposed to handle our weight,
'What if it breaks in the middle of the sky?'Blaze said inside my mind, he is just increasing more reasons to not ride that thing, and I know that he's teasing ; I can clearly imagine his laughing face.
Nod nod
Marylin nodded to affirm . She tilted the broom horizontally and sat on the saddle.
