Chiyu Mahou no Machigatta Tsukaikata ~Senjou wo Kakeru Kaifuku Youin~

The night of the day after I fought with Leona-san .

I was still training alone at the training ground .

The training was not so intense, it was quiet and slow, which was different from my usual method .

Strike without wasting unnecessary movement .

The legs should be half a step away, the sides should be tightened, and the fists should stick out not only with the arms but with the whole body .

Muttering to myself, I slowly and powerfully stick out my fist .

[Usato-dono, you should start by fully grasping your power . ]

Ark-san and Leona-san told me that I was using too much power .

Certainly, I must have been swayed by power .

Until now, I didnt think that was a problem because I had defeated the opponent only with pure raw strength, but for opponents like Leona-san who are toying with me only with pure techniques, Im as good as a sitting duck .

No matter how I look at it, its a straight fist thrust .

In the end, it became a stance like a straight fist thrust used in karate, but Ark-san says that it is this position that can make the strongest blow .

Put your feet on the ground? Easier said than done .

With the image of transmitting power by twisting the body, finally hit with a fist .

Ark-san compared my fist to a mallet .

Although its large and powerful, it was an attack to blow away people .

And what I should aim for from now on is a blow like a spear that pierces .

Attack that sticks into the opponents core instead of spreading .

[Dont just make your opponent fly . One blow, thats all you should ideally do . ]

The other party will surely lose consciousness, and even the defense will be easily destroyed Thats my current ideal attack .

Fuh

However, that is difficult .

It is impossible to change what Ive been doing in a short period of time without changing my mentality .

Of course, I dont think I can do it well from the beginning .

In the first place, my talent for fighting and swords seems to be average, and I still have to do it steadily as before .

Well, everythings a challenge right .

There is no shortcut to training .

There is no waste in the accumulated training .

The trained muscles do not betray me .

In other words, what I can do now is to continue to train honestly .

When I took a deep breath again and tried to hold my fist again, something fell from the sky on my shoulder .

Hmm? Neah?

You sure are training in a relaxing manner .

When I looked over my shoulder, there was Neah who had transformed into a black owl .

Looking at her with her wings folded, I took a breather and put in my fist .

Whats wrong? I thought you would hole yourself in the library after dinner

Ah, uh, yeah . I found Usato on the way, so I came to see you . Since youll be training alone .

Oh my bad for being such a loner .

I said with a little sting in mind .

So what are you doing?

What? Obviously Im training .

O rather, Im asking what kind of training youre doing .

A rare Neah was interested in my training .

Although shes usually interested in it, what caught her attention?

A training to . . correct my posture I guess? The mystery to win is to acquire a one-point intensive healing punch, so Im returning to the basics to acquire that magical fist I think .

Uwah, what kind of awesome name is that Concentrate on one point, in other words, the other person will die . Specifically, therell be a huge hole in the place where you hit . What kind of technique is that? One where you kill and revive the opponent immediately?

Of course not !!

What kind of god-like technique that transcends all sorts of things!

Its too scary!

This is also a training that seeks to control my strength, so it is also to eliminate such worries .

Control of power huh . Well your order is all messed up . From my point of view, isnt that the first thing you should be learning?

Well, when it comes to me

Your eyes are swimming around

Ugh

I was more like training to run, not to fight, so I just couldnt come up with the idea of controlling power .

While making excuses inwardly, I take a deep breath and squeeze my fist to my waist .

Take the left leg one step forward and take a half-body stance .

Hah!

While exhaling, I stick out my right arm squeezed to the waist .

The fist drawn out from the waist position makes a half turn and cuts the wind .

I slowly pulled back my fist and pulled my leg, and I released my tension .

Neah, who was watching me like that on her shoulder, nodded in a meaningful way .

Im not sure how to put it, but it doesnt look like brute force anymore .

I wish that were the case, but I still have a long way off

What we are doing now is mainly to correct my posture . Eventually, I should be able to do this even in combat .

Oh, how strong does Usato want to be in the end? If you dont weigh yourself, youll become an even higher monster than a monster .

What is a thing above the thing

Rather, Im already a monster

I had never thought about it in the end . After all, as a goal, I want to grow to the extent that Rose recognizes it, but if I were to combine it with the current training .

I want to be able to attack by reasoning according to the situation .

If I cant break through with just my strength, Ill punch them once after seeing the opponents attack with my eyes, and if my opponent cant understand just by reason, punch them with all my strength .

In other words, it would be good if I could use them properly and fight .

In my words, Neah places wings on her mouth as if thinking .

It should never be compatible

Isnt it impossible?

For that purpose, I have to be able to do another training with Leona-san .

Its not difficult because that person has some experience .

Well, youll have to do that much if you want to be able to win against that dragon man called Karon .

Thats right, but I dont think I can win alone .

Im not proud .

No matter how far I went, I was just a person whose physical ability deviated . For me, there are many things I cant do .

I have friends I can rely on .

Is that including me?

Huh? What are you talking about? Why are you even asking that question?

After putting it into words, I regretted it .

It was because I realized that I had said something quite embarrassing to my partner .

Why does my mouth move in reflex?

Ne-Neah?

Neah, who was a little down in my words, went down from my shoulder and stared straight at me in the form of her vampire girl with black hair and red eyes .

Whats wrong?

After all, I thought I had to say this

What?

What would you say again? I have no idea at all .

No way, does Neah not even think of me as a companion, was that the case? If so, it would be quite a shock

Thank you

However, contrary to my belief, the words she said or more precisely muttered were to thank me .

I couldnt understand the meaning of her words and was bewildered .

Eh?

Though Im the cause of this, please take responsibility for me .

.

I ruminate her words in my head, I approached her silently and put my hand on her head .

U-Usato ?

Aside from her embarrassment, I poured healing magic with a stern look so as to wrap her head .

Neahs eyes lifted up as her cheeks were burning red .

Wha-! I dont have any fever!! You seriously are rude !!

Eh!?

Why are you the one whos surprised !!

Neah shook my hand away and resented her anger with nowhere to go .

Maybe she honestly wanted to thank me ?

No, I was surprised that you were able to thank me honestly I thought maybe something was wrong with you

To worry about me in a roundabout manner really pisses me off

Ah, Im sorry, its my bad .

When I apologized to her, she crossed her arms and turned to me, perhaps because she was in a good mood .

However, the day will come when I will be grateful to Neah .

Because shes not a straightforward child, I thought she would never say such a word, but did she grow up as she traveled?

Rather, did you think I was someone who would abandon you? Its a little out of my mind .

Thats not true, but Usato has an important trip, and Amako has the purpose of helping her mother it was best to abandon me there

Thats a bad move . Ill never move forward if I have to cut ties with my friends .

If I had abandoned Neah there, I would definitely regret it .

Probably she feels guilty enough to drag her for the rest of my life .

I dont like that, and Ive already thought of her as a member of our traveling companion .

And I think Falga-sama knew everything?

I got a feeling too . It seemed almost meaningless to hide in front of him

Falga-sama let me choose .

I dont know what that means, but I can say for sure that he didnt force me to fight to the end .

Well, if you eat poison, youll get blood . As long as youre a friend, or as your servant, must take responsibility .

Whats that Im poisonous you say?

Its all about accepting you, including all your problems .

When I said that, Neah became silent leaving me with those words .

Eh? Is the meaning different in the first place?

Well, it must have been transmitted in terms of nuances, so I guess its fine?

I stretched back on the spot and relaxed my arms . Even though I had dinner, I was tired of doing the same training from noon .

Nnnn, Im about done anyways, lets head back to the castle .

Ahh, yeah .

?

For some reason, tilting my head and wondering Neahs words at that time, we proceeded toward the castle .

Then, before I knew it, Neah had transformed into an owl and flew silently over my shoulder . Im a little about her quiet demeanor, but I didnt let it bother me so I entered the castle with Neah .

While walking silently along the passage of the castle for a while, I found a maid holding a wooden box from the front .

Oh, Usato-sama, and Neah-san, right? Good evening .

Good evening . What are you doing?

We exchange greetings and watch her wooden box .

It looks like there are a lot of empty bottles in it, wait are those potions?

The maid has a slightly depressed look from my doubtful look .

Its an empty potion bottle . Im disposing of what Norn-sama used .

Is Norn-sama alright?

Only Norn-sama can play the role of maintaining the barrier of Mia Rak .

She took first aid with my healing magic, but it wasnt perfect .

Shes a person who has a stronger sense of responsibility than anyone else Shell complain in a soft tone, but shell never actually give up . Actually, the effect of the potion is insignificant . Before Usato-sama came, she was really close to her limit .

Really

When I first met Norn-sama yesterday, she certainly looked in a terrible state .

Her face was lifeless and the dark circles were under the eyes that I cant believe she could still stand .

I cant do anything about it . Norn-samas will is solid so all I can do now is take care of her surroundings .

Why did you stay here?

Why didnt this person run away like the rest?

The same can be said for the people who remain in this castle other than the maid .

Simply put, I couldnt leave Norn-sama and Leona-sama alone I was told to run away with everyone, but I noticed that I have to remain here .

Did Norn-sama and Leona-san initially intend to fight here alone

Theres also Falga-sama, so its probably three people, but its still reckless .

Did Falga-sama know that we were coming from that point? Its possible, its okay for him to wait in advance .

They are too stubborn . They would have relied on us who are a little closer to them, but they said they could do it all on their own Leona-sama is even more reckless than Norn-sama

The maid who got angry enough that I can hear a pun pun onomatopoeia . However, that anger was also purely worrisome to Norn-sama and Leona-san .

Is Leona overdoing it?

Maybe it has something to do with Falga-sama calling her Hero Leona yesterday . Why did Leona, who holds the title of hero, say that Karon was supposed to be a hero At present, its a topic that I, an outsider, cant get involved Hmm .

Oh, thats right! I was thinking of asking you the next time I met you!

Yes? What is it?

The maid talked to me if she remembered something when she saw me groaning annoyedly .

For the time being, she nodded and pulled out a piece of paper from her skirt pocket with a smile on her face .

It was a slightly brownish paper .

The letters were written tightly, and in the middle of it was a large letter, with big fonts something

This is !?

This article, if Im not mistaken, had a big impact on my heart .

Oh my, I feel a little sick, so Ill head back to my room okay!?

Amakos precognition magic also grasped the situation at a deep blue speed and tried to withdraw, but at the same time my body was tied up by the restraint magic activated by Neah on my shoulder .

I suddenly got stuck, I was so upset that I couldnt break the restraint magic and became rigid .

Lets hear a little more . Right, Usato~

Ne-Neah You betrayer !

Eh? What ever could you be saying? Anyways, what does the maid want to ask Usato about?

Looking over my shoulder, I saw an owl with a sinister face .

The maid was inclined to our exchanges, but she returned to a smile with a single voice of Neah and showed me the carefully folded paper .

I found it this morning! This is Usato-sama! A healing magician who vowed her future with a hero! The caricature was completely different, but Im very interested in it!

The maids words that did not make me feel any evil pierced my spirit deeply .

The article that was shown was an example of Inugami senpai and myself .

When I was being shown head-on, I was so shocked and embarrassed that it repeatedly made my face deep blue and bright red .

Ha ha ha, its just a rumor . Im not suited to the hero .

Uuuun . Is that so lets leave it at that for the time being .

Although I could barely deceive her, the maid still stared at me with suspicious eyes, and the next moment she returned to a smile and politely held the article in her hand .

Did- Did I manage to fool her ?

How dare you senpai, attacking me directly from a far distant place .

Moreover, there are some strange rumors such as I swore my future to him!

What is this? Has this already been known all over the continent? It was too embarrassing and I have the urge to roll around the place !?

What does senpai in distant places think about this?

I exchanged light words and broke up with the maid, and with a small sigh, I walked down the aisle illuminated by the light of the magic tool .

At the same time, it seems that there was senpai who was rolling on the ground and writhing with a grudge voice saying Dammit ! .
