A Misunderstood Mentor

Lesson 172: Come on.

“Um, uh, what's it like today?”

A week after the Christmas party, 'She' came again.

Alice keeps telling me that she's clinging to my leg as usual.

"It's New Year's Eve, isn't it? I'm here to say hi to the New Year. Happy New Year."

Ah, congratulations on opening the door.

I imitated [her] and greeted her in the same way.

I have no idea what it is for.

Another world event over there.

'She' is trying to spread the culture of the other side in this world.

At the Christmas party, I decorated the cave with glowing toys, ate keiki and chicken, and chanted songs I didn't quite understand.

"Oh, that ~, I don't know more about New Year than Christmas, but should I ask you again?"

Yaa, cha-kumi, cum, yaaa

At the Christmas party, Alice clung to her legs with all her might without me.

It hurts a lot because of the strength.

If I hadn't trained, I would have broken it easily.

"Not this time." I didn't have a shrine here, and I didn't have all the ingredients I needed. I thought I'd at least give you this. Yes, Old Man. "

"... an elderly man"

Look at the small envelope handed over.

It's true that this is an event where adults distribute money to their children.....

"I'm a good adult, is that okay?"

It's okay, Takumi is like a cute kid to me forever.

Hah, hah, thank you.

I have no idea why [girlfriend] thinks of me like that, but I appreciate it here.

Recently, there has been a lot of expense in buying curry spices, buying miniature houses in Nurhachi, and so on.

I also prepared 72-pillar rice in the Demon King's Great Labyrinth (Labyrinth), so my savings seemed to be running out.

I don't have any income in particular, so let's thank you for this.

Yes, so is Alice.

No, no, no, no.

"Take it, Alice."

Eh ~

Alice inflates her pretty face.

"Then you can buy a new sword or something."

”Shin, are you kidding me?”

Ahh, the new one is cool

"...... Well then, paint"

Perhaps Alice convinced herself to take the new year's egg from [her].

“Thank you. How about that?”

Aigo and Ogo are so different

Peko, the bowing Alice is honest and cute.

When I stroked my head, I laughed, as usual.

[She], who is watching such an exchange, has a kind smile on her face.

Is that all you have to do?

"That's right, that's all I had, but I think I'll have a go at it." Looks like they're both getting pretty strong. "

Even though it's still a gentle smile, it's illusory that the temperature around it has fallen to below freezing point.

Alice, who was clinging to my leg, came forward with her hands wide open, trembling and still protecting me.

"Very well, Alice. I'll do it."

You can't beat Alice when she was the strongest man on earth.

Still, if I practiced, I wouldn't lose my life.

If only I could know what she's capable of.

"Are you a bare hand?" Or do you want to use this? "

Yeah, can you lend it to me?

[She] receives the wooden sword used to train with Alice, and gestures lightly.

No matter how I look at it, I still don't look like an amateur.

Can you lend me Alice's sword?

”Cha-kumi, are you okay?”

I gave my own wooden sword to [her], so I tried to borrow Alice's, but Alice stared at me with anxious faces.

You think I'm stronger than anyone else, but you're still afraid of 'her'?

"It's okay, Alice. You think I'm gonna lose?"

"No, Chakumi, it's homey!"

"Yeah, that's right."

Alice receives a wooden sword, a chi-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun-kun and

I didn't learn the sword from anyone.

I couldn't even ask the end-user to tell me.

But I can see that my gesture is a few steps higher than [her].

I have been training with Alice to imitate her gifted movements and eventually to become the most powerful human being again.

I can expect more than I expected.

Even if you look at me like that, [she] doesn't break her gentle expression.

You can't lose, but you don't feel like you can win at all.

This is how Alice felt when she lost.

"Cha-cha-chaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

I felt like I was going backwards, but Alice cheered me out.

I'm coming.

And she always naturally uttered the lines that Alice had spoken when she started the fight.

Yeah, let's get started.

I waved my wooden sword at [She], who laughed.

In response to my move, [she] moves slowly like a slow motion.

No matter what I thought, I couldn't defend in time.

Hit it!

The moment I was sure of that, the space quickly warped.

I don't know what happened.

A pleasant sound burst into my head, and the wooden sword of "She" struck me directly.
