After dinner, at the Elf Mansion training ground, I was to learn how to deal with the unclamped beating on the Sergeant. It's usual for me to be coached with you, too, but when they learned something amazing, everyone came to visit.

But I came to see it, and the day after day of training would have been something interesting there, even as a spectacle, with Satti showing me her flashy standing around, but this time she shouldn't even know what she's doing, rather than plain.

This is Mr. Elf's mansion, no matter how much he treats his husband. I can't help but see it because it's boring if you want to see it. I can't really say.

Well every time, I'm the only one who doesn't like a lot of people...

Prepare the light equipment of the wooden sword and leather armor and line up with Satti in front of the Sergeant.

"The easiest thing is to keep some distance and relate"

It's really easy. The ring was too narrow for today's qualifying round. You can't use it if you have a distance, because a clapless beating needs to be made in an instant with a gap between them. And starting tomorrow, the ring will be wider.

He says if we take some distance and set it up at this time, we won't basically eat it.

But that's not exactly the only effective way to deal with it.

"Get used to it. Identify it."

Suddenly the difficulty jumped. It is the first time that there is a lot of impotence.

I couldn't help but be stupid, so I was going to have them demonstrate me first.

Place your sword and shield firmly against the Sergeant.

I've seen it twice, and I know what type of move it is. I don't even think it would be that easy to eat... but while I was thinking about that, when I accidentally thought Lord Sergeant had moved, a ton of wooden swords were touching my shoulder.

"Oh...?

I don't really understand what happened. Shouldn't have missed a moment's attention from the sergeant in front of you.

I'm not talking about being alert or unintentional. I knew it was coming, and I couldn't prevent it. I actually feel stuck in a fox when I try it.

I don't even know the sergeant's bottom around letting him use it like he deserves.

"If you do it again and again and show it, you should be able to get used to the movement and prevent it. We can hang out all night if we have to."

Apparently there is no specific countermeasure to this.

"No, I don't need that much time. I understand now."

You grabbed something in one go, that's what Satie said and took turns with me. That's pretty confident.

The two of them relate. Both sides were relaxed, so powerless that I didn't even think I'd be fighting anymore. But I know Satie is a lot more focused with a serious look. I wonder what I can do when I concentrate.

The sergeant's lord moved - a candle sounded, and Sati's sword bounced up the sergeant's wooden sword.

I exhaled and Satti relieved the tension.

"Wow, Sati..."

"Yes!" he turns happily here.

"I didn't expect you to prevent it just because I showed it to you once."

No, really.

"How did you do it, Satie?

"Listen to the movement with your ears."

That's what I said and moved my ears tingly.

Audio detection... I have detective skills too. Different kinds, but worth a try.

"I beg you again, too."

Fully open signs perception, relative. Though it's increased in level and accuracy, it's inherently a skill to detect a wide range. Whether it works or not. If this doesn't work, why don't I take a hearing detection, too?

The sign of His Sergeant in front of me swayed.

Coming. Middle stage, torso - too much, stopped the wooden sword with a shield.

The Sergeant looks surprised. Why are you such a surprised face you didn't show when you were Sati...

"Master Masal is amazing too!

Satti rejoices as much as I do, patting me on the hand.

Unlike Sati, it was quite remarkable.

"I didn't expect you both to try to prevent it so lightly... I'm surprised, I'm really surprised"

Thanks to my skills. Satie wouldn't have prevented me one of these days, but I wouldn't be able to do it without a sign detection.

But can you also use signs detection in off-the-shelf melee combat? I tried not to use it much during the fight because it would distract my attention.

"Well, we have no idea what that means."

One of the elves who was attached to Satie's training says so with his hands up.

Well, I guess so. From the edge, Sergeant Hall takes a casual blow. We prevented that normally. If you've never eaten, you'll find it hard to understand what's going on.

"Let's do what we want"

"Ha, please!

Nearly twenty people lined up hoping, including Anne and Ellie, Lilia and Syrah. Sergeant, I hope you keep a good eye on me and Satti, and I'm going to slap you one by one.

Of course I can't prevent who I am alone, and I am surprised or flabbergasted. Some of them weren't convinced and they were doing it a second time, but the same thing. It's not that easy to figure it out.

I've been watching it closely but nothing seems like a determined mould. Is it enough that there is some commonality between the time and the movement of the feet?

"You know what I mean?"

"I feel like I can do it somehow"

Sounds like you could really do it when Satie says it.

While we were talking about that, the madness happened. Lilia only tried it again and showed it to me preventively.

The elves cheer me up. Lilia herself didn't seem to be able to react, after all, but the Spirit autoguard was activated. A tournament is, of course, a defeat.

But I can think of a lot of ways to deal with it without being bound by a situation called a tournament. You can crush it with magic and skills, and it doesn't have to be one-on-one. It doesn't seem more threatening than I thought, because we won't be the first to fight human opponents in the first place.

Let's call it a day.

At the end of the day, Satie and I had it done a few times, making sure we could prevent it and the instruction was over. Well, I was pretty suspicious, but the main thing is Satie, and that's fine.

"Thank you, Sergeant. Thanks for your help."

"Thank you, Sergeant!

"This is in my job, too. Meals are a treat, too."

"Come anytime you like for about a meal. Welcome."

Not mine, but this much is fine. We provide more ingredients than we eat.

"Then let's say we come next with a celebration of victory"

"Yes, I'll take care of it!

Satti answers well.

The Sergeant went home satisfied with his expectations.

"Should we do some more?

I'll drop you off, Sergeant, and then I'll go back to the training ground and ask Sati.

I would also like to try a few methods of combat that utilize sign detection.

"Yes, I've got a lot of fatigue and I want to move my body more"

What Satie did today was fight four. All almost instantaneous, including losing. Postprandial instruction was also extremely light. That's lighter than usual practice. I guess Satti isn't enough.

"Come on, let's just sweat it."

Do you want to go home and go to the dojo anyway? Is the gate... not here? I have Ann's friend. It's a hassle. Can I stay here?

"Good luck to you all. After that, just me and Satie will practice, so please dissolve it appropriately. Ellie, I'll take care of the rest. You can go back."

"Okay."

When I only speak to Ellie, I turn back to Satti.

"Let's do it."

Satti nods. It's the usual practice to do it now. I don't need a meeting in particular.

Set up and hit it. Setting it up with me is the usual way to start. Satti smiles, receives, and strikes back. Take it easy. Satti should never guess that it's normal practice.

I can't afford to screw a bee the last few days if I think about it. Practice a painless sword with Sati is fun. I am not the person to lose my hand, but even if I make a mistake, it will stop me, so I feel safe and secure.

Satti has been working flashly to incorporate the results of the last few days of special training, but since she's been attached to the special training, that's within her expectations. Take it with no problem, take it.

I also wave my sword while activating sign detection. It helped to prevent slap-free beating, but when it is a normal battle, it is interruptive because it feels so visual and sensory. Besides, body movements can be traced, but weapon movements end up being visually dependent. Not very good.

I sweat a little, rest where my breath is coming up, and ask Sati.

"How user-friendly is hearing detection?

"Right. Increased movement also increases the number of occasions when you look away from the target, but does it feel like you can cover it..."

He said he didn't even have to watch the weapon move to find out. However, when it comes to rioting, the accuracy drops as fast as possible. So far.

Even for Satti, he had no experience actively incorporating it into melee combat, and said he would be able to use it more if he got used to it.

Do you want me to take your hearing detector too? I can't afford the point at the moment, but if I sharpen my extra skills, I can't take it either. For example, Summon Level 4 has not been used at all so far.

I don't even know what to think. Reset. Lower Summon Level 4 to 3. Take auditory detection to level 2.

I'll try to activate the auditory detection.

"Hey, Angela's husband is not a wizard..."

Oh, the chatter in a remote place sounds pretty clear.

"Hmm. Isn't the sword amazing?

"We watch the tournament every year, but it's definitely a level where we can fight in the main battle. Now that magic... magic power too?

"Masaru is one way or another, magic is more of a business. You said more than an elf."

"Angela's right, Masaru's magic takes us elves far -"

The eavesdropping is funny, but it's not the point.

Wave the sword. Move your body. Step on your feet. I do hear sounds. However, that is all. The image of sound and movement is not linked. Not because the level is 2, but I guess this is another matter to learn from experience.

I'm not saying it's useless, but it's not ready to be used. I need to practice for a while.

"Satie, I sweated, and it's time to end this?

There's going to be some healing magic practice, and I can't be doing it too late when I think about tomorrow.

"Um, it's my day, so more practice if you can"

Speaking of which, did it look like that in rotation?

"Then I'll do more."

Turn to Sati while activating auditory detection.

But this audible detection, when activated, sounds like a wooden sword candle hitting my head. I wonder how Satti is doing at level 5 or something. I'll have to ask you later.

I've been doing this for a while now, and I gibbered it up. It is the limit of health.

Ann's friend Rosa was on her way home, apparently, and returned at the gate to the village mansion with Ann and Syrah, who dated her to the end.

Me and Satie go straight to my room. I decided to see the restorative magic practice later. The diary is behind us, too.

"The bath..."

"You can say it."

"I need to take my armor off."

"It's okay, it's okay."

Me, too. I have a game tomorrow, and I was wondering if I'd drain my health here. If Satie asks me to go up there, I won't be able to stand it anymore.

Push Satti down on the bed, carefully hitting the leather armor, and carefully hitting the body still upbeat in the battle earlier...

Ask them to teach you about hearing detection while washing away sweat and such in the bath. They can provide some directivity or sort the sounds they hear.

Satie doesn't seem to know either, but it doesn't seem like she just picks up the sound with her ears. I'm sure there are some magical elements to what is the only thing. Otherwise, as soon as you increase your sensitivity, you may damage your eardrums.

But I tried to get it by the thought of it, but it's unlikely to be effective immediately in battles such as anti-slap measures. It would still be better than summons level 4, which was completely useless, and I decided to use it for a while to see how it went. It's easy to eavesdrop and stuff.

I decided to get out of the bath and also practice some healing magic before going to bed.

Sit on the bed in your pajamas and face each other, reconfirming how you've been practicing so far.

"Maybe I don't have the qualities..."

"It's been about the third day since we started, right?

Normally it takes about a month, I guess.

In the meantime, let them do the same thing you did with Anne and show it to you.

Scratch yourself with a knife at the tip of your puffy index finger, yeah, roar and activate the magic. It is, of course, a failure.

"You're too powerful. Take a deep breath and stand back more relaxed. Yeah, yeah. So I imagine. The wound heals. Images of healing and returning to your original fingers"

"Image...... Image"

Fushi and magic disappear in vain. The little scratches are going to stop bleeding already and heal naturally even if left alone.

But is there anything else about how to hurt your finger more than once? It doesn't feel good to see Sati's fingers stabbed again and again. Call Per Will a training and beat him appropriately...... just how bad is that?

Oh, should I do it with mine?

"Satie, give me the knife."

Yes, and he honestly gives me the knife. Push the knife you receive into your palm and put more effort into it. I get scared when I hesitate, so I blurt all at once. Ouch.

"Ahhh!?

Satti made a small scream.

Blood creeping out of the wound on his palm. That hurts a little. Though the sergeant has beaten me many times and I have been able to endure quite a bit, what hurts is painful.

"Satie. The only person who can cure my wounds right now is Satie. Leave me alone and I'll bleed too much to die."

is a situation in which

In this way, Satti will be desperate.

"Yeah!?

"Calm down. It's curative magic. Sati's magic is scarce. You can't fail again and again. Focus."

"Yes, sir"

Did you scratch a little too deep? Something's bleeding so bad...

Accept with a towel that blood is about to overflow from your palm. It stains red as the towel looks around.

"Heels"

Failed.

"Heels!"

Another failure.

Satti is teary-eyed and biting her lips.

"I'm fine. It comes with God's protection. Absolutely masterable. Drain your strength. Just gather a little magic."

The blood is still flowing and the red stain on the towel is getting bigger and bigger.

Did you cut the blood vessels? I'm starting to get a little nervous. Satie, hang in there!

"Yes...... image. Image of healing. Absolutely..."

Failure.

Failure.

Failure.

Sati's MP is about to run out. If this doesn't work, heal your magic charges and wounds with a miracle light, and you're done for the day. I thought I could.

"Satie, it's the last time."

"Ah, the magic..."

I guess I found myself running out of magic on the bottom.

"Please, please. If you can't, Master Masaru will die. So much blood."

A fine grunt that you would normally never hear is heard by auditory detection.

Yeah. Because I wouldn't die to this extent. But did he say he was going to die or something and hunt him down a little too much?

"Heels!"

There's magic gathering in Satie's hands.

[Small heel] activated.

It did activate. The pain is gone, too.

"Go... did you?

I guess Satie felt handy, too.

The wound was no longer clean when I wiped the blood with a towel all the time.

"Yeah, it's success. Well done, Satie."

That's what I'm gonna say. I'm gonna pound your head.

You also have a good level 1 skill. Now there will be no more failures.

"Good. There's so much blood... I don't know what to do..."

You're relieved or I cried.

"Look, I don't cry. From now on, even if I get hurt, Satie can fix it."

I also had a hand that I could use in the game. I can't expect much of an effect if it's a small heel, and I can't show it to you because it could be noisy for an animal man to use magic, but I'd rather have more hands to hit.

"Please don't do this anymore"

Says Satti as he wipes the blood off my palm with a wet towel.

"Yeah. Sorry, Satie"

I didn't think you'd bleed so much. Satti would have been bad for Sawdust's heart.

"But I believed Satie could do it."

Embrace Satti all the time if you say so.

"Good luck today, Satie"

"Yes, Master Masal. Good luck with your qualifying tomorrow."

"Well, you just have to hang in there."

"Really?

"Like Lord Sergeant and him today, the world seems to still be full of strong guys, and we've only learned our swords for about six months. Sometimes I can't help losing."

I've been here seven months. I bought a sati for about six months.

"Six months... you're only six months"

"Yeah."

"Twenty years later..."

"Twenty years later,"

Even if the end of the world comes.

"Even for decades, I've always been on Sati's side. Promise."

We still have plenty of time. We'll figure it out. I'm sure.
