Bang!
The bamboo sword in Guina's hand fell to the ground.
She stared blankly at the black-haired boy who was sitting in the snow. His upper body was bare, and his muscles were slightly bulging, but his lines were extremely distinct.
At this moment, Guina seemed to understand why he was so powerful despite looking younger than her.
Ron looked at Guina with confusion.
"Why are you looking for me?"
Guina came back to her senses and remembered her purpose. She immediately bent down to pick up the two bamboo swords and said to Ron with a determined look,"
"I'm here to challenge you."
Ron scratched his head.
"Didn't we fight yesterday?"
"That was because I was too careless. Today, today is the day I will show my true strength.”
"Oh, alright then."
…………
A moment later.
The bamboo sword in Guina's hand was sent flying.
She looked at her trembling hands, gritted her teeth, and stared at Ron.
"Tomorrow, I will come again tomorrow!”
"Anytime."
said Ron, smiling at her with his bamboo sword over his shoulder.
Guina glared at him and turned to leave.
She had just taken a few steps out.
Ron's voice rang in her ear.
"Your speed is not bad, but your strength is insufficient. If this continues, you won't be able to defeat me.”
Guina suddenly stopped, clenched her fists, and bit her lower lip.
The lack of strength was her greatest pain. She had hated herself for being a woman countless times because women were naturally weaker than men.
And this difference became more and more obvious the further he went!
That was why her father, Koshiro, said bluntly that as a woman, she would never be able to become the strongest sword hero in the world...
"I know! I also know that my lack of strength is my weakness!”
Guina shouted with her back to Ron, her head lowered.
"But what can I do? No matter how much I cultivate, the growth of my strength can't compare to you guys!”
"If possible, I want to be a boy too!”
Her voice was filled with unwillingness.
Ron was stunned for a moment before he reacted.
"You seem to have misunderstood me. I'm not laughing at you. What I wanted to say was, do you want me to teach you how to increase your strength?”
Guina shuddered.
" A method to…increase my strength?"
She turned to Ron.
"Really…it can increase my strength?”
Ron nodded.
"Probably."
It's thirty days in the morning.
In the forest behind the dojo.
Ron handed Guina a grilled fish.
"Eat it."
"Eating it can increase my strength?"
Guina was confused.
"It can be considered a prerequisite."
Guina immediately finished the entire grilled fish. The taste was beyond her expectations.
"Are you full?"
said Ron, looking at her.
Guina nodded.
Ron said yes and began to instruct her.
"Then close your eyes and do as I say.”
Guina listened to him and closed her eyes.
"From now on, you have to follow my instructions and change your breathing rhythm.”
said Ron's voice in her ear.
"Phew, I have to exhale all the air in my lungs in one breath…"
What Ron was teaching Guina now was a simplified version of the Sun Breathing Technique.
He discovered by chance that he could absorb the energy of food very quickly by using the breathing technique after he was full. Although it could not directly increase his Vitality, it was very helpful in increasing his strength.
"How is it?"
Guina slowly opened her eyes when she heard Ron's words. Her previous feeling of fullness had disappeared and was replaced by a sense of hunger.
He clenched his fists.
It seemed like…his strength had indeed increased a little.
A hint of surprise flashed across her eyes.
However, in order to prevent it from being an illusion, she still stood up abruptly and ran in a direction, leaving behind a sentence.
"I'll go test it!"
"Hello,"
Ron looked at the figure running away and shook his head helplessly with a smile.
After a while.
Guina walked back in disappointment.
"It seems to be an illusion. I still can't lift that stone bell with one hand..."
Ron waved his bamboo sword and said,"
"It's not that fast to increase your strength. You can try again in ten days.”
In the next few days.
Ron seemed to have provoked him.
When Ron got up at four o'clock and went to the clearing, Guina was already waiting there with her bamboo sword.
The two of them had a duel first.
Then, they would train separately and not disturb each other.
When the sun rose, they went to the dojo to have breakfast, and then they learned swordsmanship from Koshiro.
Swordsmanship included footwork, movement techniques, holding a sword, drawing a sword, pulling out a sword, slashing, and so on.
In the afternoon.
Ron and Koshiro were holding real swords and engaging in actual combat.
Guina sat at the side and watched. The more she watched, the more pressure she felt. She often went out to practice by herself after a while.
……
The dojo seemed rather deserted in winter.
The children who came to learn swordsmanship stayed at home because of the cold and were unwilling to come to the dojo.
Occasionally, only some acquaintances from the village would come to the dojo. Usually, it was just Koshiro and Guina, but this year, Ron was one of them.
This place would only become lively when spring came.
