194-Master's Master




 After that mock battle, Amira asked Nix, who was the deputy clan leader, to teach her a lot of things and later went around to apologize to her former clan members. The former clan members were surprised that Amira had apologized, but most of them accepted the apology.

 But some were not happy with Amira's too late apology, so it was not a quick fix. And the same clan member, Leleia, did not accept the apology either.

 After that, the interpersonal practice between the major clans continued to be practiced against each other to break through the eighty levels. Garum, the main tank of the first army, as well as Xeno, was biting at the idea of following him. Daryl and Hanna of the second army may have been inspired by this, but they are able to practice interpersonal combat with a moderate sense of urgency.

 And during the joint practice with the Silver Beast, Tsutomu could be seen asking Lorena to help him practice his interpersonal combat skills. Incidentally, Korina, the prayer warrior, also tried to join the practice, but Tsutomu politely refused when he saw the spiked sphere weapon she was holding.

 Afterwards, even the bare-handed Korina was able to combine and joint him, and even Garum looked dumbfounded.


'Why do you have to be so reluctant? If you make sure you fight the monsters like you always do, you'll have a chance to win.''
Well, I'm a sober guy.
But I'm not sure even bare-handed Corrina can be beaten so easily.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry...
'Garm, you need to soften your language,'


 Tsutomu looked at Korina, who was bowing her head apologetically, and stared at Garum with half-eyes. But he crossed his arms as if to say that it was none of his business.


'It's bad enough that Tsutomu is so hepish in the first place.
Yes....
'The security is still good for now, but it could get worse at any moment. We'd better be able to fight at least as well as Corina.
Come on, man, it's not a problem. So what do I have to do to protect it? I'll do it!


 Amy interrupts between Garum, who urges her to do so with a stern look, and Amy interrupts her. Tsutomu laughed at her offer and then popped his shoulder from behind.


'I appreciate the offer, but I'll try to do it myself this time.
Oh, that's good! That's good! I'll protect you, okay?
It can be scary, actually, and I want to do what I can. It's just that I'm free.


 As for support recovery, he wouldn't be that slow in his normal practice, and he was going to ask Zeno to teach him how to practice his fly, but he couldn't afford it right now. So it was also true that Tsutomu was not hand-held, so he was going to work on his opponents' fighting until he became somewhat competent.


You are really an amateur when it comes to fighting against people, so you are all like masters. I look forward to working with you in the future.''
"Master's, Master......... I'm Master's disciple, I'm Master too...? But they're all masters, aren't they...


 Hannah, who had been listening to Tsutomu's talk behind her, was making a dickish face as she moved her blue wings about. Then Tsutomu began fumbling with his magic bag.


I mean, Hannah is in the lowest position. So go buy some juice from the stall now.'
'Master!'
Here's your money.
Oh, you're rather serious, aren't you?


 Hanna, who was handed a golden currency of various shapes, G 《Gold》, looks like a chick that fell out of a nest.


The first time I saw it, I was in the same room with him. I'm going to ask for mine, too.
You take care of mine.
'Wow! I'm off!


 As she folded up, Amy and Amira told her that, Hannah left the training ground at a terrific speed before Tsutomu could stop her. The blue feathers that came loose fluttered in the air.


'I should have asked for it too,'
Make him stop.


 Diniel said with a clear face, and Tsutomu returned the words quickly as he turned in the direction Hannah had left.

 And when Hannah returned a few minutes later, Diniel asked for some juice as well, and she went to buy it half-heartedly.

 In the midst of all this, the joint practice went on, and Melcho, who had broken through the eighty levels by himself, even though only once, joined us. However, the mock battle between Melcho and the clan members of the Infinite Circle quickly became the talk of the town, and the public training grounds were filled with spectators.

 However, the mock battle with Melcho, who has been fighting against people for several decades, was a moderately good stimulus. Zeno had a look on his face as if he had grasped something, and Hanna, who is also a fist fighter, seemed to be interested in the fist of the demon stream.


''Hohoho. That was scary.''
I wanted to get rid of the bullet.


 The most talked about of those mock fights was Diniel's match. As it turned out, Melcho ended up winning, but he still fought well enough to make him bleed.

 As for Tsutomu, he was smitten with Hannah as he saw Diniel, who was doing his best, lose. Then Diniel approached the two of them and grabbed Hannah's head between his fists and gulped it.


''Even my master is an accomplice!
I'm taking it out on you.
This is going to make things worse, isn't it?


 However, Tsutomu didn't expect Diniel to fight with all his might to the point of sweat, so it was a bit surprising.

 And so, a month had passed since they began to practice together in a major clan. And Aldoret Crow's army had finally broken through the eighty levels.


 -▽▽▽-


Oh? You're as good as ever~


 In the living room of the Clan House on holiday, Amy was resting her head on Diniel's lap pillow. Diniel had a slightly larger cotton swab in his hand and was cleaning the cat's ears with it.

 Diniel is a good ear scratcher. However, that was a skill that he originally learned to touch the animal ears. So he offered to scratch Garum's dog ears to touch them as well, but he refused because it was enough to have him take them off at the store, and Daryl ran away with his dripping ears covered with his hands.


'Hmmm~. There~
Stand still.


 But his ear scratching skills are great, and Amy sometimes wriggles around comfortably. And Diniel also looks kind of happy touching the thin cat ears, so it seems to be a win-win situation.


'Shh!'


 Beside her, Hannah is holding an even smaller version of the rubbish demon stone between her fingers and gingerly crushing it. Then he lightly cut his hand and healed the wound with a cheap and tasteless potion.

 Hannah had become interested in this thing called the Fist of Demonryu during her mock battle with Melcho, and now she was practicing lightly. By the way, the other day, she crushed a small demon stone in the God's Dungeon and made her right hand explode. Since then, he has been practicing with magical stones that look like grains of sand under the guidance of Melcho.

 However, the demonic fist is a skill that many skilled people have worked hard to master, and Melcho seems to be having a hard time with Hanna's bird's head. When he shattered the medium magic stone and exploded into four pieces while saying he could make it in the divine dungeon, Melcho, as expected, was holding his eyes as if he was dumbfounded.

 Garum, Daryl and Zeno have been running in the morning even on their day off, while Amira has been going back to her parents' house to have a mock battle with Camille. And Corina seems to have been taken in as a recovering officer.

 And Tsutomu is in the process of adjusting and confirming the PT while looking at the materials, as Aldrete Crow has broken through the 80th level. The Infinite Circle will soon be taking on the 80th level of the hierarchy as well, so the confirmation process is very serious.

 Next to Tsutomu, a girl in earthen clothing sat down next to him. She is an earth spirit gnome who has not signed a contract with Tsutomu for nearly a month now.

 When it became clear that she would not respond to sitting next to him, the gnome took up a position in front of him with a very innocent movement. Then, as he placed his chin on the desk to peer at Tsutomu's work, a light blue viscous creature pounced on the gnome's face.

 An Undine, a water spirit. From behind it, a small fairy looking sylph and a lizard salamander flying through the air with its head moving as if in rhythm with the rhythm. Leleia was following the four great spirits with a panicked look after them.


''Sorry........ Once the gnomes came out, the other spirits followed them.''
No, that's okay.


 Leleia has been giving the spirits magic stones since morning. But the spirits seemed to have come out en masse, starting with the escape of the gnomes, who had gotten into trouble for their recent lack of attendance.

 The sylphs twirled around his face, and the salamander was flipping out like a DJ. The slime undine seemed to have swallowed and melted the earthy gnomes. Seeing the undine that is like a slime mixed with mud, Tsutomu asked Leleia, pulling back a bit.


''It's dissolved as hard as it can, is it okay?''
''Yes. The spirit that exists here under contract right now seems to be a temporary form, and the main body is different, so I thought it was okay.
Heh.


 Tsutomu replied to Leleia's words with a dour look on his face. And as Leleia made another contract with the gnome, the girl revived with her hands raised.


'Is this the gnome's default now?'
That's the way it is, isn't it? But we have an even greater affinity for each other than before.
You should be happy.


 Tsutomu is holding the head of the gnomes who are clinging to him, and Leleia closes her eyes and answers him nonchalantly. The salamander is above Tsutomu's head with his mouth hanging open, and the sylph is flying around with a smile on his face. Undine turned back to light blue and settled into Tsutomu's right pocket.


'I guess things aren't going well with Amira yet.
..........
'I'm not asking you to forgive me for being sorry, but don't cause me any problems.
I know, sir.


 As Leleia tells him with a clear face, Tsutomu lowers the salamander from his own head. The fact is that there is still a feud between Leleia and Amira, although the PT leader of the second army, Daryl, did not tell us about it.

 This is no longer a problem that can be managed by talking about it. But the second team is also working well with Daryl, so I was hoping that they would do well if they could. Perhaps if Korina worked well, the second army PT would be good enough for the eighty levels. In terms of strength, Amira, who has recently grown in terms of battle power, and Leia, who is strong against people, would be enough to provide firepower.

 In particular, since Amira has a unique skill called Dragonization, she is a good match for spirits. For this reason, if you can work well with Leleia, you can make a pretty good PT.

 She also caught the sylph that was pulling Tsutomu's black hair like a maneuvering lever and returned it to Leleia, and she went upstairs with the spirit with a hard expression on her face.
