Pride of the Assassins

Part 7 Lesson 2

...**(Related back)**...

Without changing her expression, Kufa stared at her palm for a while.

It seemed that this carefree woman knew nothing. He did not know about the current situation that the two of them were in.

Not only Melida and Elise As their teachers, even Kufa and Rozetti were assessed and analyzed for their grades. Until they manage to do this, they will face many problems and criticisms made about them. 'Which of them is better?' just a general question.

If he understood this completely, there would only be one answer.

—He cannot lose. With a woman's pride at stake, she couldn't lose even this woman.

Kufa finally smiled. Pulling his hand back from hers, he slapped his hand without faltering.

As if unable to believe what had just happened, Rozetti blinked his eyes.

“Ap, Uh, wait, What .....??”

“What a pity, I can no longer allow myself to be more friendly with you than this.”

“Ke, why? Wh why? Wh why? Why!?"

A happy and lucky woman like you would only be a negative influence for Ms. Melida.”

“Happy-lucky—!?”

Rozetti's screams echoed throughout the tunnel.

With tears streaming down from both eyes, Rozetti began to get angry at Kufa.

“What do you mean by happy-go-lucky what do you mean by happy-go-lucky! You didn't say anything about it last time! You were a good man then too! ”

"The past is the past. Talking to strangers and analyzing opponents is also an act that must be mastered by a gentleman.”

“How.....How can you say this to me, you son of a bitch!! Even after I felt so touched! Even after I really thought that such a fairy tale prince really existed! I can feel my heart pounding too!”

"What's? It was as if there was such a pure prince out there. Please keep your fairy tale to yourself after twelve, Ms. Kindergartener.”

“AH, AH, AH, AH, AHHHH!! I'm so upset!!”

Witnessing the sudden plot of a comedy twist in romance, the two noble ladies stood up uneasily.

Ahhh, AHHHHHH......!” H, how did it become like this.....?”.

After all, things could not continue like this anymore. As serious as ever, Melida boldly took a step forward.

"Stop right there! Let's do this Eli!”

“Eh.”

"Well……"

Turning back, the two of them blatantly faced each other. Melida whose face was flushed looked at Elise whose expression had not changed, gulping.

“Um.”

“Uh, Um, you know, that...”.

"What should we do?"

"No way!! Cut it! I demand repetition! ”

Melida flapped her hands while shouting out all her might.

“Sensei! Please stop acting like a spoiled child!”

A switch flips in both sensei.

“I also think that sensei is to blame for this one. It is not good to talk rudely about others

"Um .... I'm so sorry."

The young girl was completely blamed. As he lowered his head, Rozetti smiled.

Kufa turned her gaze and raised her hand. He landed a clean slap into Rozetti's ass, creating a beautiful sound.

“Owwwwww—! Wait, that's my ass! A pervert! It's sexual harassment!”

"Then, miss, this bastard is starting to get noisy so let's go now."

“A, what do you mean by bastard! You sadistic man! ”

Kufa put her hand on Melida's shoulder and turned around.

“Hopeful day, Elise-sama. And um...... Miss Priketsu?”

“Haa, how dare you mock my family name carelessly.....!”.

Gritting his teeth bitterly, Rozetti retorted,

“Well, you should start getting lost words for tournament day. Miss will beat your Melida to bloody pulp so just wait!”

As if doing a running demonstration, he ran creating a cloud of dust in his path. Left behind, Elise slowly followed the cloud of dust.

After the two of them left, Melda wiped away the cold sweat on her face.

“Eh, sensei, I think it is okay for me to make enemies at such an early stage...”.

"That's fine. For a while……"

Kufa put her hand on Melida's shoulder and smiled kindly.

"Miss, please assume that there will be no tea time for next week."

“Kenapayyyyyy!?”

Melida's cries filled the tunnel once again.

...

Now after school, right outside the botanical garden. Melida who can't lose anymore is undergoing her third lesson with Kufa.

To make the most of the rest of the week before the tournament, today's lesson will be a practical one.

“For that to happen, we must first make Miss understand which concepts are low, neutral, and chaos.” conditions

"lowly? Neutral?"

Kufa wore a t-shirt while Melida was training the clothes prepared by the servants, clutching a wooden sword similar to the one in the morning.

“I guess you haven't been taught about this during your first year. The scale known as alignment determines which condition you are in.

Turning to the blackboard, he wrote while speaking.

Situations where you are barely mobilized are known as low. The position where you are covered in a coat where known as neutral – is also often called 'normal situation'. And finally, the situation where you put your mana into the scale of the attack, gathering all your mana forward is called chaos.

Pausing for a moment, he underlined the words Neutral.

“The offensive power and defensive power displayed yesterday were in a neutral state. As explained earlier, mana strengthens one's physical abilities. In low conditions, they will be in the ordinary state that you and I are in at the moment. ”

Thinking of the previous situation, Kufa puffed out her mouth, then exhaled.

"Until recently, my lady was struggling in a low situation that explained the horrible performance up until now."

“Any....”.

Although Melida was currently crying, there was no reason for her to be depressed. If they decided to take the school entrance test again and compare his strength, he was now several leagues ahead of his previous self.

Kufa stopped writing with chalk, flipped his wooden sword, and slammed it into the ground.

“Then, let's sparring. My girl. Please align yourself with the neutral situation.

“O, okay! Ms……! Melida closed her eyes and clenched her fists, concentrating. Then a yellowish golden light enveloped his body.

"I did it!"

“It's too slow! It took three seconds to prepare! ”

“Whataaa!?”

In contrast to Melida who was in shock, Kufa looked back with a cold face.

"Te, but I'm trying really hard!"

“If someone with bad intentions comes attacking you, do you think he will wait for three seconds? Do you think 'I tried my best so please wait' would be a justifiable reason for him to wait?

"Then……!"

Her face flushed with embarrassment, Melida looked like she was about to cry again.

But Kufa answered mercilessly.

“Nona, you should know this better than anyone, right? Against which user, the person lacking mana would not be able to lift a single finger! I'm not going to ask you to reduce your time to reach neutral conditions so suddenly. This too, is something that should be practiced every day. Miss, from now on, you will reduce your preparation time by 0.1 second each month. If so, in three years-“

He stopped halfway, enough time to blink once. Then suddenly, a golden flame engulfed him.

“You can enter the state of battle in 0.01 second.”

“Wah, amazing....”.

Melida is fascinated by Kufa who has released her mana coat around her naturally.

Returning to low condition, Kufa pulled out a pocket watch.

“Then, Madam. I'll measure the exact time again so please let go of your mana once again. ”

“O, okay.”

Melida kept her mana once more and made her body stiff.

Fire exploded around his body.

"I did it!"

“It's slower than before! Once again!"

"How can!? "We'll do this until you get a new high score."

“Ahhhh.....!”.

Melida squeezed the end of her training clothes. "You're the devil, sensei."

“So you called me a demon? It's so rough."

After all, in the days of Kufa, the second mistake will be punished with beatings and this will continue until you succeed. Compared to that, this was clearly heaven.

“......Hey, did you hear that? He called her the devil! ”

“So he really is a bad teacher....”.

The servants came to spy on the training and gossip. As explained earlier, he is not evil.

After repeating twice more, time finally returned to the original. To the exhausted Melida who was practically sleeping on her shoulder, Kufa announced with chalk in hand.

“Please continue working on neutral state for a while. I will discuss this matter first. ”

He's doodling on the board.

“Our status is samurai rank. While you may have already learned this, allow me to explain it once more. ”

He kept writing neat words on the board. It was somewhat similar to what was written in the textbook, but Melida took it seriously.

“Kelas killer ..... for consumption, where .....”

“Yes, I plan to teach you how to use samurai class techniques step by step. The thing I want you to focus on today is this. Compatibility ratio. ”

On the blackboard, Kufa wrote the following six (Bribbles. Defense force. Mobility. Special Movement Set. Attack Support. Defense Support), writing (B.C.A.C.C.) next to each.

“This shows how a class will improve their abilities once they mobilize their mana. In the case of the samurai, mobility had been raised to a very high standard while defense was low. Practice without keeping the ratio in place, so we will practice according to the ratio, 2 . 1 . 3 . 1 . 1.”

"So that's it."

Melida commented honestly. Kufa took a deep breath, slamming his wooden sword onto the floor once more.

“We will practice using this menu every day, in addition to a new special menu every day.”

“Menu special?”

“I originally thought to make you learn even one attack skill but..as a junior, other than striking, the assault skill will not be of much use. Therefore, we must think of “ways to win” as soon as possible.

Raising the sword from the floor, Kufa flipped it in her hand and mounted the horses.

“Well, your body has to be filled with so much excitement that you can't stand it, right? It's time for your long-awaited debate. ”

Melida's face turned into as if she had just recalled a nightmare in the morning.
