Chapter 27: 27. clumsy girl’s point of view.

(Change the trip, instead of being in 3 days on Thursday this week, it will be the other Thursday, so it doesn't seem too rushed.

and on Wednesday if he faced ren, with everything)

Akane's point of view:

My name is Akane Scarlett, the second daughter of the Scarletts of this generation.

the Scarlett family is known for its rarity in producing fire magic users, and thanks to having this talent, for some reason that reduces the birth rate, although my parents wanted many children to become powerful people, and thus gain power as politicians in their territory, too bad they could only have 2.

My elder sister is now a major general under direct orders from the emperor, so she is a rising star of the family, with a maximum fire magic talent, being an S-rank mage, and great strategic ability.

Despite all that, she was always affectionate with me, and never despises me for being a level 2, on the contrary, whenever I see her she encourages me to become stronger.

I wanted to be a magician like her, but I have no talent for it, when I had a talent measurement, they told me that thanks to being level 2, it would be better if I became a swordsman or something similar, but my parents decided that even if it is not magician, I would be a fighter, they forced me to fight with all kinds of weapons, but when they saw that I couldn't handle anything, they gave up and left me alone, since my sister is usually away she doesn't know, and I am forbidden to talk about it so that she doesn't spend her precious time to come for something small, or so they said.

One day while training, I picked up a dagger and started to move, and I felt like she was a part of me and so I knew she had a talent for it.

When I was happy to tell dad in his office, instead of congratulating me as I expected, he slapped me that knocked me to the ground, and yelled at me that the Scarletts wouldn't use cowardly weapons like that, at that time I was 12 years old and without many options I practiced the sword with the idea that I could be a great combatant.

One day when I was walking around the house I heard a talk in the office, and that day although I knew I shouldn't, I had a strange curiosity to hear what they were talking about.

Putting my ear to the door, I heard how the head of the Squirre house talked with his friend about uniting 2 houses through an in-law marriage, and that I would be the one to marry, at first I told myself that it is normal, since Arranged marriages are a must as a noble, but after hearing all the talk, I got scared and went to my room.

It turns out that my fiancé is someone with good future talent, a user of 3 elements and they wanted my family to join them to get an heir with all 4 elements.

But the problem is that after the marriage they planned to use me as a human cow, to produce talents, and live like that in the end.

I wanted to tell my sister, but my mother was always there when she called, so I subtly gave her the news saying that I would be engaged my sister got angry, and I complained to my parents why, but they were able to refute and in the end, it was decided in a duel against him, if he won the engagement would be broken, but if not, I will not have a voice for the second time.

While riding in the limo, I couldn't help but mourn.

Arriving at the mansion, which originally belongs to my sister, but I am here because she told me that she could be there, I planned to go directly to my room since not even the servants treat me well here, but today a maid called me saying that my father is in the capital and he wanted me in his office.

'It won't be because of today, right?

Arriving at the office, I had to wait 40 minutes while my father continued to sign documents from our territory.

Although we were noble and with political power, we still do not have a large territory and it is because of our grandfather and his past debts, he left us with almost nothing back then, and our father had to make an effort not to take that small piece of land from us, recently thanks to my sister's achievements, we're getting more ground, but it seems that despite being one of the 6 great nobles now, he still wants more.

- Why did you get into trouble?

"The truth father...

- You know they could expel you, right?

"Yes.

- And you know that if rumors get out and you lose your place in the academy, you will embarrass us, right?

"Yes.

-so you want to stain the name of your sister who works hard to get what we have today by daring to do that?

"...

- I'm asking you.

"Not father.

- Well, if it happens again, I'll take away the funds your sister sends you.

"I understand, father.

- and don't get close to that damn brat without attribute, you've done enough to cause problems this week, I don't want rumors later that can make the Squirre family find out and cancel the commitment that cost me so much to form.

- you can withdraw.

I just nodded and got out of there, already in my room I could only sigh in silence.

'But what the hell is that boy?

someone who can go against the top 10 with only a wooden sword is not normal, and if he could?

no, better not to put my hopes in a boy like that, I could feel his lust on me for a moment when I entered the cube, although it was momentary that told me everything, I should not associate with someone like that, or so I thought until I got a message from my recent friend Kumiko.

-You better come tomorrow at the same time, otherwise, my teacher will make me look for you shouting your name, the worst thing is that she wants me to do it alone, you better go, I don't want to lose my voice.

'hah, what an evil teacher, making your assistant scream.

'wait for a second, how does she have an assistant if she comes from an ordinary family?, well, I can always ask Kumiko tomorrow.

The next day was similar, at the end of classes I went straight to the training ground avoiding people, and when I arrived first I went to the dressing rooms.

taking the tape off, I felt all the pressure go off of me.

' It's annoying to go out and people only see this.

I thought as I held it.

For a while it bothered me and I asked my sister for advice and she said that if I use tape to cover them, now they consider me flat, pity looks hurt, but it's better than lustful looks.

Putting on my gym clothes where it's impossible to use a treadmill, I walked into the bucket and saw them.

Kumiko was in a corner with a sword, and today's theme looks like a forest field, but Ren was in the middle of the field with his back to a rock sleeping.

' It's getting weirder every time.

And so, another day with that strange pressure that makes me want to fall over, I have to fight him again, even though I complained to him before.

I obey him, when I heard from Kumiko in class about why she does this, I couldn't help but feel sorry, of course, she can lie, but she said that her expression didn't indicate a lie, despite her bored and cold look, there was a pain in those eyes They reminded me of my sister when she lost her entire unit once, that's why I fight, not trying to beat someone in a duel.

...

When Wednesday came, I felt ready, in this week, I was fighting non-stop for hours.

Later, in my room, I stretched as hard as I could, since Ren told me that the style he believes should be linked to flexibility, but that it would be difficult.

when I ask why I just look at my bust, it's too rude, despite the size, it never prevented me from moving freely.

I still think it's illogical that I can create a new fighting style.

They created styles that take years of dedication and perseverance, it is not as easy as throwing a cut and giving it a name, you have to practice various movements, guide them and follow a rhythm.

a big sword user would normally use a style dedicated to brute force, and area damage, a dagger user would be more geared towards speed and lethality, it can't be the other way around since if the dagger user puts a lot of force the blow, the weapon will break, the same for the giant sword, achieving precision with a giant sword will be almost impossible.

And in my case, I want something only at speed.

I can buy a manual, but they are usually hard to get, and also if my family finds out that I use daggers, I will be completely disinherited.

A manual is created through users, people get a blank manual, they go to a special store where they will put the manual in a machine connected to some kind of camera, and the person will have to do the movements they want to record, one you see doing it is given a name, and that's it.

It sounds easy, but it is not, if you make a mistake or lose concentration for a second, the machine will not be able to record well and you will have to start over, once done, you will be able to sell the manual to someone or take it out en masse, which is not usually the case. do and is considered illegal.

Once the person has the manual, just inject mana into the notebook and you will learn the moves, and mastery will begin.

minimum, medium, maximum level, those are the 3 levels when learning a manual and it is more difficult the more rank you have, the maximum is up to an SSS rank manual, but apparently, those manuals disappeared in history, currently, there is even a rank SS and apparently the 4 monarchs possess it.

It was decided that the duel will be next Thursday in private, so there will be no problem if my father finds out, Ren and Kumiko already planned and talked with Bernard.

When I asked to know how they could convince him since he is usually arrogant and proud, they just told me "don't ask if you want to stay healthy.

I took a position, this time holding a pair of sharp daggers, although in case of injuries, inside the bucket, it will be like sand, I will be ejected towards the corner in that case, but I don't want to swing them, just that time I threw a pencil at Bernard, because I thought it would kill someone in front of me, but I didn't think it would hit him right in the hundred.

Ren is now in front of me, not with the usual boring look, he had a calm look, waiting for him to attack, and with his strange defense posture, I ran towards him.

-------------------------

Akane swung the daggers at him in a crossover, but ren was able to launch a thrust just as the 2 daggers were lined up, ren reached that point and broke the attack.

Akane stepped back and moved again, this time she ran around the forest-like area chosen today, yesterday there was a desert-type arena where it was harder to move, and 2 days ago she chose a rainy courtyard when they started fighting.

but today, luckily for Akane, he used a forest, where there were artificial trees. Still, although they were artificial, they seemed as real as the originals, a sign of the great advances of humanity.

I take advantage of the trees to try to avoid her gaze, but strangely Ren was still there, she kept running despite that, and she began to make the most silent steps of hers.

These days I don't just dedicate myself to stretching, for some reason, ren began to give me skill manuals, they are created in a similar way to the arts, but at the same time it is said that they are usually more difficult to create, although I don't know where I get them, he only asked me to learn them, seeing them all I was surprised at first, they had names that indicated only one thing.

[the steps of the blinder]

[ night vision]

[low presence]

among others, all indicating that they are for a murderer.

When I told her that my family is one of wizards and knights and they don't use such cowardly skills.

He looked at me like he was looking at an idiot and said.

- even the strongest and most honorable knight is a baby without being able to defend himself when sleeping, never underestimate someone just for not being "honorable" as you say, so don't come to me with nonsense and learn everything, you never know when it could be useful to you.

I could only sigh, and learn everything, and although I don't like to admit it, I like these skills, as they are mana-only skills, they can work just by activating mana, without the need of my fire attribute.

I use [The Reaper's Footsteps], a skill that serves to facilitate movement on any ground or obstacle.

Those books were all A rank.

Although I don't know how he was able to achieve such abilities, I asked him and he lied to me saying that he created it.

'Do you think I'm an idiot?

despite my bitterness, I kept running and used the other ability.

[low presence] used to be able to not make noise with my steps, looking for an Angle I jump straight towards ren, but he stops my dagger and cuts me, even if I manage to avoid it if I graze my shoulder.

'so by that, he meant to go all out huh.

that attack was aimed at my neck, I just dodged it.

"You cut me like that!?

- I told you I would go with everything.

"But you aimed for my neck.

- in a fight always aim for the weak point, you have to be precise and lethal if you were to use the daggers.

"It's not like I want to use daggers.

- It's because you're useless for other weapons.

"Lies! I could be a good swordsman if I train more.

- when you tried it you ended up throwing your sword because of the weight.

"Ugh, I just need strength training.

Do you think giving broccoli to a lion will make it a vegetarian?

"You continue with your weird metaphors.

- but those metaphors don't lie.

"Anyway, I'll make sure I win today, I won't end up on the ground this time.

- That's what you told me since the third day.

"Today is different.

- Hoh and why is that?

" I'm already getting my style shaped, on my status screen it shows as [ 66% for dual daggers style creation].

- Interesting, and have you thought of a name?

"I could try a cute name like [the cat move].

- give a cute name to the style of use of daggers, typical of a maniac.

"Please don't make fun of me! I'm still new to this. (╥﹏╥)

-hahaha, of course, you say that after trying to distract me with your voice sounding from one side and pointing from another, at least you know how to use the skills well.

"He makes me train to the bone every day and if I lose I train more.

- so that you overcome your fears.

" I'm not afraid anymore.

- really?

" really.

- then why is there a tremor in your eyes when you point to a vital point of mine?

"Hah, how do you not miss anything?

- It's my job, if I have to do it, I do it well so that later my sleep won't be interrupted.

"How are you so strong if you only talk about sleeping, even when I keep sneaking away you keep blocking.

-if your opponent has a perfect defense, he looks for another way to attack, use something to distract him, whatever.

"Oh, so...

Akane threw one of his daggers from behind a tree, but this time it was imbued with fire magic, colliding with Ren's sword, it made an explosion.

Ren recoiled from the approaching fire, but at her back, another dagger was thrown in a similar, pincer attack.

Ren looked around as if searching for someone.

Akane was on top of a tree waiting to launch herself with an extra dagger that she had kept in her chest, how I keep it, don't ask me, they are women's secrets.

When the second explosion sounded, she launched herself, but when she arrived there was no one until she felt a sharp edge on her neck, she could only raise both hands.

- um, despite being a good attack, you should have come at the same time as the second dagger, so you would have a chance.

she "she would be caught in the flames.

- It's not the flames, it's your flames.

"I still don't know how to control them after putting mana into the daggers.

- It's a matter of control.

"So you say, but you don't even have an attribute.

- I told you I had it.

"The lightning users are just a legend.

- but I have it.

"Whatever you say, boss.

- by the way.

"um?

How did your parents not find out?

" Simple, I just say that I am sick and the maids walk away from me that day to not attend to me.

- must be hard.

" you get used to it.

- maybe.

"Hey sensei.

- Don't tell me sensei.

"If you are training me, what do you want me to call you then?

- ren.

"As you say sensei.

- ha, when they get into confidence they become very loose, until a few days ago, you still couldn't look me in the eye, now you joke with me every time.

"I must say that it is Kumiko's influence, by the way, she has already chosen her weapon?

-Yeah, she looks like she wants to start with a shield, anyway, we should go.

"Can't we train anymore?

- tomorrow is your duel, if I have you training late, you will not be in optimal conditions.

"I understand, see you tomorrow sensei.

- see you tomorrow, let's go Kumiko.

- 5 more minutes.

-I'm not crazy, yesterday you stayed up late and I only had to serve all those people in the restaurant yesterday, the boss almost hung up on me.

- but you could do it.

-but the one who wanted to improve her kitchen is you, so move.

-okay! she was about to withstand 50 kilos of pressure.

- Later you can train, for now, we have work.

"See you later sensei, I'll see you tonight, please serve me a nice dinner.

- as long as you leave this sensei a tip.

"If I don't like it, I won't give you a dime.

- That is an exploitation of the worker, you are the only one who arrives and eats 5 of the most expensive dishes every day and since you are from the Scarlett house, they make me put effort into your dishes.

"Good luck with that sensei.

while they left, it was my turn to return the whole cube to normal, and if I turned everything off, I don't mind doing it, since I can scan better on the cameras as sensei can deflect my attacks perfectly and avoid surprise attacks.

'so I use lightning to enhance movement huh.

I already knew that sensei has the ray, he shows it from time to time here, although the rooms are private, I always delete all the recordings as a precaution and then leave.

On my way home, I thought about Don Julio's restaurant.

An older man with his daughter, who has his restaurant and they both serve alone, Don Julio in the kitchen, and his daughter Catalina serve customers.

Kumiko said that on the Monday that she started as ren's assistant, they were looking at restaurants to work.

When Kumiko told her that they should go to a gourmet place, Ren just laughed and told her that she would wait to see her fail, she was rejected as they thought they were just kids playing.

Ren teased her for a while, and they kept looking, when they saw don Julio's restaurant, he saw a simple place with 8 tables, a family-type restaurant, but Ren said that it reminded him of his home, so he entered the place and convinced don Julio, to work there so that Kumiko learns there.

Don Julio agreed since he found some children's games interesting, but seeing Ren's cooking skills, Kumiko says that his jaw dropped for a few seconds.

From that moment the changes began, now the restaurant is always full, and reservations are necessary.

And they haven't even been there for 2 weeks, when I went on Friday to try that food, I was amazed, I felt in paradise, I think that from there I felt that Ren is not a frivolous person.

and I got the doubt

How can he be just a pure bacon-lover when he can make dishes that not even gourmet restaurants could make.

My opinion of him is simple, he is someone simple and on the go.

There is no problem with anything, even when a client came claiming that he stole dishes from his restaurant and went to the press, I simply challenged him, created a new one on the spot, and shut his mouth.

Yesterday an important nobleman arrived, and the ingredients that were supposed to arrive, they told him that the delivery truck had an accident, so he went to the nearest market, he returned with boar meat, condiments among other simple things, and when the nobleman ate Said dish, he marveled, and said that I beg Ren to be the family cook, but every invitation up to that point was always, "I'm a student, I have to finish the academy and then maybe I'll consider the offer.

Despite releasing direct words being someone common towards that noble, the noble did not get angry, he just smiled and accepted the answer that he would expect, just like other nobles.

At school it is similar, I decided to observe him find out how he is, he arrives with Kumiko, sleeps in his room and does the work assigned by the teacher, and goes back to sleep, or so one of his classmates told him me.

but despite appearing to sleep, he always answers questions well.

in the cafeteria always, he talks to the cooks and gives them advice that sounds weird, but when he applied one, it was very helpful.

When he sits down, although he feels alone since Kumiko goes with his former teacher, a white-haired girl approaches him, talks with him for a while, and returns to his friends somehow with a happy face and at the same time defeated.

he helps his companions if he is not sleeping, which is usually a golden opportunity.

He avoids the stalkers in his classroom, or rather they seem to avoid him, according to the rumors there seems to be a white-haired second-year student these days who talk to them privately.

Despite all that, I realized something about his attitude towards others, it's simple, he smiles at those who smile at him and jokes at those who joke at him, but no more than that, to whom he is usually more direct and even rude is Kumiko and me

I wonder what he will serve me today, although his rate of tips is high, he does not keep even a coin, he gives everything to don Julio and tells him that if he leaves, use the tricks that he taught him and his daughter and improve your restaurant.

After a wonderful dinner, I went home and slept looking forward to tomorrow.

When today's classes were over, Ren came to my class and I went with him straight to the arena.

I went in uniform and stood face to face with my opponent and the first thing he said to me when he saw me was.

- So my fiancee wants to play with swords huh?

Bernard Squirre, my fiancé.
