Pushing Her Down (Continued)
But Haruhime brought him was pure enjoyment. She demonstrated many moves that he and Mayumi had never tried, and some he had never even seen before. Last night, Haruhime showed him all of them.
This is also why Haruhime is sleeping so soundly; after all, she is only a level 1 adventurer.
Her physical abilities were at most slightly better than those of an average person, but the fact that her delicate body could withstand William's all-night onslaught, which was a testament to Haruhime's extraordinary talent, was enough to demonstrate her exceptional abilities.
"Lord William!"
The girl spoke as if in a dream, and slowly opened her tightly closed eyes, meeting William's loving gaze!
Recalling what happened last night, the little girl buried her head deeply in William's arms.
"You weren't shy last night, but you're so shy now?"
William looked at the girl—no, the woman—acting so coyly, and burst out laughing.
"Lord William is so annoying!"
Although Haruhime was still shy inside, after William's teasing, she was now too embarrassed to just stay in William's arms.
She moved her body slightly, but the sensation that followed made her frown.
Leaving aside the discomfort in her lower body, her entire body ached as if it had been run over by a tank.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Seeing Haruhime frown, William stood up and sat down next to Haruhime, asking with concern.
"It's nothing, Lord William!"
Although she said that, her furrowed brows when she acted made it completely unconvincing.
William gently shook his head, placed his hands on Haruhime's shoulders, gently laid her back on the bed, and carefully pulled the blanket over her.
"Alright, you should get some rest first!"
"I'll go get you a glass of water!"
William gently stroked Haruhime's smooth, fair forehead, and then leaned down to lightly touch Haruhime's rosy lips.
William then left his warm, comfortable bed, put on the coat he had taken off the night before, and went outside to get busy.
As for Haruhime, she was already blushing with delight at William's thoughtful and considerate actions, feeling warm and fuzzy inside.
On the training ground, the sound of wooden guns piercing the air was incessant.
"William, you seem to be in a really good mood today!"
Tiona, looking on with suspicion, brandished her knight's greatsword, clashing blades with William's spear.
This morning, she was just passing by William's magic Workshop when William, who happened to be coming out, caught her and brought her here for morning training.
"Really? I didn't notice!"
With a flick of his wrist, the spear thrust at Tiona's chest again at a tricky angle.
"It's obvious! You seem to have used up all your excess energy; you look refreshed and energized."
Tiona held her greatsword horizontally in front of her chest, and with a powerful push off her feet, she leaped into the air.
He slightly adjusted his posture in mid-air, using the downward acceleration to thrust his greatsword straight at William's head.
Boom!
The ground sank directly into a deep pit, and dust and smoke flew everywhere.
"That's going too far! It's just normal exercise, why use so much force!"
William's helpless voice rang out from a distance, far from the cloud of smoke.
"And you're still criticizing me? You still used your disguise skills."
As the dust settled, Tiona, carrying her greatsword on her shoulder, spoke with a similarly dissatisfied tone.
"That's because you used your full strength first. If I hadn't used magic, I would have been stabbed to death!"
William walked to a corner of the training ground and placed the rifle he was holding on the gun rack.
"What, aren't you going to continue?"
That's what Tiona said, but she clearly had no intention of continuing.
As William put the weapon back, she casually tossed the greatsword back to where she had retrieved it.
"It's almost time to eat! Let's just skip it!"
He rubbed his rumbling stomach; after all, he had used up a lot of energy the night before and was already starving.
"That's true!"
Tiona nodded in agreement; eating was also a big deal for her.
"Lord William, has morning training been completed?"
The fox-eared girl appeared on the outskirts of the training ground, wearing a slightly loose maid outfit and holding a clean, damp towel in her hands.
"Yes! Thank you for your hard work, Haruhime!"
William walked over to Haruhime quite naturally, took the damp towel from Haruhime hand, and wiped his slightly dirty face.
"Yo! Haruhime!"
Good morning!
Tiona also walked over to the two of them and greeted Haruhime.
"Good morning, Lady Tiona! Here is your towel!"
Haruhime greeted her happily and then handed her another towel.
"I have one too!"
"Thank you so much, Haruhime!"
Tiona accepted the towel with delight and began wiping her neck.
"But could you please not call me 'sir' next time?"
