Chapter 234 – Episode 234 – Date!
◈
After buying the things we wanted and leaving the store, Ninya took me to the Adventurer’s Guild.
“Are we going to the dungeon?”
“No. We’re not going to the dungeon, we’re going to the training grounds.”
“Oh, Rent! Ninya!”
As we approached the reception area to go to the training grounds, Lenny saw us.
“Hello, Lenny.”
“Yes, Rent. The Orc Champion Steak… thank you. It was very delicious.”
“I’m glad you enjoyed it, Lenny.”
“Oh my, Rent. Did you send it to Lenny again this time?”
“Yes, I sent it to Kelban and Lenny’s Guild Master. I owe them all a debt.”
“Hmm, I see.”
Ninya looked back and forth between me and Lenny with a sly smile.
“Are you two going to the dungeon today?”
“Hehe, no, Lenny. We’ll go to the dungeon tomorrow. Today, we have some business at the training grounds.”
“The training grounds, you say?”
“Yeah. Then, Rent and I will go to the training grounds. Lenny, work hard~.”
“Take care, Lenny.”
“Yes. Rent, Ninya.”
Ninya and I went to the training grounds.
The training grounds were nothing more than an empty yard.
Still, since it was a training ground, there were wooden weapons lined up in one corner.
I guess they were there for anyone who wanted to have a mock battle.
“Ninya, what are you going to do at the training grounds?”
When I asked, Ninya smiled at me and said,
“I want to spar with Rent.”
“Spar?”
“Yeah. I know Rent is incredibly strong, but… we’ve never sparred, even though we’ve fought before, right? I want to feel Rent’s strength with my own body.”
“So that’s why you want to spar?”
“Yeah. Rent can control his strength well, right?”
I was confident in my strength control.
If I couldn’t control my strength, I wouldn’t even be able to do a normal handjob.
Moreover, if I used the Zone I’ve been using recently, I could control not only my strength but also my speed more precisely.
“Well… yes.”
“Hehe, then let’s spar. I… already know how amazing Rent is as a man… this time, I want to experience how strong Rent is as an adventurer with my own body.”
“Didn’t you see enough while we were catching monsters together?”
“Watching you catch monsters is different from… me fighting you directly.”
“Is that so?”
“Yeah♡ Rent, get my spear out.”
“Okay.”
These days, I’m in charge of everyone’s weapons since I have an inventory.
Recently, because of the flood, we’ve had to fight constantly, so everyone manages their own weapons, and they still have their main weapons in their rooms, but the spare weapons are still in my inventory.
I took Ninya’s spare spear out of my inventory.
“Here you go.”
“Thank you. Then, let’s go to the center of the training grounds.”
Ninya and I stood in the center of the training grounds.
This was the place where Ninya and Noah usually sparred on their days off.
Even when I was waiting in the corner of the Adventurer’s Guild’s bar, I could hear Noah’s “Guek!” so they were sparring intensely.
It was more like Noah’s combat training by Ninya than a spar.
Recently, the frequency of that sound has decreased, which shows that Noah’s skills are improving.
“Who should attack first?”
“I won’t get hurt no matter how much you attack… so you go first, Ninya.”
“Okay, I understand. Ah, let’s do this so Rent can train too.”
Ninya winked at me and said,
“Rent is super tough and super strong, right? To be honest, there’s no chance I can beat Rent.”
“Yes.”
It would be a lie to say otherwise.
“So, Rent, instead of blocking my attacks, you’ll deflect or dodge them. It might not be necessary for Rent, but it wouldn’t hurt to learn these techniques. How about it?”
In other words, she wanted me to train in flexibility rather than strength.
It’s not a bad idea to acquire skills that are lacking or necessary for emergencies.
“Okay. Ah, then how about this? It would be boring if I just kept dodging or deflecting, so when I counterattack, I’ll attack at a speed that’s just barely fast enough for you to dodge.”
“Oh my, Rent, you can do such fine adjustments?”
“I’m going to try it out.”
I think I can do it if I use the Zone.
“Hehe, great. If you can do that, I’ll be more tense, which is good. Then…”
Whoosh!
Ninya grabbed her spear and took a stance… showing the serious adventurer’s side of her that I saw when we fought and when she defeated the numerous monsters during the flood.
“Let’s begin.”
Thwack!
And Ninya lunged at me, swinging her spear.
◈
Zzzzzap!
It’s been 30 minutes since I started sparring with Ninya.
Now, Ninya is using Lightning Enchant to the fullest while sparring with me.
At first, I was just dodging Ninya’s spear.
Even without using the Zone, I could dodge Ninya’s spear.
But as Ninya’s spear got faster and faster, I could barely keep up with my eyes, and although I could somehow dodge, I could feel that my dodging movements were becoming clumsy.
I realized that it was because I usually focused on attacking rather than dodging.
“Rent! If you just keep dodging, we can’t spar!”
Ninya, with a serious expression but also a smile, said, and I started using the Zone in earnest.
With the Zone, Ninya’s spear looked very slow.
In that state, I tried to dodge Ninya’s spear by a hair’s breadth.
It was like the paper-thin dodges that top-tier characters do in manga and movies.
After dodging for a while and getting a feel for it, I tried deflecting as well.
While dodging Ninya’s attack, I gently touched and pushed Ninya’s spear, redirecting the force.
When I succeeded in deflecting for the first time, Ninya’s eyes widened… and they changed into eyes burning with a strong competitive spirit.
The cool Ninya became even cooler and more attractive, and if I hadn’t used my suppression technique, I would have gotten an erection right away.
Ninya attacked me from various directions with her flashy spear movements and steps.
She not only thrust and swung her spear but also used her feet to attack.
Especially when she used her feet, the lines of her lower body that could be seen through Ninya’s fluttering skirt were really beautiful.
After dodging and deflecting for about 10 minutes, I thought it was time for me to counterattack.
I threw a punch, roughly slower than Ninya’s running kick speed.
“!?”
Ninya was momentarily flustered when I attacked, but it was only for a brief moment.
Ninya dodged the punch I threw with flashy movements.
After that, Ninya and I took turns attacking and dodging or deflecting each other’s attacks.
As time passed, Ninya’s eyes, burning with competitive spirit, became even hotter, and her movements became faster.
I also felt like I was in a battle of masters, and I got even more excited.
So, in the middle, I tried attacking by suddenly increasing the speed of my punch in the middle to surprise Ninya.
Zzzzzzzap!
Ninya barely dodged the faster attack by surrounding herself with electricity.
Of course, I was planning to stop right before hitting Ninya, but Ninya dodged by using a skill.
After that, Ninya attacked me at an even faster speed while surrounded by electricity and dodged my attacks.
Of course, I also increased my speed to match Ninya.
After sparring for another 20 minutes in that state.
“Haaaaaa! Lightning Lance!”
Ninya unleashed a lightning thrust that I could feel was full of her power.
The spear blade was wrapped in blue electricity and came towards me.
But for me, who was using the Zone, even that speed was slow enough to dodge, so I dodged Ninya’s thrust by a hair’s breadth and threw a punch at Ninya’s face.
Whoosh!
Since the thrust just now was an all-out attack, Ninya had no time to dodge.
I stopped my fist right before it hit her face.
The wind from my fist made Ninya’s hair flutter.
“The spar is my victory, Ninya.”
“…I guess so.”
Ninya and I slowly withdrew our fists and spears.
Ninya was quietly looking down.
“So… how was it, Ninya?”
I was able to gain a lot from the spar just now.
I became more proficient in using the Zone, and above all, I was able to see how fast and flashy my body moved in response to Ninya’s spear movements.
I was also surprised when I did a cartwheel in the air to dodge Ninya’s spear with a bit of style.
And the feeling of exchanging attacks with each other at a hair’s breadth, even though there was no damage, was like a battle of top-tier masters, and it made me feel very exhilarated.
Ninya trembled and then hugged her spear with both hands, lifted her head, and said,
“It was… the best…♡♡♡”
Ninya had a very excited look on her face.
It was similar to the face she made when she came.
“I never thought I could have a spar like this♡ Experiencing Rent’s strength so overwhelmingly is so wonderful♡♡♡”
“Is that so?”
“Yeah♡ No matter how much I attacked, you dodged everything, and your attacks were perfect, and you even deflected them, and then you attacked at a speed that was just barely fast enough for me to dodge, right? The constant tension was no joke.
And in the middle, you increased the speed even more, as if you were testing my limits beyond my full power♡ Ahh♡ It was so thrilling♡ Using Lightning Enchant, I barely dodged and attacked, and that hair’s breadth was really the best♡
Even when I gave it my all, Rent looked completely relaxed, which made me feel the overwhelming difference in our skills… it felt like I was being played with by a powerful male… haah…♡ haa♡”
Ninya twisted her body and made a very ecstatic expression.
It seemed like if I left her like this, hearts would appear in her eyes.
“I’m glad you’re happy, Ninya.”
“Yeah♡ Of course, I gave it my all during the flood too… but the feeling of pouring out all my strength and trying to surpass my limits like I did earlier is really rare♡ Thank you, Rent♡”
“Did it help improve your skills, Ninya?”
“Of course♡ But I don’t think once is enough… can we spar again next time?”
I’m all for it, of course.
I can see Ninya in her cool form again.
“I’d rather ask you again.”
“Kyaa! I’m so happy♡”
Ninya smiled brightly and hugged me.
Ninya’s body was now covered in sweat from the intense 30-minute spar.
The strong smell of Ninya’s sweat tickled my nose and made my blood flow even more.
Sex with a sweaty Ninya would be great too!
Two people moving intensely, covered in sweat.
Their pheromones, along with the smell of each other’s sweat, would tempt each other, and then they would enter a storm of sex that was even more intense than exercise!
『I don’t think we can do that here, it’s a public place.』
“That’s a shame, Solly.”
“Ninya, let’s wash up… and eat.”
“Okay, let’s do that♡”
It was almost lunchtime.
Ninya and I turned to go to the showers near the Adventurer’s Guild’s training grounds.
And then, I was finally able to notice, as I had been focused only on Ninya.
Several adventurers were watching us around the training grounds.
“Amazing…”
“What was that spar just now?”
“So that’s what a high-rank adventurer’s fight looks like…”
“To dodge that flashy spear, he’s definitely the Dungeon Crasher. But how can he move so agilely with that body…”
“Ninya of the Lightning Spear is amazing too. I don’t think I could dodge that sharp, wind-cutting punch. If it came at me, I’d be so scared that I’d just get hit.”
“…I always thought she was just a woman who wore revealing clothes, but she’s definitely B-rank…”
“Is that spar level real? It’s a fight between the strongest.”
“…He wasn’t just specialized in destruction, Rent.”
Looking around, I saw Jason too.
“Ah, Jason.”
“Oh my, it’s Jason of Swiftness.”
I walked towards Jason with Ninya’s arm around mine.
“I saw the spar. It was excellent. I learned a lot.”
“Thank you.”
“Oh my, is Jason of Swiftness being humble? I think you’re still slow compared to your speed.”
“Speed isn’t everything. It’s also important how well you respond during a fight. In that respect, Ninya of the Lightning Spear, you and Rent were both very excellent. I’d like to spar with you someday.”
“Oh my, me too? It’s an honor that Jason of Swiftness would say that.”
“I’d like to spar with you too, Jason.”
A spar with an A-rank adventurer.
Honestly, I’m very excited.
“Then, let’s do it when we have time next time we meet. You must want to wash off the sweat now.”
Jason twisted his body to the side and made way, and the other adventurers around him also made way when they saw Jason.
“Thank you.”
“Hehe, thank you.”
And then, Ninya and I headed to the showers, which were separated for men and women.
