After Asai's realization that although being fully aware that Robin was an orphan, and that he literally ditched her for a year after picking her up. That she was also human, and required tender loving care. He deigned himself to spend most of his free time with her.
Ensuring they shared as many meals together as possible. The young girl honestly didn't really have many friends of her own. Everyone she associated herself with was older and was filled with responsibilities and duties to perform.
Thinking about it, he realized just how fast Robin was thrown into a dog-eat-dog world. Having not experiencing any pleasant childhood memories to cherish. The moment the two had met, and after. All Robin cared for and only had time for was improving her combat ability. She completely ignored her emotional and mental growth. Concerning academics, she at least had Annie and Mary to teach her common knowledge because of how much time she spent with him.
Count Asai Trichia had an obligation to uphold a positive image in society, and if he deigned to bring Robin around with him everywhere. She was required to at least act within minimum decorum.
...
One pleasant surprise Robin presented to him one night, was that her skill had evolved.
[All in One] Now no longer shot 10 projectiles, but 13. Now, Asai knew for sure she didn't have a sex system like he did. And when he asked, she simply told him that she had trained and practiced the skill until she understood it more.
With this revelation, Asai immediately looked for an appropriate swordsman to mentor him. When he contacted Rosemi, to see if she had any recommendations. She went ahead and sent Christine over.
After spending a month with the girl, and ending up with bruises mainly on his glutes, abdominals and pectoral muscles. He finally saw the fruits of his hard labour.
[Sword and Dagger Mastery]
50->70% boost in Dagger and One Handed Sword damage [Passive]
Indeed, he was correct. 50% was the hard cap that the system could forcefully bestow via muscle memory. What he now lacked was true understanding and skill. The why and how to swordsmanship. It was quite the weird skill though. He had spent the month training with a wooden longsword, but the skill itself increased the power of his karambit strikes. Increasing their penetration.
Robin also joined in on the lessons. However, she wasn't able to unlock the same skill.
...
Robin was beginning to grow. As such, her old leather gears were no longer suitable, as it began to expose her midsection and ankles. As she was about to throw on any old random gear. Asai dragged her to the local armourer to get it personally fitted.
When her outfit was finally ready, the first person she decided to show was Asai. Barging into his office like she used to do back in the orphanage.
There she was, standing gloriously in her near gears.
On her feet were knee high brown leathered boots. At the peaks were a slightly darker shade of brown belts that acted like shoelaces. Her trousers were a tight fitting black. On her hips were two daggers attached to her hips, with another two attached to her lower back. Her tunic was white, and she wore another belt that crossed over her mid section that also shot up towards her collar bone, keeping the tunic tight, increasing her aero-dynamics. And to top it all off, matching leather gauntlets that didn't cover her fingers.
She had voiced heavily that whenever she ran with [Winged Foot] her clothing, would catch and balloon up. Getting in the way, dragging her down like a parachute. If Asai wasn't aware of her insane movement speed. He probably would've questioned the need for so many belts too.
All in all, it was a good purchase that Asai was willing to afford.
