"I am gonna rip that smug apart from her! Leave me!!"
Nearly shouted at the end of her intentions was the red-haired warrior Venessa Charles who, after losing to Luna, was brought to the infirmary since she lost consciousness from Luna's blow.
The training session was called off after the first friendly spar(?) as the situation went out of hand already during the commencement.
Rachael told the chosen ones that he would be present on the school grounds until the incoming danger didn't vanquish, so the chosen ones were free to come and spar with Rachael anytime, and the chosen ones also wanted to get used to their newfound arsenal.
Currently, in the infirmary, apart from Venessa, her other party members were also present inside the cabin, which was granted for Venessa's treatment, considering her position in the school.
Vanessa, as soon after regaining her consciousness, jolted to dart at that very moment as she dearly desired to return what she received from the saint.
It was the second time she had been humiliated like this, yet she wasn't able to do anything!
"Let me go!"
She flailed her limbs as she tried to break the binding chains which Lilia had cast even before Venessa woke up since the three other members of the party were aware of her personality.
Last time she kept her mouth shut because Kyouki would have been affected if she was to hurt Austin. But this time?
"Venessa-san. Please calm down and listen to me."
Seeing her struggling both physically as well as mentally, Kyouki sat beside the agitated woman before he placed his hand on her restrained hand.
Vanessa immediately halted her struggle as she felt the warm sensation upon herself before she directed her eyes toward the gentle gaze Kyouki was emitting.
*BA*DUMB*
Lilia and Sicily sighed in relief as they saw Venessa finally calming down, thanks to their leader taking the lead.
"I know you must have been feeling frustrated. I know you want to get back at Luna, but is it really worth it? Luna has changed; she has forgotten all our relations but are you also the same? Do you not consider Luna as your friend anymore?"
Throughout his persuasion, Venessa kept her mouth closed as her clenched fist loosened slowly upon hearing the conclusion of Kyouki's reasoning.
Her heart fluttered violently as she somehow understood why Kyouki was going out of his way to make her understand this, which made her enthralled.
'How can a person be so caring for someone like me.'
On the other hand, Sicily had a complicated emotion rummaging inside her heart, which she didn't let show on her face.
There was a side of her that knew Kyouki was inwardly trying to stop Venessa for her own safety.
It seemed apart from the victim herself, the rest of the three in the party were now aware of Luna's actual strength, which they weren't aware of until now.
'How would she react if she gets to know the truth...'
Sicily shivered slightly as the thought of letting Venessa face the silver saint again, made the olive-haired supporter mage conclude only one result.
And that was the end of Venessa.
"Kyouki-Kun. What about the practice with your new artifacts and weapons? Will you train with Sir Rachael?"
Lilia asked the thing which concerned not only her but the entire Eden's academy as the hero's participation in the vanguard would be very crucial. And to ensure the hero's safety at his best, practice spar was necessary so he could become used to his newfound armaments.
Kyouki thought for a second before he replied with a long sigh.
"Even if I want to practice with Sir Rachael, I highly doubt he would be able to help. I need someone above my level to feel the challenge and grow exponentially. And, I don't think there is someone like this on the school grounds."
Vanessa, despite wanting to help Kyouki, remained silent since she knew the difference between their power level.
For instance, Lilia wanted to bring Austin's name forward, but in the end, she kept her mouth closed since it felt wrong to bring her ex-fiancè's name as it would sound like she was praising him.
It was Sicily who came up with an idea as she spoke in a slightly doubtful tone.
"If it's about swords...then I think I can ask for help. But don't take my word since I don't know whether I would be able to pursue that man."
Kyouki made a complicated face as, without a word, he nodded.

At the same time, when the meeting of the hero's party was undergoing in the infirmary, a specific duo was sharing their loving time in a cozy, dimly lit room.
"You went too far, Luna."
Austin applied ointment at the place where Luna's face was hurt as he spoke with a helpless sigh. He wasn't frustrated with her; instead felt her actions cute?
Of course, he won't tell her, or she might blast Venessa again without telling the person what happened so suddenly.
"Are you worried for her?"
With her eyes staring continuously at Austin's expression, which she seems found tough to discern, Luna asked in a cold tone.
"Of course not. I just think your anger is worthless to someone like her."
Luna, upon hearing his remark, narrowed her eyes before she asked in a colder tone.
"Who is angry with whom? And why would I be mad at that muscle head?"
Luna's remark displayed that she was just participating in the spar for training and such, even though she didn't acquire any weapon. But Austin was very well aware of the meek saint's hidden side.
"You aren't mad at Vanessa?"
Upon being targeted so directly, Luna rounded her eyes before she gazed away from her not-so-fair lover.
"Luna...?"
Austin, with an amused smile, pursued the escaping Luna as he narrowed his eyes in pure glee.
Luna, after being gazed at for so long (three seconds), finally lost her temper as she turned her face toward Austin before she opened the box of her complaints.
"How can I not be angry?! That woman got engaged with you in my absence, and even responded to you shyly when you greeted her. I mean, I ain't a blind ass who can't see her wavering bitchy emotions! And not to talk about that ex-fiancé of yours who just doesn't know how to control her tits at all. Did you see her troubled expression when I pressed myself on you? Hah! She even glared at me! How dare she! I mean, I know she was connected to you before, but now you are her ex! Freakin ex! Can't she just ride one boat for once? First, that midget Lilia got engaged with you, and now this muscle brain. Now I fear about that Sicily girl. Everyone is getting engaged with you, and here I haven't even gone on a date with the person I love! Haha...isn't it hilarious? I might end every woman from this world like this!"
Concluding with her crowd of words, Luna started panting slightly with her face dyed in red due to the momentum she spoke with.
Austin heard every word of her while caressing her hand to calm her, but nothing affected Luna because of the frustration she had accumulated since Aurora.
After some seconds, Luna realized that she had spoken more than necessary as she slowly turned her head toward Austin with fear of being hated rising dramatically inside her mind.
"Luna..."
Hearing his slightly cold tone, Luna's heart trembled as she felt something irreversible had taken place because of her whining and heavy emotions.
But little did she imagine that Austin's following word would be centered at a particular part of her complaint.
"Let's go on a date."
"..."
