(POV Alexander- In the present )

Everything seemed to be going smoothly in this world. It had been 3 months since I arrived here, and now the missions of this world that the system gave me were almost completed. The mission to defeat the Ragnarok members only had 3 more guys left, and then I wouldn't have to worry about this.

It's not that I'm so worried about beating those guys, I think that won't be very difficult. My concern is because the time I have to be in this world is almost over too! I only have about a month more at the most… I have to return to Ruananpur to carry out my deal with Eda after all. If it weren't for this, then time wouldn't bother me.

On the other side, the Masters's affection mission is also almost completed. Apa's affection a few weeks ago had managed to exceed 100! Undoubtedly that was something great, but I just hope that this is because I had spent time together with him and not that the increase in his affection was related to the number of blows I had received from him during these months... seeing how happy he was when he hit me, that idea I had about this was not so out of place!

Well, now only Akisame remains… unfortunately, this guy's affection had stagnated at [80]! Even though it was growing slowly, at least it was growing! Now, from a few weeks, there had been no progress no matter what I did!!

… As I had thought, this was the guy I would have the most trouble with on this matter. It just seems like our personalities collide a bit...

Well, I wasn't that worried about this. If for anything I cannot get Akisame's affection to rise during this month that remains, I can do it after when I return to this world. I think I still have things to learn from these Masters, so after I sort things out in Ruananpur and visit the girls in Gaia to see their situation, it would be best to come back here for a while.

…I have to make sure that at least Shigure follows me to Gaia! Even though our relationship has advanced a lot, there are still many things that bind her to this place and therefore I'm not sure she wants to follow me for now. Also, maybe it's not a bad idea to take some other Masters to Gaia!!

After all, these guys are people with a level 2 soul, and they would certainly be of great help to me there! Especially if I go to a level 2 Area!! Well, I can think about that once I do a little inspection of things on Gaia… it wouldn't be a bad idea to go to Cleirsa-san's sect when visiting the other girls too.

[Pan!]

"Ghue!"

"You have to stay focused, Alexander-kun! It is important that you maintain good posture no matter what conditions you are in! "

"... I can keep my balance on those damn sticks, but... if you constantly hit them and throw rocks at me too, it's almost impossible to do so, Master Ma!"

"... it doesn't have much meaning just jumping from one stick to another."

"You lie! You just make Hamtaro-kun hold a pot on his head while he's just shifting his feet on a damn stick!! "

"Well… he will have to do this too at some point. He has to start with the basics stuff first. "

"...then why did I skip that basic stuff and go straight to this?!"

"..."

Although this was training that only helped me improve, I could not help complaining to him either! Sometimes he didn't just hit the sticks but also broke them and therefore it was impossible to balance without a foothold!! It's not like I can fly, you know?

"Geh! Kuh!! Gyaaa!!! A-Akisame-Shishio, this is simply impossible to evade!! "

"Fufufu, it's not impossible, Kenichi-kun. Alexander-kun can endure quite a while on this machine before getting completely hit by "HIT THE REDHEAD-kun" "

"If Alexander-senpai ends up beaten in the end, then that means this is impossible to me!!"

"..."

Well… maybe now my situation was still better than Kenichi's. Now he was proving how hellish that damn Machine can be! I don't know how many times the idea of destroying that torture machine had crossed my mind until now… no, actually, I tried to do it!

The problem was that Apachai, who had become the engine of this Machine for Kenichi to use at this moment, was closely watching it. He was like Kerberos guarding the gates of hell!

"A-Are you okay, Alexander / Alexander-kun"

"Hehehe… you also have the blame for making yourself things more painful for you.

...Why the hell do you have to go face first ?! "

"..."

While I was cleaning the dirt from my face and I saw Kenichi suffer, Renka-chan and Miu-chan approach something worried since it must have seemed that I had a bad fall, and thanks to the suit that Akisame gave me the sound of this was also quite big.

...The only one who seemed to enjoy my situation was Sakaki. That guy had a big smile on his face as he watched my training while drinking something!! I understand what he's saying, but… damn it! I'd rather fall on my face first than with my a.s.s in front! It's scary to think about what could happen if I don't do it this way... f.u.c.k!!

At least this way I can see if there is some danger which can do me a lot of damage while falling...

Haaa~ Although I come out less beaten out of this training with Master Ma, the torture is more psychological! I really ended up mentally exhausted when I finished this training session with him!!

"Come on, try again"

"Haaa ~ ...fine"

"Gyaaa !! I will die, Akisame-shishio! This machine will kill me!! "

With no other option, I jump back to one of the canes to continue training. It wasn't a very pleasant workout, but I could actually see that it had good effects. Thanks to it, I had gained the skill of [Body Domain], [Quick Reflexes], and [Three-Dimensional Movement] recently. Furthermore, they also leveled something up by continuing with this training.

"You can do it, Alexander~. After all, I know you have a talent for Chinese Kenpo~"

" You must do your best, Alexander-kun! "

If I managed to use my [Seikuken] while moving through these sticks, then it could be said that I would be able to respond to an attack in almost any position. So, for the next few minutes, I try to do exactly that while the girls watched me train and cheered me on.

Renka-chan had constantly come to "help" me with my other training of the technique that Akisame gave me... at first, I had some doubts about this one because of the reactions it generated in people, but... now I think this is quite good! Before, I not much liked this one because I had to listen to old men and old women m.o.a.n as I applied a treatment, but... seeing how a young girl melts in your hands not is something bad at all!!

…It's a pity that Miu-chan ran away quickly from me when I asked her if she wanted me to give her a massage to release her acc.u.mulated tension and stress.

On the other hand, whenever Renka-chan sees me practice Chinese Kenpo, she seems quite happy. No, it wasn't just that. She had even still insisted a bit on me that I just concentrate on this discipline. I think she feels that in that way we would both have one more thing in common than with the other girls...

After responding to the girls' encouragement with a gesture, then I tried to stay as focused as possible, but… a sudden question from Sakaki makes the atmosphere of this place become a bit heavy…

"I'm a little curious about something, brat. While it seems that you get along very well with Renka-chan, Miu-chan… and even Shigure as well...

Which of them will you choose in the end to stay with?"

"Kyaa ~ Sakaki-san... Alexander and I are quite young~ It's too early to think of something like being together for the rest of our lives!"

"E-Eh? S-Sakaki-san ... t-talking about that kind of thing i-is a little... "

"..."

With Sakaki's question, the first to react was the girls mentioned by him. Renka-chan looks a bit embarrassed and happy as she twisted her body a bit, Miu-chan gets quite nervous, and Shigure, who was sitting maintaining her sword with Tochomaru on her head on the porch of the house, all direct their attention towards me who was on one of these stakes….

Oh! I hadn't seen that mouse of there in a few days... well, it was a pretty intelligent mouse and so he must have noticed the change in its friend or owner. Umu, it's good that he gave us some space on the Island, so I should reward him a bit...

When my interdimensional space comes back, I'll give it a [Limit-break] pill for monsters and some crystals… it was a bit sad that now Kenichi was over it. It must be a bit frustrating for this one that someone with the nickname of a Hamster became stronger than him now...

Well, I'll deal with that later. Now I probably had to give an answer to the girls who were staring at me...

That damn lover of easy money guy must have done this on purpose! He was quite happy about the reaction of the girls!! Well... I believe that now I understand why things have become more complicated for me recently.

It does not seem strange to me that he mentioned the first two girls, but… I thought that mine with Shigure would not be so obvious since they should think that she only treated me more kindly because she liked children.

…These guys must have seen some things that happened between me and Shigure!! Well... not that I care that much about that either. After all, it's not like I wanted to keep this a secret from them.

So, not only the girls involved in this were interested in the matter, but also the other Masters and the other people here looked at me with curiosity, doubts, or malice waiting for me to answer something.

The three girls were quite beautiful and physically, none of them lose with the other two… well, since Shigure has completely finished her growth stage, she probably had a slight advantage over the others.

It would certainly be quite difficult for any man to just choose one of them! No, probably with any of them a man could feel that heaven had totally blessed him!!

But… to be honest, if I had to choose a girl among the three of them… then my first choice would be Shigure. As I said, the other two girls are not bad at all, but simply my heart and likes had certain favoritism for this female ninja...

In fact, if it weren't for her, probably my motivation to go through the hellish training of these Masters would have been greatly reduced! Also, thanks to her, my stay in this dojo became more bearable!!

Not everything that happened in the last few weeks was bad after all! Having crossed the line and having some intimacy with her, do it again was much easier!! Also, the fact that the other Masters now allowed her to teach us a little about weapons, helped a lot in this!!

... apparently, those other guys believed it was time for us to at least get to know different types of weapons to be able to deal with them if we fight someone using them.

Thanks to this, my time with Shigure had increased! And of course, I was not going to miss this opportunity! So, usually, after I trained with Shigure, I immediately had an intimate time with her!! I was able to learn more about Shigure's body now...

I thought that she would be more reluctant about this, but she was not. As I had thought before, it is not that she was not interested in these things or disliked them, and it was rather that she had not discovered them yet!

Perhaps due to that reason, her actions and reactions at that time were a bit curious. Despite her age, she acted like a teenage girl who had found a boyfriend for the first time… so our times together were like those teenagers that try to hide from their parents to do some "bad things".

...It was curious to see her a little restless paying attention that the others who lived in this house were not going to discover us. In a sense, this made things a little more exciting. So instead of telling her that nothing would happen if the others found us out, I decided to play along with this a bit.

Rather than because Shigure was too innocent, I think this was because she had focused so much on improving her abilities than other things in her time in the school. Besides, during her childhood she had practically lived as a little hermit together with her father... without a doubt, there were many factors that led to this being so.

Her reactions were probably simply because she doesn't experience this stage in her youth… and I think it was the same for Apa. Or maybe he doesn't really care much about those things... that guy seems a little too pure. As someone who had reached a very advanced level of thinking!

It was a bit surprising when Apa seemed to meditate and some small animals like birds keep on his shoulders or head as if he was a tree...

Although that seemed cool, I was grateful that this Goddess had more deadly features than Apa's mentality… it would have been very unfortunate if Shigure's interest in men was cero!

The only unfortunate thing about this was that it was almost impossible to move things with her to more intimate matters… with the other people hanging around the house, those moments with her couldn't be too long!

Well, it was not bad to let her experience this stage that she could not have in her youth, I could not be so cruel and deny this one to her again, right?

Also, it was a bit entertaining to see her face blush when suddenly someone else came into the place that us was and interrupted our intimate moments... since I knew I couldn't reach things at higher levels now, this time it didn't bother me as much as when we were interrupted on the Island. And that's why just I reveled in Shigure's reactions for now.

Acquiring a deeper relationship now with Shigure, and also the slight favoritism which could not deny I having of her over the others two, it was more than clear who I would choose if I had to make that decision now...
