The day after Lira became s*xfriend.
Alvin and the other members of , Emily, also Iris gathered on the outskirts of after finishing breakfast.
Today was originally going to be a training session, and Iris had decided to join in on short notice.
”We’ll start the training with running!!”
”......Run....”
”Haha, Iris doesn’t like running, as usual, does she?”
The training session will be led by Emily.
But when Iris hears Emily’s words, Iris’s face blatantly changed into unpleasant, and Alvin laughed at it.
”Adventurers are based on physical strength! They may have different roles, but they all have one thing in common!”
”That’s right, Iris-chan. Let’s run~”
”......I know without you telling me”
Milis stretched her body muscles and her abundant breasts swayed. It is the same for Renka.
Iris is a little bigger than Emily, but not big enough to be able to shake. So, when Emily met Iris, she had a very nice smile on her face, as if she had just found a friend.
On the other hand, when Iris and Emily’s eyes locked on Milis’ breasts, they gently looked away.
Alvin and Shinji didn’t dare to say anything. Even the quintessential Alvin seemed to have read the air.
”Okay, let’s do this!”
”We’ll keep running with one bell for now”
”...... It’s longer than Dad’s menu....”
Emily followed behind with Alvin, Milis and Renka.
”You don’t have to overdo it”
”No, I’m going to do it properly...”
Iris who has a grimace on her face starts running behind Renka.
(I hated losing)
Shinji also started running at the back with a bitter smile on his face.
* * *
Sure enough, as expected.
After everyone had finished running, Iris fell to the ground and tried to catch her breath. Alvin and the others, who are used to running, seemed to have plenty of time to cool down as they walked slowly.
”Iris-chan, are you okay?”
”You didn’t have to match my speed, you know?”
”.... Senpai, Hah... Hah... Milis-chan too.... Also, Renka-san... Your physical strength...... has increased too much”
Iris remembered that when they were back home, there was not that much of a difference.
”Training is important, but I think it’s the experience of actual combat that counts”
”You’re right! Because we keep defeating strong monsters, we will grow stronger and stronger. There’s a big difference between upper and intermediate”
The difference of one year is much bigger than Iris thinks.
Shinji smiled at the sight of Iris, who was a bit puffed up.
He stands face to face with Iris, replacing Milis and Renka.
Like Iris, who holds her staff, Shinji also holds his staff. Then, he sends his thoughts to Freri and gets her to channel her magic to prepare for the match.
”I’m going to start......!”
Iris released a quantity of magic power that was enough to trigger a large-scale magic. Her amount of magic power that an individual can release is greater than any other person in the .
This is an enviable talent for Shinji, who has an average amount of magic to release.
Milis and Renka could not hide their surprise at the overwhelming amount of power released.
”Freri!”
Shinji shouts Freri’s name, and a magic circle unfolds next to Shinji. The magic power of Shinji and Freri resonated, and Freri’s portion was added to Shinji’s.
The same amount of magic power as Iris’s was released from Shinji, and the magic power clashed with each other.
”.... Guh, ......Nn!”
Iris is momentarily startled by the fact that her magic power has been opposed, and she pushes her way through the center of the field with force.
On the other hand, Shinji is quite calm. While thickening the magic power in the center to prevent Iris from breaking through the center, he bypassed the corner and lightly hit Iris’s head.
Because of this, Iris is half stunned and her magic power dissipates.
”Phew, I’m surprised. You release a great amount of magic.... It’s great talent. I’m sure you’ll become a top-notch witch if you train hard enough”
”......Yes, I’ll do my best.......”
Iris muttered in a voice that seemed to endure the frustration.
She didn’t expect to win against an upper-intermediate rank wizard, but she also didn’t expect to be so easily beaten. She was about to burst into tears and turned her head down, when Shinji called out to her.
”If it weren’t for the spirits, I just have an average amount of magic. That’s why I’m working so hard on my control. And you can get better at it with practice. So, if you ever get stuck in your training, I’m here to help”
Iris looked up at his kind words.
He was not boasting, looking down on her, or pitying her. Shinji had the same compassionate gaze as his mentor father, as if he wanted to see her grow.
Maybe that’s why.
Iris did not feel any repulsion.
”...... then, at that time, please help me.......”
Iris bowed her head honestly.
___________________________________
Iris also trained together.
She can’t help but notice the difference in physical strength because of her different experience.
She has a talent for magic that is unparalleled.
And she hates to lose.
Iris sensed Shinji’s high level of ability.
She opened her heart a little to Shinji’s outwardly good response.
