Chapter 499: Farewell
「Shall we do it now then?」
「Nn!」
Fran and Amanda face each other with a sharp gaze in front of the pedestal. It’s been just a few minutes since we met again for a long time, but they’re really going to do a mock battle right now huh...
Fran is ready to go and holds up the magic sword made of phantasm pyroxene that she had been using for a while. Amanda’s whip was a terrifying whip with the scary name of 『Demon’s Torment』. It was not the Divine Dragon’s Beard Magic Whip, which was broken in the martial arts tournament. It was her spare whip that was used in the finals.
Name: Demon’s Torment
ATK: 721
MP: 616
Durability: 720
Mana Conductivity: B-
Skill: Stretch, Pain-stacking, Paralysis
Name: Divine Dragon’s Beard Magic Whip
ATK: 1030
MP: 1800
Durability: 1000
Mana Conductivity: A
Skill: Stretch, Weight Manipulation
It’s weaker than the Divine Dragon’s Beard Magic Whip, but it’s still pretty strong. The pain-stacking skill is also a nasty ability.
「Let me give my newly acquired whip a test, okay?」
「Nn, bring it on!」
「Fufu, then, here I come!」
At that moment, the battle began. It may look so sudden for outsiders, but it’s not for the two of them. It’s started when they held their weapons.
「Shaa!」
「Muh!」
「Haaa!」
「Nnhh!」
While dodging Amanda’s whip, Fran slashed at her. After a few minutes of this kind of repeated attack and defense, Amanda smiled in admiration.
「You’ve changed your stance, huh?」
「Nn!」
「There wouldn’t be a problem at all」
「Really――?」
Amanda, just go back already!
***
At dinner time.
Fran and Urushi were biting into a huge piece of meat. Fufu, even Fran won’t eat curry every day. Well, she had curry for breakfast and lunch today though.
This meat is from a stray fang boar that had wandered it, and I made a whole roast of it
「Munch munch...This will be delicious like this」
「Grff grff! Woof!」
Fran holds the manga meat in her hands and chewing on it, while Urushi chews the meat off the bone, and he’s happy to bite into the thick bones. They seemed to be more pleased with the chewiness than the taste.
「Well then, I’d better go to sleep」
「Nn...」
「Woof...」
I’ve already explained to Fran and Urushi that Fenrir needs to sleep. But they are sad to be told again by him. Unlike Amanda, she doesn’t know if she’ll see him again.
「Don’t make a face like that. I’ll just sleep in Master. Both of you, good luck with your training」
「Thank you very much」
「Nn」
Fran and Urushi straightened their body and bowed their heads. It’s a completely different attitude than the one they have towards Amanda, but I guess they feel she’s like their good friend or sister, while he’s their favorite teacher even if he only taught them for a while.
「What was that, Master and I are the same. As Master’s partner, Fran is not a stranger to me either」
「But you’ve taught me a lot」
「Woof」
「Besides, I need Fran to do her best to help me regain my power」
「Nn! Just leave it to me!」
Fenrir smiled gently at Fran’s firm words.
「Yeah, I’ll count on you. See ya」
「Nn, see ya」
Then, Fenrir puts his hand on Fran and Urushi’s head. As an illusion, he couldn’t touch them directly, but they still look happy. After a few moments of watching at Fran and Urushi’s expressions, he smiled lightly and disappeared without a trace.
I can feel Fenrir falling asleep inside me.
『He fell asleep, huh? Well, we’ll meet him again someday』
「Nn! I’ll do my best!」
「Woof!」
