"Well... although some words were omitted, what Ais said is indeed true."
Ron touched his chin thoughtfully, and nodded, finding that there didn't seem to be any big problem with Ais magical description.
"...!"
Like the last straw that broke the camel's back, Hestia suddenly fell silent.
Could it be that...
She is the third party? !
"What's wrong with her?"
Looking at the motionless Hestia, Ais asked worriedly.
"Did she have a stomachache?"
"No, she just thinking too much."
Ron, who had returned after carrying Hestia and placing her on a chair not far away, replied.
"Don't worry about her, she will be fine in a moment."
"Let's hurry up and have a simple fight first."
The fight Ron mentioned naturally did not mean a head-on fight where both sides opened fire at full force.
He hasn't expanded to that point yet.
In the face of absolute power and speed, so-called skills are a joke.
If he really came to a fight with a lv 5 adventurer like Ais, he would not be a match for her right now.
so...
"Please control your body's strength to level 3."
"Level 3?"
"That's right."
Seeing that Ais seemed a little confused, Ron began to explain.
"Didn't I go to the grain depot and fight yesterday?"
"After I came back, I collected enough high-level experience points to level up. Now I'm at level 2."
"Hmm... I see."
Ais nodded.
Unlike her usual curiosity about how other people became stronger, she was not surprised why Ron was able to advance so quickly.
After all, even if she understood Ron's outrageous fighting style, she couldn't learn it.
Instead of aiming too high and learning unrealistic methods, it is better to learn some basics from Ron first.
Drawing the rapier from her waist and pointing it at Ron, Ais's expression became serious.
"I'm ready."
"Then you can start first."
"yes!"
Bang!
The moment the words fell, Ais's figure disappeared from the spot and came in front of Ron across a distance of several meters.
The long swords collided with each other, making a fierce Familiaging sound.
but...
This situation only lasted for a moment.
The next second, a surge of force flowed along the junction of the two sides and pressed towards Ais.
"It's so heavy!"
Although it was incredible, Ais realized that she could not suppress Ron with only the power of LV.3, so she leaped back.
Then, just as her feet were about to touch the ground, she suddenly gathered her strength in her legs and stomped heavily on the ground.
The next moment, she turned into a golden shadow and rushed towards Ron even faster than before.
but...
"I asked you to control your body's strength to level 3, but I didn't say that you can't use magic."
Ron dodged the attack casually as if taking a walk, then turned around and kicked Ais away with a whip kick.
"If you don't use the Wind magic, you won't be able to fight me head-on even if you have LV.3 power."
"Can you understand what I mean?"
"...Understood."
There was a fiery light emanating from her golden eyes. After truly feeling Ron's strength, Ais, whose fighting spirit was completely aroused, stood up again.
"Wake up..."
Pointing the tip of the sword at Ron, the girl began to sing in a low voice.
Boom~!
...
"Woooa!"
When Hestia came to her senses, the training between Ron and Ais had already started for an hour.
Looking at the blonde girl who was hit back and forth like a ball and finally flew to her side, Hestia asked with some concern.
"You're not hurt?!"
"No."
Ais, who had managed to get through the entire process thanks to the physical fitness of a high-level adventurer, shook her head.
After fighting for more than an hour, the passion in her heart not only did not dissipate, but became even stronger.
but...
"Stop for now."
As if he realized that Ais was a little too excited, Ron took back the weapon in his hand.
"I can still fight!"
"Of course I know you can still fight."
Ron replied.
In the previous battles, he had been intentionally or unintentionally inducing Ais's attacks, trying to make the opponent master a more perfect way of exerting force.
As a famous adventurer in Orario, Ais does have a certain talent in this area.
At least in the past hour, the opponent's actual combat ability has improved slightly.
This is also the reason why Ais gets more and more excited as the fight goes on.
However, in Ron's opinion, this efficiency is still too low.
At least this level of growth cannot make him feel the joy of being a teacher.
Besides, since it is not easy to become a teacher, I must satisfy my desire to preach.
so...
Ron pointed out the other party's real problem without any concern.
"What are you looking forward to?"
"look forward to?"
"Yes, I am looking forward to it."
Ron, who had seen through the girl's fighting skills and will in the previous battle, asked.
"Your swordsmanship is not bad, and you are even at the top level among adventurers."
"But I can see that there is a hint of anticipation in your fighting spirit."
"Although this does not affect your combat ability, it will affect the speed at which you become stronger."
"...I don't understand."
After a few seconds of silence, Ais shook her head slightly.
"Well... let me put it another way."
Seeing that Ais didn't seem to understand, Ron chose a simpler and more straightforward statement.
"Your purpose is revenge, right?"
"!"
"You don't have to ask me how I know that."
Interrupting Ais who was about to say something, Ron continued.
"My ability is quite special. I can see a lot of deep things."
"That's why I can see the expectation in your heart."
"Are you expecting someone to help you?"
"Help you achieve your goals and help you escape from the unreachable sea of suffering."
"I don't..."
Ais replied with a lack of confidence.
In fact, she had never had such an idea in the past.
However, after Ron pointed this out, she vaguely realized that something was wrong.
"I don't expect that. I am working hard to become stronger..."
"Expectations and working hard to become stronger are not in conflict."
Ron uncovered Ais's scar without changing his expression and sprinkled a handful of salt on it.
"At least from what I see, you are looking forward to those things."
"Unlike your rapid growth in the past, you felt your own limits after reaching LV.5."
"The slowdown in your own growth rate and the concern from your Familia members have made the expectations that you had hidden deep in your heart grow stronger again."
"It even makes you want to move forward with everyone and complete your revenge with their help."
"I'm a right, Ais Wallenstein."
