After Lucy left, Wise quietly pulled Paipai, who was trying to escape.
"Th-that, did you suddenly ask this person to stay for something? Just to be clear, this person hasn't fully recovered yet..." Paipai, whose small hand was held by Wise, said nervously. She had been woken up by Lucy this morning to talk about this matter, and she was so tired last night. She was very exhausted now. "This person is very tired now, not like you young people who recover so quickly. This person wants to go back to sleep first..."
Wise, listening to Paipai's words, couldn't help but smile. But he hadn't come for this.
"You haven't had time to clean the driver's seat of the Great Molar yet, right?"
"Eh? That's right. When Lucy came to call me this morning, she was stunned when she saw the inside. I could only explain to her that I had accidentally spilled a drink." Although Paipai was puzzled as to why Wise was asking this, she still answered honestly.
"In that case, then let me do the cleaning. Paipai, you can go back and rest." After all, the reason so much "drink" was spilled was largely because of him. Besides, Paipai was not in good spirits at this time, so it was only natural for Wise to do it for her.
"Eh? There's no need. This person can clean those up herself." Paipai waved her hand and refused Wise's kind offer, while also explaining the reason. She had already decided to take off that seat cushion and replace it with a new one. As for the old one, she would keep it properly. "Because that is filled with this person's precious first-time memories. After all, at this age, one will always cherish these things. You don't find it strange, do you?"
Paipai looked at Wise in front of her. She hadn't said it before because of this. The latter, hearing this, was taken aback for a moment, then smiled slightly. He didn't expect that she had thought of the same thing as him. In that case, he didn't need to insist on helping with the cleaning.
After parting with Paipai, Wise strolled around the town a bit more and happened to see Caesar, who was preparing for the Hellfire Ride. "Hm? Isn't this Wise? You're here just in time. Are you free? Want to come and practice with me?" Caesar said happily, while also raising the weapon in her hand. But then she couldn't help but complain a little.
"I don't know what everyone has been so busy with lately. Wright isn't here, Lucy also has something to do, Bernice is working on her new special blend, and it's not good for me to bother Paipai..." Training alone was really too boring. Now that she saw Wise's appearance, Caesar of course wanted to try and get him to join. After all, she still remembered his performance in the Hollow.
The matter of easily killing a high-risk Ethereal alone was not something everyone could do. She had long wanted to compete with Wise. Unfortunately, there was no opportunity. Plus, Lucy always talked about the way of hospitality, saying things like, 'how can you call someone over to help and then hit them?!'
"Well? Want to try?" Caesar said and extended her right hand.
Wise, seeing this, very straightforwardly placed his hand on hers. "Sure."
Seeing him agree so decisively, Caesar was overjoyed. The two soon came to an open space. There was no one around, but that was just right. It wouldn't distract them. The two stood opposite each other. Caesar gripped the weapon in her hand and said to Wise not far away, "Ready? I'm coming!"
As she spoke, Caesar was already charging over with her weapon. And Wise also tightened his grip on the short knife in his hand, his eyes serious and calm as he watched the approaching attack. The metal longsword, carrying a huge force, fiercely slashed at the short knife Wise was holding. This force made Wise's wrist feel slightly numb. To be able to reach this level with pure strength, one could only say, as expected of Caesar?
Wise thought to himself. He then forcefully pushed the longsword away, and Caesar was also pushed back a few steps because of this. "Amazing! In that case, then I won't hold back either!"
Although that's what she said, after all, it was just practice. Neither side would go all out. But even so, Caesar couldn't help but be surprised by Wise's strength. You have to know, her strength was top-tier in the entire Sons of Calydon. No one could win against her in an arm wrestle. But now, Wise could not only block her attack head-on but could even counterattack and suppress her. This couldn't help but make Caesar feel excited.
The two fought with great enthusiasm. It wasn't until after the battle ended that they sat together, covered in sweat. As if feeling stuffy, Caesar subconsciously reached out and pulled at the clothes on her chest, wanting to let her large fruits breathe. As the breeze blew in, Caesar let out a big sigh of relief.
"It's been a long time since I've had such a good fight. Thank you so much for today, Wise." Caesar smiled at Wise beside her. The latter nodded in response. The former, seeing this, continued. "By the way, Wise, if you have time later, can you come and practice with me again?"
As Caesar spoke, she scratched her cheek with some embarrassment. After all, she also felt that this was a bit too much trouble for a guest. But the long-lost sense of satisfaction she had experienced during the battle just now was something she had never experienced from others. After all, no one else had such great strength to go head-to-head with her. Now, after hesitating for a long time, she finally asked tentatively.
"Sure." Wise agreed almost without hesitation. This, in turn, surprised Caesar and left her a little stunned. But she soon thought of a possibility.
"Eh? Could it be that Wise also likes the thrill of battle?" When Caesar said this, she was almost certain in her heart. But who knew that Wise's answer would once again leave her stunned.
"Mhm. Can I say that I like to be with you?"
"Eh?!" After hearing this, Caesar stood there for a moment, at a loss. Looking at the gentle smile on Wise's face, she said to herself, Th-this should just be a joke, right? Or, the reason he likes to be with me is because I'm strong and can fight him, so that's why he said that?
At this moment, Caesar had completely lost the heroic and valiant posture she had during the battle just now. In its place was a dazed, flustered look. In her amber pupils, it was as if a mosquito coil was constantly spinning, fully showing the chaos in the girl's heart.
And at this time, she suddenly thought of a scene recorded in the shojo manga she had read before. Didn't the male lead in it express his true feelings in a joking tone? At that time, the female lead who pretended not to understand the true meaning had made Caesar anxious for a long time. But now that she was truly experiencing this scene, she finally understood how difficult it was.
"Th-th-that's, that's right! Th-then that's great! M-me too, then. L-let's do it again next time!"
