"Alright, everyone, gathered 'round!"
"Yes! We're ready!"
While Sho was interrogating Azenda and Yami was in class, the elementary and middle school group was about to begin their training for the tournament.
Vivio and the others had gathered at the park they always used for training. Around them, many other people were also training. This park was a place often used for that purpose.
There were no absences. The group consisted of Vivio, Corona, Rio, Kuro, Tina, Einhart, Kirin, and Nove. In addition, two of Nove's sisters had come to help out.
Everyone had changed out of their school uniforms into something more comfortable for exercise. Their motivation was high.
Since it had been decided that they would participate in the tournament two months from now, special training for it would begin today.
"First, let me say this. All of your fighting styles are too different. I've decided that it'll be difficult to improve your specialties if we train together. So, other than basic training—your individual lessons will be handled separately, and I'll leave the teachers to my sisters. You know these two, right?"
With that, Nove introduced two women.
Corona's coach was Otto, who had a androgynous appearance. Rio's coach was Deed, a mature woman with distinctive chestnut-brown straight hair. Nove herself would be in charge of Vivio.
"So, how much stronger we've all gotten will be a surprise at the tournament, right!?"
"That's right. Train hard and amaze everyone."
"Tina and I aren't participating in the tournament, so we'll be on support duty."
"I'll do my best..."
Nove handed out white wristbands from a box she had placed on the ground, one for each child.
"And that's it. Here. Before training, put these on first."
The children tilted their heads but did as they were told. The effect was immediate.
"M-My body feels heavy...!"
"I can't use magic well either..."
"It's not to limit your physical strength, but your magical power."
"Once you get used to it, we'll gradually increase the load."
Nove's two sisters explained.
"At your age, the more you use your magic, the more it grows! If you practice diligently for two months, you'll be a completely different person. Basically, don't take them off unless you're sleeping. For now, go for a short run as a warm-up."
"Okay..."
When the children returned, they were all heavily out of breath. Nove nodded, thinking that was what to expect at first, and then explained the stretching and training menu before dismissing them. Rio and Corona went off to do their respective training.
Vivio stayed behind because Nove was in charge of her.
"And now, about Einhart and Kirin..."
Nove turned to the two who remained.
"To be honest, your fighting styles are a bit special. You two know more about them than I do, right? You both have the basics down, and all you need to do now is improve... "
That was certainly true. Kirin's style was the Todo school, and Einhart's was the Haoh school, but neither was something anyone could easily dabble in.
"Magic battles are one thing, but a katana—and a real one at that—is outside my expertise... So I thought it would be better for you to train at home. And for Einhart, I feel it's wrong for me to break the current form of the Haoh style."
Because they were both so complete, Nove was hesitant to interfere.
"So instead, I'll set up a bunch of practice matches for you. Once you reach a certain level, real combat is the best way to grow."
"Thank you!!"
By the way, Kuro and Tina were going to be following these two.
"Oh, speaking of which, I heard the device for me will be ready this weekend..."
"The Yagami family works fast. Got it, I'll make sure not to include that."
The completion date for Einhart's device had also been decided. Incidentally, Kirin, being a daughter of the Todo school, already had a pretty good one.
With that, Nove took the fully recovered Vivio and left.
"Well, nothing specific has been set for us today, so what should we do?"
"Since we're here, how about we take turns fighting each other?"
There were no objections. They decided on an order and took their stances.
In a different area, Vivio, Corona, and Rio had also started their special training.
The girls all worked up a sweat.
---------
"Phew..."
Einhart lay on her bed in her room. She had already showered and was wearing a rough t-shirt and pants.
"O-ouch..."
When she moved her body, a dull ache shot through her everywhere. She had been fighting in a mock battle all day, and it had only stopped when Nove intervened. She wasn't injured, but her entire body was sore from overexerting herself.
(Kuro-san was really strong. And Tina-san was stronger than I expected...)
She had fought Kuro once before, and never Tina, but today's training made her feel like she had been taught just how amazing they were all over again.
(They're both younger than me, but they know so much more about how to fight.)
Kuro had the memories of the heroic spirits of her class cards. Tina had the countless missions she had completed before meeting Sho. These things gave them skills beyond their age.
They knew how to defeat an opponent better than Einhart, who had been clueless about what to do and had only gotten into street fights.
(But I don't feel the same difference as before.)
She didn't feel the same one-sided difference as she did when she fought Kuro before.
(It must be because I met Vivio-san and the others.)
In fact, she could tell her skills were improving rapidly since she started practicing with everyone.
Compared to when she was cooped up in her room, struggling with a ton of training equipment, her growth was incredibly fast.
The catalyst was when she challenged Nove to a street fight. She was a person she owed a great debt to, someone who still looked after her. And at the same time, another person came to mind.
"Kirin-san became Sho-san's battle sister, right?"
Einhart wasn't aiming to be a Butei for any specific ambition. When she thought about her goal, she thought it would be more convenient to be a Butei.
A Butei license was, in a sense, a mercenary license.
For Einhart, who wanted to prove the strength of the Haoh style on the battlefield, it was a much more convenient position that allowed her to move more freely than belonging to an official organization like the Bureau.
However, now she felt as if the path she had been so convinced of had become blurred.
The more she enjoyed her current life, the more she recalled the memories of "Haoh Ingvalt" that had driven her until now.
"I need to figure out what I want to do."
Einhart's heart had changed and was now determined enough for her to think in such a positive way.
However, she still couldn't feel confident in that thought.
"I wonder what Sho-san would say..."
The name slipped from her lips.
Einhart actually knew little about Sho. This was because the incidents she was involved in were classified or because she had fought him in the past.
Just as much, she didn't understand his reason for fighting.
It was rare to find someone with such a powerful will. He was a person who had been a major factor in changing Einhart's heart.
What would she call their current relationship? Kuro's friend's sister? Or a training partner? Both were relationships that could easily disappear.
"If I had known this, I would have become his battle sister too..."
She murmured and then gasped. Einhart blushed at the words that came out of her mouth without thinking.
(That's... The way I said that... it sounds like I want to be his battle sister because I want a relationship with Sho-san...)
She shook her head to cut off her impure thoughts and stared at the ceiling.
Although Kirin hadn't publicly announced it, her intentions were clear. And Sho also understood that.
What Einhart recalled was the scene she saw in the park.
Einhart wasn't mature enough to easily forget someone else's tryst—or more accurately, the step just before it, or even more accurately, the fact that nothing happened afterward.
The scene she pictured in her mind began to move.
"Mmm... ah..."
Like a fire that had been stoked too much, her body's heat continued to rise.
Sho's and Kirin's faces got closer and closer, and then they overlapped. Kirin smiled happily and leaned into Sho. Just as she had been tempted, Sho grabbed her large breasts over her clothes.
Kirin squirmed, whether it was because she was happy her weapon worked, or because she was embarrassed, or for some other emotion.
Einhart could only hide and watch.
When she realized it, Kirin and Einhart had switched places.
The volume was overwhelmingly smaller compared to Kirin's, but Sho still cherished it. He was gently, ever so gently, caressing the peaks that had started to assert themselves through the thin t-shirt.
At some point, the t-shirt had been lifted, and his right hand was on her chest. His other hand was on her stomach. It was soothing the spot deep inside her that had started to throb with heat.
She had only recently learned about the small protrusions at the top of her breasts. She also learned about the tingling sensation that came with it.
She had also learned when it happened. Even though she instinctively knew it was "wrong," she couldn't stop her hands.
Sho's touch from her imagination was recreated.
"No, I can't be doing this again, with Sho-san and Kirin, mmm, I-I, they weren't doing this..."
The hand that was on her stomach moved into her pants, as if giving in to temptation. The triangular cloth beneath was already starting to feel moist.
Even with only a few experiences, Einhart understood the meaning of this fluid. At the time, she had blushed, remembering what had happened in the bathroom.
Einhart now was looking at what came after, rather than the meaning.
Her trained abs began to spasm irregularly. Her legs tensed, and a floating sensation rose from deep within her stomach, spreading throughout her body.
It was undoubtedly the physical reaction of a woman reaching a climax.
"Phew, phew, phew...!"
She gritted her teeth and closed her eyes. Once she got to this point, she couldn't stop.
She smeared the overflowing fluid onto her fingertips and desperately rubbed the hard part in her cleft.
(A-ah! It's coming, it's coming, coming coming coming coming—!!)
Beep, beep, beep—
"!"
Her terminal's call rang. She grabbed it from where it was carelessly thrown on the bed and looked at the screen.
The caller was—the Team Nakajima group call.
A wave of guilt washed over Einhart for some reason, as if she had done something wrong. She couldn't stay still and got up from the bed to answer it.
A semi-transparent screen and five familiar faces appeared in front of her. She forced herself to speak calmly.
"Good evening, everyone."
The faces on the screen included the one she had been imagining just moments before, and her guilt became more pronounced.
"You must be tired! How was today's training? Wait, Einhart-san, are you standing?"
"Uh, ah... I... just couldn't calm down a little."
"Are you perhaps about to train!?"
"Just a little, yes, I was thinking of training."
"You shouldn't, Einhart-san! Master Nove said you have to rest your body properly!"
"R-Right! Yes, I'll stop for today."
Vivio put up her index finger and scolded her. Einhart managed to deceive her and sat down on the bed.
"..."
As she sat down, she felt the hot fluid moisten her inner thighs. She could feel a throbbing deep inside her stomach. She couldn't stop thinking about it.
Her body, which had been on the verge of reaching the peak, demanded one last push. The two peaks of her thin, still-developing breasts. If she just pinched and kneaded one of them with her fingers. Or if she just stroked the little bean that was trying to peek out from her wet cleft.
However, Einhart's reason held her hand back at the last moment.
"You say that, but are you secretly training too, Vivio?"
"I'm exhausted today too!"
"You're right... This wristband is really tough."
"Do you keep it on all the time? Don't you wash it?"
"That's true... Maybe we should ask Nove-san about it."
"It's dirty to keep wearing the same thing all the time."
She could only nod along to the conversation.
(Please, end soon...)
Einhart's mind could only think about that now. Her throbbing, blurry head couldn't regain its usual clear thinking.
Unable to wait even a second longer, Einhart resorted to a shameful method.
"I-I'm sorry. I'm tired, so I'm going to rest now...!"
"Okay? Alright! Good night!"
She managed to force the words out and hung up the call.
Of course, she wasn't going to sleep.
"I'm the worst... I'm the absolute worst..."
Even though she said that, her hands didn't stop.
"Hah... hah, hah... ah... ahhhhh! Ahhhhh! Oh! Hiii...!"
Her hands, which had been placed on her sensitive parts without hesitation the moment she hung up the call, were now greedily devouring pleasure more intensely than before.
The little buds of her breasts, which had grown about an inch, were being steadily developed by the innocent touch of the girl. If she just squeezed them with a "squish," her legs would start to tremble.
Normally, it would hurt to pinch and play with her clitoris, but tonight, it felt so good her mind went blank.
Her body, which should have cooled down after a while, climbed to the peak again,
"Aaaaaah!!! Ahhhhhhh...!!!"
The body that had been teased rewarded Einhart with an even deeper sense of climax.
