S-RANK IN ANOTHER WORLD 45 Training With Mary

When I woke up in the morning, I had breakfast with Lily and went to school again.

When I got there, Mary was waiting for me again.

'That's why there are rumors'

Not that I didn't like her waiting for me, but that would create more rumors about us.

After we greeted each other again we went to cla.s.s.

Again the cla.s.s was very boring. I was looking forward to next week for the mock match. I had already chosen Mary as my adversary.

During cla.s.s, the teacher announced the pairs for the mock match.

I will face Mary.

Lily will face Flora.

Edna will face Carol.

Gabiy will face Roberta.

Fernando will face Lopes.

Renan will face Clever.

Marcus will face Cliff.

Youji will face Serg.

Apparently Greg didn't get a pair for the battle, so he will train with the teacher. I don't know if his can handle 2 seconds in a fight with her, but I'm sorry Greg.

After the pairs were introduced, the teacher continued the cla.s.s normally until the end. When cla.s.s was over I went to Mary's desk.

"Mary, are we going to train today?" (Endl)

I was wondering if we were going to train today since it's the first day we officially became a pair to fight in the tournament.

"Yes, meet me at the training ground in 10 minutes" (Mary)

"Alright" (Endl)

After that, I left the room and talked to Lily. Apparently she is not going to train today, so I said she could go inn, since I will stay at school later.

Lily said goodbye to me and left, and I headed toward the training ground.

The training ground was just a very large field behind the school, this camp apparently used a protective spell. Apparently a person cannot die within this barrier, so the tournament is also held here.

'So can I seriously fight Mary?'

We wouldn't fight now, just let's practice, but on the day of practical training I won't hold against her.

After waiting for about 20 minutes, Mary appeared.

"You're late" (Endl)

"D-Sorry" (Mary)

It seems that Mary ran here, she did her best not to be late. She told me that she needed to take care of some matters that the teacher asked, that's why she was late.

"Whatever, let's get started?" (Endl)

After that we started our training.

___________________________________

The training was simple, we just kept using our spells against each other. I taught Mary how to make better use of magic, and how to feel the flow of mana.

Mary had a knowledge of magic, but it was very bad, so I helped her as much as I could.

During training Mary's Wind Magic went up to Level 2, usually spells go up pretty fast to Level 2, but to go up to Level 3 it takes a long time.

"You're too strong Endl" (Mary)

Mary was disappointed that I was so much stronger than her. I used some level 3 spells, so Mary was impressed.

'I better not use spells above that'

I didn't want to expose all my power, so I only used level 3 spells.

I kept helping Mary. I helped her how to see better mana flow, and how to cast magic.

Mary didn't even know how to cast magic, she's like me at the beginning of everything.

After that we trained a little fencing. Mary came at me with everything, but as I had Master Swordsman skill, I had no difficulty in containing her attacks.

After further training, Mary's Level 1 Sword Talent skill has risen to Level 2.

I couldn't level up with training, so I was just helping Mary with her training.

Apparently I could not rise from Level 3 to 4 only with training because it takes too long. Few people can reach magic level 5. And only older people like the teacher can have a level above that, but it needs a lot of training.

"Hey Mary, what do you think, we're done for today??" (Endl)

As it was getting dark I decided to stop the training here. As the country was under threat from demons I would not want to stay up too late on the streets.

"Alright" (Mary)

After that Mary and I decided to go home. But it was getting dark so I offered to take her to the inn she was staying at.

"I'll take you to the inn" (Endl)

"T-Alright" (Mary)

Mary apparently was red again, but I didn't care that much and we walked to the inn she was staying at. The inn she was in looked almost the same as Lily and I were staying..

"Thank you Endl" (Mary)

After Mary thanked me, she entered the inn.

'Beautiful'

Again I thought she was beautiful. But she was very beautiful, so there was no way not to think about it.

As I was coming home halfway, I heard some people shouting in a nearby alley.

I ran as fast as I could.

'What the f.u.c.k is going on?'
