14 Training and Dungeon

In a large sandy space, there were two people, one of them with crossed arms, while looking at his partner, who was trying to hit the point of a small ring that was anchored to a log.

"Hmm ... she does concentrate very easily eh ... but why did she prefer the bow over daggers?" Chris wondered, since, before even coming to the training ground, he had given Jill a choice of weapon and finding out of everything he thought, she chose a rather worn bow.

What happened was the following: The next day after the little celebration they had, Rito decided to go on an excursion to the dungeon together with Jill and Bulma, but before going on his first team adventure, he thought about testing the skills of his companions. Regarding Bulma, he didn't know what kind of other job he could do, except for 'Blacksmith', after all, compared to the various prodigious abilities Jill had for combat, Bulma had so much skill at crafting artifacts, as for the creation of substances, so, currently she was waiting in the room she had with Jill, waiting for Rito and Jill to finish their training.

Back with Jill, she was currently shooting several arrows towards a single point, although the truth was very good at hand-to-hand combat, from a very young age she was always fond of archery, even being captain of her archery club school.

She almost never had any kind of difficulty with the handling of the bow, but it was the first time, that she felt as if an enormous pressure was accumulating in her hands and arms. But quite contrary to the pained expression on Jill's face, Rito had a rather confident smile on her face, as, for a while now, she has been sending a large amount of [Reiryoku] around her arms of Jill, the reason why he did it, was because, he hoped to increase the dexterity and skill with which Jill used the bow, after all, even though his shot could be considered fast normally, it was still very slow if he wanted to hit a monster inside the dungeon.

After several attempts by Jill missing every shot, Rito decided to stop training and told her partner to put the bow aside. Approaching where his partner was, he handed her a handkerchief to wipe off the accumulated sweat on her body, but the moment she began to wipe herself, Rito couldn't help but look at Jill's beautiful body and the beautiful aroma that radiated from she, while in turn, could not remove her eyes from the seductive sight of Jill wiping every sweaty part of her body ...

"Hmm? ... Are you okay?" Jill asked, as she seemed to her like Rito was lost right now, and she was wondering if he was sick or something like that.

Regaining his consciousness, Rito quickly shook his head from side to side and after a few seconds he simply said. "Ignore me, I just got lost in my thoughts ... by the way, how do you feel, I mean, you managed to hit it at first, but then you stopped"

"That ..... Sigh * I don't know, I felt a great heaviness in my arms and hands, it wasn't pain, but it seemed like I was holding several buckets full of cement" Jill mentioned, feeling quite frustrated that she hadn't been able to hit your goals every time.

Seeing the rather frustrated look on his partner, Rito just lets out a little laugh and says. "Okay, you don't need to get depressed, for sure you will be better once we get to the dungeon"

Putting a pouting expression on her face, because she felt that Rito was teasing her, even though she was older than him, but still, she decided to let it go, after all, she was still a little tired after have been trying to aim the bow.

After some time has passed, Rito starts to get up off the ground, starting to dust off her clothes. Jill that she was watching this action, she knew it was time to go back to training, or at least that's what she thought, until she heard Rito say. "Well, it's time to go, she remembers, we must also help Bulma find her 'place' in the team"

Remembering the rather careless but very clever young girl, Jill simply nods and promises herself to get through her training the next time she does it, but what she didn't know, was that for Rito, this was simply an entry into true training, since, he had already planned to give her a rather mysterious surprise once they entered the dungeon.

...

"So where are we supposed to go first?" Bulma asked inattentively, as she was looking at the various jewels that were displayed at the stalls they were passing by.

Seeing the young woman quite carefree, Rito doubted for a moment if she was really the Bulma he knew, but remembering that she was his younger version, he simply shook his head from side to side and kept walking, while trying to explain to Jill who will act as relaxed as possible, since the person they were going to see was the Vice-Captain of the Hephestaus family, so despite having a letter written by Loki, they still had to remember that they should act like if they were part of this 'world'.

Once he finished explaining to Jill, he began to say the same to Bulma and in less than what he would have thought, the three of them were already in front of a huge mansion that despite being able to have several people inside, it did not seem not even that there were any, except for the guard who let them pass and a few maids, who kindly received Rito, Jill and Bulma, taking them to their mistress's chambers.

Arriving in front of a door, they wait a while, because the maid entered to notify her mistress of her visits and the moment she left, she told them that they should first leave their things before passing, something that each one of them did easily, after all, Rito was more than enough if something happened, at least that's what he thought.

Dull Noise * Steps * Dull Noise *

The moment they entered, the three of them could feel a strange atmosphere, almost as if it wanted to suffocate them, but strangely, it also seemed to be taking care of them. Once they recovered from this strange feeling, the three of them looked towards the desk in front of them, but to their surprise, there was no one, or so they believed, until they heard a female voice, come from their left flank saying. "Wow, I can't believe that Hephestaus-sama accepted Loki-sama's request, by the way, you two have a good body huh, plus you boy, despite being soft, you have great restrained strength ...."

The woman who had appeared, had a fairly beautiful and healthy brown complexion, jet black hair, had one red eye, while the other was being covered by a patch, her body seemed to be a magnet for any man, since anyone who saw her would say that she was one of the most sensual women they have ever seen in their life, she had a large bust and quite large hips, the clothing she was wearing only increased her charm, wearing only a sarashi that left exposing her navel, while a hakama covered her entire bottom, exposing her rather seductive legs.

Despite the fact that anyone could fall under the charm of the woman's body, Rito was the opposite, since he knew very well what type of personality the quite attractive brunette had. Shortly after, Rito's thoughts came true, as the woman with the patch was beginning to inspect her body without limitations, even hugging him from behind her, only to see if there was any muscle in her back.

Both Jill and Bulma were dumbfounded since neither of them could believe how daring the woman who had appeared out of nowhere was, the scene they were seeing was that of Chris, looking at the woman with a confused expression, while this the latter just kept touching every part of his body, of course, except for a few more personal ones.

"Nod * Nod * So, you are the person who will be in my care from now on, if so, then we should start your training from now on ..." going to where her desk was, the woman with the eyepatch , he takes a hammer out of one of the drawers and throws it at Rito, but before he goes on with what he wanted to say, Rito starts talking and says. "I appreciate that you have considered me an apprentice to [Blacksmith], but the person you should train is her, not me"

Following the finger where Rito was pointing, the dark-skinned woman calmly looked at Bulma, but after a while, she turned her head and said. "Are you sure about this? I mean, it's not that she doesn't seem to have the structure of a [Blacksmith], besides, I don't know if her body can withstand the abstenuating heat that is in my forge room"

"It's okay you don't have to worry, even though she doesn't seem like it, she's a pretty skillful girl, besides, she'd be a bad partner if I didn't trust her right?" Rito said, as he looked at where Bulma was with a smile, surprising and making the latter blush, because she was moved by the trust that Rito had in her.

"Jo ~, it seems that a heartbreaker other than Finn joined the Loki family ..." looking at the boy, the dark-skinned woman, she approaches him and says. "Okay, I will do my best to fulfill the agreement that your goddess and Hephestaus-sama made, by the way, my name is Tsubaki Collbrande and as you may have already realized, I am the captain of the Hephestaus family"

"Nod * Thank you very much for accepting the selfish request of my goddess, by the way, you have a bow and some daggers, I would like to buy some things before going to the dungeon" said Rito, while showing a sack full of coins.

At this, Tsubaki simply nodded and called for her maid to show her where the weapons gallery was. Watching Rito and Jill leave, Tsubaki shifts her attention to the surprisingly stiff Bulma, who seemed to be quite scared of her.

"Yoish ~, we will start your training from now on, follow me and do everything I tell you, do you understand?" Tsubaki asked, as she did her best to hold his inner laugh, since it seemed quite funny to have a disciple to intimidate, of course, except for the little redhead who was also part of his family...

...

"Well, from now on you will be the one who will attack the monsters that appear, if at any time you feel in danger or threatened, I will notice it immediately and I will come to help you, okay?" Rito asked, as he handed the bow and arrows to Jill, as he took the katana and daggers that he had gotten from Tsubaki's gallery.

Nodding at Rito's comment, Jill accepts the bow and arrows, Jill begins to walk towards a rock and once there, she climbs on the rock and finally visualizing her targets, she begins to shoot the arrows. Managing to hit a goblin in the head, Jill continued to shoot her arrows, but since she had alarmed the other goblins and kobolds in the area, she had the urge to move the other way so that the monsters would not hit her.

Even if she was moving, she managed to hit most of the monsters, but when she realized, the arrows had already run out and the still large herd of monsters began to get to where she was, without wasting time, Jill took the dagger that was on her waist and after taking a few breaths, she runs off to where the monsters were.

Seeing the impartial battle that was unfolding in front of him, Rito simply put on a wry smile, he knew that Jill was very good at hand-to-hand combat, seeing the fight that was being created only increased the conclusion that he already had in his mind, Jill seemed to be a beautiful killing machine, she was literally humiliating the monsters she was dealing with.

"Well, he will face rather worse things in his life .... Maybe I should help him improve a little more" Once Rito said this, Rito's eyes began to glow an orange hue and the small rocks to his surroundings were beginning to crack.

What Rito was doing, was concentrating his [Reiryoku], enough that he could release a fairly high amount of his [Reiatsu] from him. This was a training method, in which, the practitioner needed to impose a certain physical weight on the whole body, the stronger the accumulated pressure, the greater the increase in your physical abilities, but this was not the only reason why Rito chose this technique that she had learned, the reason why she started using it, was to improve her control over her energy, while in turn, placing Jill in a weak state, in this way, she would not trust her skills and would continue training despite being strong ..

"Sigh * Good, now the only thing left is for Jill to bear it ..." said Rito, as he sent a great amount of pressure throughout Jill's body, causing her to lose her balance in that instant, earning a superficial wound from a kobold. Feeling the seemingly familiar feeling, Jill thinks she should ask Rito for help, but in that, she remembers what she had promised herself in the morning's training, so, grasping the dagger she was holding with greater force, she leaned back puts in a pose of military combat and rushes before the enormous amount of monsters, feeling a strong pain in every part of his body ...

While the two of them were in their respective worlds, neither had realized that they were being observed by a somewhat peculiar person, who, despite seeing that Jill needed help, did nothing, completely ignoring her and simply concentrating on Rito, which one seemed to be meditating ...

"I should report this to him ..... no, I'd better keep watching, I need to find out what that boy had done on the 12th floor ...."
