Ground error: Seeing Jigu at the beginning, shocking Hestia

"Then call directly."

"Yes!"

Bang~

The moment the voice fell, Ai Si's figure disappeared in place, and came to Su Wu across a distance of several meters.

The long sword collided with the long sword, making a fierce knocking sound.

but......

This situation only lasted for a moment.

In the next second, surging power moved towards Aisi along the junction of the two sides.

"Good weight!"

Although it was unbelievable, Ais, who knew that Su Wu could not be suppressed only with the power of LV.3, took advantage of the trend and jumped back.

Then, just when her feet were about to touch the ground, she suddenly concentrated her strength on her legs and stepped heavily on the ground.

In the next instant, she transformed into a golden shadow, rushing towards Su Wu more quickly than before.

but......

"I asked you to control the strength of your body to LV.3. I didn't say that you were not allowed to use magic."

Dodging the blow casually as if walking, Su Wu turned around and kicked Aisi away with a whip.

"If you don't use Wind Spirit to sprint, even if you have the power of LV.3, you can't confront me head-on."

"Can you understand what I said?"

"......Understood."

The golden eyes exuded fiery brilliance, and after truly feeling Su Wu's strength, Aisi, who was completely motivated to fight, stood up again.

"Wake up..."

Pointing the sword at Su Wu, the girl began to chant in a low voice.

"Wind spirit rush away!"

Boom~!

......

"Wow! Mr. Warren, are you okay!"

When Hestia came back to his senses, the training between Su Wu and Ai Si had already started for an hour.

Looking at the blond girl who was constantly being hit like a ball, and finally even flew to her side, Hestia asked with some concern.

"No injuries!"

"No."

Relying on the physical fitness of a high-level adventurer, Aisi, who carried it all the way, shook her head.

After fighting for more than an hour, the fire in her heart was not only not dispelled, but even more soaring.

but......

"Stop first."

Seemingly sensing that Aisi was a bit superior, Su Wu took the initiative to withdraw the weapon in his hand.

"I can still fight!"

"Of course I know you can still fight."

Su Wu replied.

In the previous battles, he had been intentionally or unintentionally inducing Aisi's attack, trying to let the opponent master a more perfect way to exert force.

And as the famous battle girl of Olalie, Ais does have a certain talent in this regard.

At least in the past hour, the opponent's actual combat ability has slightly improved.

This is also the reason why Ai Si hits the top more and more.

But in Su Wu's view, this efficiency is still too low.

At least this level of growth cannot make him feel the joy of being a teacher.

And finally, to become a teacher, you have to be addicted to preaching.

so......

Su Wu pointed out the other party's real problem indifferently.

"What are you looking forward to?"

"look forward to?"

"That's right, just looking forward to it."

In the previous battle, Su Wu, who had seen through the girl's fighting skills and fighting will, asked.

"Your sword skills are not bad, even among adventurers."

"But I can see that there is a touch of expectation in your will to fight."

"Although this doesn't affect your combat, it will affect your speed of becoming stronger."

"......I don't understand."

After a few seconds of silence, Ace shook her head slightly.

"Well...then let me put it another way."

Seeing that Ai Si didn't seem to understand, Su Wu chose a more simple and rude statement.

"Your purpose is for revenge, right?"

"!"

"You don't have to ask me how I know."

Interrupting Ai Si who was about to say something, Su Wu continued to speak.

"My ability is quite special, and I can see a lot of deep things."

"Because of this, I can see the expectation in your heart."

"Are you looking forward to someone who can help you?"

"Help you accomplish your own goals, and help you get rid of the unreachable sea of ​​suffering."

"I do not have......"

Aisi replied with some lack of confidence.

In fact, she really didn't have this kind of thought in the past.

But after Su Wu really pointed out this point, she vaguely realized something was wrong.

"I didn't expect that, I was working hard to become stronger..."

"There is no conflict between expecting and trying to be strong."

Su Wu uncovered Ai Si's scar without changing his face, and sprinkled a handful of salt on it.

"At least the you I saw were looking forward to those."

"Different from the rapid growth in the past, after breaking through to LV.5, you feel your own limit."

"The decline in the speed of your own strengthening, and the concern from your family members, have made your previous hidden expectations in the heart grow stronger again."

"Even because of this, you have the idea of ​​going forward with everyone and completing revenge with their help."

"I'm right, Ace Wallenstein."

......

Is Su Wu's statement correct?

Regarding this point, Ai Si subconsciously gave the answer in her heart as soon as she finished listening.

correct.

Not only is it not wrong, but it is outrageously accurate.

Whether it was what she fantasized in her heart or what she subconsciously expected, the other party accurately pointed it out.

But it was also because of this that Ai Si felt a little shaken.

"...Am I getting weaker?"

pop~

"it hurts."

"Because I have concentrated my strength this time."

Withdrew his right hand as if nothing had happened, and Su Wu, who just gave the other party a brain-dead, said.

"Don't hear half of what you say, just start to think about life inexplicably."

"I pointed out this problem to you, not to ask you to get into some strange horns."

"?"

Ais, who didn't understand at all, was silent for a while, and directly expressed the spirit of a good student, asking if she didn't understand.

"What Su Wu meant was that I became weaker."

"Don't throw me some inexplicable pot, I never said that."

His eyes paused on Aisi's fair forehead, and Su Wu, who wanted to hit her again, said.

"What I really want to say is that you don't want to grow stronger with that kind of expectation, it will only slow down your speed of becoming stronger."

"A hero is someone who resolves difficulties when they arise, and bears them when pain strikes."

"But you need to understand that all heroes are accidents, and no one can guarantee to be there when you need it."

"...that is, I can trust other people, but not be overly dependent on them?"
