Chapter 49 Rookie Adventurers Saeko Busujima and Tatsumi vs. Riveria!
Orario - Adventurers' Guild - Mansion Area.
When Tatsumi arrived in the backyard, he saw Rivera and Saeko Busujima standing facing each other.
A tense atmosphere filled the air.
After their initial clash, Saeko Busujima launched another attack.
The wooden sword in her hand sliced through the air as she charged toward Riveria with unwavering determination.
However, just as the blade was about to touch her opponent, an invisible barrier appeared in front of Riveria once again, blocking the attack.
"This is a magic shield."
Riveria's voice was as calm as water.
"Even your speed cannot break through my defense."
Upon hearing this, Saeko Busujima did not give up.
She tried different attack methods, attempting to find Riveria's weakness, but each time Riveria skillfully evaded her.
Despite the girl's relentless barrage of wooden swords, Riveria remained calm. She not only used a magical shield to block Saeko Busujima's attacks but also occasionally unleashed small magical spells to disrupt her rhythm.
Chen Hai, who was standing to the side, decided not to disturb them and to play the role of a good audience member.
At that moment, Saeko Busujima suddenly felt a chill beneath her feet and looked down at the ground.
Riveria's small-area freezing spell slowed down Saeko Busujima's progress.
Just as Saeko Busujima was worried about the ice exploding, a gust of wind came from the front.
Saeko Busujima, engulfed by the terrifying wind, lost her balance and fell to the ground due to the slippery, icy ground.
Seeing Saeko Busujima looking somewhat disheveled, Rivera walked over and extended her right hand.
"Let's take a rest first."
"Ok."
As Rivera helped Saeko Busujima up, her gaze also fell on Tatsumi.
"Mr. Tatsumi?"
Saeko Busujima also noticed Tatsumi's figure.
Chen Hai, who was being stared at by the two women, walked over.
"I hope I haven't bothered you."
"Don't worry about that, Mr. Chenhai."
After finishing her sentence, Saeko Busujima walked towards the bench in the courtyard.
The chairs are large enough to seat six people, so three people can sit comfortably.
After they were seated, Chen Hai finally asked the question.
Why are you training together?
"Today I didn't go out with Miss Hestia and the others. Instead, I registered at the Adventurers' Guild and became an adventurer."
"I never expected you to do this..."
"Because I heard them say that the fastest way to become stronger in this world is to become an adventurer and train in Mr. Chenhai's dungeon."
Saeko Busujima had no intention of sitting idly by and waiting to die.
As for why we're practicing here...
"When Miss Busujima registered with the guild, I happened to be there and was just about to inquire about Lord Chenhai's whereabouts when Miss Busujima overheard me and explained your situation to me."
And so, Saeko Busujima and Riveria met.
Then, Saeko Busujima learned from an Adventurers' Guild employee that "Riveria is one of Orario's top adventurers," so she decided to ask her for advice. In the end, the two chose to have a training session in the backyard.
Rivera trains Saeko Busujima.
When Chen Hai arrived at the scene, the two had just started their second match.
"There's a third game coming up."
After Riveria finished speaking, she looked at Chen Hai.
"Actually, the reason I came to see Mr. Chen Hai this time is to ask about Ais."
"What's wrong with Ais?"
"She just eats, drinks, and sleeps all the time, and doesn't train at all. It's very strange..."
"Don't worry about that, I'm the one who made Ais do this; let her rest and recuperate for more than ten hours, eat and drink her fill, and then we'll arrange a high-difficulty mission for her. I'm sure she'll be able to easily break through her current adventurer level after the training is over."
"So that's it."
Having received an explanation, Riveria was no longer so worried.
She thought Ais had become lazy lately...
After discussing this, Rivera, whose doubts had been resolved, turned to look at Saeko Busujima.
"I am a mage, not a swordsman, but I do have some knowledge of weapons."
Rivera's gaze fell on the wooden sword.
“Miss Busujima, the wooden sword you are currently using is suitable for practice, but it may not be sufficient in actual combat, especially when facing stronger enemies.”
She pointed out the limitations of the wooden sword used by Saeko Busujima and explained that the weight and feel would be different if a real samurai sword were used instead.
"A real sword is much heavier than a wooden sword, and the center of gravity is also different. You need to adapt to this change in advance in order to unleash your full potential in a real battle."
Rivera added.
She also mentioned that when using a real knife, it is necessary to pay attention to wrist strength training, because improper use may lead to wrist injury.
It's just like a mother taking meticulous care of her child...
After listening, Saeko Busujima looked up at the sky.
"I've used real swords before, but that wasn't my main weapon training; if I were to use a real sword... where can I buy a katana in this world? Do katanas even exist in this world?"
Saeko Busujima, who knew little about the labyrinth city, asked a question.
Chen Hai said he could have one custom-made for her.
Anyway, there is no shortage of money.
After a few minutes of rest, the third and final training match began.
This time, Saeko Busujima was noticeably more cautious. She carefully observed Riveria's movements, trying to find a weakness in her.
However, Riveria's magical skills far exceeded expectations; she could not only quickly construct protective magic, but also simultaneously unleash offensive magic to counterattack.
For example, a few seconds ago, Chen Hai saw Saeko Busujima seize a fleeting opportunity and suddenly dash to the right rear of Riveria's blind spot.
Just as Saeko Busujima's wooden sword was about to reach its target, Rivera suddenly reacted.
She tapped the ground lightly with the staff in her right hand, and a powerful force erupted from her body, sending Saeko Busujima flying.
Just as Saeko Busujima was about to crash into the wall, Tatsumi appeared like a ghost and caught her steadily.
"Are you okay?"
He asked the girl in his arms.
Saeko Busujima shook her head, her eyes showing frustration, but she did not give up.
At this moment, Rivera slowly approached, her expression both serious and gentle.
"Ms. Busujima, you did a good job,"
The vice-commander of the Loki Familia continued...
"But in battle, you can sometimes be too impatient and forget the importance of thinking calmly."
She paused for a moment and commented.
"Furthermore, when you are focused on attacking, you often ignore the changes around you, which can put you in danger; even if my counterattack just now hadn't worked, the magic circles I had scattered nearby would have activated immediately during our fight, interrupting your attack."
After she finished speaking, magical light began to shine around them; it was a magic circle that Riveria had prepared to ensure the success of the battle.
It's clear that Riveria is very cautious and serious.
Even in a training match against Saeko Busujima, a LV.1 newcomer, they didn't let their guard down at all.
Upon hearing these words, Saeko Busujima fell into deep thought.
She realized that Riveria was not only pointing out her weaknesses, but also telling her how to become a better warrior.
"Thank you, Miss Rivera."
Saeko Busujima said seriously
"I will remember today's lesson."
On her second day in this world, Saeko Busujima truly experienced the gap between herself and the adventurers.
Especially strong characters like Riveria, who are ranked among the top in Orario.
Even without using magic, she could defeat Saeko Busujima, who is currently at LV.1.
"Where is Lord Chen Hai? Is he free now?"
"Why do you ask?"
"I'm very curious about just how powerful you are, the one who rules the dungeon..."
Riveria, the vice-captain of the Loki Familia, had a sudden urge to fight Chen Hai.
"How about we have a training match?"
Chen Hai was the first to make a suggestion.
After listening, Rivera's expression turned serious, and she responded softly.
"I'd be happy to."
Chapter 50 Rivera: Want to have dinner with me? Saeko Busujima: What about me?
The same 'temporary training combat ground'.
This place is surrounded by a magical barrier, so there's no need to worry about the conflict between the two elements damaging the surrounding environment.
Of course, this is all on the premise that the power does not exceed the critical value of this barrier...
Chen Hai smiled and promised.
"Don't worry, I can't possibly go all out."
"In front of Lord Chenhai, I think an adventurer like me is indeed not good enough."
When their eyes met, Riveria smiled as well.
"Then, let's get started."
Chen Hai said calmly
"I will fight you in the way I do best."
Riveria nodded, her expression serious and focused.
As the vice-captain of the Loki Familia and one of Orario's strongest mages, she knew all too well what kind of test she was about to face.
The training opponent is the dungeon lord, the master of the secret realm who has existed for thousands of years and can even be punished by gods—Chen Hai.
And so the first round began.
Saeko Busujima, who had retreated to the side, saw Rivera launch the first attack.
She raised her staff, 'Great Elf,' and began to chant.
An arrow of frost shot from her hand, heading straight for Chen Hai.
This is one of her basic skills, the most basic attack magic.
However, Chen Hai did not dodge; he simply raised his right hand slightly.
