It's been a few hours since Hana and I spoke to the Local Lord, it seems that Hana has been using her Primordial skill to get closer to Fumiko, her skill can manipulate the mind of the person talking to her to make them more compliant with her and what she says.
"How is everything going you 2?"- I entered the room where Fumiko and Hana are. They looked at me for a little bit.
Fumiko came up to me dressed in a new dress than the one she wore before.
"Isn't this cute, Hana picked it up for me Hikaru. Do you like it?"- She slowly spun around a part of her dressed in her hands.
"Yeah, it looks cute on you Fumiko"- I try to compliment her as much as possible to get in good graces with all of them.
!Or you can admit you are a Lolicon and don't deny it every time I bring it up. Fave it, you are into young-looking girls that are short!
I am mentally slapping myself at Sia's comments on me and my taste in girls.
I can hear Hana laughing on the other side of the telepathic link.
"Anyway. I made a deal with your father, we need to get going tomorrow, until then we can stay a little more if you wish for us to stay that is"- Trying to make Fumiko a little more desperate and dependent o us wouldn't hurt that much, we need her on our side.
"No, don't go just yet. I want you 2 to stay here more. I want you 2 to teach me how to fight. I want to fight the same way Hikaru fights!"- She looked at me excited
"Ok, I can't say no to you, can I?"- I replied while patting her on the head, man This feels soo good
"I am so happy. From now on I will call you Teacher Hikaru. How does that sound?"- Fumiko had a smug look on her face
"That will be great"- I can't believe I am being called a teacher and I have a student.
"You want to train Fumiko in combat? I happen to be here to hear it"- The lord is at the door and coughed a lot before starting to speak
"Yes, she asked to be trained so why shouldn't we accept her wish? Plus you will have us train her, you can come and watch us. But first, does your daughter have any weapon preference?"- I looked once at Fumiko and once at her father
"As I know she is good with using smaller Katana swords, I don't know what they are called"- I don't know either but I know how one looks.
"I got it. I have the perfect weapon for this"- I pulled my ice sword out of my inventory and made the blade a little shorter for Fumiko.
"It's that an Ice Sword? It looks very sturdy. Did you make it?"- The lord walked and inspected the sword and took it from Fumiko's hands and then gave it back to her
"Yes, I have Ice Mastery skill, it only needs my mana to function, it works with other people's mana as well"- Or so I hope
"Sia?"
!You are correct. Other people can also channel their mana into this sword and it will be able to do ice attacks and normal slashes!
"That sounds like an interesting weapon that you have there kid. Well, Fumiko needs some training so I will let her train with the 2 of you."- We got Fumiko out of the mansion and to the training grounds of the mansion. These training grounds have a lot more stuff than those in Welcia Academy.
"Ok, Fumiko follow my movements closely. Grip your sword with your main hand, I will show you first"- I gripped the ice sword that I transformed into a Katana with my left hand and then slashed one of the logs in half.
"That looks so good Hikaru. I want to try it as well"- Fumiko gripped the sword with her right hand and tried to slash at the log but she only made a small scratch on it.
"Well, you will need to try over and over again to be able to cut it. May I ask what level are you?"
"I am level 10. What levels are the 2 of you?"- She seems pretty weak for a level 10
!She is a human Hikaru, Humans have lower stats than monsters, the stats are decided by the class and her class isn't an attack class so Fumiko has a hard time doing any physical damage!
"Yeah, but what class is she?"- I know only of a few RPG classes but there seem to be a lot more in here
!She is of the pioneer class. This class specializes in potions, I think you know what you need to do right?!
"Hey, Fumiko, you are a pioneer, right? Why not make a few strength potions to boost your strength for a while and then try them? Maybe throw in a few speed potions in there"- Fumiko stopped hitting the log, until now she managed to make a big enough hole in it
"No, I would have said it from the start if I wanted to do that. But for me, that doesn't count as training. I want to raise my strength stat naturally"- Fumiko kept hitting the log with all of her power until she managed to slice it. It took hee about 35 strikes to cut it.
"Hikaru, you can go and rest, I will stay with Fumiko and then return, you have done enough for today"- Hana spoke aloud.
!Confirming what Hana said, Orcs need less sleep but demons need a lot more sleep than normal monsters!
"Why didn't you tell me earlier Sia?"
!You didn't need to know so I didn't tell you, but now it's crucial!
"Hikaru, before you leave I want to say. Thank you!"- Fumiko hugged me from behind my back.
I left to sleep for the next day. The next day we are going to the neighboring lord so that we can enact our plan to kill this lord and if the other will get in our way we will do the same
