The Extra's Harem In Dead End Game

"I'm embarrassed."

I scratched the back of my head, trying to recuperate.

"Hmm... Ah, as long as you know. Work hard."

"Yes, I will do my best."

The atmosphere settled again, and my gaze became serious.

Hiresia seemed to like that attitude and smiled faintly.

"The beginning is just a warm-up."

Swoosh.

Hiresia began throwing the log pieces again.

Just as she said, the pieces flew from the front, the easiest position to cut.

Crack!

Of course, I split it easily.

"How long is the delay?"

"10 seconds."

Although the technique is simple, it has a skill delay time because it's a powerful strike.

It's a skill that can't be used consecutively.

"Ugh, how tedious?"

"It shouldn't be tedious for you. It's just 10 seconds, not a minute or 30 seconds..."

"I'm putting up with it because it's you."

I was taken aback by her words that could once again lead to a strange atmosphere, but fortunately, she seemed to have said it without much thought. "Let's keep going."

Hiresia's hand moved again.

Whoosh.

Thud!

Whoosh.

Crash.

Woosh!

Crunch!

She continuously threw the log pieces, neatly timed with the delay.

What was amazing was that none of the throws were to the same position.

She slightly varied the position to make the logs easier to cut.

Her control was incredible.

It seemed her sense of hand was as exceptional as her archery skills.

Anyway, thanks to that, the training became much easier.

"Now that we're warmed up, let's move on to the next."

Swish.

The position of the log piece changed.

If earlier it was at a distance that made it too easy to cut through the center of the blade, this time it was at a distance that touched the outside and the inside of the blade.

Throwing randomly to the outside and inside made it a bit tricky.

Still,

Crunch!

It was a timing that allowed enough room to hit.

Crunch! Thud! Crack! Pop!

I destroyed the log pieces coming at me relentlessly.

Sweat had started to trickle down my forehead.

My body was also drenched in sweat.

It was a technique that definitely used up physical strength.

"Huff."

I caught my breath for a moment during the delay time.

"Good, now let's make it more difficult."

Hiresia nodded as if to say well done and changed the trajectory of the log pieces again.

The position was at a precarious sword strike distance that I failed at initially.

I wouldn't fail once or twice.

Crunch!

My sword split the log piece in half as if to show off.

Crunch! Crack! Thud! Crunch! Crack! Thud!

Ten times in a row like that.

I didn't fail even once.

"It's certainly better than the beginning. But the enemy doesn't just come from the front, right?"

Whoosh.

Hiresia suddenly threw a log piece to my left.

Flick!

I reacted immediately and swung my sword, but I clearly didn't cut it completely.

It was only half cut.

"Not enough. But you can do it."

A reality check and encouragement.

A good senior indeed.

It was a good choice to ask for her help.

Maybe I'll get more results than I thought.

I said with a smile,

"Of course. Let's continue."

And so I repeated the training of cutting the log pieces coming quickly from the left and right until it was perfected.

Not only that, but I even practiced cutting the log pieces coming from behind with my back turned.

This was a training I had never tried even in gameplay.

Turning around and cutting with precision was harder than I could have imagined.

There were countless misses.

I was completely exhausted too.

But in the end, the hard work paid off.

Crack! Crunch! Crack!

Three consecutive successes.

Then Hiresia finally stopped her hand.

"It seems you've got it now. Let's move on to the next."

"Pant... pant... There's more? Heave... Just a moment, please. I'm really about to pass out.

Heave...

"Ah, now that you mention it, you do look like it. But we can't stop here, can we? I'll save you some energy."

Hiresia approached me, completely exhausted, and placed her hand on my chest.

Soon, a familiar energy entered me.

[Hiresia has cast 'Vitality Infusion' with all her might on you.]

[Your body starts to overflow with vitality.]

A sudden surge of energy flowed throughout my body.

It felt like getting a new body.

Now I felt alive.

"Huff... Thank you, senior."

"Hmph, you know now. Let's continue."

"But what now...?"

I was curious.

We had finished the back as well, but there was still more training to do?

"Do you think the opponent will always come with honest movements?"

"That's not it."

"So try training with irregular trajectories too. This is really the last one."

"Hmm, I see."

I understood for sure.

Real opponents are not log pieces coming honestly flying.

Of course, there will be a fair number of enemies that are worse or similar to those honest movements, but one must always keep in mind that there are also enemies with movements far surpassing them.

So, it means to train for unusual situations as well.

I didn't think she would take care of such details.

I didn't think she would help me this seriously.

Stay with m _v _l _e _mp _y _r.

Does that mean we've become closer?

"Let's finish before it gets dark."

"Yes, let's start."

Whoosh.

The training started again.

And this training was at least twice as hard as all the previous training combined.

This was because log pieces with large changes in angle came flying randomly from all directions.

"Damn it."

It was a series of misses.

Even if it hit, it only grazed off the blade.

"Your reaction is slow. You need to react faster."

Hiresia advised.

"How do I do that?"

"You think too much. Reduce your thoughts and use your eyes properly. You must be able to read the movement the moment it leaves my hand."

"I see."

Fast judgment.

Quick response.

That's exactly what she was emphasizing with her advice.

I knew the importance of it.

But I was lacking awareness.

I need to keep that awareness in my mind and try to grow it through training.

From now on.

"You can do it. Focus."

Hiresia encouraged me.

Perhaps those obvious words were a source of strength for me.

Because I felt sincerity.

I clenched my teeth and raised my concentration to the maximum.

And the training began again.

"Well done. You've worked really hard."

I could see Hiresia looking at me with an approving look and a faint smile.

"Huff..... Huff.."

I sat down on the floor as if collapsing, breathing heavily.

It was really hard enough to lose my mind.

If it hadn't been for Hiresia's vitality infusion and sincere encouragement, I would have collapsed already.

But still.

I finally managed to respond perfectly to any trajectory or direction.

My body was terribly tired, but the sense of accomplishment made me feel good.

I think I've become stronger.

I wonder what the results will be.

Unable to contain my curiosity, I opened the skill window.

- The will of an executioner trying to kill a convict with a single blow has evolved further through Hiresia's training.

- There is no blind spot in this strike.

- Proficiency 20.1%

What, what is this?!
