Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System-Novel
Chapter 48 The Pass Of Time (Part 3) Aura & Erin DaysOnce Daimon had the shackles on, he immediately noticed that his body felt heavier, it was harder to move but it was still manageable, Aura nodded seeing him following her instructions, she took two training wooden swords from the wall of the room and handed one to Daimon before she positioned next to him.
"There are three basic poses for a swordsman, preparation, attack and block, we will start with pose and attack", she said.
Aura placed her left foot a few steps ahead of her right, and pointed the wooden sword forward holding the handle with both hands.
"This is the basic preparation pose for swordsman, you must support all the weight of your body on your left foot, lean your body slightly forward and make sure that your sword points to the sternum or throat of your enemy", Aura dashed forward and swung the sword creating a slight amount of wind due to the movement.
"That is the basic attacking movement, we will practice this until your body gets used to it, a good swordsman doesn't need to think, your muscular memory should help you, besides if you master it there will be no need for you to block your opponent's attack, because he will be dead".
Aura smiled, her fighting style was quite an aggressive one, whenever she swung her sword, her enemy was bound to bleed, specially now that her attacks won't be stopped by any defense due to the supreme radiance passive skill.
The training sounded easy but if you add the fact that his body was getting heavier with every minute that passed things changed, after repeating the same movement almost 200 times he calculated that his weight was about 10 times his original one.
Every time Aura saw that Daimon's rhythm slowed down, she scolded him.
"Don't fall behind, your enemy won't let any mistake slip away!".
Daimon was completely drenched in sweat, but little by little his body was adapting to the stress that the weight augmentation made it go through, once Aura considered he has progressed enough for the first session she told him to stop.
"You can stop now, sit down and rest for a moment".
Not even a couple seconds passed after she spoke and Daimon let his body fell backwards.
"Ha…ha…ha", Daimon looked at the roof of the training room while he gasped for air which made Aura nod.
"That's good, your body is starting to pump more oxygen through your veins to help you adapt, before you enter the academy, I promise you would be able to properly wield Narasha ♥".
Daimon saw her amused expression and he didn't know whether laugh or cry, "I guess cute girls are quite vindictive too", he said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAura smiled when she heard him call her cute, she looked at Daimon's current tired expression and she felt a bit guilty, "maybe I… exaggerated a bit, back when I trained using the shackles of despair for the first time, I was only able to do 150 repetitions after all", she thought.
She sat down next to him and gently started massaging his arms and legs to relieve his body a bit, her eyes widened when she felt the changes currently happening in Daimon's muscles.
She couldn't help to gently press her fingers on specific parts of his arms and legs.
"Woah, your muscle fibers are incredibly resistant, like steel wires, perhaps you have a really high talent in the knight's path!!!".
Daimon smiled, she seemed to be more excited than him about what she discovered, he changed his position to a cross legged one before saying.
"I think, a certain someone owes me a reward, don't you agree?", he said.
Aura remembered the kiss they shared before in the bathroom and she blushed.
"A-are you sure that is what you want?".
Daimon nodded and she mentally sighed, "I will be spending more time with him from now and onwards so a kiss from time to time won't hurt I guess", she thought.
Aura closed her eyes and let Daimon kiss her, an invitation he was happy to accept, for some reason he enjoyed quite a lot teasing her, maybe because she was shy about it.
"Mmm ♥", while Daimon was pressing his lips against hers, he saw from the corner of his eyes, how her tail waggled a couple of times which he found really cute.
Evangeline who was watching everything, didn't miss the chance to give her opinion.
"I wonder who will you choose to be your first "night partner" in the future, my money is in either your mother, the fox woman or your cute wolf girl, what do you think Narasha?".
Without including Daimon, Evangeline could talk with Narasha and they easily started becoming friendly with each other since they had something in common, neither one of them had a physical form.
Speaking of Narasha, she has been feeling a bit jealous of the other girls since she couldn't spend time with Daimon like them, but remembering some things that Evangeline told her regarding that, she smiled before answering.
"I think that Aisha has the bigger chance but… who knows maybe Aura or Erin can take the lead later".
Daimon felt a bit weird listening to those two suddenly being all friendly, but it he would be lying if he said that the subject, they were talking about hasn't crossed his mind at least once before.
"I think that it's better for things to naturally happen, I guess I will have to speak with them about this at some point".
Without him noticing he has been kissing Aura for quite a bit of time, it wasn't his fault though, the soft comforting feeling of her lips was something any man could get used to enjoy on a regular basis.
Daimon stopped the kiss, he got temporarily lost in her dazed blushed expression, "she freaking adorable I swear", he thought.
It took a moment to Aura to regain her composure and once she noticed she let him kiss her for such a long period of time she wanted to dig a hole to hide.
"I can't believe it, since when I'm as shameless as Erin… but it felt quite good ♥".
That day ended with Daimon feeling his body was going to break due to the hellish training, but his heart was soothed by Aura's gentle embrace and her soft tail wrapping around him to keep him as close to her as possible.
The next day started like any other one with a cold weather, he woke up in Aura's warm embrace, compared to yesterday his body felt so comfortable after a good night of rest that it took him almost 15 minutes to finally decide to separate from her and get up to go take his breakfast.
Since he was quite tired due to the training, he woke up later than what normally does, so Aura and him were the only ones remaining in the room, before he left, he made sure to cover Aura with the blanket since she usually keeps sleeping for one or two more hours than the rest.
When Daimon arrived at the dining room, he was marveled at the sight of all the girls happily taking their breakfast together, of course they noticed that he finally woke up and Aisha was the first one to greet him.
"Good morning darling ♥, do you feel better now? yesterday you looked quite tired".
Daimon nodded.
"Good morning mom, yes I feel quite rested".
Once Daimon finished his breakfast Erin dragged him along, they left the mansion and she used the spell dark curtain to make them invisible to others.
"Unlike Liz or Elaine, I normally don't have any duties to attend beside listening to some of the elder's complains… whenever I feel like doing something, but since that is also boring, I decided that today we will have a date ♥", she said.
Daimon felt a bit weird, "she could still teach me darkness element magic, I have the affinity after all, although I will be focusing more on lightning", he thought, but still what kind of man will he be if he complained about spending the day just hanging around with a beauty like Erin, so he followed the act.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmErin smiled.
"The first stop will be the clan training grounds; I have prepared a little surprise for you".
Daimon had a bad premonition but he didn't say anything, he held to Erin's body and they flew for a couple of minutes until they reached something that looked like a sports complex from earth.
It was a big building with a lot of different facilities, pools, archery ranges, etc. they even had their own hot spring, exclusively for those who trained there, originally Daimon thought she planned to make him try all the facilities but that theory was discarded when he saw that she didn't dispel the dark curtain and he started sweating a bit when he noticed that… there were only women here.
Erin saw his confused expression and she laughed.
"I saw all the things you did during the week, learning magic theory with Aisha, leading and management with Elaine, magic blacksmithing with Liz and that hellish training Aura made you go through so I prepared something special to make you relax and forget about all those things".
She pointed at the entrance of the hot springs.
"An all you can see buffet of naked girls ♥".
Daimon almost tripped when he heard that she was planning to keep using dark curtain for him to spy on the girls of the Revy clan that were enjoying the hot spring.
Evangeline almost lost it.
"Pffft, she understands you quite good hahaha".
He didn't bother to argue with Evangeline, instead he replied to Erin.
"Auntie… I appreciate the offer but I don't think it's a good idea", he said.
Erin shook her head.
"Don't worry I previously discussed it with the others, besides unlike what you did with Aura the last time, you will only see but not touch so there is no problem ♥".
Daimon had serious doubts about her logic but she finally convinced him by saying that they will also take a bath so while he might "accidentally" see some other girls, the main purpose will be to enjoy the hot spring.
"This is only the first stop… what in the world will she do for the others!!!", he thought.
