After warming up lightly, he was practicing the posture and principles of the Fangs of Insanity that he'd learned the day before. It was at that time that the training ground's door opened and Burren entered.

"I thought I would be the first one to arrive..."

Burren frowned and started warming up. Since it was time for individual training, very few people arrived as time passed.

After polishing the posture of the Fangs of Insanity, Raon looked at Burren. Judging from how he was training a swordsmanship he had never seen before, he must've learned a new technique as well.

After watching him training for a while, he resumed training the Fangs of Insanity. After around two hours passed, the door to the training ground burst open and Rimmer walked in with his hands held together behind his back.

"You guys are still the same."

The way he swaggered while yawning looked exactly like a jobless layabout. However, his left eye was slightly dark, as if bruised.

Was he beaten up in the gambling house?

"I'm going to sleep, so if anything happens..."

As he walked towards the head instructor's room, Raon blocked his way.

"Can you please watch me spar?"

"Spar? With who?"

Rimmer turned his head to look for the opponent. However, no one was raising their hand.

"I'm going to spar with Burren."

"Huh? Me?"

Burren's eyes widened, as a full moon, in surprise.

"Out of nowhere?"

"You don't want to?"

"Y-yes! I do!"

Burren quickly nodded his head.

"I'll do it! I mean, let me do it!"

'I can't miss this opportunity.'

Burren hadn't fought against Raon since he was beaten up during the temporary trainee exam. He knew that Raon was strong, but he still wanted to try fighting him.

"Hmm, it's annoying."

Rimmer frowned, scratching his cheek.

"Instructor."

"Phew, alright. Get yourselves ready."

"Yes!"

Burren nodded and ran towards the center of the training ground.

"Aren't you going?"

"Instructor, if ever it looks like I'm going to hurt Burren, please stop me."

"Stop you?"

"Yes."

That was the reason he didn't ask Burren for a duel until Rimmer had arrived.

The Intuition Sword was difficult to control. He could easily inflict a serious injury on Burren with a single mistake.

"Haa, it's really annoying..."

"Please."

Raon bowed and went to the temporary arena. Despite what he said, Rimmer was going to stop him for sure.

Raon wielded a dull training sword and faced Burren. Every trainee that had been training stood back to watch them.

"Phew, let's start, haaa, the spar."
