Chapitre 35: Fight me
After they confirmed their training schedules, Alex and Koneko used a magic circle to arrive at the place he wanted. It was an underground training space like they use later in the series. There were several different training machines sitting around, and a living area divided off from the training area. Alex looked around, and started making a magic formation. Koneko was curious, and asked,
"Is this for the gravity you were talking about before?" Alex nodded and explained.
"I usually only use it on myself, but with the equipment and another person to train with, I'm going to expand it to the whole room. I'm going to make it where the whole room is under ten times the normal gravity, with what I already have on myself, I'll be training under one hundred times normal gravity. You and the equipment will be ten times heavier however. We'll focus on familiarizing ourselves with the increase and area today, then tomorrow we'll start the actual training." Alex didn't notice his verbal slip about Koneko being heavy, but she didn't let it bother her as she understood his intentions. While setting up the gravity increase, Alex also looked at his and Rias's status's for the first time in awhile.

The only issue he saw was that Rias's level didn't go as high as he hoped from her recent battles, but he figured that was because she mainly fought small fries and needed better opponents before her level goes up as fast as his. Alex on the other hand chose the martial artist job because he figured it would benefit him learning ki sensing and senjutsu the most. He was quite pleased to find that not only was Katerea enough for a job change, but he also went up to level 55 for beating her. She wasn't the descendant of a Maou for nothing.
One thing Alex was hoping for, was that similar to the death Mage series he and Rias would also gain job levels from those serving them. However there hadn't been enough hard battles to confirm if this was the case. He hoped with the rating games he would be able to confirm it.
As he finished with the gravity increase, Koneko noticed right away the difference in her body when she was forced to her knees. This however made her more defiant, when she struggled to adjust without using her powers. This was the case even more when she saw Alex walking while only slightly bothered by the increase. It was noticeable that he was affected, but nowhere near as much as her. Remembering that he was under ten times the amount she was, her determination went even higher. Alex looked at her and said,
"Remember today is to adjust, tomorrow is when we start training." And he just relaxed and examined the rest of the area while she struggled to adapt.
The next day Alex led Koneko in several morning warm ups, then got into position. She had seemed to adjust relatively well with the change, even though she was definitely still affected by it. Her movements were still slow and she struggled to do some exercises, but Alex knew that as she worked the better she'll adapt.
"Alright, now that we're done warming up, don't hold back and fight me." Koneko was about to slowly move into position, when she noticed that Alex was putting a blindfold on. She got angry and demanded,
"Are you looking down on me?!" Alex couldn't see her, but still shook his head and explained,
"I'm training, if I have to close my eyes in a future fight then I'll be beaten. This is as much for my training as yours, and besides think of it as a handicap until you adjust better the gravity." Koneko could only accept his answer, and started forward to try and get an advantage. Her movements were slow, but she still got up to him and punched.
Because she was moving slowly Alex was able to detect Koneko's movements, and dodged them. She then set up another attack, which connected but didn't do anything due to the difference in strength. This continued, and over time Koneko was starting to adapt, until Alex suddenly kicked at her and it connected with her stomach. Koneko flew back and almost started puking from the kick. When she managed to recover, she looked at Alex and saw him glaring at her after he removed the blindfold.
"I thought I told you not to hold back." Was all he said. Koneko was confused, she was trying her best. But then she realized what he meant, and shook her head.
"I won't use that power. I'm not my sister." Alex continued glaring at her, and said,
"How do you intend to get stronger if you refuse that part of you?" Koneko then glared at him as well and replied,
"You don't understand, my power might kill everyone I care about, I don't need that kind of power!" Alex continued glaring at Koneko as he recalled her story. Her sister was a reincarnated devil that awakened her inner power and became strong before going crazy and killing her master. That was the story that they came up with and that Koneko believed, however the real thing was different all together. Her sister Kuroka had learned that her master was going to force Koneko to become his servant as well due to his lust for her power, and body. As a result she killed him and fled, but was unable to bring Koneko with her. Alex couldn't tell her this right now though, so he tried something else. He summoned his gauntlet, and showed it to her.
"This is the dragon sleeping inside of me. In its history almost all of its previous owners became drunk on their strength and lost control in pursuit of power. You have one instance that you might not completely know about, and I have a whole history, 'I don't understand'?" When Koneko heard his words she looked away in shame.
Alex possessed an item that was one of the most dangerous in existence, he would understand what she thought more than anyone, she regretted her previous words. She also caught something else he said, he mentioned that she might not completely know about the matter with her sister, did that mean that she didn't lose control due to her power? When this thought entered her head she wondered if she was actually crippling herself for a misunderstanding. She sat there in contemplation for several minutes before standing again. Her cat ears and tail suddenly popped out and she faced him again.
"That's more like it. " Alex said as he felt some power coming from her. Before they started again however, she asked,
"If I lose control, will you help me?" Alex was surprised that she still believed she would lose control, but decided her thoughts wouldn't be so easy to change his fast.
"Don't worry, I'll beat some sense into as many times as I have to before you finally get it." Koneko smiled for the first time, but immediately got serious again and charged him. In this manner they practiced for the next few weeks, Koneko never lost control once, further cementing the idea that she never truly understood what happened then.
