章 68: Skills
Nearly a year had passed with the usual training.
Mitsuna was sleeping on her bed.
Within the past year, not much had happened.
Mitsuna had dinner mostly in her room, she enjoyed a few tea parties with her brother and had a few chats with her father all while training with her mother every single day.
The time seemed to fly by as it just felt like yesterday when she got transported here. Although she knew that wasn't the case.
The Dragon and Phoenix races were very long-lived so a few years might just seem like a little while ago.
Mitsuna during this one year opened up to her family more and more and could even widely smile within their presence, not just limited to maids now. She still mostly spoke with the letters M and H for some reason though.
She had still yet to level up once but her status was growing little by little.
She had also learned a few things about this world. Its name was Endeon but after 'something' that happened a few years ago the planet had no name and was 'pretty new' as her father called it.
The thing that happened is called many things by many races and many people. The Reset, Fusion, New Game +, The Error, New Dawn but the most popular among the masses was 'Update'.
When asked to go into further detail, everyone Mitsuna asked declined.
The last and probably the most important thing that happened within the year was that... Mitsuna had... grown.
Finally, she was nearing the one-meter and 10-centimetre mark.
Still as flat as ever both behind and in front but she got taller and her arms and legs got slightly longer. This means it's easier to do combat now!
Besides that, she also learned a little more magic but she was still a much better fighter when it came to physical combat.
Mitsuna turned around in her bed.
'I'm tired...'
Her door was then opened just like always.
"Mitsuna~! Training!"
"I'm up."
"Great. Let's go!"
Going outside like always, Mitsuna saw a strange glint in her mother's eyes.
"Is today something special mother?"
"Yep! Today is the day of our final spar!"
"Final spar?"
"Yes. Final spar."
"Can I ask why?"
"Oh don't worry, I'm not disowning you or anything. Let's just get to it. If you land a single hit on me I'll agree to any request you have~!"
"Any request?"
"As long as it's not lewd."
"Mother, I'm barely 1."
"Yes."
Without commenting any further, Mitsuna got into position.
Waiting for her mother to move first, Mitsuna saw a blur and Aryamis was gone.
Turning around out of instinct, Mitsuna forgoed blocking and stabbed directly.
Scratching her mother's shoulder she was prepared to take the attack head-on.
Getting a slap instead, Mitsuna looked up towards her mother who had an angry expression.
"You dumb little Mitsuna! If this were a real fight you would be dead right now! I can't believe you would do something like this. I thought I raised you to be smarter."
"Do I still get my request? I landed a hit before you."
"...*Sigh* Fine. What is it that you would do something stupid for?"
"I want a day out."
"That's it? Not stay here even after the age of 14? Not to get your own flying horse or carriage?"
"Nope."
"Well okay. I'll deal with that. Now go inside and clear your head with a shower."
"Mhm."
"And Mitsuna."
"Yes, mother?"
"Never risk it like that again."
"Yes..."
Walking to her room and laying down, Mitsuna wondered.
'But I knew that this was a spar and spars are usually safe so what's the problem? Is it that she thinks that I'll do something similar in a real fight? That's stupid though.'
Opening her status, Mitsuna looked through it to get her mind off things.

The glitched areas had still yet to clear up and it was strangely unsettling for Mitsuna to look at them.
She had gained 3 new skills within the last year.

Looking over her stats, Mitsuna heard a knock on the door before she could think of any comment to make.
Standing up and opening the door, she could see her brother.
"Morning?"
"Father wants to speak with you."
"Okay, bye then."
Seeing her brother being rolled away by a maid, Mitsuna went on her way.
Passing the usual large window, Mitsuna looked the other way for once.
'When did this huge door get here?'
Ignoring the random 'new' door, she continued on to meet her father.
Reaching his office, she knocked.
"Enter."
Opening the door, Mitsuna said.
"Morning father."
"Good morning."
Sitting on the sofa, Mitsuna took a sweet and waited.
"Let's get straight to business then. After your little promise with your mother is done, you will be sent to train under an acquaintance of mine."
"Hmm."
"We made an oath that when one of us has a capable child, they will be sent to the other in order to train and gain experience."
"Hm."
"You don't have to worry. We can still send letters. Right?"
"Mhm."
'Oh thank god. I thought she would never speak with me again after that strict voice I just pulled.'
"Is that okay then?"
Swallowing her sweet, Mitsuna took a breath in.
Her father could not help but gulp.
"But the request I made of mother, you will be participating, yes?"
"Participating? I do not know. What is the request you made?"
'Of course, I'll be there! I'm sure Jameson will be ecstatic when he hears that his sister is planning on some interaction!'
"A day out."
"A day out?"
'A day out? How am I supposed to participate on her very own 'day out'?'
"With the family."
Hearing this, Midithyr almost felt a tear drop.
'My daughter. She has never spoken about our family. She seems so closed off all the time although that has lessened. Maybe she just doesn't know how to communicate well? Aww, that is too sweet!'
"Of course I will participate!"
Jameson who was eavesdropping on the other side of the door with his mother and two maids also heard this.
'I have to be invited too right?!!'
'I have to be invited too right!?'
Both mother and son thought at the same time.
Finally. Mitsuna had finally cracked the shell and fully embraced her new family. The one she didn't have in her last life, or the one before that.
