Rina bow to her mistress, taking her lessons to heart. Yes, mistress show her how to do it, but Rina already put a goal before herself to get that skill in half of the month. She was determined to do whatever is necessary to gain more power, even if it follows by humiliating orders. "Alright mistress, then please show me how to apply magic to weapon."
Should have seen this one coming... Icena barely resisted the urge to roll her eyes. “Well, I am not a very good judge of character, but the Shokan – Risha, if I am not mistaken – seemed professional and used to her job, so I guess this is not the first time she's had to act as a bodyguard for her mistress. Speaking of... Risha's mistress is certainly pretty, but I am not yet sure what to think of her after seeing her just once...” She finished, hoping that her mistress was satisfied – or at least not displeased. Somehow answering these questions was proving more difficult than the usual combat training.
Spoiler Valerian Counter, Kick Valerian counter's the punch and aims a kick for the head. Hoping the double punch from earlier will make his opponent think that he's punch happy.
"Good." Izana walked up to Rina and started explaining the basics of magic and the application of fire magic. AFter a couple of hours of trials, tests and practice, it seemed that Rina grasped the basics of magic - still not enough to use it, but with practice she could master the skill enough to use it in combat as she was demonstrated. After that, Izana dismissed Rina.
Crystal hummed and nodded her head, but she seemed to be absent minded. Her thoughts were somewhere else. She continued drinking and looking at the stars, before putting down the glass. "Let's go." She declared as she dropped a couple of coins on the table.
Rina bow head before mistress and quickly run to her chamber, with hands on her private parts to get dressed after all this humilation.
Spoiler: combat Valerian Health 5 Stamina 9 Bandit Health 1 Stamina 7 Actions punch,? As the man swayed, he ducked under Valerian's kick and crashed his punch against Vampire's chin, following with another punch.
As Rina made her way to her chamber she was stopped by three people - Jira a fellow apprentice and her two hanger ons. "Well, well, Rina. I knew that you were into some kinky staff, but implementing them so boldly~" She spoke in mocking tone. Spoiler: Jira
Rina didn't have mood for shit-talking with Jira, not when she naked and embrassed. She can take punishment from the mistress, but not mocking from her equal. "Then allow me to show you the kink Jira." She said and take battle stand ready to fight. "Or maybe you are only bold with your underdogs?"
"Oh~ a little pig wants to fight~" She chirped to laugh of her two hangeons. "Are you sure you want that?" She asked, making Rina pause. It was true after all, Jira was a better fighter of the two. And she had aid.
Rina knew that wasn't the wisest of her moves, not before she perfect her skills with magic daggers. But to back down mean losing more face. "Come to training yard in the one hour. I don't want to destroy any art around us." She said wanted to buy some time to get dressed and choosing place where Jira would fight her alone.
Icena nodded and followed behind her mistress without question. The older woman's mind was clearly elsewhere, likely due to something she had learned during the night. The orphan let her think and focused on making sure the two were not caught by surprise in case of trouble.
Jira smirked as she crossed arms under her bust. "Why don't we go now~" She smiled. "It's not like you are doing anything important~" The two cronies started moving around Rina.
As the two walked through - now much quieter city, Icena realized that they were being followed. As she turned her head slightly, she noticed at least two clocked individuals, slowly catching up to them.
Rina didn't like where it was going. "Well, of course we could, but I thought you would need to put some make up on yourself. This one from the morning fade away." She said decided if Jira didn't let her go now, she will fight her away out, despite her poor state.
“We are being followed, Mistress. At least two people, possibly more that I have not noticed yet,” Icena spoke as she kept walking. Her voice was just high enough for Crystal to hear her, but low enough to make sure no one else would hear her words.
"Or you can just strip the rest that you are wearing~" Jira mocked her. Yet for all the bluster, she didn't seem that eager to start the fight...
Crystal hummed. "Well then, I hope you are ready for combat~" Her mistress chuckled as she turned and walked into one of dark alleys.
Rina show her closed fist before her nose. "You can strip yourself if you want to. But I wouldn't be surprised if your tits are fake, like everything about you." She said with steel in voice, despite her nakedness. "Now, I'm going to my chamber." She said, wary of two underdogs behind her.
“Always, mistress.” Icena followed her mistress into the dark alley while mentally preparing for the coming battle. In a narrow place like this I should be able to fight them one at a time.
