After seeing Benladann ’s parents ’ status, we decided to do some training with them. The Ice Elf and the Rabbit-kin leaders, Tisha and Pekora, wanted to join us in the training and exercise too, as they had met with the two new members of our group and were eager to sharpen their strength, as they said they were very rusty.

The first fight was between physical fighters, Tisha and Laddann decided to wrestle it out as they seemed to be in a similar power level. Well, Tisha had bigger stats, but she was weakened and rusty, so they were kind of similar now.

”Go easy on me! ” said Laddann while nodding respectfully, he was around one meter taller than Tisha, but Tisha smiled confidently before the giant ’s height.

”Don ’t count me on that! ” laughed Tisha. Despite having lost an arm, she was good with the sword with just the arm she had. However, I had taken the time to create her a new prosthetic arm made of ice magic and other materials which I had mined back then, the thing was infused with an ant-sized split of my soul, enough to make it capable of moving by Tisha ’s command when I connected it to her soul. She got used to it pretty quickly.

I was surprised that Laddann started with a charge right away while raising his new Axe, which I gifted to him as he clashed against Tisha ’s blade, which I had also gifted to her the other day when I distributed new equipment.

CLAAASH!

Laddann ’s enormous axe clashed against Tisha ’s blade, as Laddann was clearly abusing his height to gain an easy advantage against Tisha.

Tisha, however, smiled like a battle-drive maniac, as she leaped back, let the axe of Laddann hit the ground, and then jumped over his arm, rushed through it and reached his shoulder, and hit him with everything she had with a powerful Blade Technique named Aura Blade, which was a high-level technique that used a large amount of Mana to generate a slashing attack of pure energy.

SLAAAASH!

”Ohhh?! ”

Laddann was surprised, as he was thrown away right away, however, his armor and the strengthened skin I had given to him was enough for him to only result in scratches.

”W-Wasn ’t she a bit too rash there? ” sighed Benladann.

”Don ’t worry, the armor and the reinforced skin of your father should be enough. Look, his skin is barely scratched, ” I said.

”Oooh… It ’s true, ” said Benladann.

”And look how your father ’s enjoying it. It seems that he ’s an innate warrior, ” I said.

”Fufu, Laddann was a good guard on his prime, and he was still a very decent hunter. He took down Ice Bears with his group, so he knew how to fight powerful monsters. For our marriage he gifted me three Ice Bears, I accepted happily afterward, ” said Benlah.

It seems that within the tribe, to marry, the husband gifts the wife with an offering, the bigger and better it is, the more chances they have of being accepted. I guess this offering showcases how strong the man is if he ’s capable of taking down ice bears.

Benlah did say there were another two guys that also wanted her hand, although she had developed her relationship better with Laddann, and loved him, so she chose him.
