"...please be serious."

I said. I couldn't believe this was the student of the sword saint.

Was it because I was strong? Or was it because he was too sloppy?

His movements, Slashes, and footwork all looked like an amateur was performing it.

Was it because of this imperfection that the sword saint took him in as a disciple?

I was having no problem dodging his swords.

"...yes."

His voice sounded out. Did he seem..scared?

'Is he scared of me?'

I had a peculiar thought. Well, Thinking about it.

Any bullied student would be if the first-ranked student wanted to fight them...

Especially when they've been bullied for quite a while.

'Hmm...I need to think of a way to solve this..'

But..How was I going to give him some confidence?

"..um can we stop now?"

Drifting me away from my thoughts was Alex's voice. Turning my head to look at him, I nodded and said.

"Yeah, let's do it when you're serious."
