Elina's Point of View

This event happened before Kouran left the group to meet with Okami and Ryoshi.

"You need to hit harder than that!" Kouran, the dark elf who managed our village, shouted at me.

Upon hearing her instructions, I jabbed my fist towards the training dummy and finished it by slicing its insides. When my blade came into contact with the target practice, the scarecrow shattered into a million hays. It even turned into its original form, thanks to the empowered spell from Kouran.

"Grandmother La Finta would not let me fight like this!" I exclaimed, while crushing the remaining scarecrows in the training field. "It would be nice if I could have my break right now!"
