CHAPTER 20

The people who were there accumulated, realizing that a rookie was fighting against Fujita.

Here they think I'm a man, they still don't notice me.....great.

We were both face to face with swords in hand.

There were two ways to grab the sword, either with two hands or with one hand, obviously each one has advantages, with two hands the most powerful cuts and with one hand, it gives you more mobility to dodge the attacks.

They taught me super basic things both ways, but I need a fight to know how to adapt.

Alright, Junior, since you want to see the level comparison, I'll be a little strict with you.

-Thank you Fujita-senpai.

One of the companions, stood in the middle and said.

begin.

Fujita tightly gripped the sword and surged forward for the first attack.

But what surprised him is that shouko was able to react and block it himself.

['He has good reflexes...'].

Fujita only increased his speed and began to attack left and right.

But shouko either blocked the attacks or tried to dodge.

Fujita could see that shouko's sword movements were too basic and her foot movements were super poor, from a distance you can see that she is an amateur, but...how can she block my attacks.

On the other hand, shouko was fully concentrated, did not leave his opponent's sight, while analyzing each movement of this and see how he does it.

It was difficult for him, since he has to analyze, block and dodge at the same time.

He had both hands on his sword to be able to neutralize the attacks well, it is another advantage of this, since it will help him to endure against an experienced one.

Cuts, from left to right, Fujita was spinning controlling his breathing and pushing himself so that his cuts are stronger, some reaching the point of brushing my clothes cutting him.

"Junior, you are only defending yourself, you see that you can't even counterattack."

Fujita's tone was serious to a lesser extent.

The public around, supported Fujita for obvious reasons, while others whispered sorry for shouko to see the state in which it is.

Fujita decided that this match took much longer than he thought so he decided to get serious.

Fujita with a movement of his legs pushed himself and made an attack towards my head to end this at once, the speed had increased considerably and shouko reflexively, seeing the movement of his hands, put his sword to block it.

The impact was brutal, since the shock sounded considerably, shouko's body once again felt the small pain that was bothering him while he made strength to continue blocking Fujita's attack and on the other hand he wanted to put more force trying to push more and more .

But unfortunately, Shouko is stronger by far.

Shouko takes a breath and turned serious.

From the thrust of the swords, he deflects his sword causing Fujita to advance but shouko dodging, takes his sword with one hand to increase his speed and spins, at the last moment of the spin he takes the sword with both hands for his next attack be with full power.

Fujita kept advancing with the sword, but he noticed shouko's movement, he quickly put himself in a blocking pose, but the impact of the blow was brutal.

Shouko had put all her strength into that attack, she forgot about the pain and decided to get serious now.

The impact was more powerful and caused Fujita to be dragged meters behind with the shock, which left everyone present speechless.

Fujita never thought that this attack would have a brutal force, he had never thought of receiving a blow like that, he felt tension in his arms when receiving that attack.

Shouko who looked at that, gave a tiny smile, took a pose, had her sword in one hand and stretched it to the right, she was able to learn some movements of attacks and feet to be able to put up a fight.

Now I understand that he doesn't have professional knowledge to be able to attack with two hands, so he was forced to use one hand, boosting his speed and movement.

Shouko quickly advanced and went towards Fujita.

He forgot the tension in his arms and began to move forward as well.

Fujita makes a diagonal cut, which shouko barely avoids, makes the movement of his feet that he saw done, pushes himself and cuts towards the head.

The two clash swords, one is experienced and the other is more physical.

Shouko decided to take it late, so she copied Fujita sempai's movements, giving the same attacks and Fujita realizing it, using all her strength to block, dodge and deflect.

Fujita was surprised, due to the strength and resistance that shouko was showing at this moment, he saw how quickly he can adapt to a fight, he knew how to analyze his movements well, he has good reflexes and that is something fundamental for kendo.

But unfortunately, shouko would lose, shouko will be able to copy his opponent's movements, but his body is not used to it so he makes an extra effort with each attack he makes, making him tire more and lose the fight.

And as it was done, the match ended, Fujita delivered a direct attack with precision to Shouko's hand causing him to lose control of his sword and fall away.

The match was over, with shouko losing.

The audience was silent, the fight had lasted 5 minutes, Fujita was sweating heavily and Shouko only had a rapid breath, with some small beads of sweat.

From sight you could see who had tired more.

[I need a cold shower, immediately...].

-Thank you very much Fujita-sempai, now with your permission I'll retire.

Fujita had already calmed down, but his breathing was still a little tired, he could only nod at shouko's words and let him go.

But something happened, since the two did not know, was that a slender purple figure was watching them not far away.

Fujita's eyes looked at Shouko's departure, and then heard that they spoke to him.

"Vice President Fujita".

Turning his head and looking around, he saw that the director of the kendo club, Saeko busujima, approached him at some point.

Chairwoman?.

"Who was the guy he was fighting you with just now?"

Do you mean Komi-san?

"It's Komi-san...."

Saeko remembered that name, that boy's swordsmanship just now made her feel a long-lost passion. It should be known that even Fujita, the strongest swordsman in the club besides himself, couldn't make her feel any passion.

Yes, Shouko komi, is a freshman who just joined the club yesterday.

"Shouko-komi...".

"I see, thank you, Vice President, then I'll leave you alone now, bye."

Goodbye, president.—Fujita bowed slightly.

Shouko has no idea that he has been touched by the beautiful president of the Kendo Club, if he knew he would be happy, since he would find someone to become stronger with.

Meanwhile with Shouko leaving school.

[This week was not supposed to be my rest, but this week I have spent more injured and sore...].

[Tomorrow I think I won't go to kendo...I'll skip one day].

That day shouko decided to take a bath with ice water to recover quickly.

The next day.

It had been another normal day than the other, this time I didn't go to the Kendo Club, if not, I decided to go to the GYM, since the pain disappeared completely with a tremendous cold bath that I got into at night.

I got to the entrance of the GYM and went into it.

Inside the GYM, there weren't many people like the first day I came, there were few and I didn't see the instructor either.

So it will go unnoticed, great.

The news of her record spread , although shouko did not know it , but it was taken as a joke , since in plain sight , it was impossible for a woman to break a world record in the bench press , doing 20 repetitions of this herself, the public thought that it was nothing more than a videoto make a beautiful girl popular, with dumbbells that have a fake weight.

Shouko entered the room and looked at a bar with weights already on it, apparently someone had done a deadlift.

By the amount that was seen it was 510 kilos, shouko if he had seen the famous deadlift, since with that they gave you the title of the strongest person.

Shouko had seen some videos on how to do the correct position, but it doesn't help if she doesn't do it by herself.

So he decided to stand aside and pick up another bar, he put on this one about 40 kilos and began to practice the correct pose, he doesn't want to die trying.

Obviously 40 kilos are insignificant for him, so he only based himself on the posture, after practicing and noticing each part of his body for a few minutes, he decided to try the real weight.

He looked around, and some were on the treadmill, others were doing bench presses, there were few of them so it wouldn't attract so much attention.

He decided before, to make circular movements in his legs and arms, he does not want to injure himself or anything like that.

So when the time came, he quickly got into position, placed both of his arms on the bar and with pressure pulled him up.

The weight was too much, very difficult for him, but he did it, it took him a long time, but he did it.

When he put it on the floor he took a deep breath, he had a few small drops of sweat, and his breathing was very agitated.

[I guess I should stop calculating my maximum strength and start doing reps of arm weights, to increase my strength and instead of doing these things].

Shouko without knowing, just broke the record for women in deadlift here and the record for deadlift men in her other world.

"Nice weight huh...."

Those words gave shouko goosebumps, she turned quickly and saw a woman, about 1.67 centimeters tall, waist-length black hair, wearing black shorts and a white sweatshirt.

But those things were normal, what was striking was that he kept his eyes closed and that gave off a very mysterious aura.

[God what a scare, he's just an ordinary person...].

Shouko calmed down and regained her composure.

-Oh yeah....

He left the woman's place and placed himself where the one-handed weights were.

[Mmm.....which one should I use....how about this 50 kilos one].

I picked up a 50 dumbbell and started working out.

[I don't feel anything now, but with more repetitions the tension will get stronger, I suppose].

I kept doing my reps and a voice to my left rang.

"I don't think that little weight is good for you dear."

I turn my head and realize it's the same woman.

She was lifting a weight on one arm while stretching to the left.

-Sorry?.

"Oh, I said I don't think light weight is good for you, since you'd be wasting time…"

-Eh... why do you suppose that...

"You just broke a world record as if nothing, I analyzed your body and the effort in the movement, I could tell that you were more layers and you didn't get too tired as you should.....and now you are instantly lifting weights as if nothing would have happened..."

"I also noticed that you hid and you didn't want anyone to see you, that's why you watched all sides before doing the deadlift...".

"You are young, I would say very young, you have a defined body but not excessively despite your height, which is not very common in this country either, you have good genetics, I do not notice marks on your hands or swelling, it is soft and impeccable, which It shows me that it is the first time that you gain weightdead...".

[...!].

Shouko looked alertly at this woman.

"Oh, you didn't notice me dear and don't worry, I can hide your secret...".

-I...I don't know what you're talking about, ma'am....

At those words, the woman who was very beautiful, but looks old, showed a terrifying and cold expression.

"Excuse me, how did you tell me?"

Shouko became more alert, her heart began to beat and her brain told her that this woman was dangerous, Shouko's indifferent expression remained, but inside her body told her to get away from her.

My apologies, I didn't mean to offend you.

"Oh...., don't worry dear, a mistake is made by anyone....".

The woman began to laugh slowly but with a kind face, but it didn't convey any kindness to shouko.

[Who is this woman?].
