A day later, a Martial Squire stopped by the Orphanage. He immediately found another Martial Squire waiting for him at the gate.
"Squire Casen." Rui greeted him. "You're here."
"Squire Quarrier." The woman replied. She looked several years older than Rui, with brown eyes and green hair extending to her waist.
"Let's go," Rui told her, as he began sky walking.
"Where to?" She frowned, as she followed along.
"To where we'll be training," Rui told her as he led her deep into the forest near the Orphanage, towards a hill.
Rui had cleared himself a lot of land, suspecting that he'd need the space for what he was planning.
"You do have a striking technique, right?" Rui asked for confirmation. He had made that one of the conditions of the commission. He was going to be testing the idea he had come up with for the Bounce Project. He needed his training partner to possess at least one striking Martial Art technique.
"Of course." She replied.
"Good." Rui nodded.
