Even if you succeed in jobless reincarnation and time magic, you must live life to the fullest.

When I got home, Lucy dragged me into talking about dating gossip, and by the time I came to my senses...

The sun has risen.

After not sleeping all night, Yars felt completely out of sorts, as if his body was about to fall apart.

He touched the handkerchief in his pocket.

yesterday……

No, he washed the handkerchiefs clean this morning and then asked Lucy to help him dry them with mixed magic.

Ars stood at the entrance of the dojo, his eyes scanning every figure entering and leaving.

Because he didn't know where to find Liz, and only knew that she was a student at the dojo, he could only resort to this clumsy method.

She will definitely pass by the main gate whenever she comes.

Jars fought off his drowsy sleepiness and waited at the door for a full half hour.

Finally, just as he was about to fall asleep, he caught a glimpse of a figure walking towards him from a distance.

Her golden hair was tied up high at the back of her head, her slightly childlike face was delicate and flawless, and even her loose and thick clothes could not hide her slender waist.

Her long, slender legs, encased in clean white socks, swayed as she walked step by step toward the dojo.

Another girl with freckles on her face followed closely behind, chattering away beside her.

"finally come."

Ars took a deep breath and mustered his courage to step forward.

And the other side.

Liz and Lyca were walking side by side toward the dojo when suddenly, a boy with bright red hair blocked their way.

They both stopped at the same time.

"Hello, um... do you remember me?" Jars greeted him somewhat shyly.

Liz was stunned.

She hadn't expected Yars to stop her here, and she couldn't help but feel nervous.

But soon she felt confused, wondering why she was nervous.

What's there to be nervous about?

I haven't done anything shameful.

Thinking of this, Liz asked seriously, "Is there something you need?"

"This handkerchief."

Ignoring Liz's feigned indifference, Ars pulled a neatly folded handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to her.

"I was going to return it to you yesterday, but you ran off too fast..."

Liz's previously stern face instantly crumbled.

She certainly remembered that Yars called after her when she left last night, but she didn't dare to stop at all, as she was only thinking about leaving as quickly as possible.

Unexpectedly, I left my handkerchief at their place.

Her pretty face flushed slightly, and she quickly waved her hand, saying, "It's okay, you can keep it."

Ars assumed she thought it was dirty, so he said, "Don't worry, I've washed it very clean, there's definitely no smell at all."

"That was not what I meant……"

Liz pursed her lips.

At that moment, she suddenly noticed that many eyes were on her.

Those were people passing by the main gate who saw what was happening on their side and stopped to watch.

Liz didn't want to be made a fool of, so she quickly snatched the handkerchief away.

"I got the handkerchief back, that's all."

Liz spoke very quickly.

After saying that, she took Leica's hand and quickened her pace to leave.

Ars was left standing there, somewhat at a loss.

……

Liz herself didn't know why, but her heart would always race whenever she stood in front of Ars.

Especially when looking at Jars's every smile and glance.

My body feels like it doesn't belong to me anymore; it just won't obey my commands.

Liz grabbed Lyca's hand and ran into the dojo, only stopping when she had completely shaken off Ars.

She took a couple of breaths and was about to take Lyca to change her clothes.

Suddenly, he noticed that Leica was staring at him with wide eyes.

That expression was as if he had seen a ghost.

"Leica?" Liz tilted her head.

Lyca stammered, "Liz, you...you don't actually have feelings for him, do you?"

"What do you mean?"

That's exactly what I mean.

"What does that mean... wait, what are you thinking? Why would you have such a strange idea?"

Liz said, somewhat amused and exasperated.

"But what you just did... my God, I should have given you a mirror to see your expression. And why is your handkerchief with him? What happened between you two last night, I mean, after I left?"

Lyca looked Liz up and down with suspicion, as if trying to see right through her.

Liz rolled her eyes and said irritably, "Don't overthink it! I just happened to run into him when I left yesterday and we chatted for a bit."

"You only chatted for a couple of minutes? That's not like you at all. And if it was just a couple of minutes, would you even leave your handkerchief with him?" Leica was completely incredulous.

Liz was somewhat helpless.

Could she say that she was just in a hurry and accidentally left her handkerchief with Ars?

Saying that will only create more problems.

At that moment, a figure waved to her from afar from the dojo.

It's Warif.

She decided not to explain further, and waved her hand, saying, "Let's not talk about this now, I'm going to practice my sword. See you tonight."

"Hey, Liz!"

Liz walked away without looking back.

Seeing this, Lyca sighed helplessly, turned around and looked behind her, but the guy named Yars did not follow.

"Sigh, I really don't know what she's thinking."

She muttered to herself, "That guy, besides being handsome, what makes him any better than young master Boris? What an idiot..."

……

……

Swordsmanship allows Liz to focus without distractions.

As soon as I grasp the sword, it's as if all my worries disappear.

"Excellent, a great improvement!"

Wolf nodded approvingly. "Liz, you are the second most talented person I have ever seen after Izoruti. I even think that one day you will surpass her."

Liz took a deep breath, but didn't answer; she simply gripped her sword tightly.

Swordsmanship allows Liz to focus without distractions.

As soon as you hold the sword, it's as if all your worries disappear.

“Professor Warif, I would like to go into the simulation training room again,” Liz said solemnly.

"No problem at all!"

"Warif said with delight."

……

……

In this simulated training session, she lasted 6 minutes and 28 seconds.

There has been progress in terms of time.

However, considering the unfamiliarity with the simulation training room during the first attempt, this time's results may be more suitable as a benchmark.

Liz was very satisfied with the simulation training room because it helped her find loopholes that even she herself could not detect.

That Thor thing, he really did create something pretty good.

After training, Liz returned to the dojo to continue practicing her swordsmanship.

Before we knew it, the sun had set behind the mountains.

The evening glow enveloped the entire Yars, and figures gradually left the dojo.

"Liz, let's go!" Lyca skipped over.

Liz said without turning her head, "You go back first."

"I want to practice a little longer."
