Morning Training

Next weekend, Lou does his usual daily routine, a morning exercise and buying breakfast for everyone.

"You're early."

Lou turns around and sees Miku who silently appears behind him smiling while watching his usual martial art routine.

"It's needed, Master said that a knife that is not polished is a dull knife, Martial artists need to polish their own techniques to prevent being dull in case of emergency," Lou said.

"You're right, you need to publish your technique to gain even a small advantage to your opponent." Mikumo looked at Lou and nodded.

"Your master seems a good teacher, your foundation is pretty solid, it's not clearly seen but your body seems molded like a textbook."

"I always train on the way my teacher wants me to do, master will not harm you anyway but they will guide you to the right path."

"That's right, no master will harm his or her own student."

"If you raise your arms like this, the reflection will be easier." Mikumo slightly pushes Lou's arm upward trying to correct some wrong stance.

"By the way, I forgot to ask, what kind of Martial Art are you mastering?"

"Kushinada Style Jujitsu"

"Kushinada Style Jujitsu? What is your Style from the original Jujutsu?"

"Kushinada Style Jujitsu was created by my Mother. This style was made to use no strength but 100% Skill."

"A style that only uses 100% Skill? That's pretty hard."

"You're right, a technique only using 100% Skill is pretty hard, but if you master it, you can easily fight even if the opponent is stronger than you."

Mikumo skillfully circles around behind Lou, and then proceeds to place a hand on him in order to launch them directly into the ground with full force.

Kushinada-ryū Chichūnage

But Lou grabbed her soft hand and tried to counter it with a counter throw but he felt something different from the throw, he couldn't feel any strength from her at all.

"It seems you already noticed it."

"..."

"Jujutsu is the art of countering, a normal master uses a bit of strength to perform a perfect throw but mine is different. I did not use any strength at all so you can't gather my strength to counter it."

Lou then sees the sky and he realizes he is already lying on the ground.

"Any kind of technique, if you master it, you don't need to use any strength, you can perfectly use the strength of your opponent to defeat them, that's the essence of Kushinada Style Jujutsu."

"I feel I know why your Mother created this Technique."

"?"

"This technique is a perfect techne for women and girls, a specially made technique for those who don't have strength but a smart mind."

"You're pretty right, Kushinada Style Jujitsu needs to be smart when learning. If not , you will only waste your time learning it."

"Martial Art is not just all about strength for muscle and body, you also can become strong just using your own knowledge and brain."

Looking at Lou, Mikumo doesn't know how she needs to act in front of him.

Mikumo holds the belief that empathy is weakness and that the strong do not let their heart be shaken by the weak.

But right now, her heart is calmly talking to a weaker being, she even teaches him her own family style that also confuses her heart.

She never get closer to any opposite sex, except for that Oldman and the member of her organization, Mikumo never fel thai close to anyone than Lou.

She also tries to kill Lou multiple times but before she can do that, she already notices that she is near him again talking like two friends.

'What kind of magic do you use on me to make me take initiative to get closer to you?' She asked inwardly.

Mikumo can see that Loud is so pretty unique to the men she sees every day, except that he is handsome as Elf and princess there's nothing unique about him at all.

Pretty long legs, white and soft skin, big round eyes, a simple mannerism that you can easily tell he is a respectful person.

He is also hardworking, waking up early to train his teacher for lessons, and it seems Lou is also an exceptional student with great knowledge about martial arts.

Lou is also a Sei Practitioner like her.

A Sei-type martial artist hides his intention to fight, instead focusing on sensing his/her environment, then releases it quickly in response to danger. Sei is actually meant that this type of martial artist fights not with power or anger, but with talent, skills, and wit

Meanwhile, the Dou counterpart is a type of martial artist who uses his/her anger to exceed his/her limits. As such, they tend to be aggressive in combat, and very rarely strays from the offensive.

In some cases, they are even bestial, after receiving intense emotional pain and frustration, respectively. Users seem to rely heavily on instincts and brute strength when fighting.

"I think it's already time, I'm going first," Lou said.

Mikumo snapped out hearing Lou finally going back, she slightly felt reluctant but she nodded to him wordlessly.

"Wait,"

"?"

"Here, take this you need to eat a complete breakfast every day to make your day more productive." Lou gives her soymilk and then walks back on his own.

Mikumo looks at the bottle of Soymilk with a slightly dazed face, she never gets anything from anyone except if she asks for it, that is the first time someone asks her to eat breakfast in the morning that she usually forgot because of her training.

"Master, Master~ why are you so dazed?"

Mikumo snaps out for the second time looking at the drink that she got from Lou, this time, her disciple calls her.

"It's nothing, let's go Chikage, let's eat first before we start your training."

"Eat?"
