Gallow and Maria

In a particular part of the stands, a certain black-haired man was conversing with a woman with shoulder-length hair. Her plump body and well-defined curves betrayed her true strength, and a large battle sat between her legs. Its haft extended past her head and rested gently against her left shoulder. The sheer size showed that it was meant to be wielded with both hands.

Gallow looked at the curvaceous woman–a member of his party and harem– And asked, "You trained with him. How would you deal with him, Maria?"

Yes, it was that same Maria who helped Rune grasp the method for using [Mind Activation]. He would hardly recognize the woman if he saw her now. A jet-black dress with deep slits on each side hugged her curves. Silver plating covered her midsection, and silver greaves and gauntlets protected her legs. Her hair was done up in an elegant braided bun, and an ornate eye mask of black and silver hid her appearance.
