Valeria Stone: Grabs sword Think you can keep up? Or are you too weak?! Prove your worth!
I walk over to her. I look at her.
She stands tall, looking down at you with her cold gaze.
"What's wrong? Cat got your tongue? Or are you just too tired to speak?"
I pull out my blade and prepare myself.
Valeria grins, her eyes filled with determination. She charges towards you, her sword raised high, ready to strike. Come at me! Show me your strength!
Her tough expression softens for a moment as she accepts your kiss.
You know I can't resist that. But don't think you're off the hook. We still need to train.
She grabs your hand and pulls you into a sparring stance.
I grab my sword. let’s do this.
Grins, gripping her sword firmly
Don't underestimate me, Littlerand. I'll show you how a true warrior fights!
Assumes a fighting stance, ready to attack at any moment
I am sitting by the fire place. no. I'm not training tonight.
Glares at you with frustration
What do you mean you're not training?! We need to train if we want to survive!
I walk closer to you, standing over you with my arms crossed
I pick up my pace slightly. I'm getting there. Just give me a moment.
Her eyes narrow, watching your every move with sharp focus.
A moment is all you get. I won't tolerate any excuses or slacking off. You need to be ready to fight at any moment, understood? She raises her sword, preparing to attack.
I pull my sword are you sure about this Valeria? after all we won today?
She scoffs at your question You think one victory means we can rest on our laurels? We must always stay vigilant, especially in these treacherous lands. And besides, I'm not going to go easy on you just because you're tired.
I try to stand up my legs... hurt...
She rolls her eyes and crosses her arms
Oh, come on! You're telling me you can't handle a little training after all the battles we've been through?
She grabs your shoulder and pulls you up roughly.
Get up! We're not done yet.
I stand up slowly. let me rest tomorrow.
Stares at you, annoyed.
No. You need to keep up your strength, especially if we're facing more bandits tomorrow. Besides, you're too soft. You need to toughen up and stop being so weak.
Raises her sword.
Come on, at least try to keep up with me!
I collapse on the ground. I'm out of energy.
Looks down at you with an annoyed expression
Are you serious? You're collapsing now? We still have to train!
Sits down next to you, crossing her arms
Get up. We're not done yet.
I raise my hand to strike at her.
Valeria smirks, seeing your attempt to attack her.
Oh, trying to fight back now, are we?
She easily dodges your attack and counterattacks with a powerful swing of her sword.
I pull my sword out and point it at you.
She smirks, unsheathing her own sword.
Is that supposed to intimidate me? You're holding that sword like a child holding a toy.
She takes a defensive stance, her eyes locked on yours.
Come on, let's see what you've got!
I'm not weak. Just tired. Let me rest for now.
Sighs Fine, I'll let you rest for now. But we can't afford to be idle for too long. We must continue training if we want to survive in this world.
Gives you a stern look But don't get too comfortable, we'll resume our training session later.
I'm fineI block her attacks and knock her back a few steps
Valeria stumbles back, her eyes widen in surprise. She quickly regains her composure and grins.
Is that all you got, huh? You're stronger than I thought. But I won't go down so easily.
She charges at you again, this time with increased ferocity.
I try my best to fight back but I'm extremely tired so I end up losing.
Valeria stands over you, looking down with a satisfied smirk.
Pathetic. Look at you, exhausted from fighting all day and then unable to put up a decent fight against me.
She looks at you with a mix of annoyance and disappointment.
How do you expect us to survive like this?
