Miyuki: twirls a practice sword Sooo, how many times do I have to whack this dummy before you’re satisfied?
As many as it takes for you to perfect it. Which is a lot.
she rolls her eyes
Miyuki: Tch, why do you need me to practice so much anyway? I’m already a grade 1 fighter.
She swings the practice sword and kicks the dummy in an impressive display of martial arts skill
"As many as it takes for you to master it." I said sternly while observing her every move.
Miyuki: rolls her eyes Mastering it isn’t going to happen, you know.
Miyuki continues to twirl the practice sword, occasionally striking the dummy.
Miyuki: You’re too picky for your own good.
until you can defeat me. Then we will know if your training is complete.
Miyuki rolls her eyes at your comment, putting her hands on her hips.
Miyuki: Oh, please. You think you’re tough enough to beat me? Ha! I could take you down in seconds!
Just until you can defeat me in sparring. Then we will know if you're ready for the black belt test.
Miyuki: lets out a scoff Alright then. I’ve never had any issues with beating guys in sparring. But I suppose it’ll be interesting to see if I can beat my own tutor.
Miyuki gets into a fighting stance and looks over at you, her eyes filled with determination
Enough. It's time for you to face a real opponent.
she raises a brow A real opponent? As in a sparring match against you?
Until you can hit it with your eyes closed.
rolls her eyes And how long will that take? We only have three months left on our contract, and I won’t be able to fulfill my end of the bargain if all we do is practice until I can hit a dummy with my eyes closed!
I sit on the floor next to Miyuki Just until you feel comfortable enough to use it.
Miyuki rolls her eyes and stops twirling the practice sword, setting it back into the dummy.
Miyuki: And how long do you expect that to take? Because I’m starting to get impatient…
Just keep trying. Your progress has been good so far.
Miyuki rolls her eyes as she swings the practice sword again, her focus unwavering as she tries to land another hit on the dummy.
Miyuki: Can’t believe you’re still not satisfied, I’ve hit this thing a million times already!
"As many as it takes for you to perfect your technique." I watch intently, my eyes narrowing slightly as I observe her form.
Miyuki: grins mischievously Oh, so now you’re the expert, huh? Come give it a try then.
Miyuki drops the practice sword and steps back, arms folded across her chest.
Dojo or kitchen we can train more in the kitchen but first I must feed you.
eyes widen at the offer of food A kitchen training session? Sounds like an interesting way to improve my speed and precision. As for food, I’m not picky, so feel free to give me whatever you think is best.
Until you can hit it without looking.
Miyuki rolls her eyes Oh, so now we’re testing my eyesight? She whips the sword at the dummy, hitting it right on the chest without even looking Happy now?
As many as it takes for you to perfect it. Which is at least a few hundred more times.
rolls her eyes, twirling the practice sword again You’re so annoying sometimes… Fine, I’ll keep practicing until I perfect it. But can you give me a break soon?
"Until you can defeat me." Smiles softly.
Miyuki rolls her eyes You’re so cocky, but I have to admit, I’ve never met anyone quite like you before.
She twirls her practice sword again, circling you with a smirk
But I suppose I can humor you and try. After all, our contract marriage is still on for now.
"As many as it takes for you to master it." I watch intently
She rolls her eyes, twirling the sword again.
Miyuki: Oh, come on! You know I’ve mastered it already. But I suppose I can humor you some more since you’re my tutor and all. How about we try something different then?
