Seeing her like this, all Xue Ren had to do was run after her. Miss Duan was specially running fast as she used her movement technique. She wanted to test Xue Ren, or rather, to see his progress.

  Xue Ren is obviously fast thanks to his Starlight Movement technique, so he quickly caught up to her. Third level was truly superb. Although her sword was fast, speed wasn't her main attribute. With her bright smile and glittering eyes, she proposed a bet!

  "How about we do a little spar? If you win, I will be your guide in Riveriam City."

  "Well, If I lose, then I will do whatever you want me to."

  "Alright!"

  Shosh! Both immediately distanced from themselves as they released their attacks. Miss Duan quickly released her sword slash. Xue Ren knew that behind this slash are hidden another spirit sword slashes!

  The fire loudly roared as if showing its presence to everyone. With fire arms, he blocked her slash and sparks immediately went for spirit slashes. Countering those spirit sword slashes with only magic was quite a feat.

  'Her control over spirit became stronger!'

  Xue Ren thought as he could feel wounds on his arms. Looks like he can't protect himself with only magic. Since, they were still moving towards Riveriam City as they released their attacks, Xue Ren decided to fight on distance.

  He sent his fire palms towards her, but as one can guess, they got slashed immediately upon the contact. And Xue Ren who has already fought her expected that!

  The palms got slashed, but they didn't disappear. The fingers split and went towards her! Duan Qiu had to move her sword in order to defeat them.

  'Hmm, how should I call it? Fingering? ……Oh that won't do, hehe.'

  If Endrun was getting corrupted by his memories, then the young man was getting corrupted by his Divinity. Truly a pervert!

  The fight was quite similar to their first fight. But the most noticeable difference was that on Duan Qiu. She was smiling brightly and her eyes had countless stars. She was happy at her own progress, but also, because there was someone who is close to her age and acts natural around her.

  "You are truly strange. Your progress can't be explained only by 'potential' or 'talent'. Just how do you do that? …… Ah, sorry."

  Duan Qiu told him this, but then quickly apologized. Asking one about their techniques or secrets was bad manners after all! But she spit it out unconsciously as she was truly curious. After all, Xue Ren was first who has won against her after she has awakened her spirit sword.

  So it was natural that she would be curious about him.

  "Well, who knows…… maybe one day…… you will know about this."

  "Oh! Another target, I see! Baam!"

  Endrun chimed in, but Xue Ren was still ignoring him. Vampire was still acting this way, but inwardly, he was satisfied with this. Xue Ren going for another girls with his common sense from Earth……

  'Splendid! It's the best road for Ren! The road of a harem!'

  The little spar was still going on. The young miss already knew that she is on losing side, but she didn't want to end this quickly. Fighting against Xue Ren was really useful for her.

  "Well, it's my win I guess."

  They already could see Riveriam City's gates. Duan Qiu was breathing roughly and had sweat all over her face. It didn't affect her beauty though.

  "Yes……"

  She turned over and went somewhere. Xue Ren guessed that she went to clean herself up and change clothes. Soon, Miss Duan came back with her usual black red kimono. It were the clothes that suited her perfectly, at least that was what Xue Ren thought.

  "Perfect."

  To his words, Miss Duan twirled showing her black red kimono. Her long red her was following her neatly, then said……

  "How about I get you similar one?"

  Xue Ren was still wearing his usual, plain clothes. He doesn't feel like some kind of big shot or noble. But now, that he is growing quickly and is in relationship with young noble miss……

  "Sure, it is time for some changes."

  "Alright, then give me two or three hours…… I have to settle some matters in my family, then I am going to show you around Riveriam City."

  "Okay."

  And so, they arrived before the gates. The guards seeing Duan Qiu immediately bowed and greeted her. They also didn't make things hard for Xue Ren. He was walking next to her and talking, thus, he obviously was someone she knew! Also, her smile has never disappeared when she was with him……

  "Is he her boyfriend?"

  "Shh…… Young Miss might hear you……"

  One of the guards covered the other mouth as quickly as he could. The young miss talent was known to be one of the highest. He didn't want to displease her or create some kind of misunderstanding. But she still could hear him!

  'Boyfriend……'

  She tried to look at him in different light and began to imagine herself as his girlfriend. If she were in relationship with him, then she could go to the Bluedawn City whenever she wanted and train with him!

  'Hmm, it wouldn't be bad I guess.'

  Even when it came to love, Miss Duan had to link it with training!

  "Duan Qiu?"

  Since she was lost in thought, they were literally moving aimlessly forward! 'Ah!' His words had awakened her and made even blush a little. Embarrassed, she quickly took out the pendant as she said……

  "It's the pendant with my name on it. With this, you will get special treatment in most shops here. I also recommend you a 'East First River Tavern'. You will get discount with my pendant…… Alright, let's meet here in three hours."

  "Okay, thank you."

  As he saw her off, Xue Ren turned around to look at the Riveriam City. It was similar to the Bluedawn City except that there were rivers everywhere! Those rivers had colors of emerald, violet and orange. People were using little boats as if cars moving throughout the city……

  Following the young miss recommendation, Xue Ren moved forward to the tavern she has mentioned. But he had to ask someone for directions……

  Miss Duan forgot to tell him after all……
