✦
The boxing ring was bustling today, a bustling crowd gathering to cheer for the fighters. Even the surrounding cats purred for them.
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
When Susannah squeezed into the crowd, she saw Durandal in the rink, readily fighting her opponent.
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
(The boxing ring is lit by firelight that resembles the shining stars in the sky, and Durandal-sama is the brightest star of them all.)
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
(She stands there, like a legendary goddess of war, confidently facing every challenger that steps up.)
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
(Fearless individuals walk into the ring, attempting to emerge victorious, but all fall to her strong attacks.)
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
(Even though she is peerless, she treats every opponent with equal respect. Her agile steps and dominating aura morphs into punches in the ring.)
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
(Another challenger is defeated by her seamless offense. The firelight around the ring gives her a glorious crown, and I only remember her bright, gem-like eyes.)
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
(She gently holds her hand out to me, and with a smile she says—)
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Susannah, it’s your turn!
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
What?
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
As if awakening from a dream, Susannah looked around, and realized everyone but Durandal had left the spacious gym.
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Training… relaxing in the boxing gym occasionally feels good. I didn’t know the locals are so friendly.
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
You came to practice boxing, right? Want to join me?
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
(So Durandal-sama also boxes to relax. I want to ask her how to get stronger, but I can’t box—)

Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
But Durandal-sama, I don’t know how to box…
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
I see. Do you want to learn, then?
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Of course!
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Light shone on her eyes, which sparkled like honey. Seeing how eager Susannah was, Durandal couldn’t help but smile as she gently put boxing gloves on her.
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Great, I’ll teach you.
💬
Fake it till you make it!
< Alert: Admiration for Durandal-sama increased! >
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Alright…
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Susannah pinched the hem of her clothes, before picking up the boxing gloves next to her. She squeezed her hands into them, but was unable to fasten the straps. While she was struggling, a pair of hands did it for her skillfully.
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
I’ll help you, Susannah.
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Ah, thank you! And… sorry, Durandal-sama, I confess that I can’t box.
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
No problem, we all have to start somewhere. Since you’re interested, I’ll teach you.
< Dialogue remains unchanged from this point. >
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Wow! Thank you for your guidance! May I record it, then? I want to save your precious guidance in video format!
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Video? Oh, Rita asked you to shoot promo videos of us, right? I’m fine with that.
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Yay! Thank you, Durandal-sama!
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
In the boxing ring, a gloved Susannah stood side by side with Durandal.
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Relax your stance, keep it balanced and mobile, so you can attack or defend anytime.
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Okay, give myself leeway!
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Lower your upper body, protect your ribs with your upper arms and your face with your fists.
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Okay, protect my face in a fight! Um… face?
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Jab horizontally forward and pull back like a spring. Bob your head often in case of counters.
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Okay, bob my head!
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
You’re doing well. But these movements aren’t useful as routines. Let’s put them into practice.
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Al-alright!

Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Huff… Huff…
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
(It’s finally over… Durandal-sama’s offensive leaves no respite.)
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
That was great, Susannah. Here you go.
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
The panting girl took the water bottle from Durandal. Hearing this compliment made her heart leap and her fatigue evaporate.
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Thank you, Durandal-sama! While fighting, I must give myself leeway, protect my face, and bob my head! I’ve got it all memorized!
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Ah?
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
I’ll practice the combat secrets you taught me.
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Combat secrets? Are you talking about those boxing fundamentals? Well… you aren’t exactly wrong. I see you’re a fast learner, why don’t we strike while the iron is hot and practice again?
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Ehhhh? Practice again?
💬
Okay…
💬
I’ll practice on my own.
< Select one of the options to proceed. >
💬
Okay…
< Alert: Admiration for Durandal-sama increased! >
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Huff… Okay, Durandal-sama, I-I can do it.
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Susannah panted and struggled to climb onto the ring, but her body was too fatigued to carry on. When she was about to fall, a pair of strong arms caught her. She looked up and saw Durandal’s concerned face.
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Are you okay, Susannah? I was only joking, sorry for causing you trouble. The truth is, whether you’re training or working, you shouldn’t push yourself too hard. You’ll do better if you take it easy.
💬
I’ll practice on my own.
< Alert: Admiration for Durandal-sama increased! >
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
I’ll practice on my own. I’ve already taken up a lot of your time, I’m sorry about that.
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Don’t say that, it’s a captain’s duty to instruct her subordinates. Besides, you were very good.
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Thank you! I’ll continue to practice, no, I’ll go practice now!
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Don’t worry, Susannah, I was only joking. You should train at your pace. Take it easy.
< Dialogue remains unchanged from this point. >
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Was that a joke? Durandal-sama can joke? And tell people to take it easy?
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Oh? Did you take me for someone whose life revolves around training and missions?
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Yes… I meant no! I meant you’re the type to go any lengths to do everything perfectly.
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
So the strong and self-disciplined Durandal-sama is who we all aim to be!
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
I’m only doing what I want. However, this doesn’t mean my way is the only way to become an ideal Valkyrie.
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Huh? Then training and performing missions…
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Training and performing missions are the basic responsibilities of a Valkyrie. However, there’s no single right answer to what makes a Valkyrie ideal. Besides, now everyone has the opportunity to choose their own answer.
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Choose my own answer… But Durandal-sama, for someone who freezes up in every battle, what will my answer be…
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
But you did great in the boxing ring.
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Really? I was?
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Confronting your opponents in the ring with no way out is similar to fighting. Susannah, remember how decisive and confident you felt when throwing a punch?
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Ah? Yeah, I remember.
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Be it fighting or other things, remember the feeling of letting your burdens go when throwing a punch in the ring. I know you can do it.
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
I-I’ll remember those words.
Durandal
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Haha, it’s getting late, I’ll be going if that’s all. I haven’t bought what Rita asked me to.
Susannah
✦
✦
✦
✦
✦
Goodbye, Durandal-sama!
