Martial Arts System
chapter-175

"Hah!" Ichiro opened his eyes with a slam— sweatdrops trickled down his cheeks.

He had the weirdest dream of a certain blond-haired girl with pointy ears, whose smile alone made Ichiro's day better.

In the dream, Azura was also very friendly with the blond-haired girl.

He covered his head, 'Elves? Why would I be thinking about Elf?'

He took a deep breath and shook his head.

Ichiro has never been a big fan of fantasy elements, but he has heard a lot about Elves, Dwarves, Dragons, etc.

"Mmm…" He turned his head and saw a beautiful black-haired girl sleeping peacefully while hugging Ichiro's arm.

Ichiro took his phone from his pocket and took a picture of Azura's sleeping face.

He put it as his wallpaper and put it back in the pocket.

*Yawn*

He yawned and hugged Azura's petite figure.

Azura slowly woke up, and the first thing she saw was Ichiro's smiling face.

She saw her being trapped in Ichiro's hug.

"U-Umm, c-can you let me go?" Azura asked shyly.

Ichiro shook his head, "No." He had a calm smile on his face.

She blushed and tried to move her body out of his clutches, but Ichiro's hands were tightly hugging her.

She pouted and gave up.

Ichiro smiled and kissed her soft lips.

"Mm…" She closed her eyes and pushed her lips harder— she was trying to devour every taste of his lips.

But Ichiro separated his lips and stood up.

"Mm…" She touched her lips and still felt the lingering taste of Ichiro's lips.

Ichiro stopped in front of the bathroom door.

He looked towards Azura and smiled, "Wanna have a bath?"

"N-No!" Azura said with a blushing face and threw pillow towards him.

[Steel Edge – Universe Stop!]

Ichiro put his palm forward, and the pillow stopped like it hit a brick wall.

[Iron Counter!]

The pillow left like a cannon and flew towards Azura.

Azura reeled in her tiny fist and punched in front of her.

Once her fist was about to hit the pillow, she clenched her fist.

*BAM*

The pillow changed directions once again, and it flew straight towards Ichiro.

Ichiro did a fast roundhouse kick and kicked the pillow, which started flying straight towards Azura.

"Kyaa!" Azura hid behind the bed, and the pillow hit the wall behind her.

She stood up and had a massive pout on her face.

Ichiro chuckled, "I used to be called as Pillow Fight King." He entered the bathroom and closed the door behind him.

Azura sat down on the bed with a gentle smile— she looked around the room, and it was still unreal how much her life had changed.

Without meeting Ichiro, her life would be much different.

She doesn't know how different, but Ichiro and System knows how much darker it would be.

She felt incredibly grateful towards Ichiro and would do anything for him.

Anything!

Azura lied down on the bed and sniffed the air in front of her.

She smelled a very sweet scent.

She turned her head and saw the scent coming from Ichiro's pillow.

Azura took a quick glimpse towards the bathroom door and saw it closed.

She crawled towards the pillow and put her face on it.

She took a long sniff, and her face was dyed in pink.

She closed her eyes and enjoyed the scent.

Ten minutes later, Ichiro exited the bathroom while wearing only a bathrobe, but then he saw an interesting sight.

He saw a beautiful black-haired girl lying down on her stomach while her face was buried inside his pillow.

He could also see her smooth-looking thighs because she was wearing a skirt, and it was pulled slightly up, which almost made her underwear visible.

She was wearing black-colored kneesocks, which made her legs even more appetizing.

Ichiro raised an eyebrow— he walked next to the bed and heard Azura sniffing the pillow.

"What are you doing?" He asked with an amused smile.

Azura flinched— she turned her hazy gaze towards Ichiro, "I-I felt sleepy?"

"Aha." Ichiro chuckled.

Azura pouted and threw Ichiro's pillow towards him.

Ichiro effortlessly caught it.

He lied down on the bed next to her and put his pillow on the bed.

He put his head on the pillow and looked at Azura with an amused smile.

"Hmph." Azura turned towards Ichiro and asked, "Night Tournament will start tomorrow, and next week starts the Event."

Ichiro nodded, "I need to find something to do until then.

"You could play Arena and get into top 1?" Azura gave a suggestion like it wasn't a big deal of him reaching top 1.

Ichiro smiled, "I don't think I will play Night's End until the event, maybe training instead."

Azura put her head closer and touched his nose with her own, "Do you have to train?"

"I am not injured anymore, and I already felt that I am rusty from having a pillow fight."

Azura sighed and nodded— she grabbed his bathrobe and said, "Be careful."

Ichiro laughed, "Hehe, it's only training."

Azura pouted and did a small peck on his lips.

Ichiro leaned closer and locked her lips with his own.

Azura put her arms over his shoulders and pulled him closer.

Ichiro's hands started moving closer towards her buttocks.

He touched her buttocks and grabbed it tightly.

"Mmm!" She widened her eyes in shock.

"Ahh!" She moaned loudly and hugged Ichiro's body tightly.

[Calm Nature Activated!]

Ichiro's lustful thoughts disappeared— he quickly removed his hands and put his head on Azura's shoulder.

'Thanks…' He said in his mind.

[No problem]

Azura woke up from her state, but there was still a visible blush on her face, "U-Umm, is something wrong?" She asked while breathing roughly.

Ichiro sighed, "Sorry…"

"D-Don't be…" She said quietly— she stood up from the bed and started walking towards the room with slightly shaky steps, "I-I w-will go shopping with my mom, see you…"

She left the room.

After she left the room, her breathing got very rough— she quickly shook her head and went towards her room.

She had a little accident, which needs a change of clothing.

Ichiro facepalmed, "I almost did something I would regret."

[Why would you regret it? You both love each other]

"I regretted doing it with Amanda, and I would have regretted this as well— I can feel it…" Ichiro sighed— he opened Inventory and took a violet-colored book.

[Book of Etiquette]

He opened the first page and started reading the instructions of being the perfect gentleman.

"I need to make sure of my feelings before we cross the final line," Ichiro said towards System.
