Start By Becoming A Mangaka

Chapter 558: Sparring Partner

Yuuki looked at her and asked her confirmation, "Are you serious?"

"Yes, I want to fight you," Honda said with a deadpan expression.

"Why?" Yuuki asked with a curious expression.

"I failed to protect her earlier, I was too late to stop the woman who was trying to attack her," Honda said.

""It's not your fault, her attack is very sudden and it is normal for you not to be able to react," Yuuki said.

"No, my duty is to protect Marika-sama, I failed her earlier, maybe I'm getting too comfortable here, that is why when I saw you protected her earlier, that makes me want to try to fight you, just this once let me try to fight with you," Honda said while starting to get into her stance.

Yuuki thought for a while and nodded, "Alright, but I won't do it for free."

"What do you want?" Honda asked and somehow she had an idea what kind of payment he wanted.

"How about a kiss?" Yuuki asked.

Honda nodded since she had done it before with him, "I don't mind, then we can start?"

"Sure," Yuuki nodded.

"Then...." Honda started to disappear, "Be careful...."

Yuuki used his magic to find her and he found her hiding behind a tree. He had heard from Marika that Honda was from a ninja clan in Kyoto that had a duty to protect her family from past time. He moved his head from right to left to dodge her throwing weapons.

Swosh! Swosh! Swosh!

Honda ran very fast toward him and threw something.

Yuuki saw that it was kusari-fundo, a traditional weapon from this country.

Kusari-fundo is a handheld weapon used in feudal Japan, consisting of a length of chain (kusari) with a weight (fundo) attached to each end of the chain.

Yuuki titled his head and caught the chain with his bare hand. He pulled the chain to make her closer.

Honda didn't expect that his strength was really this strong. She was pulled and thrown toward him.

Yuuki extended his arm out from the side of the body and parallel to the ground. He was doing a clothesline from the wrestling movement. He intended to hit her right into her neck, ending this duel as soon as possible.

Honda, who was in the air, let out her chain and did a somersault to avoid his attack. She straightened her right leg with the heel descending onto an opponent like the blade of an axe.

Swish!

Yuuki used his free hand to catch her heel before it attacked him.

Catch!

Honda tried to escape but his grip was too strong. She used another hidden weapon on her body and threw it toward him.

Yuuki didn't let her weapon be thrown and made an arm-lock on her hands.

Honda was on the ground and one of her arms was locked by him. She wanted to stab his legs but his power was too strong and made her suffocate. Her face started to become blue and her body became weak. She couldn't breathe and almost passed out until he let her go.

"Cough! Cough!" Honda coughed several times and there was a tear in her eyes.

"Is that enough?" Yuuki asked.

"You sure are merciless," Honda said.

"Do you want me to hold back?" Yuuki asked.

Honda shook her head and held one of her arms in pain, "No, thank you for not holding back."

Yuuki helped her to sit on the nearest chair, "Let me help you." He started to massage her arms and the other parts that were painful.

Honda wasn't sure when he started to massage her but suddenly she felt her body very comfortable. She felt that her arms started to feel better and the stressed muscles on her body also felt better, "You're really good with a massage."

Yuuki smiled, "I have a better massage though."

"Really?" Honda asked with interest.

"Of course, though, I'm not sure whether you want to accept it," Yuuki asked.

Honda wanted to reply to him but suddenly her phone rang. She looked at her phone and saw it was from her lady. She sighed and said, "I'm sorry..."

"Don't worry, there is a lot of chance," Yuuki said with a relaxing expression.

"Alright, I will go back," Honda said and stood up.

"Wait!" Yuuki said.

"What's wrong?" Honda turned her head and she was greeted by his kiss. She didn't stop him and received his kiss eagerly.

They started the second rounds of their fight but this time they were using their lips and tongues. He attacked her fiercely at the back of her teeth while sucking her lips.

Honda was helpless in his relentless attacks and hugged his neck weakly to support her to stand.

It was quite a long fight but in the end, he had won once again, "I have gotten my payment."

"Hmmm," Honda hid her face on his chest and didn't want him to see her reddened face.

"I will go back," Yuuki said since it was quite late.

"Can we have a spar next time?" Honda asked.

"Sure, but you need to prepare a payment again," Yuuki said.

"I don't mind..." Honda said and turned toward the apartment. She moved very fast, not letting him see her face right now.

Yuuki wasn't sure but a blushing older woman was a very cute scene for him. He really loved her bashful expression when he took her lips. He traced the warmth on his lips and smiled. He walked in quite a happy mood until he heard a sound in the bushes. He was curious and wondering whether there was someone who was doing an outside activity.

"Yuuki?"

Yuuki was startled when he saw her, "Shino-kaichou? What are you doing here?" He also heard another sound coming from the bushes.

"Ah, Shino-chan wait for me!"

"Aria?" Yuuki was startled again when he saw another acquaintance.

"Ah, Yuuki!" Aria was surprised.

"So what are you doing?" Yuuki asked.

"We are doing a Student Council Activity here," Shino said with a confident tone.

'Here? In the middle of the night? In the park where a couple usually have their fun?' There were a lot of things that he wanted to ask but in the end, he held his question inside his head.

"Yuuki, do you want to follow us?" Aria asked with a hopeful expression.

Yuuki looked at them and there were only two girls here and it was quite dangerous to leave them alone, "Alright..." He was wondering whether it was the right decision or not.
