Mariko smiled upon hearing her. "Your strong desire to fight them will be so goddamn useful on your training.." She said, The two looked at her. "Unlike those common fresh soldiers, They think nothing but to worry about dying in the battlefield, without even thinking of killing their enemies" She continued. "You lose your composure as you overthink, You're not calm... If you're not thinking properly, You're hugging your own death... Imagine being calm and was able to read your foe's mind without even trying, Being calm have a huge advantage" She continued further. "Wait, You're talking about a duel! How about a large scale battle, like, On an open field?! Where there is just too many enemies!" Ayumi asked. "What? It's the same! You keep calm and hit your enemies! Remember that there are many enemies in front of you, so you have to focus on your targets and don't let your mind waver!" Mariko answered. "Also remember that you have allies in your side, so being reckless and swinging your weapon without using your head can lead to you killing your own team" She continued. "Yeah! Okay! I understand! I will be careful!" Ayumi nods with determination, Though Mariko was confused. "Isn't that Chiho's line? Why is the daughter of the hero is so quiet on the corner?" She looked at Chiho. "I'm not as noisy as Ayumi-chan... I know everything you said, you know.." Chiho answered. "Y-Yeah.. That's what i thought.." Mariko looked away, scratching her head. "Oh, yeah!" Mariko suddenly stood up from the bed, surprising the two. "How are we going to train tomorrow without a proper amount of weapons? Let's go buy some, right now!" Despite Mariko's cheerful suggestion, The two didn't give any reaction. "But we left our money back in our village. They're probably burnt right now.." Ayumi answered. "Y-Yeah, i didn't think about that.." Mariko was about to lie down again but Chiho also stood up. "Maybe we can borrow from Gentaro-san?" She guessed.
