71: Punishment

Punishment

After cultivating for the rest of the day and through the night, Mira got up and went to train Maria. They met in their usual place, the courtyard, to train. Mira saw Maria waiting for her there and walked up to her. She didn't say anything as she approached Maria, but when she got in range Mira quickly took out her scythe and swung towards Maria. Maria was barely able to dodge in time as she felt the blade of the scythe almost chop her head off. Mira didn't stop there and continued to come at Maria with the intent to kill her. Mira continued to swing her scythe as Maria just continued to dodge. Mira then spoke to her as she kept swinging.1

"Today's lesson will be on how to fight someone that has a weapon when you don't. Now come!" Mira said as she swung her scythe down again and Maria was barely able to dodge.

"Are you crazy Mira?! I don't know how to do that! Plus, why does it feel like you are actually trying to kill me?! That first swing almost cut off my head!" Maria yelled.
