Ryuji pressed off the wooden panels, his legs vertical in the air. His fingers were straight as his body repeated the vertical push-ups.
Ryuji trained like this since fighting the group of knights. He would remove a finger after every twenty repetitions, sweating from head to toe. As he came down for push-up number 758, he looked up at Alan, who stood speaking with a mature woman.
'Who is that woman?'
'Her abs are more amazing than my mother's...'
"Alan? Who is this lady?" Ryuji paused his vertical push-up, asking from midair. He was somewhat out of breath, using both his demonic energy and physical strength for the exercises.
However, after he awakened as a demon, Ryuji discovered that working out became far more efficient and actually helped him become stronger than when he was a human.
