A heavy gust of wind penetrated my body.
The sharp red gaze of the black wolf was directed at me.
Beside me, Mio looked so calm and smiled after watching the hundreds of black wolves surrounding us.
"Lily-sama.. this might be a bit too much but.."
"I will be a little serious to win our match," Mio said with a big smile.
"Heee~ is that so? Can I also be serious now?" I replied in response to Mio's provocation.
Without replying to my words, Mio's body suddenly disappeared and appeared in the back row of the black wolves. Mio's small sword slashes and knife throws were seen actively reducing the number of black wolves.
Slaaash!!
Swiiish!!
If left any further, our scores will get closer.
I don't want to lose to Mio!
For that, I will improve my abilities a little through the Purification System.
Improving abilities in the middle of a match isn't cheating, right?

With this, my 30,000 Yurification Points disappeared and I was left with 2,000 Yurification Points.
Based on my experience from previous incidents, great power produces great side effects as well.
Of course, I prepared myself to accept the pain that would come into my body.
Slowly my ears buzzed loudly and my vision shook slightly.
Sooner or later, this pain would come to my body.
Ngiiiing~
"Kuuhuu!!" I endured the pain that attacked my head and body.
The dizziness in my head and the pain that pierced my entire body were a painful combination. But, it was worth it for the power I got.
In this pain, I got some pretty interesting information.
The Mio family's sword style is a martial art that relies on sword movement techniques and mystical attacks that can be done without magic. That's the reason why Mio and I can disappear and appear suddenly without magic chants because we don't need magic to do it.
Thanks to the Sakura Growth Vial and the Wisdom of Sakura, I understand a little about the great power that flows in Mio's blood and the great responsibility that comes with that power.
If it were to be said in a few lines, the Mio family is the strongest family when it comes to using their sword techniques.
How do I know that?
That's because Legendary Move Swordsmanship and Mythic Skill Swordmanship are a deadly combination of attacks without using magic.
In other words, the Sakura Vanish and Sakura Dash that I've been doing are evasive and moving movements that are done very quickly.
"Lily-samaaaa!" Mio called me from a distance.
Mio seemed to smile sarcastically after her score was far above mine.
Mio now moved to my side using Sakura Dash.
"Fufu~ I will win this match, Lily-sama!" said Mio confidently.
"Eh? It's not over yet, right?" I replied.
"Ehehe~ the number of wolves I have killed has reached 67 while Lily-sama has only killed 66. Isn't the winner obvious?" said Mio while smiling triumphantly.
"Mio, it looks like you have to be punished after this. I think your arrogance needs to be fixed," I pressed my words a little and turned my face away from Mio's gaze.
"Eh? Lily-sama?"
"Li-Lily-sama?"
"Lily-sa-"
Mio called me and tried to approach me but I moved to dodge behind her.
"Lily-"
Before Mio could say her words, I took out my sword and activated Sakura Dance.
Instantly, the flow of time that was flowing around me became slow. My body moved through the slowed flow of time and slashed the remaining black wolf's head.
Slaash!!
Sliing!!
Emm, this feels very strange to me.
Slashing them in this condition is too easy for me. This match feels like snatching milk from a baby!
I wanted this match to be fair but Mio's slightly arrogant attitude made me want to tease her with the difference in skill and ability.
After the slow flow of time returned to normal, I immediately swung my sword and put it back into its sheath.
Crash!!
Duug!!
After the sound of my sword entering the scabbard, several black wolves surrounding us began to fall with their heads detached from their bodies.
"Hmm.. I don't remember anymore after reaching 100," I said while looking at Mio's face.
Mio was very surprised by the scene in front of her.
"W-Aaaa-" Mio's gaze was now blank.
"W-What was that!!" Mio said.
"Ahem! Is the winner already decided?" I said while teasing Mio's defeat.
"C-Cheating! Why wasn't Lily-sama serious from the start!" Mio replied while pouting.
"Eh? I can be serious from the start?" I replied in a tone without any guilt.
"Thats cheating! Why can Lily-sama move so fast? Isn't that very cheating to use in a match?" Mio protested.
"There's no rule to use it, right?" I replied.
"Mooo! But that's cheating!"
"Mio.. is it just me or do you want to win so much?" I asked.
"Mooo! I wanted to see Lily-sama in her fox girl form if I won this match."
Ah.. so this is the reason.
Does Mio want to see me in my fox girl form?
If that's the case, it's very easy to do.
I immediately summoned a fox mask and put it on my head.
Poiing~
Ploop~
"Like this?" I said after turning into a fox girl.
"Kyuuuu~ so cute.." said Mio who held herself back from touching my fox ears.
I moved my body closer to Mio's body and hugged her. My nose which had become more sensitive than before smelled Mio's body odor which was covered in sweat.
"Nee~ Mio.." I whispered into Mio's ear.
"Un? What's wrong, Lily-sama?" replied Mio who was busy stroking my fox ears.
"Mio, did you put on perfume before going to this place?"
"H-Huh?" Mio was very confused by my question.
"Un! Mio's body smells really good, especially around this place."
"Hyaaaa!! Lily-sama!!" Mio was very surprised when I buried my face in her armpit.
"A-Anooo.. Lily-sama.."
"Uuuuh.. Hyaaa!!"
Mio's body trembled when I wanted to hug her even tighter.
Mio's body scent smelled very good like the scent of cherry blossoms.
Um... I think I've experienced this before.
But, where?
Sweat that smelled good with a tempting aroma.
"Miooo~" I pulled Mio's arm up.
"Ah, let me borrow this for a moment," I pulled Mio's small sword from her scabbard.
"Mio.. can you raise your arm?"
"Un? Like this?" Mio replied while raising her arm.
Because Mio's Maid uniform had long sleeves, Mio's sweat scent was slightly trapped inside her clothes.
So, I cut her long-sleeved uniform a little into a sleeveless uniform.
Kraaaaak!!
"Um, Lily-sama?" Mio was a little confused by my actions.
Behind Mio's cut uniform, the scent of sweat that had accumulated in her armpits wafted into my nose.
Em! This is so strange!
Why does Mio's sweat smell so fragrant?
I brought my face closer to Mio's armpit and licked it.
"Hyaaaa!!" Mio screamed.
It tastes sweet!
"Wait! Lily-sama!"
"D-Don't lick this dirty part!"
"Nggh~ Hyaaa!!"
I ignored Mio's words and enjoyed Mio's sweet sweat.
"Haaauuu~" Mio could only remain silent while enjoying my actions.
