"Awu! Awu! Awu! Awu!"

Left! Right! Left! Right!

Swoosh. Swoosh. Swoosh. Swoosh.

It has been a month since I woke up.
After Miss "gave" me Princess Senu, she gave me a book.
There are many martial arts techniques in that book.
I'm currently training the basics. Since that's written on the first page.

By the way, I had my mai- Princess Senu read me the book since the words were too profound for me.

As I said, the first page contains fundamentals which are necessary to master if I want to learn the other techniques in the book.

Left! Right! Left! Right!

According to the book, I need to train my muscles first.
That would take a lot of training, heavy lifting and such.
But, the book says I should take a comfortable stance and punch with my fists.
I have to punch until I can't take it anymore, take a five minutes break and continue.
I have to do this process twenty times a day for a month.
This is my last day.
That's too bad.
I quite enjoying sitting on Miss's lap...

"Awu! Awu! Awu! Awu!"

When I first started, I had trouble doing the second set.
I would break into sweat and collapse into Miss's bosom.
That was of course, unintentional. Really.

But, after a month.

Left! Right! Left! Right!

I can keep going without breaking a sweat.
All twenty sets in one go.
What a mysterious book!

Left! Right! Left! Right!

"Awu!" 20!

Twenty sets done!
I did it!

"Ohh, are you done?" Miss asks me.
"Awu!" I quickly answer.

Fuuu... I'm glad Miss looks normal today.
This last month, Miss started doing some weird things.
Take yesterday for example.
While I was meticulously training on Miss's lap, Miss took a cucumber, sliced it into small pieces put it on her eyes and fell asleep!
I have no idea why she wastes food like this...

To see Miss acting normally is actually quite unusual.
I wonder if something happened.

"You have worked hard, Miss Latifa." My mai- Princess Senu says and hands me a towel.
"Awu!" I nod at her. My mai- Princess Senu got better at being a maid. She will quickly overtake me at this rate.

Even though I'm her senior when it comes to being a maid, I will soon loose to her.
I need to ask Sophia for some special lecture later!

"Awu..." I open the book and try reading the next technique, however Miss pushes on my hand and forces me to close the book.
"Awu, Awu?" What's the matter, Miss?
"For the next technique, you need to become one with your element, Latifa. So, before you start that technique you need to meditate and-"

The sandy ring around my pinky interrupts Miss's words as it streams on the ground before me and steadily builds a sandy sculpture.

"Awuawuawu!" Elder Sister Sand!

It's Elder Sister Sand...!
Where have you been until now?
I haven't heard from you for a month, you know?!
I was worried because I was forced out without being able to tell you!

The sandy sculpture puts its hand on my head then disperses back to the ring.

"This..."
"Awu!" That's Elder Sister Sand, Miss!

I exclaim with a smile.
