"Guhaaaa!"

Nn? Guhaaaa?
What's that sound supposed to mean?
Anyway, thank you very much for your help, Elder Sister Sand!

I thank Elder Sister Sand while looking at my left hand.

"Awu, Awuu? Awu!" What's next, Miss? Bring it on!
"Haa..." Miss sighs? I have no idea why, though.

She takes my left hand and observes it from every angle.
She tilts her head and beckons Sophia to take a look.
Sophia tilts her head and beckons my mai- Princess Senu to take a look.

"Hmmm... How peculiar." Sophia says.
"Indeed." Miss nods.
"Awu?" What's wrong?
"Mmm, Latifa might not know, but you shouldn't be able to keep the form of your element for more than few seconds at your current level." Sophia informs me.
"Awuuu...?" I tilt my head.
"Please, observe and count. I'm peak Martial Master cultivator." My mai- Princess Senu says.

A fire envelops her hand and forms a claws on her fingers.
So Princess Senu's element is fire!
Ah, I should be counting.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5,
15, 16, 17, 18, 19,
37, 38, 39, 4- The fire has disappeared!

"Fuuu... See? This was my limit as a peak Martial Master. Yet Miss Latifa is able to keep the form for minutes even though you are just a Martial Acolyte!" Princess Senu says proudly.

I have no idea why she is talking so proudly, though?

"Indeed, Latifa's relationship with her element is quite peculiar." Sophia says.
"Awu?" Really? I'd like to think that Elder Sister Sand is fond of me, but... Elder Sister Sand is just as hard to figure out as Miss...
"Ehm... Well, you should practice the Elemental Falcon Claw before you get tired." Miss says.
"Awu!" Yes! Let's dooo it!

"Awu Awu Awuu Awuuu Awu!" Elemental Falcon Claw with the secret royal shouting technique!

Bam!

"......"
"......"
"......"
"......"

W, why?!

I shout in my mind while looking at the tree.
It's not even scratched!
I wouldn't be even able to pick flowers with this attack power!
Is this because I used the secret technique used only by the royal family?!
Is this my punishment?!

"Awu!" Again!

This time without using the secret shouting technique!
Please forgive me, royal ancestors. I didn't mean to use the technique without your permission!
Really!

"Awuu!"

Boom!

"......"
"......"
"......"
"......"

See! I told you it was because of the secret technique!
Miss, this technique is no good!
I, Latifa, the servant of Miss Meira Maed swear to never use that technique ever gain.
Therefore, please forgive me, royal ancestors!

"Awuu..." I sigh and look at the tree with five finger-sized holes.

I take a peek behind the tree, but the tree behind it is undamaged.
"Awuuu..." What was I thinking? How could I be strong as Miss? I got carried away again. Stupid, Latifa. Courting a death!
If I get so cocky just because of some small holes in the tree, I will one day pay for my arrogance.

"Latifa." Miss says slowly.
"Awu!" See! I was right.
"Let's cultivate!"

Miss grabs my hand and drags me away.
