Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Leona had many visitors today, so she hurriedly changed her clothes before stepping out to greet them.

Helen noticed Leona's rosy complexion, and felt relieved. It seemed Leona was doing just fine, and her cheeks were even brighter than her own. After the formal greetings, Helen took a seat. Upon inquiring, she learned that Leona had just finished practicing martial arts with Alana.

Helen grumbled inwardly. It was true what people said-spend some time with martial artists, and even proper young women would be throwing punches.

Leona chuckled awkwardly. "I was feeling a bit bored and thought I'd join Alana for some training, but I don't think I can reach that level of elegance to show off at any events."

As usual, Helen was blunt and said, "Martial arts itself is hardly elegant and fit for high society, so you shouldn't worry about that. Just do what makes you happy."

Gillian cleared her throat loudly.

Didn't Helen feel awkward saying that? Most of the people present were martial artists!

Helen glared at Gillian. "Stop that. I didn't say anything wrong. It's true martial arts aren't really fit for refined settings, but not everything has to be. Martial arts is practical. It keeps one healthy and helps one protect oneself. Leona, I support you in practicing it." Leona blushed slightly, and said, "Thank you for your support, Aunt Helen. But honestly, I didn't do much. I just followed along and got a bit sweaty, which felt nice."

"Right. A good sweat can do wonders for your body," Helen said as she nodded sagely, trying to appear wise.

Yet the truth was, Helen disliked swearing and physical activities. She couldn't stand the sticky feeling, nor the way her clothes would cling and smell after a workout.

Rafael glanced at Alana, impressed by her method. No matter how heavy his heart felt, a good session of practicing martial arts could help him vent and feel better. He had experienced it firsthand.
