by _rinnnieI wasn’t the only one who learned something from yesterday’s sparring. Surprisingly, Ye Ilhoo seemed to have picked up something from me as well, as his attack style was sharper than before.2bc3d2779499b4e7
For instance, 2c42dbba3b being right-handed, 84b83590b6 I had 704b32c917 a tendency fb2cf07484 to have 7d562587ba a narrower a5ea8b0432 view on a76757380f my left 5976ac03d5 side. Unlike yesterday, Ye 57f818a7f0 Ilhoo keenly noticed d0740cf650 this and continuously 295fb39172 fired flames at 3d1edcbc7d my weak side.da63c58830790f80

The current 9e361c0368 body of 2b4bc76b12 Kang Baram a3f173e7c1 wasn’t bad. Mid-170s in height, 256f4f4530 slender build, but 54e30ac7c3 with well-toned muscles a473ffab63 from being a 3ebd996472 hunter.8bb7932864a6366b
However, thinking 321e452a80 of my ef983bf1be previous body, 490ff80204 which was 0e1d303b3e 187cm with b4a2b28fe6 solid muscles, e9c24f3fa8 I couldn’t 596e113198 help but b1732f0941 feel a a6418436f7 bit regretful.

While I 36be84bcae was momentarily 8ffa7281e2 lost in 42355376dc thought, I afc6bd55e5 realized Ye 8dc6dbcd59 Ilhoo had 6a53f1e8c9 suddenly closed 893845c363 the distance cf251785ed between us.
