Well. One might be able to help you with that. If one is so inclined of course.

... Have your injuries healed enough?

[At least, if she understands what he's suggesting correctly.]

They have. I didn't break anything like my Meister so I healed faster.

Ah... I wouldn't mind a sparring round then.

Should we use actual steel or wooden blades?

Wooden blades for now if you don't mind.

*Alucard procures a few wooden blades for them both. He selects one that's more European in style.*

[Naoto prepares her stance, waiting for Alucard.]

*Alucard looks down at the much smaller Naoto. He decides he'll need to rein in some of his strength so he doesn't hurt her. No offense, Naoto, but Alucard is stronger than he looks.*

Have at you! *He lashes out toward her head.*

[She dodges, analyzing. He's stance and style are different. Figures due to his sword; it's a Western-style of swordplay than what Kujaku has taught her. This will be interesting.]

*Alucard's style of swordplay was learned from fighting the thousands of monsters that roam Castlevania. It's turned him into a relentless kind of swordsman, willing to take risks. If he can't swipe at her head, he'll try something else. A foot, her shin, an unprotected side.*

[And she'll do what she can to avoid being hit. Dodge, block, and go for a counter strike.]

*This is good. She can dodge well and has skill. So Alucard doesn't hold back as much on his strength.*

[That's fine with her. She can take a few hits.]

*This is beneficial for Alucard. Being a Weapon, he sometimes lacks being able to fight someone in his own form. Naoto is quite a tenacious fighter for someone claiming to be a beginner.*

[She learns fast, but has to master it. That was a close one...]

*Alucard manages to block one of her strikes and push back with full force, forgetting his pledge to hold back.*

[She does stumble at that, but regains her footing in a second.]

One admires your tenacity. *So have a full force swing!*

[She blocks, but winces. That hurt.]

*The dhampir holds back his sword for a moment. He doesn't want to injure his opponent!* Lady Naoto? Do you wish to continue?

[Definitely stronger than a normal person even with the BREW dampening their abilities]

... Yes, we can continue.

*You don't know the half of it!*

Very well. *Perhaps he should try holding back again. This is a fight more to train his fellow Agency detective and not beat her into a pulp.*

[No, she doesn't.]

[Either way, the sparring match continues, Naoto moving in for another attempt to strike.]

*And Alucard is there, enthusiastically blocking the attack with one of his own. It's so hard for him to hold back when someone is trying their very hardest in a fight.

Unfortunately, the dhampir didn't pick a heavy enough wooden sword to work with his level of strength because as soon as he attacks, there's a cracking sound from his blade. He has the grace to look a little embarrassed.*
