After finishing the stretches, Eris-san and I once again received an explanation from Namir-san about the equipment and facilities.[Now then, let me give you a brief explanation. First, regarding the equipment in this room, please try using it without activating any Body Reinforcement Magic. Since many Humans are unable to use magic, the equipment in this room has been designed based on the physical capabilities of a body without enhancement. The equipment in the other room, on the other hand, is meant to be used while under the effects of Body Reinforcement Magic. The order will be to first try the equipment in this room, and then, after using Body Reinforcement Magic, move on to the equipment in the other room.]
It was only natural, but the presence or absence of Body Reinforcement Magic had a massive impact on physical ability. For example, if Hina-chan used Body Reinforcement Magic, she could shatter even a massive boulder with her bare hands, but if we had an arm-wrestling match without enhancement, I would probably win.
That was how significant the effect of Body Reinforcement Magic was, so it made sense that there would be equipment tailored to each condition. As expected of Frea-san, it seemed everything had been prepared with consideration for how magic is learned and used in the Human Realm.
[Ill assist you during the trial, so if anything becomes dangerous, Ill step in immediately. Please dont worry. If you have no questions, well start by having you lightly run on the equipment over there.]
[Im good.]
[I have no issues either.]
[Then, this way please Step on top of this and activate the magic tool. The surface beneath your feet will begin to move, so please run in accordance with it. Touch the red magic crystal to accelerate, the blue one to decelerate, and if you wish to stop, touch the crystal at the front labeled stop.]
The first thing we were guided to was essentially a treadmill-like magic tool. Eris-san and I exchanged a quick glance and nodded, then started it up, running at a light jogging pace.
Since I regularly jog with Hina-chan, I was fairly used to running, and at this slower speed, it was easy enough.
[How is it?]
[It feels good. The footing is stable and easy to run on, and the pace is fine though if possible, it might be better to add handrails on the sides, so theres something to grab if someone is about to fall.]
[I see, Ill take that into consideration. How about you, Eris-jou?]
[Ive used a similar magic tool before, but this one makes speed adjustments easier. Also, the fact that it gradually slows down instead of stopping abruptly is excellent from a safety standpoint. If I had to suggest something, people will likely use this for extended periods, so having a way to check the time perhaps a clock on that wall over there would be helpful.]
While lightly running, we shared our impressions and any points of concern. From what Eris-san said, it seemed that treadmill-like magic tools already existed, so this was likely an improved version tailored for gym use.
In practice, it was quite well-made. I didnt really need one since I jog with Hina-chan regularly, but having something like this at home could help with a lack of exercise. Mom and Dad had mentioned they werent getting enough exercise lately, so maybe I could buy one for them.
Given the size of my house, it wouldnt be a problem at all
After that, we continued with a light jog for about 15 minutes before stopping the magic tool and stepping off. The speed had been on the slower side, so it wasnt overly exhausting, but after running for that long, a decent amount of sweat had formed. As I wiped my face with the towel Namir-san had brought, I took out two wooden cups and a sports drink from my Magic Box.
[Eris-san, if youd like, please have a drink. I also have straws, so feel free to use one if needed.]
[Thank you What is this drink?]
[Its called a sports drink, something that helps you efficiently replenish fluids and nutrients after exercise. Alice made this, but this is also something sold commercially. It seems to be popular among adventurers.]
[Sports drink huh, I wasnt aware such a beverage existed, I clearly have more to learn. It has a refreshing taste and is very easy to drink.]
[It only just started being sold recently after all.]
The sports drink that Alice had created at Hina-chans persistent request ended up being well-received by Lilia-san and the others. Thanks to that, Alice used her own connections to begin general distribution, and it had become quite popular among adventurers.
That said, since it had only just begun circulating widely, it wasnt surprising that Eris-san didnt know about it yet.
[Come to think of it, Frea-san seemed to really like it too.]
[Yes, once the gym officially opens, we plan to sell sports drinks at the shop inside the facility as well. Apparently, the boss personally went to negotiate with Phantasmal King-sama and secured a contract, so well be able to receive a steady supply Weve been drinking it regularly during training too! Ive also heard its popular among the War Kings subordinates, so its apparently a bit scarce right now. Since our boss acted early though, were getting priority shipments.]
It sounded like the deal had become much larger than expected, Alice was probably thrilled. Even though back when Hina-chan begged her to make it, she acted like it was quite bothersome
Serious-senpai : [T- Thats strange Eris is getting along peacefully with Kaito without suffering from stomachache. T- This makes her seem just like a heroine]
? ? ? : [Arent the Stomachache Warriors, led by Lilia-san, actually quite suited to being heroines? After all, theyre generally people who have a high level of affection from Kaito-san]
