Sword Art Online: Faithful Hymn

Chapter 12: Hobbies Alike

After Geography and free time are over, it's time to go to the lesson Shoji is the most excited about: P.E. Since Shoji is rather athletic and definitely not weak due to his basketball training, he always is excited to attend P.E. Not only is the sport they will do today something he looks forward to, Shoji also has no idea what kind of outfit Yuna will wear. Since Yuna is able to change outfits with a single swipe and tap, he hopes that she will do that where no one can see her do that.

Once Shoji is done changing into his sport clothing, he walks into the sports hall, where everyone has to run at least three rounds around the hall to warm up. After running one and a half round, he can hear someone close behind him. Since Shoji isn't a huge fan of people beating him in sports, he runs faster and faster, yet the sound of footsteps won't fade away. In fact ,they become louder as he runs faster. When Shoji has to run slower in order to catch his breath, he notices that the one beating him in sprinting wasn't the ordinary person. Quite the contrary actually, it was Yuna who caught op to him.

"Yun... Ruby? How are you able to run so fast?", Shoji asks her quite shockingly. Yuna, who winks at him tells him without holding back. "I assume that is how I got designed, with the legs of a true athletic! I also had a hard time catching up with you. Dang, you run so fast!", Yuna responds to him.

With Shoji being out of breath and Yuna being just fine, she increases her speed to surpass Shoji. Once Yuna is about 3 meters in front of Shoji, he is able to see her sports outfit perfectly. Like Shoji expected, she exposes quite a lot of skin. It's the same thing that was the case with Yuna's signature idol outfit. Overall, Yuna wears a purple sport bra, together with a short pair of sport pants. With her waist exposed, she shows that she has a great hourglass figure. Also, her hair is divided in two parts, both further tied up in two tails. This would grant her better mobility, as well as less warmth during sport. After everyone is done changing into their sport clothing, as well as running three rounds around the hall, the P.E. teacher debuts.

"Welcome everyone to today's training. We got a new student among us today, so please give Ruby here a warm welcome.", says the teacher with a relaxed voice. And just like the teacher commanded the other students to do, everyone around Shoji and Yuna start to applaud her. Yuna, who surely likes the attention, also knows that she has to be cautious with the attention she receives. It's unknown when someone will start to recognize her appearance, based on Yuuna.

"Today we will be playing competitions. There will be 10 different objectives to do at each obstacle in the gym hall. At the obstacle you are positioned, together with your partner because you will have to work together here, you will have to make as many points as possible. Once we're done, we will count the total amount of points, resulting in a final mark."

When Shoji looks at Yuna to see if she understands what they have to do, the girl nods at him, accepting the task. With 20 people being ready for their tasks, everyone can be perfectly divided among all the objectives at their obstacles. Shoji and Yuna start at the push-up area, where they have to do as many push ups as they can in one minute.

"Once the timer starts, you may start doing your objective. Your partner will write down how many times you did your task.", says the teacher. After quickly discussing who will go first, you decide it's best that Shoji starts first so that Yuna can mimic what exactly she has to do. One Shoji's ready to perform what he's best at, the teacher starts counting down.

"3... 2... 1.... GO!"

As soon as the P.E. gives the signal, Shoji starts to lift himself up and down with the help of his arms. Yuna, who is spectating the boy, is amazed by the speed Shoji is able to perform this tough task with. While he is doing push-ups, Shoji can't help but to pant in the process. After 30 seconds, as well as 30 push-ups, his forehead starts to sweat, resulting in him having to take a short break.
