Chapter 31. I like female knights (3) I didn't have enough time to rent a training ground, so I decided to simply compete in the flower garden where I used to play.
The two of them had already finished preparing while I went to get the popcorn.
“hmm? Are there any rules?”
“I don’t think there is any need for it.
Are you Arel? What would you like to do?”
“...do both in moderation.”
Although I encouraged it, it seems that both of them were quite motivated.
“Show your skills only where you don’t get hurt.”
At my request, the two nodded.
Apparently, both of them seemed to be proud of their skills, so at first I stopped them from trying to bring weapons for combat.
Anyway, it's too far!
Even the male knights aren't as aggressive as this.
“Arel-sama says that, but for now, I'll look into your hands too.
Maybe I have more practical experience?”
Each of Seina's limbs, which is confident and warming up, is filled with moderately soft handcuffs and greaves.
Originally, they used iron, but the ones they wear now are specially made for sparring.
Unusually, it seemed that fighting was the main specialty.
“It doesn't matter. I am also confident in my skills. And I don't think I'm proud of being around.”
Asha, who responds in a calm atmosphere, is holding a long stick.
When I asked, it seems that they originally used long spears.
They're both knights, but they don't seem to be using swords.
After all, it's a preconceived notion that a knight must use a sword.
I already knew it from the documents, but seeing it in person, it definitely looked unusual.
There is no doubt that these two are quite unusual cases among knights.
....Did I pick a pretty special species?
“Again, do it in moderation. Understand'?”
I asked again just in case.
No way.... They're not kids, so they won't really fight, right?
I was a little nervous.
“then? Does it start when I clap?”
I spread my arms wide.
Both of them stand silently and stare at each other.
....Aren't you both too serious?
Well, as a knight, you will have pride, so there is nothing you can't understand.
“start!”
As I clapped, they both charged at each other.
First, Asha's arm moves quickly, and the wooden spear she's holding stretches out in a straight line.
Contrary to the fragile impression, it is a stab with considerable power.
It had the momentum to pierce a wooden spear or a rock lightly.
It was a blow with such speed that it was inevitable to take it even with my eyes open, but Seina was unmistakably staring at it.
‘Can you see it? Do you have good eyes?'
He was reading the opponent's attack with his eyes, not his senses.
It's almost wild animal-level kinetic vision.
Seina twists her body to the side and narrowly avoids the tip of the spear.
Then he hit the spear handle with his fist and threw it to the side.
My hands are pretty quick.
When the two weapons collided, the auras of the two collided, and a blue light flashed for an instant.
“oh!'?”
When the trajectory of the spear was distorted, a gap was created.
If there is a certain amount of reach, the window is advantageous, but if there is even a slight gap.
“It is an opportunity.”
Seina quickly closed the gap by using the elasticity of her slender leg muscles.
If you narrow it down to close range, she who specializes in free fighting will have an advantage.
‘But...
I can't help but watch the two of them fight.
Asha's face, which must have been stabbed, was extremely cold.
not agitated in the slightest
Before Seina's fist hit Asha's torso directly, Asha moved the other end of the spear and hit the handcuffs precisely.
Did you stop it in a hurry?
However, due to the nature of the spear, it is difficult to do more than this at such close range.
or not? Are there any other numbers?
Asha's next action was unexpected.
Instead of attacking with a spear, he fired a kick directly at Seina.
However, compared to Seina's fighting skills, the level is one level lower.
Seina skillfully guarded with both arms and stepped back.
“Isn’t it too much to just hold a spear and kick?”
“I don’t think there’s any particular reason why I heard that from you.”
Seina, who is absurd, and Asha, who flows casually.
The two of them seem to have raised their fighting spirit again, and the strength of their auras has increased compared to just before.
This means that from now on, both are in serious mode.
....This is a bit risky. It seems that the fire has been properly ignited.
“There!”
As I ran to stop them, the two of them relaxed at the same time.
“Can I show you some more?”
“it's okay. That's enough.”
...And if I let it go any longer, I think I'll really get into trouble.
“I fully grasped the skills of the two of them.”
“???? yes?”
I am puzzled by the meaning of understanding.
“I think both of you still have a lot to improve on.”
“Is it an improvement?”
“that's right. For example, Asha is surprisingly impatient because she focuses on speed, and Seina seems to be a little timid, perhaps because she is fighting.”
My point was that both of them had dumbfounded faces.
“...Come to think of it, I heard that it was Arel-sama who guided the second princess according to rumors?”
Maybe Asha? muttering with a feeling of
“huh. It's true.”
That's right, I raised Kania noona.
Both of them seemed to know that Nuna's arrival at Aura Expert was famous even among knights.
“Did you ask us to show your skills to guide us?”
“however? Now that you've become my escort, you have to become stronger.
Or do you hate it?”
You're not going to say that you won't be able to receive my teaching, right?
But how they heard my joke, both shook their heads and shook their heads at the same time.
“It can’t be.”
“I just thought it would be a nuisance to Arel-sama.”
“If that’s the case, it’s fine.”
I'm leading my escort, so I'm going to lose money and be nabal.
Rather, from my point of view, it is an advantage.
While guiding the older female knights with these hands, hehehehe.
Do not omit more than this.
Anyway. The two didn't seem to have much of a complaint about my map, so I just pointed out the previous move and briefly talked about what I was going to teach.
“indeed??????
“As expected, it is Arel-nim.”
They are both listening intently to what I am teaching.
I can sense a strange respect in their eyes.
* * *
“It's not exactly as rumored.”
Seina burst into admiration in a relaxed tone as usual.
I've heard rumors about Arell.
There are some things that I'm interested in knowing as a lord who needs to be escorted in the future, but before that, rumors about him are already quite famous.
A genius who is good at all kinds of learning, and a young wise man who raised the second princess, Kania Ernesia, to the level of an expert.
“Isn’t it?”
Of course, where her words were directed, Asha stood there without saying a word.
After the escort in the morning, the two were talking to each other in the lounge located in the palace.
The feeling of being friends working in the same workplace.
And it was a conversation with the feeling of lightly sharing feelings about the owner.
If I had to say it as an impression, it would be more like a tribute to Arell.
“…Maybe.”
As Seina continued to chatter, Asha finally muttered a short, reluctant voice.
It's not a good habit to carelessly criticize the owner you attend, but I sympathized with Seina's opinion.
To think that he would take an interest in the escort knight's skills and improve them himself.
In general, it is difficult to imagine.
In that sense, the youngest prince, Arell, is a truly unique lord.
Approach the escort driver first and pay attention.
That's usually not possible.
“Hmm? Asha doesn’t usually talk much?”
“Is that how you talk? Are you acting on purpose?”
Although I said it in a half-sarcastic way.
I guess it wasn't conveyed properly to Seina.
“I was originally from a remote area, so these are the words I learned in the military.”
“???? okay?”
I guess so.
Asha nodded her head, as if she wasn't very interested in her colleague's background.
“Still, be careful not to act too rude to Arell.”
“no way? I know.”
Saying not to worry, Seina waved her hand.
Did you really understand?
Well, it doesn't matter.
This side only has to faithfully carry out the mission as it is.
It's enough just to do your part.
Thinking so, Asha sighed quietly.
* * *
After a month, the two of them's skills improved much more than before.
The quality of the aura was also greatly improved through the technique I improved.
However, since they are knights, they cannot teach as much as they teach the royal family.
If a knight learns a technique that is more efficient than that of royalty, that will become a problem.
For that reason, it was only to the extent of improvement.
So, unlike the royal family, I couldn't immediately jump over the rank.
However, compared to before, the skill has definitely improved.
In particular, what I taught the most was the combat skills of the two.
In Seina's case, she was taught to be flexible and strong so that she could use the characteristics of her developed muscles as much as possible, and in Asha's case, she was improved so that she could use fast and sharp spearmanship to prevent her opponent from approaching within the gap.
“How can I thank Arell-nim for his kindness…
” “Ahaha. I don’t think this will be worth a lifetime.”
Both were genuinely thrilled.
It's everyone's wish to become stronger than a knight.
I can't help but admire you for making it come true.
“are you okay. The stronger my escort is, the safer I am.”
Of course, I also don't show off on purpose, but this is how to become a respected boss.
Grace is bestowed but not shown.
I am merciful.
I am a big man.
Receive my grace.
In fact, I didn't even bother at all.
As I was guiding them on their posture, there were times when I naturally held and corrected the bodies of two people with my own hands.
I also enjoyed it.
....of course, I kept saying this in my mind.
In any case, both of them have received my teaching, respect me sincerely, and are loyal to me.
I can hear you.
The sound of two people opening their hearts.
I moved my gaze to the backs of their hands.
On the backs of their hands, there are engravings that only I can see.
I didn't actually draw anything.
that's a sign
It's only visible to my eyes, so no one can notice.
While tutoring the two of them in the practice, I secretly cast spells on them little by little.
It's a kind of psychic.
The effect is nothing.
There is no force that can limit the will of two people.
There's nothing I can't do, but...
I'm not a brute to the extent of doing such a thing.
Just don't betray me.
As long as this sorcery exists, you will not be able to think of betraying me no matter fr𝒐m freew𝒆bnov𝒆l.c(o)m
