Chapter 160: Creeping Risk

After getting invited to the coaching that Julia did on a regular basis in at present early morning, we went to the forest spreading beside the fort. I assumed that it will be achieved within the coaching floor of the fort, however the place that Julia launched was an open house cleared by the bushes. Nevertheless, it wasn’t a foul place to coach. Since I couldn’t really feel any indicators of individuals, this place was in all probability a secret coaching floor for Julia. By the way, a few of us have been nonetheless sleepy. It wasn’t actually essential to deliver everybody, so those that got here with me have been Emilia and Reus.

Whereas being watched by the siblings, Julia and I have been dealing with one another on the middle of the open house.

“I didn’t anticipate to have a match with you. It’s as a result of I assumed I couldn’t battle you except I defeated Reus first.” (Julia)

“It’s totally different if Aniki says so.” (Reus)

“Aah… it’s onerous to say this, however Reus decides that arbitrarily. Really, there is no such thing as a such a rule.” (Sirius)

“What!? Effectively, I’ve no grievance if I get to battle you after preventing Reus.” (Julia)

“Extra importantly, are you alright with that? I imply I can present you a mock match between me and Reus first…” (Sirius)

I had already seen Julia’s actions, in order that suggestion got here up as a result of it won’t be honest for her, however she shook her head with a refreshing smile.

“It’s tremendous. I’m used to such issues, and above all, I feel it’s extra enjoyable to battle in opposition to the individual I see for the primary time.” (Julia)

Did that imply it was pure to know my actions since she was a well-known individual to the purpose of being known as as Sword Princess? Effectively, that was on prime of being the princess of Sandor. In addition to, she appeared to have the intention to enhance by pushing herself to the nook. I felt a bit sophisticated, however since she requested for it, I’d fulfill her expectation.

“How concerning the guidelines?” (Sirius)

“It’s much like yesterday. It’ll be a trouble if we don’t begin this shortly, so let’s begin this immediately.” (Julia)

She was in all probability speaking about Common Fort. He was definitely a loud individual, however that was additionally a proof that he was involved about Julia. Since he was that sort of individual, she didn’t actually need to act chilly towards him.

Whereas bitterly smiling inside by imagining that man was in search of Julia about this time, I declared that I used to be prepared and arrange the wood sword.

“For the battle sign, because the outdated man isn’t right here, Reus will–…” (Julia)

“That won’t be obligatory. I’ll match with Julia-sama’s timing.” (Sirius)

“What?” (Julia)

The siblings, who had been watching, seen that I used to be severe after I was a half-body distance away from the opposite celebration and from my posture of hiding one hand from her view. Julia was wanting unhappy since she needed to make the primary transfer, however she seen that she was unsuitable by the intimidation I unleashed.

“I suppose you aren’t going straightforward, proper?” (Julia)

“I’ve seen the yesterday match, so I’m not going to be careless, .” (Sirius)

“I see… I’m going to take pleasure in this!” (Julia)

Whereas saying so, Julia kicked the bottom. She swung the wood sword on the decrease part whereas leaping into my bosom. I prevented it by retreating to the rear, however Julia modified her motion in the course of decrease swing, and he or she leaped to chase after me. To start out the match with this… it was a substantial unconventional blow. So, I hit the tip of the protruding wood sword and divert its trajectory. It grazed my cheek whereas stabbed the sky.

“If that hits, will probably be deadly damage even with a wood sword.” (Sirius)

“I don’t need to be advised by you once you divert it simply. Then, how about this one?” (Julia)

Because the blow of greeting ended, I used to be attacked with surging waves of gradual and quick paced sword swings that have been proven throughout her match in opposition to Reus, however I may deal with it by repelling with the wood sword and twisting my physique to evade. These exchanges continued for nearly thirty seconds, however when Julia felt one thing misplaced, she took a distance instantly.

“…Are you aiming for openings as a substitute of simply evading them?” (Julia)

“So, you seen that.” (Sirius)

What I did was a way that induced the opponent to assault with a purpose to create gaps. In fact, there have been risks in doing so, nevertheless it was straightforward to evade if I knew the place the assaults got here. This method was to counter battle specialists who aimed for very important factors by intuition… In different phrases, it was additionally a way that might be used if the opponents fought by utilizing instinct like Reus. As for being induced, an opponent may discover that was the intention, and it appeared that Julia had seen it.

“In that case, shall I modify the way in which of preventing!?” (Julia)

Despite the fact that none of her assaults hit within the exchanges earlier, Julia didn’t grew to become flustered however as a substitute she laughed as if she was having enjoyable.

When Julia made a bitter smile that appeared fairly much like Lior-Jiisan, I noticed that her stance and presence modified.

“Hahaha! To brilliantly keep away from my assault… you’ve made me need to hit at any expense!” (Julia)

No… slightly than fairly comparable, she was nearly the identical sort of folks. That sentence simply now was nearly much like that Jii-san. Though Julia was attacking and laughing whereas the pointless issues went by her head, her actions have been clearly modified not like the earlier actions. The surging waves of assaults that aiming for opponent assault have been executed by intuition. Like earlier, the assaults have been assessed and I handled it by mixing between protection and feint. I continued avoiding the assaults as preparatory steps to regularly decelerate the opponent, Julia was smiling as if she remembered one thing.

“Good! It’s my first time that my sword doesn’t hit in any respect!” (Julia)

“To be delighted by that…” (Sirius)

“Why not? It’s enjoyable, !” (Julia)

I didn’t need to say something about the way in which people stay, however was it an excessive amount of to suppose that I didn’t need her to be much like that Jii-san? I had a sense that she would get alongside shortly with him. Anyhow, Julia was very excited, however the sword was swung with accuracy and tranquility. She was terrifying girl in some ways.

On this approach, we aimed for openings and this continued for some time. Nevertheless, it was Julia who misplaced the steadiness. Julia crouched to evade the blow aiming for her flank, however then, she aimed for my proper foot with low swing. I instantly raised my proper foot and swung down the wood sword towards her unprotected again, however Julia shortly launched a thrust from crouched posture.

Though it wasn’t tough to keep away from if it was a blow of pointy assault, her intention wasn’t me. Julia didn’t miss that slight delay in response. She exactly stabbed the deal with of my wood sword, and it was blown to the air. Repelling weapons was a way I usually do, however this was the primary time it was achieved to me. She didn’t present that motion yesterday. It appeared she had grown up from the match in opposition to Reus.

“Obtained you!” (Julia)

I didn’t anticipate that she realized a lot from a single mock battle. I spontaneously smiled at that scary expertise, and within the meantime, Julia was approaching to ship the ultimate blow. That second when she swung a blow, which I had been avoiding till now, and with out a trace of negligence…

“You continue to have lengthy strategy to go!” (Sirius)

“Wha!?” (Julia)

By growing my focus to the restrict, I grasped the swung wood sword between the palms of my palms. This was known as stopping a sword stroke between naked palms. Julia in all probability didn’t anticipate the sword was stopped with naked palms. In that perturbed opening, I twisted my wrist and snatched the wood sword. Then, I pointed the tip straight at her throat.

“It’s over with this… proper?” (Sirius)

“Kuhh!? Muuu…” (Julia)

She appeared unwilling to be stopped, however she couldn’t say something may be as a result of she felt disagreeable with the throat. As Julia continued to really feel conflicted, she admitted defeat when the wood sword that had been blown to the sky fell behind me whereas sighing on the similar time.

“Haa… I gave up, you fully had me. You weren’t solely stopping my sword with naked palms, you additionally snatched it away.” (Julia)

“I assumed that I couldn’t get by with common strategies, so I needed to attempt some intelligent schemes.” (Sirius)

The battle might be concluded a bit sooner if I used offensive magic, however since I judged this as a mock battle primarily based on swords, I didn’t use it as I needed to be thoughtful with the state of affairs. From expertise, there was a excessive risk she would settle for it obediently if I achieved victory in that strategy to those that most well-liked to assault from the entrance identical to her.

Nevertheless, since her sword strategies have been higher than mine, it was fairly onerous to seek out openings. I used to be satisfied that the distinction in energy wouldn’t change a lot the course of the battle after clashing together with her swords many instances. Even with the stopping with naked palms which grew to become the important thing of victory, I used to be fairly overwhelmed. Except for that, within the case of Reus, he was pushed out by drive even when he may perceive her strategies.

After that, I gave again the wood sword to her. After I collected my wood sword, Julia talked to me with an sad expression.

“It was a really significant battle, however I want to say this a lot. I’m tremendous with Reus, however why are you each going straightforward to that diploma?” (Julia)

It was in all probability an vital level, however she appeared unable to simply accept that she was stopped. I heard from Princess Lifell that individuals have been going straightforward on her as a result of she was handled as a lady, so I needed to clarify it correctly as a result of I additionally had the circumstances.

“Reus grew to become stronger as a result of he desires to guard people who find themselves vital. So he naturally will cease except it’s essential to kill. If he’s not a person who can’t alter his power, you must already know what would occur because you had a match with him, Julia-sama.” (Sirius)

“…Aah. His sword is easy sufficient to the purpose it feels comfy.” (Julia)

“In my case, I’ve many strategies which can be too harmful for use in mock battles. Though it isn’t obligatory, I simply don’t need to wreck my opponents.” (Sirius)

“What did you say!?” (Julia)

Julia understood Reus’ purpose, however she glared at me as if it was disagreeable. Effectively, I used to be like saying that I needed to go straightforward on her. So, it will be pure for her to get offended primarily based on her character. However…

“Though we used restricted strategies, I used to be no less than preventing you significantly, ?” (Sirius)

“Are you being severe if you find yourself not utilizing your strategies!?” (Julia)

“Julia-sama… on the finish of the day, that is only a mock battle. I want to apologize for being impolite, however it’s only a matter of your thoughts to suppose that persons are going straightforward on you as a result of you’re a girl.” (Sirius)

Proper now, any person wanted to inform that clearly to her. There was nobody who may firmly inform her so as a result of she had turn into sturdy sufficient to face on the prime of the nation whereas being a princess. She was nonetheless immature as a result of she couldn’t disguise her anger when folks have been going straightforward. Which was why I assumed I needed to level this out to her. She may surpass me ultimately, however as an individual who had ambition to that diploma, it wouldn’t be straightforward to interrupt the partitions made by folks with ego.

“This additionally what had occurred yesterday, isn’t it? Plus, I heard from Lifell-sama why you don’t like that. However, Julia-sama… you must perceive instantly if the opponent is severe, proper?” (Sirius)

“…Aah, sure.” (Julia)

“Don’t be swept away by the recollections of the previous, and you must belief that sense solid by you. In the event you muster your thoughts and collect expertise by preventing in opposition to varied opponents to any extent further… I consider that you’ll turn into stronger, Julia-sama.” (Sirius)

It might be powerful to grasp from the standpoint of a princess, however she would prone to develop a lot as soon as she knew how massive the world was. Julia nodded as if she was satisfied with the recommendation whereas considering that Reus can be a great rival for her.

“I see… I’ve to muster my thoughts, is it? You’re the first one who stated such a factor to me.” (Julia)

“In fact. In any case, I gained in opposition to you.” (Sirius)

“Muuu!?” (Julia)

Julia frowned when she look my provocative smile, however she instantly laughed after that. As I anticipated, it appeared she responded equally to that Strongest Sword outdated man.

“Hahaha! It’s true, the one that misplaced shouldn’t retort again, proper? It doesn’t matter what I say, it is not going to change the truth that you’re stronger than me for now.” (Julia)

“Nevertheless, your sword strategies have far exceeded my expectations. I used to be actually shocked by your correct sword strategies and motion that anticipate forward.” (Sirius)

“I nonetheless can’t win with these but. Subsequent time, I’ll cross that expectations much more and I’ll win.” (Julia)

I nodded in satisfaction at Julia’s radiant smile.

“…Why isn’t she get offended with Aniki?” (Reus)

“It’s as a result of the distinction in expertise. Along with power, you must be taught extra from Sirius-sama on how to reply to ladies.” (Emilia)

“Uuh!? Bu-but, ladies are tough.” (Reus)

“It’s not good to be weak-minded. Similar to how I devoted my love and loyalty towards Sirius-sama, be a person who could make Marina and Noir-chan dedicated to you.” (Emilia)

“I don’t need Noir and Marina to be such as you, Nee-chan—….” (Reus)

“…” (Emilia)

“I-I imply, I would really like them to be themselves!” (Reus)

Someway, the siblings, who stayed behind the scenes, have been speaking about unusual issues, however… I shouldn’t thoughts about them. If I needed to say personally, there was a attraction for being pure airheaded, and I had a sense that Reus can be tremendous to remain because it was.

Thus, after the mock battle ended, I took care of my physique with water and tower obtained from Emilia. Then, Julia requested me a query whereas I cleaned the sweat.

“Oh sure, I obtained a query. Why Sirius-kun and Reus’ methods of preventing are completely totally different? Aren’t you each a instructor and a pupil?” (Julia)

“I didn’t train sword to Reus.” (Sirius)

“What do you imply?” (Julia)

Since she understood from yesterday battle that Reus’ sword strategies have been Strongest Sword model, it was pure to suppose that I had comparable strategies. Really, within the mock battle earlier, I needed to be cautious to go in opposition to the blows which have been terribly sturdy. In the interim, I advised her the detailed historical past on how I obtained acquainted with Lior-Jiisan and the way Reus realized sword.

“I grew to become considering sword due to Aniki. The sword swung by Aniki was actually wonderful, and I assumed I additionally wished to swing like that.” (Reus)

“I perceive! I additionally really feel the influence on the entire physique when seeing that sword strategies for the primary time. Nevertheless, when you determined to make use of sword, is your instructor Strongest Sword-dono?” (Julia)

“It’s simply that I’ve realized many issues from Aniki, and Lior-Jiichan didn’t actually care.” (Reus)

Most individuals would doubt that the matter with Strongest Sword was actual, however Julia appeared to fully consider it. The proof was in all probability Reus’ talents. After I thought Julia had additionally understood it, she started to have a look at Reus with intense eyes.

“However… I’m jealous with Reus. Strongest Sword-dono appears to have served my nation, however he left attributable to some circumstances earlier than I used to be born. Even so, he determined to journey to coach his sword strategies or one thing.” (Julia)

If I wasn’t mistaken… Jii-san left the nation as a result of… his disciple was killed by a jealous noble, nevertheless it appeared that info was hid for the comfort.

“If I have been there at the moment, I’d completely maintain him again… No, I’d in all probability observe him simply to be taught sword.” (Julia)

“I feel it will be higher to cease that.” (Reus)

In that Jii-san’s case, slightly than educating sword, he would assault her with sword as a substitute. Relatively than disciples who obediently realized what he thought, it was stated that he can be happier having disciples challenged him with murderous intention. I’m wondering what sort of face she would make if she knew how irregular that outdated man with sword… No, I supposed she can be delighted.

“It might be unimaginable to be taught by Sword Strongest-dono, however it’s good expertise to battle you each. How about this, Reus? Let’s have one other match with me now?” (Julia)

“I don’t thoughts, however I in all probability must cease my sword once more, ?” (Reus)

“It’s alright since I do know that you simply aren’t that sort of man. I need to know extra about Strongest Sword model, so let’s battle now!” (Julia)

“Hmm… alright. Really, I additionally need to transfer my physique!” (Reus)

His physique was in all probability stressed by wanting on the match between me and Julia. He stood up after getting the wood from me and joyfully stood up earlier than her. The mock battle started as quickly because it was, and after I appeared on the battle of intense clashing swords which was fully totally different from the battle with me, Emilia muttered whereas approaching from the aspect.

“These two are having enjoyable preventing.” (Emilia)

“They’re totally different however their roots are comparable.” (Sirius)

She was a lady who beloved to coach as a result of she was grasping for extra energy. If she wasn’t a princess of Sandor, I’d in all probability invite her to affix our journey. It might be a great stimulus for Reus, and I additionally thought it will be waste for that expertise to be buried in a single nation. Emilia checked out me with a mild smile as if she seen such a trivial battle in me.

“…How about mentioning it to her?” (Emilia)

“Did you perceive that? (Sirius)

“Sure. Not solely Reus, I additionally suppose that you simply have been having enjoyable once you fought her, Sirius-sama. You had eyes that have been wanting ahead to their future, proper?” (Emilia)

“Effectively… sure. What do you suppose, Emilia?” (Sirius)

“Sure, I agree that varied drawback will rise if Julia accompanies our journey. However, I cannot change something that I ought to do.” (Emilia)

Her assist for me wouldn’t change it doesn’t matter what can be the result… With that, I gently patted the smiling Emilia’s head and stated thanks. Then, after I was taking a look at her tail that wagged fortunately, I heard a voice trying to find Julia from a distance. After I rotated, I noticed Common Fort working and he appeared determined.

“Hime-sama! What number of instances I advised you to coach sword within the fort–…” (Fort)

“Hahaha! This method is now not good, is it? You guys are actually enjoyable!” (Julia)

“I’m the identical, you’re completely totally different from Aniki!” (Reus)

“Eiii, once more!? Hime-sama, it’s about time!” (Fort)

They appeared to be absorbed within the battle and didn’t hear him. Since he thought that they wouldn’t cease even when he known as them, he went between them with out hesitation whereas letting out a sigh. Though they have been utilizing wood swords, it was insane to enter between the 2 whom swinging swords like windstorm, however I couldn’t see any hesitation in Fort’s eyes.

Fort, who entered the windstorm of sword clashing, stopped each of their wood swords along with his armguards. To my shock, regardless that the armguards appeared sturdy, not to mention being damage by these two assaults, the steadiness of his physique wasn’t shaken in any respect It didn’t appear to be a showoff when he was known as Common. Was it as a result of Julia was pressured to cease, she glanced at Fort in dissatisfaction as her hand being held.

“I’m slightly intrigued, so what are you doing?” (Julia)

“I’m sorry to spoil the enjoyable, however morning work and breakfast time is approaching. Please return to the fort instantly.” (Fort)

“What!? Is it that point already?” (Julia)

Because the mock battle was brilliantly extended, it appeared it was already breakfast time. She didn’t appear to really feel hungry due to all that enjoyable. On this approach, the morning coaching was concluded, however whereas on the way in which again to the fort, Fort’s lectures continued on.

“My goodness! The attendants have been making noise because you have been within the room from the early within the morning. Please don’t make everybody fear an excessive amount of.” (Fort)

“You’ll cease me if I advised you, proper? Anyhow, I want to battle extra with Sirius-kun and Reus.” (Julia)

“These persons are Sanger-sama’s company. You may’t simply deal with it prefer it’s not a giant deal. Please act extra like a royalty…” (Fort)

Julia turned apart the lectures nonchalantly as if this was one thing she already used to. Alternatively, Reus started to speak in between of such exchanges. He was in all probability involved as a result of his sword was stopped.

“Individuals on this nation are wonderful. I didn’t suppose anybody may cease my blow like that.” (Reus)

“Protection is the very best on this nation. The folks that may penetrate this outdated man protection may be rely with fingers.” (Julia)

“Hime-sama, it’s not good to reward me simply to dodge the problem right here. You too. If in case you have time to consider different folks, you higher prepare your self.” (Fort)

“In fact! However I significantly need to battle Fort-san even as soon as.” (Reus)

“Hmm, it’s unimaginable. Not like you, I at all times busy. However… I’ll give it some thought.” (Fort)

It appeared that he admitted how blunt Reus was. It may be as a result of it was response towards warriors. It might be a great expertise for Reus. After I checked out their retreating figures, I used to be considering that I ought to request the identical factor.

—

“Aah, welcome again.” (Reese)

“Welc–…” (Karen)

After bidding farewell to Julia and Fort, we returned to our room and the 2 who greeted us have been Karen, who was sitting on a chair with sleepy eyes, and Reese, who stood behind her. Reese was combing Karen’s hair with a brush to groom her, however she appeared to be struggling as a result of the half asleep Karen often moved her head.

“Hey, Karen. Everybody has returned, so get up correctly.” (Reese)

“I’m awake–….” (Karen)

“It’s nonetheless no good. Reese, you possibly can depart her to me after this.” (Emilia)

“By the way in which, what occur to Fia-ane?” (Reus)

“…Welcome again.” (Fia)

I heard Fia’s voice which was a bit late, nevertheless it was uncommon for her to nonetheless mendacity on the mattress. Despite the fact that she would get up a bit later, she ought to already get up for very long time at this type of time.

“Are you feeling not nicely?” (Sirius)

“Sure… I feel I drank a bit an excessive amount of. That wine was actually tasty nevertheless it was tolerable, so…” (Fia)

“I perceive that it was scrumptious, however there must be a restrict. Let me contact your brow for a bit.” (Sirius)

“Haa… your palms really feel chilly and it feels good.” (Fia)

After I recognized her by [Scan], the door of the room was knocked. So, I had Reus to deal with it. It was a soldier who led us across the fort yesterday, however he deeply bowed after confirming me.

“Sirius-sama. The breakfast is prepared, so I’ll information you there. Along with that, there’s a message from Zilard-sama.” (Soldier)

In line with the soldier, it was deliberate to have breakfast with Sanger and others, nevertheless it appeared that it grew to become unimaginable after sudden political affairs emerged. Since they’d ready the meals, I accepted the association advised by the soldier earlier than me, however Fia, who heard concerning the breakfast, put her hand on the mouth.

“Uh… I’m sorry, I don’t really feel like consuming very a lot. I’m tremendous with simply water, so that you guys might go forward.” (Fia)

“Anyhow, we are able to’t let Fia to remain alone. Lets cut up up and going to eat breakfast alternately?” (Sirius)

“We have now ready lottery-draw string. The crimson patterned string is for Sirius-sama’s group.” (Soldier)

In that second, I didn’t ask the place the lottery-draw string coming from. In consequence… we determined to eat and cut up into two teams. I went with Emilia since she insisted whereas the remaining Reese and Reus would go first. By the way in which, Karen was nonetheless half asleep, so we left the room. I made a decision to deliver again one thing to eat.

We parted in that association and went to have breakfast. There was no explicit drawback occurred they usually have been happy consuming with such lavish breakfast. No… there was one thing, proper? After Reus and Reese who went first, when Emilia and I went to the eating corridor…

“I-I’m sorry! The bread inventory made for this morning is already nearly…” (?)

“The ten parts of soup ready additionally nearly…” (?)

“Identical goes to the fruits. We’d replenish from the warehouse on the again, so I would really like you to attend for a bit…” (?)

“…We don’t thoughts. Do it as normal.” (Sirius)

I apologized deeply in my coronary heart due to the stares that combined with awe and sorrow by those that served. I used to be blissful for many who have sturdy urge for food, however because it relied on event and time, it will be tough for them.

“These are not so good as Sirius-sama’s, however it’s scrumptious and the seasonings are nicely ready. Can I’ve some extra please?” (Emilia)

“You may’t. We aren’t at their degree, however we additionally must eat nicely.” (Sirius) (Recheck)

The outcome was… we must always have sufficient with remaining parts. This was doubtless to assist the cook dinner a bit, however I ought to whether or not I ought to cook dinner subsequent.

—

We have been invited by Sanger and got here to the fort, however the authentic function was to guard Princess Lifell. Since Sanger wouldn’t be obtainable till afternoon, we returned to our room whereas considering to go to Princess Lifell later, nevertheless it appeared she was already right here.

“Critically. I advised you to not let your guard down. I can’t consider that you simply obtained hangover.” (Lifell)

“It appears I’m extra drained than anticipated. It’s shameful even when I’ve to say it myself.” (Fia)

Princess Lifell was reproaching Fia whereas wanting astounded, however there was no unhealthy feeling. It was pleasant change as in the event that they have been already shut associates. Subsequent to her was Karen. She appeared sleepy and was consuming the breakfast introduced. Reese and Senia have been fastidiously wiping her mouth.

“However it’s uncommon for Fia-san to get hangover, isn’t it?” (Lifell)

“Sure. It’s no more than twice or thrice.” (Fia)

“I feel that it’s apparent to be like this once you drank an excessive amount of. As for me, I gained’t really feel good if I drink greater than two cups.” (Reus)

“I’m not going to drive you, nevertheless it’s higher to get used to alcohol. It’s one thing about how folks take benefit when they’re drunk.” (Sirius)

“Yeah, there is no such thing as a loss if it might probably make me stronger in opposition to alcohol. I’ve drunk with Reese earlier than, however that woman by no means will get drunk in any respect.” (Lifell)

“Eh? Have I drink alcohol with Nee-sama?” (Reese)

“Hey, didn’t I invite you for meals earlier than leaving Elysion? That point.” (Lifell)

If I wasn’t mistaken… Princess Lifell had a secret dinner with Reese as a result of she wished to eat alone together with her sister. However we couldn’t keep in mind something of Reese consuming alcohol, so we have been all tilting our heads.

“Now that you simply point out in, the fruit juice I drank at the moment had an odd style…” (Reese)

“Oh my… you drank the entire thing . After I advised you that was a particular fruit juice that was good for magnificence, you believed and drank it. Nevertheless, removed from having reddening face, you have been strolling usually. I used to be actually shocked.” (Lifell)

“Eh… why did you do this?” (Reese)

“I simply wished to show you the best way to drink alcohol.” (Lifell)

In different phrases, Reese had gotten used to alcohol, however when Princess Lifell displayed regrettable expression for eager to see the looks of drunk Reese or she couldn’t stroll correctly, I supposed that she wished Reese to have an in a single day keep at the moment. Whereas Reese was shocked by the revelation, Princess Lifell, turned away from Fia to me whereas placing her hand on the door of the room.

“Effectively, Sirius has returned, so we shall be going instantly.” (Lifell)

“Are we going? The place to?” (Sirius)

“I advised you yesterday. You guys will study the king, proper?” (Lifell)

Apparently, Princess Lifell had breakfast with Lifell and he or she stated it throughout that point. It was true that I stated I want to examine the situation, however that individual was somebody who had the very best authority within the nation. I assumed that it was inevitable if we have been refused, however I didn’t anticipate the permission got here so quickly. Anyhow, when Julia heard it, she gave fast reply.

In line with Princess Lifell, regardless that she had a sure character, it appeared like she had come to belief us by mock battles.

“Nevertheless, since it’s unimaginable for everybody, it’s restricted to Reese and Sirius.” (Lifell)

“Effectively, it’s apparent. I’m sorry, however…” (Sirius)

“Sure. Please depart Fia-san and Karen to me.” (Emilia)

“If Aniki and Reese-ane go collectively, it would finish quickly. So, I’m going to work out within the room.” (Reus)

“Uuh… please watch out.” (Fia)

“Be safeee—…” (Karen)

“Don’t neglect about Karen.” (Sirius)

Reese and I left the room after being despatched off by everybody. Then, we headed to the king’s bed room led by Princess Lifell. As we went again to the inside a part of the fort, the eyes of the troopers and their males who handed one another grew to become sharper, however Princess Lifell proceeded with out worry. She was really dependable. I heard that the following nook was the place we have been going, however all of a sudden, Fort’s offended voice sounded.

“Why did you permit them!?” (Fort)”

“You don’t must yell too loud. I do know what I’m doing.” (Julia)

Once we secretly appeared into it from the nook, there was a sight that Fort shouted at Julia in entrance of the room which appeared to be the king’s bed room. It appeared like he was significantly offended, however the one who made the choice was Julia, so he in all probability ought to concentrate on it, proper?

“Whereas I perceive that, why do you must permit them? What would you do in the event that they do one thing to the king!?” (Fort)

“What if Father would worsen greater than this? These persons are not those that secretly plan for assassination. I perceive that nicely after I clashed swords with them. There is no such thing as a approach I’ll permit Father to be harmed.” (Julia)

“I perceive your emotions, however…” (Fort)

“I heard from Lifell that Sirius-kun has eyes that may simply see by incurable illnesses. Moreover, the blue hair woman can use glorious remedy magic. She is named Saintess in Elysion. There is no such thing as a hurt to let these two examine Father, am I proper?” (Julia)

“Ughh…” (Fort)

Not like mock battles, Fort couldn’t retort at Julia’s statements and dignity as a royal household. So, he closely nodded as if admitted defeat.

“You don’t have to fret an excessive amount of since you and I’ll watch them. In fact, you’re coming with me.

“Sure. I’m the king’s defend.” (Fort)

“That’s who you’re, outdated man.” (Julia)

Someway, these exchanges jogged my memory of a gathering with a sure Ojou-sama. 　Julia nodded in satisfaction when taking a look at Fort’s look obtained the gratitude of a vassal. Then, she rotated known as us who have been ready on the nook. Her again was pointed at us, however was it pure for her to note us since she was a robust individual? Princess Lifell stated that she would keep right here in entrance of the room that was strictly guard by the troopers. As anticipated, it was unimaginable for Princess Lifell to proceed greater than this level.

“Julia, I depart them to you. I’ve stated this many instances, however…” (Lifell)

“Aah, sure. I’ll maintain it solely in my thoughts with no matter I see. In fact, that’s similar goes to you, outdated man.” (Julia)

“…I’ll abide by Hime-sama’s intention.” (Fort)

It appeared like Princess Lifell had defined upfront that they shouldn’t leak to the environment even when they noticed Reese and my talents. Once we entered the king’s bed room whereas being grateful for Princess Lifell’s concern, the eyes of the attendants, who stayed within the room and took care of the king, have been all directed to us directly. A feminine attendant who appeared to be the chief amongst others got here out a step forward. She bowed to Julia whereas glancing at us.

“Julia-sama. I haven’t seen these folks earlier than. Who’re they?” (?)

“Aah, I’m considering to allow them to study Father. Though they appear like this, they’re docs acknowledged by the princess of Elysion.” (Julia)

We weren’t actually docs, however I guessed that was to make simpler to persuade them. 　After giving the identical clarification as to Fort, the feminine attendants quietly lowered their heads and gave us approach.

“Nevertheless, the issues they may do to any extent further are speculated to be secret. Sorry to everybody, however may you permit the room for a bit? The outdated man and I’ll watch Father, so there is no such thing as a want to fret.” (Julia)

“…Understood.” (Attendant)

I used to be saved as a result of the discuss was fast, however the expression of the attendants, who obediently left the room, was gloomy altogether. There have been in all probability many docs visited like ourselves, they usually noticed the scene the place these folks gave up many instances. Each time they have been overcome by the sense of helplessness, they grew to become mentally drained. Whereas I wanted no less than that we may mend the state of affairs with our palms, Reese and I stood up in entrance of the mattress the place the king slept and began diagnosing.

—

After ending an intensive examination, I reported the outcome and returned to the room. I sat on a chair and I used to be respiratory closely. It had been lower than an hour since I left this room, however on prime of getting questions from Julia, who was considering my approach of doing issues, I used to be bombarded with questions from Fort and that occurred from the start till the top. I obtained drained mentally.

“Thanks to your onerous work. I’ll put together tea immediately.” (Emilia)

“Welcome again. What’s the final result?” (Fia)

“How ought to I say this…” (Reese)

It may be as a result of Fia obtained again to regular, she drank the water that was placed on the desk. Reese was out of phrases when Fia requested the query. In the meantime, Karen appeared to have fully woken up. She was doing pushups along with Reus on the nook of the room, however they stopped once we returned and got here nearer.

“Was the king’s illness healed?” (Karen)

“No, he’s nonetheless sleeping in mattress.” (Sirius)

“Is it nonetheless no good even with Aniki and Reus-ane!?” (Reus)

“That’s not it. We solely examined the king. Principally, we haven’t began a full-scale remedy but.” (Sirius)

After taking a look at everybody who was questioning what did it meant by that, I defined what had occurred within the king’s bed room.

—

[Well then, I’m going to touch the arm to do physical examination.] (Sirius)

[This is what I’ve heard from Lifell. At least let me know the cause.] (Julia)

The Sandor king’s age appeared to be over fifty, and he had splendid bear and hair. Nevertheless, he was a really strict wanting man. Nevertheless, the king was additionally skinny due to lengthy sleep. He appeared to be fairly debilitating since there have been bedsores. However, he was nonetheless respiratory and the heartbeat was so as. Though it was regular that his eyes have been closed, the king confirmed no response even after I touched his arm.

[Even in this state, he will somehow drink soup if we bring it closer to the mouth. Thanks to everyone who takes care of Father, we manage to go through with this situation, but the anxiety is getting worse since there is no response.] (Julia)

He was unconscious, but when there was the urge for meals, he would reply. It may be much like vegetative state after I thought concerning the earlier life, however I had a distinct feeling.

[Did he suffer from any injury or illness before he collapsed?] (Sirius)

[No, Father was healthy. There was no evidence of poison in meals and cutleries. He suddenly fell into such a state.] (Julia)

Since he was in regular situation earlier than collapsing, the impression of sickness or prognostic signs have been weak. I centered my mana, and after I modified from examination on one level to do [Scan] on the entire physique… I caught an odd response on the king’s neck. That was…

[…The cause is unknown, but I might be able to awaken the king.] (Sirius)

[Are you sure!?] (Julia)

[Wait a sec! On what grounds can you say such thing? You merely touch his arm, aren’t you?] (Fort)

[I was convinced by palpation. Besides, I have seen similar symptoms in the past, so I think I can wake him up if I use some medicine.] (Sirius)

[Medicine? The doctors who had been examining up until now had tried various medicines. None of them were working.] (Fort)

[That’s because it requires special formulation. Since I remember how to make it, will you prepare the material I will write in the memo later?] (Sirius)

[Is it going to be working–…] (Fort)

[Wait, old man. If he knows the precedent, I think it’s worth a try. I will prepare it immediately, but when the medicine will be available?] (Julia)

[On top of being difficult to produce, the extraction method is also special, so it will take some time. The fastest I can make it available would be tomorrow.] (Sirius)

I attempted to inform her that it was unimaginable to rush it doesn’t matter what, however Julia nodded with a vivid smile.

[It is good enough to know that there is a possibility of waking up. I have to tell everyone soon.] (Julia)

[Hime-sama, I would like you not to do that. If the people of the castle know it and he doesn’t wake up eventually, it will not only affect him, but also the entire castle.] (Sirius)

[…You’re right. But wouldn’t it better to let the people who go against Aniue know? They haven’t said anything though…] (Julia)

[How about you tell your brother at least? I think he has the right to know as a family member.] (Sirius)

[Thank you for examining the king, but I would like not to mention too much about this situation.] (Fort)

[No… he is right. I will tell Aniue and Ashley later.] (Julia)

Fort had a sophisticated expression, however he wouldn’t go in opposition to Julia. As Fort helpless agreed, I whispered to Reese’s ear to use some remedy. She was watching the king with a sorrowful wanting face.

[Incidentally, it would be better to heal the physical condition. Reese, I leave it to you.] (Sirius)

[It looks difficult, but I’ll try it somehow. Uhm, I’m sorry but the image is…] (Reese)

[Hou… it is my first time seeing a magic that wrap the whole body with water. What is she doing?] (Fort)

[She is treating the king from the outside and the inside of the body at the same time. The effect will appear soon.] (Sirius)

To be exact, she rinsed off unhealthy issues within the physique with purifying water… it was one thing like detox. It was a magic that Reese may function freely and delicately the Spirits that stuffed w monumental mana. The king obtained one thing like poisoning signs because of the administration of varied medicines, and with this magic, it must be alleviated quite a bit.

[Ooh, there’s vitality on Father’s face! It’s better than what I heard from Lifell.] (Julia)

[What… is that…] (Fort)

[He will wake up after taking the medicine. Please don’t use other medicines until then, and don’t touch him unnecessarily.] (Sirius)

[I got it, so you don’t have to say that!] (Fort)

[Pay attention to those who come closer to Father. I must thank you Aniue for inviting you all to the castle.] (Julia)

—

After giving the memo written with required materials, Reese and I returned to the room. I drank the tea Emilia brewed and defined the state of affairs. Reese, who displayed a tough face after wanting on the memo earlier, requested me a query.

“Uhmm, Sirius-san. I feel I’ve seen the fabric written within the memo someplace, however…” (Reese)

“It’s apparent to suppose so. They’re spices for making curry powder.” (Sirius)

“Will the king rise up with the scent of curry?” (Karen)

“I see. Effectively, the scent of curry appears to be very scrumptious. Someway… I really feel like consuming curry.” (Reus)

“Me too…” (Reese)

“I like candy curry!” (Karen)

“…That shall be later, alright.” (Sirius)

The discuss had began to be derailed by the gluttonous youngsters, however Emilia and Fia appeared to be considering significantly. In Fia’s case, I may see nothing however being in agony with hangover.

“As for mixing formulation, can the curry powder turn into a drugs?” (Emilia)

“That’s over considering. I’m not going to make use of it as medication. Really, I plan to make use of the curry to deal with Lifell-hime and others. In any case, the medication now we have within the carriage is sufficient.” (Sirius)

“Do you imply that by one thing you name family medication? Do now we have one thing that may treatment coma?” (Fia)

“We have now smelling salts, ? Reus drank it earlier than and it was fairly intense.” (Sirius)

“…Ah, that one. If it’s with that medication, lifeless folks may additionally get up.” (Reus)

Reus was trembling with a bitter expression. I used to be certain that he was remembering the style. It was my authentic medication that finally enhanced bitterness and pungency, and it was sufficient to wake Reus who fainted by coaching.

After explaining to date, I signaled Fia with my eyes to ask her to maintain our voices from leaking outdoors by magic. Even Fia didn’t really feel good, she nonetheless used the magic. Then, Reese requested whereas tilting her head.

“I understand how highly effective smelling salts, however haven’t they tried one thing comparable?” (Reese)

“No, he’ll get up. Really, I already know the explanation why the king hasn’t woken up.” (Sirius)

After I defined that I deliberate to take away the trigger when making the king drank the medication, Reese narrowed her eyes as if she disapproved.

“If the trigger was identified, we must always have eliminated it and handled him at the moment…” (Reese)

“I’m sorry as a result of I didn’t explaining that. To inform the reality, I used to be considering to behave with a purpose to know what can be the enemy’s transfer.” (Sirius)

Since I used to be nonetheless not clear concerning the mastermind who acted behind the scene by creating the fort’s… I meant the entire nation’s strife, so I created a state of affairs the place the enemy had no alternative however to take measures. If the details about the king would heal was identified, there must be some actions.

“I really feel unhealthy concerning the king, however I’ve to have him sleep only for yet one more day. If potential, I need to fully confirm the identification and the aim of the enemy by tomorrow.” (Sirius)

“The circumstances are one way or the other deep.” (Emilia)

“By the way in which, what was the reason for the king falling asleep?” (Reese)

“He isn’t sleeping. He simply can’t get up. It’s as a result of there’s a factor on this spot.” (Sirius)

There was a slight response felt from the neck after I examined the king by utilizing [Scan], and… that factor was inhibiting the awakening of him. At first, I assumed it was a mark hit with a poison needle, however since I felt the same response previously, I instantly deceived by saying I didn’t know the trigger.

“Didn’t we see this in Arbitray’s fort the place the Beast King guidelines? It was an existence that hid inside a human physique and prompted disturbance by manipulating the physique of the host.” (Sirius)

Sure… the factor inside the king’s physique gave the identical response because the mysterious stone that attempted to kidnap the daughter of the Beast King and repeatedly doing inhuman experiments. Not like the one in Arbitray, the scale of that factor right here was fairly small, and it didn’t posses a will, nevertheless it wasn’t a mistake because it gave a refined mana response.

“As I assumed earlier than, this nation is in a harmful state of affairs. Because the kings of many nations, who’re within the entrance line base, will come again later at present, let’s focus on it instantly.” (Sirius)

Talking of the stone that manipulated the host, folks may consider it as a joke, however the potential of hazard was low. Nevertheless, if this might be defined by the Beast King, who had been hurt earlier than, they might no less than not going to disclaim it. Whereas deciding future plans once more, we have been quietly ready for the supplies we requested to succeed in.

—

Nevertheless… the state of affairs moved sooner than anticipated.

I obtained the fabric I used to be asking, and the formulation of… curry powder was achieved. Because the time for lunch had arrived, we ate with Sanger and others who lastly grew to become much less busy. He tried to solicit us as normal, however the lunch ended with none incident. Then, I used to be known as by Zilard to come back to a room for a non-public assembly.

I went there alone, so after I went to Zilard’s private room whereas retaining vigilance, I heard a grave matter.

“…Are you certain?” (Sirius)

“Sure. The identification of the mastermind who creates disturbance within the fort so that individuals disobey Sanger-sama has been confirmed.” (Zilard)

“You don’t must go to date by calling me, and I feel it will be good when you can catch the enemy.” (Sirius)

“It would take instances to have others to vomit prices with a purpose to choose him. It’s extremely doubtless that he would take motion whereas deliberating on that, now we have to cope with him earlier than he strikes.” (Zilard)

“In different phrases, you need me to safe… no, make it bloodier?” (Sirius)

“It helps when you perceive quick. This can be a request in expectation of your capacity…” (Zilard)

Zilard stood up from a chair, and deeply lowered his head.

“Would you please take away… Common Fort who plans to deliver revolution secretly?” (Zilard)

He requested an assassination to me.

Additional/Bonus – What was occurring at the moment? (Emilia’s Persistence)

To determine which one would go breakfast with me in pair, the choice with lottery-draw string had begun.

“A string with a crimson line will go together with Sirius-sama. Please put together your self and take one.” (Emilia)

“Alright, I’m going.” (Reus)

When Reus took the lead and pull a string, its tip had a crimson line–…

“Oh my, all strings have crimson line. I’ll change these instantly, so please wait a second.” (Emilia)

“Eh? Al-alright…” (Reus)

It was extraordinarily forceful, however Reus appeared unable to say something to her sister’s dreadfulness. Then, she modified to new strings, and when Reus pulled once more…

“Ooh, it’s crimson!” (Reus)

“That’s unsuitable. That isn’t crimson. That shade is Freygon shade.” (Emilia)

“That’s infantile, Nee-chan!” (Reus)

Reus was proper, however I didn’t actually perceive why he participated within the first place. By the way in which, Freygon was a lizard monster whose complete physique dyed in crimson.

“Say, Reus can also be a guard, so it’s tremendous if he separates from me.” (Sirius)

“Aah… that’s true. However, I actually need to have meal with Aniki solely for a very long time, .” (Reus)

“You’re the similar as ever. I can’t be careless with my youthful brother by way of instinct and success. Nevertheless, now that the most important impediment has been slashed out, the opposite individual is Reese solely. Now, let’s do it honest and sq.!” (Emilia)

“…I’ll go together with Reus.” (Reese)

Since Reese turned down due to Emilia’s enthusiasm, Emilia and I went for breakfast collectively.

Additional/Bonus – Hokuto’s paws are versatile.

On the way in which again to the fort after ending coaching with Julia within the early of morning, I made a decision to go to the carriage to see how Hokuto was doing. Julia shouldn’t have time, however after I went to the carriage collectively together with her since she stated she wished to come back alongside…

“…Woof!” (Hokuto)

“Kuhh… are you making an attempt to face in my approach!?” (Julia)

Ashley, who was sitting in entrance of Hokuto, was holding his head with a severe search for some purpose..

“It’s uncommon for Ashley-sama to get up this early.” (Fort)

“Aah, it might probably’t be assist to fret about Hokuto. However… what are you doing?” (Sirius)

As I got here nearer whereas questioning, there was a strategic kind board recreation on this world put between Hokuto and Ashley… it was a factor known as Chess.

“What!? That wolf can play video games too!?” (Julia)

“It must be potential if he’s a Hundred Wolves, proper? However…” (Ashley)

After I examine the state of affairs of the sport, Ashley was clearly in inferior place.

“It actually push you that far, huh?” (Julia)

“Hime-sama… first off, shouldn’t you ask Ashley-sama why he was taking part in board recreation with the monster?” (Fort)

“Effectively, he’s in all probability working towards at this level of time. Alright, I’ll be subsequent.” (Julia)

“What number of instances I’ve advised you that you simply don’t have the time!?” (Fort)

The sport superior whereas the princess and the final interacted like a sketch comedy. Even so, the looks of Hokuto grabbing and shifting items a lot smaller than himself very nicely along with his paw was actually surreal. And some minutes later…

“Aah!?” (Ashley)

“Woof!” (Hokuto)

“It’s… checkmate.” (Julia)

There was no strategy to escape anymore. So, Ashley was splendidly crushed.

“Dang it, I misplaced. Right here, it’s the promised silver coin. I need to have one other recreation, but when I spend extra pocket cash, the reward for Freesia can be…” (Ashley)

Apparently, they appeared to guess cash to extend the sense of rigidity. Hokuto won’t want cash, however to be sincere, I accepted it since it will assist me. By the way in which, I used to be shocked by Ashely who may talk to date with Hokuto.

“Alright! I’ll guess my throne subsequent! I don’t want it anyway!” (Ashley)

“What are you saying!?” (Fort)

That may be apparent. Therefore, Ashley was remonstrated by Fort as a result of he was waging one thing vital. Within the meantime, Hokuto fixedly checked out my face…

“…Woof.” (Hokuto)

“No, it’s not obligatory. Please refuse him correctly as a result of there is no such thing as a must have the throne.” (Sirius)

“Woof…” (Hokuto)

“If I turn into a royalty, I’d be busy and don’t have time for brushing–…” (Sirius)

“Gurururu!” (Hokuto)

Then, Hokuto refused him with all his may.
