The Lion Royal Palace has a training facility for royalty.

The name is Nanbu.

The facilities created after just one queen, Linoncellus rare-Gandia, inscribed in the history of Gandia, thought to be capable of constant training, even within the royal palace, have been routinely utilized by generations of kings and royalties since. At first it was just a large room, but as the times descended it became full of various exercise equipment, tools and equipment.

As a child of Leongand, he was still in the same shape, and every time he took a leg during his practice martial arts, he remembered himself as a child.

During Nanbu, it was too wide for Leongando as a child. It was just fun to run around, and making all kinds of appliances and tools like toys was what bothered me around. And it was Linonclair who got Leongand in trouble like that.

Named after taking part of the name of the great lion queen Linoncellus, she had apparently dreamed of becoming someone like Linoncellus, and since she was a child, she had no trouble working herself out.

Leongando, who had to play the lyncher, was so much about training himself that he couldn't help but be outrun by Linonclair in every way. As a result, it was needless to say that I let her down and let her down, and that, for a long time, was painful as a lump deep in his chest.

I think it's like very recently that Leongand finally got his chest up and was able to discuss it with his beloved sister.

"Thanks to you for that and this, Setsuna"

"Yes......?

The boy, wearing training gear, saw this one with a decent look.

Such a natural reaction that Leongand has no idea what he's talking about. Leongand smiled bitterly and narrowed his eyes to his unusual expression.

"I'm sorry, we're talking here."

"Ha... well, that's fine..."

The red-eyed boy with dark hair, unable to hide his confusion, but firmly put on his protective gear and took his helmet in his hand. The protective equipment is light armor for training, but Gandhia has made improvements from generation to generation, and the performance is good. Though it can't be used at all for real combat, it seems enough to be enough for training.

Naturally, Leongand wears the same protective gear.

The training of swordsmanship, here, had become the daily routine of Leongando.

With the expansion of the national territory, the King's work was on the other hand enormous.

No, Gandhia's land is about four times bigger than it once was. Nor can we be able to work with the same appropriations as we did in the era of small and vulnerable States. In order to survive the days when you are busy on official business, it becomes important to move your body and sweat.

That's something I've known for a long time for Leongand, but these days, I was starting to feel stronger.

Regardless, politics is not going by Leongand alone. The heavy ministers, including the proximity of the four, have become his hands and feet, and sometimes his head itself, to think, act and assist him. That should have dispersed the burden on Leongand, but still, it wasn't enough.

The rapid expansion of the country would be the biggest factor.

Gandhia, until now, had only about a quarter of the country, and Leongando, disguised as a fool, should have thrown his government at the ministers.

The succession to the throne forced me to engage in politics, and on top of that, I had to destroy the enemy country and make its national territory my property. Expansion of the land is inherently something that takes a huge amount of time, but neither Logner nor Zalwarn has conquered far earlier than expected, so its recoil is coming down to Leongand.

Of course, that's why we're talking about what we call the status quo without calling it success.

"Though, I appreciate it, it's true"

"Suddenly, what happened to you? Your Majesty..."

"I really appreciate it, Setsuna."

Leongand walked toward the center between Nanbu. Wear protective gear, grab a wooden sword, and head there for a place to practice swordsmanship. There is no one else in the vast space between Nanbu but Leongand and Setsuna. Just the two of us, but that was, in other words, a sign that that's all Setuna was trusted.

As Captain of the Royal SS Lion's Tail. As a useful actor in the Gandhian leap. As a hero.

No, he became someone who had to be in this country.

The side of the boy that goes through Leongand's eyes looks radiant, but it's also, after all, because he's the hero of this country.

"Without you, Gandhia would never have leaped this far"

Leongand saw love as a boy hero dressed in training gear when he stopped to face Setuna. Though it's as if he's not what God looks like on the battlefield, that's probably why he can seem reliable.

I'm not always on the battlefield.

In normal times, there are ordinary times, in times of war, there are faces and appearances.

Especially in the case of Setuna, that was remarkable.

In normal times, he only looks like a boy, and that's what Leongand looks like.

There is nothing more dramatic than a boy in ordinary times turning a battlefield into hell for his enemies and bringing an overwhelming victory to his own army.

It was natural for the people to be enthusiastic about his work and held up as the hero Tan, and Leongand himself, took the initiative to brag about it that way. Setuna is the hero of Gandhian salvation and a leapfrogging actor, he said. The black spear Setuna opens up Gandhia's future.

It means he may have a bit of a load on him, but that's all I expect.

"I am, Setsuna."

Leongand set up a wooden sword. And Setsuna. Two wooden swords, the tip of which is towards the other's chest.

"You pushed me on the back."

The beginning was Canaan.

In the city of Canaan, burnt by Lancaine-Bunel, Leongand learned of Setuna's existence. A boy who crusaded an armed summoner of madness and nearly lost his life. The more I knew about the self-destructive activity rather than its devotion, the less interested I became.

I wonder if that was destiny.

Destiny encounter.

Right now, I just think so.

"I met you, I knew you, I made contact with you, I saw your power, and I started chasing my dreams."

When I had stopped until then, suddenly, I started making noises and moving.

In words, that's what it is.

stale, commonplace, but absolute facts.

In fact, Setuna's presence was a powerful and essential element, not above all for Gandia.

The presence of Setuna made it easy for Gandia to seize Fortress Balsar, gently swallow Logner and beat Zalwarn.

Because Setuna was there.

Without Setuna, it is an indisputable fact that Gandia's fate would have changed dramatically.

The recapture of Fortress Balsar would have been possible. Logner could have been able to control it, too. But how about Zalwarn?

Couldn't it have been possible?

Think of that like every day because, for Leongand, Setsuna is nothing but a hero.
