The moon had thin clouds, and only blurred light illuminated the earth.

Church backyard. Fujido stood in that spot, where there was no light except the moonlight.

Only a raw, warm breeze caresses your skin. It's the feel of a wooden sword that sticks to your hand.

Same length as the Holy Sword Ex, which I received before I embarked on my journey, weighs about the same weight as the light Holy Sword.

In the dark, narrow your eyes and stare forward. Aria with a sword about three meters in front of her.

Not much of a month into the Devil King's Crusade, and there's no day when Fujido didn't hold his sword.

Its improvement and subtraction was what Luke's Knights Commander also looked out for, but Fujido Naoto, born in a peaceful world, had no experience with swords. No matter how strong the protection is, the journey to the Crusade of the Demon King is not sweet enough to be accomplished by the protection alone, and saying things at times of need is an experience that has accumulated until then.

The daily training with Aria was offered by Fujido himself in an attempt to cover a little less experience.

Short vomited exhalation. Focus your nerves and observe Aria's standing in front of you.

I had a slightly damp feeling on my back even though I hadn't moved a single step yet.

Aria Lizarth.

Son of the Sword King.

Even in the Luke kingdom, the girl, born and raised in one of the finest swordsmanship landlords, behaves quietly and undisturbed, but feels terribly intimidated.

Aria's height is higher than that of Fujido, and the sword held in both hands has a longer reach than that of Fujido, and she has to take a step back of Aria's attackable range for Fujido to deliver that sword.

There are 7 differences between the levels of Fujido and Aria, but Fujido is still unfamiliar with the increased physical abilities, and Aria, on the contrary, had plenty of combat experience with those on a higher level than herself in archaeology.

The tip of Aria's wooden sword, erected, is directed between Fujido's brows.

The distance was measured with a twist and a small stride, and - Fujido took a strong step in.

"Nao, one of your weaknesses... is your lack of arm strength"

After training.

The sword was unmade and evaluated by Aria.

In the end, I couldn't give him a machete.

A wooden sword different from the original holy sword. If you fought in a match format using comparable weapons, Fujido's direct arm is one or two steps inferior to Aria Lizarce's.

A full-fledged blow is easily taken, and the sword depicting Aria's strange activation slashes Fujido's arm and shoulder.

For Fujido with the Holy Sword, most of the battle against demons ends with a special first-strike. In other words, it showed that he had no experience of being properly taken by a sword.

Fujido listens to Aria as she prepares her disturbed breath.

"Nao's attack is... light. In the Vale Forest, the performance of the Holy Sword pushed it out, but if an unbutchered demon appeared with a blow ahead... it would be hard work."

"If you raise the level, you'll also increase your arm strength?

"I'm going up. But..."

Continue like it's hard to say as Aria delivers the wooden sword to her sheath.

"That upside isn't that great. Generally speaking, women in the human race have a smaller increase in muscle strength than men."

Fujido looks down at his own palm. A luxurious palm with a paralyzed feel.

The slashing flavour of the Holy Sword Ex deviates from the regular track. In some cases even metal protective equipment would rip like butter. But it is the power of the Holy Sword, not the power of Fujido.

"Men are prone to muscle strength and strength and are suitable for swordsmanship. Instead, women are prone to agility and magic, but then they don't have to be swordsmen. Nao, there are not so many female swordsmen in this world...... Especially when they reach a certain or more range, they all become men. This is… the peculiarity of race as a people. Of course, some coverage can be achieved depending on the level and quality of the weapon, but only its characteristics should be borne in mind"

"... I see... I get it"

Even in the former world of Fujido, there were differences in physical abilities between women and men. That is something that Fujido himself has felt many times, and it goes without saying now.

But Fujido let his shoulders flaunt against the wall, which stood again even though he had been summoned as a brave man.

"Does that have anything to do with the fact that all the holy braves ever summoned were men?

"Come on... the summons is... because it's the secret technology of the church. But at least if you summon me as a swordsman -"

Aria flatters her expression slightly and continues.

Aria herself has struggled as the daughter of the Sword King. Aria had a brother, so her expectations as a successor to the Sword King did not come down, but it was inevitable that she would be seen with colored glasses.

"Men are better suited," he said.

……

"Fortunately, the Holy Sword has no weight. It's not in the holy armor, and the shield given to Lord Nao is a much lighter, more magical object than a common shield."

"How can I cover the difference in physical ability?

Aria answered Fujido's question without hesitation.

"Probably not with a sword"

I can't do it with a sword.

I open my eyes and look up at Aria's face, but the look on her face is extremely serious.

Fujido speaks like a half-dropped bowl.

"You're the daughter of the Sword King, but you're weak enough."

"I know because I kept getting swordsmanship guidelines, Nao. We and them... will eventually make an isolated difference. For example, if a male swordsman and a female swordsman had the same degree of proficiency and used the same weapon, the former would win a hundred times a hundred times. We weren't created that way."

Aria answers faceless. To that expression, Fujido felt the cold of incomprehensibility and something similar to his readiness.

Still don't give up, check on the information you hear.

"I heard swordsmen have moves that use magic, too?

"… yes, but swordsman moves don't use magic so much, and the ratings that exist now add up to that in the first place"

In the first place, you gain some magic no matter how many swordsmen you raise the level.

If magic could make such a big difference, a female swordsman would never have been considered an affair.

Fujido did not answer it and instead gently flashed his sword.

Sharp sound that cuts the air. The flickering sword body did not precipitate, and the average person was enough to fall in love with it, but he knew that the aria he had actually received had little power there.

Speed is out, and with the Holy Sword, you can double the lower Warcraft bone-by-bone, but that's all you can pry.

How far can you go with just that slashing flavor...

Aria sighed deeply and emotionally at Fujido, who was silent, heartless and waved her sword. And I said.

"... but Nao is in luck. You have high magic. I have a gift for witchcraft."

"Sorcery talent..."

"Sorcery and swordsmanship, few can handle both sides. The abyss of witchcraft is considered comparable to the finest swordsmanship. Nao, wizards on the contrary...... there are more women than men. You'll be more familiar with remiss."

"Magic, or..."

At the end of the day, when the blade was shaken wide, Fujido shook it down with all his might.

Sharp sound. Balls of sweat dance through the universe and fall to the ground. In that mood, Aria remembered herself shortly after she found it difficult to refine her old self - swordsmanship.

"... I wish I could have had the talent of a sword..."

"Why?

"You look good, don't you? He said he'd use his sword."

Fujido's face laughing powerlessly.

It also looks slightly like a child's face, but the brightly colored black hair through the nose is visible to both men and women.

but it seems convincing to Ston even when they say women......

Turning away from the pitch-black eyes hidden in his stretched forehead, Aria changed the story.

"Nao, your hair is growing, and maybe it's time to cut your hair"

To the words, Fujido pinched his wet forehead with his index fingers and fingers.

"Uh, maybe a little out of the way for sure..."

"Honestly...... now Nao doesn't look like a man unless they say so.

"Huh...?

His voice is high for men, and he's low for them. If you can't, you don't even look like a man, but the skeleton is clearly luxurious compared to the average man swordsman or mercenary. Not surprisingly, when they say woman.

its appearance in the characteristics of its abilities.

It was unexpected that Spica noticed, but even if not, it could be harder to hide it through sooner or later.

To Aria's sigh, Fujido blinked his pussy and eyes.
