Different worlds of the last heaven and knights of the fist.

First floor of Castle Raindeer. In a spacious training area, a fierce striking sound woods the spirit.

"Phew...!

A silver sword flash strikes a training wooden doll as the wind rips. The target of the person who took the direct hit swayed slightly, returning a response that paralyzed the girl's hand.

Exhaling deeply, Claire Lower Gertillude wipes the sweat floating on her forehead. I paid for the room with the left tie that touched my cheek.

At the same time, an overwhelming sense of fatigue engulfs the entire body.

"... come on"

I supported my sword and my body that was about to sit up.

I'm not convinced.

It's not powerful. The duration is also short. - All in all, weak.

A blow with physical enhancement has only produced results to such an extent as to faintly tremble the training target.

".................. ugh"

The Royal Guard apprentice girl is thought-provoking as she prepares to breathe.

If those two had done this before...

Belgrette's water sword slashed down sharply and diagonally.

The drift shield snapped his head with an unmade right fist blow.

The strength of Arishi shielding need not be further debated. He kept knocking out the unincorporated effects, but at last he competed in the heavenly banquet of neighboring countries - the Lefe Witchcraft Empire, decorating a brilliant victory.

And my real sister Belgrette. Having fought her brother's feud, Predilecke, she has now increased her skill as if she had been freed from the shackles.

As for Claria, the fact that my esteemed sister raised her arms, like she did about herself... no, I'm more than happy. But on the other hand, there was also a rush to be left behind.

(Not at all... Sister's, if it doesn't help the princess...)

The path pursued by a knight named Claire is determined.

Escort of Princess Liliane. And my sister's assistant.

Defensive techniques to protect the princess, and auxiliary techniques to support her sister, must be made more precise.

The duration of the physical strengthening exercised by Claria is only twenty seconds as it stands. In the meantime, there is one unevenness in the effect. This doesn't talk about it. I just have to train foolishly. If you cannot move as you wish, you will also need to review the composition of the procedure. Now I even use it and coarsen it while refining it.

The art of amplification must also be able to be carried out with greater precision. This technique leads directly to the duration of the Great Sword of Water, the hand of my sister. If we boost this, we can explode to the bottom of our sister's abilities, albeit temporarily.

"... not yet!

As I wiped my sweat, shortly after I started chanting to strengthen myself again,

"Oh, you're hanging in there."

"You're encouraging. You're annoying, Claire."

There were two shadows coming into the training ground.

One is a female knight characterized by a long gray hair, a "solder" and a loving smile. The other is an endless beautiful girl with a pure white dress and silky blonde hair that makes her even feel divine.

"To my sister Ole...... princess!

Two people I've known since childhood, Oretta and Princess Liliane. Against the senior knight and the princess he should serve, the knight apprentice girl turns her spine stretched and faces back.

"It doesn't matter to us. Keep going, Claire"

"Ha, thank you for your attention"

"Alas, I've been sweating for a long time. Youth. Fine."

……

Against the bright Oretta, but Claria answers with a slightly darker voice.

"... because my sister Amanda will be back soon. I can't show you anything unusual..."

"I wouldn't be so despised. I think Claria's getting better here, too. Amanda would be surprised."

"But to keep your sister's back..."

"That's well, because Belgrette raised her arms more than yours. That's what made the difference."

Oretta frankly poked at the facts without worrying weirdly. She's another kind sister to Claire, but she's also someone who doesn't hold onto these allegations.

"... refine!

"Yeah, well, if it's okay with your Ole sister, I'll always go with the training. Yikes. Not right now, though."

"Speaking of which, why are you two here?

"No. I'm looking for the captain, didn't he come here? No comms."

The training ground, which goes around 7pm, is idle without the popular "Hitoshi". I've been training here for about an hour now, but on the contrary, I've seen very little of the other soldiers. If you thought about time, I guess a lot of people are at dinner.

"Captain Latias...? I haven't seen it..."

Latias Giriax.

He is the head of Silver Legion Squad Silvalios, a special unit directly under King Aldia, characterized by short blonde hair and sharp eyesight.

He is a devout follower of the thunderous god Jupiter, whose character can be described as calm settling and ruthless against enemies and transgressors.

He is one of the rare and powerful 'pentas', whose strength is renowned as one of the best in a country with a strong crowd. There are rumors that he was a bad boy when he was younger, but it was a little unimaginable from what he looks like now, strictly.

The folks secretly call it "The Three Horsemen of Thunder (Dry Litter)" because all of the most powerful warriors representing the three horizontal powers, Latias of Raindeer, Duen of Lefe and Levine of Bulkfort, are also users of the Thunder attribute.

"If I see you, shall I report you?

"Oh, you don't have to go that far. Hey, I just need to ask you something."

It is Princess Liliane who waves. I can even feel elegant in such tricks.

"I'd like to read Dark Forest and the First Two for a long time, but it's not even in the library. I was just wondering if Latias might know where it is."

"Really? But..." Dark Forest and the First Two "is another thing you miss."

"Hmph. Claria liked it when she was a kid, too. You liked it as much as you liked" Erüberim, "didn't you?

"Elu......!? Sister Ole, I don't think that matters at all!

"" Ole sister. Erubelim is coming. Claire, you're too scared to sleep. Heh heh heh, Claire was an honest, scared guy back then, she was adorable ~ "

"Oh, please don't!

"Ugh. Shall I accompany you to bed tonight, for the first time in a long time?

"Fine!

Turn your face bright red and scream with all your might. At the same time, one male soldier entered through the entrance to the training ground.

"Was it this way, Deputy Bloody Fear?"

I find Oretta, and she comes fast.

I'm not very tall. Wouldn't the Decenthal be lower than many men? However, the complexion visible from the gaps in light armor can be seen to reside quite a bit of muscle. I could imagine a person who would be honest, from his face tough and his crisp walking style.

"Oh, Regular Godaric. What's the matter, man?

"My squad's report came up on the other day about dealing with the burglars, so I brought it with me."

"Ah, Rika.... Yes, I did receive it. Oh, yeah, Regular Godaric. Captain Latias, haven't you seen him?

"Is...... Captain Latias? About half an hour ago, I saw you leaving the castle with Lord Miffaealto."

"Oh, I knew you weren't in the castle. Mifa, when I was with you, I went for a drink. I'm not answering my correspondence on the street. Oh, thank you very much."

"Ha. Now if you'll excuse me."

The soldier's man salutes Oretta and Princess Liliane, bows his head also to Claria and heads to the exit of the training ground.

…………

With a quiet eye on her back, Claria was looking away.

"Hehe. Have you noticed, Claria?"

"... Yes"

- Strong.

I don't even know exactly what my skill is as a chancer Mage, but perhaps physical and swordsmanship is quite something.

"He is, Ozouroy Godaric. up-and-coming nineteen-year-old. Swordsmanship is the best of the young. You'll be showing your head in no time."

…………

"Oh, I'm sorry to interrupt your training. Go on, go on."

"... Now, if you'll excuse me"

Claria turns to the training wooden doll.

- Stronger, if you don't.

Just keep that thought to your chest.

No, you can't just keep it a secret. We need to make sure we polish ourselves.

That's what "The Dark Forest and the First Two" looks like. There's no such thing as convenient stories.

Two brothers and sisters appear in the fairy tale, but the next thing you know, something convenient happens the way your sister wants it, and you fill her up inexorably.

There is also a position of the same sister, or a fairy tale that I purely envied as a child, but at this age I even think is ridiculous.

Like that 'sister', it's impossible to get something just because you want it.

(... strongly. harder)

A little, to catch up on my sister's back.

Dealey Birthday...... I mean, Princess Liliane's 'Adule' is also close. It's not necessarily that things like assassins attacking us don't happen either, as they used to. To protect this own Lord from all threats, no matter what happens.

"Shall we go, Princess?"

"Yes."

The female knight and the princess quietly followed the scene, leaving Claria, who had begun to enter the training again.

Instead, in a dark, deep forest somewhere, two brothers and sisters woke up.

I wonder where we are. Why are we here?

That's what the two of you who looked around thought.

"Brother, let's just get out of this dark forest"

My sister said.

"Yeah. Let's do that"

My brother also nodded.

The two brothers and sisters, close to each other, take their hands and start walking. Luckily, there seemed to be no such thing as frightened beasts. But it was a very tough journey. The two of them managed to escape through the woods with high spells and wide swamps.

But only the desolate earth, which lasted everywhere, spread beyond it, when the dark forest was finally over.

The great sky at the sight of me, and the ground cracked by retribution.

Nothing else, really. There was no town, no human figure, no animal figure, not even a bottle of grass.

The two of them were badly depressed.

"Brother, what do we do?"

The girl gets thin and asks her brother.

"Anyway, let's go back to the woods and find water and food. If we don't, we're dead."

A calm brother at all times, he said.

The two of them turned back to the woods to look for drinking water and anything they were likely to eat. But I couldn't find anything. At first they were two relieved that there were no beasts, but I don't see any other animals as unnaturally.

"My throat is cute. I'm hungry..."

"Hold on. I got it. Hang in there."

My brother encourages me, but my sister, who was born weak in body and feet, falls right into it.

Before those two, something rolled around.

It was an apple.

There were a lot of apples high up in the big tree in front of us. One of them was falling.

"I'm fine, you eat."

"Thank you, brother"

My brother gave the apple to my sister.

My sister, who ate apples and got a little better, wanted to eat a lot more. Even my favorite brother wanted me to eat it.

But the apple tree is very high, and you can't reach it. A tap on the trunk never fell off.

"I wonder if a strong wind will blow and the apple will fall"

That's what my sister thought.

Then a storm came soon.

The two of them fled to a nearby cave and after a torrential rainstorm, went back to the apple tree and were very surprised. Oh, my God, a lot of apples were falling to the ground. Plus, there was a storm and it rained, so we got drinking water.

The two of them, who were well enough to have a satisfactory meal, went around again, not least by looking into the woods. Then we could find fruits that had fallen in the wind, just like apples, and creatures like crabs and deer. The animals must have been hiding somewhere safe, knowing there was going to be a storm soon with their wild instincts. With the storm passing, you must have seen it.

"Good. Water and food are going to work out."

Said my relieved brother.

"But brother, what do we do now?"

My sister seems a little nervous.

Outside the woods, there is only a wasteland that may not last anywhere.

"Going outside doesn't necessarily mean we can get somewhere. For now, let's live here."

The two brothers and sisters decided to live in this forest.

In the cold winter, we found a fountain with warm water and in the hot summer, we found a cold mass of ice in the back of the cave and the two managed to spend their days in harsh nature.

People are something they get used to, and they only cease to feel crippled by such a life at any given time.

Life in such a forest has become perfectly normal, about one spring day.

My brother noticed that my sister looked like she was about to rustle.

"What's wrong with you?

My brother looks worried and glances at my sister's face.

said my sister.

"I'm so happy to live with my favorite brother. But just for a second, you two are a little rusty.... I thought I wanted to see your father."

My brother's in trouble.

Food and drinks can be found in the woods. Cabins and tools can also be managed by using trees and stones. But your father...

Something moved in the back of the woods then.

It comes a little closer to the two of us, sprinkled with grass.

Eventually, I showed up before the two of you...

And they lived happily ever after. Shit.

"Ha..."

Claria closed the finished book and put it on the shelf by the bed.

On its back cover, it is described in a lovely style as' Dark Forest and the First Two '. The author name is not written. It's unknown.

It was a fairy tale about what Princess Liliane was looking for.

Did you discover that the princess and Oretta, who eventually went to a remote warehouse, had lost many books along with other literature and books?

Because of that. So why don't you read it back for a while? and received it for no reason whatsoever against the two who have given it to me, and to this day.

(I don't know what to say...... that's child deceiving content)

When I was young, I was satisfied with the end of overlapping myself with my sister in the making and making her anticipate a reunion with her father.

but if you look back calmly at this age, things are weird. The way it ends is abrupt as it was unnaturally cut. Most importantly, I don't care a bit about all the convenient things happening to my sister one after the other. Perhaps that is because my sister, who is also my sister, is now very different from my sister.

Regardless of such a general review of the Clarean individual, it's actually not just a fairy tale, this story that will be 'Dark Forest and the first two'. It was a notable document, with constant debate and reflection among intellectuals.

Because the name appears in this work, the Dragon's Destroyer. Furey, a wise man who is Geisserius' partner and renowned for her emigration talent. She grew up hearing about the Dark Forest and the first two.

This means that this fairy tale will have existed for more than five hundred years in the time of Geisserius. In one theory, there was also an interpretation that it was spelled more than a thousand years ago. If that is true, it will also be one of the oldest categories in the literature. The present is 781 years of continental history. Assuming that this' Dark Forest and the First Two 'existed before the year was set, it could also be a major clue to the mysterious old times.

And this fairy tale has a strong view of whether it was based on the facts.

(Sure... just a fairy tale, somewhere abrupt... or not clustered together? For example, this sibling was real and cut only one scene in her life...... I have a halfway impression)

I can't even tell you my name till the end, brother and sister.

Why does it begin with a depiction that suddenly awakens in the woods? For example, how were they before that? And in the second half, Zero's sister says, "I want to see my father". As for the mother, however, she has not been touched at all. As if it's normal not to be there.

Somewhere, there seems to be a part of it that spells out the truth but is therefore untold, like there is an 'setting' that has not been revealed… Such a thought-provoking atmosphere of creation was one of the elements that can be a source of debate.

The title 'Dark Forest and the First Two' is also enigmatic. What the hell is' first '? Among the scholars, there was also a view that these two brothers and sisters might be the' first 'men created by God. In other words, "Father" in the making is God. Even assuming so, it's still unnatural not to be touched about the mother......

The fact that the author is unknown also applauds the incredible side.

(Well...)

Claria doesn't know if this story is based on facts. I'm not even interested. It's just...

(Such convenient happy stories can't happen in reality)

A storm came by chance and I could get food and drinks. In winter we find springs of water, and in summer we discover cold ice. And finally, reunite with my father.

Exactly creative.

I could only assure you of that part.

Lie down and look up at the ceiling.

(... you have to brush your strength)

Give yourself the strength to maintain happiness.

The girl swears she'll be strong. Fall night deepened as if to echo that determination.
