Emperor! Can You See Stats!?

The issue of deploying the western front, which has many interests, was shortened and about a month later. Yurius has rarely seen the training of his knights that morning.

‘Now I feel like the Knights are getting pretty good at it. Now I only have one thing left to do. ’

Get it, get it!

“I told you before, your feet are moving slow! Focus on your training! ”

The training on the training ground was fierce. And it was already quite a story among the knights, but it was also the day of Yurius' official announcement.

“Gather around! After today's training, the Crown Prince will speak as he foretold. ”

Soon, a hundred knights all stood in front of the arena. Yurius opens his mouth with a smiling face.

“I'm sure many of you already know, but I have news for our Knights. ”

He declares it silent but in a powerful tone.

“It seems that the order of the Knights is beginning to take hold, so we've decided to march our knights before this imperial ballgame! ”

Phonetic

You already know this, but you still hear the sound of troops among the knights.

“A prime tournament might be worth a try, but a riding spear or a regular tournament might be a challenge. ”

“Maybe it's to gain experience. ”

“Anyway, now's your chance to test your training achievements! ”

After the knights were founded, it was a repetition of training and training. In fact, the imperial ballet was also one of the most popular festivals on the continent, so their expressions were bright.

‘The reaction is not so bad. This should be something to look forward to. ’

Yurius smiles inside, but opens his mouth again with a solemn expression.

“You may think differently, but how much do you expect to achieve in this match? ”

“ ……? ”

This was not easy for Heines and other squadron leaders and above to answer. Objectively, the current strength of the knights was not weak.

However, there were limits to how well some knights performed in such a way as to call this event a group war.

“I'll cut to the chase! ”

Yurius makes a sound like blue ceiling here.

“Our knights will win the whole tournament. I want everyone to be excited! ”

“ ……! ”

Most of the knights lost their words. They were never objectively weak knights, but they were never enough to win no matter what. But the look on Yurius' face never seemed like a joke.

At the end of the sentence, the assembly of that day was over. Most of the Knights were scattered with a look of ignorance.

“I think it's a bit much for them. ”

As the foreman, only Heines quietly approached Yurius and expressed his concerns. But he smiles quietly and asks Heines again.

“And what is the realistic limit to Sir Haynes? ”

Heines opens his mouth without a hitch because he had something in mind.

“I think it's best to be good at spearheading a horse. And if it's a prime, it's worth a shot. However, if the overall winner is the goal, it looks like a regular tournament. ”

Haynes' idea was reasonable. The imperial ballet team scored a comprehensive score of three matches.

The first is horseback riding. Most knights polished their swords, but they had to have minimal qualities, as a spear can be used to break through on horseback raids or enemy camps.

The Horseback Spear Battle was literally a gathering of knights with spears in formation.

While the strength of each individual is important, the quality of the knights is also important because how well they assist each other, historic knights who have been breathing for a long time are much more advantageous.

The second is Prime Tournament. This is literally no different from what you would normally think of as a group duel. Choose three skilled men from the Knights and the winning side will win.

The Knights of Yurius are all superiors. Beatrice and Haynes won't be too hard to get two wins right away.

The problem was the third general tournament. This system prevented certain knights from performing well in the ballet with only a few outstanding knights.

The condition is that knights already famous on the continent or executive knights with any position in the knights cannot enter. Of course, even a general article couldn't do well with a dizzy talent pool.

“Well, what do you expect your overall performance to be? ”

“To be honest, I think we could use some good luck. Apart from the Golden Lion Knights, we can send elites from the North to preach general war, so it's quite a triumph. ”

“As expected, the problem is the Grand Duke's Knights? ”

“That's right. If you're not meeting them early, it's worth it if you're lucky enough to get to second place." ”

In fact, that was an unbelievable result for the half-year founding Knights. But Yurius wanted to break the Grand Duke's nose on this occasion.

‘Cause there's no way that old man wouldn't try something like this. ’

The Grand Duke was not one to let his knights triumph. He will try to thoroughly defeat his knights, whether frontally or forthwith, in order to break his strength this time.

Neither second nor third place mattered. Because his defeat by the Knights of the Grand Duke is demoralizing the Emperor himself.

The emperor believed in Yurius, but on the one hand he was worried. The summit of the Ballad is called the double-edged sword.

* * *

“You wanted to see me?”

It's been a long time since the Northern War that the Grand Duke has summoned his shadow again.

“Some of you need to go to the imperial ballet this time. ”

Dmitri and others became curious expressions. Don't you already have the Golden Lion Knights, the official knights of the Grand Duke?

“Actually, I need you to join the Golden Lion Knights temporarily. ”

“Ah!”

Then they make an elastic move. It's because they've discovered the Grand Duke's intentions.

“Dmitri first! I trust you won't fail this time. ”

“Thank you for the opportunity again! ”

In addition, the Grand Duke pointed out several shadowy executive knights.

‘In fact, the child did not want to use this amount against the prince, but he should be prepared in case. ’

He smiled in repentance. He has eyes and ears, too. Most of the First Prince's Knights were misguided to his eyes, but he thought he knew enough that some of the knights were incompetent.

‘Maybe the Horseback Spearman is trying to win a grand prix or a regular tournament... but I can't give them both away. ’

The Imperial Musketeer's Flower was, of course, a prime tournament for top knights. The scores for the Horseback Riding were not very high.

In fact, the Grand Duke was not that worried about Prime. He trusted the Golden Lion Knights as much as the shadow.

The reason he summoned the shadow was entirely to win the regular tournament. Knights bred from shadows were, of course, of little fame.

Says he can temporarily join the Golden Lion Knights and impersonate them in the tournament as a regular knight.

The Grand Duke thought Yurius was being highly regarded. If the opposing Pokémon is lucky enough to face the opponent, it's also expected to be in the final.

But when he thought about it, he had slightly deflected his pride and made it this far, with little chance of losing the tournament.

All of the Shadow Commander Knights were skilled enough to make a master or deputy commander.

‘It's not bad to step on the Knights of the First Prince this time. ’

As soon as you create a Knight, if you are overwhelmed by him at the first career dance, you will truly be able to see the face of the Emperor and the Imperial officials and the damn First Emperor.

* * *

A week after Yurius' shocking proclamation of total victory! The list of participants in the tournament has finally been announced.

“Think of the Horseback Spear Battle as an experience and come without any pressure. However, knights participating in the tournament will be trained separately! ”

The knights began to examine the list in the middle of the training ground with curious eyes.

[Prime Tournament Participant List]

Beatrice Dios

Haynes Brewing

…….

I didn't need to see it so far. Of course, the Knights from 1st to 10th ranked in their existing order. There are three races, but a total of ten have to go because of the knights' health or injury problems.

However, the knights who saw the list in the regular tournament had no choice but to twist their eyes.

[General tournament participant list]

Bernard Caines

…….

Yurius von Charnos

The person listed at the end of the list was surprisingly Yurius himself. As the list got closer and closer, the chances of entry were slim, but it was quite surprising for the royal family to enter the competition as if he were a regular knight.

“Caine, you're a skilled friend, but you'll be joining us? ”

“I'm sure there won't be any big problems according to the regulations.... ”

“Are you trying to provoke us? ”

All new knights tilt their heads, but the knights who follow him from the north nod as if they understood.

"Indeed... if you go out there yourself, you can expect to win."

Few still know the face of Yurius. His specialty in the North is his ability as a commander.

The training of Squad Leader knights is also invisible to the common knights, so the new knights don't know much about Yurius' unmanned status except Caine.

Of course, everyone who knew exactly what he was doing was on his side.

“A regular tournament is like 3: 3, right? You only need 2 wins. Don't we have one friend who can help us win almost unconditionally? ”

Haynes smiles bitterly.

“You speak of Lord Caine. At a certain rate, you'll be able to compete with the Knights of the Golden Lion's dazzling executive knights if you stay strong for the rest of your time. ”

And even when Yurius said he was going out himself, he didn't stop him. He lost quite a few frozen knights in the North, didn't he? It was a bit convenient, but it was the Grand Duke who walked in the water first.

“If you go out on your own, I'm sure you won the overall championship. ”

‘There are other benefits to that. ’

Yurius smiles inside. Of course, this was the story of the time when the ballet would normally return. In order to destroy the Grand Duke's handiwork, he had to do something.

Speechless.

“I'm sure you all have a lot of questions, but I need you to trust me now."

The rookie knights also took Yurius' expression seriously again. In fact, even though it was half a year, Yurius was a fair and exemplary boss to them.

‘At first, I wasn't a knight with great expectations. If His Majesty says so, we will follow him. ’

The Knights' training has since turned into a special training for the fighting pits.

“Regular knights first focus on training for horseback riding. If you don't get some grades there, you won't be able to win the whole thing. ”

Of course, one of the common articles was the exception.

Yurius smiles and points at him.

“Lord Caine, I'm going to extend your special training time, of course. ”

“Got it……. ”

It was an unfortunate thing for him to do, but he had high hopes for him in the regular tournament.

Do you have two months left? ’

This year's imperial ballet was approaching a time when so many words and so many talents would be held.
