Hachinan tte, Sore wa Nai Deshou! (WN)

The night before the 16th martial arts competition.

"At all, that house ..."

The next day, I was reporting the results of yesterday's matchmaking to Bleichrader.

Even if you say , it's impossible to break.

When and where do you do the formula?

The main report was the content of the story with Mr. Friede.

And of course, that story comes out.

The Baumai Sweater headed out of the Baumeister family with only assistance, and did not even call in when the independence became possible.

It is a case that no copper coin was returned for the amount of aid.

"Did you not know?"

"It's the same as Erich's celebration, and we don't share the facts."

As the Baumeister family of the royal city, they were able to obtain a heritable job in the next generation, so they did not mind paying back.

Rather than, he would have thought that he would not want to be hawked again.

"Because it is a name of aid, it is not exactly a debt, is it?"

Still, if the development of the territory progresses and you can afford it, it is a good idea to return without interest.

This is not an exaggeration to say that nobles are right.

No, it was natural as a person.

"Because I got the job, I would have missed even a hand to go to that house to repay it."

Even if you send a letter and have a hard time sending people.

Once my parents say, "I can't return anything that's missing."

If you have such a hand, I think I will devote myself to forest protection.

Because job stability brings about the stability of life for the next generation and beyond.

"I don't think I'll give you money in anticipation of that."

Lend and borrow money that only the narrow parties know, and do not return it confidently.

It could be said that it was a kind of scam.

Even if the amount is not borrowed.

"In addition, is there any possibility that your job title will be stingy?"

"Yeah, because some of you might be exaggerating and trying to scandal."

Get caught in the clan because there are dirty people in the clan and they can pull your job.

As your successor, what about your home?

Neat aristocrats seem to do all this to get the job they want.

"Taking that into account, nothing is said ..."

"It looks good as a result."

The Baumeister family, who did not do so, worked hard on forest protection, resulting in a wealthy knighthood.

I think that my parents' home should be a bit of an apprenticeship.

"I will appear in the ceremony. And then ..."

Although it is strictly confidential, it seems to be necessary to repay the aid that my parents have not returned to the royal city of Baumeister with alimony.

"It's a secret, but the two families are out of bounds in that regard. Is it a celebration again ..."

You face the same problem as when you were Erich.

Even Paul, an independent knight is to be backed by Military Edgar.

Naturally, the ceremony required a celebration.

"All, I ..."

"No, I will. I'll do it for Baron Bauister."

Bleichrader Marsh also has pride as a close relative, as the southern largest influential person.

All had declared to pay.

"Our accounting book is all debt of the Baumeister family."

It was unclear how much it would cost, but it would definitely be the one that would put the Baumeisters in trouble when they actually came down.

"Do you want repayment?"

"I think you have to be silent to think about our predecessor charges."

In both cases, the problem was dust when hit.

Still, it is written in the book, and the repayment is not prompted only because of an instruction from Breichrader Margin.

It had the potential to become a big bomb in the future.

"I think that's fine. By the way, are you going to the martial arts competition?"

"Something seems to be forced ..."

It is common sense that nobles go to martial arts competitions hosted by the kingdom at least once.

As always, my home is an exception.

"Will you say when you are appointed by a noble in this country?"

"It's" My sword is ... "

Even if the main weapon on the battlefield is a bow and a spear, magic is a secret weapon of the tactical and strategic grade, and there is a secret gentleman agreement that the two countries should not do this.

It is said that aristocrats are respected only if they swing their swords brilliantly.

I will leave a delicate matter about how many of the nobles today, including me, can handle the sword properly.

"I also came out when I was young."

It seems that he has participated only once before inheriting the title.

"How was?"

"I'm brilliant in the first round of qualifying. I'm a man with a minuscule sword."

It seems that he was a student who was only told by a sword teacher when he was a child, "Don't just get hurt while practicing."

As expected, I must have been not so bad.

"Even if you lose in the first qualifying round, there's no problem."

"Is that so? Because Breichrader is not a soldier?"

"It doesn't matter whether you're a soldier or not."

As a rule of thumb, you are only told to participate at least once.

Also, there was a causal relationship between grades and career advancement, but if grades were good, it would be added to the assessment, but it seems to be an intermediate commander.

"If you want to be a senior commander, you need a variety of commanding abilities, backlogging abilities, etc."

The generals cut down enemies one after another with their excellent sword skills.

It seems that he loses at the time of the battle situation of, so the sword's arm is less important.

Rather, a person who can arrange a large army, establish a logistical support system including resupply, and conduct commands accurately.

Everything seems to be assessed at the time of the exercise, and if you are not evaluated here, you will not be able to get a job.

"Even if you're good at your arms, you'll be put out before and you're done."

"Well, that's right."

Being a soldier, you need the ability to lead the army to be great.

A mere sword master would end up as a famous adventurer or swordsman or a competent platoon commander on the front line.

"And does Baron Bauister not become a soldier?"

"Yes"

"Then it's okay. Wouldn't it be fine to go through the first qualifying round?"

I feel a little sad, but it doesn't mean that my sword is going to be good.

Breichrader was right.

"I'm glad Baron Bauister has magic to kill dragons. I don't even have that."

In addition, it seems that barbarians and more nobles need not be masters of martial arts, such as swords.

It is rather useless, and it is preferable that such a person be hired.

"If you can do anything, it sounds like you don't like it.

He explained that he was divided into swordsmanship, spearmanship, archery, and martial arts with bare hands or backs.

"Personally, in the bow section ..."

I wasn't embarrassed by some of the best in the kingdom, but I felt like I would get the best results.

"I'm sorry. The aristocrat's head and heir must be in the swordsman section."

Aristocrats are said to be in the swordsmanship category, because my sword is.

"I can't help it. I can't help you ... (Wait. If you make various enhancements with magic ...")

"Ah, let me say. The use of magic and magical power is prohibited in all departments. It's a tournament to see pure skills."

In the words of Breichrader Margin, my last hope shook and fell.

"Is it a martial arts tournament? Certain once came out in the past."

After leaving Braichrader, he returned to the royal capital's mansion with the magic of instantaneous movement, where an armstrong guru was sipping mate while drinking mate tea elegantly.

In fact, this person likes sweets regardless of their appearance, so they eat well.

And at that seat, the topic of the martial arts competition pops out.

"It's painful to ban magic."

"Most people can't use magic."

It's a tournament that shows pure skills and experience, so it seems that magic and magic can be brought in there.

If the guru is serious, any master of the sword will be crushed.

"However, there are some parts where the rules are ambiguous."

Even if the amount of magic power is equal to or slightly higher than ordinary people, there are some people who can add the magic power to their physical abilities well and be strong.

However, such talent is half instinct, so it is difficult to say that you should not use it suddenly.

Since the amount of magic used is small, it seems that these people are being tolerated.

"If a judge measures magic power and finds use that exceeds the average magic power of ordinary people, he will be disqualified."

"I'm doing troublesome things."

We'll be disqualified for a bit of magic.

"Is it pure swordsmanship? You've lost the first qualifying round."

Fortunately, you might win if you hit a commemorative entry noble like me.

But others are professional soldiers who are regulars, knights who belong to the Knights including Konoe, and young people who are apprenticed to strict training every day.

In addition, there are many adventurers and ronins in the field, to name a few.

Only 128 people can participate in the finals.

It was a tough competition where you had to win at least seven times to get through the qualifying.

"Adventurers and ronins are particularly enthusiastic."

Scoring from noblemen is easy to enter the top performers.

As an escort, or as an immediate force to strengthen a small number of lords.

In the absence of this war, it was also the only opportunity that a stranger could serve a noble family.

"By the way, how was your guru?"

"Um. Certainly, my father told me to do swordplay ..."

The mentor seems to be not good at swordplay, but he still has the power, so he went to the fourth round of qualifying.

"It's amazing. Fourth round of qualifying ..."

"Certainly, the fourth round is amazing."

Furthermore, Erich and his brothers, who had a wedding meeting at our mansion, also appeared.

Paul and Helmut are currently busy with their wedding and grooming.

"Is the fourth round amazing?"

"Vell, I was eliminated in the second qualifying round."

When he was just a junior officer, he said that he was a pure boss at the time, saying he was a promiser.

"In the first round, I was hunting down a certain Earl family.

It was a noble bonbon and he was so weak that he won.

Sure, Erich's sword was probably weaker than me.

"By the way, Paul?"

"I went to the third round"

"It is amazing"

"I'm in tournament luck too.

The opponent was an apprentice guard and a trace of a nobleman.

"The mountain next to the tournament. It happened to be a seed because of the number of people. There's a baron's vestige there."

Still, it must be the second round.

Me, Erich and Helmut.

Paul stared at him with respect.

"Indeed, my Baumai Suita family. The level is extremely low ..."

Others seem to be of this kind if they are not of great military ancestry or their parents are not keen on education.

"For reference, I lost the second round, because my opponent was weaker than me in the same guard."

And Helmut seems to be breaking through the first round.

I felt a little pressure.

"It's kind of an exciting story. I want to break through the first round ..."

"Like Paul, it would be a big deal if we could go to the third round, but that's the reality."

Like the hero of some saga, you can easily go to the finals or win the championship and the finals.

Such a thing does not seem to be easy.

I can't have such a scenario originally.

"If you hit a veteran adventurer, you'll know that you can lose easily without fear. Even for those guys, the first place is a miracle."

In addition, even such a terrible skill is powerless against number violence.

It was also the biggest reason that the military would only expect such people to be active on the front line.

"Even if my brother thinks it's that much, wouldn't Elvin, Miss Ena, or Miss Luise go?"

"I think Elvin can do about the fifth qualifying round, depending on the tournament luck."

It seems that you need to break through the fourth round of qualifying to be noticed by the nobles.

Conversely, Paul says that he may have had trouble if he couldn't break through.

"Is Vell's Baron a good place to start up? If Elgin, his vice-president, isn't bad, sales could be intense."

If you were a chief of that level, I should be able to use it.

It seems that there is a possibility that those who are currently looking for a job will hit the grades higher than EL.

"But even if only swordsmanship is strong, right?"

"Oh, that's dangerous if it's just around the corner."

I didn't want to imagine a future where a thug who was sent by an aristocrat whose sword was a rival to an excellent nomad would be stabbed and killed as soon as he hired it.

"Anyway, I'll have to do my best."

Then after talking for a while.

The three brothers came home and went out to see Elle practicing swords hard in the garden.

"Because the tournament is near. Aim for the fifth round of qualifying. Is Vell the first round?"

"Yes, it's just one win."

While watching Ell's practice and talking with Erich, he suddenly screams.

"I am aiming for qualifying!"

For Elle, who is currently learning swordsmanship from Warren, a member of the Knights of the Guards, it seems to be a prerequisite to achieve a good result in this tournament.

"What a sublime goal ..."

"Ena is practicing hard, and Luise is so."

It is said that Eina and Luise have high hurdles because they can only use their magical skills to fight.

In the case of two people, I feel that it is not necessary to achieve such a good result separately.

"I must win."

"Is that so……"

We cheered in our hearts on El desperately waving his sword.

"But the first round barrier ..."

"I wish Vell had tournament luck."

"Really, that's it."

Erich's remarks can be considered quite rude to me, but I didn't care as much as it was.

And the day of the martial arts tournament comes.
