I Favor the Villainess

"All of you!...... Ju!
Holiday noon.
A temperamental Alea's voice echoes in her home garden.
Alea was bareback with a wooden knife.
"!... Yoonjuku!... Ojo!
"Okay, good luck. You can rest now."
"Yes!
It was a man with light armor in his arms who brutally stroked Alea's head, who replied well.
"Good day, Allea. Thank you, Master Rod."
"Whoa, never mind."
I told the two of them on the table I had set up on the terrace, preparing tea and snacks.
Nodded to Eagle Deep is now Lord Rod away from royalty.
Having renounced his right to inherit the throne and become the head of the army, he thus comes to play fluttering from time to time, good that his identity has become a citizen.
"Ray, look at you!?
"I was watching. Good luck."
"It's a joke!
I also wiped the sweat off my beloved daughter, who came breathing with an excited face.
Allea does that tickling, but she seems satisfied with what she has done.
"That's your boy. Nice muscle."
Master Rod lifted Allea cleverly with one hand and started to stay high and high.
Alea is perfectly happy.
Blood is not connected, though.
"I guess so, but it's so strange that blood isn't connected. I feel the nature of the battle from him."
To Lord Rod's words, it makes me happy, not only Alea, but even me.
Master Rod is teaching Alea the sword.
In this world where the threat of demons exists, Alea, who cannot use magic, must defend herself by another means.
I don't think we have any ties as long as we live in Bauer, but they also have such things as Demons in this world.
I talked to Master Rod about the means of self-defense, and he told me that he would put on an archery.
Dear Rod, who used to fight the magical subjects, but since he became head of the army, he has also been training his swords indispensably.
Originally, the princes were tattooed with basic white martial arts to protect themselves.
It is gratifying to ask such a Rod to teach.
Still, Demons, huh?
A race I only saw in the game in settings, but will I encounter one day if I live in this world?
I need to think about measures.
"Am I suffering from cancer?
"Whoa. You're gonna be stronger than me. Come on, you might reach the realm of the Sword God."
"Kenshin?
Alea tilted her neck to a word she was unfamiliar with hearing.
"It's about the strongest swordsman. Specifically, you're the emperor of the Nah Empire."
"Are you sure?"
"I don't know how far the rumor is, but if it's true, he's smashed one of Suse's battalions with only his sword."
A battalion is one of the units in the army, referring to a force of roughly three hundred to a thousand people.
It may seem like a boulder to see such a large number of people with just a sword, but I know that rumor is true.
About that, I'll see you later.
"How long is this going to last?
"Yeah, well, you're the best in the world."
"Better than you, Rod?
"I regret it, but I guess so."
"Claire, hey, hey, Ray, hey, hey. Better than you?
"No magic. Right."
"Manaria, better than you!?
"I hear Manaria has sword moves."
Alea is shining her eyes.
The name of the light that dwells there is a vision.
"Can I be a pain in the ass if I try?
"Whoa, you could be. But we have to do a cup of that."
"I'll do my best!
With that said, Allea resumed her bareback again.
Master Rod and I smiled and dropped it off.
"... it just seems like it's all Alea and it's sloppy"
It is May who is swelling his cheeks.
May sits in the garden and closes her eyes still.
"May's training now, isn't she?
"Stuff!
Lady Claire smiles bitterly at Mae, who is about to have an eclampsia early.
What May is doing now is first-stage training to use magic.
The hardest part about using magic is the process of grasping the feeling of magic.
It's not the cartoon line I used to read, but I can't do it for the rest of my life without taste.
No matter how much May is a quadcaster, you can't use any magic unless you get past this stage.
"Look, concentrate."
"Mmm..."
Master Claire tells me to keep meditating, May.
For May, who loves to move her body, it would be an unparalleled ordeal.
"That you don't feel like heat inside your body?
"Hmmm...... I don't know......"
"There's no rush. Slowly, slowly, at Mae's pace."
"Ugh..."
The sense of magic is a very abstract thing.
If vocabulary develops, it will help us understand, but Mae is only six years old at any rate.
It is more impotent to understand.
"The feeling of magic... right? It's close to the feeling that Mae feels in her body when she's very happy."
"When you're happy?
"Yeah, it's like my heart's boiling, my chest's leaping, it's like that."
"Hmm."
Nevertheless, I am not the one who gives up there with Master Claire.
I have started teaching magic at the college, and her teaching methods are much better than before.
Learning a theory that wasn't just a feeling, it was an order, so you could figure out how it was easier to pass on to the other person.
Since she is originally a wise Claire, it won't be about that distant future for May to acquire magic.
"... I don't know!!
But that doesn't seem to be today.
Shouting out loud, May fell asleep in the big letters.
"It's not something you can wear in a day or there. I can't help it."
Lady Claire came straight to the terrace when she hugged May, who was completely obstinate.
"Good day, May. And Lady Claire."
"... maho, I can't grab it"
"You won't be able to do it any time soon. Let's not rush off, shall we?
"Ha ha! The second quadcaster in history, too, is there still time to blossom!
Master Rod laughs lavishly.
May looked annoyed at the voice.
"I'll be able to grab it soon!
"Oh, yeah?
"Rod, it's hard because you're all Alea!
"May, are we the ones who asked Master Rod to train Alea?
"I don't know!
May has completely bent his navel.
"Ha ha! You hated me! Good. When the magic's ready, come hit me first."
"Yikes!
May's evil, too, Master Rod takes it with a laugh.
As always, he's a deep nostalgic.
"Dear Rod, how have you been?
"An example of a large-scale surgical experiment has begun. Fine, busy."
What Master Rod calls a massive surgical ceremony seems to be the new magic he developed.
Says you can't beat Manaria anymore, huh?
"Later, we've been dealing with a strangely frequent earthquake. Trauma is a good place for the King."
"Oh, you've been going on lately."
According to the original knowledge, there should be no aftershocks related to the eruption of Sassar volcano, but thanks for the many earthquakes in recent months.
As much as the eruption of the Sassal volcano triggered the revolution, anxiety seems to be spreading that it will happen again among the citizens because it is a very unpleasant memory for the King's people.
Nevertheless, earthquake preparedness, as we have previously touched upon, could not even be fully addressed in Japan in the twenty-first century.
Apparently there are only a few things I can do in the kingdom right now, and Master Rod is haunting my head.
"Other than that, there are different parts of diplomacy involved."
"The military is in diplomacy?... It's not a noisy story, is it?
Mr. Claire looked worried about Mr. Blur Rod's words.
Since the new regime in the kingdom has stabilized, Master Claire and I have both withdrawn ourselves from the political arena.
I only know what diplomacy the kingdom is carrying out today to the extent that it is told in the newspapers.
"Well......, sort of. In a moment, we might be bothering the two of you again. I will try not to."
"Please don't. It's what gets in the way of Lady Claire and my lovely days."
"Ray."
Lady Claire treats me like I look annoying.
"Ha ha! You two look happy. No, above all. But I'll be waiting for you whenever I get screwed, Ray."
"Persistent men don't like you."
"Ha ha!
I laughed and was deluded.
I mean, this guy hasn't given up yet.
"Well, whatever the joke is, after that (revolution) happened. Don't let the happiness of our citizens be threatened as much as possible."
Mr. Rod, who looked uncommonly complicated, said so and rinsed his tea.
Claire and I looked at each other and felt that the clouds were getting suspicious.
