Go back in time for a while.

It's in the back room.

I was in front of three guys, Rio, Illis and Mayfa, lecturing them on how to fight in the finals.

"─ So as Jake and Dorothy can still work it out, the problem is" Rigid Sword ”Adolf. Clearly, this guy is stronger than any of you three."

That's what I said, I'll put a pen round the name "Adolph" on the back of the tournament schedule booklet.

The godchildren who saw it all looked equally difficult.

One of them, Rio says with a slight discontent, pointing his mouth.

"But, brother, you have to actually try that, don't you? I didn't feel like he was faster than me watching the game."

"Right. If it's just agility, I think Rio is better."

"Then come on."

"But it's only a small difference. And arm strength and battered strength are extraordinarily higher in Adolf than in Rio. I also have the skill of a sword. If you think you can do it, I don't care what you do."

He listened to my words and bent his mouth to the letter to Rio Habu.

Look around the three of them.

Then Mayfa said "... yes, brother" and raised her hand.

When I nominate him, Mayfa says in a mouthful like announcing her name proposal.

"... If you can't win one-on-one, you can do it three-on-one.... Just knock the other two out and the two of them will join the ranks. … so you can win"

Mayfa is good at it, humming her nose.

But to that, Rio pinched his mouth in dissatisfaction.

"But defeating one of the three isn't cowardice as some kind of brave man? Whatever the demon king's opponent is, he's also a brave man. I think that's against the spirit of bravery. So we're no different from them, are we?

"... that's not true.... originally three to three, nothing is cowardly"

"Yeah. I know what Rio's talking about, but it's a team fight, and don't think that's what it's all about"

Sprinkled by Mayfa and Illis, Rio pointing his mouth at it again as if it didn't seem funny.

I saw it, and I was blowing my mouth off.

As a matter of reason, Mayfa and Illis are right, but Rio's upright feelings are also smiling.

Rio asks me how I'm still not convinced.

"Hey, what do you think of your brother? Don't you think it's cowardly that brave men are three-on-one?

I thought about it for a moment and then I answered to Rio.

"Well...... right. It may seem dastardly, and if I say it's against the spirit of bravery (bravership), it might be, depending on the way you think. If you don't want to be a cowardly brave man, you might want to stop thinking about knocking him down three on one."

"Right!? Look, even your brother said this!

Rio to be good at and Muffy Mayfa.

Ilis is in a position to flatter both of us by saying "Fair enough".

Now Mayfa asks me how swollen she is.

"... then how do you win, brother?... I fought three to three together, and I have to knock them out at the same time, I'll be alone at the end of the day anyway.... I don't care about that, I can't fight"

Mayfa is a rationalist compared to Rio, who tends to capture things in filling.

What you're saying is almost entirely true.

Now I answer to Mayfa.

"No, I think Mayfa's right. Wouldn't it be best to beat the other two first and deal with Adolph for three?

…… ... brother, I don't know about those two tongues.... telling Rio that Rio is right and I'm right is cheating "

Mayfa looks surprised, and she stares at me.

Don't feel cuter than usual when you can stare straight in the eyes.

I put my hand on Mayfa's head like that, and I'll do it with me.

"All right, all right. Mayfa's smart."

"... fuuuuuu.... brother, I don't know about that kind of deception"

Mayfa dyed her cheeks, but she looked up at me with a grudge.

She's cute.

Besides, I'll give Mayfa back her words while she's at it.

"No, I didn't mean to delude you, I didn't mean to use two tongues. That's what I said, if you don't like being a little dastardly brave, you can do what Rio said, and if you want to win, you can do what Mayfa said. Nothing's wrong with you, is it?

Now all three, Rio, Iris and Mayfa, tilted their necks.

Think about it for a second, and then Ilis will listen.

"Uh... does that mean you can win because you can be cowardly, or you can go against the spirit of bravery (bravership)?

"No? I think you guys should choose whichever you want."

"Yeah......? Doctor, I don't know what you're talking about. So you're saying we should lose?

"If that's what you want."

"Mmmm......! Uh-oh, I don't know what the teacher wants to say anymore!

Ilis held his head and smothered.

I laugh hahahaha and do the head of Illis.

Iris said, "Ha ha..." and turned red on his face and got smaller.

I say to the three of you after I release Illis.

"Sometimes it means you can't get all the results you want, which way you chose. In that case, we have to decide for ourselves what to choose and take on the consequences. The three of us discuss it and decide what to do. When I get here, I won't talk anymore."

That said, I left the rest to the three of us.

By the way, I lay low about my battle with Cyrus.

The contents of my battle with Cyrus is that if my godchildren win, I will ask them what they want when they return to King's Landing, but if they don't get results, be prepared.

Well, I don't really think the Cyrus one keeps his word to discipline, and even if it isn't, you don't want to mix my circumstances with the decision of the three of us.

I'm already... I'm not sure, but I was happy.

I'm a lot satisfied they just brought these guys this far.

I think these guys will be able to live without me anymore, and I've more or less taught them what I can teach them...

At first, I wanted to raise these guys with my hands until they became the strongest braves in the world.

That means you don't have to think about it, but these guys are going to outsmart me.

I've been noticing lately that I don't have much confidence in the teenage girls to be a teacher full of people who haven't outdone their strengths in front of me.

Even if it's not jealous, it's going to be humiliating.

You'll also want to say one of your grudges toward heaven about what is the difference in talent.

Well, I don't know... if I let go of my hand now, I guess I'll be a "respected teacher" in these guys' minds for the rest of my life, so it's kind of shallow in me.

Either way.

And then there's these guys' own feet, and I think I just need to walk away with my life.

For that reason, I wanted to tell you the last thing I know about how to walk on my own feet.

─ And then.

After finishing the discussion, the three headed to the final.

I didn't dare ask how the three of them were going to fight.

I wanted them to show me their decisions in action.
