Master of the brave.

Go to Interchapter Epilogue - Chapter III

The giant of Verdalos dissolves and disappears into space like a scatter of sand grains.

Eventually, as the dust was blown into the wind and completely extinguished, the tension dissipated from Winn's body as he watched as the sword was shaken off.

Exhale loudly as you squeeze out of your lungs, kneeling both knees to the ground. and the light that was enveloping Wynn's body faded away along with

"Brother!

Letty jumped running to that back.

"Oops... Ouch, Letty, Ouch!

Roll the gobbles and meadows so they can hang together.

"Holy crap..."

Olt opened his mouth to a sigh of sigh as he watched the rolling children.

"Totally taken by those kids..."

"Absolutely... oh man, what a report"

The man of the Wizard also spills his sigh.

Winn and Verdalos one hit.

The battle begins with the battle of the knights with a highly collaborative reward, a battle reminiscent of Winn and Verdalos as if they were dancing.

Even veteran adventurers fought so hard to get their hands on.

Super fast fights that can only get in the way of Winn's foot clumps or the other way when he hands poorly - no gap for the rest of us to get in - no, only this again kids named Letty and Iferina were able to intervene.

Sadly, the adults just didn't want to keep seeing how it went.

I scratched my head with Gashigashi and headed to where Olt had Winn and Letty rolling.

I noticed a sign. Winn wakes up his torso and raises his face.

Hey, Olt dropped his fist on Winn's head.

"... Huh!

"Running alone... the adventurer is a lifelike species. I'm just as timid as I am."

Win holding his head down.

When Letty stood up to shelter Winn, she glanced up at Olt's face with a few tears and opened her mouth to get stuck in words.

Olt was smiling.

I stroke Winn's head wildly with a wasp.

"Well done, Winn"

"Ehehe"

Winn also smiles as he rubs the beaten spot. And, at the same time, Winn fell on the spot.

The grass underneath my body feels cold.

It is very comfortable for a body that was heavily moving and lighting its body in battle.

Consciousness turns dark as it is.

"Brother!?

I look at Winn, who stopped moving with his eyes closed, and Letty panics and tries to shake Winn's body. But at some point Poulat, who had walked over, grabbed that hand.

"It's okay, I just went to bed"

Letty looks up at Poulat's face.

Then I tilted my little neck with a strange face and saw Wynn.

And he nodded small.

The next time I opened my eyes, Winn was lying down with a blanket hung on a soft fur cloth, not on the grass.

"Oh, that?

For a moment, I don't know where you are.

I patted my eyes and then looked around to figure out where I was.

It's Laura's house.

Firewood is crushed in the enclosure and burning as the firepowder is raised.

Looking beside him, Letty was asleep trying to stick perfectly to Winn.

"Oops, are you up?

"Mr. Poulat?

"Is there anything that hurts? Letty was worried because she suddenly collapsed. Well, I thought I was fine, but I often hear that it was getting cold later because of the bad beating. If there's anything wrong with you, tell me."

"Yeah, my body hurts a little, but it seems fine. Where are we?"

"It's Mr. Laura's house. I'm boiling water and going to the old man of the Wizard."

"The old man of the Wizard......" Ah! Is that dog weird haha!?

"Calm down, it's okay. You knocked him out."

With that said, Poulat offers Winn a wooden cup.

"Drink up, it'll warm you up."

It was warmed milk.

I only wake up my upper body and try to sip and drink.

"What about Letty?

"I was up on your side until just now, and I fell asleep. He was using something kind of magical, and you must be tired. I've been trying so hard."

"Oh well."

I drank milk and the warmth from the bottom of my belly made me feel more comfortable.

And I remember when I fought Verdalos.

My body was light.

I saw an attack to be launched.

Until now, I was able to easily dismiss attacks that I didn't think I could even see.

The sword I was gripping was also light.

As I stepped in, my body accelerated explosively.

In an instant I was able to pack the time.

I could manipulate my body with my sword as I please.

(Is it because of Letty?

I'll stroke Letty's head to keep her awake,

"... n"

Little Letty moves in.

"Oh, um..."

That's when I heard a small voice coming from the entrance to the house.

Iferina was peeking inside the house with only her face on. I stopped trying to say something, and it had been a while, but when I looked straight at Winn and Poulat as I eventually decided to,

"Thank you so much"

"Ooh."

"Good for you."

Poulat raised one hand to Yferina as she lit up, and Wynn laughed and showed Nico.

Iferina also smiles back.

That was the first smile she had shown in six months since she was attacked by the village.

Iferina approaches Tokotoko and Wynn.

We talked for a while, but eventually when we got together and went outside, we started playing with pebbles lined up on the ground and doing something like a game.

Iferina stares at Winn's hand explaining how to play with a serious look.

Letty woke up there.

There's no sign of Winn, who should have been asleep beside him.

"Brother, where?

"I just left."

Poulat teaches Letty to look around the house looking for Winn and not even big enough.

Letty, who went outside as she was told, found two people playing.

"Leena, sloppy!

"Come on, Letty, too. Let's play together."

He revealed his young jealousy, and Wynn waved and called the muffled Letty.

Letty mumbles, but mingles with the two of us.

The oats and Laura stared silently as they returned from the outside.

"Mr. Ort...... I think I'll take that kid"

"It's Fae, isn't it? I'm sure it's hard to do something, though?

"It's okay. Even interracial children are children. We can play together. I don't think you can have kids and not with me and that kid."

Letty, who was grumbling at some point, was also seriously challenging the game.

Apparently, Winn won the game.

Letty had a little tear-eyed, but the next thing I know, Iferina and I started playing games.

Winn looks at it from the side.

"I hope you never lose your smile from that girl again..."

"Right."

The cheers of the children rode in the wind and crossed the meadow.

"Something happened."

To the old story Winn tells, the people who were gathered in one of the rooms of the Simurgh Knights School leak a convincing sigh of relief.

Inside the room were five men: Alfred the Crown Prince and Cornelia the Crown Prince of this Lemursil Empire, Tiara the Great Sage of High Elves, and Lloyds, Winn's direct boss.

Right now, Winn's whole body was wrapped in a pale, white glow.

Tiara said she wanted to try something, and she used the grant magic to Winn.

The magic that knights specialize in - the magic of "physical strengthening" is granted.

"... surprised. I've never seen anyone with less magic so far. So less resistance to magic. The effects of grant magic appear strong"

Tiara asked me if I had ever had experience with grant magic before, and Winn told me about his first experience as an adventurer in action.

"I see. If you combine it with the granting magic user, you'll be able to use your powers."

Hearing from Winn, Alfred nodded satisfactorily.

"When I was nine years old, Her Royal Highness Princess Letty Mavis was only seven years old."

"So, what happened after you defeated that dog-headed demon clan?

Alfred has asked with interest.

Demons - that's also the story of defeating the 'named' middle demons in their childhood.

Though the later brave men and those who became their masters, it would be an incredible story to understand.

Winn tells Alfred about the backdrop of his battle against Verdalos.

Two days after that incident, the Olts and Poulat, Wynn and Letty returned to the Adventurers Guild and shared their rewards.

Rather than that, Winn was to receive most of the rewards.

The Olts and Poulat gave the rest of the reward to Wynn when they received only the necessary expenses to get rid of the Goblin.

The only amount Laura can pay is to the extent that the Demon opponent doesn't deserve it.

Later, a man of the Wizard, who fought together as an additional reward, brought me a gratuity from the country with a seemingly sorry face.

"Hi, it looks like you're trying to keep this from happening up there."

It took the information from the Adventurer Guild lightly and ignored the Devil's leap in the eyes and nose of the Empire - it also committed the malfunction of ignoring information that could lead to a crisis of national annihilation called the Middle Devil Nation.

The Wizard and the only surviving knight will also be sent to the front line with a combined mouth seal.

Having become inconvenient for the upper management, they no longer have a place in this imperial capital.

"It will probably be a move in the near future. Before that, I tried my best to make sure that you were paid a little bit of gratuity... but after all, I'm sorry I couldn't pay you a large sum"

Winn and Letty's defeat of the Demon Clan did not report to the Knights in the thoughts of Olt and the Demon Mentor.

Especially the power of Letty - that power that's not an ordinary interrogation that only what you see.

We're both still too young, so we could definitely be used for good first.

Everyone nodded at this opinion.

The more I learned about the reality of the upper realm of the Empire, the stronger the thought became.

There's no way I'm paying my revenge on the children who have been the benefactors of my life.

Sometimes he had also been advised by the magician, who examined the investigation of this case and the characteristics of those involved, that it was better not to be involved with regard to Letty.

In the end, he only told the truth to Luria, the guild's receptionist, and the guild master, ostensibly exorcising the goblins, and Olt ended up making recommendations to the guild when he used Winn and Letty as one-serving adventurers.

"- An adventurer who says its oat or something. Pretty eye-catching. And what happened to that wizard?

"I'm sorry. That's it..."

At the time, Winn, who was a child, doesn't even know what happened to him.

I don't even know his name in the first place.

"Well, I'd like to look into this a little bit. There's been a lot of interest."

Lloyds nodded small at Alfred's words.

"So what happened to the winged child?

"She was picked up by a woman named Laura. I think we're still living together..."

"Your Highness. It's better not to think about holding a wingman. Whatever their free will, if they are forced to serve it, they will be at war with the Wingman"

For a moment, Tiara nailed Alfred with some thoughtful look on his face.

"Wingman and war, that's just not frightening. But, well, I'm not trying to force people to live in peace either. Though a wingman, if you live in the city of our country, the people are the people."

(Plus, I had a face-to-face with the brave and the coincidental. If you do poorly, you can turn the brave against the enemy. You can't cross such a dangerous bridge.)

"Well, as I leave the wingman thing alone. So it's time to go back to earlier? I'm asking you to be my sister, Cornelia's squire, so what do you say? Do you think he'll serve as a squire?

Tiara was granted flesh-enhanced magic, and continued to observe the wins wrapped in pale light as she groping from front to back.

"His Highness Cornelia is a granting magic user. It should go well with the granting wizard for wins where magic is inherently scarce"

At first, when asked, "Would you like to be Cornelia's squire," Winn couldn't understand instantly.

I thought it was a mistake to ask.

Anyway, there are only heavenly people around.

I was nervous about the bees.

No, that's what Cornelia and Leticia are supposed to be, but if they also become royalty who don't usually have a chance to deal with them, they get nervous with Winn.

But again, what Alfred said showed me earlier words weren't misheard.

"I wish it wasn't only compatible with the granting magic, but also with men and women"

"Huh?"

"Your Highness!"

"Brother!

Cornelia unexpectedly raised a protest to Alfred about Alfred's bomb statement, then turned bright red and glanced down after he turned his eyes to Winn.

"Ahaha, I'm kidding. Joke!"

"Your Highness, would you please not bully my men too much"

Lloyds, standing obliquely behind Alfred, glanced sideways at Alfred as he sighed.

"'Cause he's getting too grumpy. I was just trying to break the tension."

and to Alfred, who says with a gentle laugh,

"Don't be impotent."

And in a grumpy tone, Lloyds snapped.

"Normally, there is no people who are not nervous when dealing with the royal family"

"I'm sorry, Uncle Elsted. Well, that brings us back to that, Mr. Wynn. I want you to be my sister, the princess's squire."

"Is that... something different from a knight? What exactly is your job?

"Simply put, you're the Empress's escort. I wonder if I should call it SS. Originally chosen from the brains of the Kingsguard."

"SS............"

Winn saw Cornelia only for a moment.

A girl who, while in her capacity as a princess, allowed me to call her a friend because she was a contemporary student.

Cornelia was staring at Wynn in silence.

"How can it be me?

"One is that Cornelia is someone she trusts. And I guess the biggest reason is that you're the master of that brave man."

"Win."

Tiara's deep blue blue blue blue eyes stared at Wynn.

"We Elves are very interested in a person named Win Bird - the master of the brave. It's the same for races and nations other than us."

"Lord Great Sage is right."

Alfred nodded and put his hands on his desk.

"Your influence on Lord Brave is too great. Leave it like this with the Knights, and I'll be honest with you and say I'm in trouble."

"No, I..."

"Win Bird"

Lloyds spoke to Winn looking down so he could nod.

"My appreciation of you in the Empire, though the master of the brave, is nothing but a cadet of civilian origin. It just so happens that childhood familiarity was a brave and lucky treat. But when you go outside the empire, it's not a story. The title of master of the brave is immense. That brave man just breaks one knee and drips his head off. This isn't normal."

"Not what you think, but what Leticia thinks of you. Leticia wields the power of the brave if you wish. In other words, the power of the brave will be entrusted to you too"

That's what I'm talking about.

Alfred nodded at Tiara's words.

"The power is so great that it can rock the world. It is hesitant to leave those who hold that power with the Knights. For better or worse, the Knights are a class society, and it is difficult to refuse when commanded. It's hard to say, but unfortunately, I can't even flatter you that all of the knights are public and just figures. So I want you to put yourself in a difficult position to be used by others, Cornelia's squire."

"... is that an order?

"I don't like it, it's not an order."

Alfred smiled bitterly.

"As I said at the beginning, I'm not a Win Knight candidate today - no, if you can take it, it will be provisionally written - but I'm talking to Win Byrd, the master of the brave, as the crown prince of this empire. I respect your will. [M] If you don't want to, you can say no."

I turned my gaze like Lloyds was stunned at Alfred with a grin.

(Don't be impotent. There's no way a civilian can turn down the royal word)

"Cornelia has not yet turned eighteen, so there are still restrictions on her official duties as a royal family. But you can't be more irrelevant to all official duties than being royal. Your mission is to escort you then. Cornelia will be the only one who can give orders to you. [M] Sometimes it helps if you are accompanied by someone with the title of master of the brave."

"We, the Elves, who are neutral to the watchmen, will take office so that the Empire does not use you unilaterally"

"Cornelia is a user of grant magic. You are lucky to be born poor with magic. [M] There are still a lot of things I'd like to root for to launch as a full-fledged unit, and for the moment, you'll be the only one."

(Cornelia's squire...)

Normally, this is an honorable story.

Even Kingsguard knights can only be chosen beings, knights who defend the princess of the Lemursil Empire.

This would be one dream for those who aspire to be knights.

Well, even if I say princess, I'm a friend.

It's just that the reason I'm worried about Winn is because of the title 'Master of the Brave'.

I'm not in a position to win on my own merits.

It's like getting one thanks to a girl I happen to know at a very young age, Leticia.

As many knights incidentally lay hands on each other and finally make the promotion, only they will have it on an easy journey.

Is that really okay?

So can you say that Winn's dreams have come true?

"Mr. Wynn."

Cornelia opened her mouth to the lost win.

"You told me about your dream of a knight before. To you, Winn, a knight is a sword that is stronger than anything else, smarter, and never breaks. ally of the weak, and the last shield of his master to protect,"

Like the first time I met him at Knights School, he can't pair up with anyone, and he talks in a lonely, heartfelt tone, just like that time Cornelia begs somewhere for Winn.

"Can't I be the master to protect for you, Winn?
