I was hoping this would happen someday if I used a lot of magic... but I didn't know that the Knight Commander himself wanted to deal with it personally...

However, unlike other people, one thing I can feel safe about is that this person is self-centered.

No matter what kind of battle you show, you won't make things rough.

- Maybe.

"How do you fight?

"Serious one-on-one match. I'm the sword, you're the magic. Leave me alone as long as you like. ― ― Newcomer championship in London, confrontation with" Abyss ", fight against vampires. I want to learn from your experience."

The eyes are serious.

Seriously, I'm trying to use my sword against magic.

"--I don't know if I regret it."

"Where you want it. I'm glad you've learned a lot and come home. [M] Most sorcerers wash their feet out of magic when I fight them.... you'll endure it, won't you? Rookie"

Eledin laughs invincibly.

I wonder how many promising magicians have been destroyed so far.

Terrible… We need to alert everyone in London.

Don't let the Knights catch you.

Then Kuro gently talks to me.

"Hey, you okay, Gil? Fight him. I don't know what I can do if I break my pride."

"I said that I'm going there properly... I just wanted to say...."

Probably not a single rope.

Don't forget Kensei even if you rot.

There is a fundamental difference between swordsmanship and magic in this era.

The difference between swordsmanship and magic - it means that swordsmanship has no history of retrogression from the Dark Ages.

The crystal of one technique, "magic", built up by our time, retreated once and for all to the era of sorcerer rejection, the Dark Age. In addition to the information Kuro taught me, this is also the fact that I have met various magicians and felt it on my skin.

Of course, that's not all I can say. Mutations happen all the time, and it's no wonder there are prominent magicians.

But swordsmanship is different.

However, it encourages even training, and the Dark Ages has been polished as the best means of combat, and the technology has been handed over to the cotton industry.

And what are you hiding, Kensei?

It's not like just a swordsman.

Kensei is the most powerful title given to the best swordsmen of his time.

In fact, Kensei Sieg Blood, who fought the demon with us, boasted outstanding combat power among us.

In the progress of magic that clearly transcends human intelligence, Kensei Sieg Blood's swordsmanship was still fading.

A one-to-one battle against the current Kensei as his descendants.

Not only the technology, but the body itself must be specialized in combat.

If I lick it, it may be this one who gets my neck removed.

"... well, I know what Gil said. That man has abnormal vitality. So, well, not so bad."

Almost.

"Are we done talking?

Eledin raised one eyebrow slightly relentlessly and asked.

"... yeah. Well."

"Okay, let's go."

Eledin smiles nicely.

◇ ◇ ◇

Kuro and I are leaving Knights headquarters about Eledin.

As you exit the courtyard and enter the Knight Training School grounds, you will see a number of facilities.

The apprentice knights, who are thought to have crossed the road, greet Eledin.

Eledin answers annoyed with one hand raised to yes.

Then, after greeting Eledin once and for all, my gaze slightly shifts.

Whatever you think, it's worth it...

Who is this guy? Or a new knight? I wonder if they think so.

No, or are London uniforms noticeable?

I certainly can't see the magician around.

Of course, it's a Knight Training School site.

Knights and sorcery school students, and beautiful adult women.

It is only natural that it should attract attention.

In such a gaze, Eledin stepped forward and entered a facility hung with a sign saying "training ground".

It is divided into several pieces, each room lined with wooden men and training swords. The scene is quiet and unattended inside.

I guess I usually train in swordsmanship here by myself.

"Here, here. All right, you've already paid."

Eledin enters the Training Ground and heads towards the Rack lined with wooden swords.

Grab a few and lift the fullest edge of the wooden sword, gently gesturing a few times.

"Yeah, okay. Let's do this."

"Eh, aren't you serious?

Eledin then looks strange.

"What are you talking about, training? If you're serious, you're going to die."

"Well, that's right, haha...."

No, no, my old habits...

I would train, but the game is serious and serious... and it's stained with it.

It is hard to escape the idea that people grow up in the battle for life.

I was able to correct that thought circuit to some extent in London, but when I step outside, I still can't feel a thing back then.

"By the way, you don't have to fight me, Kensei."

Kuro laughed slightly like a provocation and leaned against the wall with his arms together.

"I don't want to do this with you... but I don't think that's exactly why I'm training, not with you. I don't know if I'm having any trouble right now, but the vampires are trying to be enemies, and if I'm killed by vampires in this room, it's panic."

Kuro looks at me with an applause, pointing to Eledin.

"I'm surprised he's so stupid. That's what Kensei calls it."

The remark was a normal feeling for Kuro, but it was simply too provocative. It's like Eledin admitted to losing in the dark.

Eledin's face was laughing, but she seemed annoyed.

Hey, I'm the one who's gonna take the tip...
