To my favor, they looked a little surprised.

"Are you insane? If I can teach you, it's mainly swordsmanship... but I don't think it's easy for Chris to do it."

"It doesn't have to be a sword move. I want a way to protect myself."

Yes, when I talked to your father, he wanted to learn martial arts, which was implicitly turned down to be unnecessary by the city attorney. I couldn't give it up.

It's only a year and a half to graduate from school, quite a few times a week, and I'll be coming to this lower town. I know that you can wear an escort, but I still want the confidence that I can protect myself a little.

"Well, it's no use working out."

Momentum buoyed the glass, and Mark laughed.

"I'm in martial arts, Selva's in sorcery."

"Yes, it's fine just when you have time. Whatever, just the shape of the foundation."

"Selva, can we go?

"Of course, I'll start by looking at aptitude."

"Ah... thank you very much."

Mr. Selva smiled lightly at me when I lowered my head unexpectedly.

"It's funny how the noble lady wants to protect herself. Besides, it's hard to learn magic from this year, and it's fascinating to be a subject of research."

"Research Object"

"Yeah, kids who usually have high magic traits learn to control magic early on. A kid who didn't fit in, he learns magic when he's close to an adult, right? It's a valuable sample....... yeah, funny"

……

I wonder if you're trying to do something really reckless, me.

"Huh."

Seeing my suspicious behavior move, my gaze wandered unexpectedly, Mr. Mark erupts.

"I'll tell you what, martial arts are just as difficult. I think it's going to be mostly protective techniques, but I'm going to start by building strength and reflexes."

"…… Yes"

"Your body will be moving to a certain extent at the dance, but think of it as something completely different."

"Yes!"

"I don't condone teaching. Just be careful not to scratch, but be prepared for the mole or so where you hide in your dress."

That's all I'm ready for. I nodded forcefully.

"Um, it's a reward."

"Your parents will pay you well for your escort, so no problem."

"I'm asking you to tell me because I'm asking you to."

When he answers that, Mark says, "Well, that's right," he puts up a burger.

Eventually, as a result of the discussion, I was to pay for food and drink in Tails on the day you worked out instead. You don't have to be bothered, and more importantly, I appreciate being able to pay with the money I work for.

Though I didn't think it was supposed to cost me that much, I decided to sweeten them both with courtesy.

By the way, I admire Leo for crushing "er" and "I want to do something too" next door all the time.
