Shinigami ni Sodaterareta Shoujo wa Shikkoku no Ken wo Mune ni Idaku

Two days after the feast of victory was held at Leticia Castle. Under a cloudless blue sky, the three of them - Olivia, Claudia, and Ashton - were walking down Central Street towards the Royal Library. Various dewstores line up at both ends of the road, with prestigious hanging voices. Fever of victory, now it feels like it's not cold.

Even as Ashton, the son of a merchant, I don't hate this atmosphere of cakka and enthusiasm. He said he remembered his parents he hadn't seen in a long time.

"The cakes and treats we had at the castle were delicious. I wonder if I can eat again. I want to eat."

Olivia starts singing her nose, mainly as she peeks into the food store. A gentle breeze stroking his cheeks from time to time swayed brilliant silver hair in the sun.

"You still don't have enough to eat if you want to eat again? You ate some scattered, didn't you?

Seeing as Ashton was exhausted, Olivia raised her voice with her big eyes patted over and over again.

"Ashton, don't you know? Humans, you can eat as much delicious as you want."

"No, no, that's definitely just Olivia. Because no matter how delicious it is, there are normal limits. Lieutenant Claudia was pretty freaked out, too, right?

Ashton asked Claudia to agree to walk next door. They were all pulling on Olivia's healthy showing at the feast seat. At the end of the day, I hear Claudia put up her body to stop Olivia, who tried to bring home the leftover dishes.

I was impressed when he said, 'That's exactly what you're going to say about fire coming out of your face,' with the look on his face.

"Oh, I still can't believe that much food goes into the major's thin body, etc. Yet my body shape remains the same at all. As long as I'm really jealous."

Claudia looked at Olivia as chilling and smiled like she had strained. If you look closely, her left hand is always rubbing around her stomach.

With that trick and what he said now, Ashton pinned.

"Could it be Lieutenant Claudia cares about fat? It's okay. It's still thin enough, and it hasn't sharpened the appeal at all."

I wouldn't know him personally, but Claudia is quite popular among the soldiers. A crisp nose beam and a delicate mouth in the slit long eyes. Not only is it a beauty that everyone acknowledges, but the attitude of indivisible contact with the civilian population is even more appalling. It is natural to say that it will become popular. As fat as it gets, it won't be affected by fine dust either.

As Ashton, it was a pure word.

"─ Ashton Zenefilda -"

Suddenly they call me by my full name. That is a sign of not calm hearts. Besides with an ice smile. Already late when I thought my mouth slipped again. I thought Claudia's right hand was stretching softly, pulling Ashton's ear up thoughtfully.

"I was there! Lieutenant Claudia! Ouch! It hurts! Stop pulling your ears!

As Ashton shouted out loud, a passing woman said, "Are you a brother?" "We're good friends," he said, laughing at Couscous. Claudia coughed one up with Cohon and took her hand off Ashton's ear.

"Huh. How can a man say something so unnecessary? I'm a woman, too. It would hurt just fine if they said something so straightforward. Even if you have a woman you like, she'll shake you right away."

To that word, the heart bounces with tokens. When I rushed to look for Olivia, I was walking back in a way that somehow distanced me from the two of them. Plus, he's got an alert eye on this one.

(What the hell are you on guard for? ─ ─ Ma, I can't help thinking. Olivia's bizarre behavior didn't start now. Glad they didn't listen to the extra stories for now)

Return your gaze to Claudia in a heartbeat.

"Excuse me. That's not what I meant."

"Be a little more careful what you say and do, whether you intend to or not. Take great care when it comes to the appearance of women in particular."

"Yes, I'll be careful from now on"

Ashton bowed his head and apologized.

"Mm-hmm."

Claudia smiles and brutally strokes Ashton's head, which is soothing. It's strange because when you do, you really feel like you're my brother.

(That being said, considering Lieutenant Claudia was really my sister... that would be pretty harsh. I'm going to be preached every time. Anyone who makes Lieutenant Claudia his daughter-in-law is sure to be laid on his ass)

Whimpering rudely in his heart, Ashton looked up into the sky and saw a bird dancing through the sky emitting a peeping sound. This uniquely ringing bird is called the "Spring Bird" and is widely known in the kingdom as a migratory bird that announces spring. It seems that those who farm begin to seed the ringing of the underspring birds into signals.

"It's spring, isn't it?"

"Hmm? ─ Oh, right. It's a season where every life moves."

Claudia also looks up into the sky and opens her mouth somewhere emotional.

"You know what? You'll get lots of delicious prey in spring. Giant grizzlies on big black lizards. Bloodsucking bird on a manta pig. And..."

At some point Olivia, who was walking next door, spoke as she did the trick of setting up a bow. By the way, all the beasts and birds that Olivia has named are designated as dangerous beast species. Class II among them. All those things that threaten people's lives. Normal people have no doubt about escaping the moment they meet.

Ashton dared to flush it out, as it would be troublesome to penetrate either way.

"Olivia really doesn't bluff."

"Ehehe. Because that's my good part!

Olivia started singing her nose again, waving the big hand and starting to walk the lead.

About an hour after leaving the Gray Raven Pavilion. As the luxurious mansion sidewalked alongside the slack, the Royal Library was seen across the street. Soon Olivia rushes over to the filling room and shows off the knight's collar badge.

"Hey, can I come in?

"This is Major Olivia. Of course. There can't be a door to close to Major Olivia."

That said, when the civilian gives a vigorous standing salute, he skips the instructions to his men by his side.

"What are you bluffing about? Why don't you show Major Olivia to the entrance?

"Ha!

"I've been here four times already, so you don't need guidance, do you?

To Olivia's words, the man instantly shakes his head to the side.

"It doesn't work that way. Come here, please."

Ashton tilted his neck at the look of the man walking forward with his hips low. Except for the first day, I went through three days, because I had never seen a response like this before. Looking next door, Claudia is shrugging her shoulders and laughing bitterly. Apparently, he knows why.

"What do you mean?

When questioned, Claudia has stared with a strange look.

"Surprisingly, Ashton is dull, too. It means that the major's martial arts on the central front have reached their ears as well."

"Oh, is that what you mean"

Olivia took all the enemy generals and saved the Second Army, which was on the verge of destruction. If that story is telling, the attitude of the civilians is also convincing.

"That's somewhat blatant, but that's more or less what an army is. Especially now in a state of war."

"It's true that Olivia's medal is missing a bit."

I can hear you talking about promotion. Thought Olivia's promotion would be definite.

"I'm saying it as if it were some other HR, but Ashton could be treated as generously as the Major, right?

Claudia says with a serious face.

"Me, sir? No way."

To Ashton, who laughs with his nose, Claudia begins to give a frightened look.

"What are you laughing at swallowing? The upper management appreciates your talent as a military mentor. [M] I know I've said this before, but make sure you recognize your own accomplishments."

"Again. Well. Lieutenant Claudia's joke is bad."

…………

"... is that a joke?

"Ahhh."

Claudia has spoken with words that teach her children, as she is openly sighed and bewildered.

"Look, listen carefully. Since the fall of Fortress Keel, the Royal Army has lost a series of battles. The same was true with a blade stuck to his throat. That's it, okay?

"Yes, sir"

Ashton snorts.

"But things have changed since Major and you showed up. He left the Imperial Army in the south and north and now eliminates enemies of the central front again. Still, the Imperial Army's advantage won't waver, but it's a dramatic change compared to a year ago"

"I know that, but most of that is Olivia's feat"

I do admit that I have achieved quite a bit. That's why I'm not so thick and shameless as to make it a good idea to be spoken in the same line as Olivia.

"It is also your feat. No matter what the others do, it's only if they do their best. But it is also an unshakeable fact that the two forces are at their core. That's why the upper management appreciates your power. It goes without saying to the Major."

Ashton was suddenly feeling Zushiri and his shoulders getting heavy. That is nothing more than because I remember the illusion of being carried on the future of the kingdom. If my parents listen to me now, I'm sure they'll graduate. I was just a student a year and a half ago.

"─ To be honest, you're tough. It's too much for me."

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to put pressure on you. But I'm with you. Even if you're in danger, I have the strength to protect you."

That being said, Claudia gently slapped the sword on her hips to show it. The words were filled with kindness and strength, and I suddenly felt sorry for myself for making a weak noise. There will be anxiety with her over the unrest that may come to an end. Nevertheless, he told me to protect him. You can't stop here as a man.

"... thank you for your continued guidance. And the more you preach, please."

"Huh. That's what I'm talking about."

Claudia gently pokes Ashton's forehead with her finger and she reaches out as she is.

"But, well, it's nice to meet you,"

As we were shaking each other's hard hands for the second time, a bell-like voice rang from the front.

"What are Ashton and Claudia doing? Let's go."

Olivia is smiling and waving when she sees it. Ashton and Claudia looked at each other and laughed at each other without meaning.
