Why I thought they looked alike.

Do you think it's the same armor that's been used to corrupt her memory?

I don't know why, but I keep seeing the dry appearance of the woman.

I wanted to check more about my feelings.

Finding the location of the guard training was simple, and I went straight to him.

Their ability to compete freely was not bad.

I was taking the wizard and training him for a magical attack.

Leandro continues to hide his movements and looks at them.

As we watched the alternate exercises, we quickly learned the skills of each of the guards.

The gatekeeper Isabelle, who stopped him, was indeed excellent.

There was an overwhelming sense of stability compared to other articles.

I felt like I wasn't improving compared to my talents.

If I seem to be running solo in a duel with my comrades, I kill my skill.

Something seemed to be holding her back. It was not dry, but it was never exhausting.

The atmosphere was completely different from that of my mother, who fought like she was laughing and playing with her colleagues.

As he watches her train, he becomes more and more concerned about her.

The next day, the next day, I watched the gatekeeper practice in silence.

On the fourth day, Leandro spoke to the woman who was left alone.

Is there a purpose to this? ”

Of course, I don't feel that way.

It wasn't a word I had in mind.

I was embarrassed that I was watching quietly, so I almost spit out anything.

“Oh, no. That's the whole point.

“This is nothing like the old guard. I didn't have any articles to hide from my colleagues. What the hell do you think your fellow guards are doing? ”

This is a bad idea.

My mother's colleague, the Imperial Guard, used to come to Leandro's house often.

His memory was 16 years ago.

Moreover, he was not even ten years old at that time.

“That. If I show my skills, my colleagues might get hurt. ”

With Leandro's sharp pressure to hide his embarrassment, Isabelle panicked and said, "I can't hide my mind."

That's an honest answer I heard in a panic. Leandro bursts out laughing from the depths of his heart.

I tried to endure it, but I couldn't help but smile between my lips.

“Ah…

She gives you a disgraceful look, spitting out a disdainful comment about her colleagues.

“Then I'll deal with it. ”

“Yes?”

Isabelle opens her eyes wide.

“Reveal your true skill. Prove you're strong enough to ignore your fellow guards. ”

“Are you going to teach me? ”

“Yes."

“Thank you. ”

Isabelle lowers her head.

Then he bit his lip slightly and swung his knife.

It was a sharp blade, and it swung moderately sharply, but Leandro dodged it a few times and snapped at the wrist with the knife.

Isabelle, lying on the floor, wipes her forehead slightly.

“As I heard. We can't attack somehow. ”

Leandro frowns.

“What are you doing? ”

“Yes..? ”

“You were able to strike twice as fast, weren't you? I told you I'd teach you. I never said I'd play a prank. ”

“But...

“What is it?”

“Then I'll try this again. ”

Isabelle holds a wooden sword on one side of the training ground.

Leandro looks absurd.

“Were you worried I might get hurt? ”

“Do it again. ”

It took Isabelle almost half a day to become serious.

He accidentally killed one of his fellow guards during a duel.

He was an endless crowd.

Despite his good background, he was almost threatened by life, but ignored his offer to come to the lodge, his pride broke and he learned that the person who forced him to fight the sword was protecting Isabelle.

But if we add any more mistakes here, we're done.

She wanted to stick to the guards for a long time.

The treatment of my mother who was suffering from incurable illness was endless.

You can never lose your job.

‘Never.

However, the emotion spread out gradually, striking the man in front of him with the sword.

Ka 'ang!

The last piece of moonlight shatters on the blade and becomes dark everywhere.

Leandro draws his sword.

The man who was twenty years old and fought the First International Sword.

Master of the Blue Lion Knights.

I thought my reputation was exaggerated. However, it seemed to me that I was underrated.

“Let me ask you a question. ”

“Do it.”

“Your mother. How good was she compared to me? ”

Leandro smiles and answers the questions he asked in the darkness without a single spot of light.

“You couldn't reach it with all your might. Don't you dare put it in your mouth if you're going to attack like this. ”

“So you're...

Leandro opens his mouth, hesitating a moment.

“She had already had her visions when she was twelve. ”

“Then I'm relieved. ”

As soon as she said that, Isabelle said,

I fixed the knife.

I stopped breathing.

As Leandro looks at the woman walking at a pace close to the scarecrow, he feels as though the other person has become a completely different person.

The blade was swinged with the most difficult square. The distance of 10 meters is almost narrowed in two steps.

The opposing Pokémon counteracts the attack without even a sound, but the opposing Pokémon is already targeting another blind spot.

One angle on the sole of the foot, and one position with the sword hanging down in the hand, were intended to accelerate quickly.

A crooked, flying arrow rages from all sides.

Kaga Gaga River!

There was no end to stopping and stopping.

It's not just speed.

This attack is sharp and clean enough to instantly split the bone and flesh once it is spiky.

Even without the moonlight, the flames that make iron and iron collide danced.

A red flame splattering into the fire, a blue flame standing at the tip of a blade...

The cracks and crevices of the attack hold a clear sword.

Ka-chow! Ka-chow! Ka River!

If this attack is blocked, the next attack will penetrate. Even though each of them is an attack worth breaking bones, the flowing natural performances continue without interruption.

Parker!

But...

Leandro laughs and deals with all the attacks that seem inevitable and defensible.

Like when I was seven...

The man who remembered his lost childhood was forced to laugh at that time.

By the time Leandro realized my expression, Isabelle was slowing down with all her strength.

The last attack that she made by forcefully gripping her wrist bounces off, and she settles down without continuing with the attack.

The target hits everything with ease, even though it can't be counted from a distance.

I didn't even have the strength to say I lost.

One thing became clear.

To the person in front of you, you can hit them with all your body and mind.

Leandro taught Isabelle a sword for a year.

Few articles were talented.

I often feel uneasy when I think of my mother from her, and the meeting was all a secret meeting.

Isabelle's swordsmanship has improved differently each day, meeting someone she can use with ease.

“Very good. ”

Isabelle smiles brightly in front of him, unable to express her emotions, perhaps because of tension.

Leandro suddenly felt a sore chest when he saw the dried smile.

I felt like I ate something wrong. I knocked a few times on the way back, but it didn't work.

I keep remembering that smile.

I pressed the temples with my thumb, but it didn't erase my appearance.

Sweet.

I kept getting thirsty with a cup of water.

“What's on your mind? ”

The X.O. Wanted to see me.

I asked. Leandro stares blankly at the X.O.

Then he pointed to the left chest.

“You're hurting.”

“Wooxin." ”

“I feel a little feverish. Suddenly, I feel weak. I can't concentrate. ”

The deputy chief, who is the disciple of the newly adopted family, looked worried.

“Since when?”

It wouldn't do any good to talk to this guy.

“Ever since I saw someone smile...

“Huh? Who is it? ”

The deputy director's eyes flashed, touching his brown hair on multiple strands.

“Just, there is such a thing. ”

“Wow. I wonder who's shaking your mind that much? ”

“Bullshit. Why are you here? ”

“Haha…

The deputy commander smiled nonchalantly and told me about the operation of the knights.

I was anxious about the look in his eyes, but I didn't tell him his name, and I didn't know what to do.

That was a mistake.

A week later.

Knock, knock.

Isabelle came to the Oval Office. She looks like she's never seen it before.

He seemed angry, distressed, or someplace nervous.

However, it was clear that his eyes were shaking.

It was more painful and painful than when I saw him smile before.

Leandro asked because he was more nervous than ever.

“Did something happen? ”

“Pretend not to know. Are you doing this?”

“Pretend you don't know? ”

She placed a bundle of flowers in the back on the desk of the office.

“You sent this to me. Me. Me. Did you see her as a woman, not a knight? ”

I looked at the flowers on my desk.

It had a legitimate name written on it.

I had nothing to say.

I guessed who did it, but when I was asked that question, I couldn't shake my head.

Why focus more on her time than anyone else?

Overwhelming talent?

That's not the only explanation. Leandro could not deceive himself and deny the question.

“Why. Why don't you stay put? ”

Gurgle!

The deputy director said in a puzzled manner that he had heard the news.

“I'm sorry, I misunderstood. I thought you two liked each other! Rumor has it that the guards are investigating everything...

The deputy commander said, looking at the face of my commander and the face of the suspended guard.

“I just wanted to connect you. But it's not. Then it's my fault! ”

“I'll schedule the deputy commander's fitness training for the next year. ”

“Well, it's strong.

“Or you can stick with me in a 1: 1 battle for a year. ”

“The one in front...

“There's been a trend. I'm sorry."

Isabelle bows once and leaves the office with a red face.

Leandro wanted to grab the deputy commander's collar, but he was just dazed because he saw the door where Isabelle left off.

There was.

“Master, I don't think that's him. It doesn't even bounce. ”

“X.O.”

“Yes?”

“Does it bother you to live like that? ”

It's been three years.

The deputy commander's fitness training schedule has been in place for three years.

There was.

The same is true of the opposition.

The Practice Wooden Sword slapped the deputy commander on the shoulder.

“Ugh...! ”

The shimmering baldness next to the shoulder reflects the sunlight.

“Again.”

Despite losing the duel that gave Leandro a lot of penalties, the deputy commander who shaved off all his precious head pushed him back into a desperate battle.

But soon, I was beaten by my shin, and I stumbled for a long time in a crooked posture.

One side is a blade. One side is comfortable with a wooden sword, blindfolded, and clothed to the ear.

“Every day. My senses are sharpening differently every day. ”

“From tomorrow, recall all the top 14 articles. ”

“All of them. You mean? You've already won them all. ”

“Let's try again in this state.” Leandro points his finger at the blinded eye.

“Phew.”

The deputy director sighed and shook his head, saying he was really bored.

“Oh, by the way, the token of my old authority. Your secret token. ”

“I just had another month. ”

The X.O. turns his shiny head back.

“Hahaha. Is it nine years and three months now? I gave up, too.”

“Looks like you did well, anyway. Things have been a little weird lately. ”

“I see.”

“Yes, as you know, the anti-war group died without a rat or a bird.

“We are the swords of the empire. Don't think about politics. ”

“Oh, yeah, but...

That's for Duke Laurence to take care of.

Assassination of the anti-war faction.

It is clear that there is a duke at the heart of it.

I didn't stop him at all.

I didn't say a word.

Not long ago, the power of Duke Laurence was so great that even Isabelle, who was less than herself, became the new head of the imperial guard.

‘Actually, I made it up. ’

Duke Laurence Tartier.

She knew all the matters beforehand and took care of the convenience without asking for anything.

Perhaps he even carelessly took care of the duc's convenience.

The Duke of Lorenz gave it to me.

It was a blade, so I didn't lay a finger on him.

There's always a lot of bad guys and a lot of punishments.

But was he any different from the ‘wicked’?

The duc of the girl and her horde.

I can't believe the sin that I was blindfolded for comfort was so terrible because it helped me.

‘The honorary Duke of Vibrio, of the Demon King. Representative? "

Cheapskate.

The emperor inspected the Sewers by himself, robbing the blade of purple liquid.

Magical objects that are not of this world. There was enough evidence.

As a target, it's too crowded to start investigating.

A suspicious old man confronting the Duke of Girls.

Immediately after the investigation started, there was an unprecedented pressure spilled from everywhere.

The Imperial Court, the Tower of Azura, even the Temple... at the heart of noble society.

The Duke did not stop him himself, but he did not stop him as before. ’It is clear.

Leandro realized how comfortable he had been in pursuit of ‘justice.'

What he had accomplished was only the justice that was instigated by those with real power in the darkness.

Definitions that are consistent with their interests. The definition of what they never ‘uncomfortable’.

The Empire's target group pushed the investigation as it did.

Since he got his job, it may be the first and last proper investigation.

The blade of the Empire slowly began to aim at my heart.
