The Branded Female Fencer

The next morning.

By the time Alphilis and the others woke up, Louis and the others had already left the inn behind. Alphilis wanted to say hello, but Alphilis recalls seeing him again.

When I then finished a light breakfast and went outside for a departure, there was already an Anneclose unit lined up outside. Dolce is already up, too. Uti's treatment must have worked, but the dragon's vitality is still not concomitant.

"And I wonder what that parasite was?

"Come on - there's a strange creature in the world."

"You're a pot fairy or something."

"Yeah, well, eagles are strange creatures... and no!

Lisa made fun of me and Uty made a scene, but it's the usual thing, so I left it to Lisa. If you make too much noise, it's convenient these days because Irmatal will tease the utility to shut it up. Align the troops and meet the eyes of Anneclose and Alphilis, who somehow skip the instructions.

"Ah, good morning, Anne"

"Morning, Alfie"

The two smiled lightly and looked like best friends they'd been dating for a long time already. Despite the fact that only about half a day has actually passed since we met.

"What will Alfi do after this?

"Yeah, we're already out of town and going straight down the North Street, right?

"Alfi, tell me your path so easily..."

"You should stop that."

Miranda tried to embarrass Alphilis in his reckless behavior, but Anneclose warned him before that.

"From here on out, Vindal's soldiers are putting up an interrogation. There will be an investigation team in this town soon."

"Eh, then what?"

"From here, we go through a hill on the north side, and through the woods, it becomes Romansland territory. Further through the wilderness, to near the Pilebos mountains, you will see the mountain path to Pilebos. Demons leave, and it's hard to say they're never safe, but it's an area unrelated to the alarm. Don't worry about the chaser."

"You want me to trust your words?

Miranda still asks suspiciously, but Alphilis already believed Anneclose's words.

"I believe you, Anne"

"Oh, I swear in the name of the Crown Princess of Romansland"

"Damn, I love you."

Miranda sighed, but that is also the virtue of the alphilis. Miranda had already given up.

"Wouldn't it be possible to cross Pilebos straight into untouched land, would it?

"It won't. If we go down the road, we should start heading east."

"I see, if you go into a conflict zone, somewhat the same everywhere you go"

"Right. You should join the North Street just outside the conflict zone. Let me give you a detailed map."

Anneclose instructs his men to teach the Alphilis and the others what the status quo is on the front. Keep the map straight. The Alphilis and the others got it, and besides, they even gave it to Anneclose for extra food.

"It's all because of you. On the contrary, it's creepy."

"Don't say that. As for me, I owe you my life to save Dolce, and this is more than I can give back. And yesterday, you made me a dragon knight with all kinds of advice about the dragon that Alphilis is finally riding, right? My men are very grateful for that. Think of this as a team's token."

Dragon knights snort at the words of Anneclose. Doche also said, "Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!" I roared to agree. Alphilis thinks it's really good that we didn't really have to compete yesterday with this unit, which is apparently supposed to be a good crowd.

"Thank you, Anne. I want to see you again."

"Oh, me too, Alfie. You sure you want to build a mercenary regiment?

"Yeah, like we talked about in the bathroom yesterday."

"If I needed an Alfie mercenary regiment, could I hire one?

Hearing that word, Alphilis' face shines.

"Sure! You're welcome to ask for a big one."

"Dude, are you gonna squeeze it out of me?

Anneclose shrugged her shoulder and showed it, so Alphilis smiles at the strange look of it. Because I thought Anneclose was a tougher person. Not only have we gotten along, but Alphilis thinks something may have happened yesterday.

As expected, in yesterday's discussion with Louis, one large package was dropped from Anneclose's shoulder. For that matter alone, Anneclose was feeling open.

"Haha. Well, thank you very much."

"Welcome. You should come to me if you get stuck with mercenaries. If it's an officer's mouth, let me introduce you."

"Right. I'd like to be a mercenary if I could, but if anything goes wrong, I'll take care of you."

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"Right there."

After that much conversation, the Alphilis left the scene early enough. When he finishes dropping off his hindsight, Anneclose orders his men.

"Okay! In the course of our visit, we were able to track down suspects following reports from residents, but it turned out to be a mistake. And because my dragon fell ill, I decided it was impossible to trace it any further, and later decided to leave it to Vindal. Any objections?!?

"" "No!

"Grrrrrrrr!"

The Dragon Knights and Dorche respond at the same time. Satisfied with the reply, Anneclose looked up at the sky to thank for a good encounter.

The story changes. This is the Deep Green Palace within the Holy City of Arnelia. Three months have already passed since Jake and the others visited here.

"Why am I in school or... too fast?"

While complaining about bumps, it is Jake who runs to the school in a painting of Arnelia, the Holy City. Why did this happen? That was last night.

Jake, you go to school.

"Ha!?

Suddenly Miriazal called me, and Miriazal told Jake as he cleared the pile of paperwork.

"Why suddenly again?"

"It's not sudden, well, it's earlier than expected. It's not what I was going to do."

Miriazar answers as she rinses the tea brewed by Tsukiko.

"Can you read and write anymore?

"Oh, that's okay"

Jake had mastered reading and writing in a common language in the past three months. You'll be able to read Lisa's letter by yourself even if it comes already.

Now I was in the process of studying the magic language used for sorcery books and such. Others help with workouts and basic knight tasks. More like an apprenticeship of the so-called obedient knight.

"Then go to school and learn a lot. I've been busy lately, too. Like before, Alberto and Rafferty can't just be your opponents."

"Uh-huh, do I have to go?

"Naturally. Doesn't it matter to touch people your age? You care about something?

"No, because I heard there are a lot of these kids who want Arnelia's school. I was wondering if I could do it well. I think I'm gonna hit you."

When he heard the words, Miriazal made up his mind. Miriazal himself had completely forgotten, but the Gloria School, an academic institution attached to the Church of Arnelia, was a place where noble and sometimes royal children came from all over the country to learn.

At this time, Mayer, the academic capital from Kazas, was the best way to study academics. However, the academic capital is fairly biased by the academic institute, and there was also fierce competition between universities for rights and so on. Sometimes it develops into a riot between schools when it's intense. Why such strife occurs, children attending Mayer's Academy are many of the poorer classes of children, a gathering of human beings who stand up by academia and consider themselves born sooner or later. In it, of course, situations arise that kick people down. One thing is that it is the view of the great noblemen that they do not want their children to pass through such a place of contention.

The other is that nobility and royalty should not be the only thing academics can do. Instead, we leave the discipline to our men, and we take precedence over swordsmanship and even courtesy in the social world. It may be a feeling peculiar to the humans of the eastern part of the continent who were able to achieve peace early, such as courtesy in the social world, but it is a matter of high priority, at least in the eastern region. In that regard, the Gloria School was able to respond to the demands of its time, teaching everything from the training of knight swords to etiquette, and it had become a standard practice for nobles in eastern countries to send children through Gloria.

This, of course, was set up by Miriazal when he was young. Keeping it this way allows us to observe the next generation of key figures in each country, and worse still, it is tantamount to taking hostages. Furthermore, they grow in the education they are given here, so even if they don't like it, they will feel certain benevolence for Arnelianism. That would also be a preventive measure to prevent future rebellion against Arnelianism.

Recently, he had only received regular reports because he had allowed silent members to dive in as teachers and sometimes students, but many nobles, sometimes even prime ministers and kings, had graduated from this Gloria. At the price of this, it is undeniable that civilians have had difficulty going through this Gloria. Of course, there are orphans and other orphans kept by the Arnelian Church, so there is always more than a certain proportion of the common people. I didn't expect Jake to get carried away by them, Miriazal, but it would be a hassle if he got tangled up with the common people and got into fights.

Whatever it is, Jake, if you quarrel with people of your generation, you could kill them half. If you quarreled with your classmates with the feeling of always going on Alberto or Rafferty, there was a great chance that would happen. Jake, who was already a common knight and was quite capable of doing so if he was limited to wooden swords, somehow knew what he was capable of, so he himself suggested the possibility.
