The Branded Female Fencer

"... okay, I hope you never get me wrong, and I don't want you to regret it... because I saw you guys."

"Us?

Rafferty looks surprised.

"Yes, you and Alberto chose the sword. It's probably natural for us, and neither Miriazal nor Arnelia can admit that the Lazars will take the sword, but it's against Miriazal's sincerity. The sharp wife noticed the fact. That's why Rianno made one decision. I wanted to prove that my offspring, who had nothing to do with the battle, could live their lives properly."

"For that, did you make the decision to produce Crudas? Because we took the sword."

"That's right. But all the facts didn't go as far as we thought. The newborn Crudas already showed good compatibility with the blood the more semi-veterinary it became, and it was expected that it might become a delicacy beyond Alberto if it grew as well as it did. I was stuck with the facts, and neither Lianna nor I could say anything. If Crudus would at least have chosen his own path of battle, he would have been convinced, but Crudus' birth put a strain on Lianna above all else. Lianna caught her breath shortly after Crudas was attentive.

Seeing that fact, I should have known better what emotions Crudas had. I was immature as a human being and as a father. This end is not what everyone wanted, neither Lianna nor Master Miriazar. Forgive me. "

"Forgive me, nothing."

Rafferty shuts her mouth, about to ask who she said it to. It would have driven Crudas, even though everyone didn't want it and he didn't even know it. And I regretted why I didn't care more about Crudas. The last time I was with you on that octave forest battlefield, it was supposed to be me.

Sure, the Yae Forest was a fierce battle, but Rafferty couldn't help but want to punch his head against the wall wondering if he really could afford to hang on to one of his younger brothers.

But one thought came to mind. It was about Alberto.

"Dad, does Alberto know about that?

"No, I don't know. Alberto is silent in a circle to me, but never dull. I guess Rianna gave it up around there. But I don't think I know that much."

"Even so, wouldn't Alberto be too cold? Crudas died, but he didn't even come to the funeral. He said he was in training with Miriazal, but even if Miriazal recommended it, he didn't come here. What the hell is he doing?

"It would be beastification training"

Moldard replied lightly. I have an imagination. The Lazar family must know, as a last resort in battle, the beastification. If you encounter an enemy that cannot be repelled as a knight, activate its power even if it violates the ban, but must be punished.

Even if not, there are those who automatically begin to beast what draws Lazar's blood when life is in danger. Thinking about it in case it did, it was their imperative that the power of beastification should be equipped with ways to control it.

But Alberto had never succeeded in beastification before. It was unusual not to know how to control it before adulthood.

"Still, looking back in history, it wasn't that much of a problem because Alberto boasts the strength of a permanent separation, but from now on it will be. Miriazal is also concerned. Come."

"But still..."

"The beastification that activates it for the first time since it's getting older is burdensome. However, if activated, it will be the strength of the difference in digits. Once an ancestor named Richard succeeded in activating at the longest age of 21, but he said it became a beastification many times stronger than normal. If Alberto succeeds - I can't imagine how strong it would be. Naturally, recoil may not be the same. Richard is now prematurely dead due to repeated veterinary recoil."

"... Brother Alberto, I wonder what you're doing"

While leading Alberto, Rafferty wanted to at least mourn the death of Crudus ourselves. Now he is sleeping beside his mother, Rianna, in peace. I don't know if that's happiness for him, but at least we wanted to wish him and his mother the best of luck even if we were left alone.

"Jake"

"Jake!

In Gloria's hallway, Nellie called Jake out loud, not even in the morning. Several students look back at the sword screen, but Jake tried to leave the scene without a glance. Nellie follows Jake, but Jake was speeding up his legs to keep Nellie from catching up.

Nellie, who boiled her business down to the way it was, went around in front of Jake with all her strength and blocked the path.

"I told you to wait!?

"I hear you, but I'm not going to wait. I know what to do."

"Then why won't you answer me! Dora, about you!

Jake took his gaze off Nellie's sword screen. It's not a nuisance, I checked the surroundings. There aren't many students in Gloria who don't know about Dora. However, Dora, who had demonstrated her innate free temperament, was less visible in class and elsewhere, in contrast to her existential appearance. It is conceivable that he was not only thorough bystanders, but was not very active in the class itself.

That would be so. For Dortmund, who lived eternally, there was now no such thing as schooling. Was the art class interesting or pretty much attended, but he wasn't interested, except that he could touch his skin and know.

When Jake checked the surroundings, the students somehow perceived the situation and left the scene. Of course, there were some students who didn't want to get caught up in Jake and Nellie's arguments, but many students have guessed. Dora said for some reason that it was not good for Arnelia. Of course there were students who asked about Dora and asked questions to the instructor. But they realized that no one should get a clear answer more than they did.

But Nellie wasn't convinced. For many students Dora was an object of admiration and may have been an object of jealousy again, but Nellie seriously liked Dora. And he was also a trusted companion on the battlefield together. And besides Lisa and Jake, he was also a respectable subject for the first time. Nellie is never a nostalgic character, but she also never betrays the person she trusted once for that matter. Nellie could never back down except to find out the truth about Dora.
