The Branded Female Fencer

"You don't have to scream so much to hear it, whirl"

"It's the same voice as always! Besides, isn't it Mr. Jake that's up there?

"Well, I won't deny it"

Jake admitted it so well that Dute Hilde was letting his mouth pound like it was slightly empty. Lotte asks nasty.

"Jake, have you changed the vibe a bit?

"I've got men. It was easy to wield my sword by myself, but my men, and I feel a lot harder when I can have older men. I think I just figured out why Alberto is faceless. No wonder Rafferty looks relaxed."

"But if you think about it too much, you get wrinkles between your eyebrows?

"I know, but that's not all. I've been thinking too much about preparing for the Continental Peace Conference, about competing in the Unified Arts Games, about what Gloria's classes will do in the meantime."

"Jake looks like an adult... more than that, you're going to the Unified Martial Arts Games?

The Bruns asked back as surprised. Jake turns slightly upside down on the sword screen.

"Ooh. It is recommended that we leave at once. Well, not just me, but a good number of them."

"... awesome. You know how honorable it is for a knight to be out there?

"No?"

"One person is usually selected in one country per sector. Dispatches are mostly no more than 10, so every department comes out with the best knights in the country. We were all more than captains in the Olmekis kingdom before. By the way, my father seems to have been out when he was younger, but even when he said he was the best in Olmekis, he said the qualifying breakthrough was the limit and he couldn't win a single battle in the main battle. Are you okay with being in a tournament like that?

"Well, I can't say anything without trying. I'll do everything I can to get out."

Jake replied unenthusiastically, but there was a color of respect in Bruns' gaze. He is a family member of knights from generation to generation in the first place, and his participation in the Unified Martial Arts Games seems to be a fairly important event. Since Jake's birth in the Temple Knights, there has been a change in Bruns' attitude towards Jake, but apparently a respect for Jake has also been created in this case. At this rate, Jake didn't dare tell me that it seemed better to keep quiet that it was an appearance from the main game.

Don't go crazy, Jake and Rascal were gazing at each other.

"Didn't you have something better to do than that?

"Oh, yeah. Mr. Miltre or Mr. Marion are graduating, aren't they? I'm naturally invited to a graduation party and then to a separate farewell party. The two Knights of the Temple are on the inside, so I'll stay in Arnelia. You in on this, too?

"Hmm, because we'll meet face to face at the Temple Knights anyway. Besides, if I stay like this, I'll be in a better position, and I'm gonna stop feeling kind of weird. And I don't really know what to look like."

"What face, you..."

That's what I was about to say. Rascal climbed the belly of Bruns. They also know that Jake was involved in Crudus' death. On the matter, Miltre blamed Jake but had a history of being embarrassed by Marion and finally fitting in. Since then, I've been busy on assignments, and Jake hasn't been face-to-face with them much.

It is true that the awkwardness remains, but that could have been an inexorable thing. Dute Hilde has come up with the following topic: To change the air or can't read the air.

"Then you will be absent. Come when you feel like it and time. And Linda sent me a letter. Apparently, she's doing fine. Mayer's lecture is so advanced that he's finally following it, but he said it's very interesting that people with high abilities are recruited regardless of nobility or civilians.

If she wants to do it, she's quite free to do research and do assignments, and Linda seems to have been given a place to do research that she's free to do. "

"I know. Ruth wrote the same thing."

In Ruth's letter, Jake knows that bad bugs close to Linda have been eliminated from one end and that Ruth has already secured his own office by working evil wisdom. Linda's research site is also Ruth's tease. It didn't even say how he was doing that, but I could see Ruth's spiciness was more than I imagined, and Jake was relieved that he was really glad he wasn't the enemy.

Plus, Mirche and Thomas seem to be doing well. Milche's artistic talent was already being recognized and, depending on his discussions with patrons, he was also told that he might study further in another city, not Mayer. Jake was worried about him quite a bit, but he was relieved that it was apparently an extra worry.

"If you don't have anything else to do, we're already going? I'll be working at the Deep Green Palace in the afternoon."

"You're going to be in class when the day breaks, right?

"In the meantime, you've been given a passing grade for your current course. You'll just have to choose the lowest course to graduate, but I'm coming to school. But maybe I'll graduate sooner than you."

"Heh, heh. Really? By the way, I'm going to stay in Arnelia when I graduate. There's a chance you'll be working at the Deep Green Palace, so thank you very much then."

Jake was puzzled by the unexpected offer.

"Kuruku but Deep Green Palace? I think we should stop..."

"Why is that!?

"You, you're a gutter. Hiring women in the Deep Green Palace is questionable, isn't it?

Dute Hilde got angry at Jake for pointing it out and turned his face bright red.

"I told you ~! In a few years, you'll see! Let me show you my first lady!

"Instead, I'd like you to ask our Knights of the Temple to join us."

Rascal showed it with one eye closed to the depth of meaning. Jake worried, but Rascal answered honestly because he thinks he's a friend.

"That's possible, but it's pretty intense, isn't it? It's not as elegant a job as you can see."

"When you join the Knights of the Temple from the civilian population, even if you retire halfway, you'll have quite a career. Think tight."

"Are you even thinking about that? I like the way you think."

"I don't suppose the noble Bruns will know. Living alone is a cup of civilians."

Rascal paid off Bruns' hand, which he placed on Rascal's shoulder. Jake sighs.

"Well, if you graduate well, you'll have a frame in two years. But it's already buried this year."

"Has anyone made you an obedient knight?

"Oh, that's him"

There was a man walking in from where Jake turned his face. The slightly taller adult appearance was a face that the Rascals had never even seen.
