The Branded Female Fencer

War and Peace, Part 243 ~ Sadness ③ ~

"Jake. Did you make me wait?

"Oh, Tinny. It's okay, 'cause I just got here."

Jake served as an escort for Ray fans during the day and then made an archaic appointment with Titania. Ray fans have not watched the Unified Martial Arts Games, in which the knights of their country have not participated, and for that reason Jake has not seen the Titania game either. That is, Jake believed Titania's name to be Tiny, so much so that he blurted out that he couldn't find it in the list of participants.

Titania also did not talk about their own game, so they did not pursue each other deeply. It may also have felt for each other that pursuing Titania in depth would end this relationship there.

These two had somewhere cozy to embrace a relationship as dangerous as walking a cliff in such a cloudy sea. At the same time, were we still feeling each other that this time was coming to an end? Since the first greeting, there have been no words between the two of them.

"... archaeology, okay?"

"Yeah, that's right"

That's how Jake put up his sword silently. That's how Titania stands to match her sword. There was no killing spirit between them, and there was a quiet time flowing. There's no way anyone else can figure out what the two of them were doing. The two had only a sense of sword alignment, and only a sign of each other.

That was similar to what Layer and Ravenstein had done, but there was no killing spirit between the two of them, and Titania had taught sword moves without leaving enough room for Jake. The two of them ended up in minutes of things that would take years to match if they used real flesh.

That's how Jake eventually fell out of fatigue. But Titania also remembered the light dizziness, and stood with her sword as her support.

"... brilliant. I didn't know you'd be able to immerse yourself here in just a few days."

"Ha, ha... but it's the limit. Tinny, that's so awesome."

"Hehe, you were awesome. When has it been so tiring? I don't like the handles, but I'm obsessed with them.

Okay, Shire. Why are you hiding?

In Titania's call, Shire, hidden in the shadows, appeared naughty.

"No, um... I'm a little thrilled with the conversation that's going to be misunderstood?

"" What?

Two people return a similar reaction to Shire's words. Oh, I was more embarrassed and sighed when Shire said that these two were alike. And get back on your mind and introduce yourself to Jake.

Jake was surprised that a girl who was no different from herself and her old age was fighting this far, but at the same time praised her honestly. It also seems that both Shire and Jake liked Jake's honesty.

Titania was smiling at the encounter of the next generation of warriors in charge. That's how I was already going to leave the scene, but watching something a little bit like a conversation between the two of them and a little twist.

At that time Titania's mood was more serene than ever. If I had fulfilled my role as a clan to which the sword was given as usual - so much so that I would have been delusional about mentoring my successors in this way.

That's why Titania didn't notice the changes around her. Titania was unaware that even though the villas of the somewhat less popular aristocrats in Arnelia made the meeting point, they rarely passed by anyone.

And the match between Shire and Jake came to a paragraph, and Shire rushed over to Titania. Jake was still waving his sword about something.

"How about that, Shire? You and your generation of swordsmen."

"Mm-hmm. Normal, right?"

Shire's words are badly toothed. Hi. Something caught my eye.

"Yes, it's normal. It was with the intermediate knights of the Temple Knights, but it's too normal. Maybe he's tired, maybe he's a little bit of a reliever. I know you work out well, and you're quick to learn if his personality is honest, but here's the thing, you don't say you feel talented."

"Yes, I agree"

Shire was surprised the other way, as Titania affirmed lightly.

"Jake has an extraordinary concentration. But it's never genius skin. You never know ten after hearing one, it would be three at best. We can't handle first-sight attacks, we can't develop new technologies, we can't have special physical abilities."

"So why are you giving such young people such instruction?

"We are single-handedly destroying the evil spirit of fifth place. Plus the destruction of demon kings like the Temple Knights of Arnelia struggle with, most recently the bandit Banderas crusade. Bandras' grade as a mercenary is A +. Obviously excessive performance for just an honest boy to achieve. I'm involved because I want to figure out who that is..."

Titania's expression wobbled intricately. Shame, then somewhere seems happy. Shire couldn't grasp the meaning of that expression, so he just had to watch Jake wave his sword on the spot without being able to say anything.
