Magic City Anisphere. Time has flown since the name of this new city was so designated.

My office moved the place from Count Cyan's residence to the new city office. From the window of the office on the upper floor of the city hall, you can see the Knights working in training.

Much remains untouched, although it is a city government built and completed as a matter of priority. The place in the square was brought for their training.

"You're all tense."

With the completion of the metropolitan government, in the future the quarters reserved for those working as VIP escorts were liberated by the Knights. They had also exposed their joy by finally being able to breathe in what had been their temporary residence. I'm also glad to see them like that.

"Speaking of which... you're too busy here to train properly."

At the very least, though I try not to blunt my body. I can't say that there is no danger between the King's capital, Sara Lateria, and the magic city. I just didn't have time to move my stuff over here after the city office was done or take it slow because of the work I had to do.

The business was just a little bit off now. I turn my gaze to Priscilla, who is in charge beside me today.

"Priscilla, is it okay if I come mixed up with the Knights' training?

"Are you training for the Knights?

Priscilla blinks her eyes only slightly before closing them to silence. He shook my head vertically after putting it down for a little while.

"We're also doing a paragraph of work, and if it's time now, it should come with Master Navre and Gark, and then Charne. It won't be a problem."

"I know Navre and Gakkun, but Shalne too?

"She's a samurai, but she also has an escort job. He wanted it strongly."

"Oh well, my shoulders get stiff when all I do is work to my desk, too. What about Priscilla?

"I have things to sort out and look into."

"Really?"

You're still passionate about business, Priscilla. Though I still don't know what you're thinking. I don't have a lot of private conversations.

I just wonder if that's the distance Priscilla wants. I don't want to be forced to narrow the distance. I waved gently at Priscilla before leaving the office behind.

If we go outside, the voices emitted in the training of the knights sound good. A short distance from the training landscape we found Gakkun, Navr and Charne. Gakun and Navre were just doing an audition together.

"Good day, Charne"

"That, Your Royal Highness? What's the matter, sir?

"Because if I don't move my body, too, I'll be dull. I'm here to mix things up."

"I'm here to mix things up... it's true that Her Royal Highness Sister Wang has changed."

Charne has said that with a bitter smile. I want you to take it because you already think of me there.

Gakun and Navre used Mana Blade on each other. Now popularized by many, Mana Blade made several improvements, adding non-killing features.

You don't have to worry about injuring yourself with Mana Blade even if you train as hard as you can by using the features added to Mana Blade. There was also a voice of anxiety that there was just no pain at all, so when I hit it, a little shock started to run.

I think I can replace the stun gun if I use the output, so I'm wondering if there's any new way to make use of it. However, suggesting a new use from me would increase the work of the Ministry of Magic, so it's still stopped with the idea in my head.

"... nevertheless"

Gakun and Navre's combined auditions are promising. Navre is also good at it. It's just a boulder, the son of a knight captain, and he's making a really strong move.

But overwhelming Navre like that is a gut. To put it this way, it was like a wall of rocks. Wherever you type in, you don't react and freak out. There are no gaps, and I get tired of attacking from where.

In doing so, he put a quick blow on his shoulder so that he wouldn't miss Navre, who showed the gap, and raised his hands to say that Navre had arrived. Where they exhale, I walk over to them.

"Good day, both of you. You're going to be fine."

"That, Dear Anisphere"

"Sister Wang, why are you here?

"Thought I'd move my body a little. I thought I'd mix it up with the training of the knights..."

"... stop him because he makes you care"

"Uh."

Navre blamed me for sighing. It's not that I don't like the type of archery I do alone, but I also don't like to surprise the opportunities I can have with other people around the corner.

"Then you can hang out with me."

"Us?

"... we were escorts for once."

"I don't care about the details! That's why you have to deal with me!

"Me?

Gakun tilts his neck by pointing at himself. Besides, I nod and show.

"It's gonna be a rematch, isn't it? I was just wondering how strong you've gotten since then."

"... Wow, I'm so nervous!

"Haha, shall we start with a matching archery? Navre, can I borrow Mana Blade? Charne, keep the celestial."

"Yes! Sister Wang!

"... you have no choice"

I take off every belt and leave the celestial with Charne. Navre lent me Mana Blade as she sighed.

It's not like you can't have a non-kill setting with a celestial, but it's got a blade on it, just in case. Make sure Mana Blade feels borrowed before facing Gakkun.

"You never had a chance to see Gakun's strength."

"... right"

"I miss you." Can you stop me from sticking my neck in the game? "

"You can forget about those details..."

"I'll never forget, the rookie who was able to fight decently in that sudden demonic encounter was about as gagged. Impressive."

"... that way"

Ha, and sigh, and then Gakun rearranges Mana Blade. I'm usually a grumpy gut, but when I start to concentrate, that thread opens slightly and looks at me.

I also think any more words are impeccable and match Gakun with Mana Blade's blade. Then slowly, wave the sword to check each other's movements. It's like mirroring, slowly.

"What's the lead on the pace?

"Go ahead. I'm better at taking it."

"Yes. Then... - I'm coming."

One swing, another swing and the pace of the sword trident. Mana Blade is not suitable for impending swords with which there is an entity, but on the contrary, Mana Blade communicates a sense of impending imminence well with each other.

Shake, play. Shake, play. Shake, play. Every time I get bounced, I accelerate my movements. Gakun returns the sword trident without shaking. Eventually, that speed - to a speed no different from that in action.

"-Sh!"

A flash that exhaled briefly and aimed at my shoulder. However, the impact is transmitted to the hand by a blow returned with the wrist snap at its advantage.

Fast, heavy, sharp. It's a terribly useless operation. Being good at taking it is not an exaggeration or anything.

"Ha-ha-ha."

I couldn't help but laugh. Gakun, you haven't even moved a step. It's all handled with a terribly fast moulded structure.

You can't slash your shoulder from the top or aim for your flank with a blade to return. If you want to take a step back and aim for a poke, they're going to give you back the poke. My breath rises for a moment on the repetition of the smallest and most effective sword trident, scraped off waste.

Step back to get the distance. And then he goes to Gakun with a low posture and a crawling attitude. A blow like an attempt to crush comes from the brain.

I change my posture to deflect an imminent blow and step aside. Put one hand on the ground so you can twist and side roll on the spot, and jump.

Gakun takes it with one hand up in the motion of weaving a kick, not a sword. I can make a difference here between my physique and Gakun stepping on my feet with me in the air.

"- Ha!!"

Gakkun rolled out a flash depicting a large orbit to close up. I just think he was reading my landing time, too, pretending to look like a big one. I take it at Mana Blade, while on the contrary I use the shock to flip and land in the air like a cat.

The exhaled exhalation is strangely hot and painful. I remember this feeling terribly. The feeling of chills rushing through your spine and freaking out. The pressure of waving a sword at an opponent who can't even try to collapse.

(... you're lying, Gah)

Few people have felt this pressure. First one is Uffi, but Uffi had magic. The fear was that he didn't know what he was going to do. that, if I compete with the sword, I am unbeatable confident.

And the other one's your mother. It's my mother who reminds me that I'm dealing with Gakun. Wasteless motion rolled out of that little body and a comma-like motion that keeps going around utilizing the centrifugal force of the spear.

Gakun certainly doesn't behave as well as his mother. It's not even noticeable. Compared to my mother, I haven't felt the pressure yet. However, we are definitely stepping into the edge of that "realm".

(If your mother is "moving", Gakun is "quiet"... what makes it possible is the sense that she has and her physical abilities...)

It was getting so strong. The first time I see him, when he's stuck around, the person he stretched out with a single blow is growing so big.

"Gakun."

"... somehow"

Words are short. Gakun, who is concentrating, is holding his consciousness to one of my actions with his thin open eyes.

"I'm surprised, a little stuttered.... hey, can I get some more" up "?

"... go ahead"

In Gakun's reply I hoisted the edge of my lips. - And it's the magic of the dragon that goes around.

It's been a really long time since I've had an engraving mark, and it seemed to roar and roar as if I'd waited a long time. Maybe I'm being guessed, too, I can't believe you think I enjoy striking swords so much.

"Absolutely - I'll move you!

He kicks the ground and is slashed by guts at an accelerated rate with physical strengthening. So for the first time, Gakun's expression shook with slight surprise. And Gakun retreated one step before taking my sword.

Mana Blade's blade and blade collide, and the shock bounces back. They bounce each other like their magic scatters purple electricity, scattering like sparks.

"Gu, uh-huh!

Gakun distorted his face in agony to say this was unbearable and bounced back to push the sword back. I swing through the bounced sword to push it back forcefully.

One, two, three, shake or shake is prevented. But it does push Gakun back!

"Ahhhhh!!"

"Ugh!?"

Fourth shot, Gakun's blade of Mana Blade blew. I need to miss that gap. I grip Mana Blade with both hands and take a blow out of my head.

- The blow is held in by Gakun's hand, who let go of Mana Blade, grabbing her wrist. Gakun's hand grabbed my neck when he put his shoulder against the blade to push Gakun's hand back even further.

"... ah!? sorry!? Dear Anisphere!!"

……

Pa, I let go of the hand that was grabbing my neck and bowed my head in momentum that Gakun was going to be grounded on the spot. I couldn't breathe.

Before my blade hit my shoulder, I had already been grabbed by Gakun by my neck. I mean, if Gakun wanted to do it like that, he could have broken his neck.

"... lost?

I did? I thought you were confident. You even used the magic of a dragon?

I did push it overwhelmingly with force. I should have pushed it, but they were poking me through this instant gap and grabbing me for the weakness of my neck. What do you call this without saying defeat?

"... Wow! Ku... Ya... No, no, no, no, no!

"Hih!?"

I lost my still "sweet" part and Gakun's "skill". Normally my mother mows me and I regret it more than I lose!

Sure, lately, it was just deskwork! Exercise wasn't the main thing though! It's not like I like to fight! I can't believe I lost with what I've been good at, losing...

"Ku, ku, gi......! Gahhhh......!

"Hih, hih..."

"My... I'm losing... but I'll never lose next time..."

"Is there another one?!?"

"It's decided!? You're going to win and run!?"

"No, it's not like I won now..."

"You win! Proud of you! That's awesome, Gah!

Unexpectedly take both hands of the humble Gakun and shake him up and down.

I do regret losing so much. But more than that, "I don't know!"

"He said he didn't like magic, but that's enough gag!

"What..."

"Because even I had confidence in the sword, and pride as an adventurer! Hey! Aren't you going to be a disciple to your mother now? Gakun would have succeeded your mother!

"Huh!? Hey, Dear Anisphere!?"

It's Mana Blade. What if there was a demon sword like my Celestial or Yufi's Arcane Shell to match Gakun's aptitude?

If you don't like magic, what about the Devil's Sword, which focuses on protection, and magic props? I can't stop overflowing my imagination at once.

"... Her Royal Highness Sister Wang, Gark is in trouble."

"... oops! Oh, I'm sorry. I got a little excited."

"Yes, no..."

Honey, I coughed up and Navre broke in for me. Charne, next to Navre, has opened his eyes round and his mouth pompous.

"It was a brilliant match.... but Her Royal Highness Sister Wang"

"Huh? What?

"It's too shabby"

Ahead, Navre pointed to the knights staring at us with the eyes of saying something.

"There's no way we're going to get that kind of magic out of nowhere, is there?

"... hey, well, hahaha..."

I accidentally shrunk my shoulders to the navre I see with my jito eyes. So, because Gakun is stronger than I thought, and I mean it...

Ha, and. It sounded so good that I didn't like Navre's sigh, which was thrown up deeply.
