It's a frightening sound.

One of the barbarians rudely turned upside down the dishes on the table.

"What the hell, kid?"

A man with a beard shouted.

"Say it again."

A blood vessel floated in the temple of a furious man.

Guests are moving away to avoid being involved.

"That's why."

It was a boy who was not yet old enough to answer that question.I wonder if I'll be 10 years old by the time I'm old.

However, it seemed a bit strange that he carried a long sword like an adult that didn't fit his body.

I said, "If you want to do it, let's do it."

Even though he was surrounded by three grown-ups, the boy's tone was extremely sober.

"It's a waste of time."

"This kid."

One of the men put his hand on the sword on his waist.

"You're getting killed."

At that moment, the boy's eyes emitted a sharp chill.

Wait!

It was the haunted young man who jumped in screaming.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait

"What the hell, you bastard?"

A man with a beard peeled off his eyes.

It was in a poor tavern in the north.

The boy who entered the store in search of food and warmth was often teased by the drunkards when he entered such a shop, but he didn't care.

The three men beside the table where the boy dined were also mocking the boy with vulgar jokes at first, but gradually the boy began to be murderous as if he were not his opponent.

It was a bad drink.

The men's grunts gradually became so frowning that even the people in the north could frown, but the boy's expression did not change.

It was as if the thick ice of winter in the north were covering the boy's heart.

Eventually, one of the men caught sight of the boy's long sword.

That sword is surprisingly priceless, isn't it?

"Ohh!"

A fellow man makes his drunken, cloudy eyes shine.

It's a shame to let a kid hold it.

Would you like it?

After such a disturbing conversation, one of the men shouted roughly to threaten the boy.

But when I saw that the boy continued to eat without moving at all, the man with the beard of the leader was cut.

"Fuck you, kid."

I shouted and stood up.

"Are you licking me?"

The boy finally turned his eyes to the man like ice.

It's not worth slashing.

The boy said.

If you want me to slash you, say so.

"What the hell, kid?"

The man finally managed to turn the table upside down.

Wait, wait, wait.

A man with a beard peeled off his eyes at the haunted young man who had barely broken into the boy and the men.

"What the hell, you bastard?"

"If you ask me, it's nothing."

The young man returns a dumb answer.

"But this is a tavern. The bar is a place to drink and eat.It's not a place to kill each other. "

Saying that, I stand in front of the men as if I were sheltering a boy.

Not to mention three adults and one child.

Get out of the way.

When he heard the word coming from behind him, the young man looked back with his eyes wide open.

What?

A cold-eyed boy looked at the young man.

"Pull back."

"What are you talking about?"

A young man frowns.

It's three adults.

"They're not ready to die."

The boy threw up.

"I'm not afraid of how many people there are"

"The kid licked me."

A man with a beard shouted.

I put my hand on the handle trying to pull out the barbarian sword that I held up on my waist.

I don't like it.

The young man quickly stretched out his body and held the handle of the barbarian sword with his hand from above.

You can't pull it out.

"You're retreating."

The man with the beard shouted and tried to untie him.However, the barbarian sword that was held by the young man's hand did not scare me.

Sugu

The man's face turns red.

"Get your hands off me."

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

The young man shakes his head with a serious expression.

"If you let go, you'll pull out."

Of course.

Well then, I won't let go.

“What's so messy?”

A fellow man pulled out his sword from his waist in anger.

"Enough. I'll do it."

That was when I tried to swing my sword at the boy.

A boy was stepping in without a sound.

The long sword stretched out to the man's neck at an unstoppable speed.

A metallic noise echoed throughout the store.

The boy opened his eyes wide.

The young man's unleashed sword was flipping back at the boy's long sword.

The man who took his whole life collapses from his waist to the floor like a soul.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

The young man looked at the boy with sharp eyes.

"Don't take your life so easily."

The boy blinked at the young man's face.

"What are you talking about?"

"That's why."

A young man turns to a boy.

"In a place like this, for such a boring reason"

The young man who said so suddenly twisted himself and waved his sword.

The sword that had just been unleashed was smashed and broken from its roots, and the man with the beard took a breath away.

"Don't kill each other so easily."

said the youth.

The boy put his long sword in the sheath when he saw the men who had run away and spit out the discard dialogue.

"You're strong."

The boy told the young man.

"It's strong, but it's funny."

"I think it's strange because you're a child."

The young man laughed brightly.

"But you're the strong one." Even though he's just a kid. "

"Don't say child, child, child."

The boy scolded the young man.

It's called Almark.

I see. I'm sorry.

The young man smiles.

"I am the" "Silver Whirlwind" "Balte."Have you ever heard of this name? "

When the boy shakes his head, the young man openly looks disappointed.

It's not spreading very well.

The boy asked, indifferent to the young man's expression.

"Why did you get in my way?"

Interrupting?

The young man frowned, and then nodded, "Oh.

"You mean the arbitration of the quarrel? That's right, I'll do it."

Saying that, I stretched my chest.

“Knight Balté doesn't see fruitless blood shed in front of him.”

Knight?

The boy looked at the young man with a lewd smell.

"Where is it?"

Hahaha. Well, I'm certainly not a knight yet.

The young man laughs cheerfully, and then sees the boy.

"But one day he will be a knight."

"It's a lie."

The boy shook his head.

"There are so many mercenaries in the north, no one can be a knight."

Saying that, he stares down at the young man.

"There's no way you can be one."

"I'll decide if I can or can't be."

The young man's tone was only bright and unshakable.

"I face up to my dream of becoming a knight."I won't run away or hide. "

In the eyes of the boy, who heard the words, an emotion close to hatred arose for a moment.

However, it quickly hid in an inorganic cold expression.

"It's a funny one."

The boy says so again, turning his eyes away from the young man.

"You must be on your way."

said the youth.

"Where are you going?"

South.

The boy answers with a smile.

"South, where's the south?"

"The south is the south."

The young man laughed funny at the boy's answer.

"I see, it's okay." Well then, let's go along the way. "

Why are you with me?

I thought you said I couldn't be a knight.

That's what the young man said when he saw the boy.

I smiled, but I only had serious eyes.The boy could not look straight into the eye.

"I'll show you." I'm going to be a knight. "
