Umarekawatta “Kensei” Wa Raku o Shitai

Walking over the outer walls surrounding the school, Aria was looking toward the town.If you walk a little outside, it quickly becomes a boundary that covers the school perimeter.

Even if there was a reaction to this, Aria, a student, could not notice - so Aria bounded herself, including the outer wall.

Sprinkle the magical thread around, and as soon as someone touches it, Aria will notice.

As far as Alta is concerned, though, the enemy is not moving towards this school.

This means that nothing will happen here as Alta is out there - Aria looks around.

……

Still, Aria was tasked with guarding the school.

So, even if there is a high probability that the enemy will not come, I will not fail to be vigilant.

If you glimpse down, you can see a few knights walking around in this neighborhood alone - the fact that Alta is away means there are many other knights on guard here.

Aria turned to the dormitory - earlier, she had a light practice with England, had dinner with her as usual, and took a bath to break up.

She doesn't seem to have noticed anything and can be said to be living as usual.

It's only natural that you should not be distracted, but if Alta solves the case as it is, we can definitely end it without involving England.

It took some time, but Aria was finally convinced in that direction.

If England finds out, it will surely patrol the city at night - but it will begin to say so.Alternatively, you may embark on an investigation on a day when there is no class.

Either way, England will definitely do something about it.When that happens, Aria has prioritized action to protect England.

If that was the natural course of action for Aria, and Alta would rather not involve England, then she should have agreed.

(The teacher is thinking about England.Yeah, that's fine.)

Alta would never lose no matter how strong his enemies were - at least Aria believed so.

I've never seen a swordsman as good as he is.

Aria herself and Alta have been practicing together, but I still can't think of a "winning landscape".

Meanwhile, growth in England has been remarkable, and even if Aria has fought seriously now, the odds of winning are probably low.

England is getting closer and closer to Alta's strength.As for Aria, it was somewhat regrettable.

(... maybe I'll talk to my teacher about how to be stronger...)

When I was thinking about it, I saw two girls walking in front of Aria's eyes.

There is a school grounds where they are still wearing student clothes.Most of the students should have already returned to the dormitory, but at this time, there are also "school festivals", and some students return home late.

Both were classmates of Aria and one was an executive committee member.

It must have been this time we were talking about the school festival.Without paying particular attention, Aria lost sight - at the moment, at the edge of her vision, she caught a strange presence.

……

Aria looks back.The figure heading towards the dormitory - its entire body is wrapped in armor.

Unlike the kingdom's knight costume, the dark armor is not conspicuous.

But Aria's eyes certainly didn't miss the dark knight's movements.

(Knight... no.But there was no reaction to the border.The entrance...)

The boundary is not broken - that is, the dark knight who appeared in the school came in without reacting to the boundary.

It should have been impossible as usual for outsiders to enter without breaking the border.

Aria takes a dagger out of her pocket and takes a stand.

While looking at the situation from a distance, I was going to identify the intruder - but I saw the classmates returning to the girls' dorm approaching the dark knight.

"Oh, there's someone here."

"Sensei... I don't think so.It's dark and I can't see well..... "

The distance between the two girls and the dark knight is not so close yet.

But the dark knight also seemed to have noticed the existence of the two.

Though he was supposed to be heading towards the dormitory, the knight in dark turned and headed toward the two students.

"Eh, hey, what...?They're not coming this way!?

"And stop!

With the sword hanging from her hips removed, the dark knight slashed the two female students without hesitation.--But the blade will not reach both of them.

……

The knight's raised arms stood still before reaching the girl student.

It was Aria, who was still far away, who stopped it.

As she jumped over the tree, Aria threw a small weight with thread and wrapped it around the knight's arm in black.

He's stopping the knight on his own.

"Quick, run!

"! Ah, Aria-san...!?What the hell is this? "

"Stop it! Hurry up!

Aria screams at the students who are confused by sudden events.

The dark knight noticed the presence of Aria and turned around.It is immediately apparent that the "killer spirit" was directed at Aria.

I can exert all my strength to pull the thread, but when the knight weakens the hand holding the sword slightly - I cut the thread that had caught my arm in the meantime.

Ugh!

Aria loses her balance, but she rotates her body and lands on the ground.

Soon Aria ran under the dark knight - and the dark knight was also heading towards Aria.

Aria swings her dagger in quick motion and the dark knight responds.We moved to cross each other, looked back and confronted each other again.

(.....! I couldn't help it.)

Aria notices the pain in her side.

When I looked at it, my clothes were torn and I bled.Meanwhile, Aria's blade did not reach the dark knight.

Strong - I quickly understood that the relative strength of the dark knight was high.

And Aria breathes into the killing temper directed at herself.

But take a big breath right away and breathe.

"I don't know how you snuck in... but what brings you here?

……

The dark knight stays silent and doesn't answer.

Aria lowered her posture with a dagger.

"All right, if you don't answer, I'll just take you down and I'll find out."

Immediately afterwards, Aria and the dark knight moved simultaneously.
