Gordon Corriman doubted what he saw.
incompetent nerd.
That was the look of Raymond that Gordon Corriman remembered.
An idiot who doesn’t know how to do anything and bullies others with only his background.
Saying magic is the best, ignoring the knight.
That’s why he had no doubt that Raymond would lose miserably to the youngest knight.
The battle between Raymond, who had never trained before, and the youngest knight, who devoted his whole life to the sword, was already decided.
But it wasn’t.
What he saw was the opposite. The youngest knight was pushed back by Raymond from the start.
It wasn’t a match in the first place. The youngest knight’s sword didn’t work on Raymond at all.
Could it be that Raymond used magic? not. that was impossible
No matter how foolish Raymond was, would he still break the rules at a place like this?
Above all, Raymond is incompetent. It was funny to hear that he used magic when he didn’t know how to use it. And there was no way that the youngest knight would lose with swordsmanship just because he used it.
The Millennium family is a magical family, and the knights of that family learn how to deal with magic.
In many ways, the youngest knight had no choice but to win.
However, Raymond, who grabbed the sword, changed his mood at some point.
It became more serious and sharper.
The sparring began, and Gordon Corriman was unknowingly admiring it.
Raymond’s swordsmanship was practical. He knew how to effectively subdue his enemies.
That alone was great.
It was impossible for Raymond, who had never held a sword, to know how to wield a sword.
Yeah, it wasn’t just that I wasn’t confident.
At some point, that thought turned to astonishment.
Raymond’s momentum changed. The killing spree that erupted in an instant was so intense that he almost pulled out his sword.
And in the end, I couldn’t save my admiration to see the youngest knight subdued.
Although it was true that he didn’t like it, one thing was certain.
‘He’s a genius. The Bocchan had a talent for swords, not magic.’
That too is an overwhelming talent.

“after… .”
I calmed down my fastened breath. Slowly, he lowered the wooden sword he had aimed at the youngest knight’s neck.
The murderous feeling that I had been unknowingly engulfed inside my body in an instant.
‘good.’
Yes, this is how it feels. I really like the feeling of swinging a sword and sweating.
He looked up at the sky and lowered his head slightly.
The youngest knight looked up blankly at me.
A look in your eyes that you can’t believe what you’ve been through.
I liked that look. The most appropriate look for a family knight, a dog.
“Tsk.”
Maybe it was because my immersion was broken, and then I felt pain in my palm.
When I clicked my tongue to avoid revealing that I was sick, the youngest knight in front flinched and shuddered.
When I lowered my gaze, blood dripped from the hand holding the wooden sword.
this. It was unreasonable to hold a wooden sword any longer.
“receive.”
He handed over the wooden sword as if throwing it at the youngest knight who had gone mad.
The youngest knight hurriedly accepted the wooden sword.
And seeing the blood on the handle of the wooden sword, it hardened.
It was clear that he was worried about what the injured boy would do.
As I was about to shake my hands to shake off the blood, Ellis rushed over.
“Bocchan’s hand.”
Then he took out a handkerchief and wrapped it around my hand.
This will stop the bleeding quite a bit and you’ll be able to hold on until you get to the therapist.
Looking down at her, my thoughts were elsewhere.
‘It’s refreshing.’
Swinging the sword was like a sense of liberation.
By swinging the sword, he poured out all the emotions he had stored inside.
After swinging the sword, the stomach feels relieved.
‘It hurts.’
The palm of the handkerchief tightly bound was still sore.
On the contrary, the wound and the handkerchief touched each other, adding to the pain.
I tried to tell her to go to the infirmary, but I kept my mouth shut.
The knight commander with a stiff face was approaching.
‘Since I have to give up the position of captain of the knights, it must be helpless.’
it’s a lifetime job Do you have to put down the general manager position, which you could barely get by adding effort upon effort, in a single bet?
It would be hard to believe the current situation. Maybe you can’t accept the bet.
‘It’s not that I don’t understand.’
He is the captain of the Knights of the Millennium Count family.
There was no one who could easily let go of what was obtained at the end of hard work.
‘I don’t intend to let go of the general manager position in the first place.’
It was funny that he ignored me.
I also wanted to hold the sword again.
I had no intention of letting him go.
It would be very annoying if he let go of the general manager position. You may be called to Count Millennium and be reprimanded.
I’m already busy, but I didn’t want to waste my time on just that.
“young master.”
he opened his mouth A face that organizes thoughts.
“it’s okay. Let’s pretend it didn’t happen today. I’ll be a nuisance if you give up your position as general manager.”
I guessed what he was trying to say.
So you don’t have to listen.
I waved my hand as if not to speak.
“… .”
The knight commander kept his mouth shut.
It’s probably embarrassing at my unexpected words.
“Do your training properly. Don’t be conceited and tarnish the family’s name.”
He nodded as if to return to Elise.
Alice nodded slightly and tried to guide me.
The knight commander stood in my way.
“What.”
I was a little annoyed. I’d appreciate it if you kept the position of captain.
“young master.”
“what.”
The knight commander took the weight.
What are you trying to say? No matter what you say now, it’s just ridiculous.
“This bet is… .”
Is it hard to believe that you lost?
“What is this bet?”
If you look at the novel, there were such guys. Guys who made a bet with the main character and won’t admit they lost.
Is it different from being a knight commander? Not like that.
Those who have risen to the rank of knight commander have strong pride. He hated losing to an idiot like Raymond more than dying.
Contrary to what I thought Gordon Correman would be no different from him.
“Are you sure you don’t want to learn swordsmanship?”
he said something unexpected.
They tell me to learn swordsmanship.
As I stared at him in bewilderment, he continued.
“Swordsmanship. You have talent!”
The knight commander started to get excited. His eyes were glistening with greed.
“I have met quite a few articles. But no one can use the first sword like the young master.”
“therefore?”
I stared at him. What he said was right.
Certainly, my swordsmanship is hard to think of as holding a sword for the first time.
It was a natural reaction since he imitated the main character’s swordsmanship.
“You have great talent! From that domineering swordsmanship to how to effectively subdue them. If someone who didn’t know saw it, they would have thought that the young master trained all his life. No, you would have known him as a mercenary who roamed the battlefield.”
The words were too verbose.
Even if I say it briefly, I can understand it enough.
“It’s too long. Keep things brief.”
His long words made me confused as to what he was trying to say.
You can tell what he’s trying to say without having to wrap it up.
“Learn swordsmanship from me. I will make you stronger.”
makes it stronger
Those words were attractive enough to me, who had a strong desire to live.
Yes, at least for those who have a lot of time and a strong desire to become stronger.
I want to be strong. But that’s not right now.
There were many more important things to me than practicing swordsmanship.
And all of those things are essential to protecting my life.
What you can’t get right now and what you can get even though it’s hard.
If anyone had to choose one of those two, wouldn’t he choose the second?
“I don’t have time for that.”
There is no time.
because it was true
In order to create a force to oppose the main character, you have to move quickly.
“But… .”
Despite my words, the knight commander did not give up.
I couldn’t give up. I think the ‘acting’ I showed touched him greatly.
great talent.
Because anyone who handles a sword wants and desires it.
“Doesn’t the young master say he won’t do it?”
Alice stepped out, perhaps noticing that I was in trouble.
The knight commander glanced at her and fixed his gaze on me.
Alice tried to argue with him, covering my face.
“young master?”
stopped her What she does here comes back as poison.
You can see him as a shameless man hiding behind a woman.
I didn’t respond to the bet to get that kind of attention.
“I don’t have time to learn swordsmanship. Let me take your sword instead.”
“… .”
At my words, the knight commander’s face hardened slightly.
“Will that be enough?”
“… Do you know what that means?”
“know. No, that’s what I’m saying.”
The knight commander hesitated for a moment. Then, he knelt down on his left knee, unsheathed the sword from his waist, and handed it to me with both hands.
“I’ll take it well.”
The knight commander’s sword was a little different from the knight’s sword.
If it is said that those who receive the knight’s sword, receive the knight’s loyalty.
It can be said that the sword of the knight commander gains the favor of the whole knight order.
As long as I have this sword, unless I am an idiot, the knights cannot easily touch me.
Because insulting me is insulting the knight commander.
Receiving a sword from the knight commander means that he acknowledged me.
Besides that, there are things that catch me about my behavior, but I didn’t receive it with that meaning anyway.
‘Because if I have this sword, I have to learn his swordsmanship at least once.’

Knowing that, the knight commander gave the sword even though hesitantly.
I never thought I would give it to you.
It seems to be firmly attached to me.
“Let’s go back.”
“Yes Yes!”
Alice’s face brightened and guided me.
***
A full moon has passed.
During that time, I exercised and prepared for the banquet.
‘This banquet is the battleground.’
There weren’t many ways to get acquainted with the lady of a famous swordsman who lived far away.
It was not possible to visit Count Warug’s house at will, and days like this were extremely rare.
‘I’ve prepared enough.’
Get enough exercise, and make clothes for the banquet.
I had a busy day.
Is it because there is a purpose of getting close to Selina, and furthermore, of making my side?
As the banquet approached, the tension increased.
Will I be able to do well? A moment’s mistake can blow that opportunity away.
‘Just do it like now.’
took a deep breath. It’s not good to be so nervous already.
Just act like you normally would.
‘Tomorrow.’
For the sake of tomorrow when the banquet will be held, you should take enough rest now.
Anything requires confidence and stamina.
I closed my eyes at that thought.
And.
The day of the banquet was bright.
