Hard Work Will Never Betray Me

One afternoon, a long, quiet breeze was blowing. I was wi my father in the training area of our house.

"I have a vague idea of what kind of training you do in the mountains behind our  house, and I know that you're unusually strong for a six-year-old. But I'm not  gonna lose . Come at me with all you got "

You're not getting any younger, so don't get hurt.

You're right. I'm 29.

I'm only six.

Ha-ha-ha.

So much for laughter. The next moment, a tense air ...... flowed around us.

What we were doing now was martial arts training as part of  my noble education. The Farrenheit family is a military aristocracy family  that is responsible for the defense of the northern part of the empire as a northern general. As the future head of the family, I also need to be skilled in martial arts. That's why I'm training.

"Come."

My father urges me. I'll borrow from his technology , not as his son, but as his only disciple.

"Ha!　

I generate a [shock] in the sole of my foot and approach my father with explosive acceleration. However, he also dodges with his superhuman physical ability and throws a counter attack with his wooden sword  that held in both hands .

In order to dodge it, I release a shockwave from my left palm, forcibly change my stance, and then turn around and swing the wooden sword in my right hand as if I were reaping off his feet.

"not bad"

Seeing this, the  father shouted in admiration, but by stepping on my wooden sword with his right foot, he was able to catch the attack without difficulty and swung the wooden sword down in one stroke from the upper stance.

"Ah!"

I immediately let go of the wooden sword I was holding and used the recoil of the shockwave from my left hand and both feet to distance myself from my father's attack.

"...... Hmm!"

He calmly readjusts his wooden sword and cuts off all the impact bullets that hit him.

"Oh my god, ......"

No matter how strong he was, i didn't think that he would be able to slice through the impact bullet with a wooden sword. iaimed at the gap after the attack and fired at the fastest speed i could. As long as this didn't work, i probably wouldn't be able to defeat him with the shock bombs no matter how many  time ishot.

"Nice move."

He said, but he was not happy at all. I couldn't get him even a scratch. This was no good at all.

Losing my wooden sword, I thought about what I could do with my bare hands. Impact bullets are no good. If  i really try to shoot them, i will end up getting cut. Close combat is no good either. The non-attribute magic I use, "Body Strengthening," is no match for my father's extraordinary physical abilities. In the first place, my non-attribute magic is not enough to damage him. After all, the only way to deal an effective blow is with my own magic [Shock].

...What should i do? How to use [shock]?

The point is that  i can't be cut, you i  can't be avoided, and  i can only be [shock] from a short distance.

Then how about this?

After finishing my strategy, I faced  father who was waiting for me in a disciplined manner and put my hand on the ground.

The plan was to shake the ground. Good  idea!　But it won't matter if  he will  move faster than that!

If the ground is going to be shaken, then let's attack it before it shakes. It's a brainy idea, but just thinking about the over specified physical ability to carry it out is terrifying.

But this time, that brainpower was to my detriment. I am a child in appearance, but an adult in brain.  i wll be a great soldier, Eberhard.

Father is rushing at me at a speed that I can't even see. Of course, I can't avoid him. But as I watch him, I smile at him.

The next moment, he seemed to notice something. A look of impatience crosses his face. But it's too late.  he  can't stop at that speed.

I let go of my hand that was on the ground and set it in front of me. And then I converted the magic that I had developed beforehand into a unique magic and shot it out with all my might.

ooooooooo！！！！

"Geez"

I could hear my father's muffled voice. But the voice was soon blown away into the distance.

There was a great cloud of dust. I released a weak shockwave to dispel the dust cloud, leaving a ten-meter-long scar in front of me that looked like the ground had been gouged out.

I've won!

I declare victory.

. "Looks like  i won  ......."

But as soon as the smoke cleared, I saw a completely unharmed father  emerge from dozens of meters away, and I felt like crap.

I thought to myself, "Well, that's a good idea.  i were bluffing when  i tried to shake the ground.

"You're unharmed!"

"Well, I can't lose to my son yet. , but I'm going to let you win. In fact, if it hadn't been for me, you would have been mortally wounded."

"Hmm, I don't think I won at all. ......"

"No, I'm rather amazed that you fought this long without using any body-enhancing magic. Are you really six years old?　You're getting stronger."

Before I knew it, he was right in front of me, patting my head. I'm not sure if I'm happy, frustrated, or embarrassed, but I can't help but make an impatient face.

"Maybe we don't have to worry about you anymore."

"......?　What do you mean?"

Father  smiled and said.

"You've been saying you want to get outside  the property, haven't you?"

"Did you mean that?"

Yes. If you are this strong, there is no need to worry. You will be allowed to go out freely only within the territory of the county of Farenheit.

Yay!

But don't go to other territories by mistake. I don't care if you're an noble person, if the heir to a noble family enters another territory without permission, it could cause trouble between the families.

"I understand. I know that. Besides, our territory is huge, so i don't have to go that far to enjoy it."

"You don't have to go that far. Just let me know in advance if you'll be late."

"Yes, I know. "

The conversation ended there, and the old man looked around the training area.

"But, well,  here a lot of destruction."

"Yeah, well, ......."

It's not a garden, it's a training ground, and I wasn't told not to destroy it, so I did it to my heart's content and this is what I ended up with.

The old man put his hands on the ground and chanted a spell. The ground of the training ground, which had been battered with holes until a few moments ago, quickly returned to its original clean state.

Training ground, which had just been battered by holes, quickly returned to its original state.

This is the first time I've seen my dad use attribute magic.  My mother is usually in charge of magic, so I assumed that my father was a brainy soldier who only fought with bullets.

"Well, even with earth magic, Theresa uses it better than me."

Mother magic is amazing.

A fresh green saint who supports a fearless northern general. My mother, Theresia Sally von Flensburg Fahrenheit, is a well-known A + -ranked magician in the empire. Although she is not S rank because it is not very suitable for battle, the rumors of a saint who manipulates the two attributes of earth and water, and even the life magic derived from earth and water as a unique magic, are set with the heroic story of the northern general. It was famous among the people of the empire.

It is a rare attribute that only those with an aptitude for the two attributes of water and earth can manifest as a unique magic. It can not only heal the injured and sick, but also heal the tired, strengthen the healthy, and even give power to plants and animals.

My mother, Theresa, was known as the "Saint of Fresh Green" because she assisted her allies in battle by encouraging the growth of plants, making restorative medicines, and playing with the enemy.

Incidentally,  mufather's nickname was "War Demon. His father's nickname was "War Demon," which sounds awfully cool, but I guess you could say that his father had no equal in close combat.

When he was young, he was famous throughout the imperial army as a party of two, the "war demon" and the "new green saint".

In this mock battle, I strongly realized that I was not ready yet. Even though I'm superior in terms of magic power, I'm no match for them in actual combat. I want to surpass them someday, and become someone worthy of the name "Northern General", someone who can protect my family, including Lily.

Now that I've gotten permission to go outside the grounds, I'm going to head out to the castle town tomorrow. I want to see the big world, learn more about it, and become stronger.
