Shinka no Mi

"Um... so? Can you tell me why I'm being taken?

That's what I asked as I was dragged around the city by two people, Claudia and Rhona.

What a surreal way to be held beside and dragged by two beautiful girls, isn't it? I cry at my gaze from around me. Plus, Donna's been flowing through my head for a while now!

"Oh well. You haven't told me yet."

Mr. Claudia, who took my question, told me, as I recall.

"Makoto. You won the King's Cup, didn't you?

"Yeah, well."

"That's why."

"... Yes?

I don't know what that means, and when I ask back, Mr. Claudia continues.

"Don't you remember? The winner is given the right to be able to act together for a day with us [the Battle Maiden of Kensei (Valkyrie)] …"

"Ah!"

"You seem to remember. You didn't seem to be at the award ceremony for some reason, and maybe you're not interested in the winning prize itself? I've been thinking about it... but apparently you weren't really interested in it."

Yabe, I totally forgot.

Me, I should have had a full memory skill, but when I did, I forgot things violently. What do you mean, your skills are fraudulent? Is that a skill scam? No, it's Kefir.

Well, like magic and other skills, I remember exactly what I need, so I may be making my own decisions about what I need and what I don't need to remember.... What about that?

That's fine, though I didn't expect that right to be activated all of a sudden on the day the King's Capital Cup ended. For once, though the Wang Du Cup ended in the morning, it's too steep.

Mr. Claudia laughs bitterly, as he perceived my insides like that.

"Ha. Well, we're not free either. Sorry for the inconvenience."

"Ah! Look, ku-chan! There's a delicious skewer for sale at the dewstore over there! Let's go eat tomorrow too! And then there's the accessory store! There will be a lot of new clothes out there, and hey, I'm really busy!

"... I'm really not free. I want you to believe me."

Mr. Claudia laid her hand on Rhona's line and looked up to heaven. You're struggling.

Such an exchange had brought me to the sight of the royal castle at some point.

"Well... this is the castle of the Kingdom of Wimbling- [Archshell Castle]"

Proudly so, Mr. Claudia.

But I looked up at the castle in front of me, ignoring it.

It may be rude to ignore Mr. Claudia's words, but that's about it, the castle in front of him was huge and overwhelming.

It was more than I felt when I first came to this Terveil and was excited to watch with Salia in the distance.

"Wow..."

I never had a chance to see a castle first when I was on Earth. No, I've seen Japanese castles, and I've seen castles in the dream country where a rat lives, but it was the first time a proper king lived in a Western castle.

That's why I was overwhelmed by the presence of this Archshell Castle.

When he looked up at me looking up at the castle, Mr. Claudia grinned with satisfaction.

"Yeah, you seem to like it. Above all. Well, let's get in there."

In the form that follows Mr. Claudia, he enters the castle gate.

At that time, at the gate leading outside the city, a man in the same armor as Claude, who was guarding him, was saluting Mr. Claudia and Mr. Rhona. Awesome.... small feeling.

At the end of the gate there was a large luxurious garden with flowers of various colors blooming. Yet the smell of flowers was not quarreling, each insisting modestly on the smell. Awesome.

At the center, there is a fountain, presumably of sorcery. Already, wow.... It's time for me to cry to myself who can only say what I think.

It hurts like hell. I stopped somewhere when I was following Mr. Claudia.

"This is the training ground for the soldiers of the Wimbledon kingdom."

"By the way, even if everyone in the Magic Division unleashes their magic with all their might, there's a bond that doesn't even freak out! However, if I use such dangerous magic, Louis would be mad at me!

"... Well, in the case of Lord Lewis, I just seem to be doing more of a clerical task than angry. Before Seiichi picked you up, I watched how Lorna was getting a cage from Lewis about the prize of the Wang Du Cup, but her expression didn't change more than usual..."

"Oh, don't remind me! George from the Intelligence Department, who hid a photograph of Louis with me. I can't believe you couldn't stand Louis' cage and before you headed to the inn, he said, 'Haha, the wooden sword... the wooden sword that slashes the iron on me... it's coming at me...! I don't want you to come over here. Ahhhhhhh!' Cause it broke!

"... did you take him to the infirmary?

"I had trouble dealing with them, so I left them. Ku...... George, I will never forget your bravery......!

"... you're alive, aren't you? George, sir."

"Mr. George? Who is it? It."

"You're a ghost...!

"Can I go home?!?"

I finally became unbearable and interrupted the conversation and told them so.

'Cause you do!? If you'd just shut up and listened, you wouldn't have a decent word in your ear...!

I didn't want to stay in such a dangerous place for long. No, I don't think so!? More than that, George, you and I are too pitiful! I deserve more than half of it!

But if you don't let me get away with it, Mr. Claudia grabbed my shoulder.

"... unfortunately, give it up. This is what's happening in this country…"

"So is the guild, but it's probably in the royal castle too!?"

There are only perverts and freaks in this country! But its perverted is going in a good direction, so bad tach......!

Maybe we're all happy here because it's made up of freaks.... okay? So.

"Hmm? Oh, that's just great. Makichi, look at that."

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Mr. Claudia prompted me to do so, and I saw the direction Mr. Claudia had given me.

Several women were seen with wooden swords, wearing the same armor as Mr. Claudia and Mr. Rhona at the corner of the training ground.

"Is that... training?

"That's right. Our Valkyrie training."

"And that's our captain - - Jesus!

Again, if you look closely, the women with the wooden sword stood in a way that surrounded one woman. I can confirm his appearance, but I don't see his face very well.

"Come on, let's take a closer look!

"Right. Makichi, this should be a good inspiration for you."

Get close to those women as they are urged by the two of you.

Then finally we could confirm the appearance of the woman who was surrounded.

Straight in water, stretched to the waist to flow. Amazingly neat face.

The pale armor, in its sophisticated and sleek form, has no martial bone impression whatsoever.

Surrounded by the women with wooden swords, but with the wooden sword resting on their hips, his eyes closed and his pure white cloak nestled were the Rin noble knights themselves. Mr. Lurne, please apprentice this man.

"Can you see that? The person at the center of it is Louis."

"Look closely! Because it will be over in an instant!

Because Rhona was so excited, I decided to observe their training landscape.

Then, the women who had ever erected the wooden sword are slashed at the same time by a person named Louis.

I got it from Zeanos, with Zefford Stream Guardian Swordsmanship, I ended up knocking it down and getting it, not the technology I wore at the end of a long training, so the swordsmanship itself was amateur alike.

But even from me, it was easy to see that their sword muscles were sophisticated, a gesture of duty.

That sword speed was amazingly fast, even for me with heart and eye skills.

Their, arguably the synagogue, blow is concentrated and swung down over Mr. Lewis' head.

Exactly, all those wooden swords strike directly at Mr. Lewis - that was the moment I thought so.

――――

Mr. Lewis opened his eyes quietly.

In the blink of an impending wooden sword on Mr. Lewis, I could see with my eyes that she captured all the wooden swords with clear sky-blue eyes, like a surface with no waves.

And...

……

Flash.

Mr. Lewis, more than any of the women she had surrounded herself, pulled out the wooden sword on her hips at an overwhelming rate before shaking it off.

The speed was so fast that the mental eye skills were almost pointless.

The thing that Mr. Lewis slashed...... it was the wooden sword of the women who were slashed at the same time. Besides, the slashed wooden sword quietly fell off the tip of the sword with a bright incision, as I don't think it was slashed with the same wooden sword.

The women whose weapons had been slashed all had a flashing look on their faces, and Mr. Lewis quietly lowered his back as he gently shook off the wooden sword.

"- The sword speed is up. But the sword muscle is too honest. To refine."

'Huh! Ha! Thank you!

When I told the women in a beautiful voice, which suited some floating away atmosphere, the women replied well.

... Whoa, whoa, only one of you is out of strength. What? That human estranged move. I think you're more of a monster than I am.

Claudia and the others were laughing bitterly as I blurted at my ability to fly too far.

"Ha... as always, I can't see the sword at all. They, too, are more than 250 strong men on the level, and I have 380 myself...... Lorna, did you see that?

"You can't recognize me at Ku-chan's level, but you can't see me at 360."

"Hmmm...... in the case of Lewis, I feel like even the same level of 500 as Lewis would be in a similar situation"

"Hey, that's just... that? undeniable!?"

Apparently, the two of you didn't see Mr. Lewis' attack earlier. Nevertheless, Mr. Claudia's level is 380, and Mr. Rhona is 360. To Mr. Lewis, is it 500?

With that in mind, Mr. Lewis noticed us and approached us.

"Claudia, Rhona. Are you back?"

The two of you who hear that word correct their posture and salute them.

"Yes, I brought you"

"It's perfect already!

"Lorna, if you hadn't done something extra, it wouldn't have been too much trouble."

That's the kind of Mr. Lewis in some pale tone.

Rhona whistles out of her sight and Claudia laughs bitterly at how it goes.

And Mr. Lewis turned his gaze toward me.

"So, are you Makoto?

"Huh? Ah, yes"

"I am Luis Barze, who leads the [Battle of Swordsaints Maiden (Valkyrie)] of this Wimbling kingdom"

Even when I was introducing myself, the look on Mr. Lewis's face remained unchanged. Anyway, it's faceless.

"Well... now, take this"

"To?"

Looking at his face to an extent that would not be disrespectful, Mr. Lewis gave him a wooden sword abruptly. Uh...?

"Let's do a mock fight"

"Can I go home?

I didn't mean to ask, I don't think it's bad.

But Mr. Lewis shakes his neck quietly beside him.

"If my men hadn't even prepared a weird prize, it wouldn't have happened, but if you'd won the King's Capital Cup and that prize would be spent with us, I'd have to take full responsibility for it"

"I think that sense of responsibility is so great, why a mock fight?

"? No matter why they said... I thought it was on my own that spending time with us meant attending training together... is it not?

Akan, this guy's unconscious!

I think Rhona's intention, with absolutely this right in place, is to enjoy spending time with all the Valkyries full of beauty and with Mr. Luis.

Yet Mr. Lewis seems to mistakenly believe that he will be given the right to receive training together.

Instead of being trained, is that a prize?

"Well anyway, let's take a look at your arm for once. If there's anything I can point out, I'll point it out, and if I can fix it, you'll be stronger than you are now."

"Heh? No, heh..."

I try to speak to Mr. Lewis, but she was already in a position to get away from me and start a mock fight at any time.

And Mr. Claudia and the rest of the Valkyries are way away from us and are no longer in complete game watching mode. There's no escape...!

Mr. Lewis speaks to me in disdain.

"I'll always be okay, won't I?

"Huh? Um, me..."

"So let's start with the defensive side."

My idiot......! Clearly say no! It's no longer an atmosphere where you can say no!

As he was giving himself a fierce scratch, Mr. Lewis quietly pulled out the wooden sword.

"Well, then - I'll come"

"Huh!?"

Mr. Lewis, like when he was watching the battle earlier, swung sharply into each of me when his mind and eye skills approached me at a rate that seemed pointless.

I avoid that attack, almost like a reflex, by flying as far back as I can.

At that time, I had a small crater on the ground... but yeah, I don't care.

"... surprised. I didn't know my first shot would be easy..."

"No, it wasn't easy..."

"Fine, I'll do everything I can from here."

"Why do so many people not listen to this!?"

Mr. Lewis declares an attack with all his might, even though he said it wasn't easy. You're gonna cry one of these days, me.

With that in mind, it was only this time that Mr. Lewis waved a wooden sword from a remote position at a rate that could not really be captured by the skilled mind eye.

... Shhhhh!

"Hey!? The attack behavior and sound are not aligned!?"

I heard a sound a little late when I wondered if Mr. Lewis waved the wooden sword down silently. Mr. Io Kokudo is surprised too!

And in the form of a surprise chase at me, a slaughter beyond the speed of sound is imminent.

"I don't like this guy anymore!

I avoided the slaughter by flying.

But...

"Huh! Huh!

... Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Four more slashes over the speed of sound flew at me again!

Slash over the speed of sound. What the hell!? This is a dead attack if it wasn't for me quitting humans!?

First of all, it's not an attack that can be recreated with a wooden sword! After avoiding it, it leaves a clean slash on the ground, so I don't know!

I keep avoiding slaughtering beyond the speed of one attack after another, in all sorts of positions. Whoa!? I almost hit you in the face!?

"... Lewis is probably right, but Makoto, who keeps avoiding that attack intact, has quit human enough."

"That's right, you just won the King's Capital Cup in Lova. Level, how many is it?

"No, before that, Makoto, who is avoiding the real slaughter of Jesus, is abnormal. Assuming he is the highest level of humanity, 500, there is no way he can avoid the same level of Lewis' attack unharmed. Is he really just an adventurer?

"Hmmm... for once, George, I asked you to look into it, but he really seems to be a new adventurer who recently came to this city and just signed up for the guild"

"... George, you're doing great."

While I keep desperately avoiding it, Claudia and the others are having such little talk. Chickshaw!

"... I'm really surprised. I can't believe my seriousness doesn't work..."

That's what Mr. Luis muttered in a slightly shocked voice as he continued to avoid the slaughter unleashed by Mr. Luis in a heartbeat.

"... So how about this?

Once I wondered if the slaughter storm had stopped, now it was getting closer to me, faster than at first.

"Ha!"

And in the form of a swing off my head, Mr. Lewis has fired a sharp blow.

I can't avoid that speed and sharpness. No, it really sucks!?

Indeed, as when you avoid the first attack, if you mean it somewhat, it will be possible to avoid it.

But more than that, a blow above my reflex speed is shaking me down.

In the first place, I didn't need to get mucky and fight, so I deliberately hit the attack, and I was thinking about getting it done.

But right? You can't do that!? What kind of attack are you on the ground with a wooden sword?!? If they used skills like Black Dragon God's "Transmission," they would definitely mince my body!? You can't go for the attack because you're scared!

When I avoided the first attack, I made a crater on the ground because I accidentally avoided it a little seriously, but Mr. Lewis is a monster enough too, right?!?

For once, being from the same high school as everyone summoned brave meant that I wanted to avoid being treated as brave as possible with some kind of clap, so I hadn't done everything I could before there were people.

But Mr. Lewis' attack was so nasty that he accidentally avoided it a little seriously.

... If I eat this attack, will I not die? You don't have to die, it looks painful......

It was then that I reached the frontier of giving up, looking at the gradually approaching wooden sword.

'The effect of Skill [Evolution] has been activated. This will adapt your body to combat. Due to body adaptations, Skill [Mind Eye] was synthesized with Skill [Sovereign] and changed to Skill [World Eye]. Additionally, I have mastered the skill [Reflective Defense]'

It's been a while since such an inorganic voice has flown into my brain.

When I was surprised by the voices flowing into my abrupt brain, Mr. Lewis' wooden sword had finally reached me and had come from there to the point where great power could be applied.

But...

"Huh!?"

My body turned the situation upside down.

From the wooden sword that struck the brain heaven, in order to shed the power that could be conveyed, when he knelt at a speed greater than the speed of the wooden sword in the same direction as the direction in which the wooden sword was to be swung down, he took a short distance under the Baku rotation procedure, while at the same time kicking up the arm that Mr. Lewis had been swinging down in the motion of swinging up his leg, causing the wooden sword to release from his hand.

And to Mr. Lewis, who opened his eyes, as soon as I landed, I put a wooden sword on my neck.
