The strongest swordsman was disappointed with the world's too low level and reincarnated into a

I was finishing my job and coming home with Faraes.

So, it was one girl that got into my eyes.

"... Celia?

"Welcome home, Master"

"Ha, you home?

Celia welcomed me with a smile, so I gave it back for now.

"Why are you here?

"I called you."

It was Faraes who answered my question.

"Celia made the opportunity to talk to you because she couldn't seem to give up. Luckily, this house has extra room, and I was hoping to get you to stay tonight."

"I see, is that what you mean"

Faraes told me he would take Celia's side. For this reason, I am satisfied with this.

"Thank you, Captain Faraes"

"It's okay, Celia. Take your time today."

Faraes was stroking his head as he approached Celia. I don't know, is Celia a favorite of Faraes?

"In the meantime, shall we have dinner? Take your time after that."

"Yes!"

So, we were supposed to have dinner.

◇ ◇ ◇

"Master, can I talk to you?

After dinner, Celia spoke to me like that.

"I don't know..."

"After all, can't you?

"Well, I'd say no..."

When I get so much enthusiasm, I get rocked by boulders.

Perhaps I am very good as a disciple.

No, you mustn't lose that temptation. The will has to be firm.

"Master! Will you listen to me?

"Talk? What?

That's what Celia said when I was thinking about it.

Well, if you want to talk about it, can I ask?

"I want to talk to you about why I'm obsessed with my master."

"I see..."

That's not what I want to hear, either.

So far, I just think there's a reason why you're so obsessed with me.

"My house was a swordsman's house for generations."

"Hmm?"

Was it a family of swordsmen? Then I doubt you'll stick to me any more.

Because if you are a swordsman in a family line, you will have a genre specific to that family line and so on. Maybe Celia has something to do with home.

But the family's sword moves are predominantly defensive.

"Defense..."

When it comes to defense, you're quite different from me.

I am, in one way or another, the style of the attacking subject. In other words, it becomes the exact opposite of Celia's lineage of swords.

"My physique. Then I find it difficult to refine that sword technique."

"Well, maybe that..."

Sure, the defensive subject's sword moves, to the little Celia, could be a little harsh.

"So I think I have the right sword moves for me."

"... right"

I mean, that's my sword move.

"The sword used by the master seemed to be dominated by speed. That's exactly what I was looking for."

"Hmm...?

I see, you saw my attack and you thought so. Well, speed is also a hallmark of my sword.

"But if that's all, doesn't it have to be me? A sword for speed would have as much more than me, wouldn't it?

"That's not true. Speed is not the only thing in the master's sword moves. The strength, the run-off of the moves, it's amazing anyway!

My question raised Celia's tension.

Not really, it doesn't cage in meaning, but it only conveys enthusiasm.

"So, master! Please! Make me your apprentice!

"Ugh...!

Celia bowed her head and asked me to.

So far, if they show me, I'm really going to shake it too.

A disciple. Can I take a disciple and do it well?

I'm still immature, too. Can an immature man make Celia a swordsman?

"... I have something for my master to see. Will you go out to the garden?

"Garden?"

That's what Celia said when I was worried.

"... ok, let's go"

I can't read the intentions, but for now I decide to head to the garden.

◇ ◇ ◇

Me and Celia were in the courtyard.

"Here, what are you going to do?

"Yes, I'd like to work with my master again."

That's how Celia answers my question.

A match. But Celia's prowess is largely understood in the previous battle.

Now, what will you show me?

"Master, attack me..."

"Attack?"

"Yes, I want you to accept my master's attack."

I see, now you're going to set me up.

Perhaps the defense of the lineage will show us the swordsmanship of the subject?

But even though you don't like it and you want to apprentice me, don't feel like using it is a funny story.

Well, fine. I don't know what it is, but do you want to do it for now?

"All right, then set it up."

"Yes!"

Me and Celia can do it almost simultaneously.

"Let's go!

"Yes!"

And I was slaughtered against Celia.

Celia keeps my knife safe with her sword.

"Yeah? This!? No way!?"

"Secret Sword Skill! Stream Water!"

"Ugh!"

My sword has been diverted by Celia.

That's due to the moves I used in my battle with Mr. Gogassa.

"Master... this is what I think"

"Become...!

You mean you imitated my moves just once you saw them?

What a talent.

"I've been thinking and practicing myself ever since I saw that move..."

No, it's not just talent.

Admiring my sword moves, I guess I wanted to wear them myself and tried my best.

It was the strength of that thought that made Celia wear this move.

"Would you like to make me... an apprentice?

Celia stares at me with both her eyes.

That's it, you want to be my apprentice?

"Thoughts..."

So I remember what Faraes told me.

Celia wants to be an apprentice to me now. Wouldn't that be very gratifying?

I want to draw that thought now.

Whether you're immature or whatever, I'm the only one who can lead you now.

"Celia......"

"Master?"

I put my hand on Celia's shoulder.

"Your thoughts...... I do understand"

"Master...!

"I'm still immature, too. But I wanted to make you my apprentice. I don't know how much you can give me..."

My heart seems to have been shot out by Celia.

As a master, I don't know how much I can do, but I'll try anyway.

"Let me be your master."

"... Yes! Absolutely!"

Celia answered my call out loud.

◇ ◇ ◇

When me and Celia got back inside the house, Faraes was waiting.

"Looks like you're done..."

"Yes!"

"It seemed like a good result, above all. I'm happy for you, too."

Faraes smiles and strokes Celia's head. After all, did you love Celia?

"Slade, you seem to be breaking too..."

"Oh......"

Faraes' smile is pointed at me and illuminates me by accident.

Nevertheless, did it turn out to be the way Faraes wanted it to be?

"Did you know this was going to happen?

"No, I just wanted this to happen. To that end, Celia was also invited. That's all..."

"I see..."

Well, I was feeling that way. I don't know, I don't seem to be hostile to Faraes in many ways.

"Well, anyway, hello from now on, Celia!

"Yes! Master!

This is how I had a disciple.
