I was talking to Sona on the doorstep of the Faraese family.

She says she met Celia's brother at the base.

"... so what did that brother do?

Sona's atmosphere tells me that what her brother brings is not a good one.

What the hell did they say?

"... they won't recognize your relationship with your mentors."

"... what?

It was those words that emanated from Sona.

Deny my relationship with Celia's mentor. I wonder why that is.

"Anyway, I want you and Celia at the base. Now, Dion is dealing with him, but he doesn't have a very good vibe..."

"Okay...... wait a minute"

I ran through the front door to Celia's room.

◇ ◇ ◇

"Celia, are you there?

I'll knock on the door of the room and call Celia.

"Master? I'll open it now"

Celia responded quickly and opened the door.

"Is something wrong?

"... oh"

Looking at me, Celia seems to have guessed something happened.

Cutting this story out to Celia is hard but I can't help it.

"I hear your brother's in base."

"Huh? Your brother...?

Celia changed her face to my words.

The look on his face makes him look anxious. Just the word that he had a brother. Now, sibling relationships seem hard to say are good.

"So... your brother, what?

He said he wouldn't approve of our relationship.

"... no"

Celia looks pretty shocked at the suggestion from her brother.

He was denied his path. It won't even be possible.

"Celia, I'm sorry I'm in shock, but I want to head to base right away. I don't know what your brother thinks, but it's like a bad vibe with Dion right now."

"... ok. Let's go."

Me and Celia headed right for the front door.

◇ ◇ ◇

Me and Celia rendezvoused with Sona, who was waiting on the front porch, and headed to base.

After running for a while and getting to base, I hurried to where Celia's brother was on Sona's guide.

"Over there."

In the hallway where Sona is, she shrugged.

At the end of that gaze, there are two people.

One of us is Dion from Team Four. For that reason, I guess the other is Celia's brother. Celia told me her name, and she said it was Celik. In the Knights, he appears to belong to the Fifth Squad.

With that in mind, we came all the way home to Selik and Dion.

"... Celia"

The celik person, recognizing this one, stares at Celia first.

Next thing you know, you've got your eye on me. It's like hostility that lives in its eyes.

"... I heard you apprenticed and doubted your ears."

"Brother, I..."

"Shut up. I'm not going to listen to you. It is unforgivable to abandon our traditional swordsmanship and to teach such an incomprehensible person…"

Apparently, Celik doesn't care that Celia ditched the sword moves in the house and what she taught me.

"... I don't want to be tied to traditional sword moves. Besides, I can't allow you to say bad things about your master!

"Hmm..."

Celia argues, Celik narrows his eyes.

"When you say that..."

And I put my hand on a sword that I could carry on that hip.

This won't be good.

"You should stop..."

As I was about to move, one voice echoed before that.

That's the voice of Dion, one of the Fourth Squad.

Dion enters between Selik and us and puts his hand on the sword of his hips.

"Get out of my way...... Dion. It's none of your business."

"That's not going to happen. They are my dear friends. [M] You can't overlook the harm you do to them."

Dion and Selik, though sinister, seemed a little familiar. Maybe I knew him.

But that doesn't matter now.

"If you're going to pull out your sword, I'll deal with you... and I'll stop you from committing your crime"

"... you think you can beat me?

To Dion's words, Selik distorts the edge of his face. I guess Dion thinks he's no match for himself.

"If you don't try, I don't know..."

"Then you can try."

"What!?

So Selik pulled out his sword.

This is obviously a provocation against Dion.

"What's up? You're not coming?

"What does it mean to pull it out..."

"You can count on it. If you're gonna call me, come...!

Selik lays down his sword and waits for Dion to attack.

"Fine. If that's what you're gonna do, there's no choice!

Dion was baffled by that attitude, but it looks like he decided to pull out his sword.

Selik didn't make it slight against the impending Dion.

"Ahhh!

Dion waves his sword and is slashed by Selik.

"Come on!"

"To that extent..."

But Dion's sword was easily taken by Selik's sword.

Plus Selik puts his strength into the sword and pushes Dion back.

"Wow!

"Dion!"

Dion's body blew up big.

It crossed our heads and fell straight to the ground.

"Interpretation, to this extent..."

"You..."

Selik watches as he laughs thinly.

I can't stand being done like this, either.

"Celia, soon your master will do the same. And think about it. That our sword moves are supreme..."

"Brother! Oh my..."

Selik's next target is like me.

Well, that's just fine.

"Celia, please Dion"

"Master!? No! Here..."

Celia stopped it because I put my hand on the knife.

But there's no way I can forgive Selik for this attitude on a boulder, either.

"Come. I'll pay you back."

"... I'm gonna stop you from saying that right now."

That's what I said, when I was about to pull the knife out.

"... stop"

"What!?

"Are you..."

Between me and Selik, a man stands. Not at all, I couldn't notice.

The man wears an iron mask on his tall, forged body. However, Selik's attitude had changed despite what could be described as its unusual appearance.

"Captain Zagil......"

"Selik, I can't impress you with a fight here..."

"Captain...?

Apparently, he's the captain of the Knights. Captain Four is Faraes, so this man would mean Captain Fifth.

"Are you a rookie from Squad Four? I'm sorry for the inconvenience."

"Oh, no..."

A man named Zagil turned his face here and said so.

That extremely calm attitude makes my spirit cold, too. I took my hand off the knife and changed my posture.

"But I can't impress you for trying to pull out a knife. You should always be cool with knights."

"Oh, excuse me..."

Captain Zagil speaks to me like that. Something like fighting, both success and defeat? Most of all, he had a stronger tone towards Selik, who belonged to his own squad.

"Captain Zagil... no matter how much you say, I don't want you talking about this problem"

"Selik......"

But Selik even gave Captain Zagil a bite.

"This is a problem with our pride."

"That's why you can't admit to fighting in this place as a knighthood."

Captain Zagil does not admit to fighting resolutely.

That would be natural as a captain of the Knights.

"... if you really want to fight, fight in the arena"

"Arena?

"If there's something between knights that you're not comfortable with, settle in the game."

Captain Zagil suggested we settle in the game.

Sure, then you won't be complained about fighting.

In addition, we should be able to make it clear whether or not he does not deserve it as Selik's mentor.

"... ok. That would be fine."

"Was it good in Slade? Do you mind, too?

"Yeah, that's okay"

Me and Selik agreed to play the game.

"Then the game is tomorrow. I'll set it up. We should come to each other in perfect condition."

And at Captain Zagil's suggestion, the game meant tomorrow.
