Chapter 193
197
The fies returned to the king’s capital, groping over the raids of Gerhus and his men.
The township I should have been used to was felt very nostalgic, even though it was only about two weeks away.
The first real battle I’ve ever experienced. I’ve followed the seniors and had about a skirmish with the rogues, but I’ve never had such a full-scale fight, an exchange of lives.
Everyone, I think it was just a miracle that we survived.
“Cooinu, are you okay…”
Raimier groans anxiously in the carriage.
Couinu had his arm severed deep in that battle. Injured enough to stop wearing a sword, the wish of all the apprentice knights was to have him return to the king’s capital with a speeding carriage one foot away.
“Yeah……”
Fee looked anxious, too.
Following Phee’s command, Couinu fought for us all.
If that injury made my sword untouchable – I would have done terrible things to Couinu, whose goal was to become the knight of the 18th Knights… Considering that, Phee’s expression also darkened.
“It’s okay. ‘Cause that’s him! Even if the doctor says he can’t do it, I’ll definitely try to cure it!
Slad said to break the heavy air of such a carriage.
“So you’re as strong as ever as an idiot, you look relaxed as usual, and you spill us in training! So, after the fight, I was worried about us, and I said,” Uh, guys, what’s wrong? Give me that look. ”
Slad’s words without any basis, but the wonder and the sight came to my mind of the Fees.
Fee chuckles unexpectedly.
“Yeah, well, maybe Cousin would be fine.”
Everyone’s expression softened a little.
“It’s okay, you’ll be cured if you take good care of yourself. I’m glad you got the right first aid over there.”
One leg sooner, Couinu, who was returning to the King’s Capital, was told so after being treated by a female doctor.
I was only in the Northeast vs. Swordsmanship game. Elizabetta that she was Mr. Carnegis’ lover. Couinu is relieved to hear it.
The reassuring reason, of course, is that now we can point to the knight again. But more than that, I felt like I didn’t have to worry about Heath or my people. During their time in the northern quarters, their companions became as important to Couinu as their goal of becoming fine knights.
As for Heath, it’s more than that…
Heath – I’m not sure what’s going on, but for some reason I’m in an apprentice knight dressed as a man, cheerful and a little in sync with a cooinu…… a lot of pretty girls. Couinu’s first love child.
Couinu, who left the treatment room, holds the fist of those who were well.
I couldn’t protect it. Such an important child. In the sword of the cooinu……
If Mr. Carnegis hadn’t come to help me like that, Heath and everyone would have died.
I became the best in the east quarters, I could be the top in the north quarters, and I’ve never lost since I became an apprentice knight. I thought we were getting closer to the strong knight we were targeting.
But on that occasion when it had to really help, Couinu couldn’t help everyone.
Couinu chewed his lips all the time and made one decision.
Meh, I made one decision.
Another week after the Fies came back to King’s Capital.
A small party was held in the dining room in the northern quarters.
“Congratulations on your discharge, Couinu!”
Congratulations to the cousin on her discharge.
I was in the hospital until yesterday because I took care of it and the injury healed faster.
With such a cousin back, the Fees are a big shag. Quickly, I decided to throw a party. Bring treats, bring home delicious street food from downtown, and party in secret juice.
The look on Fie’s face was also brighter when she was told that Couinu’s arm would be better.
“Thanks everyone”
In the main seat of the party, Couinu will happily thank you too.
“Sounds like it was tough… I could have helped if I was there too…”
Gollms said the expedition was different and he wasn’t on the spot.
“Ha-ha-ha, it’s a shame you didn’t see us work, Golmsu.”
Fully back in his usual shape, Phee looks down on Golms greatly.
Until information came in about Couinu’s injuries, you were depressed……, Golms almost said, but, well, I’m feeling better, so I decided to forgive him today.
“I’m glad Slad came home safe and sound too…”
As Geese looked at the slad, he said in a relieved voice.
“Oh my God, it’s just me, there’s a reason I can’t come back!
Slad protests the opinion.
Geese said with a sigh.
“I thought only one of you would go the wrong way when you run away…”
“Oh, my God. That!
“Well, Geese was worried too. I heard the news that we were attacked.”
It seems like it was only yesterday or so that Gollms and Geese returned because only the Fies returned early. From before that, the news that the apprentice knight was raided must have been telling, so it must have bothered me.
It gets dark when we talk too much about the raid, so Laemier decided to offer another topic.
Speaking of which, it’s almost a survival exercise.
Survival exercises are the training of knights who fight closer to actual battles than swordplay matches. Join a pair in the woods and fight in Battle Royale format. Unlike a sword game, it’s a battle with little rules, in action form. The weapons used are not just swords either.
The expedition kept me away from the topic for a moment, but it was approaching three months later as the next big event.
Fee was a little shy on the subject.
We haven’t finalized the pairing yet, but Fee publicly stated that he would work with Gollms. And that feeling hasn’t changed.
But I knew Couinu was very dissatisfied with that combination.
That cousin wasted a lot of time. It looks as solid as a doberman, but the contents are unusual for lazy little dog cousins.
Well, whatever they say, Fee is going to work with Gollms, but I feel the burden of getting him hurt, so it’s very painful to flame up here again.
“Yeah, we need to hang in there…”
But Couinu just said that with a sure look.
Gollms and sluds also look unexpected in that reaction. As much as that, it seemed like a shock to Couinu that Phee didn’t invite him.
They stroked their breasts down to see if they finally stomped off to some rather temperamental cousin.
“Speaking of which, who does Laemier work with?
Fee was supposed to work with Gollms, Cooinu with Percil, and Slad with Geese, but I hadn’t heard from Raimier’s opponent yet.
As for Ramier and his friendly slud, I was worried about the combination.
Lemier told me, “I’m fine, so you and Geese can work together,” and it’s a combination now.
“Oh, Kerio invited me.”
Raimier says happily.
“Heh, wow!
Kerio and I are one of the leading players in the east quarters. He is a strong man who won the entrance exam for the apprentice knight and passed unconditionally.
In the Northeast match, he served as the middle man in the east quarters, at which time he fought Laemier. I heard you play with me occasionally on that edge, but it was a surprise to Slad that a pair of exercises are starting to work together.
The matches played as enlistment exams for apprentice knights were divided into twelve groups, so there are the same number of winners.
It was customary for such winners to pair with each other in order to achieve good results in the survival exercise. In fact, the self-proclaimed genius of the east quarters, Lizil, and the loathsome aristocrat Luca, had been in the news that they had teamed up early.
I think Kerio, one of the winners as well, chose Laemier, who normally enlisted rather than the other winner, would be a testament to the fact that the two have a pretty close relationship.
Well, Golms and Cooinu, the winners in the north quarters, may not really feel that way because Golms has combined with his bad friend Heath and although he works with the winner Percil once and for all about Cooinu, he wants to work with Heath and is jealous of Golms.
Laemier is not out of company even in the northern quarters, but he also had a feminine personality and appearance, with parts that were a little floating. He also cared about it.
Sluds and Heath, Cousins and Gollums are the only ones who can be called close. So it’s good to have friends close to the other quarters, Slad thought.
In the meantime, Couinu also finally accepted the combination, and Laemier also joined forces with Kerio to put together a pair of cyber exercises.
With the survival exercise set on a new goal, apprenticeship knight life began again.
Under Hislo, the instructor of the northern quarters, the Fies undergo training.
“Heath’s in the mood.”
It was Phee who was visible in it and hanging in there.
As always, among the apprentice knights, they have the lowest physical and motor skills, but they do 10% more walking and muscle training than usual.
It looks like a small difference, but in pushing your body, 10% is pretty big, and since you have training after that, it’s pretty tough stuff.
“Don’t push it too hard.”
Raimier something worries me and I keep talking to him.
“Yeah, but it’s okay. I’m talking to Mr. Crowe, and I’m increasing it to the extent that I can’t help it. Because you can’t just snap your legs more than you can pair with Gollms.”
Fee returns it that way and continues with the increased training menu.
“I don’t care. I wish I had something with results.”
I hear such Phee’s words, and Gollms squeals.
As for Gollms, in working with Heath, I was going to convince him with the results that were. As a separate matter of whether Heath is strong or weak.
Heath, the Gollms know, is probably weak on the whole. But he was a guy with a strength he didn’t have. Even if that wasn’t the result of training or exercises, that was something I wish I knew.
I was surprised when they told me to form it, but now I don’t think it’s a bad idea with this pair.
But when Phee heard it, she glanced at Golms with a sharp glance.
“In order to do it, you’re gonna win, right? We’re going to win.”
That’s what I declared.
Golms felt the seriousness only a bad friend could understand in that expression, and he felt surprised. Then, I leak a bitter smile on that glued face.
I didn’t fool around with Heath’s goal. Nor did it feel reckless.
Either that or because I realized how pitiful I was. Winning, it’s certainly easy to make it a goal, but seriously trying to do that isn’t easy.
If I had worked with Couinu, that would have been the goal of the victory. It’s a specific goal, a serious idea to make it happen.
But if I pair up with someone else. Even if that’s not Heath……
Perhaps I would not have considered the victory as a real goal. For once, I might as well say it in the Big Mouse.
Competitors have cousins. Percil also pushed that cousin to defeat in one more step. There were many other mighty men lined up in the Gollms.
I’m going to win, no matter what you say, it’s a tough condition to seriously believe in that realization. I could have fought, got to the top there and lost, and convinced myself with that.
But Heath said and showed it to me.
Seriously, if you win… Even the northern quarters have the bottom line. Besides, from myself, while I make the strongest combination: Cooinu and Percil.
Have you fallen in love with its strength, for a moment?
“Hehe, right. I won’t do it. I’ll win.”
“Yeah.”
Golms reconsidered and put his temper back into himself again.
“Hehe, those guys, you’re so young . That, by the way, where’s Cooinu?
Slad, who had listened to such conversations nearby, noticed that there were usually no cousins who were supposed to be all the way by Heath.
“If you’re a cousin, you should be touring and self-trained…”
Geese answers.
Couinu, still bandaged in his arm, could not do the workout menu with everyone. So Hislo told me that I could participate in anything I could, and that I was free to act if I wanted to.
It could be Hislo’s decision because he’s a cousin trusted as an ace in a northern quarters.
Usually while sitting on a nearby rock and even looking at Heath, I was worried about the conversation, and I wanted to join a conversation with Feely in silence, and it was every action pattern of the cooinu that I stopped by, but I wasn’t even there today.
“I wonder where it was once”
Somehow I was curious about Slad squeaking.
But Geese slapped Slad in the head, who was running but stopped his leg.
“So don’t be shy, it’s not when people are worried…”
“Hino.”
Starred by Geese, Slad resumed running in tears.
Percil, who was watching the boys’ archery in the east quarters, realized that a rare guest had arrived.
Percil’s view of the archaeology of the boys in the quarters was something he had never done before.
But when he lost the Northeast vs. Swordsmanship match, Percil was greatly impressed when he saw the northern quarters hanging in there all together. From there, when I tried to give some advice to the apprentice knights in the east quarters, they started asking me to actively look at the archaeology from there. While I kept doing that, a lot of the boys asked me to do it, and from the new instructor who saw me do it, to the point where I was asked to help with my mentoring.
I just don’t think it’s anything bad. The days of coaching my colleagues and watching them grow were also fun and fulfilling.
The Guest was someone who affected me like that.
One of the apprentice knights of the northern quarters, now said to be the strongest of the generation, Couinu is also the opponent who beat himself in the Northeast Against Swordplay match.
Percil was told by his friend Heath to pair up a survival exercise. But I also knew Couinu, the one who paired them, wasn’t very motivated to ride. I’ve never been in contact with Pursil before from a cousin.
That’s why I never worked anything out of Percil’s.
Because if you don’t like it, even if they eliminate the pair, I thought that was fine. Lizil and Luca seem to be looking to win, but Percil herself was starting to value the process more than the result.
I now thought that would be a good experience, even if the pair were to be eliminated in the last minute and paired with the right person.
Such a cousin finally came to see himself.
I wonder what the hell it’s for. Have you come to offer to dissolve the pair? Or are you finally willing to accept it?
However, I could see from that look that Couinu himself came to this place in an unusual mood. The boys I was mentoring are overwhelmed.
I thought I’d say some thoughtful greetings, but before I did, Couinu opened his mouth.
They’re pretty chopped up.
But that requirement was unexpected even if I took it to Percil.
“Percil… I want you to train me…!
Percil returns the question to Cousin once he has repositioned his glasses.
“Work out? I’m sorry, but it sounds unreasonable. You’re stronger than me.”
It was a pure question. But you thought the cousin would say no, and I’ll start talking with a hurried look.
“Yes, I’ve been doing all the training my master taught me since I was a kid and I thought that was enough for myself…! But then, I know it’s not enough at all…! I need to be stronger…! Percil would know how to do that because he has strength that I don’t have…”
I followed the content, but the desperate desire to be stronger came through.
Percil recalled rumors that Cousins’ squad had been involved in intense fighting on an expedition. Maybe something happened then.
“Please……!
Cooinu bows his head and percil, please.
Percil raised his face and asked, looking straight into the eyes of the cousin who answered.
“I have one question… how do you want to be so strong?
Its sharp gaze is serious enough to intimidate the cooinu.
Couinu swallows his sagging and spit to be distracted by his eyes for a moment, silencing him. But as I was prepared, I said with my mouth open.
“I want to be able to protect my favorite child… my favorite child!!!
That was very loud for a cooinu.
It was faint but serious, straight, emanating from its mouth.
Hearing that, Percil quickly-fixes her glasses and squeals with a satisfying look like she was good at it.
“Right, love…”
That mouth makes me smile all the time.
“Okay, I don’t know how far I can go, but I’ll work with you as much as I can. Regards as a Partner in Survival Exercises”
To that answer, Couinu also thanked him with pleasure.
“Oh, oh…… thanks, Percil!
Percil went after he saw Cousin’s injury.
“I can’t seem to wave my sword right now, but you seem to be able to train physical. Your strength is its excellent physical ability. There is no harm in working out further. Consider a workout menu that won’t strain your arm first. I’m sorry, can you review what I just taught you?”
Percil apologized to the apprentice knight he was mentoring and went over there with Couinu.
The leftover apprentice knights drop off their backs.
Everybody was firmly in the arc, and they were listening to Couinu’s confession play.
The boys dye their cheeks red and whine.
“You liked being a cooinu…”
“Ahhh…”
There was a glowing, but enviable, incomprehensible air on the spot.
