Chapter 95
Shogun knights, knights and knights.
“Ahhh… Dear Pride, Ai was as beautiful as ever…
“I drink too much because of nervousness, Alan. So I told you to keep it on track.
“Captain Alan, may I borrow your own shoulder, if you please? Because I’m going back to the practice area as well as my predecessors.
Knight captain Alan, Column, and knight Eric had finished a party hosted by Chancellor Gilbert and were walking the boulevard side by side. Roderick Knights captain and knight Arthur broke up on the way home this evening, and there’s no one on the middle of the night boulevard but three knights now.
“Dear Pride… have you remembered my name…
“You sound too loud. Even if I’m impressed with that, there’s no way I can get a name or anything in my head.
The column relentlessly truncates Alan leaking his words as he gasps and scratches his short brown golden hair. “No, I’m really glad I won the party invitation today,” Alan muttered so I wouldn’t even get that word in my ear.
“Ha ha… I think so myself…. I wondered what would happen when Captain Alan suggested a winning battle with his bare hands.
Shaking his chestnut short hair, Eric, who looks somewhat softer than the other two, turns Alan’s arm around his shoulder to support him. He shook his head when the column shouted, “So you won. You too.”
“No, that was just really lucky… I could say I would have won confidently if it had included swords and snipers…. Ha.
“Then you can’t be sure I win in the invitee’s captainship frame. Unlike Eric and Column, who excel at overall strength, I’m only an arm.
“Is that still it? I can’t even put it in the wind of a knight, such as forcibly suggesting a superior battle for myself.
Alan turns to the words of the column. The captain’s history is definitely a longer elite column than Alan’s, but I’m not reluctant because they both joined the Knight Squad at the same time. The column dared Alan to try to sigh as he paid off his red-haired mixed forehead with his fingertips.
“Even those columns were desperate to take away today’s invitation! Not even during the party I’ll be watching like I’m gonna lick around about Master Pride.
“Become… don’t mislead me! I just couldn’t help but notice…”
“But you got on my suggestion, and you got to meet Lord Pride, too, right?
Alan’s words had a panicking column about “doing bad things to people,” but at the end he muttered in a small voice, “Well…”
“… hey, why is Eric admiring Lord Pride?
Because of the drunkenness, the liquor yotai story continues. Eric, who was told the story, raised his voice, “Eh,” but stayed still, Alan, and the column waited for a response, leaving him with no choice but to open his mouth.
“I was… a recruit at the time. If Lord Pride hadn’t been here on one of the cliffs two years ago, he would surely have been drunk to death by rubble. So I am very grateful to Master Pride…. and…
Even now, I remember.
At the time, recruits… no, Roderick Knights Commander, who is still a recruit and a longing of the knights. At that time, I was right next to the Knights Commander when the Great Rock came down. However, he did his best to protect himself without hesitating to drive. I realized that I was injured and the Knights captain, who was right beside me, couldn’t move with his legs caught in a rock. No one blamed themselves, but if I could have responded more quickly on that occasion, the Knights Commander might not have been put in such a predicament.
After that, it was just hell.
Don’t report to HQ, just think about what you can carry until the advance troops arrive now, and leave me if ever. I heard the words and felt the blood all over my body draw away.
I heard the prediction of the cliff collapse and had to leave one knight captain behind. Recruits like myself will withdraw, and kill the Knights captain, etc.
And the cliff collapse began, despairing of everything. It wasn’t just me, everyone in the recruit didn’t even have a voice in front of a crumbling cliff. When the collapse subsided and the Knights Squad who came to support them wanted to show them where the Knights Commander was, they volunteered best. I thought it was my role.
“The Knights’ captain, unable to move in the Great Rock, is alone in stopping to miss us…”
I still remember the feeling of helplessness then.
When the Knights chief showed up safely, he collapsed on the spot of the shock less often. How saving it would have been for the Knights Commander to be safe. He said he could only protect himself from the Great Rock, but Lord Pride jumped out on his own and put himself in danger to save the Knights Commander.
That is why I continued immediately thereafter, even when Lieutenant Clark conveyed his gratitude in subsequent talks. I exposed to Lord Pride at once the thoughts and gratitude that I held in my chest until that time.
“This time I was ashamed to be saved by Her Royal Highness the First Princess……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Ever since, I don’t know that respect, admiration, or gratitude for Lord Pride will always remain. Like that one day. I kept hoping and encouraging that, and was able to pass the next year’s main team exam as well.
“I think Lord Pride is a very respectable man…. and she’s cute.
When Eric said as he felt his face unwittingly burst, Alan and Column looked back at Eric with tremendous momentum.
“I’m out. What is it? It’s a common concept between the recruits and the knights who rushed to the scene for backup.”
“Master Pride is indeed admirable, but from the definition of cute, I wonder if your sister, Master Tiara, would apply.”
Alan’s screaming defeats and columns also abhors his voice. But Eric laughed and said, “No, she’s cute. You may be rude to Her Royal Highness the Princess of One Country,” he replied.
Only knights and recruits who were still young after the fall of the cliff knew that Pride was held by the Knights Commander and disturbed his face by turning bright red when he could see under the dress.
“Ohhhhhhh… I wish I was there for you, not HQ then…”
“And now I can’t see you standing like a pride saying you’ll never forget.
“Oh, that’s troublesome.”
Alan responds instantly to the words in the column.
“Oh, Captain Alan was watching the rumored pride stand. Again, is that why you admire it?
Alan nodded forcefully at Eric’s words.
“That’s right.” I think you were just eleven years old. Yet that stand-up behavior! When I was eleven, all I could do was train to join the Knights. ”
I was surprised by the first Lord Pride to take the sword. What’s the princess doing well? I also wondered if you were licking the battle. But Master Pride, who appeared at the scene, overwhelmed the assailants’ men with his little body. Can I not respect that man who was even good at sniping, swords and body surgery as a knight? If I were the same age, I would never be able to move like that. Scared, frightened, I’m sure you couldn’t even move. But at the time, only the 11-year-old First Princess fought in front of her. Save the Knight Commander without being frightened at all, just for that. Above all, the overwhelming battle was pitiful and vivid, and it made me feel attractive to start with a “woman” who had never been interested in all her workouts.
When Lord Pride came to return his uniform to the Knights Commander later on, he named him without suppressing his feelings. I’ve never spoken to a woman from myself before.
“Dear Pride, my name is Alan…”
At least I want to get into that guy’s sight.
Soon afterwards, the column yelled at me that I was horrible, but I was so obsessed with Lord Pride that I didn’t care if it was disrespectful or graphic.
“I don’t even know if you’re interested in a woman other than Master Pride, who’s beautiful and pathetic on top of her outfit!
Alan, who opens his hands and looks up to heaven and screams, accidentally fell back as he left his hand from Eric. Eric grabs his arm in a hurry and supports him.
“Hum… sounds like you’re a workout idiot.
“Column! What about you like that? I hated royalty before I admired Lord Pride. You…”
“I didn’t say I didn’t like it. I just said I wasn’t interested! What if people ask?”
You want me to be punished for disrespect! and angrily the column slapped Alan on the head. I get angry through a drunk laughing at me saying bad bad bad bad.
“… it’s not uncommon to be like me.
Just because you become a knight doesn’t mean everyone is royal supremacy. I swear allegiance to the royal family, but it varies by knight as to why I chose that path. There are many other things besides those who want to fight for the royalty, those who want to do it for their country and their people, and those who yearn for knights’ swords and ways of life, like titles and honors, money and life, and Alan. Everyone wants a knight’s way for what’s important to them.
… To me, I was the only one who was proud to be a knight. I don’t care about royalty ratings, I’ve only honed myself to climb even higher as a knight. Even when the Knights Commander and Deputy Commander first participated in the Birthday Festival of Dear Tiara, which inspired me to review my appreciation of Dear Pride, I did not feel very much for myself. Even when I welcomed Master Pride and Master Steele with the Deputy Commander instead of the Knights Commander, who was absent for the joint exercise of the recruits, there was no fine dust such as sincere respect. No matter how much you understand a knight, it’s out of the question at a time when you’re hearing it from a teacher or deputy chief. Interpretation, royalty but just an employer. I do not recognize each of us individually, but only as one consolidation: the Knights. I didn’t despise it per se. I just don’t deserve to have expectations or interest in such an employer… that was all.
I see the bravery of Lord Pride, until then.
For our sake, I encouraged the cooperation of the royal and even more right-hand man, Lady Style, who singled out and saved the Cavaliers to save them.
And… it’s that meeting.
He proclaimed each of us an important being, and he was shouted that he would not tolerate one useless death either. And the knight’s pride, his life, his greatness, he understood everything.
Please acknowledge each and every knight.
The queen, the king, the queen, the regent, the prime minister… received many words so far from the upper members of the castle, as well as speeches to raise morale, but this was the first time Lord Pride had shook my heart at that time. It seemed to me that if I were you, I could dedicate myself as a knight. Since that day I have sworn allegiance to one person in my heart, Her Highness the First Princess of Pride.
“… that Lord Pride is a wonderful man as a royalty, and that he is worthy to swear allegiance as a knight… I just thought so.
Alan murmured “I’d love to” on the column answering that clumsily.
“It’s not uncommon… and all of us, among the knights, it’s not uncommon as a reason to respect Lord Pride.
Column to Eric, who talks bitterly, and Alan both agreed, “Right.”
Everyone in the Knights admires Lord Pride. That is a well-known fact to all. People had their own reasons, but most admired them for the same reasons they did.
“Well, Captain Roderick and Arthur are distinct.
“Uh… well, the Knights chief is Arthur anyway.
“Because I’m Arthur.
Alan, Eric depressed the gavel on the column’s words. As far as Eric was concerned, there was still a mix of bitter smiles.
The Knights Commander deserves it. Everyone who saw the meeting that day understands it.
And Arthur.
He was the fruitful son of the Knights Commander, a recruit at the youngest fourteen years of age, and joined the army the following year with unusual speed and proven strength, until two years ago, he said he was going to be a farmer in person. But now everyone is the youngest squad knight to recognize its strength. And everyone who has been a knight since that time, including the three of us here, understands that the trigger is nothing more than the presence of Lord Pride.
“Arthur, unlike us, has changed his life.
“I envy you. I can’t believe he’s such a pride.
“Honestly, you’re different from your weak appearance two years ago.
“Oh, did Captain Column talk to Arthur two years ago?
To the words of the column, Eric asks, as I recall. Alan said softly, “Oh, hey, right?,” he continued with the column and threw the words.
“I’m not very involved. Arthur probably doesn’t remember me either…. Nothing, I don’t even need to recall.
Really, it’s not a big deal. After the fall of the cliff, he was convinced of his father’s death during the Knights Captain search, and took him outside, shelled out. I still didn’t want the boy’s him to see the wreckage in his body. Then, after confirming the safety of the Knights Commander, he brought them back to the Ops conference room. That’s all there is to it.
“Mr. Beresford… your father…”
Arthur’s dead eyes at that time and how he relieved and cried when he found out that the Knights Commander was alive are still burning in his eyes. I was thirteen at the time, but it was like a younger child, a barking cry to heaven.
… I thought again then that knights should be there to reach out to these people.
“No way… I never dreamed that boy would be a Knights Squad in two years.
The voice of the column telling the sigh mix sounded heartless or happy to Alan and Eric, contrary to that.
“… besides, I’m also close to Lord Style, Lord Pride’s younger brother.
Alan and Eric looked and laughed at the words of the column they continued to say in order to change the subject.
“Is Arthur going to hide it? That I am auditioning with Master Steele.
I dare no one to say it. and Alan laughs heavily at Eric who goes on.
“You’re just not telling me because you’re talking about him, are you? Mostly, we were all there two years ago when Lady Steele asked me to be his archdeacon.
“I guess the rest time is still unchanged and archaic, in view of the fact that it gives me a place to go.
The two of them nodded yeah to the column’s guess.
“So come on, I think Arthur has been face-to-face with Lord Pride and Tiara for absolutely two years! Not bad, huh?
When Alan looked up to heaven with a drunken, bright red face, Eric forgived him small, well.
“Master Stayle had come to Arthur’s room for the night before. I couldn’t get to the content, but it was full of incandescent inside.
“Uh, I heard that from my own place, too. Because one is empty and it’s in the next room. I didn’t dare ask what it was about, but at first I thought things were so loud and even beating each other up.
“Arthur’s guy, he was coming to my room to apologize after he was done, right? I only knew enough to be making a scene with someone. It’s just… ‘I disturbed you by myself’ is impossible, isn’t it? I don’t care what you think. You weren’t talking alone.”
“You found out…
“Why is that the only place with a sweet claw, Arthur?
Eric laughed bitterly at Alan, who replied, “Right.”
“Well… because Arthur has been around since he joined the army. Straight and poorly lied. I don’t know how much I admire Lord Pride… anymore.
Alan, in what Eric said that included, the column said, “Hmm?,” he turned his face.
“I used to drink in the knights of the first and second year of my regiment, but that’s how we all said what Lord Pride admires.
He remembered that time, and he kept talking as Eric bit off his laugh.
“Arthur, I was very drunk then. I probably don’t remember him anymore, but that’s what he said at the time.
What the hell? Interestingly enough, when Column and Alan wait for the next word, Eric breathes in loudly once and says it all at once as he pukes out.
“He said he was a man who was dressed up, great, beautiful, poor, well-dressed, smiling, cute, merciful, understanding about the knight, noble, proud, strong, and all combined on top of that, and yet he saved and changed his whole life at that time, and he wanted to respect and protect everything about that man that matters.
“Ugh… wow…
“That’s enthusiastic. Besides, didn’t I tell you twice just to look good now?
Just asking, Alan, my face gets hot to the column. “Everybody, it was a big buzz,” Eric said laughingly. “Eric … don’t ever tell him that in person, okay? He’s gonna die of embarrassment. Absolutely.
“But Arthur, if you drink too much, it’s like that every time, right? Honestly, or is it deredere?
In response to Alan’s words, Eric laughed at one person for remembering something again.
Finally, as Alan shrugged, “Next time, I’ll ask these three out for a drink…” the column, Eric, just returned a voice of consent.
The three knights, walking home with ease, do not yet know that as soon as they arrive at the Knights’ Exercise Ground after this, they will soon be blamed for a sigh of breath by the knights who missed qualifying for this party of Chancellor Gilbert.
