63 – Strengthening discipline

Autumn has come.

Autumn leaves began to fall here and there in the mansion, and fall flowers, including cosmos, began to take their place in the garden.

The garden, managed directly by Eldrina, the owner of the mansion, had different flowers blooming each season. The garden, which never gets boring and shows new aspects, was one of Eldrina’s many points of pride.

and,

A new scene unfolded in the mansion’s training hall.

Even though the sun was still fully up in the training hall, there was no one swinging or training a sword.

Swinging a sword or running around carrying a piece of iron every day was something that was taken for granted, but their daily life changed little by little due to Victor visiting the mansion from time to time.

What has changed is the existence of play time.

Playtime was a somewhat unfamiliar word to Lucia and Siriel, who had been spending their free time sparring or taking walks.

Lucia and Siriel only know how to sword fight and wrestle, and they don’t even know how to play like children. That’s why they always did what Siron told them to do.

From games like tag to simple 2v2 war games. And today, Siron presented a slightly special game.

“therefore…”

Siron said while looking at the sharply forged dagger.

“Your father told you to be friends with me?”

The dagger, which was completely black, did not shine even in the sunlight falling from directly above.

Not long ago, the gift Hugo brought back from an expedition was said to be a dagger made from a by-product of a demonic beast killed during the expedition.

“…huh.”

Victor nodded. Victor’s face, dressed in black uniform, was a little pale and he was sweating profusely. The impression is that it looks a little shabby.

“To be exact, build a strong relationship… That’s what you said.”

“It doesn’t matter to me. “I’m a little worried about what your father will think when he sees this.”

However, Victor is a healthy boy who has never suffered from a minor illness. There are dozens of doctors working for the imperial family, and I have been consistently taking health and elixir medicines distributed throughout the empire since I was young.

“Gwae, wouldn’t it be okay? “Abama seems to have a very positive opinion of you…”

Victor swallowed his saliva and answered. It wasn’t because I was scared of the dagger Siron was holding, but because I was a little scared of the game we were going to play today.

Siron swung his dagger around and smiled.

“Let’s stop talking and get ready. Lucia, get ready too.”

“…ha.”

Siron spoke to Lucia with a solemn look, and Lucia sighed.

Siron Lucia Victor,

In front of the three, Siriel, wearing a white military uniform, rushed forward holding a long sword.

Siron shouted as he thrust his dagger into the jaw of Lucia, who was tied tightly with rope.

“hehehehe, you bastard! “Where are you coming from?”

Today’s play is role play.

The roles are as follows.

The role of the warrior Kylie is played by Siriel.

The demon is Shiron.

Lucia played the role of a princess captured by a demon, and Victor was his henchman.

Seeing Siron’s evil smile, Siriel shouted, making a serious face while her eyes sparkled.

“You evil demon! Now they’re even holding the princess hostage! Are you not satisfied with the lives of so many people?”

Siriel, who loved Kylie’s story, acted with great immersion.

She was so immersed in it that, despite the role-playing, the blue sword energy from the long sword she was holding flickered for a moment.

Siriel recited the line Siron had told her a moment ago with a serious face.

From noble mtl dot com

“I, Kylie, make a vow here. “I will plunge the holy sword into the demon’s heart and rescue the princess.”

“……Help me. “Hey, warrior.”

As Siriel spoke the designated line, Lucia, who was tied up with a rope, spoke the following line. Her face was so red it looked like it was going to explode at any moment.

Lucia wanted to die of shame because she was caught up in childish games.

But whether she was embarrassed or not, the play continued.

Viktor, who played the role of confidant number one, blocked Siriel’s path.

“hehehehe, hero. “If you want to pass through this place, defeat me first…”

Victor’s face was full of cold sweat as he spoke his prepared lines. This is because his future has been confirmed to be met with mistreatment by Siriel, who plays the role of a hero.

Of course, Siriel is also acting and may not show his sincerity, but having spent a lot of time hanging out with Prien’s children, he knew very well how monstrously strong a child Siriel was.

Viktor muttered softly to Siriel, asking her to hit him gently.

“Take it! Defeat the warrior regime!”

“Hi!”

Puck!

Siriel’s tight fist hit Viktor’s chest. A shrill moan escaped Viktor’s mouth.

No matter how much she steals her powers, Siriel is the daughter of a warrior family and the daughter of Hugo Prien.

It was too strong a fist for Viktor, who hadn’t trained at all.

Slurp-

As Siriel’s fist dug into his chest, Viktor fell to the floor clutching his chest. The saliva dripping from his mouth looked really painful.

However, whether or not Viktor fell was irrelevant to Chiron and Siriel.

When Viktor fell, Siron smiled like a villain and pointed his dagger at Siriel.

“Kylie, you b*tch… To defeat this person’s henchman with a single punch, wasn’t the title of hero just a facade?!”

“Stop talking loudly! “It’s your turn next.”

Siriel charged powerfully, pointing the tip of her long sword at Siron. The force was so strong that the ground she hit caved in.

“Continuous slashing of the hero!”

Siriel swung the blunt long sword at Siron several times. No matter how careful she was, a sword wind arose from the trajectory of the sword she swung.

“Ah!”

Siron felt the wind rushing towards her face, then stumbled and fell as if in response to her performance.

It was the moment when justice triumphed.

*

After a short play time.

The four of them ate refreshments while listening to Siriel’s feedback in a pavilion in a corner of the training hall.

“Lucia. So, can you say that she is a princess captured by a demon? Damn it! “You should have screamed!”

Perhaps not satisfied with Lucia’s boring performance, Siriel opened her eyes in an unsuitable way and glared at her red-haired cousin.

“…I’ll do that from next time.”

“Well, I hope you’ll be more careful from now on. “But Lucia is my friend, so I’ll leave it at this point.”

“Yes… thank you.”

Lucia nodded with narrow eyes.

I felt like my face was still bleeding because I felt like I was dying of embarrassment throughout the playtime.

‘If this happens, how can I reveal that I am Kylie? No matter how strong I became, I couldn’t reveal it because I was embarrassed.’

There has never been a time in my past life when I was as mentally tired as I am today. Even when I faced the one-horned Yuma, when I defeated the heat wave dragon Demodoras, and when I killed the Queen of the Deep Sea, it wasn’t so hard that I lost my mind.

‘Should I have just refused with the excuse that I was busy with training?’

Belated regrets came flooding back, but the time that had already passed cannot be turned back. All she could do was self-justification to maintain even a little of her pride, which had begun to crumble.

‘No, when I tried to refuse, Siriel’s eyes filled with tears. To a child who likes me this much… as an adult, I can do this much.’

Lucia remembered Siriel’s happy face.

Her face, immersed in the role of Kylie, was the most serious and passionate face I had ever seen.

Siriel was sincere about Kylie’s acting.

So sincere was the fact that when Siron brought up the hero role play as a game to do today, he squealed with excitement.

‘I wouldn’t have done this if Shiron hadn’t asked me to play this childish game in the first place. Wouldn’t it be nice if we played hide and seek like usual?’

As expected, all Lucia can do is self-justify.

Lucia let out a deep sigh and looked at the boy in front of her.

The culprit who made the prince froth at the mouth and almost died of shame. He was leisurely sipping black tea, unaware of Lucia’s feelings.

“…What are you looking at?”

Chiron, who was eating two cookies placed in front of her, felt the eyes on her and said to Lucia.

“What did you put on my face?”

“no. I didn’t bury anything.”

“Oh, no way.”

Shiron, with an expression that reminded him of something, quietly placed the last cookie in his hand on the plate.

“Okay? “You eat this.”

Siron spoke kindly to Lucia.

Lucia gave Siron a puzzled look.

“What happened, you idiot?”

“…Lucia. “But even though you’re my only brother, you’re being too harsh.”

Viktor, who was looking at the bickering siblings in turn, smiled innocently.

Because his chest was still numb, he couldn’t eat a single cookie from earlier. Lucia said, casting a pitiful look towards Victor.

“Victor, do you have any complaints?”

“Are you complaining?”

“You just passed out foaming at the mouth.”

“Well, even though I collapsed, I didn’t foam up!”

Victor got upset and stood up.

He couldn’t say anything to Siron, but he seemed to have lost his pretense, and was able to show this level of temper to Lucia and Siriel.

Since they were stronger than Siron, he expected them to have terrible personalities, but the only thing he experienced that was unusual was Siron.

Then,

Shiron, with a smile in his eyes, opened his mouth to Victor.

“More than that, Victor. “Don’t you think we’ve become closer friends now?”

“huh?”

“I think. I think we’ve become pretty close at this point. “To the point where I can call him my best friend.”

“Why are you doing this all of a sudden? “It’s creepy…”

Victor responded to Siron with a straight face. However, as if he couldn’t hide his gestures, he lowered his head and wiggled his fingers.

Siron, who accepted that action as a sign of positivity, smiled brightly and opened his mouth.

“Can you invite me to your house?”

“…my house?”

“Because you are the only one who comes here. I feel like I’m losing something. And as a close friend, I should also say hello to my friend’s father.”

This is cutie Siriel.
