98 – f*ck you.

Ferris grabbed the sheath around his waist.

She looked at Alan Ludwig in front of her eyes, preparing to pull out with her right hand at any time.

To be honest, I didn’t recognize who he was at first.

He’s grown quite a bit, and above all, he has long, deep scars on his face.

Nevertheless, the smile on her lips is the same as before.

“…Alan, what are you doing?”

“What are you doing?”

“Are you asking because you really don’t know? You’re a candidate now, but you attacked a kingdom knight.”

At that, Alan nodded his head as if he understood, and then put on a very sorry expression.

“I’m really sorry about that, but from my point of view, it’s difficult to talk to him when he’s with you, isn’t it?”

“That’s right, you’re exiled from the kingdom.”

“Yeah, so I just made sure you can talk without any worries.”

At that, Ferris clicked his tongue inwardly.

An attitude of thinking that if it were you, you would agree to a conversation.

As expected, nothing has changed about this man.

He is a knight of this kingdom even though he is a candidate himself.

I have no intention of turning a blind eye to the outcast.

However, since he was confronting them right in front of his eyes, he could understand it well.

On his own, he could never beat Alan Ludwig.

I have already cut off the string with the rescue request spell.

If something goes wrong, it is a magical tool that informs the Knights Headquarters of its location when disconnected.

So, it was good news for Ferris that Alan wanted to talk.

Keep the conversation going, passing the time.

“…What the hell are you trying to say? By doing this…”

“No big deal, I just want to hear what happened while I was away.”

“…I was just taking normal academy classes, nothing special.”

This is a surprisingly common question.

I thought that there must be some ulterior motive to come in contact while committing such a big thing.

“Aria?”

“She’s working for her hometown, the Chamber of Commerce. She won’t be on the royal road right now.”

“I see…Then…”

So while Alan was attending the academy, he continued to talk about the names and current status of those he was close with.

There was no sign of reinforcements yet.

Feeling a little nervous, Ferris continued the conversation.

“…Then, what is Riel doing now?”

Gee, that story came out.

This is probably the most important piece of information for Riel Ignis and Alan Ludwig.

Of course, Ferris knew about Riel’s current situation.

She is still sending letters and interacting with each other these days, so it’s natural.

But since she had Ferris as her friend, she had no intention of telling Alan the story of her Riel.

Ferris saw what Alan had done to Riel right in front of her eyes.

“…What are you going to do with her knowing that she’s about her?”

“Of course we should meet.”

“Are you sane? Are you aware of what you did to Riel?”

On the subject of her trying to assault her.

The subject of pulling out her sword and trying to attack her from behind.

At the same time, Ferris couldn’t understand Alan who had the audacity to say he would meet Riel.

“Please wake up, Riel doesn’t care about you. No, he hates you.”

As she shared her academy life with Riel, Ferris was able to know something about her Riel.

And, she knows how much Riel hates and loathes Alan Ludwig.

So, she wanted to tell Alan, who was still chasing Riel, about her reality.

…There is no sign of reinforcements yet.

“I know.”

“Yes?”

“I now know that Riel hates me.”

Alan’s words made Ferris think.

Well, if you say you don’t know even though you’ve been denied face to face that much, it’s already an escape from reality.

“Then…Then leave Riel alone! I know she hates it, but why the hell…”

“It doesn’t matter anyway.”

“…Yes?”

Alan smiled broadly.

“It doesn’t matter if Riel likes me or not.”

“That…What does that mean?”

“Find Riel and make it mine. Riel’s will doesn’t matter anymore.”

At those words, Ferris involuntarily backtracked.

Ferris realized she was wrong.

This man, Alan Ludwig, has not changed at all.

It has changed. And that too in an incredibly worst way.

The marriage talk with the Marquis of Gliaes ended with a postponement.

Amid, who fainted after her sparring, properly confessed her feelings to her Kino after she woke up.

To be honest, the sight was so hot that I wanted to clench my fist and run to it.

After hearing the confession, Kino’s face turned red and looked like he was about to faint.

In the end, Kino came to his senses and said this.

“Chi…Can’t we start with friends?”

Well, actually, this must be a compromise.

In the first place, Amid has been watching Kino for a long time, but Kino is almost like seeing Amid for the first time.

So, let’s start by getting familiar with her face this time and being friends.

It’s up to Amid to deepen their relationship.

With the present I received from the Marquis of Gliaes in my hand, I left the Marquis’ mansion.

The Marquis said it was a return for showing great swordsmanship.

What the Marquis gave me is a fairly well-made longsword.

As befits a master of martial arts, the Marquis family possessed numerous weapons.

“Kino, are you okay?”

“Uh…Yes, I’m fine. I was a little surprised.”

I’m not a bit surprised.

I was really worried that I would jump backwards and lose my mind.

“Hmm, there’s still some time left before the train to go back…Would you like to take me to the dormitory?”

“Uhhhhh, I’ve decided to join my friend.”

Is that so?

Come to think of it, Kino said he was dating Lady Vaniela and several of her friends.

“Oh, there it is!”

When I looked in the direction Kino was pointing at, I saw three girls in academy uniforms.

“…Ugh?”

No, that…It’s true that he’s wearing a uniform.

Why are you wearing bandages over your uniform, or a cape, or gauntlets decorated like iron prostheses…?

“Kino?”

Looking at her Kino, Kino took out from her arms and put her eyepatch on her face.

“Has it grown…?”

After sending Kino and her friends away, we headed for the station with a slightly weathered mind.

It was because I had nothing to do, and I thought it would be better to go to the station and wait.

But there, I found some suspicious people.

Old armor, white hood.

And the pattern of the Church of the World Tree engraved on the arm.

It’s the first time I’ve seen it, but the only knight wearing armor with the pattern of the World Tree Church is a paladin.

I couldn’t figure out why there were paladins in the capital.

Well, if you’re walking the royal capital proudly, it’s not like you sneaked in like Alma’s leader at the time, it’s fine.

The moment you think so and try to get past them.

“Damn it, where the hell did Alan go?”

“…They’ve been quiet lately, so I caught my guard and did something like this.”

The name from that conversation, Alan.

Of course, the name Alan itself is a very common name.

However, a feeling of uneasiness overtook me.

“Now, I want you to tell me, Ferris.”

“With that said, do you really think I’m going to teach you?”

It was difficult to take any more time.

This person in front of me is crazy. He can’t be left alone.

I believed that reinforcements would come, and I had no choice but to desperately block them.

Ferris drew her sword, took her stance, and confronted Alan.

“I’m so sorry, Ferris.”

Alan also drew his sword.

The sword looks very worn out, but the pressure felt from it is not old at all.

From nob le mt l dot com

Kaang!!

“Keugh…!”

Somehow, I was able to follow the movement.

I defied Alan’s attack with my own sword, but it was heavy.

Feris’ body naturally took two or two steps back from the heavy attack.

Alan’s mouth still had a relaxed smile on it.

It’s been awhile since I felt creepy from Alan, who was smiling casually while attacking himself.

Ferris was desperately trying to block the attack coming back to her, backing away from her.

Chack!!

“Heuk!!”

However, even that gradually reached its limit.

Alan’s sword grazed Ferris’ shoulder.

From her slight cut on her shoulder, her blood flowed and smeared on her clothes.

“……”

Besides, there is a wall behind you.

She can’t back down anymore.

That means, now, you have to withstand 100% of the power of Alan’s sword.

“Ferris, I want you to calmly tell me where Riel is.”

“…f*ck it, Alan.”

At Ferris’s words, the smile on Alan’s lips disappeared.

“Okay, then I’ll play with you until you feel like talking.”

Alan’s sword was raised.

Ferris raised her sword, thinking of the shock that would come upon her, and involuntarily closed her eyes tightly.

From nob le mt l dot com

Kang!!

…The shock did not come.

Ferris looked up cautiously.

The back of the black-haired man seemed to be visible.

“I came running just in case, but I didn’t know you guys would really be here.”

“You… You…!”

Alan’s voice full of anger, along with the cold voice of a man who seems to be looking down on his opponent.

Ferris’s voice used to harbor some of her fears while attending her academy, but now she felt a sense of relief.

At the same time as her rising sense of relief, Ferris lost her sanity.
