CSWH Chapter 40: Guard Corps' Visit
”Muu~……”
If I reinforce that, then this will fall
If I reinforce this, then that will fall
I stared down the board, but a good move didn't come to mind
Rather, ive up”
As a result, I bravely resigned
”Elder brother, you've becoain”
”There is still a person that I can't beat though”
As he spoke while e naturally came to mind
For hi……just who in the world is he?
”Lately he hasn't been co around drinking again……”
”Who knows? He ht unexpectedly be busy ork”
”Work? ……honestly speaking, I can't i enthusiastically”
My only
That person seemed free like the wind ure of hiear, with ht be more unexpected sides to a person than can be seen on the surface You're the same, you know”
”? A things is different, you're si ferocious claithin yourselves”
I could only tilt my head at my brother's abstract words
”……-ah Thank you very o to sleep soon”
Glancing at the clock, I stood up froht”
”Yeah, night”
The next day, I startedbefore the sun rose
After fully co the menu that I had set for
……since I have absolutely no talent in battle tactics, I a it However, father has stated that I e for a noble girl
Apparently he is trying to hinder his daughter who tries to go out to tohenever she is free
Of course, knowing such things does appear to be a necessity as well
It can't be helped If I was going out with Kuroitsu-san and the other's from the army, or with the private soldiers fro out to town on my own, then they wouldn't knohat sort of incidents I'd butt my head into like before……is what the problem was
Well, I did have a previous offence, so I can't really refute that, but……
At any rate, I really do wonder what is with o study” without even preparing soh it isn't like I don't understand that it will be difficult to hire a tutor as long as I a in the Marquis House under the nauard'
On that note, I have no choice but to work hard in studying everything, from start to finish
Luckily, all noble mansions have some sort of library room
I can search up and learn the subjects from there, and if I still ultieable elder brother
Yesterday's board ga that occurred after I had hi
Lately, the daily routine has been to play one ga me
It was a bit hard to say it ly doubtful whether or not I was fit to be brother's opponent
For now, thanks to playing board gaotten a bit better at it That alone is proof of how ress, but as long as father does not invite a child tutor for girls, since father also has no clue regarding the manners of noble wo That alone was probablytoday's quota, I've beco obediently at ho out the , there were soldiers fro
”Shurei-san!”
My body throbbed fro, and in the end, I went down to the training grounds
”Ohh, Mel!”
When the training went on a s it
The Anderson Marquis House Guard Corps' sub-captain Shurei-san is soether with at the Anderson territory, so ere acquaintances
”It has been a while Did so happen?”
”No, I temporarily returned to the Anderson territory for a while Just basically confir the territory's public order”
The Anderson Marquis House's troops were robust warriors trained by father……in addition, they were elites, and thus maintenance of the public order within the Anderson House was left to them
They were, so to speak, security troops; or perhaps they could be described as people that perform similar duties to those of the troops found in the Capital
……because they were people who have endured father's training, they were probably used as a deterrent
The biggest reason for that was since father didn't require guards, they apparently didn't have much proper work On the other hand, it wasn't like the Anderson Marquis House, whoe thean
”……I see Hoas the territory?”
”Sauys that would try to do so to a territory that sits on Gazelle-saood”
”More i around quite a bit”
”Ra around, have I really? ……I don't have any particular recollection of that though……”
Lately, perhaps because father's eyes have been brighter, it has become more difficult to walk around town on my own
There were hardly any cases like before where I happened to encounter a case while in town
”What an a defeat reached my ears too, you know?”
”Ahh……”
”Come”
As I reflexively made a wry smile at Shurei-san's words, I was passed a practice sword
”Show me your current power Your power that surpassed Kuroitsu's”
Shurei-san's eyes held a belligerent light as he grinned widely
How to say, he loves to fight
As expected of someone personally trained by father
”Great face there”
When I was thinking such thoughts, Shurei-san laughed and said that
”……face?”
Tilting an to touchwas stuck to it When I did so, I realized that I was s without even realizing it
