63-63 Daughter of the Six Holys (1/2)

”──── father-in-law. May I have a word?

Sitting at his custom-made desk, wearing silver-rimmed glasses and working, someone quietly walked into Dundargu's room.

At the sound of the person's voice, Dundargues looked up from the papers he was looking through and turned around.

”Oh, Inez. What's up, what time is it?

...... I hope Rollo's training is going well.

I'm sorry I've left you in charge since then. I know it's a little late for that, but I just thought I'd ask.

You mean Rollo?

Yes, ...... he's doing amazingly well.

When you first brought her in, she looked like a weak, timid child, and I thought about what to do. ...... Now, all of the Six Saints are motivated. I'm even having a little fun teaching them. There's nothing to worry about.

”...... I see. I'm relieved to hear that.

It's a good thing to ask her directly, but ...... she's always working really hard on something until late at night, and I feel bad interrupting her.

I think you're being a little too cautious, don't you?

I'm sure you're not the only one.　Inez.

It's a good idea to take a look at the actual information on the web, as well as the information on the internet.

”...... Is that right?

In the end, I just took the kid to everyone in the [Six Saints]. ...... I don't think I've done anything since then. I'm not sure what to do with it.

No, I think that's a big improvement from what you've been doing. You've never shown much interest in other people, have you?　Well, maybe you didn't have to.

...... Yeah, I guess so.

But it doesn't mean that you were never interested in others. It's not that I wasn't interested in other people, Ines thought, it's just that I didn't know how to measure the right distance between me and other people and ended up not saying anything every time.

She had gotten used to talking to people since she started her job, but she still didn't know what to say when it came to personal matters.

Inez thought of this as her own shortcoming.

...... So, how are things going over there?

I heard that you and Mr. Linneburg are currently training together. I heard that you and Master Linneburg are training together right now.

”Oh, yes, I'm training with him.

...... Mr. Linneburg is amazing.

It seems that the other day he caught something during the defeat of the [Gray Ghost], and his growth in the last few days has been remarkable.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for and what you need to do to get it.

In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site.

”──── Hey, Ines. Are you okay after what happened?

......What do you mean, since?

That thing you did the other day, the one where you wiped out the fort on the border of the Empire in a matter of seconds.

...... Was that a bad idea?

Inez knotted her loose lips and turned her head.

I'm not blaming you for anything.

It was a good thing for both of our countries. Of course, as a knight of the kingdom, you deserve to be praised. And I personally feel good about it.

...... I see.

But you know what?

I'm thinking that maybe it was (・・・・・・・) not a good thing for you.

I'm not even going to lecture you on the fact that I'm your guardian.

I'm not going to lecture you because I'm your guardian, but I'm a little worried about ──── you know.

Dundalk scratched his head as he shrunk his large body.

”...... Worried?

Yeah. In the event that you have any questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can call us at our own website. I'm not sure what to do with it.

”No, that's not true.

My father-in-law is my goal, and I'm still ────.

I appreciate you saying that, but... You should just admit it. You're already stronger than us. If you wanted to, you could destroy a country with one cleave (・・・・・・・・).

...... You know that, don't you?

It's a great way to make sure you're getting the most out of your money.

Inez looked at Dundalk silently with a slightly puzzled expression on her face, ”...... and I'm pretty sure I'm weak.

That's about it. It is mostly because of Thane that I have been given the nickname ”Immortal”, you know?　I'm sure you'll be able to understand that I'm not the only one who has a problem with this. It doesn't matter if you've got a broken arm or a hole in your stomach, he'll have you back to normal in no time. He's scarier than the devil. Sig and Mianne are completely like a wall. .......

I survived and became a great man because I had those crazy people around me. I'm not sure what to make of it.

...... Actually, I've never held a shield in my life, you know?

I've never had a shield, and when I told the king I had doubts, he said, ”You're a shield yourself.

It's a terrible story, don't you think?　It's too much.

Dundargues laughed and shook his huge body.

But not you, ────.

Yours is a true ...... power.

You have a tremendous amount of power from the start that anyone would envy.

No matter what kind of enemy comes your way, if you fight (・・・・・・) normally, you will not be defeated.

To put it bluntly, you're invincible.

But that's not what I'm worried about.

”...... Something else?

You're strong.

But no matter how strong you are, that doesn't mean your heart is too, right?

It's a little too ──── kind.

You hurt some people with that thing.

I'm sure you're not the only one.

It's ────.

Inez choked on her words.

When I destroyed the fortress, I let my anger get the better of me and swung the Sword of Light.

I think it was necessary to secure the way back.

However, because of this, several Imperial soldiers were caught in the collapse and wandered between life and death.

Even though they were soldiers of an enemy nation at war, I am not without feelings about it.

No, it's okay, it's okay. Basically.

If you don't feel anything about it, then you're not doing your job. It may sound like a contradiction, but you're the reason we can trust you with our work.

I'm not sure what to make of it.　In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site.　You've done all you can, and there's no need to worry about it.
