171 19. The New Brave and Princess Treasure ④ (1/2)

First day of training

I was so exhausted that I couldn't even hold my sword and fell to the floor.

'Let's call it a day. Thanks for your help.

”Ha ha ha ha. Oh, thank you very much.

I didn't have the strength to get up, so I felt sorry, but I rolled over and replied.

''Make sure you take care of your injuries, okay?

Yes. Okay.

”That was pretty good for a first day. Let's keep up the good work. I'll see you tomorrow.

With that, Aaron walked out of the training grounds.

'Ugh ...... my body hurts all over.'

I didn't expect to have to do a striking match with a sword from day one: ...... No, I was only getting hit one way, so I wouldn't call it a striking match.

There was no time to teach the basics thoroughly and to teach my body that it would hurt if it didn't attack me back, so from day one I was beaten to a pulp.

Because of this, I was able to learn to attack my opponent with a simulated sword.

It's a good idea to start tomorrow if you have to suffer through the pain so much.　I don't think that's a good idea.

Honestly, I'm afraid for my life!

Huh, I'm too lazy to get up. I think I'm just going to sleep here: ......

'You'll catch a cold if you do that, won't you?　Plus, we need to get those injuries fixed.

'Isn't that right ...... hmm?　I mean, why is Elaine here?

I turned toward the voice and saw Hélène standing near the entrance with her arms crossed.

'Can't I stay?'

Yeah, that's not what I meant. ......

Is that it?　You came to laugh at me after I got my ass kicked?

Just as I was thinking that, Hélène walked towards me.

Okay. Then let me see your scars.

'What?　No, I don't know what ”then” means. It's no fun to look at a scar, okay?

And I didn't want Elaine to see me so covered in scars.

I lay face down to hide the wound from Elaine.

Come on. Just turn around.

My tattered resistance was futile, and my bruised face was seen by Elaine.

'Huh, I wonder if Aaron doesn't know how to take it easy?　Well then, let's start with your face.

Treatment?　Does Elaine make allowances for you?

But then Elaine gently touched my face.

”Itta!

You're a man after all.

No, no, man, I know what hurts!　I was about to protest when a light went off from Elaine's hand that was touching me.

What?　I'm so bright!

'What are you doing ...... eh?　The pain in my face has gone down. ......

Holy magic. In addition to summoning magic, I can also do holy magic. I'm not so good at it, but I can fix bruises and minor cuts.

Ah, magic .

Characters that can heal wounds are common in games and stuff, but wouldn't it be a hell of a cheat if they were in real life?

Because all that pain is gone in an instant.

...... Hélène is awesome.

Of course. Who do you think I am?　The next queen.

”Okay, okay. It's great. My queen.

Jeez, it's too soon to call me ma'am.

An embarrassed Hélène said and bashed her bruised back!　I slapped him.

'Itte~!

You've got to be kidding me!

Oh, I'm sorry. I'll fix you up.

Then Elaine was finished and I was standing up, checking myself out.

”Thank God. Thanks for the treatment.

You're welcome. How about a little gratitude?

”Yes, yes. I'm grateful. I can't believe Hélène came all the way down here to treat my wounds. Hélène is so much nicer than I thought she would be.

You've always only gone that cold: .......

Oh, is this Elaine's plan?

He makes me practice in a serious manner and takes care of me gently so that I don't get tired of practicing.

Then, no matter how hard I practice, I'm going to keep practicing and do my best.

d*mn! ...... The princess certainly knows how to tame people.

Yeah?　I know!　Hmmm, I'm such a sweetheart.

Yeah?

Huh?　Seeing Elaine so happy, I feel differently about it .

Ha!　It's all part of the mission!　Don't be fooled. This is just an act to get me to practice hard!

d*mn ...... but it's too late.

My mind is ready to start practicing tomorrow.

My body hates it so much. .......

”Mmm-hmm. How's that?　She looked at me and said, ”Oh, sister. You're in a place like this.

In the midst of my body being defeated in my mind, Hélène was trying to talk to me about something and a girl who looked like Hélène walked in to interrupt her .

'Leeds ...... why are you here?'
