Vol Chapter 38 (1/2)

Ergnade guided us to our rooms, and as soon as he carefully closed the door behind him and exited, Claudia couldn’t contain her excitement anymore and jumped on top of a bed

“Wah!?”

At Claudia’s sudden, eccentric action, both of the woe jumped It was too sudden for them

Claudia buried her face in the sheets, rolled around, and wrinkled the sheets Stop, you’re going to make a mess of my bed……

“Ahh…… Being a knight, it’s so dignified and beautiful!”

With her face still buried in the bed, Claudia made such a comment I was ae feeling She really likes the idea of being a knight way too much

“……You two, it seeht of this one will be yours for tonight, so please stay there”

“Y, yes”

I don’t knohether I should say the tomen were amazed or frozen solid, but I ordered thehed deeply as I was now left alone with Claudia

“Claudia-dono, your spear fell over”

“What!?”

Claudia, who seems to have returned to her senses, raised her face At the same time, she saw her favorite spear that had fallen down onto the floor, then she saw ot off the bed, realizing the way she had been acting

“S, sorry……”

“Please fix the sheets properly”

As I sat down on a chair in front of the desk by the , I sighed again as I was tired, and stretched As expected, riding a horse for three days straight to get here with a six year old’s body, I’m sore all over

After I took a glance at Claudia tothe sheets, I looked outside theFor defensive purposes, thehad iron bars On the other side of the glass, I could see the ramparts that were considered the national boundaries It’s ate that was currently shut on the tall rampart walls

On the other side of the rampart, is the Densel Dukedo our country, seeing this for ht happen at any ti myself –

“Nooo, why can’t I get it nice and straight like the maids do!?”

Suddenly, Claudia’s idiotic voice interruptedthe strength in my arms to prop myself up

It see with the bed sheets, and because it wasn’t going well, she was getting frustrated Before she could rip the sheets, I hurriedly stopped her and told her it’s fine Claudia still seemed worked up and dissatisfied at the situation, and she turned and faced me, and spoke up seriously

“Erin-dono, please let uard you after all”

“It’s Eliza No”

“Sorry, I got it wrong again ……I think it was a good idea to say that those tere our maids But if I’m not here because I have to escort thes up to here in the meantime?”

I wonder if it’s because she caht, she’s even more insistent than usual However, it’s useless even if she begs me with those puppy eyes of hers As Claudia stared ata cat, she tried to overwhels

“Of course I can leave things up to the soldiers, and I can take care of uest that’s been entrusted to me by the Rolentsor faerous place It’s the same for those toer, I’ this of Claudia-dono”

“……I give up Got it, I’m sorry I’ve been too selfish”

Claudia’s head was drooping down, and just like that she went and laid down on the bed Because it was so rare to see her quiet like this, even though her being quiet was great for me, I couldn’t help but ask her a question

“Claudia-dono, why are you so enchanted with the idea of being a knight?”

Like a spring, she suddenly bounced back up A s, and she was looking at e in her, I asked myself mentally if I had spoken prematurely

“Thank you for asking, let me tell you!”

……And my ansas, I had indeed been too hasty

According to Claudia, as actually acting somewhat embarrassed, she started fro no talent in anything whatsoever, apart fronized by her immensely talented older brother

Her prowess in battle was indeed strong, so with her abilities, she would have a place in Arxian society Her acadeible to learn territory irl that wasn’t likely to inherit, but she was treated equal to boys with regards to military arts Claudia proudly said that her parents had a saying, if you have the free ti your spear skills instead, it’s considered norh it’s still rather unusual for an Arxian girl to possess such high combat skills

Her older brother, as probably worried about Claudia’s lack of interest in anything girl-like and her lack of self-confidence, seems to have told her that she had the talent to becoht It seeer sister had been better with the spear than he was, but in the end he seee his little sister It was an interesting story in its oay, I listened to it in silence, only responding occasionally to let her knoas paying attention
