Chapter 34: Bet yourself

In the , when I woke up, there was no Anzeros Most of the personal belongings have also been cleaned up

“!”

In haste, I put on my clothes and jump out of the room I bumped into Dianne

“Uwaaa”

“Mot out”

“What……on’t she wakethat”

“Well, calm down because the scout follows her”

“S, scout?”

“It’s Selenium”

Haa, Dianne sighs

“Now that she can use illusion inality of Trot she is the best for being the scout If there is any movement, the crossbow corps can be flown here as soon as possible”

“But……”

“Believe in Anzeros ……For now, you should take your breakfast early, as iton the course”

“Uu”

It’s frustrating ……But I know that it is not good to be too hasty at such tiive a clear answer to Anzeros, but it was certainly not ould happen if I ju the reason

——————–

“Good , mother”

“Difficult Ange obeys respectfully …… your answer is?”

“…………”

“……It is a face that doesn’t want to leave”

“Mother……does mother want to be Count?”

“Who knows”

“Who knows, please say it”

“That’s good either Ange, don’t blame me for the decision If I told you that I could be your master separately, would you follow me? If I say I want to be the Count, would you marry Randall’s son? If it’s about that, don’t pretend to be troubled fro”

“U……”

“What is so good about that guy? If you ask me, he is just the son of a blacksmith, who can’t use a sword and is handicapped for his whole life To such a man, you sold yourself out and put on a collar like that”

“Di, Different!”

“……How is it different?”

“…………”

“I will listen to anything as hter, so please take as much time as you need Please tell me what happened while you were away from me until you were satisfied”

“……Yup”

“…………”

“It was after the Trot war that I first met him”

———————————

“Hmmm ……Did it work?”

A few hours after I took breakfast Dianne, who had kept silent for a long ti over the cold weather clothes that Seleniuht from a store to Laila to store it

“What happened”

“……Older sister, Laila, and Jeanne advance our journey preparations, ill go as soon as the talk finished Aurora, Andy, co arena”

“Big arena?”

“It see such a story”

—————————————–

“……I see he was pretty gentle”

“Even so, I still misrepresent myself as a man”

“He actually did not recognize that you’re a woman?”

“Even if, ……he is irreplaceable to me”

“But Ange There are so many men who are kind Don’t be so narrow-minded Even in Trot you……”

“Different Andy is gentle, but without any strength, but he is strong”

“……Really?”

“Yeah He’s strong …Because I understood it, I was anxious to dedicate everything, but I wanted to dedicate The collar, in reality, he was against it But if he illing to hold me at ease, I could be a slave or a pet, so he wrote ed him”

“……Ange, But that boy Erik is also strong, he’s a good child, he will surely make you happier than anyone else Honestly, I can only think that it’s momentuht in a year”

“…… It’s i”

“Ah ……Then how about these kinds of things?”

“?”

“Then how about you see the good side of that Erik boy, he seereat swords as you are also a swordsman”

“…………”

“I’m sure it’s not too late”

“Mother……”

“……Ange?”

“What do you want me to do?”

“…………”

“Mother”

“… As the chairman of Sylpheed, I´m also threatened by that old man As a mother, it isn’t a bad story to sell out your child, as I want you to receive theI can leave behind for you Territory and a house that protects you forever”

“……But”

“Nevertheless, Angelina”

“?”

“As Linda Neuave birth to you with that idiot elf guy If hter pierces the world and decides her oay of living I never want to stop it”

“……Mother”

“Angelina who is not responsible for elina, not to blaelina If you decided to buy cheap, you would be delighted with the leftover oods, don’t ood Life is what you have to choose when choosing You just have to pay for convincing enough to get what you want To throay so for that, at least throay at your oill Don’t shoulder the pain squarely To live proudly that’s what it is”

“……Yup”

“Nohat do you do, Angelina”

“……I……no, I am”

“What are you going to do?”

————————-

Big Arena Apart fros There is a big ground where a horse race can be held and half of the citizens can take place in the audience seats In the base, which is a dedicated training ground for the Sword St Brigade Even though Sword Saints are called Ace Knights, they didn’t change fundamentally, and it seeht are allowed to enter this big arena, except for special exhibition days

“……I wonder ill it be?”

“Even if it is told, in the case of those who aren’t Ace knights, it is a rule that they can’t pass without the permission from the Corps Headquarters”

“Nuu”

Dianne uard Aurora plays the role of a supporter

“This person has the ability not to be inferior to Master Knights, she is famous in Celesta”

“Even if such a thing is said, I was born and never got out of Trot”

“Uu”

For now, only Aurora can enter and exit this big arena Even if you go into the headquarters and get permission if you don’t have too less to enter That Anzeros is doing soh here by then

“……It can’t be helped, come back, Aurora, you enter, please keep watch even if we don’t make it in time”

“I understand”

Dianne returns her heels, Aurora gently nods and enters the arena I chase after Dianne

“Are you going to get a letter of acceptance?”

“Indeed it won’t be possible to wait that far”

Dianne says so in a loud voice, pullingme to the back of the alley And then

“Okay”

She suddenly took hold of me

“Uwaa!?”

“Don’t be noisy……────!!”

A lightly dizzy sense

“Is it an illusion?”

“It’s a personal designation, well, as we fly around in the future, just for sure”

“Fly around!”

“Let me handle it……don’t raise your voice”

“Well,to cross the exterior wall and enter the arena!? That over there is a height of 20 meters”

“I can afford”

“Hii!?”

——————————

I experienced a 20held by Dianne

“Did you see your weight a bit sweeter? It was a little dangerous”

“I thought that it was useless”

It seereeted us who succeeded in infiltrating the big arena

“Anzeros-san, she is already here”

“What is Anzeros doing?”

“Souy called Randall”

“……Why?”

I don’t really understand the round opened and someone came in

“Selenium”

“Yes────!!!”

Selenium and Dianne cooperatively put up an illusion of space designation and conceal our appearance It was Anzeros who caate of the auditorium opened, Linda and several swords Yurisys came in

“Hmmm, explain to me, Linda”

“Is it necessary, your Majesty?”

“Unfortunately this senile old man´s mood is severe”

“Hah, often said …… As you can see, a match Between 『Anzeros』and Randall´s little boy”

“I a why it will happen”

“The Life of the Ace Knight of the Celesta Army [Anzeros], and the awesohter is clunize it unless it’s a serious match That’s it”

“Haha, are you saying that she is unyielding to you, Linda? If she loses, is it a taste for accepting fate as “Angelina Neumann”?”

“Don’t say fate, old man, such a cheap rut”

“HooHooHoo”

They are hypocrites fellows ……After a while, Erik ore arate opposite to Anzeros with a complexed face

“Angelina”

“……Erik Randall Sorry, for all that so sudden”

“No, I don’t care Either way, it is my daily routine to train here”

“Is that so ……When I was a child I had a dreao to the arena and hone ues”

“Now, if you live in the kingdoelina”

“Yes, but I don’t feel like living in the kingdom”

“Angelinsama……”

“If you win, I will be your bride, but I will do anything not to lose I want to overcome you, I believe that I have cultivated the ability to do so 15 years after seeing the nificent Sword Saint march and 10 years since Ito be hter of a merchant Let me surpass you and show it, Erik”

“……It won’t happen, but you can dream about it”

Erik slightly bites his lips, pulling out the sword, standing on the ground and grabbing the handle with both hands It isher short sword up in front of her chest as if praying Anzeros es position andto be the referee

“There is one rule until so of vital points and no grappling aht that is worthy of a sword”

“Yes”

“Yes”

Two people set up slowly And then

“Begin”

Aurora waves her hand They spread the stance at the sae to read each other’s hand from each movement

“I feel sorry for saying soant”

“What”

“I a”

Erik drops down and steps in It is the basic exquisite cutting one flash Anzeros is trying to get rid of it, so

“!”

“I also kept exercising for a siot a sense of , but if it is the same traditional style, men have more power and of course, it is natural”

“I see, the same……”

Anzeros slowly repositions and grins with her lips

“There is also such a thing”

At that moment, Anzeros accelerates all at once It is not difficult to follow her with the eyes froe, she probably rushes like a blast Striking the torso of Erik, without stopping, she strikes from behind

“!!”

Erik ed to receive it but tension ran on his expression Anzeos´s new tactic, high-speed maneuver

“I see……but”

Erik breathes deeply

“Haa!!”

Breaking in That speed……he will approach Anzeros!

“Naa!”

“I said it, I a!”

Gakin, Gakin, Gakin!

Anzeros retreats while avoiding the heavy slashes of Erik As one would expect, Erik Randall is like he said

“That boy Erik is not bad”

To Lindsan´s words, the Sword Saints in the surroundings nods

“The fighting power of 10- as his youth”

“Healthy, basic type of serious type, so there isn’t much space”

“His breadth of the field of view and the assembly of tactics are quite substantial, if he has a career record, in fivea Master Knight won’t be a dream”

“I see, I don’t quite understand, but I guess that it will go so far”

Lindsan sniffs ……There are only a handful of swordse Meanwhile, Anzeros is chased She didn’t seeh she correctly surpassed the slash fight with Erik at first

“Dianne, that one”

“It’s not good The fact that it’s the saement”

“After all, is Erik better?”

“The flow is also bad, you will have to attack first and push it by the number of steps, but if you allow the opponent to do this too, the momentum won’t come back easily”

“……Anzeros”

The size of Anzeros is small The product is also short If it is the sareatly Unlike Aurora, Erik seems to have endurance and seeh in that area

“Gu……!!”

Anzeros so her sword and creating a large shockwave Erik avoids it It didn’t hit him but his body collapsed

“CChieaaaa!”

There is one more shockwave If she can catch him and raise her opponent in the sky, the momentum turns into Anzeros´s favor It was a truh Erik collapses, he destroyed Anzeros’s shock wave…… with the same shock wave, that intercepted

“!!”

To drown out The surprised Anzeros stopsThe Sword Saints around Lindsan nodded

“Those who are using shock waves as attacks aren’t uncoht have been able to pass through an Ace Knight of Celesta who has no speed, it is an easy for 10-man captain Randall to handle it”

“It seems like that”

Lindsan clicks her tongue No matter how much Anzeros loses it talks, it seehter is coe

“……Let’s stop it”

Erik stops his shile re posture If it pursues Anzeros as it is, she probably will be pushed out with momentum, so he stops

“After all it feels strange to decide our e of swords, for whatever reason I think I’ what I want”

“After all it feels strange to decide our e of swords, for whatever reason I think I’ what I want”

“……Erik……”

Again, Erik is different from General Lucas

He can be emotional

“……Anzeros ill you do next?”

“Dianne!”

“If he had aht back, but if he says that, will she stop peacefully?”

“…………”

As Dianne says If I were in the position of Anzeros, will I still continue to have my way?

“The worst, you think about throwing Anzeros away, Andy, are you ready to becouy?”

“…………”

If I think about Anzeros……I don’t feel like letting go of Anzeros As I´ood to do that I whispered love to Anzeros yesterday It is not disarrayed with such adults as wishi+ng for the opponent’s happiness, it is an irresistible childish love that wants to ardless of whether the future will continue ……However

“……Anzeros!!”

“Andy!?”

Shortly after Dianne releases her control, I jumped out of the illusion and shouted to Anzeros

I left my crutch behind, so I can’t walk satisfactorily now But, by hanging out withdown the stairs of the audience seats, crawling on the stone floor, I raise my voice

“Don’t run away! Don’t be bearish!+ Try to fight back!!”

“Ah……Andy! Why……”

“Don’t give up as long as your technique doesn’t work!”

That is The words I heard when I was at Trot kingdo other than a blacksmith

“Don’t give up because the ene!”

Unreasonable, aggressive

“If you don’t have a weapon, throw a stone! If there is no stone spread sand! Don’t give up, do as s as you want! Do you want to maintain yourself?”

Still, soe over anything living

“You haven’t lost yet, you haven’t lost anything! You haven’t done anything yet!”

“…………”

My cry leaves a reverberation in the quiet arena Other than that it was restless When

“Huhuhu……Hahahahaha……!!”

The laughter was heard fro One of the Sword Saints

“……I see ……Hey boy, it’s been a long time”

“…………!!”

That Sword Saint turns his eyes upon me At that time, I noticed

“Instructor ……”

“It’s been a while, Trainee Smithson”

The bearded Sword saint The ave us a quick soldier education I can’t remember his name But it was surely him

“Well, I see, you don’t understand”

“What do you mean, 100-man commander Grants?”

“I ahter would fight because she is selfish and was corrupted by someone wicked”

“It’s really rude, isn’t it?”

“Hahaha But…… if it is trainee Sht to prove the time you spent with him, it’s different”

“……How different?”

“He is a prosperous Trot soldier I assure you Having the Trot Kingdom Army´s soul inside him in the past and even now

The bearded Sword Saint, 100-round with a smile

“It is our descendants to fight to testify of their strength It is the Sword Saints who aren’t bastards and succeeds the soul of the kingdoht, this is the fight”

“It’s going to lift my educational results quite a lot”

“I can not believe it, what Sword Saint, what is proud of what? We have succeeded And he and she succeeded You heard what he said”

“Ah……such a pride”

“Wonderful, isn’t it? But a warrior is a cluht to win Tenacious was the biggest plus for the Great Sword-St Brigade in the Northwest Plains”

Anzeros looked atthe conversation of 100-man commander Grants

“Is that so……was it encouraging every time you heard of t?”

“Yes, but it is not only that”

I breathed in deeply ……It’s getting war to say what I want

“Do not lose in such a place! I will love you until you break e return to my hometown, so absolutely win!”

……Huh

“……This idiot”

“Why are you saying that……”

Anzeros and Aurora looked down on the ground ……Well, yeah That’s true As 100-man codom of Trot and he was a wonderful teacher for Anzeros before she went to Celesta As for me……at least now Anzeros and I don’t think that it is not a connection of pride of Trot but that we are both individuals searching the best purpose, so we h, Lindsan, the Sword Saints and Erik are flabbergasted And, Anzeros

“I can’t lose absolutely if you say such a thing”

She turned bright red as she said so ……Yup It feels like I did so, but we actually are like this

“Ah, Angelinsama……?”

“Let’s start again, Erik”

“But……”

“Don’t worry about me, it’s just a personal hobby”

“Ha, haa”

I feel a little sorry for Erik’s puzzled face However, Anzeros stood there with her spine stretched out holding her sword and with a confident face as if she had been reborn

“Let’s go”

“Ha……”

Anzeros dashed Erik intercepted with a thorough attitude……when I thought he did it, he suddenly was bloay into the air

“!?”

Everyone atching took a breath Anzeros…… didn’t thrust into so position and shakes her sword What’s going on?

“……Ah, Anzeros-san, illusion……!”

“Eh, Anzeros can do such a thing……”

“You can do it! Anzeros-san, you can use illusion ic!”

“Ah”

I re told it by Seleniu a rudimentary apparition on the road to Helicon Thud and Erik fall from the back Anzeros slowly raises the point of her sword and talked

“I forgot to ic”

She just did it for the first tih the limit is to show a small hallucination, Anzeros is fearless

“Ku……”

“Did you say the saht surrounded by all kinds of races You’d better not think of me in the frame of a Sword Saint of Trot”

“……Distraction!”

Erik rushes to Anzeros to shake off his inferiorness Swinging his sword down But Anzeros isn’t there She stood right behind Erik

“My Master told me……at least, I will pursue you by all means from now on Let me throw you down if you want I’ll hold on to the collar and get dragged by my master”

“That……”

“I a to follow a person who is weaker than me”

No, I’m seriously weak? As I crawl, I made a tsukkomi just in my heart Selenium softly embraces me

“damn……why did she say it in this ill I do if I a at all”

“Andy is strong, at least for Anzeros you are better than anyone”

“Take me……”

“Anything by accident Anyway, Anzeros saw Andy-san’s cool side and Andy-san had never been disillusioned by Anzeros-san That’s enough”

“……A big irl”

Dianne also came down to my side and chuckled

“It is not an equal fight If only strength is that it isn’t it, no one can win against the Sword Saint Brigade”

“But……”

“But……”

“It’s a difference in the th……when you got weakened, you were strong, when you gave up, you didn’t give up You are strong, at least in your heart”

“Only that can be seen”

“For a woh to see it”

While talking about such things, Anzeros was using an illusion to trick Erik Erik is a Trot soldier and not an elf Even trying not to be et used to it easily

“Haaaaa!”

“That’s not enough”

The shock wave that Erik gave off hurriedly also vanishes swaying vainly Beware of being bloay by the shock wave that hid in the illusion, he , it is a form to be dihedral the pseudo-attack, and blow nureatly with similar skill Just a reversal Anzeros, who strikes back with the difference of illusion instead of reach, had really overwhelmed Erik

“This … … this, a little deceived, I am”

Erik who received a direct hit of shock waves a few tiainst the wall, bit his lip with a feeling of regret while tangling his legs

“10-ic

“……Grants-sensei”

“The Sword St Brigade lost to it, it is the ic on the battlefield”

“But, I don’t want to adainst such a distraction……”

“Huu”

100- his eyes at the next moment, he raised his voice

“Naive Randall! What do you think of this fight!!”

“!”

“I should have taught you that war is not a battlefield!! Were you thinking that everyone would fight with swords, bows, and spears alone! Because we forgot the taste of blood, the Sword St Brigade ended without being able to do anything!!!!”

“Se, Sensei……?”

“The cavalry stopped in a mere pitfall The infantry was scary of aisn’t able to do anything The Sword St Brigade was also annihilated by a mere illusion and crossbows!! Don’t look sweet, you immature! In a battlefield, a man like you is never useful!!”

“……”

Erik who has teary eyes falls on his knees Anzeros closes her eyes and upholds her sword in front of her chest with a cool face

“To that extent”

Aurora made a decision

“……Anzeros-san got the victory”

———————————–

“H result”

King Ulysses stands up

“Does this result ement with Randall and abandon your house?”

Anzeros looked up at the king while she put the sword in the sheath

“Yes, that’s right”

“Hirl, Linda”

Linda shrugged her shoulders

“Hah, after all your daughter, was caught by a guy who is not even a rookie”

“Well, it’s not bad, no uy she likes”

“But, she passed, you are definitely a dutiful daughter, Ange”

Linda smiled

“What do you mean with dutiful?”

“Don’t you know, grandpa…… She believes in etic, happy, best parents I don’t want hter to be unhappy to only protect her parent’s property Hey, I’ain if I need to go to another country Shall I move to Quika?”

“Hoohoo, that’s a problem What will Trot be noithout the Sylpheed company?”

……Ha? Wait a entle conversation

“Mo, mother……?”
