Chapter 16 – A Female Knight? – 3
A magical storm raged.
The pressure of magic that began with the strike of a sword composed of magic that shined like the sun that fell in the center.
The knights dealt with the test in two ways.
Hold on or shed.
-Dump!
“Keugh!”
“Unbelievable… !”
“Suck!”
One or two of those who held out began to fall.
Those who were confident in their toughness, stamina, and magic chose to endure.
The amount of mana in the body isn’t everything. Starting with how to use mana, where is the main focus? Depending on the quality of the person and the vision passed down from the family, even the knights in front of me began to endure in various ways.
But even that had its limits.
So, what about the knights who chose to shed?
“Kyaaaaa!”
“Whoaaaaagh!”
– Poof! Thud!
Magical pressure pouring down from the sky. Knights who started shedding it survived more than those whose purpose was to endure. But that was for a while, and the mana that had been pressuring him gradually began to sway like a rippling wave, and in an instant it turned into a raging storm of magical power.
One by one, the knights who were swept away by the raging storm appeared one by one.
They also played a little better, but they started to get swept away because they couldn’t keep their balance in front of the huge flow.
“Hoo.”
Aidan, more than the knights who still held out, aroused admiration at the sight of his brother who administered this test.
Aside from noble lineage, the younger brother’s test was quite good. Starting with not only striking down with that overwhelming magic power than the mighty magic power of the sword of the sun slashing down in the center, but also equally distributing all the knights to feel the same pressure, forcibly manipulating the flow violently, there are two ways to withstand it and to shed it. He made all the knights who were defending in four ways fall into the test.
He knew the skill of his brother, Leoric.
The maids treated Leoric comfortably. I knew it from the time I visited in front of his father once in a while, starting with controlling the magical energy in his body without spilling a single tip…
Maybe one of the magic controls is better than himself?
‘I could have been a really troublesome competitor.’
The antagonist of a life tied by blood. It might not have been too bad either.
Aidan, who looked at Leoric for a moment, smiled and looked ahead.
Only a handful of knights were still holding out.
It must be said that the rest of the knights over there are quite usable.
Aidan decided to remember their faces.
* * *
“Hoo. You are more skilled than before. Second boy.”
Haha. This is nothing.”
It took a little effort, but even Hans could do this much.
Well, the control one was confident.
Since I was little, I used to play with mana when I was bored.
Actually, isn’t everyone like that?
Since I was born again, if my body is full of mysterious energy, wouldn’t I use it out of curiosity?
Because of that, since he was old enough to speak, he used magical powers and flew around.
Although he crashed in an instant and made a fuss.
By the way.
I’m worried about the way my older brother looked at me earlier. I almost got chills and I almost got chicken skin.
He pretended not to know and looked at his knights.
Almost half of them dropped out.
Did I have to say it was amazing that I had half left?
“It holds up quite well.”
“First of all, they are the ones I have chosen. Rather, those less-than-falling bastards who just fell off are training in hell for the time being.”
Aye…!
Poor guys. The knights who fell and flew away gained magic, but they were still trembling.
Isn’t it because of the hell training that will happen from now on rather than the shock of my test?
It’s their destiny, so they pass.
“Hey.”
Among the few remaining people, the one who stood out the most was the female knight in the center.
Braided silver hair and blue eyes. She had a face without makeup, but with makeup on, she had a slender physique and beautiful appearance that could make her a noble lady. He frowned and groaned at the pressure of my magical power, but even the stubborn will to insist that he did not want to lose was contained in his eyes.
-Dump!
Even those who were holding out, draining as much of my mana as possible with their own mana, began to fall down one by one.
Even during that time, the female knight was holding on quite well.
The legs that tremble while still soft are cute like a deer.
“Sssss,sssss… !”
Are you limiting yourself now?
-Shoot it!
Recovers all of the mana that has been spread.
You can blow it up as it is, but it looks like the rest of the kids will be blown away as well.
The recovery rate is fast, but it’s a waste.
-Dump!
“Huh… !”
Out of breath! I looked at the remaining knights who were freed and breathed heavily. Almost enough to pull out with one hand. The sudden disappearance of the pressure eventually collapsed them too.
As she watched the fallen knights gasping for breath, she looked at the one she thought had endured the best. Of course here.
“Your name?”
“Huh, huh… ! Big, heo! Nice!”
“No… Breathe more slowly.”
I looked at the female knight looking at me with her head held up with difficulty as she fell down. He was staring at me in a cold sweat and in a state where he was on the verge of exhaustion from having consumed it in a short time, somehow awake.
Quite a bit of persistence.
I looked at Grandpa Hans behind me, and he was smiling with satisfaction.
“Huh, huh… Whoa, haa, my, my name is…”
I saw my face reflected in her blue eyes.
She said her name as if she didn’t want to make me wait any longer.
“My name is Chloe Tristan!”
“Great. Chloe. Will you be my vassal?”
“Yeah! It is an honour!”
Although still down, one of her eyes was shining.
I like it.
Stretched out her hand
“It is an honor, young master… , No. Leoric!”
* * *
“So your name is Chloe Tristan?”
Arrived at the office.
The only people in the room were me and Chloe.
Chloe, who was wearing a proper uniform instead of her training uniform from earlier, had a dependable side unlike her slender body.
Yes, even if it is smaller than me.
“Yeah. This is Chloe Tristan.”
A female knight standing in her upright posture saying her own name quietly.
Her stature was so small that her head barely touched my chest, and her body was slender.
No matter how much magic you have, you need physical strength and mental strength to be a knight. There were actually quite a few traces of tempering.
The amount of magical power is slightly below average for a knight. Judging from his previous skills, it must be said that mana management is his specialty.
“Tristan, Tristan.”
It’s a nickname I’ve never heard of.
“It’s a pseudonym I’ve never heard of. Is it new?”
“Yeah. In the past, my uncle worked hard, but he couldn’t have children, and just in time, I was born with magical powers and inherited the family name.”
Hmm. Indeed.
That’s still one.
If you put it like that, the amount of magic power is understandable.
Chloe is just starting out. You should continue to leave your own bloodline and combine it with other bloodlines to elevate the bloodline itself.
It’s not something that ends in one or two years.
It’s literally 50 or 100 years.
“Then, going back to the beginning, do you have any complaints about becoming my vassal? Not compulsory If it is now, it may be undone. I will use my hands so that there will be no disadvantages.”
“No. It is the family’s honor to become the sword to protect Leoric.”
It’s burdensome.
It seems that he is sincere when he looks at me straight in the eyes as he speaks quietly.
“Can you do anything I command you to do?”
“Yeah.”
“Even if it is dishonorable?”
Chloe, who had been responding to my words so far, looked at me and immediately knelt down.
“No matter what the order, I have already dedicated my sword to you. To fulfill any order, whatever it may be. That is my honor as a knight.”
I looked down at her. Looking at Chloe on her knees and bowing to me, I knew she was serious.
I found a nice guy. A nobleman must give a worthy reward to a vassal who has sworn allegiance.
“Then what do you want?”
“He who became a knight, I do not ask for such a reward.”
“What are you talking about? It is also the duty of nobles to reward vassals who become close aides. Are you okay. You can tell Surely the owner won’t make them nobles who can’t reward them?”
“Well, then…”
Chloe’s cheeks, which paused for a moment at those words, slowly began to heat up.
What is he trying to say?
“Le, Leoric-sama…”
“My?”
“Hey, hey, hey, hey… !”
I looked at Chloe, who was now blushing.
“Baby?”
“I want Mr. Aeggi!”
“Well.”
Dear baby
* * *
Suppressing the sound of her heart pounding, Chloe closed her eyes tightly.
It’s embarrassing.
To say that he wants Mr. Aegi when he said earlier that he didn’t need an award.
How pitiful.
However, Chloe, a first-generation knight and an emerging knight, is really like a ephemera.
Although he obtained the title of knight, there is little difference between him and an adventurer, from lineage to assets.
It is possible to train as a knight with magical powers, but it is difficult to make a promise to the next one.
It’s not that the rank built up in the bloodline is high, and how much magical power the child who inherited his blood might inherit.
Few people want to marry into such a family.
A knight’s marriage is the best if he marries the same knight, but it wasn’t uncommon for a knight to bring an adventurer woman as a secondary score.
The best thing is to receive a surname.
“Ah, indeed. You want Seong-eun.”
“I’m sorry.”
No matter how much she is a woman, she herself can’t believe she’s saying this.
Chloe blushed in shame.
The day she became a knight, she swore to renounce her femininity, but when she did, her heart thumped.
“Hmm. Would you like to raise your head?”
“… Yeah.”
Chloe, who was looking down at her because she didn’t know her face, slowly raised her head at the words of her master.
From now on, her heart thumped at the gaze of Leoric Franz, the second boy she would serve.
Is it because of shame or…
‘The person who became a knight is such an idiot!’
Just as I was trying to deny the thoughts that came to my mind and try to keep my immobility as much as possible, Leoric Franz opened his mouth.
“Great.”
“Yeah?”
Chloe stared blankly at Leoric at the moment she heard her voice.
“Instead, not now.”
Leoric smiled and looked down.
“I give you points every time you complete what I tell you to do.”
“… It is as a knight to carry out the orders of the lord.”
“No, that’s not an order. It is a very special order.”
… Special command.
Is it like an assassination mission? Or such a mission that requires you to abandon your position as a knight? Even if it was such a mission, Chloe would do her best to carry it out.
After a moment of silence, Leoric spoke again.
“Isn’t there a skirt for knight conquest?”
“Yeah.”
Although she usually wears pants, she can wear a skirt for occasions that require some formality.
Leoric glanced at Chloe slowly.
“Put on a skirt.”
“Yeah.”
“Take off your panties.”
“Yeah?”
“Then one point per day.”
“Yeah?”
“Every time you reach 100 points, I will give you a surname.”
“Yeah?”
“You will work as my secretary from now on.”
“… Yeah?”
