After we finished our conversation with Master Farga, who was supposed to help stop Mr. Caron, we went back from the basement where the fountain was located to the castle.

Dear Norn, who is in the mood to protect the city, I was somewhere disturbed by Leona's depression as opposed to her, but for today I decided to rest in a room that was appreciated by each of us.

"That's the castle room, it's not going to be extravagant..."

The room I was given was so big and so luxurious.

I was used to the lifeguard quarters, the dormitories of the Kirikhas, and the rooms that felt rustic like houses within the boundaries where Eva lived, so I couldn't calm down when I was in such a luxurious room.

"... you have to get used to it because you're here for the time being"

Three to five days later, Master Farga rebuilds the warfare of the brave to be mine only.

The shape and capability of the weapon will be determined by my mind... but I guess it means that it will finally turn into the weapon that suits me best, like Mr. Caron's weapon.

"The right weapon for me."

... blunt weapon?

Or something that can take advantage of the speed of your legs?

If that's what I want personally...

"I want something to protect you."

Hurting is easy with any weapon, but it's hard to defend against any attack.

Mr. Caron's attack in particular is a powerful one in which a blow can kill you. It's not a good idea to challenge them with no hands.

"First, I need to think about standing around with Mr. Caron before the weapons."

Melee battles with him can literally be harsh.

If we even try to dodge and intercept, we're confident we can buy as much time as we want, but then we can't defeat Mr. Caron.

The most ideal thing is to flirt with him at close range and devour a powerful blow, depriving him of consciousness.

A half-breed blow cannot pass an attack on his body.

Perhaps the decisive battle against him is to feed the evil dragon his true fists as I did. His body is as hard as Evil Dragon, but not as hard as Evil Dragon. That's what I actually fisted him and felt.

But can I put a real fist on him, who I am, like I did on a dragon?

"... it's too dangerous to attack without adding or subtracting"

If you do poorly, it will be irrevocable.

It is possible that he will die before he is cured by healing magic.

No, can you take the first blow while avoiding his attack in the first place? I don't think Mr. Caron will allow me to accumulate strength in a situation where an instant gap is an order.

"We still have time. Let's think about countermeasures in training."

In the meantime, let's start tomorrow with control of the force and evasion training in anticipation of Mr. Caron's attack.

I made plans for tomorrow, and when I fell asleep in bed and tried to rest my body, the door to my room was inadvertently knocked.

"Usat, are you awake?"

"Yeah, I'm awake."

Amako's voice.

Get out of bed and invite Amako into the room.

What the hell is that like? Asked so while preparing her seated chair and table, Amako replied concisely, "Because I was free".

"And I wasn't comfortable in that big room."

"Ha, I know. That feeling."

If the room is too big, you won't be comfortable.

I also sit in a chair that I moved myself, laughing bitterly at her words.

"Did Nair and Mr. Alk see you when you came here?"

"Mr. Alk was taking care of his sword, and Nair was already asleep"

"Isn't he going to bed soon?"

Even though I'm a vampire, I feel like getting up early in bed is getting routine.

Normally, the night is supposed to be the activity time, but these days Nair has a longer activity time during the day. Somehow, I get a vague look at her as she's becoming a healthier and healthier life.

"Were you tired? I knew it."

"I guess so. I know you're tired of traveling, but it happened today."

I don't know because I had Nair give me a hand when I fought Mr. Caron.

Honestly, without her spell of resistance, it could have been dangerous.

... There's nothing I can do to combat the cold air, so you're going to have to rely on Nair's sorcery.

"... now I can help too"

Pompous and Amako have said that to me after thinking about it a little bit.

I immediately understood that the words meant that she would join in the fight against Mr. Caron.

"... Amako"

"It's okay. I won't do anything dangerous, I'm just trying to do what I can. Besides, Usato is so worried because he's just so impotent."

Sure, I could be impotent this time around.

If you look from the edge, I'm doing something really dramatic. [M]

When I was an evil dragon, I fought alone and got a painful blow, and when Samarial cursed, I was about to break my heart in danger when my souls tied to the curse, unaware of the magician's presence.

The more I thought about it, the more I did things that weren't weird for her to worry about.

"Ha, sorry. Just worry about it."

"... yeah. Usato should take care of himself some more. No matter how strong your body is, you're going to lose it one day... maybe?"

Why do you call it that much and maybe put a question mark on it?

Speaking for himself, Amako looked at me with a subtle look, anxious to see if she really would.

"I want Usat to help my mother, but I don't want Usat to sacrifice me for it."

"I don't even want to be sacrificed. I still have a lot of work to do."

Save Amako's mother, finish her journey safely, and why reunite with Kazuki with Senior Dog in the kingdom of Ringle?

There's more, but you can't fall until you achieve that first.

"Besides, starting tomorrow, it's training in preparation for fighting Mr. Caron. Alc will be joining us, and Leona will be doing it with us, so we should be able to expect some results"

"I hope so..."

"Something bothering you?"

Asked Amako with a subtle expression, she said spicy diagonally.

"Those people still have something to hide from us... I feel"

"What you're hiding?"

"I don't know what that is..."

... what you're hiding, huh?

Mr. Leona and the others are hiding something.

I don't know if you want us to know you belong to another country, but what is it? I know it's definitely something to do with Mr. Caron... Hmm? Speaking of...

"How could Mr. Caron have had a dragon factor?"

It was explained that he was not a normal person. I took it, but in the end I couldn't get him to tell me why he had the dragon factor.

That may not be a very important part of it, but if the Falga and the others are intentionally hiding the origin of his powers... don't get a little nervous.

"Amako, is it possible to talk about people turning into different species?"

"... yeah. I've never heard that before. So it's pretty weird that Karon's turning into a dragon."

"Are you crazy?"

"Even if there is, it's a curse. Or... it could have something to do with his blood. If the blood of a subhuman were mixed with his ancestors, the same human would be born in a few generations when the blood of that subhuman would appear colorful"

"... heh"

That means it was the dragon factor that was in Mr. Caron, and then there would have been a dragon in his bloodline.

It's like a myth or a fairy tale.

"Well, whatever Mr. Caron's blood muscle is, it doesn't change us from fighting. You might soon be able to tell me that Norn and the others are hiding it, and you shouldn't care so much."

"So is that."

Amako snorts.

Yes, I don't need to know why there is a dragon factor in Mr. Caron as it stands.

The problem is that his body is being strengthened by his transformation into a dragon's body. Maybe his body turned into a dragon triggering that evil dragon ran wild the night he woke up.

Upon awakening, he wore the dragon's ”ferocity” and the dragon's ”power” and robust ”scales” at the point of leaving the cell.

And today - as a change that was a table, I woke up to the tail and horn of a dragon.

"... Either way, it's bad to prolong it"

I may not be able to get my hands on it any more.

"Speaking of which. The demon people called in from the kingdom of Ringle today... Are you a black knight after all?"

"Hmm? Oh, yeah."

Amako asked me that, thinking a little bit.

Amako has seen the Black Knight in prediction, but you never met Fermu, the contents of the Black Knight.

"I don't know, it wasn't who I expected it to be"

"Ha ha, that's what I thought when I talked to her too"

"What kind of person are you? From what I've seen today, you seem like someone who feels strong..."

I told Amako about Fermu. [M]

He briefly explained how he fought on the battlefield as a black knight, how he interacted in a cabin after he caught him, and then joined a lifeguard.

"He's so powerless that he'll leave his injuries alone. I was a little worried that she was doing well in the lifeguard because she was also a junior to me. It's been a long time since I've seen you today and I'm glad you're doing well."

Besides, you didn't expect the shape of the armor to be in the shape of a lifeguard uniform.

I don't want to, but does that mean you didn't hate your life in the lifeguard that much? Then I'd be happy to be me.

……

……?

Amako has been staring at this one surprised as Fermu keeps his mouth shut about what he's doing fine.

"... Usat"

"Hmm?"

"Surprisingly, you're a woman."

"Wait a minute. Where did you learn to say that? Tell me because I'm not angry."

He rides himself out and protests, albeit in a less commanding tone of agitation.

Too wet. Still, I'm pretty shocked Amako tells me that if you're going to tell your senior half the joke.

I'm going to cry.

No, I was already crying.

In the first place, I've never spoken of heterosexuality, but I'm not convinced they say it's a femininity.

"'Cause I just think so"

"No, no, no, no. Why are you rotting there? I'd rather rot this way!?"

Amako pointing his mouth.

I excuse myself desperately, but her jito eyes remain the same.

Then I tried to prove my innocence by gesturing, but in the end, Amako gave me the dishonorable title "Usato is unconscious", which ended the conversation.

●

The next day I visited Miarak.

Having rested my body in an unfamiliar large room, I was taking a trip to the castle training ground in Miarak after a treat for the breakfast the maid had made for me.

The only two people at the training ground were me and Ark, and Amako went to Burlin to give him dinner, and Nair didn't want to go outside, so the maid had even led him to a place where Miarak's books were kept.

Miarak's training ground was more extensive than I expected, and I stood there and started off with a light prep movement.

"Huh."

The outfit is not a team outfit, but clothes for training in life-saving corps.

The clothes over here can be dirtier when it comes to training, so I can move as much as I want.

"Well, I'll do as I always do... it doesn't make any sense, so I need to set a good goal"

Instead of working out to the dark clouds like every day of training, this time set clear guidelines.

Our opponent, Mr. Caron, is not sweet enough to win with the right measures. You can't afford the cheap idea of building muscles because you lose with force.

... but in fact, the first thing I don't know is what to do.

Lord Usato.

"What's going on? Mr. Alk."

Mr. Alk speaks to me as I twisted my neck.

He also wore simple clothes similar to mine, which were not serious in his hands, and he had a wooden sword.

"Seems troubled, so I thought I'd give you some advice."

"It helps. If I'm going to work out, I can do it, but I don't know what to do if I'm going to fight..."

The only way I fight is through a combination of amateur rounded fleshshell battles and unintentional blows using healing magic bullets.

There's no solid skill, and what I'm trying to do is fight and kill.

"No, in Lord Usato's case, that's the art of fighting, because you didn't have to learn the art of battle, so in a way, you can't help it."

"Really?"

"Yep. But it doesn't necessarily mean that problems like fighting evil dragons, Samaritan's curse, and... this battle with Lord Karon won't happen in the future. In order to protect Lord Usato himself, you must acquire the skill of battle."

Indeed, our next destination is the kingdom of the Beast Man.

It's a subhuman country that hates humans. There's no way nothing's going to happen to us going to that country.

Even then, it doesn't necessarily mean you can just cut through combat methods that are biased against your physical abilities.

"Tell me how to fight, Mr. Alc."

Mr. Alk nods at my words. [M]

He is a first-rate knight. It is definitely better to teach him than to train alone. [M]

"Now, I'd like to check Lord Usato's movements first, so let's do one thing together"

"Oh, suddenly?"

"Yeah, I don't know what I'm not going to look at."

... Think about it, that's the second time you've fought Mr. Alc.

The first time Nair manipulated me, but that one can't measure Mr. Alc's strength because he hasn't shown his original strength.

"There is a use of magic, and please be as serious as possible. Because it doesn't make sense otherwise."

"Uh, are you sure you're okay?"

"If so, Lord Usato will cure you."

That's what I said in a joke, Mr. Alc, but the fact that there is a use of magic should mean that Mr. Alc also uses the magic of flames.

His strength, backed by solid experience and skill, would be considerable.

Don't be alarmed here, let me challenge you with the intention of borrowing your chest.

Taking a small, deep breath, I look at Mr. Alk, who is making sure the wooden sword is in good shape, and move to the center of the undamaged training ground around him.

- Wait a minute.

"Hmm?"

But as we tried to get our feet in the middle of the training ground, a woman emerged from the castle.

"What, Mr. Leona?"

"... suddenly, I'm sorry"

She walked over here, shaking her tied blonde hair in one piece - Mr. Leona spoke to Mr. Alk after glancing at me with a slightly contemplative look.

"Lord Alc, can't you leave that role to me?"

"Huh?"

Not Mr. Alc, but Mr. Leona with me?

Why did she make such a suggestion - and I thought about it - but I recall what Lady Farga said to Mr Leona yesterday, and I think that is why.

"As far as I'm concerned, I don't even wish to be considered by you, the knight... What about Lord Usat?"

"I don't mind either."

Both I and Mr. Alc know that Mr. Leona is a man of strength. There's no way she's a shortage to the opponent who can fight Mr. Caron directly from the front.

... and also my personal feelings, but I feel the danger of not letting this person go.

I don't know what kind of problem she's having, but it doesn't start without trying to step in first.

"I thank you for listening to such unscrupulous wishes"

Beautifully bowed, she walks to the center of the training ground with one hand the wooden sword she already had.

Mr. Alk talked to me, who was dropping him off.

"She is quite powerful. There is no doubt that experience and skill are above Lord Usato. Don't be alarmed and try to fight you."

"The way I fight...... yeah, I get it"

This could be a good opportunity to see how much my way of fighting works at the moment. [M]

Unlike at first, as a matchmaker in that he's not Mr. Alc, but still doesn't know Mr. Leona's movements at all, maybe it's good.

"Come on, let's try it"

I squealed so hard that I headed to the center of the training area where Mr. Leona was.
