“Of course it is possible! Our Lucy is bringing a friend to the mansion. How could I refuse?”

Benedick raised his voice as soon as I spoke.

Uh… I didn’t know it would be so easy to get permission.

Is it okay for other people to participate in the Knights’ training?

Won’t problems arise if internal knowledge flows outward?

And then. Shouldn’t we at least ask the knights if it’s possible?

“Haha! What are you worried about? Porcell If that guy were Lucy’s friends, he would be welcome too!”

That’s still not a solution.

Benedick. I don’t think a person named Gaju should be this irresponsible.

“And Lucy. Do you think other families could copy our training by taking it? If he was capable of something like that, he would have joined our knighthood rather than somewhere else.”

I tilted my head at the tone overflowing with pride for the knights.

Is the training of the Arn Knights that intense?

Of course, it’s true that it’s extremely difficult, but isn’t everyone able to do it after becoming an engineer?

According to other people’s stories, I am now at a decent level as a knight, but I followed what the knights did.

‘is it so?’

When they explained that a decent knight might die from exhaustion halfway through, I realized that I had been greatly mistaken.

No, I was just planning to give them a light experience of hell training during vacation. I didn’t really intend to send them to hell.

“Ugh! My daughter, who was always alone, finally has a friend!”

However, I couldn’t take back what I said.

How could I tell my daughter, who was crying because she was so moved by the fact that she was bringing a friend, that it was a joke?

Umm. I’m not sure, but I’m sure Porcell will take care of it.

He doesn’t teach others for more than a day or two, so wouldn’t he be able to keep up with his friends’ level?

‘…I’ll think about it.’

“You can receive training from the Knights of the Arlen family?! Truly!?”

Arthur jumped up from his seat, his eyes shining and his lips hanging.

The relaxed smile that could not hide the fact that he was so excited seemed to show that Arthur, who was usually an adult, was ultimately nothing more than an adolescent boy.

‘yes. I got permission.’

“I want to say did you believe that and see the poor immature prince slump his shoulders. Unfortunately, it’s true. I also got permission.”

“Thank you so much! Lucy Aln! oh my god! The training of the Aln Knights!”

Joey tilted his head at the sight of Arthur walking around the room to soothe his excitement, as if he couldn’t stand still.

“Is it such a big deal to be trained by the Knights of Aln?”

I wanted to ask that too.

The training of the Aln Knights is nothing more than just rolling over to death, so why do you like it so much?

I just don’t understand.

“Wizard Joy, you wouldn’t understand! Those who practice martial arts will not know what the Aln Knights are!”

Arthur hit the desk with a bang and began telling several stories, telling me to listen carefully.

It was a story about the various feats performed by the Knights of Arn in the past.

Let’s start with the story of Aln’s progenitor, who was awarded a title for single-handedly conquering a dungeon known to have a level of danger in the past.

Even the story goes that when war broke out decades ago, Aln single-handedly maintained the front line and turned the tide of the war.

Arthur, who spoke without stopping, suddenly turned his head towards me and raised his voice.

“Do you understand! Lucy Aln! The knighthood you will one day lead is one with such a deep history! We must write a new history with pride in our own name!”

I think I once saw something similar to Arthur.

ah. okay.

otaku.

I felt like that was the case with kids who liked idols, anime, or anything else.

Arthur is a knight otaku.

…There was a setting that he admired knights, but I never would have guessed that that admiration would lead him to the point of five virtues.

I’m a little sick of it.

“What! Those facial expressions! It’s natural for men to admire knights!”

no. Even though I look like that, I am also a man, right?

I think knights in armor are cool and I like them, but you are so serious.

People in general are not this passionate.

“Listen! Why I like articles!”

“3Prince. Leave it at that. The longer you talk, the more eccentric you look.”

When Joey pointed at me and spoke, Arthur cleared his throat and closed his mouth.

“More than that, Lady Aln. What roughly does the training of the Knights take?”

‘Do you want to know?’

“What is it? Idiot girl. curious? Do you really want to hear it?”

“Because I want to participate in training with Young-ae as much as possible. I want to know in advance what I’m doing.”

After hearing Joey’s words, I recalled the things we did in the Aln family.

Umm. It’s difficult to say exactly what the training is like because it varies from time to time.

Let’s find some common ground.

‘I guess it’s better to give up sleep.’

“It’s easier to give up on sleeping. Fool Porcell may be a smelly man, but he is just as vicious during training.”

“…Give up sleeping?”

‘yes. ‘It’s natural, right?’

“Yes. Isn’t that what all knights do with their stupid training?”

The tired gaze that had been directed at Arthur just now returned to me.

no? Wasn’t that like that for everyone?

Ever since I gained a certain level of stamina, I’ve always trained like that?!

As I looked around, Joey touched my forehead.

“Haaa. I understand why the training Lady Arlen suggests is at odds with common sense. The entire Aln family was like that.”

Then he looked at me with salty eyes and continued his explanation.

“Young-ae. In a typical knightly order, they teach how to sleep efficiently, not how to overcome sleep. Because humans cannot overcome sleep as long as they are humans.”

Eh?!

really?!

Sleeping during training?!

Rather than training day and night for a week!?

“The same goes for our church’s Knights Templar. Young-ae. Giving up sleep has greater negative effects.”

“Same goes for us. Sleep well.”

“…The same goes for the Capital Knights. After the guy who tried to ride in the past failed miserably while making a fuss, it has become a well-established belief that sleep cannot be overcome.”

It may have been just one Patran family, but since three other people testified, it was clear which side was common sense.

Usually, during the training of knights, they are put to sleep.

‘How do I know that!?’

I thought all knights in the fantasy world did that!

That’s why I thought the articles were really great!

“Lady Aln? I know you’re confused, but could you explain the other parts as well?”

I was afraid that what I thought was common sense until now would turn out not to be common sense, but I couldn’t ignore the other four people’s gaze, so in the end, I had to tell them as many things as I could think of in common about the training I did at the Arlen family.

“March at the same speed as a horse? And all the while moving?!”

“You’re crazy. It’s not something humans do.”

“I don’t think it would be fun.”

“…I’m sorry. Young-ae. I think that’s strange too.”

Don’t you do something like this?!

Was Porcell always saying that mobility is the life of a knight?!

“When you collapse from exhaustion, they force you to give them a potion to make them move.”

“Isn’t that already the realm of torture?”

“It’s never fun.”

“…I’m sorry. Lady.”

Isn’t that the training that was enforced while saying that the situation was not considered a crisis was normal?!

I thought a knight would definitely do that!

“They swing their swords with the intention of killing each other. That might be kind of fun.”

“It’s not fun! How could something like that be fun!”

“I am becoming more and more afraid of the Aln Knights.”

“…I’m sorry.”

The faces of my friends growing pale with each word they spoke told me how abnormal the place I grew up in was.

…If I think about it, I think my grandfather hated it when the Knights of Arn were training.

‘If that’s the case, can’t you tell me in advance that it’s strange?!’

While I was correcting my own common sense, the four people sitting at the table were sharing subtle glances with each other.

“I understood why Lucy Alln was so strong. The reason why all the people of the Aln family are extraordinary.”

“Because you have repeated such training, you have become a knight who can respond to any situation.”

“I heard rumors from a Holy Knight before, but the reality is worse than the rumors.”

The words they exchanged were different, but the meaning behind them was similar.

“…3 Prince. Are you really going to do this?”

“Why are you asking me first?”

“That’s why the prince is the most excited about being trained!”

“At that time, I didn’t know that the Knights of Aln were such crazy people!”

no. I’m out of my mind. That’s harsh.

They may be a bit eccentric, but they are still nice and fun kids.

Otherwise, would you have trained with a weirdo like me?

“You are like that! If I could train with Lucy Alln, I would be happy to participate!”

“I didn’t know it was that kind of training! No matter how you look at it, it’s not the training a wizard needs!”

Wizards need it too, right?

Wizards don’t know how tired they are? Aren’t you in danger? Don’t you ever struggle to survive in extreme situations?

The training of the Knights is necessary for everyone.

The one who interrupted the two people grumbling was Frey, who was resting his chin as if indifferent.

“It may not be fun, but I think I can become stronger. I want to do it.”

“…Are you serious?”

“Don’t do it, prince. After I get stronger, I will crush you and call you a bastard.”

As the corner of Frey’s mouth grinned as if imagining the sight of victory, Arthur bit his lip.

“Damn it! You can do it! if! No matter how hard the training is, you won’t die!”

ah. That’s okay. It’s really hard enough to kill you, but you won’t die. Having participated in training several times, I can guarantee this.

“Me. I decided to receive separate magic training from my father.”

“Where are you thinking of running away! joy! This is the order of the three princes! You too, participate!”

“I don’t like it! I’m not a knight, I’m a wizard! So!”

“Hmm♡ I thought Idiot was my friend, but he wasn’t Idiot?♡ I never thought you would abandon me so easily♡ I’m so disappointed♡ I can’t help it♡ Now, show me respect again♡”

“I will do it! I really want to do it!”

under. joy. I’m thinking about running away somewhere.

I said I thought about training for you separately.

Once you’re in my hands, you can never escape.

“Wow. I never thought I would go into hell on my own.”

“If you don’t die in hell, you can become stronger. It’s like a story from a myth.”

“Why are you assuming that you might die?”

“If everything Lucy Alln says is true, it wouldn’t be strange if she died at any time.”

“…I hate that I can’t deny it.”

“I hope it’s a fun death.”

While the three people who decided to visit the Knights of Arn were grumbling, I turned my attention to the remaining person.

Fabi. She wanted to follow me wherever I was, so when she caught my gaze, she lowered her head and fiddled with her hands under the desk.

“Sorry. Young-ae. I don’t think I can participate.”

“Paybee! Are you running away alone?!”

“Saint! This is shameful!”

A normal Fabi would have responded to the grumpiness of those two people with a smile.

But today was different.

Instead of getting over the grumpiness, Fabi jumped up from her seat and responded to the grumpiness.

“Do you think I want to get away from you?! If only it weren’t for the church!… Ah.”

Fabi quickly covered her mouth with both hands, but the words had already come out.
