Thump thump thump thump-

A dull sound echoes through the training ground from early morning.

If you close your eyes and imagine it, it might sound like beating a drum. Maybe it’s the sound of something huge running across the ground? I even have a guess.

“Wow, hehe.”

The cause is none other than Siron Prien.

The results of the training began to come out. It’s been a little over a month. No, maybe longer than that.

Compared to normal training, the efficiency was several times greater, and in addition, the stone tower built using all the techniques within Siron’s reach gradually began to reveal a majesty that could not be ignored.

“It’s the last lap. Master.”

The owner of the lively voice is Encia, who served for the first time. The order of attending to Siron, one by one, went by and it was her turn.

“So? How many people?”

“Five hourglasses. It’s exactly 25 minutes. Master.”

“… … Good.”

Siron took a deep breath and exhaled several times, and soon his face became calm. When I thought to myself, I couldn’t help but smile with satisfaction, thinking that I had made a lot of progress in a fairly short period of time.

3 minutes have decreased since the day I first started.

The difference was only about 10%, but considering the weight that Siron was carrying, it was not unreasonable.

thud-

Siron roughly put down the luggage piled on his shoulders.

Although there was no dust due to the wet snow, a loud noise that could be mistaken for an explosion echoed through the training ground.

“You’re great. Master!”

Ophelia, smiling brightly and clapping her hands repeatedly, is a bonus. Siron gradually increased the intensity of his training and increased the number of people to assist him to two.

Siron shook his head as he cleaned up his luggage that he had thrown on the floor.

“Stop it. I’m probably the weakest in this mansion, and I’m just embarrassed.”

“Ophelia’s words are not wrong, so what’s the problem? I have served many Priens so far, but none of them has achieved this much in a short period of time as you. I think you can be a little more proud.”

“It’s done.”

Encia looked into Siron’s eyes and agreed with Ophelia’s opinion, but Siron just dismissed Encia and held out the cup.

Encia seemed to have noticed that Siron was embarrassed, so she narrowed her eyes and smiled.

“Ah, you say that again. I think it would be good if you had a more childlike side.”

“Childlike side?”

“Yes. Sometimes, when I see you, you have a strangely blunt and adult side.”

“… … Where are you going?”

Siron listened to Encia’s words.

It’s mature. What this means is that one’s actions are creating a significant sense of discomfort in those around them. There is no harm in being careful.

Encia touched her chin with her hand as if she was thinking.

“If you had to choose, what would it be? He doesn’t whine about asking for snacks, he doesn’t make unreasonable requests as if he’s worried about something when giving orders, and he works so hard at training without anyone telling him to.”

“I’m glad I’m not like a child. Even if the back is different, just thinking about doing the things in front makes me want to beat them.”

“What do you think? The head of the previous generation and the head of the previous generation were also like that when they were young.”

Encia poured lemonade into Siron’s cup, chattering as usual, and Siron turned his attention and quenched his throat as if he had just listened.

Sweet and sour rain poured into my mouth, which was filled with a thick, sweet smell. The slightly stiff ankle and trapezius pain disappears as if washed away.

‘Well, the result exceeded my expectations.’

A distantly high achievement in poetry. The majority of that share can be said to be thanks to the lemonade made by Encia.

The action was correct, aiming to immediately remove [Exhaustion], which is a type of status abnormality. The first goal was to create an environment where you can constantly train your body without overworking it.

However, there is another fact that was obtained by using one’s own body as an experiment. The true effect of this fraudulent consumption item existed separately.

The inevitable waiting time for growth can be ignored.

In other words, most of the improvement effects resulting from recovery are only results without any process.

Shiron quenched his appetite as he looked at the cup that was already empty.

“Would you like some more? Master?”

“No. This is sufficient. Rather…”

Siron politely declined Encia’s offer and looked at Ophelia, who was sitting quietly in the flower bed.

“……Tsk.”

Perhaps realizing that she had become a target, the girl with an impression as fluffy as cotton candy hurriedly hid her hands behind her back.

However, it is a pattern that has been experienced many times already. Even without Siron opening his mouth, Encia approached Ofelia with a smiling face.

“Ophelia. Didn’t you follow along knowingly anyway? Stop giving up.”

“……Yeah, but.”

Encia, who had caught Ofelia behind her, seemed to be feeling playful as she placed her hand on Ofelia’s shrunken shoulder and whispered.

“Ophelia. If you don’t let go for three counts, Siron might eat Ophelia!”

Encia scared Ophelia with an exaggerated gesture and gave Siron a strange look. He seems to be expecting something.

‘what?’

What are you asking for?

Siron seemed to understand her intention and took on a somewhat threatening stance. Because there was nothing I couldn’t get along with.

“… … If you go back and come out, it’s one at a time.”

however.

“Puhup.”

“Fuha!”

In fact, reactions that were far different from those that Siron had expected occurred one after another. Ophelia looked at such a theory blankly and then burst out laughing. She covered her mouth with her sleeve and laughed, thinking that Shiron was quite cute just now.

“Master. Are you really doing that? Such outdated lines in today’s world… ugh. Where is the city government miscellaneous boat? Ahahaha. It’s tacky.”

“… … Ugh.”

I tried my best to get along with them, but what I got back was the girls laughing until they left.

Encia traced the corners of her eyes with her fingers, as if she had shed some tears.

“ done. I was crazy.”

“No. young master. I was just so scared.”

Ophelia smiled and praised Siron, who bowed his head and sighed…

‘Fuck.’

Siron just cursed under his breath.

Before I knew it, I was caught up in Encia’s skit. Moreover, I was scolded for what it was.

Well… it was shit. I was secretly paying attention to the fact that he said it wasn’t childish, but…

Siron sighed deeply.

I looked away from those people who didn’t know what was so funny and laughed, and held a spear in my hand.

“… … I’ll just mind my own business.”

The boy massaged the back of his neck, which was feeling numb, and then turned his gaze to the castle wall at the end of the training ground, which was quite far away from here.

The castle wall where his gaze rested on had numerous spears embedded in it. As you go from the bottom to the top, the deeply embedded windows become more and more regular at intervals, and there is no more disarray, as if you had drawn dots with a ruler.

This is also the same as lemonade.

[Märchen Maid Girl’s Flower Decoration]

It increases accuracy and dexterity by 5, but in the original game, it is treated as garbage for its insignificant stat increase, and it is a minor consumption item that can only be obtained once.

There were many people who skipped the quest due to its dismal inefficiency.

However, unlike the game, Ophelia would sit in the flower bed and make flower decorations whenever she had time, even without Siron asking her to do so.

Thanks to this, you can extract as much power and accuracy as you want, but the only flaw is that there is no status window, so you can’t check how much your stats have increased.

It’s a game where you’re possessed, but there’s no status window…

Siron quenched his appetite and felt regretful.

‘Even if I increase the accuracy beyond this, there won’t be a noticeable change.’

“I will look after you today. Ophelia.”

Siron’s reaction as if steam had escaped. Encia added that she was disappointed.

“Yes? Are you not tearing it up today? Before throwing a javelin, he snatches Ophelia’s precious possessions without mercy! And you tore it up.”

“… … .”

Precious… What?

What kind of bullshit is that bastard talking to that kid right now?

Siron gritted his teeth. Encia had been annoying me since a while ago… and it was annoying to see Encia making fun of me. My grip suddenly tightened and my eyebrows furrowed.

Siron lifted the spear and stabbed Encia’s side with all his might.

Knock-knock-

A scream, whether from tickling or pain, echoed throughout the gym.

“Ahh! sorry! hot! It hurts!”

Encia put her hands forward and struggled.

‘It’s a big deal.’

It was nice to hear the cackling sound, but Siron put down the spear as if he was tired of Encia’s cowardice, which was pleasing without causing any pain.

“… … I was going to quit if this was successful anyway. Efficiency slowly decreased.”

Siron tapped his shoulder with the spear and looked at the castle wall.

Extend the hand holding the spear and your right leg back. Measure the distance between where you are currently standing and the castle wall. Relax your whole body to its limit and fix your gaze on the goal.

and.

Wedge-

With the sound of cheers, a spear flew in a straight line and hit the target.

An ordinary javelin with no mana or fighting spirit. But the results were unusual.

The center of the spear stuck into the castle wall.

A spear pierced through the gaping end.

‘I guess this is enough.’

A faint smile suddenly appeared on the boy’s lips.

The initially planned goal was achieved.

Siron raised his head and checked the state of the sky.

Blue weather without a single cloud. It is a rare sunny day here where Dawn Castle is located.

There will probably be clear skies tonight too.

It was truly a good day to monopolize.

This is Ophelia and Encia!
