What should we say if a cross-dressing man disguises himself as a man again?

A man who cross-dresses?

Well, anyway.

You can’t wear a skirt while practicing swordsmanship. I, Amelia, Adele, Lady Hoover, and Evan all wear pants.

Of course, these are clothes that women would wear. The exact details vary from person to person, but in general, they should not be uncomfortable when moving, so the clothes are designed to fit the body.

So, even if you wear men’s clothes, you’re basically saying that a woman’s body is revealed.

However, the general perception in this world is that pants are for men, so in a sense, this outfit was also cross-dressing.

“… … .”

Allen had his hair tied back, probably a wig, and had a shameful expression on his face… … Instead, seeing Allen made me feel confused in many ways.

What made him do this?

“We have a set routine when training. First, we all practice the basic postures together. The Crown Prince—No, I don’t know how much you know… … .”

“Okay. I’ll follow along.”

Still, it seemed like he was sincere in his intention to train, so I just nodded.

*

Amelia also knows the basics of swordsmanship and has decent physical strength.

However, since the others are so serious about swordsmanship, Amelia usually ends up covered in sweat after the most basic training.

Since she was not skilled enough to compete with me in swordsmanship, Amelia’s training ended with a simple match with me.

Well, actually, Amelia just wanted to follow me rather than really want to practice swordsmanship.

That makes me happy.

Next in order was Adele and the Huber Lady.

The two always attacked me together.

At first, it was only because these two were the only ones training under me, but seeing Evan do this even after he participated, it seems like he has grown attached to it.

Let’s just be happy that the Hoover Lady is not bothering Adele and move on.

And then Evan.

The outcome of the game, as always, ends in my victory.

Even though his skills are good, and the more he trains, his posture is getting closer to perfect… … Well, wouldn’t it be too much to beat me in a short period of time?

But as you train, one day the story may change.

After sparring with Evan to the point where he was covered in sweat, it was finally Allen.

“… … Are you saying that you will deal with me after dealing with four people in a row?”

Normally, it’s surprising. In a tournament, the person who comes from the bottom and wins goes up to the top and doesn’t rest to face the next opponent.

“If you are confident of winning, try to win.”

But I spoke after wiping away the slightly damp sweat from my forehead with my sleeve.

Haven’t you already competed with Allen?

“… … .”

Did he think that my words were being ignored?

Allen rushed towards me without warning.

widely!

The sound of wooden swords clashing against each other was heard.

Suddenly, the sound of two trees rubbing against each other was heard, and Allen’s sword floated upward. Even though he struck down with both hands as hard as he could, he seemed unable to overcome me, who was holding the sword with both hands as well.

Now, what should we do?

While looking at Allen’s embarrassed face, my gaze suddenly stopped on his hair.

Should I give it a try?

Even though it is a wooden sword, it is actually enough to kill a person. Just as a mop can be split into pieces and used as a spear, the end of the wooden sword was sharper than expected.

This means that not only can you kill someone by beating them to death, but if you have enough strength, you can even stab them to death with this weapon.

That doesn’t mean I’m going to kill the crown prince.

I’m just saying that the tip of the neck blade is sophisticated enough to pick out something delicately.

I lowered the tip of the wooden sword and touched Allen’s bangs.

“What!?”

When I lifted his bangs with the tip of my sword, Allen was scared and fell back.

That hair is a wig. Even so, I wouldn’t have put my hair together just to get training.

Okay, then let’s go with this for today.

Swish, swish, the tip of the sword teased golden hair.

“Ah, ugh… … !”

A new voice came out of Allen’s mouth. It was a thin voice. Is he still acting? Or did he always make this sound when he was surprised?

Well, it doesn’t matter which one.

There was no one here who did not know that Allen was not Allen, but that does not mean that it was the official position.

Even if it was like this, there had to be a ‘man who got caught’ in order to kick out Allen outright.

Well, that doesn’t mean it’s true.

If Allen could save his hair, I planned to allow him to take another class next time.

“Such a joke… … !”

Before you know it, sweat is streaming down your face… … No, I laid her down in front of me and straightened my sword.

“It won’t be a joke if you block it yourself.”

If I fail to take it off, of course Allen wins.

If that happens, I will have no choice but to admit it.

Anyway, nature doesn’t lie.

*

“Ha… … ha… … ha… … .”

In the end, Allen succeeded in protecting his pride, which was as important as his life as a royal.

“How about… … what… … .”

In the end, he failed to maintain that polite tone. It seems like he doesn’t have enough time to get there. Judging by the way his voice comes out thin.

Is it because of my taste? Allen was better when he was just Allen. I like that cruelty a little.

I was sweating and I shook off the splattered sword.

In fact, if I went any further, I would have succeeded in removing the wig. While Allen was preoccupied with protecting the wig, I could have tapped him on the neck or arm.

But I still tried, so yeah.

“Still, it’s great.”

At my words, Allen’s expression brightened slightly.

“But, it seems like he’s still hiding some of his strength.”

His face hardened again at my next words.

“Are you hiding your strength?”

He used aurors. He strengthened his body, so he would have been able to dodge and block my sword to that extent.

However, after looking at my opponent slowly for quite a long time, I began to see little by little things that I had not noticed during the last sparring.

Especially the slightly unnatural body movements.

Should I say that I’m out of breath? I haven’t seen any settings in the novels I’ve read about the crown prince and crown prince having something like asthma.

I guess I was aware that I was running out of breath, and I was impatient with my actions. It was as if I thought I wouldn’t be able to hold out if I waited here any longer.

hmm.

Well, since this is a world where Evan has changed from a man to a woman, it wouldn’t be strange if Allen also had something hidden.

I’m curious, but I guess I won’t bother digging into it.

“Then, shall we take a quick shower and rest? Miss Allen, you plan to wash and rest here too, right?”

At those words, Allen’s face turned white.

It’s a situation you chose.

Accept it.

*

The order was that the women washed first, followed by Na, and finally, Allen.

“… … .”

After washing everything, my hair was so wet that I looked like a wet cat.

“I, I, will go first… … .”

I offered a chair to Allen, who was barely able to form words.

“It’s difficult for a girl to go out without drying her hair.”

Amelia snorted at my words. I was the ‘girl’ who usually didn’t care about such things the most.

“… … .”

“I will go back after having a cup of tea, but there is no shortage of seats.”

Finally, after Van said that, Allen sat down.

The hair under the wig will still be wet, right?

“So.”

Perhaps because Allen was sitting in his seat, I was the first to speak up instead of the children who were unusually quiet.

“Where do you usually live? I feel like I’ve seen your face before.”

“… … Near the royal palace… … .”

“Oh, I see. I don’t usually go near that place often, but it looks like I ran into him somewhere else.”

“… … .”

“When did you learn swordsmanship?”

“Since I was very young.”

In the end, perhaps because he thought it would be difficult to escape from me for a while, Allen gritted his teeth and answered.

Yes, that’s right.

No matter what, you should not disobey your teacher who teaches you the way.

Even though the contents are allan, it’s nice to see it like this because it looks like a well-behaved girl.

I don’t know how I would feel if I heard those sounds myself.

*

Vando, who usually went to the mansion with us, left early today, perhaps because of his younger brother.

“You looked happy?”

“To be honest, I enjoyed it a little. You’re always rude to me, right?”

I asked Amelia while holding her with one hand in the carriage.

“Was I being too harsh?”

“Um, well.”

Amelia said, leaning her face against my chest.

A thin arm wraps around my waist.

Amelia, who was silently hugging me for a moment as if she felt me, soon let out a chuckle and spoke.

“Well, try as hard as you can. If you run into any problems, leave it to me.”

Amelia was so lovely when she said that, so I hugged her tightly in my arms.
