“Huh? You came out?”

The captain of the guard waiting outside welcomed the crowd coming out from inside.

Among them, the master of the black-haired female slave. A man with an unnecessarily pretty appearance came running.

“Excuse me… I’ve got a little problem… ”

“… What is it?”

The captain tilted his head.

Behind him, a beautiful woman wearing silver armor was walking towards him.

oh…!

Gloria’s captain. She’s a real captain.

The captain’s eyes sparkled.

He is a huge fan of Stacia.

Could I at least get an autograph? Or a handshake?

He was at a loss, like a puppy that needs to poop.

But the fandom for Stacia didn’t last long.

The person who followed her around. It was because of that slave from before.

Why is he following the captain again?

And in such a tragic way…

The two men stood at a distance in the center of the parade ground.

Is that it?

What is the… duel… posture?

“… Is what I’m seeing right now real?”

“I have a question”

The handsome man lightly ignored the captain’s question.

“… What is it?”

“Isn’t it legally problematic for a slave to fight a knight?”

What kind of crazy nonsense is this?

The captain of the guard doubted his ears.

You’re fighting? With that woman? With the captain?

It was nonsense.

It was something I couldn’t understand.

The problem wasn’t that slaves were fighting knights.

The problem was that he was dueling with Stasia.

“Did I hear that correctly just now?”

The captain asked again.

“Ah, I’m glad there’s no legal problem. Hey, Baldana, come here”

The man brushed his chest nonchalantly.

The slave(?) from earlier came running towards him.

“Did you call Hild?”

The slave woman looked up at him with sparkling eyes and cuteness.

You look a bit old. It doesn’t suit your age…

The thought sent shivers down my spine and made me want to pee.

The slave was glaring at him.

“Do you have a knife?”

“… None!”

The slave answered confidently. It couldn’t be there, since it broke a while ago.

The man sighed and held out the sword at his waist.

“Use this”

“… Can I… use this?”

Slave girl. Below, Baldina was cautiously trusted.

A handsome man. Hild still had a worried look on her face.

“Heald. Don’t worry too much”

“… Do you know what I’m worried about?”

Yeah, to be honest, I don’t know who to worry about.

Should I worry about Stacia or should I worry about Valdena?

Or should I be worried about the day when I worry about these two?

Baldina smiled a little prettily, not knowing whether she knew what I was thinking or not.

“Hoohoo, whatever… Don’t worry about your worries”

“… Yeah, well… since you’re doing it, show me a good side”

Valdena is Valdena, but on the other hand, it is not the Valdena of that time.

This means that I am not fighting Stacia out of revenge or hatred.

The only reason she entered this duel was to surpass her previous self, and to be purely competitive with the sword.

“I won’t let you down”

After saying those words, Baldena went to the center of the parade ground…

It didn’t go straight away.

“…Why aren’t you going?”

Baldana glances to the side and crosses her body shyly.

“… Uh, won’t you cheer me on?”

Huh, I really…

I’ve only just unlocked the portal, and I have so many wishes!

But the warm country boy Hild

He suddenly grabbed her nape and kissed her.

“Can you win now?”

“I will definitely come back with my head cut off”

No, there’s no need to do that.

When Stacia saw that, she came running, shaking her head.

“… Me too! I need support!”

Hild gave Stacia the same kiss.

“Did you see? My kiss was 0.3 seconds longer?”

“… Huh! It doesn’t matter. I’ve sucked Hild’s dick too! ”

Baldina was already running, so it was too late to decide the outcome with just a kiss.

Shocked, Stacia quickly returned to her seat and drew her sword.

From the very beginning, the aura has been flowing.

“I will definitely kill you”

It was the first time she had looked at me so fiercely.

Baldana pulled out the Whirlwind Trust with a snort.

“Can you see? It is Hild who personally lent me her beloved sword, Baldena…!”

“… Ugh, ugh!”

The effect was excellent.

Stacia held her sword in such a way that it crumbled.

Baldina also struck a pose with elegant movements.

As the aura rose, blue lightning crackled and flashed.

There was no judgment.

There was no one with the skills to judge those two.

Thinking that the two would figure out a good match, I sat down in the stands outside the parade grounds.

It seemed like a faint breeze was blowing.

The wind gradually grew faster, and soon it was blowing so hard that my hair was flying.

A moment of silence.

A momentary gap.

…feeze.

Two storms collided.

The first one to open was Stacia.

She drew her sword across, brimming with aura.

Baldena blocked the sword that was rushing towards him with a whirlwind of trust.

Kwajijijik-!

A huge wave spread out around the impact point.

It was Baldina’s successor.

Lightning shot out like a spear.

Stacia stood slightly to the side and cut off the lightning.

What follows are thousands of invisible strikes.

The two inspectors’ minds were mixed up in a mess.

Each one is fatal,

Each and every one was crucial.

While the battle was going on for a while.

Stacia suddenly stopped her sword.

Then Baldena’s sword stopped like a ghost.

“…Why are you doing that?”

Baldana asked.

Stacia opened and closed her sword-holding hand, then smiled.

“You’ve changed, Baldana. I can definitely tell”

She smiled brighter than ever.

That laughter wasn’t unpleasant. Rather, it was welcome.

Stacia took off her armor.

The heavy steel armor fell to the floor with a thud.

“Let’s do it right”

“… Are you… speaking properly?”

“Yeah… Properly”

Baldena suddenly walked towards where the group was.

“Why? Where are you hurt?”

Baldana shook his head.

“No, that kid is trying to do it properly”

“… Properly?”

“Okay, then return this”

Baldana returned the trust to the storm.

“You don’t have a knife! What are you going to do!”

“… There is. Hild. I always had a sword ”

The two inspectors faced each other again.

It was similar to before, but a little different.

“It looks a lot lighter”

“You’re the one. You look good”

“… Really? What do you like about it?”

“The point of abandoning foolishness. The point of growing further. And yet, the point of not abandoning pride”

“Huh, that’s nice to hear”

“Show me what you’ve earned. Your pride”

“Yes, of course”

Take a deep breath.

A hand that goes against the waves.

The raging storm.

A sharp sword.

Although it is invisible, it is everywhere.

That is my sword.

Baldena grabbed his sword.

Quaoooo-!

A huge storm of blades swept through.

“Hey, what the hell is that?”

Hild, who was watching the duel from the other side, was startled by the storm so strong that she couldn’t even open her eyes.

Baldana was holding the sword with his empty hand.

“Wow, that’s amazing. It’s really amazing”

Stacia smiled brightly.

It is a tribute to a colleague who has walked the same path as the inspector and has not given up his pride.

Awe towards the martial arts that broke down the wall at all costs.

A tribute to the obsession that sublimates revenge.

“I’ll do my best too”

A sword held firmly with both hands.

Stacia’s eyes sparkled. A brilliant star appeared.

The overflowing aura showed off its light like waves, like a volcano, like a star.

Her surroundings were bathed in dazzling golden light.

“No-sword, Star-dropping”

“Sung Gwang-hwi, Song of the Stars”

Two swords clashed.

Beep-

There was a strong ringing in my ears.

We, who were watching from the stands, had our eyes tightly shut against the light and storm that enveloped our entire bodies.

What happened?

As soon as I came to my senses, I looked at the center of the parade ground.

The two people were facing each other, just one step apart.

I quickly ran towards them.

“Are you both okay? Are you hurt anywhere?”

When I looked closely, it was a sight to behold.

Stacia’s clothes were in rags and there was a deep wound on her arm that was bleeding.

But surprisingly, she was in better condition.

Baldina was covered in red blood all over her body, and her arms and legs were trembling.

Fortunately, there was a fist-sized hole in the stomach.

“Hey you crazy women! What if we fight until it gets to this point!”

The two women met eyes without paying any attention.

And then he laughed.

“What do you think? If you have any thoughts on this sword, feel free to tell me”

“That’s right, that was great. You’re really great, Baldana. I have to admit it”

“Huh, of course. Do you know who gave me this power?”

A pleasant smile appeared on Baldina’s lips.

“What the hell. Who gave you that power? You told me not to worry about it, whether it’s power or not, and now you’re like this?”

“… Hild. Are you worried about me?”

“Of course… don’t… you little shit… ”

Looking at him, who is starting to speak,

Baldana caressed his cheek with her bloody hand.

Warm and soft.

“Of course. Now it’s natural for me to be worried about you… ”

Do you know how happy those words are? How much I wanted to hear them?

I grabbed Baldina’s hand that was touching the ball.

It’s cold and hard, yet soft.

“Let’s treat the wounds first”

He sits her down on the floor and pours the potion over her.

Baldena took the potion without saying a word.

He ate so well, gulp gulp.

Some sprinkled it on the wounded area.

Stacia, who had been watching quietly, sat down next to him and held out her injured wrist.

I glared at her, but she looked away, embarrassed.

“I decided to do it moderately”

“I did it moderately. I said I would kill you at all costs, but I couldn’t ”

“I’m proud! Oh my!”

I’m probably the only one who can give Gloria’s captain a hard time.

After pouring a potion full on the honorable captain, I felt much more at ease.

I wonder if they are not superhumans with a name.

Even if you have a flat stomach, you can still come back to life with a few bottles of potion, so being a warrior is good.

“Come to think of it, was it really necessary to be this grandiose?”

After taking a breath, I remembered my original purpose.

Our goal was just to get into town safely.

That damn ID! Because of that damn ID!

“Hehe, don’t be like that, Hild. But I could see that Valdena had changed”

“So, do you really need to make this confirmation so grandiose?”

“You are also a prosecutor and a person without a human being, so you would know. There are things that you have to know about a person without a human being. Haven’t you experienced it yourself?”

When you put your finger on a woman, you can tell what she’s thinking.

I didn’t bother to bring that up.

“So, can Valdena get an ID now?”

“Of course. She is a great slave. I guarantee it”

When you say it like that, something seems a bit strange.

“Hey! What the heck?!”

“… Huh? Oh, that’s it. That’s what it is… ”

The captain of the guard who had been watching from afar came running out of breath.

Suddenly, the two of them dueled, and I witnessed an incredible majesty that turned the world upside down.

Even the woman who fought the captain was alive and well.

“Captain of the Guard. She is this man’s slave. I can guarantee it”

“… Is that so?”

“Yes, you saw it in the duel just now. This guy is a very good slave”

The captain of the guard looked at Baldena with eyes full of fear.

Baldana, whose eyes met his, glared at him.

“hi, hiiieeek”

“Valdena, that won’t do!”

The man stopped her by feeding her chestnuts.

The scary slave let out a whining sound.

“I’m really a slave… am I right?”

All eyes are on Baldina.

The captain of the guard was still suspicious of her.

What should I do? I shouldn’t put Hild in trouble.

Valdena felt responsible for this situation.

“Bar, you’re a slave to Valdena, right? Right? Right?”

“… I… ”

Baldana steeled her resolve as she watched Hilde sweat profusely.

What does pride matter? What does status matter?

Anything would do if I could just be by his side!

“Aww, slave Baldina! I’m hungry!”

So the master of the sword.

The warrior Baldena was reincarnated as a slave.

It was autumn…
