Chapter 29. I like female knights ⑴ I taught the king the swordsmanship and training techniques I improved a few months ago to the best of my ability.
Thinking that this will be a vision passed down only to the royal family in the future, for some reason I feel like my secret diary is becoming a national treasure, and I feel a little hot.
And the king is said to have passed the same secret to my brothers.
All that remains now is for them to faithfully practice the secret method I suggested.
If you don’t believe it and don’t practice it, it means that there is only that much trust, so I didn’t have much interest.
However, not only the king, but also the other brothers seemed to have put a lot of trust in my training method.
The king, whom I called and met in the past few months, was noticeably stronger than before.
If it’s not because of my mood, it feels like my muscle content has increased 1.5 times compared to before.
“I heard rumors that my father was almost at the final stage of expert.”
Of course, I flattered others moderately, pretending to have heard.
The king nodded happily.
“It’s not just this body. Surprisingly, your brothers also improved quickly.”
From what I hear, the oldest brother has also reached the intermediate level of expert. It is said that the other brothers have also awakened to the aura.
Incidentally, Kania’s sister also reached the intermediate level of expert.
Now I don’t have to teach every day.
You just have to look at it sometimes.
“This is thanks to you, Arell.”
Anyway, thanks to that, the king’s trust in me became stronger than before.
“It’s just… it’s a training method you devised, but you can’t use it…
I think it’s quite unfortunate.
Maybe I just think I’m giving away my hard work.
“Because I have no martial arts talent.
I don’t really care.”
“Is that so?”
Instead, the king gives me more solid support.
For me, that’s sweeter.
“hmm. It’s a bit of a long story.”
He cleared his throat, as if he had finally made up his mind to explain why he had called me.
“Arel. How many knights do you want to entrust?”
“Are you… a knight?”
“Yes. Wouldn’t you need a knight to protect you?”
Because I’m weak… No, first of all, external recognition.
Anyway, I’m really weak, so if I blow it, I’ll fly away, so it seems like they’re going to give me knights to protect me.
“There are quite a few people who want to come to you.”
Then he ordered a servant to bring some rather thick papers.
It was a list of knights who volunteered to be my knights.
From the family name to the detailed skills and criminal record, everything is recorded without omission.
“All of them are great talents.”
“At least there won’t be those who lack qualifications.”
Most of them are children of famous families who are not inferior to each other.
In addition, since I want to hear the king’s words now, there may have already been a review before that.
It is also proof that the perception of me has changed a lot from before.
Maybe if it were me a few years ago, these people wouldn’t have volunteered for my exclusive article…
Is this why people should watch after getting ahead?
A bitter laugh was about to come out.
‘Is it an escort?…
I muttered to myself, thinking about it.
Honestly, if you ask if you need it, the answer is no.
Of course, all those who volunteer have excellent families and skills, but I am not weak enough to be protected by them.
But… I don’t plan to show off my strength, so I actually need an escort driver.
‘…The same thing as last time could continue to happen.’
At the very least, there is nothing wrong with having someone who can protect me and those around me.
“You don’t mean to take them all, do you?”
“Did you want to?”
Well, it seems like it will give you everything.
But I have no intention of doing so.
Where… As far as I know, there are about three exclusive drivers.
Then you have to choose three of them.
A total of 30 people volunteered for my exclusive articles.
Of these, only three must be selected.
Is the competition ratio 10 to 1?
Well, it’s good that the competition is fierce.
For some reason, I felt like the president of an excellent company.
‘What kind of guy should I pick…
Of course, I should pick a guy who has a good personality, listens to me well, and has good skills.
only thing i care about
‘…if possible.’
I looked at 9 documents.
What these documents have in common is that the applicant is a woman.
boys?
Oh don’t you know? set aside
The day I will see that will never come!
Now that the opportunity has come, I will confess one thing I like.
‘As for escort, female knights are better.
Huhuhuhuhuhuhu?’
Actually, I really like this place.
I am surrounded by beautiful and strong female knights.
Just imagining it makes a good picture.
Does this make you laugh?
The opportunity to make my dream come true came unexpectedly.
The chance to build your own harem of female knights has come!
I guess I have to choose this carefully.
* * *
I told the king that I would select them myself after an interview.
I gave an appropriate reason that it was difficult to judge based on documents alone because he was a person who would escort me, and he accepted.
….what an excuse is that.
In my heart.
Since you can’t tell who’s pretty just by looking at the documents, I thought I’d have to go through an interview.
In the first place, there are no photos here, so it is impossible to know the face just by looking at the documents.
For that snobbish reason, and for one other reason, I concluded that escort knights had no choice but to see and judge for themselves.
It was interview day.
The interview was decided to be held in my office.
I sat at my desk, resting my chin and thinking blankly.
Come to think of it, at the very beginning of my life, I… every time I saw an interview, I failed everything, right?
I used to be like that, but now I’m in the position of an interviewer, hehehehe…
This is why people have to go through a previous life and see it.
Surely, having lived a previous life at least once, the number of people blooming?
“First, I’ll interview the male drivers first.”
I will pass the interview process of 21 boys.
Honestly, do you smell like sweat?
I didn’t plan on hiring anyway, so I just pretended to be interviewing.
I plan to hire only female knights, but if I don’t interview the male knights, it will be a problem for my reputation.
yes please have mercy
I’ll give you a chance to give a five-minute speech.
ruler? Try barking.
Yes, but it’s a dropout.
After the hellish time in the name of interviewing with boys.
For some reason, I shook my head and tightened my mind as I slumped on the desk feeling my mind had been cut off.
“Now let these guys come in. ah.
Just try to come in all at once.”
If possible, let’s feel at least a bit like a female knight’s harem.
From now on, this is the main room.
pounding! pounding!
The atmosphere in the office, which was dull just before because of the muscular boys, will become a little brighter now.
I was sincerely looking forward to it.
I’ll be honest.
At this time, I was on my guard.
Should I say that there was an empty gap in the mind rather than physical carelessness?
Even if someone scolds me for being foolish, I have no choice but to listen with sulk for now.
“….Unbelievable.”
My cute face, which had been smiling brightly just before, is now bluish.
my hands are trembling
what? It’s strangely cold.
It’s cold Patrasche…..
Ah. I almost blinked and ran away from reality.
So, is this what horror is?
How long has it been since you were bored like this?
Is it the first time except for the second life when I just reincarnated?
The reason I’m shaking so much right now is because of the female knights who came in for an interview right in front of me.
It doesn’t mean that they have a problem.
Obviously, they are excellent as knights.
It must be because I, and no one else, admitted that.
But what are you complaining about?
To put it bluntly, it was different from what I had imagined.
This is the life here that I dreamed of in my head.
De-I was imagining such a pretty female knight who boasts superior beauty and wields graceful swordsmanship.
But reality betrays me.
When I first saw the female knights who came in for an interview, I was intimidated.
Most of the women who entered were women who felt like warriors in reverse.
Should I say real Amazons?
Wow… Look at the strong muscles and the sense of intimidation…..
I think I can catch people with just my eyes.
It looks like it can fire sword energy from its eyes.
Certainly, as a knight, it’s realistically ideal.
It’s definitely combative.
strong friend! strong knight!
“…I’m not the female knight I dreamed of.”
I inadvertently muttered a small murmur.
“Arel. I’m sorry, but I couldn’t hear you well.”
One of the female knights speaks.
Startled, I shook my head at high speed.
“Oh nothing! I didn’t say anything! yes. No complaints!
Say no!”
“???? yes?”
They’ll probably wonder why I’m doing this.
Well, it’s too much to be dissatisfied.
In the end, they just trained as great knights without rest.
You can praise them, but you can’t criticize them.
It’s just that I had a strange delusion, damn it.
Yes, turn off the heat in your heart.
Do you seriously want to go for a job interview?
It was because they needed a skilled person to escort them anyway.
“Hmm? They all look strong…. Ugh.
You look really strong.”
….It looks too strong, so it’s a mask.
In particular, the female knight who looked the strongest in terms of appearance alone was as tall as 2 meters and 30 centimeters by eye estimate.
Wow…. He has more muscles than my dad…..
I think that’s more like a wild berserker than a knight.
I’m sure I’ll be safe for the rest of my life if I’m escorted by him.
With an escort like that by your side, any sane guy wouldn’t attack.
It’s just that no one seems to be coming for life.
I’m not that weak, so there’s no need for it… isn’t it?
huh? You don’t have it?
While I was almost shaking like that, I was looking at each one.
“.. uh?”
I almost lost my mind inadvertently.
There was one beauty that even I could admire for a moment.
The body line that stood out even though she was wearing slick blonde hair and a simple uniform.
Rather than being a knight, she was a beauty that could be trusted by any noble lady.
‘…is it a knight?’
It’s nice to have found the beautiful female knight I’ve been longing for, but after seeing her first impression, I inadvertently tilted my head.
Compared to the other articles, something feels different. Is it because of the appearance?
I looked through it once and then briefly talked to it, but there was no problem.
‘It’s also an interview, so I’ll have to do it seriously…
But I can’t finish the interview like this.
This is because the second factor that was judged to select the escort knight could not be confirmed.
“I want to think for a moment, so could you wait outside?”
When I asked for my understanding, the female knights bowed at the same time and quietly went outside.
The angle is definitely set correctly.
“then…. Shall I prepare myself?”
Get ready for the real interview.
After ordering no one to enter, I meditated with my eyes closed in zazen in the room.
