'Hmmm... ...... looks like Fara is doing well ......'
I was in my room looking over a letter that had arrived from Fara in Renalute.
I have been writing to her since the incident in Renalute.
When I wrote in the letter that the nickname "Princess Fara of Invitation" had spread to everyone in the mansion, I could feel her panic through the letter and it was cute.
As for the origin of the nickname, I told her in the letter that I went to see Fara, which triggered a series of good events, including my mother's medical treatment and meeting dwarves, and that the nickname "Princess Fara of Good Luck" took root as I told her about it.
In fact, the nickname became popular after Capella told Mother inadvertently that dark elves are a symbol of good luck, since it is rare for a dark elf to have ears that move with emotion.
Fara's ears sometimes move up and down depending on her emotions.
Since she has not told me about this in person yet, I will pretend I don't know about it until she does.
I read the letter all the way through, but only the last sentence concerns me.
......But then, what does Farah say, 'I have something to show you when you get to Bardia territory. Asuna has also praised me, so please look forward to it.' I wonder what that means. ......
When I started exchanging letters with Fara , the letter mentioned that she had started something o , but she would not consistently tell me what it was.
She has a tendency to start things out of the blue, so that's the only thing that bothers me.
Well, ...... that kind of thing is part of Fara's charm. ......
But the fact that Asuna is praising her probably means that people around her approve of what she is doing, so I guess I don't have to worry that much. While I was thinking a little with Fara's letter in my hand, there was a knock at the door.
I put Fara's letter away and then answered it. The door was opened and Deanna's voice echoed.
'Excuse me, Master Rid. It's almost time for you and Master Cross to begin your training."
"Oh, yes. I'll be right there. "
After I replied, I immediately went to the training ground with Deanna.
◇
When I arrived at the training ground, Cross and Capella were already there, and I approached them quickly.
"Sorry, Cross, did I keep you waiting?"
"No, , I just arrived and had a chat with Capella about various things."
Cross bowed to me, looked up, and shifted his gaze from me to Capella.
Capella was expressionless, but he too bowed to me, exuding a slightly cheerful atmosphere.
"I heard that Cross had been to Renalute before when he was an adventurer, so we had a little chat.'
Really?" Cross, you've been to Renaloute, right? By the way, have you visited other countries as well?"
I responded to Capella, and shifted my gaze to Cross .
Cross scratched his cheek a little embarrassed.
"I guess so. I have been to all of the neighboring countries of Magnolia, although I have not crossed the ocean as you would expect. That experience was one of the factors that led me to join the Knights of Bardia."
Oh, then, next time, I would like to hear about the various countries you have visited.
I had a look of admiration in my eyes when I heard his words.
I had heard that he was an adventurer before he joined the Knights of Bardia, but I had no idea that Cross had visited so many countries.
Cross smiled happily at my words.
"Hmmm, okay. I will tell you more about that next time. But today, we are going to train you in a practical battle using a combination of "magic barrier" and "martial arts". shall we?"
'Yeah, let's gove it a try ."
After doing some preparatory exercises, Cross and I moved to the middle of the training grounds and faced each other face to face, Cross with his wooden sword and me with mine.
"We will be doing practical training in magic and martial arts, but before that, there is a 'technique' I would like to show you. Please attack me once with your magic."
"......? Okay, but isn't it dangerous?"
Cross's words make me doubtful, but he looks at me with a wry smile on his face.
'. Oh, just be sure to use moderate power and tell me spell name when you shoot.'
"Okay, I'll shoot it . ...... fire spear ."
I nodded and, looking at him confidently, held out one hand and chanted the
spellname.
The moment you do that, a "fire spear" will be generated from my hand and fly straight at Cross.
But Cross didn't avoid it and faced the flying spell with his wooden sword at the ready.
Is he really going to try to hit it? Just when I was worried, Cross let out a yell.
"Oh!"
Cross cut off my flying spell with his wooden sword the moment it entered the gap between us.
The magic that was sliced away disappeared on the spot.
However, his wooden sword does not seem to have a single scratch on it.
I was shocked at the instantaneous event that happened before my eyes, and my eyes were shining with excitement.
'......⁉ No way ‼ Eh, what did you just do⁉?"
'Hmmm, as you see, Master Rid. I cut the spell. I will now teach you what I just did.
Is such a thing possible to "cut a spell"⁉ But Cross actually showed me how he cut my "fire spear" with a wooden sword by using the " skill" he said.
In other words, he must be using some kind of way.
And he is willing to teach me how to do it.
I couldn't contain my excitement at this new " skill," so I ran up to him and gave him a big smile.
"Really⁉ Are you really going to teach me that skill? If it's a joke, I'll never, never forgive you."
'Of course, I won't lie to you. But may I ask you to step away for a moment so I can explain how it works?"
"What? Oh, yes. Excuse me."
I was so close to the cross that I moved away from him a little, blushing a little from embarrassment due to my overexcitement.
Then I saw him looking at me with interest.
What's wrong?
" What's wrong? Do I have something on my face?"
"Oh, no. I just thought that up close, you have a really nice face, Master Rid".
"What? ......⁉ Well, do you think so......?
I felt my face heat up with embarrassment at the unexpected words of Cross.
He smiled kindly at me.
"Your hair color is like Rainer's, but your face looks a lot like Nanalee's."
"Uh-huh. I'm glad you said that. Thank you. ......"
I had never really thought about whether I had inherited the good qualities of my father and mother, but it makes me very glad to hear that.
I couldn't help but smile and say "ehehe".
I remembered that Cross has a kid, too, right? I asked him about his kid.
ome to think of it, Cross has a child, doesn't you?
As soon as he heard my words, Cross had a big smile on his face, his voice, and he said in a loud, high voice.
"I have a daughter the same age as Meldy, and she's just like her mother, and she's ...... very cute, .......'
"I see."
The cross face is like a different person, and the face is full of joy, and he can't stop talking about his daughter.
I was so impressed with him that I couldn't stop him from talking about his daughter, but since I had asked him about her, I listened to him brag about her for a while.
