“Noisy…”

Unlike the school in the territory, this is an aristocratic academy.

It’s not just a place to study, it’s a place to learn social skills and manners.

They are not allowed to run or raise their voice.

If the teacher in charge finds out, they’ll be reprimanded.

In spite of that, the boys have been noisy for some reason.

From what I heard, it seems that someone is coming to the training ground…

“I wonder who’s coming?”

“It’s at the training ground, right? I haven’t heard that knights from other kingdoms are coming, so I guess it’s from the central army?”

The girls don’t seem to make a fuss, but they seem to be interested as well.

“Ojou-sama.”

Elena approached with a brisk walk.

She shouldn’t enter the classroom unless there’s a very good reason, but what’s wrong with her face?

I can see how confused she is…

“The former duke and Sera are in the training ground.”

…ah.

“Come to think of it, he said he was going to take Sera with him yesterday… so is this commotion caused by her?”

The aristocratic academy is located on the grounds of the royal palace.

So are the Knights’ Headquarters and training ground.

They are next to each other, and the training center can be seen from inside the academy.

The fact that Sera came probably means that she is testing the [Scarlet Bee’s Needle].

Some students starting from Baron Households should possess bestowed items, but it’s not something that can be seen casually, let alone a child using it, so I understand why they’re making a fuss about it.

“Well, whatever. Elena, let’s go.”

Although she’s with Ojii-sama, I cannot leave her alone too much.

“Seliana-san, where are you going?”

“To the training ground. It seems that the child that my grandfather and I are taking care of has come, so I thought I’d show my face.”

I answered a friend’s question.

After hearing that, the girls looked at each other.

It seems like they’re interested, should I invite them?

“If you don’t mind, would you like to join us?”

“If you insist. Please let us join you.”

Others also gathered around recommending themselves, and in no time there were about 10 people.

The dungeon in the royal capital is very dangerous, but there are always knights patrolling the surrounding area, so there are no monsters or bandits that would appear.

At that time, the corpses are also processed, so undead will not spawn.

Ah… that’s why there was such a fuss the other day…

Outside, of course, the public order in the city is also good.

The knights of the kingdom are always on patrol as part of their training, so even if there are petty crimes such as theft, serious crimes such as murder and kidnapping rarely occur.

For better or worse, it’s a city without stimulation.

Everyone must have been bored.

I could understand my grandfather and his friend’s feelings.

◇ 

When we arrived at the training ground, among the several targets lined up, there was only one that has been shattered into pieces.

A small figure is standing in front of it.

It’s still far away, but I can tell see the maid outfit and red boot.

It’s Sera.

“Well, it’s Chief Commander József-sama”

“It’s true! Royal Guards Captain Xellos is here as well!”

A few people, including my grandfather, have gathered a little away from Sera, but as everyone said, there are even the chief commander of the knight order and the captain of the royal guards.

Putting aside the chief captain, there are even people from different factions of House Müller.

I don’t mean to criticize the relationship between friends, but… is it a good idea to have them witness the testing of the bestowed item?

What exactly are they doing.

“Ojii-sama.”

“Hmm? O-Ohh… Seliana?”

My grandfather and the people around him seemed a little awkward.

They must be aware that it’s a violation of manners.

“It looks like you’re having a lot of fun?”

“A-Ahh. Umu… I saw a familiar face, so I couldn’t help it…”

“That’s all very well.”

More on that later.

For now, I should call Sera.

“Sera.”

No response.

She looks down in front of the collapsed target, but she doesn’t look injured.

Is she thinking about something?

“Sera… Sera!”

Can’t she hear me?

“Sera.”

“Wait a minute.”

When I approached her and tried to call her strongly, she didn’t seem to notice who was calling her.

It cannot be helped.

“Sera.”

When I called her while pulling her ear, she finally turned her face towards me.

“…isn’t it Ojou-sama? What are you doing?”

Really, the same goes for Ojii-sama, but this girl is also troublesome.
