I took the boy to the health clinic at the academy. There was a young bespectacled doctor.
Filia:"Excuse me, Instructor Alneir."
I greeted instructor Alneir who was reading some files on his desk. Instructor Alneir works as a doctor at this academy. Aside from being a doctor, she also occasionally teaches health and recovery magic classes.
He looked up and was a little surprised to see Khaim hovering behind me. He immediately stood up and saw how he was.
Alneir:"What is this?. His body was exhausted and seemed to suffer from mild hypothermia."
Instructor Alneir touched the fur coat I wrapped around the boy's body and grabbed it for a while.
Alneir:"Well, this coat is quite warm and slightly relieves hypothermia in this child. But, this child still needs to rest more and get further treatment. Actually, what's going on?."
Instructor Alneir looked at me and asked. I just explained what happened to this child briefly and asked that this child be taken care of first before I left. Today I had other plans, so I immediately went to the arena.
Ilma: "Daughter, why don't you cure her with magic, isn't that faster?."
Filia: "The child is not only injured or exhausted by the body, but mentally too tired from a lot of pressure and thoughts, so I think rest is the best way to recover from it."
Ilma:"So it's like that."
Arriving at the arena, there were already two little girls facing each other with swords. One of the girls had a higher and lean posture. His hair was short and fiery red. The other girl was an ordinary-looking girl, but there was a kind of firmness on her face.
They were Liris and Stern who were practicing swords. Their movements were much smoother than the last time I saw them. From the memories Frey gave me, I knew that they often practiced together. In fact, sometimes Liris would take the initiative to ask me to give them a clue.
Filia:"You're getting better."
Lyric:"Your Majesty."
Stern:"Daughter."
The two of them saluted me respectfully. Currently, Stern has officially become one of the special training knights of the House of Rosenfield. If one day he graduates from this academy, he will instantly become a Rosenfield family knight who instantly works under my hands.
Philia:"The movement of your swords has become more and more subtle."
Lyric:"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty. Practice with talented people, and in addition to the advice you give, I can grow faster."
Stern:"T, thank you, Princess."
Phile:"No need to think about it. So, did you guys find any problems during the training?."
Liris:"I seem to have a little difficulty in mastering the sword techniques you teach."
Stern:"Hmm... That, I still don't understand what Sword intent means."
I started to help them deal with the problems they encountered in training. Actually not too difficult. Liris talent is very strong for swordsmanship, in fact she can easily understand the sword techniques I teach, it's just that she has difficulty in controlling the internal mana in her body, it's just that, so that it would make the sword technique imperfect or even fail. I just need to teach him which controls to master sword techniques more easily.
And as for Stern, the Sword Intent itself I cannot explain. He could only learn it and strengthen his feelings towards the sword slowly. The more he fought and interacted with the sword, then his sword intent would also become increasingly stronger. Merely, Stern had a heart that was too soft, so the sword intent only felt faint.
Philia:"Stern, in order to understand sword intent, then your heart must also be a sword."
Stern:"Heart of the sword?."
Filia:"Straight, straight, cold, calm, and sharp. Make your heart into the sword itself. Your mind will only be fixed on the sword, and you are the sword."
I only know what Sword intent is, but I can't really understand it. After all I don't have a sword intent, so I only know a little from some players who master the sword intent.
There were two types of sword intents in this world, namely: Innate Sword Intent and True Sword Intent. Innate sword intent was a Sword intent that had been in possession since birth. The owner of this sword intent only needed to understand the sword intent to be able to use it. And belonging to Stern, is this kind of sword intent.
While True Sword Intent was a sword intent that was not born naturally. Those who had sword intent like this were people who had devoted almost their entire lives to swordsmanship, and that person had already comprehended swordsmanship very deeply. In other words, this type of sword intent would only appear after a very hard training. Just like a sword that must be forged in high temperatures and hit with a hard hammer to become sharp. That was why this sword intent was named as true sword intent.
Throughout the game Alterion, a lot of debate about these two sword intents. There are those who consider that the Innate sword intent is more noble, there are also those who consider that true sword intent is more Orthodox because it must be obtained by working hard which is more in accordance with the sword that must be forged first.
Well, that debate has nothing to do with me. After all, I also did not master the sword intent.
With the «Weapon God» title I have, I don't need to deepen my training on the use of certain weapons. The final evolution of this Weapon Master had an extremely frightening effect. This title can turn my job into a job that matches the weapons I use. For example, when I use the wand of the necromancer, I will also become a necromancer without having to study the job of the necromancer. Because of this job, the twelve constellations armor is perfect for me.
I kept looking and occasionally gave hints in Liris and Stern's practice. When I saw that their breathing had started to weigh, I gave them a command to rest and recover stamina before continuing the exercise.
They both trained really hard. Although this is a good thing, but if you train too hard, it will actually cause bad effects for their bodies. So, after accompanying them to practice for a few more hours, I stopped the practice.
Lyric:"Your Majesty, thank you for your teaching today."
Stern:"I'm also very grateful."
They both bowed while thanking me.
Filia:"No need to think about."
I turned around and left together with Ilma. But when I was leaving, I remembered something.
Filia:"Oh right, if you're interested, maybe you can accompany me to tea in the cafeteria. And also, please bring a child who is being cared for in the infirmary."
I'm sure the kid should have woken up. After all, with his strong endurance, he was definitely able to recover quickly.
Ilma:"Daughter, it seems that you care a lot about that child. What's up?."
As I was walking down a hallway with Ilma, she suddenly asked me. Wh why?. I don't understand either. I just care a little, maybe?!.
Filia:"Grad... I don't know, maybe I'm a little unwilling to waste talent. Yeah, it must be like that..."
Ilma:"Oh, I understand."
I arrived at the cafeteria. Although many students were not in the academy, but the cafeteria was still quite crowded with children enjoying food while chatting with friends.
Nima:"Miss Filia, are you going to order something?."
A servant girl immediately approached me and asked respectfully.
Filia:"I'll order later, I'm still waiting for some friends."
Nima:"Understand. If you need anything, you can call me right away."
Philia:"Yes."
Nima turned around and left to serve the other customers. The girl seems to have grown. She wasn't as nervous as the first time I met her. By the way, the tea leaves I ordered for my restaurant are of good quality and many customers from various circles love it.
While waiting for them to come, I sat by the window and took out a book to read.
.....
Health room...
When I woke up, I found myself lying on a soft bed. And....
What is...!!!
My entire body besides my eyes, was all covered by bandages. What, what's going on?!.
"Oh, are you awake?."
Suddenly a female voice came from behind the curtain. Soon, the curtain was revealed by a hand that looked like a woman's hand with small fingers.
A woman wearing glasses walked in with a smile. He came up to me and nodded when he saw me.
Capacity:"Hmm..Emm...?!"
It was very difficult for me to speak because my mouth was wrapped in a thick bandage. Even I might be able to die of suffocation if this goes on.
Alneir: "Your skin has mild necrosis due to cold temperatures, so I wrapped your body in a bandage so that the wound does not become infected."
He spoke while getting rid of the bandages on my face, making me able to take a breath of relief.
Alneir:"Of course you can. But, I haven't used bandages in a long time, so I've kind of missed the sensation of wrapping around others."
Sunday!!. Is this instructor really a doctor?!.
Khaim:"Can this bandage be removed. I can't move."
Alneir:"Are you sure?."
Khaim:"Yeah. I'm so sure."
Alneir:"Well, since you're healed, it's okay to take off the bandage. But, are you really sure?."
Khaim:"Yes, I'm very sure."
Alneir: "Darling, though this bandage is very quality and comfortable when used to wrap the wound."
Although Instructor Alneir spoke a lot, but he took off the bandage wrapped around me honestly. His movements were very fast and smooth, reflecting his experience as a medical personnel who had already plunged into the battlefield.
Right now, my body is almost naked. Only simple shorts cover the vital parts.
Khaim:"It looks like there's no wound."
My body is completely fine.There are only a few old scars left.
Alneir:"Of course. I've healed him with magic."
Then, why should I be bandaged if the wound has healed?!. Instructor Alneir really had a very strange personality.
After getting dressed, I sat down in front of the instructor Alneir who gave me his next instruction.
Alneir: "You better stop practicing in the air outside in thin clothes, or it will be bad for your body in the future. If it wasn't for Miss Filia bringing you here and giving you a fur coat, maybe you'd freeze to death. And if it doesn't die, very lucky if you can use internal mana again."
Khaim:"I understand, but..."
But I can't. Even while training hard, I was still far from the expectations of my late parents, then, what happens if I do not practice?!. My dream is going to get further and it might disappear. That's what I'm afraid of.
Suddenly the shadow of a beautiful silver-haired girl appeared in my head. Her warm words without any humiliation, made me feel a little calm. Then, I also remembered the words he said, that he could help me.
Whether what he said was true or not, maybe I can see it later.
Capacity:"Emm... Instructor, it was... lady who brought me here, where is she?!."
I wonder if what he said back then was earnest or just wanted to comfort me. I wanted to ask him directly, but I didn't know where to find him.
Alneir:"Oh?. You mean Miss Filia?."
Khaim:"Yes."
Alneir:"I don't know. Although I told you, but you probably won't be able to see him."
Is it so hard just to meet a student?!. After all judging from his appearance, he was probably a high-ranking noble. It's only natural that I can't see him. It's been so incredible that a noble would talk to an ordinary student like me. What's more, I was a student with very low grades, completely unworthy of attention.
Khaim:"The structure, if you may know, which family is the lady from?."
Alneir:"Which family?. She is Filia Rosenfield, the eldest daughter of the House Of Rosenfield."
King:"Rosenfield!!."
Who does not know the noble house. The name Rosenfield is a name that even three-year-olds know. The story of the heroism of the Rosenfield family in the war on the peninsula Luk and Padang Haruhara is already very famous, and even included in the story of children. In addition, the Rosenfield family is also a family that always produces the best knights.
It can be said, in addition to being a royal knight, being a knight of the House Of Rosenfield is the dream of many knights.
Because it was only natural that the Instructor said I might not be able to see him. It makes complete sense.
Geck... Geck... Geck...
"Excuse me."
As I sighed in regret for not being able to meet her, I suddenly heard a knock from the door followed by the voice of a girl.
Alneir:"Log in."
The door slowly pushed open. I could see a bright red-haired girl coming into the room with one other girl. They were wearing the white uniform of the Student Committee with swords on its waist.
Typical red hair, she's an elf race?. Reportedly, only one Flame Elf was in this academy. He was a low grade first year' student who managed to defeat middle grade students and nearly burned the entire arena in that match. The fire rose, Liris.
And next to her, the girl who looked ordinary, but with those gentle eyes, she was Stern, she was, one of the best students in the academy and has been recruited as a direct apprentice knight by the Rosenfield family's first daughter. The news was so crowded at the academy, that's what made me instantly recognize it.
He also had a terrible record in combat. He managed to defeat many middle-class students with his refined and graceful movements in the fight. He is called the sword dancer.
I guessed it, the students who entered the student committee, they were humanoid monsters.
Alneir:"Can I help you?."
Stern & Liris:"Instructures!."
The two of them entered and gave a greeting to instructor Alneir.
Liris: "Instructures, I'm asked to bring a child in the infirmary to see His Majesty if the conditions permit."
Alneir:"Oh, then, you mean, maybe this kid."
They both immediately looked at me. Looking at me to the right and to the left, up and down, as if they were saying "What kind of strange creature is this" in his eyes. This feeling, is really uncomfortable. But it was all just a glance and they immediately hid his expression.
Liris:"Let's go, don't make His Majesty wait too long."
I didn't know what they wanted, but I subconsciously followed him. Maybe this is my chance to meet him.
Stern:"Then the instructor, we'll excuse you."
Alneir:"Wait!."
The instructor stood up from his chair and took out a fur coat from the hanger, then handed it to Liris.
Alneir:"This is Miss Philia's coat, please give it back to her."
Lyric:"I understand. Excuse me, please."
I'll follow them right out of the room. I wanted to ask what happened, but we just kept quiet along the way. The direction we were going was the direction of the academy cafeteria. That place is very familiar to me. The food there was cheap and delicious, but while there, I could only buy a piece of dry bread to save money.
Inside the cafeteria, many well-dressed and well-groomed children were eating or chatting casually with others. The view is peaceful, but the center of attention is always one of the tables by the window.
The silver hair that fluttered was blown by the cold wind, like a very beautiful strand of silver thread. The smiling little face while reading the book, illuminated by the light from the window, gave off the illusion as if a snow fairy was revealing herself. He was like a jewel that absorbed all the surrounding light, making all the other colors drown and gloomy.
Many students and schoolgirls were looking at her, but the girl ignored all views and focused on the book she was holding.
Unknowingly, I stopped my steps and focused my gaze on her. As if sensing my gaze, he lifted his head and smiled gently at me.
Plaque...!
Suddenly a slap hit my shoulder, got me back to reality. I turned my head and saw Liris eyes looking at me eerily.
Liris:"Remove your sight from His Majesty."
I just nodded and went to follow her to approach Miss Filia.
(The end of this chapter.)
See you in the next update.
