𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝟏𝟒: 𝐃𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐲 𝐋𝐢𝐟𝐞. (𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝟐)

Now, I have breakfast alone, and a peaceful daily life has come.

Sword practice with Kukkoro-san has been added to my morning routine.

I’ve become able to have mock battles with wooden swords.

Practicing swordsmanship alone is surprisingly lonely.

Imperial-style swordsmanship seems to involve various things like long swords, sabers & shields, etc.

I wonder why? Is it a difference in iron processing technology and steel production capacity?

I asked Kukkoro-san a few questions.

I don’t understand well.

She said that a long sword will bend if not properly maintained.

It’s probably carburized.

What about armor?

If thin steel plates can be made, it would be quite powerful.

If it’s just thin stretched iron, there’s a chance of winning.

If you hit it with a spiked hammer, it will probably make a hole.

🩴

At the moment, I can’t win against Kukkoro-san in a sword fight.

If anything goes, I feel like I can win first. + I don’t feel like losing if it’s magic.

It seems that the goal of the Empire’s swordsmanship is to defeat the enemy in front of you with all your might.

They seem to be completely unable to deal with tricks, joint techniques & eye gouging, tripping, etc.

Kukkoro-san looks frustrated when she loses.

Yes, that’s the quality of a female knight.

Kukkoro-san said she was taught to withstand magic with armor.

Why are they so muscle-brained?

But it’s good information, if my firepower can penetrate a 10mm rolled steel plate, a mountain of imperial soldier corpses can be made.

After training, I heal Kukkoro-san’s injuries.

Of course, it’s a physical examination.

Uh-ho. So soft~.

The loli who brought water and a towel during the treatment stood with no highlights in her eyes.

“No, this is important for treatment!!”

I make an excuse.

“That’s right. Master’s nose is quite long.”

Kukkoro-san is cheeky.

The atmosphere gets bad with her prickly words.

The slaves look at me with cold eyes.

Oh, the atmosphere in the garden is the worst.

🩴

I teach Loli-san magic, but her magic power is low.

I had her read a scroll of storage magic that I copied onto ordinary paper as a test.

“Ah, um, I can’t read these characters.”

It seems she hadn’t learned the kingdom’s characters.

Vesta could read it, but it didn’t activate on normal paper.

It’s a waste, but when I soaked the normal paper in a potion and read it, it activated.

Vesta learned storage magic!!

But her magic power is so low that she can’t put anything more than a pocket in it!!

🩴

I wonder why?

You can do magic by spinning it around and letting it out, right?

No, wait. Don’t rush.

Maybe I can’t do it because I don’t know the trick.

Spin the dantian.

I put the loli maid on the table and lay her down.

“Marca, don’t move.”

“Y, yes.”

Something starts when a woman is put on a stand!!

I put my hand on her dantian and forcibly spin the magic power.

Yeah, it spins well.

There’s nothing wrong.

But it disperses as soon as I stop.

This won’t do.

I attack the dantian with various approaches.

Hore Hore Hore Ho~re!!

Gradually, the loli maid’s face becomes flushed.

Yeah! It feels good.

When I put magic power into it, the loli maid’s breath becomes rough and her fingertips, which are holding her skirt, turn white.

Now!! It’s the finish!

The loli convulses and stops moving.

“Huh? What’s wrong?”

When I talk to her, the loli is unconscious.

She’s breathing, so she’s not dead, but she seems to have fainted.

A black stain spreads on her deep navy blue long skirt.

The smell of urea spreads.

“Damn, I overdid it.”

I was scolded a lot later.
