𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝟏𝟕.𝟏: 𝐀 𝐂𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐨’𝐬 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐞 𝐄𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞

“Attention, everyone!”

ㅤ

It’s been a few weeks since we were summoned to another world.

Today, as we trained as usual, we were gathered by the order of our knight commander, Ivy-san.

To be honest, I was relieved to take a break from Carpaccio’s passionate instruction. . .

And then, Ivy-san began to speak in front of us.

ㅤ

“First of all, let me say this.

Your growth has been remarkable.

Especially Yuma and a few others, who could easily perform on the battlefield if their level was raised.

Your strength has come not from your power as heroes, but from your own efforts.

You can be proud of that.”

ㅤ

Upon hearing this, most of my classmates relaxed their faces.

Of course, it’s nice to be praised for your own efforts.

I’m happy too.

Well, according to Carpaccio, even if I raise my level, I’ll only have the same status as an ordinary soldier!

But it’s amazing to think that I can compete with professional soldiers after just a few weeks of training.

Yes, let’s think positively.

. . .I feel like I’m starting to be influenced by Carpaccio’s ideology.

ㅤ

“As the hope of the world, the day will come when the people of the country will see you.

So, everyone has been waiting for this!

We will begin training for the mastery of true equipment from today!”

[Alright!]

ㅤ

With Ivy-san’s words, everyone’s tension rose at once.

Of course, I’m one of them.

As a man, I still admire that cool technique!

My eighth-grade syndrome is acting up!

On the other hand, the girls’ tension isn’t that high.

Apparently, there are few girls who understand this eighth-grade syndrome.

ㅤ

“Now, let me explain briefly about true equipment again.

True equipment is a unique skill that can only be acquired after birth, and at the same time, it is a skill that everyone has the potential to learn.

Its nature varies greatly.

Even those who have the same true equipment skills have completely different shapes and effects depending on the individual.

. . .Well, even though there is a possibility that everyone can learn it, only a very few can actually master true equipment.

But you have the power of heroes.

You might be able to do it.”

ㅤ

After saying that, Ivy-san said, “Well then, let me show you an example again,” and held out her hand in front of her.

As this line suggests, Ivy-san had shown her equipment form before.

As a result, the motivation of the boys’ training increased dramatically.

ㅤ

“Give us victory――[Til Fang]!”

“Wooooo!”

ㅤ

When the golden knight sword, which was this person’s true equipment, appeared in Ivy-san’s hand, the boys cheered.

Even Shindou’s eyes were shining.

As expected, true equipment are cool!

ㅤ

“Well, I’ve shown it before, but this is my true equipment, Til Fang.

In addition to the explosive enhancement of all true equipment’s common stats, it has a unique ability, the dedicated effect of greatly increasing the stats of all allies, called ‘Winner’s Blessing.’

I don’t mean to brag, but I’m pretty confident that it’s a very powerful true equipment!”

ㅤ

Ivy-san had a smug look on her face!

Well, beautiful people are beautiful no matter what face they make.

Ivy-san, whose nose is sticking out, feels like a disappointing person and I feel close to her.

ㅤ

“In this way, if you can learn true equipment, you can achieve a significant power-up.

After all, true equipment are your true power.

It’s like a lifelong partner.

And it will be a great power in the fight against the Demon Lord.

Now, let’s start the special training right away!

Be prepared, because I’m going to be tough!”

[Yes!]

ㅤ

And so, our true equipment training began.

I’m looking forward to it!

My true equipment, just for me!

ㅤ

As we started our training, I, no, we, happily fantasized about our unseen partners.
