"You'll be tired, Ekaterina. Be ready for tomorrow and rest in your room today."

As soon as he left the Great Hall, Alexei told him, Ekaterina shook her head.

"No, brother. I'm fine... just"

"Just?"

"I thought about it. I'm weak..."

The sword was heavy. Ah!

No, I take it for granted that it's heavy. Eighty to ninety centimeters of steel across the blade.

But I was shocked because I was stunned by the weight more than I expected, trying to hold a sword with a sense of previous life.

I think I could have held it a little easier in my previous life. No, I never had a sword in my previous life, because I should have had more arm strength. Not only did I have arm strength, but I also had better health in my previous life. The middle and high school club was a choir, so I had to build my strength. I did run-ins and stuff before the tournament.

... There are aspects of choir and brass that are not satisfactorily handled by the Ministry of Culture. Yeah.

I endured black labor since joining the company because of my physical strength, and I couldn't get out of it and died of overwork.

"That's... natural. I shouldn't have Yurnova's daughter, something heavy... sorry I couldn't do it."

"I'm sorry, etc. I just want to be a little more physically and mentally fit as a lady of the Knights."

It's a life I can't think of with my strength or my arm, right? I couldn't even go out when I was locked up, and I pulled myself off that condition, and I just studied after remembering my memories of my previous life......

also, you should do something about it some more, right? I have this event coming up next year.

"Brother, I'm going to start moving something. I promise you, I will only do what you think is appropriate for Yurnova's daughter. Would you forgive me?

... I remember the other day, I decided to take advantage of the sickness and weakness setting in order not to be told if I wanted to be an empress or something.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. In a body like this, you can catch a cold or something all the time and worry about your brother and annoy him. Sick and weak only in your brother, actually a healthy child. This is the best!

Yeah. That's what I'm supposed to attend this Duke's mansion every week, and I want to start learning to be physically fit to the extent that I'm not crazy about horseback riding, voice music, or being an aristocratic courtier.

"If you promise me you won't be forced, of course I don't mind. I think it's a very good thing."

Take Ekaterina's hand, Alexei smiles. Ekaterina realizes once again the hardness of his hands working out every day.

"Even though your brother is busy, he works out every day and he's fine."

"The magic of nobility is supposed to protect the people from warcraft and other things. Besides, it is now our duty to train so that we can provide force at all times, even when it comes to peace.

... Oh yeah, I want to show you something. If you're not really tired, will you come with me for a little while? "

That being said, Alexei took her sister in a large room with a number of weapons. Armor is lined up and spears and battle axes are placed neatly on a storage platform in sufficient intervals to be able to handle weapons differently. And on the wall, there was a sword hanging on one side.

Alexei took the sword that was adorned in its center. This is a stunning shake with precious stones on the head and beautiful finishing touches on the sheath.

"It is Lord Sergei's sword of love, passed down to my house from generation to generation"

Whoa... the first sword. That is.

The heirloom sword!

Occasionally I heard about the heirloom's treasure knife in the news of my previous life, but it was in an analogy like 'Prime Minister's heirloom's treasure knife, dissolution general election'. But is this an ancestral, authentic heirloom sword? Does the brother of the ancestral tundelle possess the treasure knife of the ancestral family?

Now, the Duke family, which has lasted four hundred years since its founding, is amazing.

And Alexei offered the sword to Ekaterina for each sheath.

"Take it."

"Yes."

All right, take it in the mood.

Ekaterina opened her eyes.

"Well, brother, it's light!

What? This is much lighter than the knights sword I just had.

No way, Bamboo Light?

As I could see I suspected, Alexei pulled the blade out of his sledge sheath when he received the sword from Ekaterina's hand.

After four hundred years, the white radiant body will still be exposed. More than the swords of the earlier knights, it's more like a big swing and a heavy weight.

"It is said that this sword is light when it is held by those who draw the blood of the Yurnova family, and that it feels heavier than a normal sword when it is held by non-bloodliners"

"Wow! There is such technology."

"In fact, I wonder if sensing someone with more than some magic will activate lightening. There will be rainbow stones in the pattern, there is a theory that rainbow stones are minerals condensed by the magical powers of nature. I guess that reaction triggers it. There is a legacy in the Astra Empire that we were able to determine parent-child relationships, but it's hard to imagine we could do that just with a sword"

"I think you're right."

Um, romantically unfortunate, but logical persuasion like your brother. No, it's just amazing how lightweight a sword can be.

And yet, brother, it's also a painting to have a sword! Sabel has a beautiful look that resembles a Japanese sword. About a third of the tip is double-edged, like the cutting-edge blades found on the old type of Japanese knife. Yet unlike the Japanese knife, it is basically handled with one hand. What a lovely diagram of your brother gently placing a sabel with one hand.

Alexei laughed all the time when she noticed her sister's gaze as she saw it as love. Step away from Ekaterina and set up your sword.

I looked at the space in front of me.

(Ah)

Ekaterina opens her eyes. I think I saw the warcraft that appeared in that training ground in the space where Alexei looked.

Byuo! And he had a sword wind, and the sword was swung down.

A sharp flash of it snapped off the neck of the Phantom Warcraft.

"Well, brother, you're brilliant!

Unexpectedly Ekaterina applauds.

"When that warcraft appeared, with this sword in your brother's hand, you could take it away."

"... you get it very well. Yeah, now I assumed that warcraft."

"I knew your brother's side would be the most secure. I know exactly what you mean."

To my sister's praise, Alexei smiles.

And I dropped my eyes on the sword in my hand and squealed.

"I am a knight, not a knight..."

Alexei then poked one knee in front of Ekaterina. Give away your sword.

"If there is any imminent danger to you, I will defeat you as a single sword, forsaking both the Duke's position and the position of Commander. I have lived and will live for the Duke's house, but only because you are so important that even that house can be abandoned.

My lady Ekaterina. Will you accept my sword? "

"Brother......"

In unexpected words, Ekaterina opened her eyes.

I don't know what to do, brother.

A super good-looking guy in a dust strike wants to give me a sword or something.

Die. This is adorable. Die.

Thoughts are coming to adore and kill me.

No, that's not the problem. Don't be adorable, yourself!

"Yes, you shouldn't. Your brother is in charge. As my sister, I am in a position to serve your brother."

"I am the incomplete Lord. I don't feel like I could live without you, even though the neighbors and the inhabitants would support me so much. If you really think of me, please... take this sword."

Let it go, don't look up like you're hanging up, brother! Because I adore and die instantly!

Thoughtfully, Ekaterina received the sword. Put your torso on Alexei's shoulder.

"I, Ekaterina, receive the sword of Alexei, Duke of Yurnova, with love and loyalty. Thank you for your love and asylum, and I hope that we will continue to support each other."

Hit him gently in the shoulder.

When he held the sword of the family heirloom as he had done, Ekaterina returned the sword to Alexei's hand.

... But even if Alexei receives the sword, Ekaterina still keeps her hands off the sword.

"Brother, please stand up"

When Alexei stood up prompted by her jokingly smiling sister, Ekaterina took her sword from her brother's hand, this time on her knees.

"Ekaterina......?

"Brother, I am such a weakness, but I want to protect you.

Therefore, let me give you my sword from my brother. "

I'm also happy to have you exhausted from your reckoning, but you're going to exhaust your reckoning from this way!

By my definition, yes!

"Ekaterina, but... because you are your lady"

"Your brother gave me his sword, even though he was a knight. Dear brother, with love and loyalty, I offer this sword. Think of it as my soul and don't take it?

Looking up at his brother, Ekaterina smiles.

It was an Alexei who seemed wolfish, but he took the sword from his sister's hand as he had decided to. Put your sword on the shoulder of Ekaterina, who drowned this.

"Alexei, Duke of Yurnova, receives the sword of his beloved sister Ekaterina with respect for Our Lady. I thank Ekaterina for her devotion and pledge to love and protect her forever"

Lightly hitting the shoulder with a flat sword - should.

But it wasn't quite there, and when I thought my brother's hand touched Ekaterina's cheek, who looked up in wonder, Alexei, bent down, mouthed at his temples.

……………………

Ahhhhhh.

Live! Come on! Get back on your feet, myself!

While I was thinking something like that, Alexei took my hand and Ekaterina is up.

"Dear brother... as was done earlier, is it not different from your practice?

"I'm sorry. But I can't do it without hitting you. If you hit such a luxurious shoulder with such a martial arts thing, it's bound to break. If that happens, my heart will be shattered"

He tells me like I was in trouble, and I'm about to lose my soul.

He said he was cute for his one-eyed cool beauty shapes. He turned to the mountains of the Alps and said, "Aren't you cute, Chickshaw! 'I want to scream so badly! I don't know why it's the Alps!

What are you talking about? Myself!

……

Asking him to bow his head with a hand gesture, Alexei seems to have thought he was about to sneeze his hair again, smiling bitterly and bowing his head.

Placing her hand on that shoulder, Ekaterina mouthed Alexei's temples.

I did it!

How dare you take your heart out for a bite, Ekaterina smiles softly.

"I heard you hit me on the shoulder to carve your vows deep into your heart so you won't forget. If that were the case, this one would be more memorable. Your brother created the Duke of Yurnova's house."

"If you liked me, I think I created something good."

In response, Alexei breaks his face.

"It's unprecedented that your lady offers her sword to the knights. But it's your kindness, which I always try to give more than I can give, that's really expensive and noble.

Ekaterina, you're the best lady I've ever met. "
