How a Former Pro Takes Advantage by Doing an Easy Job

Chapter 32



Chapter 32. I like female knights (4) Naturally, it has the effect of inducing only the direction so that thoughts do not go that way.

And the moment the two of them opened their hearts, my psychic work was complete.

I hope you don't feel sad about it.

forever for you and me

It's like some kind of insurance.

In return, I will definitely guide you.

As long as he's my escort, I plan to make sure he doesn't hear that he's weak anywhere.

At least I'll remodel it to the master level for sure.

....Ah, when I say this, I really look like a brute.

- Yasa's string -

Early dawn when the sun hasn't even risen yet.

“…prepare.”

Asha, who had just woken up from bed at the dormitory in the palace, quietly began preparing for work.

His eyes are half-closed as if he hadn't woken up, but his hands, as if he were accustomed to it, take off their pajamas and change into light armor worn when escorting or on duty in the royal palace.

During the mission, she offered to help the exclusive maid change into clothes, but she refused.

As long as it is not heavy armor, light armor worn on duty is sufficient.

.... In fact, there is something embarrassing about entrusting oneself to someone who is not familiar with the face, but I did not dare to show it.

It's just that it's not like a knight.

“…I have to hurry.”

The escort knight's morning is early.

It starts by looking after the master, who must be served for safety, even before he wakes up.

If necessary, an escort is also required at night.

In particular, the task of escorting the royal family is by no means formidable.

Originally... it wasn't an easy mission for a young knight like himself.

The moment she thought that far, Asha's hand stopped.

“Is it the prince’s escort?”

muttered involuntarily.

Then he shook his head as if to get rid of the useless thoughts.

It's not that I don't like the job at all.

Volunteering in the first place was Asha's own will.

“Is this really a mission that suits me…?”

Originally, it would be appropriate for a much stronger, older and more experienced knight to serve as an escort.

The lord she now serves, Arele Ernesia.

Although he was the youngest prince, even Asha, who had no interest in the rumors of others, had heard a lot of rumors about him.

Although he is not good at martial arts and magic, he shows a genius specializing in learning.

He hired alchemists to create all sorts of rare goods and led the kingdom's finances to become more abundant.

And... he brought the second princess, Kania Ernesia, the status of a princess, to the level of an aura expert in a short period of time with her own theory alone.

All of these are unbelievable rumors.

Asha didn't believe it was all true.

I wouldn't say anything even if I heard that I was disrespectful, but wouldn't believing it be a realistic reaction?

However, she has no choice but to admit her perception the moment she meets Arel, the culprit of the rumor.

he is real

‘I guess that's what a genius means.'

A young boy who is only 11 years old has a strange intelligence.

Even in the first interview, I felt the gaze as if I could see through the other person's inner side.

And just like the first impression, he is not an ordinary person.

According to rumors... no, it might be more than that.

So, I'm still not sure if this is the right job for me.

If someone grabs you by the collar and asks a question, you might hesitate for a moment to answer.

It's not that I'm not confident in my skills.

He worked hard to become stronger and reached Aura Prevention at the age of 21.

Even if you look at it objectively, wouldn't she definitely belong to a useful talent?

In addition, she is now training according to the theory taught by Arel, along with Seina, her escort knight.

It's only been about a month, but I'm sure I'm stronger than before.

It's not that I want to be particularly humble.

It's just that this concern is a personal gule.

Asha Pernille.

Now, no one will recognize the surname Pernil.

A common fallen aristocrat.

A family that was not such a wealthy aristocrat and lived quietly in a small countryside.

However, due to famine, the territory was destroyed in an instant by monsters that attacked it.

His father, the head of the family, passed away from the injuries he received then, and his mother and himself, who had just turned 14, were left.

And only a younger brother.

In such a situation, of course, Asha had no choice but to try to support the rest of her family.

It was at that time that I realized how cruel the world is.

After going through a downfall, all the aristocrats he had been in contact with turned their backs on him as if they had concocted it in advance.

I'm not even very naughty.

In the end, Asha volunteered for the knights.

Alaska had a talent for martial arts.

In addition, I am confident in my stamina because I ran and played in the countryside since I was young.

He was able to survive somehow just by sharpening his sword and spear in the Knights.

Originally, he was a low-level knight who worked in a small town not far from his hometown, but after awakening his Aura for the first time at the age of 18, he moved his affiliation to the Knights Order directly under the royal capital.

The 15th Knights Order directly under the Kingdom.

Among the knights stationed in the capital, it is a low-end knights enough to be called the weakest. That alone made me happy at the time.

In any case, as an Auror user, he was assigned to the capital.

My younger brother was also genuinely happy.

‘I didn't know then...

I didn't know the reality at that time.

Now, Asha just smiles bitterly.

The 15th Knights were, in a word, trash.

All the knights are not motivated.

They were the kind of people who spend a reasonable amount of time with the mindset that other knights will do all the important missions anyway.

Even worse was the knight commander.

I couldn't say it was worthy of an article at all.

Incompetent and neglectful in training, even at the age of 40, he is still just an aura beginner, garbage among garbage.

It's a common parachute greeting.

It didn't matter at all, but the problem was different.

All of a sudden, it became annoying that Asha's appearance was superior to others.

Even before the downfall, it was the kind of look that men and women alike would look back on if they occasionally went out to a nearby city.

Of course, that kind of appearance caught the eye of the knight commander.

The knight commander flirted with Asha almost every day.

And Asha's daily life for years has been to barely avoid his flirtation, resisting the desire to beat him.

‘It was really bad.'

If we ran into each other again now, then we might seriously consider cutting off the man's lower body.

In the midst of this, a telegram came down saying that they were looking for an escort for the youngest prince.

Asha half-desperately volunteered to be an escort driver.

I didn't think it would happen, to be honest.

In fact, the articles gathered at the interview were all outstanding.

Especially when I saw a muscular female knight who could have been 2m 30cm tall, I even felt a bit of envy.

I want to become strong like that myself.

How do I get those muscles?

‘I'm sure you have to be at that level to be selected as an escort knight, right?'

On the other hand, he doesn't look as strong as her on the outside.

It would be unsuitable as a knight.

In fact, at the time, I was almost obsessed with it.

Perhaps because of that, after being notified of the results, he doubted his own eyes.

He wondered what the youngest prince, Arell, had looked at and picked him for.

However, the master's decision should not be challenged.

Don't make any assumptions about his intentions.

There must be a deep meaning in choosing yourself.

Asha believed that.

Thanks to this, the salary has also increased significantly, and the life of my mother and younger brother in my hometown is better than before.

With a little more savings, he could send his younger brother to the academy in the capital.

I did it if I was grateful, there was no way I could complain.

I even felt grace.

‘I must repay this favor.'

Since I became an escort knight, I will serve him with all my might.

In case of emergency, he would throw away even his own life without hesitation.

With such an oath, Asha finished preparing and went to work.

- Seina goes to work -

Seina wakes up earlier than the scheduled time and is lightly warming up.

“Sissha? I feel pretty good today.”

For her, who does not use a sword and uses fighting as her main weapon, body care is equally important as sword care.

Because of her behavior, she feels like she could sleep late, but in reality she is more diligent than others.

Seina Garil has no knack.

At least she herself thinks so.

I'm not saying martial arts or anything like that.

It's saying something different.

Originally, her family has been doing mercenary work for generations.

Not only his family, but all the people in his hometown are mercenaries.

A village-based mercenary tribe that wandered around many countries without having citizenship in any particular country.

Her ancestors are said to have come from much further afield.

As proof of that, Seina's appearance is rather peculiar compared to the others here.

There have been no major wars in recent years, and of course, the income of mercenaries has also greatly decreased.

Seina's father decided to send Seina out of town because he thought that mercenaries would eventually fall.

At the time, the opposition of other adults was strong, but no one could stop him because he was so determined.

Besides, Seina didn't hate going out of town either.

So she volunteered for the knights.

Since I was raised to become a mercenary from a young age, I passed the training without any problems, and there was no great difficulty in becoming a knight.

However... it was a bit of a shock that the father who had made the decision to let Seina go outside had passed away.

It is said that her father, who was a mercenary but had a straight personality from the beginning, was at odds with the vicious lord.

And he was attacked by a man sent by a lord who had a grudge against his father, and died after suffering serious injuries.

‘...Well, I'm not in a position to say that.'

Seina also resembles her father.

It seemed to have been inherited by picking out the same straight and tactless points.

If there is something I don't like, I get emotional without even realizing it and my hands go out first.

Because of that, despite his excellent skills, he had quite a few accidents.

The most recent thing I've done is beat my superiors to dust.

‘...Well, I don't have any regrets, though.'

At the time, the boss was only frantic about promotion.

In the end, obsessed with his achievements, he even came up with the extreme idea of annihilating the poor villagers as bandits.

“Crazy bastard….

As soon as I heard that story, it was a feeling that jumped out.

In the end, Seina, who did not know that fact, smashed the door of his office at once and entered and beat him mercilessly.

Ironically, no one stopped Seina at the time.

It wasn't a good thing though.

There must have been another way to stop him.

In the end, he had no choice but to be transferred out of the process.

Fortunately, there were quite a few people who supported her, and it was not recorded in the records because it was a dishonorable incident from the point of view of the knights.
