I’ll Live My Second Life! - Chapter 170

170

　At the end of the training, Fee was in the eastern yard of the castle.

　I've been scouting several times, so I know the location of most of the buildings.

　The specialty of the eastern garden of the royal palace is the "unused tower".

　The tower, which was built in the era of the king, was built to imprison high-ranking political prisoners, but the predecessor king was not used sweetly by aristocrats and relatives, and it was in the era of King Roy. It has never been used since.

　Actually, it seems that it has been used only once, but the situation is unknown due to rumors.

　Well, I have nothing to do with today's business, so Fee passed by.

　The eastern dormitory is also the time when the training is over, so boys are wandering near the eastern dormitory.

　The target person for Fee was found.

　A serious boy with a neat face and glasses on his silky black hair.

"Persiroo!"

　Fee approaches, calling his name.

　Percil turned around and looked at me.

"Hmm, you're sure. Was it Heath?"

"Yeah! That's right!"

　Apparently he remembered the name.

　Fee thought that he was a little happy to remember that he wasn't very active in sword games and wasn't at the venue very much (preached).

"I have something to talk about."

　When Fee said, Percil glanced behind him and said, "I don't mind, but can you wait a minute?"

　When Fee looked back, two apprentice knights in the eastern dormitory were looking towards Persil.

　As Percil walked towards you, they asked him something about the sword, and Percil actually waved a wooden sword to set an example. They swing their swords to imitate it, and Percil looks at it and points out what's wrong.

　A few minutes later, the two boys thanked Percil and left.

　Percil is back here.

"Sorry, let me wait"

"Yeah, that's okay. Persil teaches you the sword."

　Fee smiles and says so, and Percil nods without changing his expression.

"Oh, I think we all need to be stronger in your game. Of course, the instructors can teach us, but I think there are some things we can teach from our experience. Luca. And Ridill sometimes teach. "

"Hey, those two"

　Fee was a little surprised at the story and opened his eyes.

"So what is the matter?"

"Oh, I'm sorry. Is Persil a survival partner?"

"No, I haven't decided in particular."

"Then, there are people I want you to build in our dormitory."

　Fee looked up at Percil.

　Then about an hour later.

　At an affordable cafe in the castle town, Persil and Kuinu were seated in opposite seats like a matchmaking.

　There was also a terrace seat, and it was surrounded by the cool breeze around autumn.

　Fee, sitting in the middle, manages the two like Nico Nico and a matchmaker.

"Mr. Percil, this is Kuinu in the north dormitory. And Kuinu, this is Mr. Percil in the eastern dormitory --- I think you already know."

　It is natural.

　The appearance of Kuinu seemed awkward, and Persil had the usual calm expression.

“…………”

“…………”

　Silence flows at the table of three people.

　Eventually the waitress brought an order for three people.

　Tea was for Kuinu, a big parfait for Fee, and coffee for Percil.

"Wow, it looks delicious!"

　Fee shines when he sees the parfait, as if he had forgotten his purpose for a moment.

　Percil took a spoon and put five cups of sugar in his coffee.

　Kuinu puts milk and then puts his mouth in black tea.

　Fee chewed a nasty parfait spoon in his mouth and said that he remembered an important story --- he seems to have forgotten for a moment.

"Oh yeah. That's right. I think it's better to team up with Kuinu and Persil in the survival game. Probably the two are the top players."

"I see"

"..."

　Persil nods, and Kuinu is silent on the word.

　Persil's reaction may seem sarcastic to anyone other than him, but in his case, his voice and gestures were so plain that he didn't feel that way.

　He may be calmly analyzing his own ability and the difference with others.

"It's also the best division of roles. Kuinu is mobile, but he's not good at brain fighting, and Persil is good at planning strategies. I think he can be a good partner."

　Fee pushes the pair of Persil and Kuinu.

　In fact, it was expected that if Kuinu and Percil were paired, it would be a powerful and unrivaled pair.

“…………”

"Ah, maybe Kuinu is angry? I'm not saying that Kuinu is stupid. I think it's a good thing about Kuinu that the idea is simple."

　Fee to follow the silent Kuinu from a while ago.

　I also recommend Kuinu to Persil.

"Because it's a survival game, you may be worried about Kuinu's physical strength, but it's okay! Recently, long-distance results have improved! Envy!"

　Whether it's growth due to age, or because he was hit by a weakness in the game and wanted to improve, Kuinu has been getting stronger these days.

　It used to be a little better than Fee, but now it's competing with medium-sized Slad and Geese.

　It's grown so much in a short period of time, so it's likely to grow even more by the time of the survival game. Should boys be envious, or is Kuinu special? I'm at a loss as a fee.

　Anyway, he seems to be making an effort, and when he returned to his parents' house, he seemed to run. As a fee, it was a menu that would break my body if I was dating. It may be different from the nature.

　At the gathering at the cafe, Fee was talkative, probably because both Kuinu and Percil were reticent.

　After about 10 minutes, Persil puts down the coffee cup.

　And I stood up silently.

"Oh, Persil!"

　Fee makes a rushed face.

　But Persil's answer was different.

"I don't mind at all. If you pair with Kuinu, you'll almost certainly be able to win, but he doesn't seem to be enthusiastic."

　When Percil said so and looked at Kuinu, Kuinu turned away awkwardly again.

"Tell me if he's motivated. I'm always ready to work."

　With that said, Percil left.

　On the way back, Fee and Kuinu walk side by side.

"Do you hate teaming up with Percil?"

　Fee is also calmer than at the cafe, and listens while looking into Kuinu's face.

　I wondered if I was a little forcible.

“…………”

　Kuinu, on the other hand, was silent, but finally opened his mouth.

"Why ... I can't ..."

　To be honest, Kuinu was lonely.

　I am aware of it myself. That's why it was awkward to deal with Percil. Perhaps his emotions will be seen through, so he ...

　To be honest, I was shocked. What didn't you choose me as a pair ...

　If you choose, fight hard and protect yourself from the enemy. And even if I win the championship, I'll do my best to bring it to my hand.

　I wanted to overcome the stamina side that I was not good at, because I wanted to protect Heath.

　But I wasn't chosen ... I'm going to be an enemy ...

"I can't help it anymore"

　Fee smiles bitterly at Kuinu and beckons a little.

"I'll tell you the reason, so come over here."

　As Kuinu approached the words with confusion, Fee got closer.

　The heart of Kuinu will surely become.

　The two bodies come into close contact on an unpopular road.

"Kuinu ..."

　The next moment, Fee pulled out a wooden sword and fired a blow at Kuinu. A blow completely released from the blind spot, passing through the torso and aiming at the chin.

"...!"

　However, I avoided Kuinu.

　It was avoided.

　Moreover, with a considerable margin ---.

　Suddenly, blind spotted, and Fee's serious blow, he didn't even scratch.

　Kuinu is already away from a safe distance in an instant. No, it was the time for Kuinu to attack from here.

　If this was a fight, Fee's defeat would have already been decided.

　Nevertheless, their facial expressions were just the opposite.

　Kuinu looks really surprised at being attacked, and Fee looks calm as if he had predicted that he would be avoided.

"Because of this"

"eh……?"

"Kuinu is strong. To be honest, I don't feel like winning."

　Fee saw. The moment he avoided the attack, Kuinu held his arm in an attempt to counterattack.

"But that doesn't mean I can't give up. Survival is my strongest field. I'll do my best to defeat Kuinu with Gorumus. And I'll be proud of myself."

　Fee pointed at a wooden sword that could not reach Kuinu.

"That's why Kuinu should come to beat us seriously. Otherwise --- it's a break."

　Then Fee returns Kibisu and leaves Kuinu.

　Kuinu seemed to see him off, but Fee rushed back.

"Hi, Heath ...?"

"Oh, but the survival game is still a long way off, so I'm friends until then. Look, go home. Kuinu."

　After returning to his usual expression, Fee pulled Kuinu's arm and set out on his way back to the castle.

(Oh, I don't know about girls ...)

　Kuinu was a little nervous ...

　Fee looks up at the sky. A unique warm breeze patted his cheeks.

"The wind is damp. Heavy rain may come."

"No……"
