I’ll Live My Second Life! - Chapter 198

　Crow was reading a gossip newspaper at the 18-knight corps waiting area.

　The paper contains rumors of the swelling that Austre nobles and ladies fell in love with, but Crow wasn't very interested in the content. However, since Crow himself is an aristocrat and knows the truth of the rumors that are written, he dimly thinks, "Don't write sloppy things."

　The point was to kill time.

　I'm reading gossip paper for the only reason that Crow's father and brother aren't as stiff as the newspapers they've always read.

(Am free……)

　With that in mind, I stopped reading even the cover of the gossip paper and was full of tables.

A person came into the waiting area with a small footstep.

　Crow quickly knew who the footsteps were. Heath is the only footstep so small.

　Just as Heath walks into the waiting area, he crouches down at Garuge's desk and begins to do something.

　I didn't seem to notice myself.

Crow stood up quietly with a mischievous smile, and sneaked up behind him with his sneaking feet.

"Wow!"

　I made a loud voice and touched my small shoulders with both hands.

　However, the reaction that Crow expected did not come back from the other party.

　Heath stays calm, squeezing Garooge's tools into the bag

　Bend the upper body so that it deflects to the shrimp, turn the face upside down, and match it with the crow.

"What happened? Mr. Crow"

(This guy has a soft body ...)

　With a flat face, Crow was a little surprised.

"What did you notice?"

"It's natural"

　Apparently, Crow was the only one who didn't realize it.

"Greetings"

"I was trying to get sick, and I was in a hurry, so I wonder if I should leave it later."

　I'm a cold junior ... Crow felt a little lonely.

　However, he asks Heath without hesitation.

"By the way, what are you doing?"

"I'm preparing for a survival exercise. I'm going to ask Mr. Garuji to cooperate."

　When I hear the word "survival exercise", joy comes to Crow's face. Crow confidently hit his chest, telling Heath.

"Then I'll cooperate with you. I'll talk to you about anything. You should rely on your seniors."

　Heath said that he had packed the necessary luggage into such a crow, tied the string of the bag, and carried it on his back to stand up.

"Mr. Crow seems to have a light mouth, so it's no good."

　That's it, with only a small footstep

　Crow, who is usually taken care of by Heath, takes the place just to kill time.

　To help other knights, a date with a girl who picked up, he was busy when he was busy, but he was completely free when he was free. In addition, there are many worries about Heath, and I haven't had a pick-up recently.

　You will be free.

　As Crow was sloppy, a rare human appeared in the waiting area. Roy is the king of the country and the head of the 18 knights. He is busy with the work of the king, and even though he is the chief, he cannot easily appear in this waiting area.

"Oh, did you have time?"

Crow, who has a careless relationship with the king, greets him in the usual light tone. In the first place, Roy is now acting as Knight Ior, not King Roy. It may seem unnatural to give a formal greeting.

"Oh, I managed to get the job done. Is Heath coming?"

Apparently I was worried about Heath.

　Crow was chilled when he heard that Heath's expeditionary force was involved in a fierce battle. However, when I come back, I'm in that condition.

　That junior always makes me scream.

"He's just as usual. I've been here a while ago, left me alone and went to Garuge."

　The crow sighs and answers.

　Roy gave an unusually relieved look to the answer.

"Well, I'm glad I was safe. If possible, I wanted to come and see what happened a little sooner, but I had to finish my work."

　Roy is really worried about Heath. Crow suddenly remembered Heath's true gender and felt strange about Roy's worries about women.

"I wish I hadn't suffered any psychological damage because of the battle ..."

　No matter how much you train to fight, there are some that will hurt your heart in the actual battle. It was a difficult problem for knights as well.

　And it was troublesome that the trauma of the heart was hard to understand even from the surroundings.

　However--.

"Isn't he okay? Anyway, as long as you can hear it, it's as usual. It seems like he's having fun with his friends in the north dormitory."

"wait a minute"

　Crow's words were stopped at a strange place. I don't mean to say that it feels strange. What the hell happened?

　Crow shook his head at Roy's mysterious restraint. Roy was more mysterious to Crow, for no reason to think of it.

　The Roy opens his mouth.

"Wait a minute. Why Heath lives in a men's dormitory. It's a girl."

　King Roy got caught in a strange place.

　No, it's not.

　Crow hurriedly corrects his thoughts. The part that got caught is normal. What was unusual was that Roy was caught there.

　Roy said, as Crow was a little confused and silent.

"What are you calming down? The girl is in the dormitory where the boy lives. There must be a lot of inconvenience in life. You can't be in trouble. In some cases, you may be in danger. "

"I'm surprised you noticed that ..."

　The real intention spills from Crow's mouth.

"What are you talking about?"

　Roy shook his head because he didn't understand the meaning of Crow's words.

　However, if you think about it, you may be undoubtedly under-thought. It wasn't long before Roy knew Heath as a girl.

If you match the report you heard from Heath with her gender, you've noticed it earlier. It was a detour.

　I thought I was concerned about Heath's life. I'm going to follow and give advice. However, the fact that there was a problem with the foundation of life in the first place

"Oh ... I have a lot of things ...! He's visibly wary when I try to talk about life in the knights. Well ... I tried to stop the knights. Maybe that's the cause ... For the time being, it's like a cat with unconsciously upright hair, so I can't say anything if he doesn't tell me. "

　Crow was worried about his relationship with Heath at Crow.

"But it can't be left as it is."

"No, he's thick and I'm not in trouble. Seriously."

　Looking at Heath's humor and daily attitude, Crow really thinks so.

"Sane, Crow. Heath is already an old girl. You can't be feeling the problem. No, even if you don't, the people around you will have to follow."

　Why does this guy hit the truth at such a timing?

　Why should such a man have to vomit the truth about a woman's relationship?

　Although Crow is a close friend, he felt absurd.

"Hey, I was against him continuing the Knights! It's Roy, it's your decision to leave it. If you want to do something, you have to do it yourself. I don't know. Karana! "

　Crow was irritated and said to let go.

"Mmm ..."

　Roy opened his eyes and looked a little surprised.

　Certainly, I interpreted what Crow said was correct. I may have unknowingly relied too much on Crow.

　Roy changed his expression to a crisp one and proclaimed it high.

"Okay. I'll try to solve this problem!"

　After hearing Roy's declaration, Crow already had a bad feeling.

　It may have been pushed too far with a buy word as a sell word.

"Oh, oh ... but don't try too hard ... you see, you're busy working as a king? And maybe you don't like Heath ..."

　I don't know what Crow is saying. Why do you hate to solve Heath's problem?

　I didn't understand the meaning, but I shook my head and answered with preparedness.

"Leave it to me. I'll come up with a solution within a few days."

　I don't understand, but Roy's words were released to reassure Crow, who seems to have had some anxiety. It also pushed Crow into a whirlpool of anxiety.

***

Later, even after the end of public affairs, civil servants discovered Roy flipping through the materials late at night.

"Hey, Your Majesty. Isn't it overworked ..."

　It's too late for Roy to be a workaholic, but his subordinates are worried that he's more absorbed in his work than ever before.

Roy raises his face from the material and answers the civilian.

"No, this is for private use. It's not work. It's temporary, so don't worry."

　Even if it is said that it is for private use, he is a person whose work erodes even privately. The civilian's concerns weren't clear ...

However, shortly after the civilian said anything, Roy began to read the material again.

"Hmm, is there such a system ..."

　—— And so on.

　Even though it was for private use, the civilian couldn't say anything as he continued to be absorbed in some work. In the room where the civilian greeted him and left, Roy continued to turn over the materials by himself.

***

　A few days later, Fee was called by Tacho.

"What happened? Tacho!"

　While asking what happened, Fee's expression on the 18th Knights' meetinghouse was smiling. I was really happy to meet Tacho.

"I have a story for you."

"Are you talking?"

　Iol proudly proclaimed to Fee, who was angry.

"I'm thinking of creating a female knights."

"Are you a female knight ...?"

　Fee tilted his head, wondering why he would tell such a story.

　Iol talks to Fee about the results of his research over the past week, whilst speaking a little faster.

"That's right. There are no female knights in Austre, but there are female knights in other countries. A brief interview shows that few women want to be knights in this country. However, in Austre, it is not common for women to become knights, so there may be cases where the idea of ​​becoming a knight does not come up. If a female knight group exists and its existence becomes established, even women There is a good chance that more and more people will want to become knights, so first of all, we will accept students from countries with female knights. There have been quite a few requests to interact with the Knights of Austre. I'm going to ask them for escort missions such as aristocratic daughters. "

　I thought Fee was a great plan.

　That is the scale of the national level.

　I thought it was amazing to be able to make a proposal of that scale. I'm sure there is a connection to someone with king-level power. As expected.

"Once the existence of a female knight is recognized, the perception in Austre will change, and eventually some women in their own country will begin to want to become knights. Perhaps it will take years to reach that point. However, if we work together with the students, we should be able to gradually increase it while maintaining the scale of the female knights. "

　Explaining the plan so far, Ior tells Fee from under the mask with a gentle voice.

"Heath, why don't you join this female knights as the first aspirant from your own country? There must be various anxieties about the current living environment. As the first female knight in Japan, your name will rise. I wonder. How about you? "

　In this case, Fee (Heath for Roy) should be able to spend his time as a knight without worrying about the surrounding environment. I'm sure you will be satisfied.

　With that conviction, Ior turned his eyes on Fee, which was incredibly gentle for him to turn to women.

　That kindness is also transmitted to Fee.

　——There was no reason.

　Fee looked like a kitten with bristled hair, quivering and staring at Iol with teary eyes.

"Do you mean you can go out ...?"

"What ...?"

　Ior doesn't know why this was the reaction.

"I told you to stay in this unit, but I was in the way !? Tacho's liar! Traitor!"

　Fee was completely angry, clinging to Roy and rampaging.

"Wait! Heath! That's not the story!"

"Then, what kind of story are you talking about! Why! That's right! You're trying to get rid of yourself!"

"No! Think of you!"

"I want to be in this unit, why!"

"Wait! Heath! Just calm down! Then listen to me ..."

"Why even the captain yeah yeah yeah !!"

　It's no longer a talkative situation.

　What was wrong with Roy?

　In detail, there may be various things. He didn't talk to the other person, or he was alone. But the worst thing was timing.

　Crow refused to be in the knighthood, and Fee was originally traumatized.

　Moreover, after that, he got into trouble at the expedition destination and injured his friend and felt helpless.

　I was behaving well and trying to do my best for survival training, but in reality, I was deeply stressed.

　Roy stabbed it with all one's might and spewed it all at once.

　When talking to women, or people, the first thing that matters is timing.

　No matter how correct your opinion is, if you make a mistake in the timing, it will not be heard, but it will even have the opposite effect.

　Crow, who has a lot of female experience, somehow felt that area.

　However, Roy, who has accumulated minuses rather than zero experience, has stepped on the mine to his heart's content.

　An hour later, Iol, who was torn down by a rampaging fee, appeared at the meetinghouse where Crow was.

"Failed to persuade Heath"

"Maybe"

　Crow was drinking tea and thought that he didn't have to be involved, with a cold sweat.
