<span style="font-weight:400">Keith woke up and stretched his arms and legs into the air. These beds are so weird. Staring down, only one thought came to his mind: it was not the same. Specifically, the animals. Fira and Mir would always be there; not having them there didn''t give the same feeling.
<span style="font-weight:400">No warmth at all!
<span style="font-weight:400">A deep sigh came out of his mouth. It was only a day too. The only thing that came to his mind was to train. That would clear his mind of everything. As he went out,
<span style="font-weight:400">Huh? There are no maids. Keith realized he was the only one in the hallway. He had walked out into the garden; he started to work out. Tennol told me to work on my legs and core. That was to increase his foundation as a tank. As Keith continued to do situps and squats,
<span style="font-weight:400">"Hah, why are you working out all the way here?" He turned to see a bunch of knights observing him. They had the Rustchil emblem on their right chest.
<span style="font-weight:400">"I''m only here to get my blood flowing." Increasing his foundation and energizing his body. That was what he wanted to do. The knights nodded, "How about youe to the barracks? We heard that the students from the academy were geniuses."
<span style="font-weight:400">"Eh?"
<span style="font-weight:400">"We were told that you all get the best education. That also includes swordsmanship as well. We would like to learn from it."
<span style="font-weight:400">"...Sure." Keith took a deep sigh as he followed the knights. When that happened, he didn''t notice the knights'' smirks. It took a few minutes before they arrived at the barracks. A bunch of knights were talking with one another.
<span style="font-weight:400">Why is it like this? Keith was in disbelief at how they were acting. That was when someone said, "So this is the person that came with Krystal."
<span style="font-weight:400">"...Yes." Keith continued to have a calm expression as he replied.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"My name is Dolus, themander of the Rustchil Knights. I heard you''ll show us the famed swordsmanship taught by the academy."
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Hmpf." The knights snickered from behind as they stared at him.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Sure, I can show you the academy''s swordsmanship. After all, it''s famous." Keith grinned.
<span style="font-weight:400">Dolus''s expression remained calm as he called one knight, "Go forward."
<span style="font-weight:400">"Yes!" Someone came out from the group. He raised his sword and dashed at Keith with his sword in hand, prepared to take him out. However,
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Aren''t you supposed to greet one another before we fight?" Keith had the sword right at the man''s neck. As the man charged at him, there were so many openings that he almost didn''t know which one to choose!
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"…" Those knights were left there speechless.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"…Lnd, you go up there now!" Dolus turned to another knight. But this one had an evenrger body than the others. He walked up to Keith.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Regards." Unlike the others, this one had bowed his head and prepared for a standard duel.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Regards." Keith nodded. Like that, the two of them fought. As he did, Keith was calm as he fought with this guy. This guy isn''t like the others. Unlike the others, this guy was actually sharp. His movements didn''t waste any strength.
<span style="font-weight:400">Keith continued to guard against the attacks. Opening! As Lnd brought his sword in the air, Keith made his opening!
<span style="font-weight:400">"You lose."
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"You did well. I just did better." There was nothing about it. Keith was just a notch higher than him.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"…I see." The knight didn''t say anything else as he got up. However, that made Dolus even more furious.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"How could you lose like this! You''re supposed to be the vicemander!"
<span style="font-weight:400">"…" Lnd didn''t say anything as he looked away.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Shouldn''t you put where your mouth is?"
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Hah?"
<span style="font-weight:400">"You''ve been barking orders, but you haven''te up to face me." That guy only called the knights out to fight. He sat on the side and watched him defeat them.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Do you think you can-" "Beat you? I can do it." If he continued to talk like that. Then why couldn''t he beat him?
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"…" Dolus raised his sword, prepared to attack. However,
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"What is everyone doing?" Keith turned around to see Krystal with a frown.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Princess." Lnd and some of the knights bowed their heads. But Dolus continued to have a calm expression.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Your guest wanted to fight with the knights."
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Yeah, and you guys were pretty trash." Keith scoffed, "Except for Sir Lnd, the others weren''t that talented."
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">“…” The knights wanted to say something but couldn''t since the boy had beaten those guys up. Krystal frowned, "Dolus, why are you themander of the knights?"
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"…" Figures.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Sterling decided to retire early on. I''m the one who became themander of the knights."
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">His words only caused Lnd to frown.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Young Lady, pleasee here," Winston called out to them. It was time for them to have breakfast.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"…Understood." Krystal nced at Dolus before walking back. But she turned to Winston, "We''ll be having breakfast in my mother''s room."
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Understood."
