Army Angel: The Dark Side

The barrier was named 'Only'

" Today we have much, sir. "

A young man named Lucas who walked beside me happily said that while holding a basket of plants behind his back.

" yes. Although there were many monsters that appeared. "

" As long as there is you, sir. We'll feel safe. How can you be that strong? Your sword game. You could split the goblin's body with a single swing of the sword. It's fucking awesome. ''

" ah no-no. I think Theo can do it too. "

Theo is the only hunter in the village.

Having a slender body yet solid look, he is a 41-year-old man who has very sharp eyesight and hearing.

He once told me that he had been an adventurer in his youth. He retired and has chosen to focus on his family.

Even so, his experience as a hunter as well as an archer remains more mature than anyone who is here.

" Oh, Mister. You praise me too much. I am just a hunter. Maybe I'm good at snooping and archery. However, to be able to do the same thing as you do, I think it is impossible. "

" impossible? Why that? Your body still looks strong. "

I stopped my steps and looked towards Theo. Followed me they stopped too.

" Indeed. But back again, I was just an archer and a hunter. I'm more apt for enemy reconnaissance duty. Although it is my arrow that can kill goblins, but it is necessary to hit the head. Even if I use the sword it may only be able to slash it, not split like you did."

We then continued walking towards the village.

" Is that some kind of noble practice sir? I heard that the noble knights are strong. What type of exercise do you do so you can be very strong at such a young age. "

" Hey, Dreo! Isn't it rude to ask that?! "

Versy who is the second oldest person in the group voiced her objections.

" Come on Versy. You must be curious too, right? I asked him politely, too. ''

There will be a fight between them.

" That's not the stupid thing! To inquire about the training of noble knights for a peasant like us. Isn't that taboo! "

Dreo was silent hearing this. I think the opinion expressed versy is true for Dreo. But I don't understand that.

My country used to win run with the imperial system. However, from what I know, there is a separation between the duties of the nobles and the military. The national system only plays a political role in government, while the military is composed of various layers of society, regardless of the influence of the nobility.

I wasn't a noble from the beginning.

" It's okay, Versy. I never got the training Dreo imagined anyway. "

" Why Sir? Aren't you the third child? I heard that other than the first child of a noble it would usually be made a knight or someone equal to it? "

It's critical. I'm flabbergasted. I wasn't a noble before, but I forgot that my profile here is that of a noble boy.

I have to answer it. But what reason would make sense? If I just answer and they suspect, it is not impossible that they will consider me a fraud and expel me.

I looked towards Dreo with a troubled expression.

"... Sorry Mister. I seem to have asked you something inappropriate. "

Dreo shows a complicated experiment.

" It's okay. "

Now the heavy atmosphere enveloped us.

I don't like this atmosphere.

" ..So you asked me why I can be this strong, right? It's because of the exercise. "

" Exercise Sir? "

" right. Not getting any special knight training, doesn't mean we should stop practicing, does it? So I decided to practice on my own. Oh yea. Do you have free time? What if I practice with me? Practicing with just the Archilles was boring. If you're interested later in the afternoon we'll practice together. ''

I also intend to practice archery with Theo later.

" We have free time because the planting time is still 2 weeks away. However..''

Versy expressions are problematic before continuing.

".. Can we really be strong? We're just farmers who know how to swing hoes and scythes. We don't have any weapons here or talent. "

" Is so. Then you can't. "

No one responded to my statement. And with that I continued.

" The word 'only' is what is your barrier. If you think so, that's what happens. If you want to train with me and become stronger. I'll wait for the afternoon. I'll make a gun out of wood for training. ''

" good, Sir. ''

Versy and Dreo almost simultaneously replied.

Among the five of us indeed they are people who are interested in that knight.

Now, we were almost at the village where I saw a girl running towards me.

She's a pretty girl for a country girl.

His skin clearly showed that he was pretty much exposed to the scorching sun and now flowing sweat on that skin.

With a breath he approached me.

" sir. The two Elves had come to a realization! I've been told by mom to tell you. "

" really? You shouldn't have to run around here. I'll be home later too. But, thank you. Then come on. "
