The Fake Princess's Soul Contract Duke
Chapter 21: Towards the Training Area



After leaving Mary, Alianora walked down the corridor in front of her room.


That afternoon, Alianora was planning to try practicing the sword to see the physical strength of her body up to nowhere. Ever since she woke up in this body, Alianora had no time to think about it, thanks to the various rush that struck.


Though it is certainly important, because the entry requirements of Aethergarde as well, not only rely on magic power, but the physical must also remain maximum.


As a result today, when Alianora was not having any work, she intended to try her body strength.


So now, excitedly, Alianora walked towards the Sheridan Family training area commonly used by Sheridan warriors and knights to train.


Alianora walked past some servants who were doing her work in the corridor.


They seemed to be busy cleaning the furniture there as usual.


Alianora looked at them in turn, but when they met a glance, they immediately quickly turned their eyes away.


Seeing that, Alianora furrowed her brows.


The attitude of the servants to him had indeed changed lately, but he did not expect that they would show such a reaction to him.


Alianora actually just hope they are more polite, know themselves so, if faced with him, not afraid like seeing a ghost.


It was not that she was unusual, that if she was still a murderous goddess, she would be happy to have people kneeling before her, but now she was an ordinary human princess who had to fulfill a mission.


So for a strong reaction like this, it was already no longer useful.


In that case, he looks like a bad guy here, doesn't he?


But why were they so scared from the start? What, what am I doing?


As Alianora recalled, she did not do anything too extreme. At most it only scares them with a sharp look, and scolds them a little.


But, yeah, that's it. This is also good, they can not do anything, or disturb him. At least the surroundings can be a little quiet.


While passing through the corridor where Estelle's room was located, Alianora accidentally passed by two familiar servants.


How could he not know these two servants? After all during her time at Nauchwanstein Castle, these two servants were often seen serving Estelle. Yes, they were Estelle's personal servants, and also included from some of the servants who were still disrespectful to Alianora.


Where Estelle went, they were there too. Every time Estelle was with him, the two maids also came along, standing behind Estelle while looking at Alianora with a sharp gaze.


So, now, just looking at them without Estelle, it's so weird.


The two maids stepped towards him while carrying some clean towels and also a carriage containing some light snacks, pastries and also cold drinks in a large glass teapot.


They caught the look in Alianora's eyes that saw them, as usual, they just passed by without greeting. Alianora directly intercepted them.


"Hey you guys are there. Just a minute."


However, instead of answering Alianora's call, the maid simply walked over without even turning her head, like they had heard nothing.


Alianora who was slightly upset immediately tightened her voice until the servant downstairs, shocked to hear her shrill voice.


"HEY DON'T YOU HEAR ME?"


The servants finally stopped, and turned their bodies towards Alianora. Their faces clearly showed an unpleasant expression, Alianora also had time to see one of the servants rolling her eyes.


"Yes, what's wrong, miss?"


They don't even apologize. They really have guts, huh.


Alianora stepped up to them with a somewhat irritated feeling. These two people had indeed often behaved like this to her, and she had always ignored that. But, now might be the time for him to teach them a little lesson.


"Why didn't you answer my call?"


One of them casually replied, looking straight into Alianora's eyes.


"Oh, it's because we didn't hear the voice of the lady that was too small."


"Didn't you see me standing here?"


The other servant smirked while looking at Alianora lowly.


"Hm? Were you here just now? Oh, I'm sorry, because we didn't pay much attention to that lady."


The two of them then chuckled indifferently that Alianora was still in front of them.


As for Alianora, seeing them like that, it felt like her anger had already reached the crown. However, the more irritated he was, the wider the grin on his face was.


"Not seen? Not hear? Hey you over there! Did you hear me?"


Alianora said to a servant who was cleaning the vase, not far from them. The servant was immediately startled when he heard Alianora's voice, and immediately nodded.


"Can you see me too?"


"Can, miss...."


After that, Alianora looked back at the two maids in front of her. His face instantly turned dark, just like a slanted smile etched sweetly in his mouth.


"Oh, it turns out that the other servants can still see and hear me well. Looks like you're the only ones in trouble, hm?"


The two maids who saw the strange expressions on Alianora's face started to sweat a little. They took a step back as Alianora approached them.


"If your ears and eyes are useless, how about we get rid of them, hm? Because, Nauchwanstein Castle, it doesn't accept anything useless."


"N-miss, m-maksut you...? N-nona don't come any closer."


Alianora picked up a dinner knife on the train, and played it like a pencil.


"Oh, it's okay, I'm just helping you get rid of the rotten body parts. It'll only hurt a little. Just relax."


"N-miss..t-please! Wh-anyone! Help me!"


All the servants who saw it were pale-faced, they were scared but could not move, even some of them were already trembling on the spot.


Alianora was completely unaware of that, her focus only venting her anger at the two maids who were sweating coldly in front of her.


"Sshh, don't yell in the corridor, isn't that the rule? Or is the mouth starting to lose control? Do I need to get rid of it too?"


Then one of the two of them ventured to grab the knife in Alianora's hand, but thanks to Alianora's lightning-fast reflex, Alianora managed to grab the servant's hand, then pulled it until it made the servant's body bend forward, and in a blink of an eye, Alianora pressed the knife against the servant's neck rather firmly, so that the bloodstains slightly fouled the blade.


Alianora's blue silver bead that exuded a powerful killing aura, pierced into the servant's eyes that were fixated on staring at her.


His body was trembling more and more, and his voice was like it was stuck in his throat. In fact, some of the servants around Alianora did not dare to make a sound.


Suddenly, the servant beside him knelt on the floor, and begged Alianora.


"Sorry lady, we were wrong...! P-please forgive me, miss! Forgive us."


Alianora looked at him expressionless, not interested though, but then she smiled sweetly at them, like an innocent child.


His feet stepped closer to the kneeling servant, releasing the servant whose neck had already let out a droplet of blood.


Alianora raised the chin of the kneeling servant using a blade.


"Oh, yeah. By the way, where's Elle? Why aren't you with him?"


"Miss Estelle, N-miss Estelle is practicing p-sword, miss, with S-sir Gallahan, in the training area...."


"Hm, is that it? Yes, thank you for answering."


Alianora smiled as she patted the knife on the servant's cheek.


"Ah, one more thing."


Alianora placed the knife on the carriage back, then looked at the two maids.


"I hope this doesn't happen again, and don't tell anyone this. That goes for you guys too, yeah."


Alianora said as she looked at the few servants around her.


"You guys, you understand, right?"


...*****...


After finishing 'talking' with the servants, Alianora immediately headed to the training area.


Facing the servants did make him sometimes feel dizzy, until sometimes his emotions were out of control, but after he evaporated it, his feelings became lighter, and Alianora liked the sense of relief.


After all, looking at the faces of those servants earlier, he was satisfied to have taught them a lesson in order to no longer underestimate him.


Although he felt that this time he was a little too late to let go of his emotions.


Alianora looked at her slightly trembling hand, frowning.


But thanks to that too, I came to know the strength of this body. I can't believe this body is that weak.


From the beginning, Alianora had indeed felt that this body was weak. Naturally, the body of a noble daughter who was no more than 10 years old would be as strong as what?


So he intends to train his physique so that if he is already in the academy later, at least his body is ready with all the physical training in the academy later, if any.


But Alianora had a hard time believing that this body was so weak. Just using a little energy to attract a young servant had already made his hands tremble.


What if his hand was used to hold a sword? Or any other weapons?


Hah, if this is the way, I have to work hard.


Therefore, today he was already determined to start his physical training.


On the other hand, other than Alianora's desire to practice, she was also actually filled with curiosity.


According to what the maid said, it seemed like the training area was being used by Estelle, and if Estelle was practicing, it meant the soldiers of the Sheridan Family as well.


This is because Alianora knew, if in the past life, who became the teacher Estelle was one of the best knights in the Sheridan Family and also in the Kingdom of Agris, Sir Gallahan.


Sir Gallahan always trained Estelle along with other novice warriors, although the area was separate.


Because of this Alianora got a little excited.


He was very curious as to how the current human sword technique was, whether it was still the same as he remembered it back then, or had it changed. Growing stronger? Or getting weaker? He wants to see it.


That was because, from a long time ago, he had enjoyed observing the ever-changing humans, rather than seeing the gods of heaven who until the apocalypse would remain the same. It's boring, isn't it?


In addition, she was also curious about Estelle, her meek half-sister.


Alianora imagined how the smooth, smooth, white, thin hand could hold a sword and swing it before the opponent.


He can't see it at all.


But of course, Alianora couldn't underestimate Estelle too much now either, as her body was also that weak.


Arriving at the training area, Alianora was immediately greeted by a sight that made her eyes sparkle.


In front of him were several rows of soldiers of the Duke Sheridan Family who were doing their regular training.


They practice attacking straw dolls, some practice fighting one-on-one, some practice posture.


Not only swords, there are also those who practice other weapons, such as arrows, spears, and others.


Looking at the scene before him, Alianora seemed to be refreshed by his old memories.


It had been a long time since she had come into contact with the fight, and to be here, she felt that herself as Goddess Alianora, had returned.


"Sister!"


Alianora was shocked to see Estelle running towards her from the side.


The girl was dressed like a practicing noble child, with a long sleeved shirt collared in black to emasan, as well as white trousers, as well as her one-pointed long hair, it made her look like a noble lady knight.


"Sister, why is he suddenly here?"


"Hm, I haven't seen you anywhere, and the servants say you're here practicing the sword. So, I came here. Am I bothering you Elle?"


Estelle shook her head slowly.


"Of course not, brother. I'm glad my brother's here. Hehe."


Suddenly, Alianora thought of something, and it made her smile as she looked back at Estelle.


"Hey, Elle. Is your training over?"


"Not yet, brother, I'm on a break right now, what's the matter, brother?"


"Then can I come with you?"
