176 A new life
I train with my friends in a corner of the courtyard where the morning sun shines.
Since the courtyard has become quite large, Lindblum can now be easily called upon.
I'm wondering if I could improve the accuracy of my cooperation with Lindblum by having him watch the training on a regular basis.
It's Lindblum, who puts the carbuncle on his nose and tail and lets them slide. It looks like they are basking in the sun peacefully, but in fact they are watching our training with great interest. There's no problem.
By the way, Fortok told me that the reason why Carbuncle and the others avoid riding on my back is because Lindblum doesn't want anyone other than me to ride on his back. It's the right thing to do.
"It's swollen. Dangerous."
Sheila gave a short warning. As if to match those words, the aqua golem appeared to expand from within, then burst open and water droplets scattered around it.
The companions received them with the magical shield magic tool they wore on their left hands. It's not always possible to receive a warning in time in an actual battle. Faster than you think. So that it can be deployed instantly.
What I'm doing is taking precautions when I go to the Flaming Fortress. The training conducted in the morning also incorporates content that simulates a battle at the Flaming Fortress.
“It was a little dangerous just now.”
“Maybe it would be a good idea for me and Lavigne to create more cover.”
Grace and Ashley are talking. Marlene was also making small movements with her thin sword like a baton, perhaps reflecting on her movements with the saucer, or perhaps training herself to imagine moving the saucer while nodding. Well, since each of them prevented it now, there was no damage.
“Hmm. I wonder if it would be a good idea for Sheila and I to act together so that we can hear Sheila’s voice from the direction we need to be on guard?”
“Would you like to try that next time?”
"...I see. It's a countermeasure against bomb locks."
Claudia, who saw such a training scene, nodded in admiration. yes. There's a rock monster that carries out suicide bombings. The Fire Rat's cloak will protect you from heat damage, but you'll have to deal with rock debris.
“Well, we need to do a good dry run.”
My friends' training is just training, and I have to do my own training in parallel.
Cover your eyes with a cloth and place golems around you. Automatically performs coordinated attacks according to a set algorithm.
There is no vision link with Caduceus. By watching Grace and the others' training through Caduceus, I can operate and supervise the golem at the same time as my own training.
At the same time, I would be able to detect attacks with a thin shield around my body and continue to evade them with just a piece of skin.
Judging the golem's posture from the angle and size of the attack that hit the shield. Aim only for his head and smash it with Ouroboros. Golem attacks from behind. Dodge by twisting your body and hitting the head at the same time as impact.
The golem on the other hand uses water bullets as a feint to make it look like a blow, a water whip that transforms its hand from outside its range, a suicide attack with an explosion, and a time delay attack that overlaps its body.
While continuing to intercept and evade, deal with and destroy the Aqua Golem.
Smooth activation of impact strikes, omnidirectional shield detects attacks outside the field of vision. I was satisfied with this to some extent, so I got down on the ground and took off my blindfold.
"I've heard that your husband is the rumored demon slayer, but...I don't know whether to accept it or be surprised."
Cecilia's eyes widened. She is also the residents of the labyrinth village who are studying her work with her. The children looked at me with shining eyes. Hmm... It's a little embarrassing.
"I'm very impressed. I'm sure you can learn a lot from it. Make sure to check it out during your breaks from work."
“Yes, Mihaela-sama.”
Did the two of you say something like they knew how to protect themselves?
If that's the case, it would be better to know about the two's weapons and fighting methods. Well, of course Mihaela has work to do at home, and Cecilia has work to do at her house, so it's not like she's going to take her to the labyrinth.
“Mihaela-san uses a thin sword, right?”
“I just like it.”
This guy is humble, but his posture, or rather his core, doesn't waver. I have a feeling he'll actually use it quite a bit.
“In that case, Cecilia too?”
"No. I practiced the same weapon that my father used because I wanted to be able to use it myself."
So, Cecilia brought the weapon she uses and showed it to me.
...If the handle was a little longer, it would probably be classified as a pole weapon like a glaive or bardiche. The handle is a little short, and it looks like it's intended for close-range combat.
"This is for indoor use. If you're in a larger space, you can replace the handle with a longer one. Even if you don't have the strength, you can make it powerful by adding momentum."
"I see"
"I've taught you things that can be applied, such as physical handling and self-defense without using your hands. As a servant, I think you'll pass."
Well...it doesn't seem like he's lagging behind the thieves around here. I guess the reason why I didn't tell him about the thin sword technique was out of respect for his will.
"However, in the future, perhaps we should assume the ability to fly. I'm already old, so I don't think I'll be able to fight like that."
Mihaela closes her eyes and says.
Hmm. Maybe the two of them should also prepare aerial combat equipment. What Mihaela is talking about is fighting by flying around, but being able to use your shield as a foothold to adjust your altitude to your opponent makes a difference.
“Would you two like to train together when you are free from work?”
"Are you sure you're not bothering me?"
“If you increase the number of golems, it will be more magic training, so there is no problem.”
"In other words... it means you still have some leeway in your magic control."
Claudia smiled.
"Hello"
"Hello, Theo-kun."
"No, it's become an amazing mansion."
At dusk, Justia and Dominique came to visit with a Forest Bird escort.
I came to play or rather practice playing with Irmhild.
The stage was already taking shape, and in order to have everyone enjoy the performance and get them interested in the theater, we decided to hold a light practice in the entertainment room.
While the girls perform, everyone relaxes in the entertainment room. Perhaps to match the location, Irmhild and the others were playing light and lively music.
“I guess you made a lot of things.”
"Ah, well. I'd be happy if you could play with me."
Forest Birds are friendly people, so they might be the perfect person for the residents of the labyrinth village to interact with outsiders.
"Hmm? Throwing an arrow and hitting the target to reduce the points you have? Sounds like fun. Fitz, let's compete."
"Good. What do you want to bet?"
"I'll treat you to a drink when I get home."
"I rode"
I've made several dart boards, so I can play with any available boards. The two immediately showed an interest in darts, and seem to be enjoying playing darts alongside the residents of the labyrinth village.
“Does that child also use the human transformation technique like Justia-san and Dominic-san?”
Lucien said this while looking at the Alkeny girl who was smiling happily while playing cards with her friends at the table. Her name is Claire, and she is one of the monsters who cannot use the art of human transformation and relies on magic tools.
There are some black pearl-like sparkles on her forehead...but they aren't really ornaments, they seem to be the eyes of a spider. It looks like a circlet, but it doesn't look particularly intimidating. He also seems like an adult.
"Yeah. Well, almost all the servants. I guess she relies on magic tools."
“Is that so?”
Lucian let out a sound of admiration.
By the way, Monica also participated in the darts match, and in the end she overwhelmed Robin and Fitz. Monica, who is in charge of scouting, seems to be the best among the Forest Birds when it comes to throwing and other skills.
A fairly peaceful scene unfolded, with the residents of the labyrinth village smiling wryly at Robin and Fitz, who dropped their shoulders at the decision to treat them.
As I was enjoying Irmhild's performance while looking at such a scene, I received a call from Alfred on the communicator.
``I tried to reach out to someone. Theo seems to want to hear your story.''
``I understand. Is it okay if I show you some of the things I made? ”
"roger that. What should we do about the location? ”
As soon as I replied, there was a response from the other side as well. I feel like Alfred is getting quite used to operating the communication device as well.
``I think it's still too early for the workshop and my house, so I'll bring it in here.''
``I understand. I'll contact you again when the schedule is decided.''
Now... Then there are cards, billiards and dart boards. I need to make another set of these before the day.
