Milimos Saga – The Reincarnation Chronicle of the Youngest Prince. C160

Episode 160 Training with Family

While everyday life passed smoothly, there was one thing that could not be called smooth sailing. 

That's training with family. 

“Damn!”

I slash at the family while using sacred magic on my entire body. 

Because I practiced every day, the output of my sacred magic has improved, and now I can produce enough power to blow away an adult with one hand. 

Despite this, when I deal with Familias, my attacks are pushed away as if I were being chased away by a bug. 

“Not yet!”

Erase the sacred magic in your left hand and draw out the magical power. 

"A spark becomes a spark. A spark becomes a flame. Warm fire, appear. Pal Nis."

A spell that can only produce a weak flame, comparable to lighting firewood. 

However, if a fire of that magnitude were created in front of them, any human would instinctively turn their head away. 

The idea is to turn the family's face sideways and use that opportunity to attack. 

However, Familis has exceeded my expectations in an unexpected way. 

“If you think that kind of fire will scare you, then you are underestimating the knights of the Holy Knights Kingdom.”

While muttering, Familisu threw a headbutt with its bare face into my palm, which was still on fire. 

“What!?”

The headbutt I received knocked my left arm off, causing me to lose my balance. 

Even though the family in front of me had put its head into the fire, there wasn't even a single scorch on its bangs. Moreover, he was in the position of trying to punch me. 

"Aaah!"

“Gube-”

The family's fist hit me on the cheek. He may have been careful, but it was a blow with a fist clad in divine magic. I was instantly blown backwards. 

"K-this..."

When I stood up and put my hand on my cheek that hurt from being punched, I heard a sigh from my family. 

"Why does Prince Milimos try to rely on his small skills? This is training, right?"

"Since it's training, I think we should try out various tactics."

``Tactics are something that can only survive if you have a huge foundation.No matter how many tricks a baby tries, he will never be able to defeat an adult who has a better basic physique.''

It's like I was told that the difference in ability between me and my family is the same as that of a baby and an adult. 

When I get angry because it's not funny, my family looks troubled. 

"If they don't understand the difference in their abilities, it seems like it won't work until Prince Milimos experiences it for himself."

“What do you mean by experience?”

"It's the true ability that a knight of the Holy Knights Kingdom possesses."

The moment the family spoke, the atmosphere completely changed. 

Up until now, during training, I felt as if I were facing a beast of prey, but the current Family is nothing like that. 

It was like being peered into a boiling source of water, like when you look down from the top of a skyscraper, and it was a heavy feeling, almost like despair, that made you feel like your life was in danger, with tremors coming from beneath your feet. . 

A family in such a state took a step closer to us. 

Just from that, my body screams "Run!" and I get goosebumps all over my body. 

"Don't worry, it's only one blow. But seriously block it."

Although I was told contradictory things, I intuitively knew that if I didn't protect myself with all my might, I would die. 

I restarted the sacred technique on my left arm that had been turned off, and covered my whole body with the full power of my ki divine technique, which ran out of power in about ten seconds. 

At the same time, Familis raised his sword and muttered. 

“If it’s that bad, you’ll be seriously injured, right?”

It was a strange tone, like a warning, like he was telling the truth. 

I said, ``This is my full power! ” Before I could protest, Familis took another step—no, I couldn’t even register that he had taken a step. 

By the time I realized it, my family had been photographed in front of me. 

"Haaaa!"

From the moment I heard the cheers of my family, my perspective shifted into slow motion. 

The Familis sword was raised high and swung down to my head with a sense of despair, like a guillotine blade falling from the sky. 

I try desperately to move my arms, but they only move at a frustratingly slow pace. 

As I struggled to do something about it, I was able to increase the output of my sacred magic, which I thought had reached its limit, just a little. Along with this, his arm movements also became slightly faster. 

I had a hunch that this would be able to defend against Familis's sword. 

My sense was correct, and I was able to hit the sword that I raised, just at the point where Familis's sword had cut the tip of my hair. 

At the same time, I felt pressure in both hands, as if a sword was blocking a huge boulder that had fallen from the top of a cliff. 

“Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

I screamed as I withstood the power of Family's sword with all my might. 

The bones and flesh of his body were creaking from the impact, and it looked like it was going to fall apart. The sword that caught it made a disgusting sound like the creaking of metal, even though it was supposed to be covered by the power of divine magic. 

If I let my guard down even a little bit, I would be crushed to death by Family's sword. 

Gritting my teeth and closing my eyes tightly, I endured, endured, endured until the pressure from Family's sword disappeared. 

As I desperately tried to hold back, the pressure I had felt in my arm disappeared before I knew it. 

When I timidly opened my eyes, I saw my family smiling as they sheathed their swords. 

“It must have been a momentary experience for Prince Milimos, but what do you think about the seriousness of the knights of the Holy Knights Kingdom?”

The word "momentary" made me wonder about my current experience. 

However, as the family said, it should have been a moment. 

After all, it was just a family swinging his sword and me catching it. 

However, because of that momentary scene, I was attacked by mental and physical fatigue to the point of exhaustion. 

I can't even put enough effort into words to express my thoughts. 

"I'm terribly tired."

"Then, let's end today's training. It's rare for someone to be able to survive a serious blow from a knight while still standing."

I felt like I was being told a terrible truth in the second half. 

"Are you trying to kill me?"

"No way. I just believed that Prince Milimos, Princess Pulvera's husband, could withstand something like this."

As I was half-heartedly trying to say something nice, I suddenly heard a strange sound. 

It was a light but memorable sound, like chopsticks breaking or thin glass breaking. 

"Eh?"

The direction the sound came from - When I looked at my hand, the empire-made magic sword that I had been using ever since I became a marshal in Nonette country was broken in two.
