161 – In England – 2
“Anyway, it’s late, but… Let’s do some jet lag training.”
After looking at the delighted Elizabeth for a while, the old man took us to the training ground without hesitation.
Going into the large building at the back of the mansion, there were definitely training facilities worthy of the Taylor family.
As I was admiring the facility, which was comparable to the academy, breath held my shoulder.
“Then, shall we check our skills first?”
“Oh yes.”
“For now, change into training clothes and come.”
“Okay.”
I came out after changing clothes in the changing room in the back. It’s a bit awkward, perhaps because it’s the Taylor family’s training uniform, but it’s not too bad to wear.
“Hmm…”
“Why is that?”
“The Taylor family crest suits you better than I thought! hahahaha!!”
“Ohohohohohoho! I think so too!”
I’m excited. Watching my grandson smile with joy, I shrugged my shoulders, and the old man immediately stopped laughing and led me right away.
“Let’s start with the bench press!!”
In the meantime, I had been training Elizabeth according to the Taylor family’s training method, so I thought that her strength and stamina had improved…
It’s actually quite high for a buffer.
But the old man’s training was more intense than my usual training. Thanks to that, I was quite exhausted, and I gasped, and Lord Breath tilted her head and then looked at Elizabeth.
“Hmm… John. Did you buff yourself?”
“No. Should I?”
“Hmm. Well, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, it’s not that great compared to normal healers if you only look at its own strength and stamina.”
He licked his lips in regret, then nodded.
“Well. Don’t worry too much. Didn’t you say you’d be in England for a week? I’ll teach you the Taylor family’s advanced training method! hahahahaha! If you practice that training method, you’ll get stronger too!!”
Being a buffer doesn’t mean you don’t participate in battle at all.
In particular, there are cases of canceling shots or shooting arrows to keep enemies in check, so it is welcome that the overall physical ability is strengthened.
“hahahaha!! But! There is not enough in the Taylor family!!”
I could only feel sincerity from the old man whose eyes were shining. I’d rather kill you today. It is a momentum that thinks it is better to say.
I wonder if this can survive…
“Don’t worry!”
Oh! Elizabeth!
“Taylor family healers are always there!”
I believed it!!
“Then let’s start training in earnest!!”
Huh? What have you done so far?
“That’s just a test!”
Ah… I see…
This is no joke.
.
.
.
“…Ugh.”
I trained twice as much as usual. That’s why I can’t even lift a finger.
Elizabeth lightly lifted me from the fall, and after sitting me down, she asked with a smile.
“Hohohoho!! Are you okay?!”
“I’m not okay…”
“You’re still wearing heels?”
Yeah, no matter how hard it is, giving up isn’t my taste. It is also an opportunity to train weak heels, so shouldn’t you raise your proficiency at this time?
“Hohohoho!! You don’t give up! That’s great!”
“Uh… Is today’s training over?”
“Yes! Proper training is important, but proper rest is also important!!”
“Ellie!! Welcome!”
“Ah! Yes! Then John! I’ll be back too!”
Elizabeth was unable to properly train her own because she was aiding in my training. Quickly running to her mentor’s call, she immediately began her training.
I sighed as I watched him lift a weight that was several times the weight I had lifted without difficulty.
It sure is great. The cadet average far exceeded.
Muscle strength, stamina, agility, and even flexibility.
The overall balance was well-matched, and she was very beautiful even when she was sweating.
“Then it’s sparring!!”
“Yes!!”
As soon as the simple routine was finished, Old Man Breath took Elizabeth to the arena. And the confrontation between grandparents began.
As if there was nothing to look after, Lord Breath was attacking Elizabeth mercilessly.
Taylor Sword and Taylor Sword. The sword and the sword wrapped in golden energy begin to collide.
It was a truly beautiful and wonderful sight.
But it must have been just my thoughts.
“That’s not it!! A little stronger!! A little faster!!”
“Yes!!”
Even if she was a cherished granddaughter, she became a relentless instructor when training. He casually wounds Elizabeth on her skin and punches her in her beautiful face.
Elizabeth’s eyes were shining beautifully even while dodging or blocking them, sometimes getting hit hard.
You are so eager.
While she was exhausted after rolling for a while, while she was taking a break, Grandpa Breath attacked me harshly. She trains like a full body squeeze, and again Elizabeth did the drill while I was spread out.
S-rank is amazing.
We were both exhausted and panting from the continuous training, but old man Breath was just as calm as the first time.
“Okay. Now I’m the only one left. John!”
“Yes?!”
“Use a buff on me!!”
Are you going to do a test like last time? I nodded and applied all the buffs I could apply.
“Ohh. It seems you’ve gotten stronger than before…?”
“People have to develop.”
“hahahahaha!! That’s right!! Good! Good!!”
Old Man Breath laughed heartily and swung his sword at the prepared steel plates. With each swing, the iron plates begin to shatter.
“You’re amazing.”
“Hohoho! Right?! You are a proud grandfather!!”
With pride, Elizabeth stared at Old Lady Breath. It is a look of goodwill, respect, and deep affection.
“Ah. Hey. John. Can you give me a minute after training? If you’re tired, I’ll go next time…”
“No. You can go now. But why?”
“There is a place I want to go with.”
A bright smile was painted on Elizabeth’s face. She had the look on her face that a stranger would call her beautiful, but I could tell.
A little melancholy hidden behind that expression.
I could tell just by that. Where will Elizabeth take me?
Her mother. It must be to meet Jung Soo-yeon.
The sun was up when I came out after training. I heard that the weather in England is always gloomy, but it’s better than I thought.
“The weather is nice today, so it’s perfect for an outing!”
“Is that so?”
“Hmm… Shall we go on a picnic?”
With a smile, Elizabeth walked up to me and led me along. After walking silently next to me, she let out a small sigh and opened her mouth.
“Do you know where I’m taking you?”
“Roughly. Aren’t you going to see your mother?”
“Ho-ho-ho… Yes. That’s right. Ah. If it’s uncomfortable…”
“There is nothing inconvenient.”
“…Thanks. Come on. Let’s go.”
She took me to a facility not too far from her mansion. After going through a thorough inspection and procedures, you can see the heroes and servants belonging to the Taylor family busily coming and going.
“Ah! Miss. Are you here?!”
“Lady~!”
As expected. Here, too, Elizabeth’s popularity was great.
She is Elizabeth, with her personality, beauty, and ability. This reaction was not too strange to her, as if she was born to be loved by her.
“Can I come in for a second?”
“Yes. It’s okay, but…”
Stopping her steps in front of a room, Elizabeth said to the middle-aged female hero in front of her door.
Her eyes are fixed on me. Seeing that gaze asking if it was okay for outsiders to come in, Elizabeth nodded slightly.
“It’s okay.”
“If so…”
The hero opened the way.
Holding her doorknob, Elizabeth let out a small breath. She feels tense. I then grabbed her by the shoulder and used her twilight shadow.
“…Uh…?”
“You seem very nervous.”
“…Hoho. Yes. I hope John will not be surprised.”
Well, I know roughly what the situation is.
She nodded and opened the door. What I felt at that moment was enormous malice.
As soon as I open the door, I feel a terrible energy that makes my flesh tremble.
Elizabeth slightly closed her eyes, and I just accepted it. Because of her high spirits, there was no damage.
“Hmm. Elizabeth?”
Sitting inside was an old man. The old man, sitting on the painted floor with a feather ornament on his head, pointed inward.
“Yes. How are you?”
“How are you and are you sleeping?”
Speaking bluntly, he turned his gaze to me.
“Ohhh. Anyway, I didn’t expect you to be fine here. Hey, you’re doing quite a bit? What’s your name?”
“My name is Yohan Kim.”
“I see… Ah. Come to think of it, I didn’t introduce myself. I’m called the owl of the field. As you can see, I’m a poor shaman.”
“hahahaha… It doesn’t look shabby at all, does it?”
“What. It’s still only A grade. As you can see… I’m here to help keep my friend’s daughter-in-law alive.”
He spoke leisurely and then pointed to one side. A woman lies in her bed, her life being maintained with the help of various medical devices and magic tools.
She has a pale complexion, but her health itself seems to be fine.
She looks like she’ll wake up any minute. The woman who looked as if she was asleep was Elizabeth’s mother, Jeong Su-yeon.
“…Mother. I’m here…”
Muttering softly, Elizabeth approached Jeong Su-yeon, and a single tear fell from her eyes.
I need to get the angel feathers soon.
