38-2. The gambler’s fallacy.
***
In Grand Hearts Academia’s swordsmanship training ground, only the sound of a sword cutting through the wind was shaking. I took a few deep breaths and continued swinging my arms.
A wooden doll was enchanted to avoid attacks. The movement of the rogue class is fast and erratic. It should be as fast as possible.
Break! There was the sound of wooden swords colliding with trees. The doll that was cut vertically was split into two pieces.
This isn’t enough. I couldn’t respond to Blanc. Should I do it a little faster? While checking the magic circle engraved on the wooden doll.
“Licht..”
“Why is that? Blood.”
I stopped moving and looked back at the sound of someone calling me. Traces engraved on the floor were conspicuous.
In the background, there were already a number of broken and broken wooden dolls.
“Because of me.. Sorry..”
“Why is it because of you?”
Beside the window, Fine Grancia was squatting with her helmet off. Even though it’s late, I’m watching the training to see if I’m worried.
“Because I wear a masterpiece….”
“It couldn’t be helped.”
Fine touched the blue rose decoration. It would have seemed like she won the grade exam only with the defense of a master piece.
It is understandable that other students are envious or jealous.

“Blanc is just a bad person.”
However, Blanc was disillusioned because he instigated it by mentioning his status as a teaching assistant. Crazy b*tch for sure It’s probably an ulterior motive to isolate Fine and do something about it.
I never thought I would use dirty tricks. It could be that the player is trying to lower the relationship between me and Fine.
Or a human attached to the cult of warriors. There are only two possibilities.
“If you use my power, you can cut it.. Licht..”
Fine said in a cool tone. She looked like she wouldn’t bleed even if she stabbed her. After all, he resembles Emperor Locke.
“No, you don’t have to.”
On the contrary, I will be more suspicious. People are not stupid. The teaching assistant who insulted him disappears overnight? Then it’s obvious
Even if you’re not necessarily a princess, being a child of a high-ranking person will be exposed, and you could be rejected by commoners at the academy or targeted by nobles.
“You have a week left, right?”
She is the only princess of the Grancia Empire. Can’t you imagine people giving money or telling lies to impress Fine?
A fly that clings to her because of her identity, not true friendship or love. There was no way I could be happy with an academy life full of guys like that.
“You just need to be fair and square with your skills.”
“Th… But… I don’t like it when Richt is criticized….”
It drew closer to Fine, who raised her tail vertically, revealing her alertness.
“Li, Licht..?”
Fine must have chewed her tongue, her pronunciation muffled. Took. She did and stretched out her palm, which she raised over her white hair.
The golden eyes looked up at me as if they were greatly surprised.
“I’m cheap even if I get cursed at. Did you have a mixed bath with the princess?”
She looked around to make sure no one was there. She sees Fine taking off her helm, so she’ll be fine. The Imperial Guard will be guarding the outside.
“Licht.. Stroking the head.. Foul play..”
As I gently stroked her hair, the soft scent of roses spread. The girl now had many things different from when she was a nameless saint.
‘Fine now doesn’t hesitate to use her own power.’
She is similar in that she is alone because there is no one to understand her, but she is a princess who excels in power, strength, and wealth.
But I’m fine without it.
I can love Fine even if she becomes a nameless saint or even if she lives as a princess. Because the inside of a person is more important than the outside.
“Don’t think badly. Blood.”
“Huh.. Al, I get it..”
Use your thumb and forefinger to lightly sweep up the wolf’s ears. I want the soft touch to annoy me more. Fine bit her lower lip and trembled slightly.
“If the opponent used a cowardly move, you have to return it.”
When she stopped beckoning, she moved her head to get the most of my stroking. Where else did you learn this? It has become a mirror image of what I saw in my dream.
“In the end, aren’t we all going to compete against the TA at least once? If I win first, the next students will naturally understand with their bodies.”
The given period is one week.
There was a word from Drake that the real sparring would begin next week. Until then, if you become stronger and defeat Blanc, there will be no harm.
If you show your skills, rumors will spread among people that you captured the demon king. Whether it’s the bad side or the good side, it becomes difficult to touch Fine.
But how much I was stroking Fine. Isn’t this about being arrested for touching the body of the princess? I let go of my hand thinking I shouldn’t touch it anymore.
“Ah..”
A sigh escaped Fine’s small mouth. I guess she understood. Seeing her slightly excited expression, she felt guilty.
“..I asked Master Drake. They said it was recommended by the Marquis.”
I checked to see if I entered the academy illegally by deceiving my background.
“My senior is right too.”
In fact, there was a record of him being the former student council president. It should be different if Magic Hat used authority.
“If you cut it off right away, it could upset the margrave’s planting, or there might be someone trying to figure out Fine’s identity.”
It is said that Drake’s words originally had an unusual side. Even when he was at the academy, he was a student who didn’t know where to turn.
“Don’t you want to go to the academy just like everyone else? Is it bloody?”
“Yeah, at first… I tried to be strong… but now….”
However, it was shocking that he tried to attack the princess, Fine. Later, when I called her separately to talk, I heard that she was only trying to take off her glass armor.
Feeling reluctant, Master did not inform me that she was the princess. Seeing as she agitated the students, there was potential for trouble.
“..I want to go out with Richt.”
Fine said with all her heart. There was power in her voice as she clasped her hands together and recited in a chaste manner. There’s nothing you can do about it I have to protect you.
“I will do as you wish. Her Highness the Princess.”
“Whoa, what is it.. That. It’s awkward.”
She got down on one knee and took the knight’s oath. She must have been satisfied. Her sad expression disappeared and I saw a smiling Fine in front of me.
After seeing that, I thought it was resolved, so I imagined the battle with Blanc in my head.
Drake Ryu’s weakness is that he needs to prepare in advance.
I’m sure he’ll avoid it if he’s going to use an air strike or a repulsive thrust. Will the Heavenly Demon’s swordsmanship work? She must be having a hard time with the dagger she was using.
‘It’s most likely a dream knife.’
If it’s a weapon that turns the attacked part into sand, it’s the most suitable.
A dagger made by a fairy that induces sleep due to the setting. When a person is sleepy, it’s similar to having sand in their eyes or something.
An item that was used as an ending item for the thief class in the game.
Ability puts you in an abnormal sleep state or turns objects into sand. Even if the appearance is slightly different from what I know, that is the only answer.
If my hypothesis is correct, then you should use a fake holy sword because it is an artifact class.
‘Can I avoid it if I use rain?’
If you hit even raindrops, you can fall asleep as soon as they touch. It will be difficult to approach even with a concept. In the first place, they would launch daggers or use the point of twin swords to spread a wild dance.
I’ve thought about destroying the terrain to create a foothold in the air or get in the way. But in the end, the problem is that you can’t keep up with the speed.
If it wasn’t for the stat increase from the dice, it would be worth trying….
Borrowing and using Kainel’s Holy Sword is a heavy burden on the body. In the end, the only way left is to draw a new sword. I sat down on the training ground floor and started meditating.
“Licht.. What are you doing..?”
“I need a new sword.”
Perhaps it was strange that I was closing my eyes, and Fine was approaching me. Come to think of it, what image should I choose? The right image doesn’t come to mind.
What happened in the North? Or the thoughts I kept trying to run away from Fine? Another hot spring….
“…”
Several minutes have already passed since I was sweating and delusional. In my personal opinion, I didn’t have the strength to pull out the heart sword.
“Pine. Could you help me?”
“Uh..?”
Then I felt breathing right next to me. What were you just trying to do Fine’s voice trembled like a cat caught stealing.
“To draw a new sword…. There is a lack of imagery.”
“Isn’t that holy woman not enough?”
“Pine, I want to draw a sword just for you…”
Only at times like this are you quick to notice. It was the same when fighting the Apostle of Gluttony, and the Heavenly Demon talked about it, so you should know how the sword comes out.
“..A lie. You’re a flirt.”
Cook. I felt like I was stabbing my heart with a needle. It’s a punishment for accumulating lies. As if to vent her anger at me, she was applying her burn ointment.
“Bad doggie. Eight.”
When did you upload the face armor again? Cool Please don’t attack me suddenly like this.
‘I want to tell you the truth, but if I do that, it’s like imitating her saintess.’
Where is there such a thing? Even if it was something that could bring her nameless saintess and her present Fine into a three-way confrontation. A speech about the saintess’ pure love was desperately needed.
“Licht.”
I heard Fine calling me in my ears. The small whispering voice tickled.
“..I was wrong. Blood.”
“Whoa, what if… what if… what if I do this…?”
A playful tone as if he had a good idea. Are you trying to help? Her small hand grabbed my shoulder.
“Whoa..”
Page. Jjook. There were two sounds and warm, soft breaths touched my cheeks. This is a visual bloody Unfortunately, there was no impure physical contact.
“Pee, Pine..? What did you just do?”
“..The kiss on the cheek you gave me last time.”
It was Fine Grancia who barely spoke out shyly. Did you have the courage to help me get the sword? He pulled the corners of her mouth down as she tried to rise.
“If that’s the case… you won against a nameless saint…?”
“…”
Instead of answering, he responded with silence. Yeah, maybe it took the edge.
“Now I win. Whoop..”
Fine has a competitive personality. A wolf who acted with one single thought: to defeat the saintess. It’s cowardly to do it when she closes her eyes.
“I want to see your expression. Blood.”
“No, don’t open your eyes..!”
As I tried to open her eyes, there were her hands blocking my view with both of her hands. Shy Pinerani. This is precious
“No, the sword will be enough now. Only once.”
“Pervert.. Perverted dog.. Keep your eyes closed..!”
