Soichiro Kuzuki's mechanically rigorous work and rest habits were already well-known in the city of Ulduar. He is one of the few adults here, and compared to the other two, his mother is a bit naturally stupid and his personality is slightly weaker. As Elulu learned a lot, the strong sense of oppression brought about by Kuzuki Soichiro's rigorous style made everyone intuitively regard him as the leader of the team.
After enjoying lunch, everyone did not rush to leave but sat in the restaurant and listened.
"The Kingdom of Saxony recently arrested a criminal across the country. So far, many territories are under martial law, and martial law will be implemented here soon."
"What does that have to do with us?"
Little Bean Edward said disapprovingly, at least in his opinion, this seems to be just an internal matter of the Kingdom of Saxony. Although this country is a small country, it is at least half as big as the country of Mestelis in the original world. It's big and small, and it's in a remote location in terms of environment, so even just one person might not find it here.
Soichiro Kuzuki still had a poker face and said calmly: "Although there is only one person, the other person seems to have the power to control people's hearts. To be on the safe side, girls should not go out often during the period of martial law."
At the end of the sentence, Kuzuki also specially added that the girl Nakagami Tomoyo was excluded, which made a group of girls speechless. However, there was nothing they could do about it. In this team, apart from Soichiro Kusuzaki and the two brothers Edward and Al, only Sakagami Tomoyo was left. Although Touma and Weber are fantasy killers who can be called bugs, their combat capabilities are too weak. Although Weber knows magic, he is more focused on research and In terms of support rather than frontal combat, as for Liu Angxing, it is better for the chef to cook at home or not to run around outside.
After saying that, Kuzumu was the first to stand up. After everyone left in twos and threes, he helped the two mothers clear the table and clean up with Elulu and Licia. During this period, Sanae asked Kuzumu for some magic potions. That was When leaving Ulduar, Caster Medea gave him the potion in return for Kuzumu's arrangement of the library. It is said that it can cure many different types of diseases. After arriving in the Jihar territory of the Kingdom of Saxony, everyone fell ill because they could not adapt to the environment. They relied on these magic potions to recover so quickly. Nagisa's health seemed to be in poor condition, but everyone was almost fine. She was the only one left who was not completely healed.
"I know, I'll bring it to you later." Kuzumu nodded and said.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Kuzuki."
Kuzumu's face remained calm as he thanked the wife, "No need to thank you. It was Yalin who entrusted me to protect you."
guard!
This word is really too unfamiliar to me. My fists have been designed to kill people from the day they were born. In fact, I understand it this way. Martial arts are used to destroy and hit enemies. , some martial artists say that martial arts practitioners cannot use force to restrain themselves from using force. They have never been able to understand that since they don’t want to hurt others, and since they can’t use force as they wish, why should they practice martial arts
But these days... it seems that I can understand it more or less.
And on the other side…
After finishing his lunch, Touma returned to his room in boredom and had nothing to do. Although he said goodbye to his most painful studies after coming to the different world, the most painful thing for him at the same time was that he could no longer learn new things. , such as magic. It seems that Mingyue and Nagisa can more or less sense the elements, but as long as they have Fantasy Killer with magic and elements, they will definitely not be able to coexist with themselves.
How should I position myself in this world
Touma looked at the falling snowflakes outside with some distress. This problem had always troubled him in the city of Ulduar. In addition to the Fantasy Killer that could erase all strange visions, as a high school student, he did not have much fighting ability. Without any spells, in this different world, he is just like a mortal who is too ordinary to be ordinary. Although Senior Yalin said that it doesn't matter if he just eats free rice in the city of Ulduar, as a human being, when he encounters traveling through another world This kind of adventure can only appear in light novels. No matter what, I want to do something to express myself.
"Why don't you go ask Mr. Kuzuki for boxing lessons? Mr. Kuzuki is just an ordinary person like me. Since he can learn it, I can definitely learn it too." Touma sighed and finally found a way for himself. Since he If you can't learn magic, just turn to physics. I am still very confident in my physical fitness. At least I have also won the ranking in the Daiba Xing Festival.
If you think of it, do it!
Wearing a windbreaker to keep out the cold, he came outside. If I remember correctly, Touma believed that Mr. Kuzumu would train in the small garden outside the mansion on time every day. The purpose was to ensure that his skills would not decline over time, but when he saw the outside Yes, when Kuzuki Soichiro actually continued to box with his upper body bare-chested despite the severe cold, Touma found that the confidence he had finally accumulated was a little lacking.
I probably won't be able to reach the level of Mr. Kuzuki in this life.
He bravely expressed his request to Kuzumu who was in training. For this seemingly ridiculous request, Kuzumu took Touma's bones very seriously and tested his physical fitness. The answer he got later was that Touma's physique is There's no problem, it's just that I'm a little older and have missed the prime time to learn martial arts. Even if I start training from now on, it will take at least a year to gain anything. I can teach Touma the boxing skills, but the problem is that Touma has There is no such perseverance.
"I can teach you boxing skills, but the problem is that you must have the perseverance to train every day. If you are willing, I will teach you boxing skills without reservation, but I will not allow you to be lazy. I will monitor you and supervise you. I guarantee that you must study and train every day. No matter whether it is windy or rainy or you break a bone, it will not stop. And when the time comes, I will not accept any form of regret from you. There is only one way for you to go, and that is to completely learn this. Do you want to practice boxing and get my approval?"
Touma, who was almost unable to lift his head under the pressure of Kuzumu's aura, said after a long time, dripping with cold sweat, "Well...can you let me think about it?"
"Give me a reply within three days. If you don't reply after three days, I will regard you as giving up and not accepting this request." After Kuzuki finished speaking, he ignored Touma and continued his training.
At this moment, a dark-colored horse galloped over and stopped outside the mansion wall. When he saw Touma and Kuzumu, a young knight on the horse who looked only slightly older than Touma immediately greeted him. : "Are they Mr. Kuzuki and Touma? I'm sorry to disturb you."
"Jetlo~Lord!"
Kuzuki nodded silently in response, but Touma became a little uneasy because this young man was the lord of this territory.
The young lord looked at Touma helplessly and corrected him angrily: "It's Gerota Jihar! Gerota Jihar is my name."
"Ah~ I'm sorry, Lord Lord." Touma said apologetically with a look of shame on his face.
Lord! In Japan, they are like mayors and ancient feudal lords. For Touma, who comes from an ordinary family, the identity of the other party is simply inherently oppressive to him, although he has seen him in Ulduar City before. A person with a greater status, but maybe because they were too familiar with each other as classmates, they didn't care. Now facing this young young lord, I found that I was subconsciously afraid of him.
Gerota Guichard! His surname has the same name as the Jihar territory. In fact, it is not only the same name. Jihar's ancestors were one of the founding heroes of the Kingdom of Saxony and were awarded the title of marquis. After the establishment of the Kingdom of Saxony, they were given this land. The territory was specifically named after its form in order to commemorate its merits. Geralota's father unfortunately died while leading the territorial army to Belika Fortress to fight against the Og barbarians. At that time, Geralota was still young and could not govern. For this reason, the dominance of the territory was temporarily inherited by his mother, and when Gerlotta came of age, the territorial rights naturally returned to the young man's hands. So far, Gerlotta is now the youngest lord in the entire Kingdom of Saxony. This year Only nineteen years old.
Although young Geralta's temperament still has the characteristics of impatient and restless young people, and he needs his mother's assistance in governance, this young lord is also growing very fast, especially Jiha recently. In the process of the Er territory introducing investment in mineral development from the Free City Blackstone Ring Chamber of Commerce, Gerota has already shown the qualifications to become an excellent lord in the future while bargaining for the interests of the territory, and it can already be expected. In the future, the territory that will develop rapidly due to mineral development has attracted many civilians from other lords to enter and settle here, making this originally relatively remote territory begin to prosper day by day.
"Um, what's the matter? Lord."
Seeing that the lord actually came here on horseback, although he knew that the other person liked to travel alone, Touma also understood that the lord was not just here to say hello, not to mention that there was a person living here. A person that the young lord cares about very much.
Geralta smiled and said without any pretense as if she were meeting an ordinary friend: "Actually, it's like this. It's my sister Galseiya's 16th birthday in two days, and Galseiya wants to invite Licia. The lady is going to a birthday party with her friends, so I would like you to tell her a little bit."
"Ah~ that's right, I understand." Touma scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "But people of our status, come to participate... okay?"
"It doesn't matter. It's just a small birthday party anyway. My mother and I usually celebrate Garseiya's birthday. This year, Garseiya is 16 and an adult, so we want to have a more lively party, so you guys also Get up and play."
At this point, Gerlotta turned the horse's head and said, "Please tell Miss Licia that you can invite as many friends as you want~"
"I understand, I will tell you."
"Then I'm sorry to trouble you, but Miss Licia must come to the birthday party when the time comes~"
Before leaving, Gerota turned around and said, as if he was afraid that Touma would forget about it.
