Chapter 86.2: Kuroki-Sensei’s Honey Lesson
Thereupon, the wooden sword slipped again from my hands.
It flew toward the horizon before finally vanishing from line of sight.
We could only see as the sword flew towards the horizon with a dumbfounded look on our faces.
「The wooden sword… gone again, 」
Poh-chan muttered.
「…I’m sorry, master.」
「EH!! N-No, don’t worry about it, Your Highness! I’ll prepare another wooden sword!!… To think that such thing will happen with just light swing… as expected of the Demon King’s child…」
Master Kuroki quickly waved his hands to stop me from worrying about the lost wooden sword. It looked like he was muttering something at the end but I didn’t hear what he said.
「Well then, I guess I’ll start by showing you an example this time.」
Master Kuroki drew his sword.
It was a black sword with a blood-colored pattern resembling those of blood vessels on its surface. It looks like a powerful demon sword.
「First, you grasp the hilt of the sword like this. And then, swing the sword without putting much strength into it. The key is, only put your power on the moment of contact. Now please take a look.」
After he spoke, Master Kuroki swung his sword.
BWOOOSH!!!
Different from mine, his swing created sound in the air.
Though it looked like a simple swing, it felt like that swing could slice through anything.
His form when swinging his sword was neat without any useless movements.
「OOOOOOOOOH!」
「It’s such a neat swinging form…」
Poh-chan and I ended up being entranced by such a sight.
「Well then Your Highness. This is the last wooden sword. Please take it.」
Master Kuroki took another wooden sword and gave it to me again.
Though he brought his face closer again when he gave the wooden sword, I steeled my heart this time in order to prevent my mouth from leaking a strange voice.
「Now, please relax your arms and hands while raising the sword upward.」
「Yes!」
E-Even if he said so, I ended up putting more power into my grip.
「Relax Your Highness, you’re putting too much power before swinging the wooden sword. Take a deep breath, and release it as you let your shoulder to relax.」
「YES!!! FU――――!!」
I exhaled a breath, and somehow managed to release the tension in my arms and shoulders.
「Keep it that way, and swing it slowly. And then put your power into the swing again when reaches this area.」
Master Kuroki guided me by swinging my sword while touching my hands.
And he did it a few more times.
「Now, please try to swing by yourself.」
Master Kuroki left my side as he said so. Tch!!
I was clicking my tongue.
But, it was impossible for me to not reply properly after he taught me so politely like that.
I grasped the hilt of the wooden sword.
If I’m not wrong, I’m supposed to not put that much power first, right?
I exhaled the air in my lungs to relax my shoulders and arms.
And then raised the wooden sword overhead.
And lastly, I just need to swing it down and add my strength at the last moment.
「HAH!」
So I swing my sword.
BWOOOOOOOOOOOOSH!!!
The moment I put my strength into the swing…
I ended up farting grandiously.
That was really uncool of me.
「Ah, sorry!! It came out! Ahahahaha.」
I turned around while laughing awkwardly.
「EH?!! W-W-WAH!!! POH-CHAN!! ARE YOU OKAY!!?」
Poh-chan who was standing right behind me collapsed on the spot while blowing bubbles from her mouth.
「Your Highness’ fart… is STRONK…」
And then passed out after she said that.
Master Kuroki, who stood by my side, had also fallen on his knees, covering his mouth.
「I should have poison resistance, and yet… This is, impossib—」
And muttered painfully.
「WAIT A MINUTE――――――E!! HANG IN THERE―――――E!! SOMEONE, HE――――ELP!!!」
My voice resounded throughout the training ground.
◆Silver Witch; Kuna
「Kuna-sama~ the Hero and co are making their move~」
Zand, who wore a clown mask, was reporting to Kuna with his usual disgusting voice.
Kuna was currently standing by in the sweets’ castle right now.
Kuroki wasn’t with Kuna.
I heard that he went to teach swordcraft to the demon king’s daughter.
Though I’ve never met her before, I’m sure that her appearance resembled her father, an ugly pig.
Thus, Kuroki had left for the demon king castle today.
Though it was vexing when Kuroki left my side, it wasn’t a big deal since I could return to our mansion in Nargol anytime I wanted to.
Moreover, I didn’t want to show this ugly clown to Kuroki.
But, this clown was really useful. It was thanks to him that I could gather the information about the hero with ease.
Bushkey’s butterflies couldn’t leave Kuna’s side after all. Thus, I need another person to fill in the information gathering duty. And Zand just happened to be suitable to fulfill that position.
「Is that so? What’s their goal this time then? Are they coming to Nargol?」
Kuna asked Zand as she leaned back on the transparent sweet throne.
「NaiNai~. They ain’t coming to Nargo~l. In fact, they might be coming to this pla~ce. What shall we do~. Nihihihihihihi.」
「I see, are they aiming for Kuna?」
「Most probably~.」
Zand replied to Kuna while flying happily around the throne room.
Maybe he was the kind of fella who always high-strung.
In the end, there was nothing that matched him well with him aside from being a clown.
「ALERT!! ALERT!! KUNA-SAMA!! AREN’T YOU GOING TO TELL KUROKI-SAMA ABOUT THIS!!?」
The one who made noise beside me was Tibel the fairy.
Tibel was a fairy with luminous wings that shone in prismatic colors.
She was a noisy girl who came from Aedin’s garden and started to follow Kuna and revered Kuna as a goddess.
Fairies were a race whose appearance resembled that of a human girl but were the size of a palm with butterfly wings on their back.
Tibel might’ve the appearance of a young girl but she was a full-fledged adult fairy.
Tibel’s race had an ugly, worm-like appearance in their childhood.
「Shut up, Tibel. There’s no need to tell Kuroki about this matter. We can just abandon this sweets castle.」
There’s no need to act silly.
Even if they really came, I just needed to abandon this castle. It’s not like we really need this castle to begin with.
「As expected of Kuna-sama~. Not even a twitch when talking about abandoning the sweets castle. KYAHAHAHA.」
「Right?Right?As expected?」
Zand and Tibel were making merry amongst themselves. Seriously, why in the world are only these kinds of noisy fellas gathering around Kuna?
「Well then. Datie. You’re to stop those hero fellas in this castle.」
「Eh!?」
Kuna then spoke to Datie who was waiting behind the sweets throne. It seems she didn’t expect this.
「Do you have any complaints with my decision, Datie?」
Kuna glared at Datie as Kuna asked this question.
「No, Kuna-sama. I’m not complaining. But… Can I… evacuate?」
Datie asked with a timid voice.
「Nope. You have to stay in this place. That’s the reason why you assumed Kuna’s appearance, right?」
Kuna walked toward Datie’s side as she pushed her scythe on Datie’s neck.
「HYIIIII!」
Datie ended up screaming like a slaughtered pig when she felt Kuna’s scythe on her neck.
Kuna had always been wondering why this goblin wanted Kuna’s hair. Only to find out later that she wanted to assume Kuna’s appearance.
There was morphing magic that allowed one to assume the appearance of the others. But, the user needs the hair of the target to be able to do that.
And this idiot actually wanted Kuna’s hair to use that magic.
「You really are a fo~ol. There’s no reason to allow you to appear near Kuroki by using Kuna-sama’s appearance. This is why you goblins are idio~ts.」
Tibel was flying around Datie while making fun of her.
Just as Tibel had said, Datie was planning to approach Kuroki by assuming Kuna’s appearance.
Even if it would make Kuroki feel uncomfortable, Kuna had no reason to stop Datie when all she did was ogling over my Kuroki.
But, there was no way Kuna was going to let Datie deceive Kuroki by assuming Kuna’s appearance.
Thus, Kuna had to punish this stinky goblin.
「That’s right, Datie. You’ll act as my body double. And remember, Kuna will unseal the bug in your body if you dare to escape from the hero.」
Datie looked like she was about to cry upon hearing that.
「Serves you right…」
「Well then, Kuna will go first. Do your best and make a good use of the bugs that Kuna’s leaving in this place, Datie.」
Kuna turned around after she told those words to Datie.
「Do your be~st. See ya, goblin quee~n.」
「Ri~ght. Do your be~st. I’m gonna cheer you from behi~nd, KYAHAHAHAAHA.」
The two noisy fellas were also following after Kuna.
Well then, time to go back to Kuroki’s mansion in Nargol.
