Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 86

86 Just before Hwa-dong opens.

In the darkest and coldest dawn, Eilen suddenly opened her eyes.

Since awakening to the Force, it has been very easy to wake up exactly at the desired time.

Moreover, today is the starting point of a new life.

I had no intention of being lazy.

– I’ll see you at the training hall tomorrow morning at dawn.

As I recalled Logan’s words and reconsidered my will, my body immediately responded.

After getting up from the bed, I checked my condition and immediately changed into simple uniform.

And for a moment, I looked at the ordinary armor lying in the corner of the room.

– This is the only armor that fits the princess’s body type. For the time being, I will be training with this armor.

In general, unusually small armor compared to larger-sized knights.

It was equipment that Logan had bought in a city where we stopped by on the way to McLane, but it wasn’t a very good product to say the least.

The only thing that is useful is that it has been improved so that heavy armor can be worn alone.

However, when I thought of it as equipment that would start a new life together, I became strangely attached to it.

“Please take care of me in the future.”

Eilen greeted the armor as if she were a friend and skillfully put it on.

It took only 30 minutes to finally pack up the sword and leave the door.

The anticipation of a new life seemed to have made her body feel more cheerful.

‘What kind of path will Prince Logan show me?’

What kind of training will you do and what kind of knight will you become?

Logan’s swordsmanship overwhelmed him with just simple movements.

Would he be able to learn that swordsmanship too?

My heart is pounding.

The excitement erased even the slight fatigue from the trip.

That’s how we arrived at the training ground.

“female?”

“Was the rumor true?”

“What else are you going to do, Prince Heo?…”

In front of the knights who become noisy as soon as they see him.

“Oh my god. It was true.”

With Padric clutching his head, Eilen finally encountered the barrier she had fully expected.

“I’m not going to joke about something like that, Dad.”

“Yeah, I know, but I was hoping it was a joke.”

“Absolutely not.”

At Logan’s firm words, Padric sighed and looked at his eldest son again.

“Logan. It’s a woman. In the history of our kingdom, a woman has never been a knight!”

“Father. She is not just a woman, but someone who has awakened the Force. We are now in a situation where we need to recruit at least one more talented person. Aren’t more than half of the knights here originally from other families? They are women. “Why not?”

“You crazy bastard, she’s even your fiancee! You’re going to train your fiancee to be a knight?!”

“yes.”

“Ok.”

Padrick, who read the firm will in his son’s eyes, eventually made another excuse.

“Currently, the training of the McLane Knights is much harsher than that of other knights. No matter how talented a woman is, even a noble woman can endure it…” “

Ha…”

My father also got stabbed once by an imperial female knight. If you look at it, those thoughts will disappear.

Logan sighs as he remembers his past life.

A sudden shout broke out between the two.

“I can do it too!”

A high, sharp, yet strong voice filled with determination.

The eyes of everyone gathered in the training hall turned to the owner of the voice.

“I will make you completely abandon the idea that being a woman is not good enough!”

Eilen’s emerald eyes were shining so intensely that they seemed like sparks were flying.

Logan figured that probably everyone who saw her felt that way.

Thanks to this, he was able to add one more word with confidence.

“If the princess fails in training, I will no longer insist.”

The stern-faced Padric could not make a decision easily.

The stubborn knight thought for a while and reluctantly nodded.

“…Then that’s fine. I will ‘temporarily’ allow the princess to join.”

Let me get the word “temporary” out of the way.

Eilen gritted his teeth and strengthened his resolve once again.

But half a day later.

Eilen, who had started training with great enthusiasm, was lying face down on the floor, shaking.

‘These bastards are all crazy.’

I was just going to do it until the training started with a canter outside McLane Town, which seemed like it would be 30km at best.

However, when he did a mountain canter instead of riding a horse, I thought he was joking, and when he climbed a cliff while hanging a rock three times his body weight, it just seemed like he was crazy.

‘What kind of knight order in the world does this kind of training?’

To that extent, the training of the McLane Knights was a far cry from the knighthood training she had imagined.

As much as she admired knights, she also had some common sense about them.

However, the training of the McLane Knights was beyond her common sense.

Even though she thought she was well prepared, she scraped the force to the bottom and barely managed to not fall.

If the people who do this kind of training aren’t crazy…

‘I guess I saw the world too easily.’

Feeling devastated, I forced my head up and looked around.

Knights with similar appearances spread around her. It was clear that he was exhausted, but no one had reached a state of true exhaustion like him.

What really made me angry was that among those people, there were many whose force was weaker than mine.

That fact touched her old trauma.

‘Because they’re men…’

And I’m physically weaker because I’m a woman?

‘no! It’s just that I lack training!’

It’s not because she’s a woman. I will prove it myself.

I suppressed my miserable feelings and filled my heart with the sorrow that arose.

Then, my body, which I thought was at its limit, was forced to move.

“Ok.”

Eilen regained her posture with trembling hands and slowly relaxed.

If I had passed out, I would have suffered aftereffects that would have taken several hours to recover after waking up.

I needed to relax my tense muscles for the sake of tomorrow.

Then I heard a familiar voice.

“It seems like it’s more worth doing than I thought.”

“Of course… Prince Logan!”

It was only after Eilen reflexively responded that she was able to recall the owner of the voice.

“Luckily, I can keep my promise.”

“of course.”

“You don’t regret it?”

“…can.”

“yes?”

“I regret it because I feel like I haven’t trained properly.”

The red-eyed man, who was momentarily surprised by those words, laughed again.

“Then can we look forward to more in the future?”

“…As much as you want.”

This time it wasn’t just because he came.

I don’t know why he looked at me like that, but I could feel a great expectation in Logan’s red eyes.

– What an article she is!

My own dream that has always been ignored and interrupted.

Now there are people who support and look forward to it.

That alone was enough reason to be strong.

A week later.

Logan was smiling as he watched the knights who started training with the Iron Blood Sword from afar after completing physical training.

To be precise, the corners of my mouth naturally rose as I saw one of them, a knight who looked particularly small, whining and learning the basic form of the Iron Blood Sword.

‘I’ll adapt well.’

Despite my obvious lack of physical strength, I continued to train tenaciously for a week and did not fail even once.

When I looked at the articles secretly, they seemed to recognize their perseverance even if they did not know their skills.

At least it didn’t seem like he was begrudgingly praising her as his fiancé.

You may not know it right now, but if you continue to show that kind of attitude, Eilen will eventually be accepted into the Knights.

And that will be an indicator that adds new possibilities to the McLine he will create.

‘Of course, if we make the most of this difficult time or opportunity, that possibility can blossom.’

From now on, it was time to prepare to seize that opportunity.

[Soldier Training Progress Report – Kaisolon]

[Food and Weapon Management Report (Special. Crossbow) – Rugel Heiss]

[Accounting Report (Related to Philip Top) – Dwayne Pilsner]

Logan, who woke up from a night’s meditation, reviewed up to last night. I held the report in my hand.

‘On paper, there is no problem. Now all I have to do is actually check.’

It seemed like his father and his retainers had done their job well while he was away.

Now all I had to do was check it myself, fill in the gaps, organize them, and wait for the right time.

Logan left his room, thinking over the things he needed to check in his head.

The time when dawn begins to slowly dawn.

The fresh air calms your mood.

The fast moving steps suddenly slowed down and changed direction.

A familiar and familiar feeling caught his senses.

And then we arrived at the dance hall behind the official residence.

Paaaaang!

The first thing I heard was the sound of a blunt training iron sword tearing through the air.

A person who continues to swing his sword with a stern expression, as if not even feeling the morning sunlight that is slowly starting to shine.

His face still looks young enough to be considered an adult, but not too childish to be considered a boy.

A familiar-looking young man with red hair and red eyes like himself was swinging a sword while sweating.

‘Ronian?’

Looking at my uniform soaked in sweat, it didn’t seem like I had just started.

‘I’m practicing swordsmanship even before the sun rises.’

It was clearly not the training schedule he had set.

‘That alone would be pretty tight.’

Too much is just as bad as too little.

Especially when it comes to martial arts training that uses the body, there is no more solid truth than this.

If you overwork your body beyond its limits, it will only end up damaging your body.

‘There’s no way you wouldn’t know.’

Logan approached his younger brother with a somewhat stern expression.

But the closer I got, the more I felt an inexplicable sense of déjà vu from the sight of my younger brother gritting his teeth.

I feel like I’ve seen a similar scene like this once.

However, his younger brother, who was always smiling in front of him, had never shown such an expression.

At least in this life….

‘Ah!’

At that moment, a memory that had been lingering in my mind suddenly emerged.

Memories of the last time I saw my brother in my past life.

The appearance of Auror user Ronian McLane, blocking the west gate of the capital city of Gran and frantically cutting down enemies.

The desperate face of a warrior who shined so noble just before falling miserably.

That image overlapped with Ronian’s current appearance.

‘Why that guy now?’

There was no mention of an immediate war, let alone a future crisis.

All he has to do is grow up hard and become an Auror user like in his previous life.

I had no intention of putting any more pressure on myself.

That’s why Ronian’s solemnity felt even more strange.

widely.

“Oh brother!”

The guy who was engrossed in training turned his head at the sound of footsteps made without thinking.

The expression on his face brightens as soon as he discovers himself.

His younger brother approached him with a bright smile on his face, as if the stern face just moments before had been a lie.

“When on earth did you start training? It’s too early.”

“Haha. I can’t sleep.”

“Excessive training is poison. You know that, right?”

“Yes. I know, brother.”

“A guy like that…”

Logan’s eyes turned to his younger brother’s hand.

Blood from his right hand, which was clutching an iron sword, was dripping down the sword bottle.

“Swing the sword until your grip explodes? ”

“Huh?!”

My younger brother looked at his hand with a surprised expression and immediately put his right hand behind his back.

It was a foolish action, like a bird that thinks something doesn’t exist if it can’t be seen.

My hand burst and bleeding. I can’t even feel the pain.

‘It’s so serious.’

Logan’s expression became distorted.

“I’m sorry. “Brother.”

“You shouldn’t be sorry to me… haha. No, no. Is there a reason to focus so much on training? Is there something frustrating?”

“…No. “Nothing in particular.”

It was obvious that he was lying when he openly avoided eye contact.

He was so naive that you wouldn’t think he was a boy who would soon turn seventeen.

Feeling frustrated, I just stared at him.

He lowered his head to avoid eye contact. Another word came out of the guy’s mouth:

“I don’t think I do anything for the family.”

“Hmm?”

“Even if it’s not as good as my brother, I also want to be someone who helps the people in need in the family…” ”

I couldn’t do that. Same?”

“Yes. Victor has basic duties as a knight, but I am the lord’s son and have no duties whatsoever.”

“That’s…”

“So I’m just doing what I can right now as hard as I can.”

“….”

In this situation. Logan didn’t have anything special to say.

He just repeated the same request as always.

“Okay. Still, I have to take care of my body and train. Once again, too much is just as bad as not having enough. Especially training.”

“Yes. I’ll keep that in mind, brother.”

I didn’t feel reassured for some reason, but Logan didn’t say any more.

“Okay. I believe it.”

He simply patted his younger brother’s shoulder and turned around and left the training hall.

There was no reason for him to dig too deep.

In his previous life, he was the one who led the ruined family alone and withstood the Empire’s offensive until the very end.

Physically , This guy had much better qualities than I originally had, both mentally and physically.

I believed that he would overcome it even if there were hardships that he didn’t tell me about.

But…

As soon as he was out of sight, his younger brother’s mutterings pierced his ears.

Logan had no choice but to stop his steps again.

“Brother, you’ve already gone too far, and Viktor is following you so closely that you can even hear his breathing. “I’m not good enough, so all I know is how to run like crazy.”

The words that I thought were inaudible followed by the explosive sound.

It was clear that he was swinging the sword again with a torn grip.

‘Oh no…’

That’s why I made this guy and Viktor my training partners. It was meant to stimulate each other.

But it was so excessive that Logan couldn’t help but feel absurd that his younger brother was pushing himself so hard. His younger

brother, who he thought was gentle, had a much stronger fighting spirit than he thought.

But the moment he tried to go back and stop him. Another thought caught his ankle.

‘That guy’s face…’

The face that had reached the level of an Auror user in his past life was similar to the one he has now.

Those who are said to have surpassed the limits of a superhuman and gained superpowers. Thanks to

their efforts. Could it simply be said in terms of the logic of efficiency?

A past life in which the family was practically ruined.

Did the younger brother, who became an Auror user without a teacher, make the efficient efforts that everyone knows?

For some reason, I thought it would not be possible.

‘… Even if you make a mistake once, you will have to do it again. You can stand up. It’s not too late to help.’

For now, let’s watch his younger brother’s efforts and will.

Logan withdrew his gaze and took a hard step forward.
