Oh....
This is our....

　Yae and Hilda let out a voice as they looked up at the two frame gears standing in front of them.
　One side is a wisteria-colored armored warrior. The plane is designed like Japanese armor, with an elongated crescent moon decoration on the helmet. That was a reference to the helmet of the warlord Date Masamune. It is equipped with a large sword and wakizashi at the waist, and its back and legs are equipped with verniers for increased mobility.
　Due to the "Accel" effect contained in the magic slot, it can create instantaneous super acceleration. This makes it possible to finish off enemies with a surprise attack or launch a series of attacks.
　Its defensive capabilities are not that high, but on the other hand, its quick movements and the sharp cutting power of its shining sword allow it to take down enemies in an instant, making it a Godspeed machine.
　This is Yae's special frame gear, the 'Schwerdtite'.
　In contrast, the orange fuselage that stands beside it. A knight wearing heavy armor and decorated with black ornaments in its main color of orange. It is equipped with a wide long sword and a large shield, and its defense is higher than that of the eighteenth fuselage.
　The shark's dorsal fins, which extend from its back, transform into a large, large sword for use against advanced species. I've also given it "modelling", so it can be transformed into a long sword of twice its length.
　The shield also transforms into a spiraling cone, and when attached to the tip of the shield with the mace attached to the back of its waist, it transforms into a drill lance. When the magic power is applied, it spins at high speed and can crush the enemy into pieces.
　This is Hilda's special frame gear, 'Sieglune'.
　The two climbed into each of the two frame gears and continued to break in, checking their movements by swinging their swords and running them.

The reaction speed is much faster than the black knight, that it is..... You can control it as if it were your own body, that it is.
''His strength is also incomparably superior. With this, even against an advanced breed...''
''Don't get too carried away. ''Don't get too cautious. Be careful.

　In fact, even the newer models are not invincible. I'd like to be able to withstand those charged particle cannons, but even Yae and the others couldn't do that.
　Based on the data we measured, we're going to equip Sue's plane with armor that can withstand that.
　After the operational test of the Schwertrite and Sieglune was finished, we returned to the castle, and I took Sakura and Benigama on my way to the "Silver Moon" below the castle. It seems that the dark elf's sister, who had been cured of the Demonic Hardness Disease, had woken up. This morning, the employees of the "Silver Moon" came to the castle to inform her.
　She seems to be in good physical condition and has a good appetite, so she seems to be completely cured, but, well, I just wanted to check on her just in case.
　We knocked on the door and walked into the room, where we found Fleur-san sitting in a chair and her dark elf sister who had raised her upper body from the bed.
　As soon as Fleur-san introduced us, she got off the bed, got down on both knees and bowed deeply. Hey! Please don't get down on your knees!

I can't thank you enough for saving my life. I never thought that His Majesty King Brunhild would be able to heal me. I, Spica Frennel, will lay down my life for you.

　You're overreacting! No, not so much when you consider that your life was saved?

Hmm, I hope you don't think about it too much. Anyway, I'm glad you're cured of your illness. If you want, I can send you to the Demon Kingdom of Xenoas with transfer magic?

　From above, but I've been to the Xenoas roadway before. I can open the 'gate' there.

'No I don't have a place to go back to in the country.... I'm going to try to find some work here. Since it's hard to get demons hired in other countries.

　Spica-san smiles a small smile, as if in pain. Is there some reason why I can't go home? Everyone said that in the Demon Kingdom, many dark elves come from prominent families.

''Speaking of work.......is there something you're good at?
'I served in the military registry at Xenoas, as a bodyguard. If it were possible, I would be willing to do the same job here...

　A bodyguard. That means they were pretty high up in the elite, right? It's true that this man has a vaguely military-like speech. What does it mean that a person like that can't return to his country?

"King........can't you do something about his job?
'What? Hmmm... well, I could hire you in the Order, but...

　It's rare that Sakura cares about others. She's so self-paced, in a good way and a bad way. Spica-san also looks at me.

''Can't you do something for me, please...?''
'Let me put it this way, but I'm a member of the Hira group, okay? And the pay is so low ... are you okay with that?
Yes. I'm sure I can help you.

　Spica-san turned her eyes straight to me. I could feel a glimmer of determination or something like that.

Then, let's do a test to see if you want to join the team. I can't make a decision on my own,
Nice to meet you!

　Spica-san bows her head again. So please don't get down on your knees........

''........Good for you.
'Yes! Thank you, Sakura-sama.
No siree.
'What? But if you're Her Majesty's fiancée, then with a certain amount of respect...

　No, no, no. It's different. There are many, but not this one.
　When I told her about Sakura's situation, Spica-san nodded her head in agreement.

''I see. The memories..... I understand how painful it must be for you...''
Not at all. There's so much going on in this country. You'll love it, Spica. I assure you.

　Sakura plainly replied as if it was nothing. Hearing that, Spica-san looked bemused for a moment, but then she smiled as if she was seeing something familiar.

'I've been told the same thing before. ........Sakura-sama is a strange person. You look like someone I know.
No siree.
No, you saved my life too. Losing this debt of gratitude will hurt our family name. I know the family name is a bit of a downer, but at least...

　Spica-san unexpectedly held her mouth. She held her mouth as if to say that she had said something bad.
　It sounds like something happened in the Demon Kingdom that could stain the family name. I'm not going to get into the details.
　Anyway, as long as you're feeling well, I'll take you to see Yumina first. I think she'll be fine, but she needs to be looked at with her evil eye.
　I open the gate and go out into the castle courtyard. Leaving Spica-san, who is scurrying around the area, surprised at her first transition, I asked Red Ball to go get Yumina.
　When Yumina arrives a short time later, Spica-san kneels down and bows her head in awe at the appearance of her fiancé this time. It's not surprising, since Yumina is not only my fiancée, but also the princess of Belfast.

'Please stand up. Spica-san, you said?
Ha!

　Yumina's gaze shot straight through Spica-san as she stood up. After a moment of silence, Yumina smiled at her.

''No problem. As a Knight of Brunhild, I think you have a heart worthy of being a Knight of Brunhild.
Thank you...?

　Kyoton and Spica-san stand there with a curious expression on their faces, wondering what's "not a problem". Apparently, it seems to have met Yumina's expectations.

''Well, let's see what you're capable of next time. Please follow me.

　We walked through the courtyard and headed towards the training grounds in the back.
　As usual, everyone seems to be working hard on their training today. At the edge of the training grounds, the beaten knights are stretched out with all their strength. Wait, how many people are there? Too many! It's your sister Morobane, isn't it....
　When they saw us coming to the training grounds, they tried to stop their hands once, but when I motioned for them to continue, they started training again without regard.
　Even so, they are still curious about Spica-san, and they glance at me here and there. Dark elves are rare, and she's a beautiful woman. It can't be helped.

''Well. Oi, Nicola-san.
Yes. Yes, Your Majesty.

　I called the deputy commander, Nicola, who was just polishing a training halberd on a bench in the corner.
　I asked her to see how many people she could mend with as she tested Spica's enlistment.
　When I took her to the training weapons storage area to have her choose her prey, Spica-san picked up a sword and shield. He swung them around a bit to check their weight, and then headed to the training area.
　He confronted his opponent, whom Nicola had chosen, and they curtsied to each other before raising their weapons. The opponent was a spear user.
　As soon as the match begins, a number of thrusts are launched at Ms. Spica. She blocked all of them with her shield, dived into her bosom, and released a sharp sword strike.
　All of the spear attacks were blocked by her shield and did not reach her at all. Taking advantage of the gap, Spica-san rushed in with her shield and paid off her opponent's legs while throwing him off balance.
　He thrust his sword at the fallen opponent and the game was won.

''Shield, that is.''
The Shield.

　Yae and Hilda, who had come to the side before I knew it, murmured respectively. Surprise. You're here.
　What's wrong with the shield? It looks like a nondescript shield, but....

That's more of a guardianship technique to protect someone than a sword technique to defeat the enemy, that it is. It's a swordsmanship that catches the enemy's attack, deflects it, and prevents it from advancing any further. It is a swordsmanship that takes the initiative, that it is.
What's amazing is that he shifts the position of the shield to catch the attacker, letting him catch it and disperse the force. It's not just a lack of response, it could even make you lose your stance. It's going to be hard to do.

　Arm-pushing on the curtain, nails on the bran. That's about it. Take the attack, put the opponent in a position where it's difficult for them to move on to the next attack or defense, and then take them down there. I think that would certainly make it possible to disable the opponent in combat without killing him. Of course, you could also take advantage of an opening and kill your opponent.

''Which means that if I don't have my shield........''
It will be less than half as effective, I'm afraid.

　I suppose you can pass it off with a sword as well, but it's certainly going to be difficult to surpass it in the same way as a shield. Swordplay with a shield, huh? It's certainly unusual.

"Originally, there is a shield dedicated to that swordsmanship. Among the demon race, her Frennel family boasts an ironclad defense technique. One of the five noble families that assist the Demon King.

　Sakura opens her mouth as she looks at Spica-san, who defeats her second opponent in the same way. How well you know that kind of thing.

''........and the book said so. The Frennel family is famous. Maybe she's from there too.
I see. How could someone from such a famous family drift to a place like this again.......

　There seems to be a reason why you can't tell people, but let's not pry. You're not a bad person, that's for sure, since Yumina has given her stamp of approval. If you made some irreversible mistake over there and are here to get your life back on track, that's fine too.
　After watching the match, Nicola-san judged that he was competent enough, so I approved Spica-san's admission to the Brunhild Knights.
