Long time no see, Baron Cain, the hero.

　The one who was waiting for me was Dime, the vice-captain of the Knights of the Kingsguard.

''It's been a while. I'm not a hero, Deputy Commander Dime. I was told by Prime Minister Magna to come and place the demon materials here.''

I just came to tell you. Follow me as I show you around.

　So says Dime and beckons me to join him.
　I follow Dime and he brings me to a small warehouse.

'Can we stay in this warehouse?　I'm putting my demons here.

　The hut was about five meters square.
　As expected, we couldn't fit inside it.

''Vice Commander Dime, I'm sorry, but it's impossible to fit in this room's size.

　Cain says honestly. There were quite a few materials that were in the way. I don't intend to bring out all of them, but I can easily gather materials for A-class demons, so Cain intended to bring out all the demons below that.

How much on earth is in your item box?

This shed should be at least ten. The big ones might not fit in here anymore once they're in there.

Do you happen to have a Red Dragon class that is rumored to be in the compound?

'As expected, I'm not in that class. They are much smaller. Even so, there are still some six-meter class ground dragons in there.

''Wait a minute. A terrestrial dragon is an A-ranked demon, a terrestrial dragon that even adventurers can defeat one in an A-class party?

''I don't know if it's an A-class, but it's a ground dragon. I haven't registered with the Adventurer's Guild, so I don't know about that part.

'More and more, Lord Cain is an unintelligible person. In the meantime, just let me out of here and I'll carry you in the Order.

Okay, I'll just put it out there.

　Cain brings out the carcasses of demons from the item box.
　A six-meter class earth dragon, a ten-meter class earth snake, an ogre king and a swarm of ogres, and quite a few orcs were put out as well. Some of them seemed to be higher-ranking species as well. When they finished bringing them out, a small mountain had formed.

''This much...''

　The inside of the item box is pretty refreshing.

.......

　The dime had hardened.
　It was an impossible situation, all of them from A-class demons to C-class demons. Did he hunt this all by himself?
　It's impossible. It's hard to believe you're five years old, even an A-level adventurer wouldn't be able to go this far.

"Mister Cain, are you a brave man?　Or maybe an apostle of God.

　That was all Dime could do to squeeze that out.
　He freaked out when he heard that he was an apostle.

''Yes, no, I'm normally the third son of the Garum frontier count.

　Cain replies, nervously.

''I won't pry into it too deeply. I'm sure it will take a bit of assessment for this much, so I'll give you the money later.

'His Majesty gave me money for the glass, so I'm not in that much of a hurry. I hope it will be soon.

　Now Cain isn't strapped for money, the sales of Reversi have exploded and all of the money he invested has been returned to him. It's going to be even more amazing when we start selling Venetian glass and toilets with showers.
　The demons are out and I'm feeling refreshed and ready to go home.

'Well, I'll be leaving then,'

　When I turn around, he grabs my shoulder from behind. It's a dime, of course.

'It's still early, okay?　Why don't you come join us for a moment to train the Order?　Let's just have a tour for now.

　Then he grabbed me by the shoulder and took me away.


　And now, Cain is standing in the middle of the knights' training grounds with a wooden sword.
　There are about thirty strong knights surrounding him.

　The time goes back a bit (a little while ago).

''It's Baron Cain, the heroic Baron Cain, you've heard about the orc extermination.

　Dime introduces Cain to the knights.

　People around him questioned whether such a child really defeated an orc.
　Of course, there were some knights who were there at the time, but they looked at Cain and took civility.

''Because today, Baron Cain will also be participating in the training of the knights.

　The dime speaks lightly.

'Are you sure?　He really does look like a child, doesn't he?　You're five years old, right?　Are you sure the Kingsguard is right to deal with them?

　One knight, unaware of Cain's abilities, asks Dime.

'If you think so, then go ahead and do it first. Lord Cain, please.'

　The knight who questioned Dime stepped forward by himself.

'Lord Cain, I'll give you a hand first. I will give you a hand first.

　I can see the confidence that he is a member of the Kingsguard. It's an adult's margin.
　It can't be helped, so Cain attacks ahead of me.
　 He tries a short-range instantaneous movement (short warp). He uses it for movement, but had never tried it against a person.

　Cain holds up a child's wooden sword. He builds up his magic and casts a spell.　
'Short Range Instantaneous Movement (Short Warp)'
　In an instant, he got behind the knight and placed the wooden sword against his back. I wanted to hit him in the neck, but he's not tall enough.

''That's it.''

　The knight who lost sight of him was suddenly poked from behind with a wooden sword and was confused.
　He had been in front of me until now. And then suddenly he disappeared.
　And then he was poked from behind with a wooden sword.


"...... I'm here.

　The knight answered honestly.

'I can't believe it. I didn't know it was this far. I didn't see it at all. What is this boy?

　The knights around them are also confused.

''Did you see that?''
I didn't see it at all.
You disappear and they come up behind you. You can't keep up with them.

''You're indeed a heroic Baron Cain, so far. One person won't be enough. Why don't we try it with the 30 men we have now?

'Yeah. Hey, that's .......

　Cain is surprised. As expected, thirty people is too many. They have enough status to kill them all in an instant.

All right, let's go. Let's go, everybody!

　At Dime's signal, the thirty members of the Kingsguard surrounded Cain.

　And then it was the situation we saw earlier.

　The thirty of them pointed their swords at one child.

　And everyone was on the verge of jumping on it.

''What is this?!''

　Everyone stopped moving.
　Then one person walked into the circle.
　She was a beautiful woman with blonde hair, about twenty years old. Her blonde hair was tied back and out of the way.
　Her ears are long. She looks like an elf. Cain can't hide his surprise at the pale appearance of the elven knight.
　Everyone takes civility.

''What are you doing with such a large gathering of kinsmen knights, sword against such a child?

　After saying it, he turns around and gets down on his knees to look at me.

'You, were you okay?'

　He pats me on the head. That's what a five-year-old's response would be like. Then he hugged me.

'I know it was scary being around all these people. You're fine now that I'm here. I'm here to help you get lost. Where are your parents?

'Knight Commander, that person is ......'

　Dime calls out to the Knight Commander.
　Cain was surprised to learn that this beautiful woman was the Knight Commander.

'Dime, why didn't you stop her while this thing called you was with her?

　He narrowed his eyes and asked the dime tightly.

'The boy is the Baron Cain from the last time we talked about this ....... 'Of that hero.'

　Dime replies apologetically.

'No way! A kid like this?

　As expected, the Knight Commander seems surprised.

　The knight commander stares at me.

I see. So that's it. You're the hero. Huh. Then shall we have a mock battle instead?

　Cain was surprised when the mock battle sounded like a duel.
　The Knight Commander suddenly brought out a mock sword.


''Commander, I thought you'd like to introduce yourself first.

　Dime tells him again, apologetically.

'Swordsmen should share with swords first. Then we'll know.

　The Knight Commander holds up his sword.

''The leader's bad habit again is ....... When he sees that you are strong, he challenges you to a mock fight. Doesn't the leader have the title of "swordsman"?　Even Baron Cain can't do that, can he?

　The members of the Kingsguard are talking. While keeping a distance as the circle widens.

　Excuse me, I can hear you. What's the matter with you, Swordsman?

Baron Cain, it's time to go!

Wait a minute!

　Cain tries to stop it.
　The knight commander rushed in without a care in the world.
　It's a speed that I can't believe is human. He must have used body strengthening.
　The knight leader flashes his sword from above.
　I'm not going to be able to get my hands on any of them. Then, in the opposite direction, he flashes his sword from the side.
　The knight leader's eyes widen at how easily he was able to avoid it and catches Cain's sword as he swings it to the side with his sword.
　Cain jumps backwards and keeps his distance.

'Baron Cain, I was caught off guard when I heard you were a child. This is going to be some serious fun.''

　After a smirk on his mouth, the Knight Commander mutters something, and the wind is clothed around the Commander.

''Let's go.''

　I'm swinging my sword at a different speed than before.
　As expected, it's not going to be like the one I ducked just now with room to spare. I'm not going to be able to get a good idea of what to do with it. After that, the swords continue to strike each other at a speed that is unthinkable for a human being.

''Hey, Baron Cain, you're striking a decent match with the Knight Commander. I can't believe it.

　The members of the group muttered. The speed of the two of them is so fast that even the surrounding Konoe Order can barely follow them with their eyes.
　This won't end anytime soon, so Cain jumps in with another rank of physical enhancement. Then, he flicks back the knight leader's sword and thrusts it directly at his neck.

''This is the end, isn't it?''

　Cain lowers the sword he held at his neck and tells him.

　The Knight Commander's eyes widen, then his cheeks are stained.



''I've decided to .......''








"I will marry you.

　Cain and the other knights around him were all crestfallen at that one word.
