Chapter 29

Chapter 29

I don’t know anything else, but the probability of me winning against Killian in this sparring was close to nil.

Until I was eighteen, I almost always beat Kylian. To be precise, it was possible because he thoroughly hid the fact that he had become a sword master.

Of course, I knew of Killian’s power because I had read the original story, but I didn’t trust Duke Percival and didn’t tell him about it. The reason he was shot in the original story was because he was wearing a power control device to hide that he was a sword master.

And he wasn’t a person who could control it very well when he had just reached the level of a sword master. But I didn’t mean to do this sparring without thinking.

The glove he threw at me to duel was still with me. I couldn’t fight wearing a priest’s uniform, so I borrowed a swording uniform and wore it. However, no matter how I look at it, it was clear that this suit was made for my original body as Anais.

Since Lilith and I had similar physiques, I could wear these clothes with Lilith’s body without any problems. Of course, Anais’ body was much more muscular, toned and taller. I was someone who prided myself on my hands as much as my face. All of my palms were calloused, but the backs of my hands were as white, soft, and beautiful as they were.

From the moment I gripped the sword, the beauty of this hand had to be abandoned. But even if it’s the palm of my hand, if you take good care of the back of the hand, you can manage to keep it pretty. Of course, if I hadn’t held the sword, I could be confident that my palm would have been pretty.

It was for this reason that I kept paying attention to Lilith’s rough hands. No matter how I looked at her hands or face, my preference was closer to Anais, but it was only when my eyes were on Lilith that I felt that Lilith was pretty and envious.

Come to think of it, Kilian didn’t really love me. Maybe because I died for him, his memories were distorted and he missed me due to a sense of loss.

So, after all, wouldn’t it lead back to Lilith in some way? If this thing works out again, won’t he forget me and fall in love with Lilith in the end?

“If you give up now, I’ll put you in jail for two weeks.”

“If Your Majesty gives up now you can just say, ‘The, the prettiest Older Sis in the world, Lilith, forgive me’.”

I think I laughed strangely, but I quickly hid my expression. I really missed my sword suit, but it felt good because it was light and comfortable. Black pants clinging to a white top. In addition, my sword was a rapier with a thin blade, probably out of consideration for Lilith’s body. Good thing. At least it’s light.

On the other hand, the sword Kylian was holding was not the huge Zweihänder he usually carried. He was a monster who swung that ignorant longsword with one hand befitting of the male lead. Seeing that he was holding the same rapier as mine now, it seemed to be his own consideration.

“Your Majesty!”

“Ah.”

“Wife?”

How the hell did she know? Anais, the woman I didn’t know who was in my body, was coming running, frighteningly dressed up.

It seemed like she was okay, but I felt embarrassed instead. It was not that she was not dressed, but it was so terrible that being buried under the clothes is the right expression.

I’m not even mad anymore. It’s just absurd.

“Your Majesty! Don’t do it, you’ll get hurt!”

“Anais. Are your memories still not coming back?”

“Ah… Yes… Right… You told me to call you Kylian.”

“It’s dangerous, stay back, Wife.”

It bothered me that he called the empress ‘wife’. Of course, it was far more annoying to hear them talking to each other than that. It was frustrating to see her treat my body as if it was her own.

“Let’s start soon, Your Majesty?”

Then, Kylian looked at me, surprised. After that, he stood upright, but his posture was messed up, probably because he had never held a rapier. He put it on his shoulder, as was his custom with the Zweihänder and looked this way.

Of course, no matter what position he holds the sword, if he pushes forward with determination, I would lose. If I return to my original body, I might win.

“I’m sure I’ll be at a disadvantage, so I’ll put a condition on it.”

“Say it.”

“If Your Majesty lets go of your weapon or is unable to use it, you lose?”

“Yes.”

I laughed at his fairly confident answer. My body was facing this way from a distance of a few feet away with both hands clasped in a prayer.

Looking at her hair, I suddenly remembered that my hair is also blue now, and I felt ashamed.

“I’m… going!”

Pretending to speak on purpose, I approached first and took a stab him. However, he avoided it as if it was a joke, but I smiled brightly because I wanted our eyes to meet. Then he frowned and took a step back.

I held my left hand at shoulder level and clenched my fist, and I moved forward with my right foot for a thrust, and he clattered my rapier.

At that moment.

“Kyaaah!”

Anais crouched down, covering her ears, startled by something flying, but Kylian looked at it for a moment. Without missing a chance, I attacked him.

But tang! With a sound, he properly blocked my sword and pushed me back. I suddenly backstepped, and my hands trembled from the weight I felt on my shoulders. It doesn’t matter. A saint chosen by the Goddess of Life. Then her resilience should be the best in the world. I felt sorry for Lilith, the owner of the body, but remembering that even if it was broken, it would heal in a day, I sped up even more.

Again, I struck my sword so quickly that I could hear the sound of metals clashing. I already had numbness, pain, pulling, and confusion, probably because my arm had no muscles.

Kylian seemed certain that he had the victory. That’s why he must be constantly glancing at Anais. I don’t know what it was, but judging from the fact that she shouted, she seemed surprised. But nothing to worry about.

There were already a lot of people around Anais, and it wouldn’t change even if Kylian cared a little more.

I began to feel resentment at the fact that he skipped my attacks and moved as if those were trivial. If it was my original body, I would have been able to compete more evenly. I should have said that I would rather he attacks me.

I closed my mouth and moved forward again, stabbing again and again. I also didn’t start without thinking, so I was looking for an opportunity. He was on his guard, and it was fortunate that the intruder appeared sooner than expected. I thought it would be Lewarren, not Anais.

“Will you give up at this point?”

“You can give up, Your Majesty.”

He really laughed at me this time. Then bang! I hit the sword with a clicking sound, but it was fortunate that I held the sword tightly so as not to miss it. The wrist bones were rattling and my collarbone was vibrating, but the sword was holding up.

“Why on earth do you need that diary?”

“That is a question for Your Majesty. Why did Your Majesty need Lady Anais’ diary? Did you see that and change your mind about Lady Anais? Did your feelings of hatred you had all your life change after reading that diary?”

“…….”

I thought he would be careless, but I didn’t expect it to be this much. He turned his head to see if Anais was okay. My heart was pounding, I unwittingly cast my special move.

Crack!

“What is this!”

I won. In a way he didn’t expect.

“When did you learn such tricks?”

“I won. Because His Majesty’s sword is no longer usable.”

I knew how to break a sword.

The only problem was that if I broke my opponent’s sword, my sword would break as well. Still, it must have been a pretty good sword. It wasn’t broken, it was cut in half and bent.

“Who taught you these dirty tricks?”

“What do you mean dirty, Your Majesty. Do you remember the conditions we put up earlier?”

Because this was my specialty. How to beat Kylian who is much stronger than me. I thought it wouldn’t work if my body changed, but it does.

It’s just that my arm seems to be broken. It doesn’t move well, but it wasn’t to the extent that I couldn’t use it at all. However, compared to the swelling speed, the healing speed was fast.

“You are hurt.”

“Yes.”

“Second bishop.”

“Yes.”

When Phileal came nearby, he stood behind me. I met his eyes, but it was a somewhat disturbed face.

“I won, so keep your promise.”

“Do you think I will uphold it?”

“Yes. Your Majesty is such a person. You’re considerate, afraid of spiders, and you always keep your word. And if you say you don’t like it, you’re the kind of person who won’t do it, Your Majesty.”

Perhaps his obsession with the diary is to show it to Anais, who claims to have lost her memory.

“…My wife has lost her memories. I will give her the diary. But I will give it to you after she reads it first.”

“Will reading make a difference? As I said last time…”

“Stop. I will forbid you to say that until I confirm it with the High Priest.”

He seemed to think that it was rude to say that Anais was fake in front of Anais herself.

“Your Majesty. It seems that the High Priest of Death will wake up sometime today.”

“Really?”

“Yes.”

Phielal continued with the same foxy smile from before.

I looked at Kylian, and he gave a rough answer and then strode off to take care of Anais. She was still sitting on the floor and seemed to be crying, while the servants next to her were talking gibberish to Kilian. It seems that what Anais was surprised to see was a dove.

“Your Majesty.”

When I called, he turned around.

“Your Majesty, the Anais you know is not afraid of doves.”

“…….”

“It was Lilith who was afraid of doves.”

I was sure the bird I saw as she cried out and sat down was a dove. It was her habit to cover her ears as she curled up over her body. Because it resembles someone so much.
