Apparently, I’m a Childhood Friend of a Saint in the World of Light Novels, and When We Meet Again After a Few Years at School, She’s Turned into Some Kind of Yandere?
The day after the discussion was over.
We were out in the school yard to take the required swordsmanship class.
It’s not like magic classes, where you have to take it by choice or aptitude, but basically everyone has to take swordsmanship classes unless they are physically weak or have some other reason.
The reason for this is that it may increase the chances of survival in the event of an assassination attempt.
I don’t think I’ll get better at swordsmanship with a blade like that, but if you say it’s better than not doing it, I can’t argue with it.
“What’s wrong with you, Alan? Your face does seem to be floating. ……”
“Ah, Iris. Well, recently, I’ve been having meetings with Foster sama for a long time, so I thought it might be time for him to develop some strange habits.”
“Ah, ahaha…it would be cruel for us to act as your partners.”
I shrug my shoulders at Iris’ bitter smile.
There’s nothing wrong with continuing to fight the same person.
However, there is a limit to everything, and I have been fighting Foster sama ever since I entered the school, and I have become accustomed to it rather than feeling nervous.
In actual combat, it’s rare to have to fight the same enemy so long that you can completely grasp the opponent’s quirks, so frankly speaking, it’s not much of a training exercise.
“But don’t worry. It’s about to get bad for Alan-kun and Foster-dono, so I’ve taken proper measures.”
“Huh? That’s…”
“Focus!!!”
When I tried to ask her back, the swordsmanship instructor raised his voice as my eardrums were going to burst.
Honestly, this instructor is so passionate that I don’t really like him.
He is a different kind of hot-blooded man from Heyman san.
“From now on! We’re going to start the swordsmanship lesson! The flow is the same as usual! Everyone start with running! And Alan and Roger-Foster, stay here!”
What? Just me and Foster sama ……?
But this instructor is a man who respects speed, so soon my classmates start running to escape.
Charlotte looked at me worriedly for a moment, but I nodded because it probably wouldn’t be terrible.
It’s not going to be ………, is it?
“Um, …… why were we the only ones called?”
“Mm! Well, to be honest, it’s not easy to find a partner for you guys! We were having a hard time thinking of anyone, and then Her Highness Iris came up with an excellent alternative!”
I don’t know why. …… she’s usually so dependable, but her smile just now just gives me a bad feeling. ……
I have a feeling I’m going to be in trouble again, and I’m getting depressed.
“Hahaha! So what’s the alternative? Can I fight someone more awesome?!”
Foster-sama is also completely fearless.
Normally, if you were to talk to a teacher about it, you would get kicked out, but for some reason, this person was the only one who was tolerated.
At one time, there were rumors that the Marquis Foster family had put pressure on him, but in the end, everyone was convinced that Foster himself was so eccentric that the teachers had given up on him.
“Mm! In fact, I have prepared an opponent for you to strike with!”
“Fighting partner?”
“It’s me.
Alan-dono.”
I hear a familiar voice and turn around.
I turned around to see Alex-san standing there, dressed like a gentleman, bowing in a beautiful manner.
“Alex san?”
“m? Who is this old man?”
“I’m sorry, I’m late. Roger Foster sama. My name is Alex and I am Her Royal Highness Princess Iris’s valet.”
Alex-san bowed his head, not at all offended by Roger Foster-sama’s rude attitude.
I think he’s an adult in this way.
“Hmm. Well, the old man seems strong and I’m looking forward to fighting him! I’m in your care!”
“Well then, let’s head straight to the training ground.”
◇◆◇
We were taken by Alex to a training ground at the edge of the school.
The school building is also far away, so it is better for training than fighting in a beautifully landscaped area.
“The two of you are quite capable, my Lord has told me. So I will not instruct you. You can just think of me as your battle training partner.”
Even so, I am honestly grateful.
Iris also has complete trust in me, and the fact that he is someone I can fight with all my strength is valuable.
“Then please come at me one by one.”
“Which of us should go first?”
I’m going to ask Foster-sama, who’s in a better position here.
The answer is obvious.
Foster-sama looks at me and smiles.
“May I go first?”
“Be my guest.
I’ll be watching from a little distance. “
“Hahaha!Thanks. You can call me by my name if you like. You’re my rival.”
“No, thank you. I’m too different from you socially, Foster sama”
“Taha! What are you talking about, you who is calling out Princess Sama by name? Well okay. Just stay away from me.”
Apparently, Foster sama has taken a liking to me, and he has been saying things like this to me lately.
I’ve been refusing because I’m sure I’m only going to get myself into trouble.
I do as I’m told and watch the battle unfold from a little distance from the two.
This is the first time I’ve seen Alex fight, and I’m really looking forward to it.
“Well then, Foster sama, please feel free”
“Hmph!
Come on!”
“Then…..wooooooooooooo!!!!!!”
At that moment, an enormous amount of magical power flows out from Alex-san.
The amount is so great that the atmosphere shakes.
Even I would not be able to release such a large amount of magic power all at once.
Alex-san’s body rises to a muscular state and his butler’s uniform is torn.
“…… Eh?”
I was speechless at the unexpected situation.
That gentleman looks like a steamy, exasperated gorilla!?
“That little shit …… I’m not old enough to be called old yet ……! I will crush him with my fists……!”
What, he’s really angry……
Where’s that adult margin you had just now? ……
I was so stunned I couldn’t even say anything.
Typo “Roger Foster sana” – “Roger Foster-sama”
