In the garden, from which they could see the window to the workshop, Volf stood with a training sword in his hand. The black leather battle shoes and breastplate he had borrowed were shiny and free of any scratches.

Volf had a sneaking suspicion that this equipment, which Ermelinda had said was intended for guard knights, was in fact a new set taken out of the company’s storage just for him.

After they’d agreed to spar, Ermelinda had gone out to get things ready, so Volf had planned to sit back and relax while he waited, but she had returned before he’d even finished his tea. Her long black hair was tied up in a ponytail, and she wore a white shirt and a red leather breastplate as well as black pants and boots.

That look suited her almost too well, and it suddenly reminded Volf of his mother, making him smile bitterly inside. Perhaps it was discourteous of him to think that about Ermelinda, who was close in age to him.

Together, they went into the back garden, where there was an open clearing. The flower bed, situated farther away, was devoid of flowers, but nevertheless, short green grass carpeted the ground under their feet.

From the variety of training swords a male attendant had brought to him, Volf had chosen one of the longer weapons. Meanwhile, Ermelinda had chosen two short blades. Evidently, she was a dual wielder. Although short, the two swords weren’t slender or light but rather had short, heavy blades. In order to wield those effectively, one either needed considerable strength or excellent strengthening magic. Volf wondered which of those applied to Ermelinda. This was looking to be a decent bout.

“Let us allow for body strengthening spells, but no attacks and thrusts above the shoulders. Does that sound acceptable?”

“Yes, it does.”

Those were more or less the same rules for the basic training they did in the Order. It was easy to cause serious injury to the head or throat, so combatants generally tried to avoid that possibility, even when using training swords. Although, training in the Order of Beast Hunters was fierce enough that they were used to injuries despite wearing helmets and armor.

Volf suddenly remembered that Dahlia had never seen him train like that. The truth was, he wanted to do everything he could to prevent her from seeing it in the future either. He didn’t want to cause her any needless worry.

“Now then, I look forward to learning from such a talented knight, Sir Volfred.”

“It is I who will be learning from you, Ms. Ermelinda.”

Once they finished speaking and bowed to each other, they took up positions. A beat later, Ermelinda’s shortsword had struck against his own at unbelievable speed. His body automatically evaded the follow-up sword, the longsword in his right hand slicing upward.

Ermelinda struck back with the shortsword in her other hand, her expression unflinching. Seeing that, Volf experienced firsthand her skill as a former adventurer.

Before, when he’d wrestled with Marcella, he’d been shocked by the man’s strength.
