No matter how many times I turned that conversation over in my mind, I couldn’t rest easy. Was this really a good idea? As I showed the imperial princess around, I put on a hard-boiled veneer to hide any evidence of the doubts nagging at me. All I could do was trust in my friends.

“The Supreme Warrior Festival is a tournament of beasts who have dedicated their lives to fighting,” I said. “No matter what innate talents you may have, I don’t think simple training will be enough to get you ready for something like that at such short notice. Besides, that’s not the sort of strength you need to begin with. So we thought up a plan that would be perfect for you. We’ll give you multifaceted strength.”

“Multifaceted strength?” Princess Murina repeated in a small voice. “And what was that about being ready for the Supreme Warrior Festival?”

She really was a docile person. I had heard she was friends with Éclair, but their personalities were nothing alike.

“Of course, we’ll do everything in our power, but luck can always factor into a fight,” I said in an attempt to reduce liability. Reducing liability was part of my job. “The Supreme Warrior Festival is an event for the very best. I can’t guarantee your victory.”

“What are you even talking about?” asked the knight who introduced herself as Karen. “You were asked to train Her Imperial Majesty. However, there’s no need for her to become that powerful when she has us, the Zero Order. All she needs is to be able to protect herself should the occasion arise.”

“Huh? Did you not get the memo?”

“What?!”

Karen glared at me. She was like Franz if he were a woman. Maybe this was just the ideal personality for knights? I didn’t want to insult the pride of a knight, but it seemed there was a misunderstanding here.

Was the emperor keeping it a secret that he wanted his daughter to take part in the Supreme Warrior Festival? It seemed feasible. This was a man who had picked me, the guy who caused a stir at the Gathering of the White Blade, to protect him (most likely in spite of protests from advisors). He also hadn’t shown the slightest hint of trepidation when we ended up in Peregrine Lodge. This might make him seem charismatic and open-minded, but I was sure it was actually because he had a screw or two loose.

I wasn’t sure what I was supposed to say to win over the imperial princess’s two guards, so I turned from the guards to the quiet princess and said, “Your Imperial Highness, resolve is necessary to become stronger. You’ll never claim victory if you’re satisfied with the bare minimum.”

That was why I would never improve. I gave up too easily.

Princess Murina didn’t respond to my pretentious remark, but she seemed to be deep in thought.

I just hope the emperor doesn’t hear about this. Let’s just try to avoid doing any harm and hope she doesn’t buy too much into what I’m saying.
