My Childhood Friend the Demon Knight Hates Me

"Mr. Sulia, let's leave this much for today's special training"

"Uh... are we done yet?

"Yes. It's almost perfect. You seem to be moving sophisticated and in good shape. Did you get a good breath yesterday? This is going to finish sooner than planned."

With her golden eyes gently narrowed, Ms. Marina tapped her hand to signal an end.

I throw the treasure sword in my hand and it almost represents joy, and I rush to regain my sword and take thanks. Mr. Marina, who smiles like a birdie, is still a lady and a beauty today. Until just now, it was livestock.

With only a murderous landscaped space with white floors, will the special training given day after day finally come to an end?

I hung my sword against the side wall, then lowered the sleeve of my rolled up arm and paid for the hair of gold tea sticking to my face with sweat. Where my vision is clear, I, uh, keep an eye on Mr. Marina's thin, white fingers.

"... Mr. Marina, that ring"

"Oh, my God, did you notice?

Mr. Marina's pharmacopoeia was fitted with a Citrine-processed ring that was not there until yesterday, reminiscent of the color of her eyes. It also feels like a slightly cheaper substitute for her, a historical nobleman, but it's expensive and beautiful enough for me.

"Maybe from a lover, or something?

"Damn... yes, it is. Actually, I got it the other day."

A marina dyeing her cheeks.

You said yesterday that you had business, that you had an appointment with your lover?

Its shame, the way it exudes an irresistible joy from its entire body, repaints the usual adult atmosphere into something full of maidens.

I don't know, Mr. Marina is so cute.

"Is your opponent also a nobleman?

"No. I know him in another country, he's an educator. In fact, I entered this" Holy Bell Festival, "and until I was called as a spiritual princess mentor, I was out of other countries to study. That's where we met."

The day the Spirit Princess is chosen and allowed to see with the Queen.

Until that fixed date, the period to be established as a preparatory period shall be called 'Holy Bell Day'. I'm in the middle of it now.

"He's a little older, he's blind, but he's also home to this naughty kingdom, so it fits the story. The company grew deeper… He came here with me on Saint Bell Festival and when I returned to my country. I am the Three Ladies, and while I am a nobleman, I have never made someone as determined as my sisters have been, and through me I have put myself into my favorite studies. After finishing her role as a spiritual princess, she soon left for another country. My family immediately liked the person who brought my daughter here, and everyone blessed me."

"That's... nice. They must be wonderful too."

"Yes."

Fluffy, and Mr. Marina smiles as the flowers break.

That seemed really happy...... I was just a little jealous of Marina with such an opponent. Because my love remains dead in my childhood.

"This may be a lame question, but does Mr. Surya have someone to fall in love with?

"No, I'm not there. And this one."

"Oh, quick answer."

I shake Strawberry Blonde's long hair, and Mr. Marina lowers her brow like she's in trouble.

"I knew I was such a good friend with that knight... because I heard he was childhood friendly"

"Amazingly different! It's true it's childhood friendly, but that's all! You can never be in love!

"Oh, really? Excuse me. The knights often came to see how our special training was, and wondered if they were worried about the distressed Sulia. I had an extra thought."

"No, you don't. That was probably just free time. Mostly he meant me..."

Lie down, I gripped the hem of my clothes.

The sweat on your palms twitches and seeps. It's a long way to remember that day. It's his nightmare birthday.

'Cause he meant me...' I hate ', I said.

"... If you're going to be Mr. Sulia, you're going to find a good person. I'm a temperamental person who doesn't say a single cry to my special training. A woman with a strong core will surely be attracted to an honest man who will look there"

"It may be too late to get married," joking and laughing, I guess Marina somehow perceived the complicated emotions between me and Reis and flushed them without touching them.

I appreciate that care.

Mr. Marina stroked the ring in a merciful manner and stretched his spine to switch.

"To be honest, at first, I wondered why Mr. Surya was chosen as Princess Spirit. Usually, there would be more apostles or nobles in the church, wouldn't there? The apostle of the Church told me that there were no people this year who met the conditions, but it is still strange that you were chosen on purpose. Once again, with all due respect, it's not like Sulia has a high level of ability, identity, and spirituality."

"It's... actually, I still doubt it, too"

"But today, when I saw you begin to produce special training results, I finally realized that your spiritual power resides in the 'qualities worthy of the Spirit Princess'."

"A qualities worthy of a spiritual princess......?

I fly question marks.

The polished white floor reflected my surprised face like a mirror.

"Yes, you will be able to fulfill the true role of Princess Spirit."

"Do you mean the real role... praying for gratitude and loyalty to the Spirit Queen, not just the role of a spiritual representative? The Spirit Princess."

"I have a more important role to play. Different meanings are proper for wording and sword dancing. But you should hear that from the Chief Apostle. We haven't met yet, have we? You'll always tell me when you see me. Well, I'm sure there are still parts of it that I'm not convinced that it was exceptionally chosen solely for its qualities..."

On the last one, Mr. Marina was almost like talking to herself. I'm desperate to sort out Mr. Marina's words in my brain, and I can't return the question I poked that far.

Here's the end of the story, and finally, thanks to each other, today's special training has officially come to an end.

But what is the real role of the Spirit Princess... what is it?
