The Grand Duchess of the North Is Obsessed With Me

28 – Gal!! Stamina is national strength

“Suck.”

Take a deep breath in and exhale deeply. He hadn’t exercised for 11 years, and he felt like his body was getting tired quickly.

Sweat trickles down from the forehead, from the neck, and from the whole body.

Sweat dripped down again before it even hit the floor, and each time it happened, I exhaled heavily.

“… Ha, one more time.”

Hearing Illencia’s voice, I moved my body, which had already reached its limit. This was more of an instinctive movement, not a reason that has now become distant.

“Huh… !”

“Just a little… more… !”

I frowned and glanced at Illencia.

When Illencia met her eyes, I slightly avoided her gaze, but she didn’t back down on her words.

“Whoa… Whoa… Suck!”

Her breathing becomes rough and the limit approaches. As she nears the end, her movements slow down but she grits her teeth and butters up, eventually letting out all her breath.

“Whoah….”

“End! Great job!”

Illencia, who was blushing, raised her hand and talked, and I laid down with her face on the ground.

“… You worked hard.”

“Mr. Berman.”

“Let’s rest for ten minutes and move on.”

Whoa.

I forcibly got up and sat down on the floor.

A few days after I started learning the sword from Berman, I was having a hellish experience.

If there’s one thing that’s fortunate, is this body that doesn’t suffer from alcohol or cigarettes?

If it was the body of the previous life, it was clear that I would have collapsed before half of it. He didn’t even have the strength left to wipe away his sweat.

Looking down at my trembling arms, I sighed deeply and swallowed a dry saliva.

My mouth was dry from sweating so much.

… Why did I say I was learning the sword?

If she had the will to stand proudly next to Illencia, there would be no reason for her to hold the sword.

Because it would have been possible in another way.

But when I thought about it, what came to mind was the image of Mr. Berman, who was offering me a sword.

In addition, he only said that he didn’t have to hold a sword, but the benefits of learning the sword were more than expected.

The first was that learning the sword was difficult, but there were many opportunities to move up quickly.

The North is a harsh land.

The barren land has always made northerners lack of abundance, and the murderous cold has made them even stronger.

In addition, beyond the high and large walls, there were even barbarians who were aiming for the northern lands.

The North was literally at war all year round.

Warfare is in line with the fact that there is an environment in which to make a contribution, so even if it is difficult to train a sword, there is a platform to climb.

The second reason is similar to the first reason.

There are many people who threaten the safety of Elencia. The work in the village was not an intentional accident.

However, I could feel it at Elencia’s recent birthday party.

An attack by barbarians aiming at Illencia boldly enough to make you think it’s reckless.

Of course, it was an incident where we could see the true face of the knights of the grand ducal family who were not trustworthy….

‘Illencia has always lived under such threats, and she has to live.’

I clenched my fists.

Then at least I have to be strong enough to protect it.

The third was that I had a great teacher by my side.

Berman Centipede.

The barbarian warrior I met on Illencia’s birthday felt how powerful it was, but Melon overpowered him lightly.

Melon is a knight under Berman.

Although I don’t know exactly what Berman’s skill level is, it was something I could roughly guess.

Being able to learn the sword from Berman was a great fortune for those aiming to become knights.

…… Thanks to that, I was rolling like this.

I have no regrets about my choice. After living a lethargic life, the goal became clearer to some extent and I felt refreshed after sweating.

“Now, drink.”

“Ah… Thanks Sia.”

Accepting the water cup that Illencia gave me, thanking me, I drank the cool water at once.

“Whoa….”

“It’s very difficult… ?”

Earlier, when I was exercising, I was playing around with numbers, but now I smiled at Illencia, who was worried about me, and brushed up my sweaty bangs.

“It’s worth doing.”

When I said I was learning the sword from Berman, Illencia was the one who objected the most.

Because she also knew very well that learning the sword was arduous and difficult, and that it could be dangerous later on.

Knights seem to be the most backward in the war, but the opposite is true in the north.

Because the first thing the most powerful knights and barbarian warriors collide with is a battle of spirit.

However, after somehow participating in the conversation between Mrs. Anna and her mother, she began to actively help me with my training.

“hehehe… Good luck then.”

For some reason, even his face turned red.

I don’t know what he’s thinking, but for some reason he shook his head, judging that it wasn’t a normal thought.

A few days since I started training.

I haven’t even held a sword yet. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t impatient.

As I said before, others will already be learning the sword.

There are people who start training at the earliest when they are five or six years old. By comparison, I am already eleven years old.

Compared to others, I started training about twice as late, so I couldn’t help but be in a hurry.

But.

[Go!! No matter how brilliant and splendid your swordsmanship is, if your body can’t keep up, it’s just a piece of cake!!]

I just tried to suppress my heart at the words of Berman who persuaded me with grotesque words.

“… Let’s not be impatient.”

I muttered as I clenched my fists and looked blankly up at the sky.

“Come on. We will start over now.”

I, unaware of the passing of time, stared at the sky. At Berman’s words, I took a deep breath and vigorously stood up.

“Yes!”

I hope this effort will not be in vain.

“Wow….”

Illencia pretended not to look, but she was spying on Cain who was training.

Every time Cain exhaled her breath, Illensia’s face flushed red as drops of sweat flowed down her.

At first, I didn’t like it.

She didn’t know what sword training was like, but she knew it wasn’t easy.

I’ve seen knights training at the grand duke’s house.

That’s why, even though he knew that Cain had a talent for swords, he didn’t tell him about it.

Berman also kept his mouth shut, and whenever he tried to seduce Cain, he blocked it.

But this time it was unstoppable.

[This is something I really want to do.]

It was because I could feel Cain’s determined will when he said that with serious eyes and a serious voice.

“… I mean, confess with that voice and with that face.”

Illencia, who was in pain for no reason, kicked the stone on her floor.

But soon she couldn’t help but redden her face again.

If that was the only reason, I would never have allowed it.

When she heard about Elencia talking to her mother and her future mother-in-law, Clementine, she couldn’t help but agree.

[Oh, our Illencia is still young, so we don’t know the coolness of knights.]

[Surely the knights are cool, right? A knight rescuing a princess from a fairy tale comes to mind, right?]

[More than that, Clementine. Do you know how good the knights are?]

[Aha… Sure! Your shoulders are broad, and your chest is firm, right?]

[If Cain learns the sword diligently, it will be like that… We, Illencia, say that Cain doesn’t like learning the sword….]

[I will. I’m sorry~ Hoho.]

Ho-ho-ho-ho.

Thinking of Anna and Clementine talking like that with her mischievous face and tone, Ilencia swallowed her dry saliva.

I’ve seen the naked bodies of knights.

Of course, when training, knights don’t take off their tops.

Within the family, there were more female servants than expected, and since she is a grand duchess, other noble wives come and go without hesitation.

However, living in the grand duke’s house, there was a situation that happened to come across.

Strong chest, washboard abs, wide shoulders and arm muscles.

In fact, Illensia didn’t feel any special emotions about it. On the contrary, she was thought to be a little gross.

But if Cain does that… ?

Anger.

Just imagining it made my blushing face look like it was about to explode. Illencia muttered quietly, fanning her hand over her blushing face.

“Ka, Cain wants to learn the sword, so I’m giving him permission… Yeah, I have no other intentions… Lol… hehehehe….”

Eleven years old.

She was still young in the age of the previous world, but in this world, she was at an age when she was in the midst of awakening to s*x.

Illencia patted her lips, wiping the drool dripping from her mouth with her sleeve.

Cain continued her training even though her body trembled from a strange chill.
