Chapter 26

TL-Mechatronic

The Violet forest was overrun with Bellacs due to the dirty handwork of the Duchess of Luverne, but now, Bellacs are appearing even in the capital city. Among the capital citizens who are protected by the barrier, there must be some who have never seen a Bellac.

However, a Bellac could not break through the protection front, so the one that appeared in the capital must be a man-made incident.

“Is it the temple?’

There is only one suspicious place.

Under these circumstances, earnestly rebuilding the Dark Knights wouldn’t be beneficial to the Duchy, but it also wouldn’t be a loss.

‘The temple’s going to be busy.’

He burned the note on the candle and looked at the chess pieces. Adrian lifted the Queen, moved it one step forward, looked at the entire chessboard, and closed his eyes.

Jean, who came to the training camp just before dawn, was stretching and Nina walked out bravely and said hello.

“Hi, good morning.”

“Yes, good morning.”

Jean asked with anticipation.

“Well, what kind of training are we doing today?”

“Basic training.”

“Huh?”

“The basics. Everything must be well-grounded, so we are going to train your lower body and core muscles.”

“Basic…..”

“If you hate to start from the basics, you will not get better.”

“Wow, you can talk back now.”

“Then how about this, if Jean can touch me even once, I’ll move on to the next step.”

“Without the spirits?” Nina nodded to his question.

“Without the Spirits.”

“Deal.”

Jean’s voice was confident. Nina gave him a wooden sword for practice.

“What about you?”

“Bare hands will be enough.”

“….I won’t let you go now.”

“If you keep this up, you will be in trouble, ViceCommander. Let’s see how good you are.”

Then Nina grinned, whispering, “That way, you won’t be able to complain once I made you roll on the ground.”

Face-to-face with Nina, he raised the wooden sword. With that signal, the two collided. At first, Jean’s wooden sword had no power. However, the story changed when Nina punched him in the stomach while avoiding the sword.

“Hey, keuk, are you for real.”

“I did it lightly.”

If not, you would be stretched out on the ground by now’, and as Nina shook her head, Jean’s wooden sword began to gain strength. But his sword could not even hit her swaying hair, she had no unnecessary big evasive movements either.

She would avoid Jean’s wooden sword by a hair’s thread, and hit here and there with her fists.

Side, back, neck, back of the head.

Jean thought he had a chance because hitting him with a fist means that she gets close enough, but she didn’t get hit by the wooden sword at all. His attacks began to have more and more vigor and strength to them, and afterward, he would even attack at full throttle, but Nina did not get hit once.

On the contrary, he was kicked and rolled all over the training ground.

“Oh, my bad. I got a little serious. Are you all right?”

Even though she kicked him herself, Nina ran to him, Jean crouched and groaned while crouching his stomach, and said with tears in his face.

“Basic…… I’ll do it.”

“Yes.”

Nina smiled and raised him up.

“Then, first.”

Nina took a deep breath and claimed.

“Oh Sun, Great Star. Allow us to bend space and time, let us feel your pulling strength.”

“Huah?!”

Jean suddenly touched the floor, feeling pressed all over. Nina venerated.

“Wow, it really works. Five times the gravity!”

Nina was sweating.

“But it takes too much energy.”

I don’t think I would be able to maintain it for a long time because this uses the spirit’s power continuously not just once.

“But I have to try it today. If I use both energy and stamina at the same time, I can find my limit.’

Knowing your limits is important.

“Let’s start today’s basic training.”

Nina held a steel sword for training. She also had to train steadily to keep her body at its best. Jean managed to get up and lift the sword when he saw Nina lift hers.

When the morning training was over, Jean was as ragged as a wet tissue. Nina was also soaked in sweat. Jean clenched his teeth.

Nina trained twice as fast as he did.

‘B-but it’s too much.”

That level was not something he could do by will alone. The body had already reached the human limits, and there was no part left without pain. Nina released the augmented gravity and took a deep breath.

“Oh, there’s really nothing that comes easy.”

The training was not easy for her, either. However, it was not as hard as Jean, who could not move a single finger.

“Jean, take a good rest and go in to wash up.”

Jean couldn’t answer and only made a painful sound. Nina washed roughly by the well and had breakfast. After eating about 8 plates of golden-roasted potatoes, she headed to Kirill’s greenhouse.

Inside were all kinds of herbs and plants growing. Nina found the plant she had brought by looking at the name tags.

“Golden Sun, give warm, compassionate light, the gentleness that conceives and grows life, that light that delights the plants.”

A golden glow began to sprinkle over the soil.

“Oh? Oh, it works!”

It works! It works!

The plants grew quickly, the buds formed and the flowers bloomed.

“Huh?’

At that moment, her energy was empty and Nina’s vision turned black.

When I came to my senses, I was already on the bed in the infirmary.

“What…….”

“What do you mean, what? You silly girl.”

Kirill yelled and Nina turned her head to look at her. Dark blue eyes stared at her with irritation.

“What kind of idiot uses the spirit’s power until they faint? Oh, wait, we have one here.”

Kirill slapped Nina on the forehead with a muddler that she was holding.

“Ouch!”

Nina burst into tears and shot a protesting glance, but she was not able to lift a finger because she was weak It felt completely different from being hungry or having muscle pain.

So this is how it feels to be drained of energy.’

There was a feeling of emptiness and powerlessness, but I couldn’t tell exactly what it was. My whole body was cold as if the heat had escaped from it.

“I don’t have energy……”

When Nina sighed deeply, Kirill clicked her tongue,

“Do you know how surprised everyone was to see you lying in the greenhouse?”

Kirill recalled when she entered the greenhouse, Adrian had already arrived. He was looking down at Nina, lying under his feet. As if he couldn’t even look at it, he just stood there dazed, hardened like a piece of rock.

Rather, she was a bit surprised. After telling him that Nina was only sleeping, Adrian seemed to finally start breathing again.

Now that she’s finished nagging Adrian, it’s Nina’s turn.

Adrian came in when Nina was mentally distressed by spooning a medicine that was bitter enough to break off her tongue while listening to Kirill’s non-stop nagging.

Kirill stood up and said.

“Now that she has taken the medicine, all she needs to do is rest and recover her energy.”

As Adrian looked up slightly, Kirill retreated to her seat.

Adrian approached the bed and looked down at Nina, She gasped out a groan.

“I’ve just had medicine bitter enough to kill me, and I’ve heard Kirill’s non stop nagging. Please give me a break.”

Adrian frowned, pushed her aside, and climbed onto the bed.

The bed was quite narrow. So, to lie down, the two had to stick close together. Adrian pulled her and made her lean against his shoulder. Behind them, a soft and fluffy pillow was replaced as their backrest,

Kirill’s medicine had indeed the worst taste but it also had a great effect, the tips of her hands and feet were warm and had a little bit more power than before.

“Nina La Dell.”

“Yes.”

“What’s the rush?”

Nina lifted her head and looked back at Adrian, then leaned back against his shoulder and sighed.

“Because I have been away for two years.”

Without realizing it, a weak voice came out.
