Don't I have talent? What should I do? I had never studied sword arts before. She immediately asked me to do something I had no idea about. If a person has no idea of what he is doing, he cannot figure out how to do it. What was I supposed to think? Can't I learn swordsmanship?

Yes, that's the reality. Just because I came to another world doesn't mean I'm talented. Even though I came to another world, I am an ordinary person. I can't despair because I don't have the talent to learn swordsmanship. I don't necessarily mean that I have to learn swordsmanship to become strong. Magic exists in this world. I can learn magic and become stronger. I have to get up.

"So I don't have the talent to learn swordsmanship?"

"no"

"?"

"What do you mean? You just told me I have no talent for swordsmanship."

"kidding, I'm kidding. You've got some talent. You make such funny faces. You even believed me."

Shit, this woman is too annoying.

"I acted really well, didn't I? It's going to be a fun trip with you."

"So I guess I have some talent."

"Yes, you have some talent to learn swordsmanship. Your body muscles are well developed. Moreover, you can use your head. Although a swordsman can't be thought during a fight, you need to use your head. But your movements are too clumsy and your reaction time is slow. That's why you have some talent. If you practice swordsmanship, you won't be as strong as me or Sestia, but you can be strong enough to defend yourself and carry yourself in this world."

"But then again, the move you just came up with was too boring. Come up with something more for the next practice. If you can't come up with something interesting, I might stop teaching you sword arts."

It's a pity that I can't will be like Sestia or Sophia. But it's better than no talent at all. I just trusted her from recently. Ever since she met me, she's always been teasing me. It's a shame that she keep cheating on me. She doesn't care about me at all. I will definitely get back from you later. What will your face look like then? Haha.. haha...

"Why are you laughing? Wait, did you just think about getting back from me?"

"Hahaha, no no, I didn't think of that. You're wrong."

"Oh, I must have thought wrong..."

"Okay, that's enough for today. You can sleep now."

"Were we not training again?"

"Mmm, are you confident? You look pretty tired to me."

"I could go on. You just look tired to me."

"You're going to regret saying that. COME ON, ATTACK."

[Nine days later]

Nine days passed. All this time, I trained with Sophia every night. But it's hard to say that the training she's doing with me is training. She always says "attack me". Did she really want to teach me swordsmanship? Every night I attack her like a fool with a sword. I stopped understanding what I was doing. Did she really want to teach me swordsmanship? Or what if she was kidding me all this time?

What is that? Is it a city?

But we did not become to reach to the city. To get to the city, you have to walk for another half a month.

No, apparently not a city. It looks like a mansion.

"Sophia, what's that mansion? I didn't know we were supposed to come across a mansion."

"That's Count Cedoric's mansion. We're going to pass through that mansion."

"Understand"

Count Cedoric. What are the nobles of this world? His mansion looks very big. He seems to have a lot of wealth. One of the things I realized from watching a lot of anime in the previous world was that "aristocrats are complicated people". Aristocrats are often greedy for power and wealth. There are some jerks you never want to meet. Of course, there are also good nobles. Will Cedoric Count be a good man? Or will he just be a jerk?

Even though he is a good noble, I don't want to pass through that mansion if possible because many problems follow nobles. But I can't decide. I can't help but follow them. But what if I tells them that I doesn't want to pass through the mansion?

"Do we have to pass through that mansion?"

"Yes, we must pass through that mansion. We have a job there."

I knew it wouldn't work. Of course, the two of them were passing through the mansion because they had to run some errands.

"Wait, what people?"

"We are here to see Count Cedoric. My name is Sophia. Tell Count Cedoric he will know."

"Tell Cedoric that someone named Sophia has arrived."

They are passing through this mansion to meet the Count. What are they going to do meeting with the Count? But this mansion is really big. Almost like a royal palace. Security seems to be tight. There are almost a hundred soldiers on the outer wall. Where are the citizens? There is nothing outside the outer walls.

"Bring them in. Count Cedoric will be waiting for their in his drawing room."

This is my first time will meeting a nobleman of this world.

Wow, there are so many people. Everyone here is Count Cedoric's employee, right? Or do his subjects live in his mansion? No, it can't be. Citizens never live in their king's palace. This is true in any world.

They both look different. Apparently not the soldiers. Although they have swords, they are wearing dark gray cloaks and their faces are hidden by masks. It is clear that people do work that kills. Messing with them will probably not end well. Need to stay away from them. There are a lot of soldiers even outside the mansion. Cedoric seems to value deep safety.

The door of this hall seems to be very exotic. I am very nervous because I am going to enter a big mansion and meet a nobleman for the first time. What kind of person will it be?

"Sophia"

"Sestia"

"It's good to see you two. I didn't expect you two to come so soon."

Wow, what a handsome guy. He is so enviable. He is very lucky to be rich and powerful yet handsome. And he is served by beautiful and sexy women. If I were in his place, it would be really nice.

"So you two have come to pay me a debt."

Being so, they passed through this mansion because they had to pay a debt to the Count.

"Now that we've paid our debt, we're out of here."

How did you pay the debt? I do not understand.

"Leaving so soon? Why don't you stay with me and have some fun? I wouldn't mind having fun with such beautiful women."

"It is better to have fun with a beggar than with you."

I have absolutely no idea what's going on. Their talk...

"Imprison it together with the others."

"Understood sir"

"Lie Down"

"Why should I lie down? What do you mean by 'Imprison with others'? I don't understand anything."

"Sophia"

"Sestia"

"What's going on? Tell me. Why aren't you answering? Why aren't you looking at me? Are you two going to leave me?"

"Sophia"

"Sestiaaaaa..."
