“Hey, Uncle Gil, let’s spar!”

“Huh!?”

Lyle’s sudden outburst made Gil surprised. He looks at him dumbly as if hearing something really outrageous. Looking at Lyle’s eyes, he noticed that he is serious about what he just said.

“Are you really serious, young master?”

“yeah!”

“B-but young mas…”

“There you are, LYLE-SAMAAA!!!”

“-----ter?”

A voice echoed in the training room cutting what Gil wanted to say. They both look at the place where the voice came from and saw Sasha panting with a beet red face.

“Lyle-sama, j-just now d-did you…”

“That’s right, Sasha please help me talk some sense to the young master!”

“Shut up Gil-sama, that’s not, what’s important right now!”

He glared at Gil who seems he wanted to say something and turn around to face Lyle who is giggling while watching towards the two.

“L-lyle-sama, d-did you just K-k-k-kiss …..”

“Are you really Sasha? No, wait, this is important right now! Please stop him, he wants to fight me!”

“------- Eh?”

Bewildered by Sasha’s sudden change of behavior, Gil collected himself and told Sasha his current problem. Hearing such absurd thing Sasha widened her eyes and asked.

“Lyle-sama? I-is that true?”

“yup!”

Lyle’s voice showed that he was serious. He stared back at her with pleading eyes.  He looks like a puppy waiting for his master to feed him.

“Please?...”

“Uugh…”

Sasha couldn’t answer back. When she looks at his eyes, she couldn’t say ‘it’s impossible’ nor say ‘please think it again’.  She glanced at Gil who is watching the scene with bitter smile and say

“P-please take care of him”

“WHAT!? Just what are you talking about Sasha? This is dangerous!”

Flabbergasted by Sasha’s decision, he accidentally retorted.

“But I can’t stop Lyle-sama when he looks at me like that!”

Gil who heard her was dumbfounded and had also begun thinking in earnest. He turned to face Lyle once more who was watching them smiling with a hint of mischief in it

“*sigh* fine!”

‘I guess I’ll just play with him a little!’ is what Gil thought but he was in for a surprise. He didn’t expect that what in front of him was not just any normal boy but a little wolf in sheep’s clothing.

“Young master, get what wooden weapon you like in the room over there”

Lyle didn’t wait anymore and immediately went to get his wooden sword. When he arrived he saw various swords lying in the room but most of it all is just wooden double-edge sword. He was looking for a sword resembling a katana for that is what he was most accustomed with in his past life.

There in the far most corner of the room he saw two thin swords lying, He clutched the wooden sword and began waving it.

‘hm, perfect but I prefer if the other one is smaller than this one. But beggars can’t be chooser!’

His hands were gradually getting accustomed to the weight of the wooden sword; feeling satisfied he rushed off towards the center of the training area. There, Gil and Sasha were waiting for him. The men or rather the knights who are training there earlier stopped and were now sitting at the sides of the place.

“So who do you think will win?”

“Idiot! Of course it’s Captain Gil. It will be like taking a candy from a child!”

“Shut up! Someone might hear you, you know!”

The surrounding knights were talking to each other. When Lyle arrived at the center stage, everyone was staring at him, especially Gil.

“Young master, is that sword okay with you? And most of all two?”

He was asked by Gil upon looking at the swords he brought. Compared to his two thin swords, what Gil was holding was a big double-edge sword; of course he would be questioned, although not as big as his sword, there are also other sword that are bigger than what Lyle is holding but can still be used by him.

But what shocked him the most is that, he was carrying not just one but two.

“What’s the problem?” Lyle tilted his head as he asked.

‘He really is just a child!’ Gil mused himself. Thinking that Lyle was just a child trying to impress everyone by wielding two at the same time.

“Then let’s begin!”

As if that was the cue, Lyle prepared himself and covers every corner of his body with mana. This was a Body Strengthening magic he invented, he called it .

He discovered this when he was carrying a pile of books to his bed. Because it was heavy he thought for a solution. While thinking he remembered a certain light novel where an MC covers his body to strengthen it. He immediately perform it and the result, it was amazing.

Recalling the experiment he made, he closes his eyes. His body became lighter and stronger. He curved his body to the right and points the sword in his right toward Gil while he reversed grip the other and was also pointing at Gil.

His stance was weird for Gil and the others to comprehend. Gil was still looking at Lyle with a smile on his lips but then something happened

Lyle slowly open his eyes, unlike from before, right now his eyes was sharp and his gaze was fierce that even Gil who was looking at it begun having cold sweat. The smile in his face vanishes in thin air.

“Then here I go!”

His voice was cold. Colder than steel and the aura around him change.

Thus….

BaaaANG!!!

As if that sound could be heard, a dense, enormous, and fierce pressure mercilessly attacked the people around the training area, even Sasha who was watching Lyle with worried look kneeled down. As if carrying physical force, too, some of the knights immediately lost consciousness.

All the surrounding knights felt it and the joyous atmosphere from before vanished. They look at the source of the pressure and were waiting what will happen. Because of that they suddenly forgot that Lyle is still a kid almost five years old.

‘T-this is…’

Only Gil and some of the other knights remained calm, although a sudden thought floats in their head.
