Common Sense of a Duke's Daughter

Chapter 214 - Mother



Mother“War... Mother, is that certain?”Before Iris, who was obviously panic stricken at the notice, my heart was deeply calm.At the same time, I remember when I heard it.“Hey, hey ... what was that person’s name again”“You! woman, how long are you going to fight for?”It was nosy...Speaking of being noisy, is Iris now at the royal palace meeting?What time was it that Iris would be returning?That meeting... it’s not something like a party, only thinking that it was planned by Marquis Maras and Queen Elle, I feel nauseated...“Fuu ... ....”While breathing out to calm my thoughts, I was able to stretch my whole body.It was quiet.Where did the noise of a while ago went to... the air feels tense.At the same time, I felt a lot of gazes on me.However, it does not bother me at all.Already inside me all the feelings and thoughts were for fighting.When that happens, I can do anything ... It is like I’m wrapped in such a full of omnipotence feeling, rather pleasant.The confronted men were frightened by me for a moment.. as if they were trembling.I was worried about Iris, so as to lose some anxiety I went to the training grounds and started practicing.I kept fighting without stop and felt sick in the end.At the state I was, my husband who noticed it, said me to go move the body and calm my feelings, so I came to train.Although it is true that this is a simulated battle, my feelings will settle down the same as if it was only training.Having a sword for training is the best, but in reality for most people it’s odd to see a Duchess handling a sword and fighting with soldiers.....But I know that my husband would fall in love with me even while seeing me like this, and mostly because of the fact that he knows me well.“......start!”Together with that command of the fight judge’s officials, I switched my whole being into battle mode.The more you concentrate your consciousness, the more it feels like diving into the deep ocean ... comfortable as if you are in a different world somewhere apart from reality.Steadily, deeply, forgetting everything and enjoying.The deeper you sink, the more quiet the world is.As the nerves are calm, you can control all the muscles that you usually don’t move under consciousness.Where is the limit of the range of motion of the human body?Where is the limit of speed?When you see the sword coming up at this speed, can you dodge it? and counter attack?Check ​​the time, read the movements, and prepare for it.Oh ... it feels good.When I noticed, all of my opponents had collapsed on the ground.A little dissatisfaction tickles my chest. How can they be so fragile!...“...... Hey, her movements... did you see them?”“What? ...... how can a human see those movements? Who is she?”I hear such whispers from here and there, but I decided to ignore it.I got out of the stadium while lost in thought.“... You have a dreadful appearance,”I raised my face as I know that voice, and it was Mr. Schlee who was there.Mr. Schlee ... he is a person who stands at the top of Count Anderson’s soldiers.He is one of the few people who have been watching me participating at this training since childhood, knowing that I am the daughter of the General Gazelle and now in the position of Duchess of Almeria.“Mary, I haven’t seen you around lately...”“.... I recently participated in the training because I thought that my body was a little dull.”Although my fighting scene today was serious, it was not such a momentum as if I devote everything into the fight.“It’s embarrassing that our soldiers couldn’t last long against you, it’s as good that you pointed out their flaws.”“No no no ... don’t worry ... well ... They were talking about me having turned from “human soldier” into a “monster” But I do not think anyone was dissatisfied?”I am laughing to Laurent Schrey who is outrageous without real intention.“... even if a monster, anything is okay if you can protect what is important to you”“... are you talking about your family?”I was a little surprised when he asked that with a low voice ... yet, I nodded honestly.Top secret was that my husband was attacked. However, since my father knows ... Well, it is not surprising even if he heard it as confidential information.“It seems that this country is having difficult times, even if I do not know when peace will be threatened.”“...... Even if you talk about it...... Nothing can be prevented, I need to be prepared”

“Well, you made it in time .... Although the results were a little disapproving... You made a lot of mistakes when killing the assassins immediately...”

“Yes, I am sorry, my blood got up to my head, ...”I didn’t want to hear others pointing it..Because I already regret every day it but... I was so disgusted that I couldn’t control myself.“Well, but Mary none other than you could have protected him in that case, so I’m going to continue praising you because you protected him! ... Oh, those assassins would have taken killing him for granted ... I can’t imagine their faces at the moment, when you appeared. But... if you kept them, you could have made them speak easily? Are you not afraid of what you’ll have to go through if they try it again not knowing who was behind the incident?“......That’s right”Yeah I’m afraid but I do not feel down about what I did. Thinking the opposite, even if we managed to make them speak, will you think that I have the competence to take down the mastermind behind it?. Oh, I still tremble when I remember the risk my husband had at that time. I still remember that battle... “Mr. Schlee had a bitter smile.I surely have a similar expression. Later Mr. Schlee continued talking about our previous battles. Real battles. Those battle that Schlee was talking about were not simulated ones for training like this one, but in the battlefield, fighting another armies.Once, I have stood in a real battlefield.And at that time, Mr. Schlee was fighting under me.......Really.I didn’t want to remember.I must forget it.“... Mr. Schlee”“The training of the soldiers has finished, so I’d like to fight next with Count Anderson”“... Wait a moment, Mary ... Well, Mary. You have fought all day today, how about going home instead?”Suddenly Mr. Schlee said something strange.In the loud voice I heard that the soldiers of Anderson’s Marquis who was in a little far-reaching spirit have become more distant.“But... An entire day used to be a normal quantity of training time in the past ... ?”Mr. Schlee reaction is rather unexpected for me.He should know of my previous training amount.I used to spend more time on training in the past than what I used today.“No, that’s true, but ...”Mr. Schlee gazes at the surroundings, and takes some steps distancing himself from Count Anderson’s soldiers.I thought we were far away enough from themBut, when I was thinking about what would he want to say to me ....“...Oh, Mary, did you participate in training today?”My father appeared.... It is natural because these are the training grounds at Count Anderson house.It was the first time he saw me today, as he was not present when I arrived.“Yes, I am amazed at the generals’ generosity ... because there are a lot of strong soldiers who receive daily the hard training from the general.”I’m currently not Mary, the Duchess, but a general named “Mary”, that’s why I talk like this to him in front of others.“Okay.... Well, there something I need to talk with you, will you come.”“I am afraid, I will bother you general.”I entered my father’s room, and take off Mary’s skin.“Was it okay not to be in the residence today?”“.... I was at the mansion in the morning, but I was so worried about Iris that my husband told to go train and move the body so as to feel a little refreshed and calm myself down.”Fuu ... ... and I sighed.“How is Louis physical condition?”“It is much better than before, I was really worried at first.”“mm, he’s not very good yet right?”“Well, that’s right”At my father’s question, I had a bitter smile.“I wanted to report to you, safely, the second Prince Edward and the Marquis Maras faction together with Queen Elle were captured”“Was it so .... Finally, Prince Alfred was victorious?”I’m so relieved.It seems that deep inside I was worried about it.I said and collapsed with all my weight in the chair.“Well, he will be able to remove the domestic pus soon, although in the future it’s a story of what will each territory do, he already moved from hands the high-ranking personnel of political affairs in the royal palace. I do not know very well, but Rudy said that Prince Alfred already had complete control? “
