I was sitting at a chair at the training field here in the Kingdom of Eshla. There is also blondie who is currently practicing with a shield and a sword, and the armored guy who is training her.

Man I'm getting bored. There must be something I can do to pass time. I already thought of going around the castle and explore to kill time but that wouldn't be so good since after blondie's training we are going to go on a tour at this place were she will be my guide.

Blondie lost her grip at her sword and it went flying away towards the armored guy.

"Hey! What was that?" The armored guy managed to block the blade with his hard steel armor.

"Oops~ I'm so sorry, my hands were sweaty and it just went flying away." Blondie as she picks up her sword from the grass.

The armored guy approached blondie and suddenly,

"W-what are you doing?" The armored guy holds her by the back of her palm and looks at her hand. Blondie's face flushing red. He then brought out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped her sweaty hands.

"Uh... Thank you." Blondie holds her sword again, this time a bit flustered.

"Focus. Maintain your posture and strike as hard as you can then turn back fast to your defensive stance." The armored guy instructed.

Blondie does as what he said but I can tell that she's still having a hard time doing it. I already taught her before that it's her posture that was wrong when she was practicing earlier. I can see that she's breathing hardly and almost can't maintain her balance. She's obviously tired. I wonder if I should stop her training to give her a rest. It seems like the armored guy noticed it too but he's still not stopping. You can see it in her look in her eyes that she is determined to train more. Perhaps that's why he is not stopping her.

Well what do I care? I don't give a damn to what ever happens to this girl. After all it would have been better if her body wore out and break, that way there would be no more hero to interfere with the Demons' plans.

Still, I can't help but be inspired just by looking at her. Rather than get fatigued, I feel like training with determination prevents her from getting tired.

"Hya! *huff huff*" blondie breathes heavily after doing her attack and defensive patterns perfectly.

"Very good. Now take some rest first before we proceed to the next."

"Foo~ Training is hard." Blondie dropped the sword and shield and sits on the grass, trying to catch her breathe.

Seeing her work hard like that really inspires me. I guess I could kill time while training too. But can I really do that? Right now I am currently pretending to be a farmer's son who got caught up in the battle between the Demons and the Kingdom of Serdin and got saved by the hero. Maybe asking to train with them will only blow my cover. Then what am I supposed to do for the rest of the day? Time can be a real sh*t sometimes. I let out a sigh.

I think I'll just take this opportunity of watching her train like trying to know your enemy. This way I will be gathering information on how my enemy fights, know her limits and weaknesses. I can develop counter-attacks in case we meet each other in battle. I'm not just focusing on learning about the blondie but also the armored guy as well.

The armored guy was a Knight, and Knights are second in rank next to the King. They are like the Demon Lords who play as the general during wars. They are the ones who lead the troops in battle. I have to keep a close eye on him too.

I will think of a plan on how do I get to see blondie's chest later. That came out perverted. I don't care.

"Excuse me. I have brought snacks for every one." What came in from the halls was the maid from earlier.
