"How did you know I was a woman?

"... on the contrary, I wonder why you didn't think I'd find out. Men and women have very different skeletons. It doesn't matter how much cloth you wrap around your tight chest."

That's what Kate said in a quick tone, like she was stunned. Everyone around him agrees with him and shakes his head vertically.

"The team didn't find out."

Mark responds to my whining voice.

"Those guys are like they think they're more muscular than brains. Even if I knew you were a woman, I'd be able to shut you up with my strength."

"I'd love to see their faces when I find out I lost to a woman."

Viktor gives a pleasant look like Niyaniya and Bad Kid Admiral.

"This guy is pretty deadbeat. I mean, I've never seen a kid like this before."

"You're so loud being a kid just now. I'm sixteen today."

Together it solidifies in my words.

Oh, did I say something so strange? You're human with me, it's natural to get old.

"You, is today your birthday?

With his eyes round, Victor opens his mouth.

"That's right.... What's wrong with you?

"You're old enough to drink."

"Oh, it's illegal."

Alcohol and tobacco have been sporadically said since I was twenty. I mean, isn't it normal to say "Happy Birthday" even if you don't normally have a heart?

-

... You shouldn't ask Victor for anything normal.

"It's legal in Lavar country. I don't know where you came from."

"Where was my country?"

I gave it back immediately, but I was in a great hurry.

Since when did you find out I'm not from this country?

... because I showed you my eyes? But I did speak the ancient language of Lavar. I played a human being in this country, didn't I?

"Isn't your daughter a person in this country? This is funny."

Kate takes an interest in me at once. The eyes he looks at me are like those he even discovered in a new breed of flowers.

Actually, I'm not from this country either.

I know.

"These three are your educators from today on."

... what?

Victor's suggestion leaves my mouth empty.

My uncles seem to be the first to hear it, but they don't give me surprises.

"Why do you ask the brains of this country to educate me?

Victor answers nothing. I keep talking.

"As the prince said, I may not be a person in this country. Maybe it will be treason. And yet I can't believe you're trying to grow me... What the hell do you want?

"... you think too deeply. I just gave my men a chance to learn a lot. Think of it as a birthday present and take it."

"Sure, learning is a most pleasant gift..."

"You've never seen a woman say that before."

"There's no way you could have done this to your people without profit. There's always a back."

"What do you think is behind that?

Why are you making me say that? I get on well with Victor's question.

"You're buying up too much of my ability. I'm not that great of a person. You think the prince is exceptional in his academic and combat skills, but I'm not the kind of person who can help you."

Put a breath in my words. He answers.

"Is that because you're not from this country? Or is there someone else you'd like to devote yourself to?

Either way, it turns out I'm not from this country.... I guess it's already broken.

There is no such thing as a human being who works for a prince and has not pledged allegiance to a prince.

As I shut up, the prince sighed small.

"Fair enough. I don't expect that from you either.... Go Already"

Are you tired of it? You don't need a subordinate who doesn't listen to you.

"Now, if you'll excuse me"

That's what I said, I turned my back on the prince and tried to leave the spot.

As I left the room, I heard a prince from behind.

"Well, it's up to you to tell these three what you're capable of."

... I mean, you can't tell me anything unless the other one expects me. If I don't have the strength, I'll be cut.

You mean I don't have a choice, they do.

I love these stories, they burn great.
