Chapter 9: Chapter 7 | Shadow Phantom
Asahi works as a researcher of ancient magic with Duchess Charlotte. Charlotte is the kingdom's strongest mage she is a mage who reaches Circle 9.
Charlotte is the wife of Duke Regard, the strategist of the Lunaria kingdom, by the way, Asahi also studied magic with Charlotte, so she studied with her.
As for me, for now, I'm just training the maids to learn martial arts, of course, I made a schedule for them.
For example, today is the part of Abigail and Soraka that I train, tomorrow is Senna and Saunna, the next day Kronny and Dhea, and so on.
As I expected, they complained the first time they did the exercises I made. I used the same method my family used, why do i train them?
Simple, I want them to protect Asahi, Of course not only that, I also need strong and loyal subordinates, so I think training them is the right choice.
But it looks like it will take some time for them to get used to it. Someone came knocking on my door.
"Come in"
It was Abigail, she brought me a letter from all kingdoms.
"I brought a letter from His Majesty Master"
I took and read the letter, Abigail was waiting in front of me. The letter contained my appointment as Commander of the Shadow Phantom Order.
Shadow Phantom Knights Order That is a team consisting of 15 A Rank troops, there are 3 Orders, which means the number 45 people with 3 Captains, I was sent to be their Commander.
Supposedly their Commander was Duke Orton, The only person who reached the master level in the current Lunaria kingdom.
However, since he was still on a recon mission, I was appointed Commander of the Shadow Phantom Knight Order.
Closing the letter I called Abigail.
"Y-Yes Master?"
For some reason, she felt scared, but it was clear from hee face that said "no more training, no more training", just calm down ok? because today is not your part.
"Prepare my clothes"
"Good Master"
She seems relieved, I heard her sigh, maybe I should double the practice? I'm sure she will cry when I say it.
A few moments later, Abigail came to my room again.
"Master, their here"
I met them, Shadow Phantom Order.
"Hello everyone, I'm Ina-Yamaguchi, Are you guys Shadow Phantom Order?"
But no one spoke, they were silent when I asked. That sucks.
"Okay, I understand the situation. Open your dirty mouth, I'm listening"
One of them started to speak.
*Sigh
some of them sighed, it seemed they were looking down on me.
"I'm Mark one of the 3 Captains of the Shadow Phantom Order"
"I'm a Scout one of the 3 Captains of the Shadow Phantom Order"
Ahh~ I can feel displeasure from their words.
"We heard that, Ms.Ina will replace Duke Orton as our commander is that true?"
"Yes, as you heard"
"So how?"
The guy named Scout asked me to explain.
"That's the king's decision , do you want to disobey?"
"Our Knight Order has been in Duke Orton's Command for 42 Years can your highness take over the Bond we established with him?"
Those are good words, to be honest, I'm amazed by their royal nature, maybe I can make them become subordinates of my other confidants.
Mark one of the captains continued his words.
"We are not knights who uphold the value of chivalry, we are just people living in the shadows of darkness, we will do whatever it takes to rise back our kingdom"
Scout took over the conversation.
"The 42 years from before the war to the present, we have been together all this time and Commander Orton has always led us.
It's hard for us to follow orders to believe in a noble's decision. Those who received nobility in Lunaria less than 1 year"
Hahaha, this is getting more and more interesting.
"His Majesty told us that you are at the master level. Master. A great person I respect they, but the Shadow Phantom Order is not an Ordinary A Rank Elite Knight.
We don't want to be under the leadership of someone who doesn't deserve it, because he's also a sword user. You understand right? that words don't mean much"
.....
"Kuhahahahaha!"
"She's laughing!"
"What does this mean?"
"Are you insulting us?!"
It made me laugh out loud, I've never heard of anything like this before, such strong royalty? bond? that's ridiculous.
Their royalty towards someone makes my stomach hurt, but what they say amazes me.
"Ah I'm sorry, you guys say interesting things, that's true, what you say is true. I forgot such a simple thing.
I can make you surrender with force right? that's the style of a Yakuza"
With an air of intimidation, I told them, hoping they would bow to me.
"So how?"
"What do you mean?"
Hmm looks like they won't bow to just intimidation, then let's use the Yakuza way.
I pointed down.
"Are you worthy of my leadership? Prove it to me. 45 of you, come here together"
Scout with angry tone.
"What did you say?!! YOU HAVE TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR WORDS!"
I stretched out my hand.
"Perfect, every one of you is above the level of a Waka Gashira"
(Waka Gashira is like the Executive of the Yakuza clan who governs several gangs in several administrative areas)
Every Knight in front of me drew out his sword.
"Right, this is the level you have to reach, to be worthy of a big name like Shadow Phantom"
"DO YOU FEEL YOU DON'T NEED A SWORD TO FIGHT US?"
I folded my arms behind my back, using a sword, not Yakuza style, even if it included, we used our limbs to show the eagle how high the eagle could fly above the Dragon.
"I don't know, I'll know against you guys because you don't uphold the value of knighthood, that means you don't care about the code of knighthood right? Then go ahead "
Since they still didn't move I walked in front of them.
"Do you guys think you can injure me with just 45 people? Since I don't have a sword, I'll be using some self-invented techniques, it's the perfect timing"
"Attack! SHOW HIM WHO WE ARE?!!"
"WE ARE" (simultaneously )
"LUNARIA SHADOW!" (simultaneously)
10 of them jumped at me and attacked in unison, the rest spread out in all directions.
Dragon-arts [ Gentle Dragon Fist ]
I slammed my fists at those who attacked me at the same time. sending them flying, the ground in front of me also crumbled from the pressure of the [Gentle Dragon Fist] technique.
"WHAT'S THAT?!!"
Those on my right were caught off guard. They made a perfect one just now for my new technique.
"You guys stand on the perfect point So Breakers [One point]"
My 2 fingers pointing at them let out a Mana shot that hit them at the same time.
Someone from behind me tried to attack me, according to my prediction, my left hand which was behind me aimed at him.
[Buddha Palm]
The knight was blown away, smashing the wall. I looked around me, the training building where we were fighting was completely destroyed.
"Damn, I forgot to hold back my strength and got carried away"
