I have greatly enjoyed that curious trick of yours, Swordsman-in-training,
Sir Eugeo. What are your opinions on gaining employment in the Imperial
Acrobatics Troupe after graduation?"
"...I am very much in your debt for the concern you have granted me,
Swordsman-in-training Antinous."
He tried omitting the «Head» and «-dono» as a rebuff at the very least, but
Raios showed no indication of minding it and returned a composed nod
before he started on the walk towards the entryway. Humbert who
followed after him glared at Eugeo with the corners of his eyes lifted as
high as he could manage.
With his soft leather shoes used for practice squeaking as he walked, Raios
stopped when he passed by Eugeo who was still standing in the middle of
the practice arena and murmured in a deep voice.
"I'll show you the true power of a noble next time."
"...I don't mind it even now, though."
He was frankly totally exhausted after four hundred practice swings and
the unexpected duel, but Eugeo still replied so, half through stubbornness.
However, Raios gave a snickering grin before starting on his way once
again and spoke in an even more faint voice.
