I was exposed as the strongest magician to my sister, who has severe brother complex. I can no longer hide my abilities at school! - Chapter 18 : Her Royal Highness, The Princess

Chapter 18 : Her Royal Highness, The Princess

People have a tendency to firmly decide that the ‘information in front of their eyes’ is a strong fact, which is, of course, a natural tendency.

The person in front of Alvin is a girl. Once that recognition is made, the conclusion that this person is a girl begins to conclude in their minds.

The reality might be that she just has long hair and a somewhat feminine face.

However, judging based on the information in front of them is also understandable. After all, there is no other material for judgment.

And so, the second princess, Lieselotte Larelia, who appeared in front of the aspiring members, was the same.

Frequently seen in high society, enrolled in the academy, beautiful appearance, overflowing with elegance, and close in age to themselves.

But, is she stronger than Cecil, the knight commander of the academy? Alving has never heard of such a thing.

That’s right… It’s because all official announcements were left to the vice-commander and not publicly disclosed.

“Cough, it was quite embarrassing personally, but… Nice to meet you. You may already know me, but I’m Lieselotte Larelia, serving as the commander of this knight order.”

Among the aspiring members who didn’t know her, Lieselotte lightly bowed.

“From me as well, welcome to the knight order. We appreciate your willingness to step into this and try. However, as mentioned by Cecil… we cannot allow an inexperienced person to join the knight order.”

Therefore, Lieselotte drew two wooden swords strapped to her waist.

Just that, and a new tension spread in the training ground.

Whether they took it as a signal, the members of the knight order present slowly distanced themselves from the scene.

“Actually, I would like to abolish such entrance exams… but it can’t be helped due to tradition. It’s also a customary event, so I will do my best.”

The rules are simple. Just hit Lieselotte once.

Any method is fine. Whether it’s a fist or a thrown sword, as long as it touches any part of her body, that student will be recognized for entry.

“However, there seem to be aspiring healers among the entrance examinees.”

“Y-Yes!”

Not by name, but called indirectly, Sophia replied in a slightly strained voice.

Lieselotte made eye contact with Cecil and prompted her to separate Sophia.

Responding to Cecil’s beckoning, Sophia glanced briefly at Alvin and headed towards the location of the knight apprentices.

“Sophia-chan, if you can successfully treat the injured who will come out, you pass~!”

“If no one gets injured, then—”

“Ah, it’s okay, it’s okay! There are always injuries every year, you know?”

‘I just want to go home… Is that bad?’ Alvin heard from the bottom of his heart as he heard Cecil’s words.

“Well then, we shouldn’t waste any more time. Let’s start right away.”

The aspiring members swallowed nervously and drew the wooden swords at their waists in the same way.

However, the opponent is one person. Moreover, a princess who literally grew up in a greenhouse.

She has received guidance and has some strength, and the opponent is an unusual girl not befitting for a knight.

And, when facing this number all at once — it seems like an easy win. Many had such thoughts in their mind.

“Just a piece of advice. In the knight order, regardless of age, a hierarchy is established based on strength. In other words—”

However, realizing that it was arrogance comes only a few seconds later.

“I, despite my appearance, am strong, you know.”

As soon as she said that, Lieselotte’s figure disappeared.

Where did she go? By the time the question arose, a shadow appeared in the field of vision of one of the aspiring members.

“Oh no!” The one who had the hilt thrust into their tailbone collapsed to the ground.

But, without confirming that, Lieselotte had already slipped into the range of the next aspiring member.

Even if the sword is swung down, she blocks it with a sword, and the other sword punches the side.

Swiftly, at a speed that couldn’t be followed with the eyes, Lieselotte created panic among the aspiring members.

How to deal with it? The opponent is a girl, right? Is it okay to point a sword at a princess?

…No, there’s no time to say such things.

The aspiring members attacked Lieselotte all at once.

Presumably trying to take advantage of the numbers. However, Lieselotte continued to defeat each one with precise strikes without changing her expression.

“Well, she’s certainly strong… but I feel like she’s about the same as Nee-san.” Watching without rushing, Alvin thought.

“But, isn’t it okay for me to lose this? Actually, she said I got the job and all, but she doesn’t seem to want to let me join.”

In fact, she might be holding back.

Still, watching Lieselotte mercilessly defeat one person after another, Alvin couldn’t help but feel, “It’s probably fine even if I lose for the sake of a lazy life in the future.”

“Al-kun! If you lose, I won’t let you sleep tonight!”

“Which is it!? Is it training all night because it’s pathetic, or is it a simple crisis of my chastity, which is it, Nee-san!?”

“……….(Pfft)”

“Nee-san!?”

Alvin heard his sister’s encouragement from the spectator seats.

Seeing the blush on her cheeks, Alvin couldn’t help but feel a chill down his spine.

It seems that the frequency of threats has increased even more since she learned of his strength.

At that moment, Lieselotte had just finished defeating the eighth person.

She doesn’t seem to have any intention of leaving anyone.

Lieselotte’s two wooden swords were pointed at Alvin.

And, with her impressive speed, she immediately appeared in front of Alvin.

But something unexpected happened… 

Just like before, she swung her sword in order to defeat him.

However, something appeared in her vision… and it was not just Alvin.

“Huh?”

Something aiming for her neck appeared in Lieselotte’s field of vision.

“…..!?”

Lieselotte instinctively placed her sword in front of her neck to stop the incoming attack.

At that moment, a heavy impact and a dull sound echoed against her neck and the sword.

It was only after that that Lieselotte realized that it was due to Alvin’s leg.

“Uh… did you just stop that?”

“I was surprised… who said the Duke’s son was disgraceful? I didn’t expect this at all.”

“Well, it’s a fact, so what can you do?”

“As expected of Cecil’s brother… I understand why she was bragging about you with shining eyes.”

“Even the princess knows of my nee-san’s embarrassing talks!”

Alvin covered his face with both hands and cried, watching his sister from the stands.

Seeing that, Lieselotte laughed.

“I thought this entrance exam was boring because it’s a customary event… but unexpectedly, it seems enjoyable.”

Saying that, Lieselotte kicked the ground with a smile on her face.
