Chapter 31
Towards the entrance exam
After dinner, I went back to my room. My father didn’t seem convinced yet, but he also agreed with my mother and she didn’t say it strongly.
Everything has to be taken and passed the Knights’ entrance exam tomorrow.
What are the entrance exams? I thought for a moment about asking my brother, but you shouldn’t be such a cowardly imitator.
Whatever the trials, they must be overcome.
Though.
“What do you think Natalia is like with the Knights’ entrance exam?
“What do you think? I don’t know…”
Enough to deduce like this.
At the very least, every condition must be considered so that we can deal with any exam.
“It’s the Knights, and isn’t it a test to weigh your combat abilities”
“Again, do you think so?
“Or it could be a measure of your overall motor ability. Probably not.”
“Hmm…”
I don’t know how much athletic ability a public girl would have, but I was very low on athletic skills in school.
The athletic score is at the bottom of the house, and I worked hard to sit down to save you.
I don’t think I’m going to take an exercise test.
“Is there any way to get physical overnight?”
“… that’s just it, there isn’t”
“Me, too, I think that only exists in boulders.”
You can’t help telling such a dream story. You have to look at reality.
How I manage to pass the exam when I run slow, my body is stiff, and my powers are weak.
I’ll think about it, but I’m not getting any answers.
“Again, is it impossible…”
I told my mother, it’s true that I thought you all looked good in the Knights.
Master Wilhelm is also a Rin, but he may also feel the position of the Knights Commander.
But just the admiration of the woman in question, can’t you get in or something?
“Lady.”
“What is it?
“Assuming the Knights exam is in general athletic ability, it would seem tough on the lady”
“I think so too”
Even from Natalia’s eyes, still in my physical abilities, it must be harsh.
Then I have to figure out a way to do something about it.
“While overstepping…… Being a squire, I want my daughter’s wishes to come true, as much as I can. And for that, you can use this.”
“… Natalia”
Natalia’s words, though, are very far-fetched.
This is what you’re saying to me.
He said he would join the Knights.
Some will wonder what it means to do that, but it’s never the wrong means.
I also learned the laws of this country when I was educated as queen. That also includes the rules of the Knights. I have always admired Master Wilhelm, so I remember him very well, especially about the Knights’ relationship.
There are two kinds of knights.
I am an orthodox knight and an obedient knight.
And the Orthodox Knight refers to those who have passed the Knights’ entrance exam. An obedient knight is one who has the role of obeying such an orthodox knight. And I don’t need an enlistment exam for a squire, it’s just a good story if a straight knight makes a nomination.
And there is no great difference between a righteous knight and an obedient knight, except for salaries.
With that hand, I’ll be able to join the Knights, too.
But…
“Natalia.”
“Ha”
“My mother said: Let them pass the exam on their own. With Natalia’s help, it won’t be recognized by your mother.”
“Ugh…”
On my own, I was told. You can’t help Natalia.
Natalia bowed her head, “I’m sorry,”
“No, I’m fine. But I have to pass on my own.”
“Then what are you going to do?
“It’s…”
Think. How can I join the Knights?
I will desperately put my head around it. Mobilize your knowledge and even think about it.
There is no need at all for the Knights’ entrance exams for the education they received as queens. The law was tapped in enough to recite, and courtesy was made to practice over and over again. I also know national customs better than bad diplomats. They also learned about pharmacy and medicine, literature and chemistry. I was made to study like every day, that academics go through everything.
I’m sure that’s probably one reason I don’t have the strength.
But…
“Ha!”
So, I figured it out.
I’m on my way to the Knights.
“… I see”
I’m sure your mother sees everything.
With my athletic ability, I can’t possibly pass the Knights exam.
So that’s how you suppressed your father’s opposition by poking at unscrupulous conditions.
If Mother were to use the power of the Duke’s family to imitate that which would force the Knights to join, that would have been Father’s fierce opposition.
That’s why, at the end of the day, Mother gave me some advice.
“My mother said. There is not one way, think carefully.”
“Ha… what is that?
Perhaps anyone’s ear would have heard, ‘Rethink carefully, because joining the Knights is not the only way’.
But if you think about it, you can also take it this way.
Instead of just taking the exam flush, look for the way to pass, he said.
This was the advice you gave me to be my mother.
“I see it. There’s a way for me to pass.”
“Is it true!?
“But…… I just have to think about it a little bit. Natalia, are you recruiting for the Women’s Knights… any paper you’re distributing?
“No… there’s no paper or anything out there, but I think there was a sign in the Female Knights garrison”
“Find out what it is as soon as possible.”
It’s already past the evening.
I’d like to go see for myself if I can, but my outing won’t be allowed. Even with Natalia, going out after dinner is restricted.
So I’ll do it to use Natalia.
“I understand. Just a moment, ma’am.”
“Yes.”
Natalia will give you a hand and you will come out.
If I’m right, I’m sure you’re recruiting.
And I would be able to pass that.
In no time, Natalia is back.
“Ma’am, I checked in.”
“Then tell me that”
“Yes, then…”
Natalia is pleased to announce the requirements for recruiting women’s knights.
You must have read it over and over and remembered it properly.
And what’s its contents.
Mine, as I thought…
“Well, that’s not a problem”
“Um, lady…… what do you mean?
“Tomorrow, I’ll see. Will Natalia join the Knights as well? All of a sudden, I’m worried that no one I know, and I’ll tell my mother tomorrow so that if I pass, Natalia can take the exam too.”
“Yes. I understand that.”
Everything is tomorrow.
With my mother, I come to take the exam.
Not necessarily.
Carol, let me be a knight, Master Wilhelm…
