Chapter 95: Provocative Remarks Against the Enemy
“Hey, Ishud, can’t we just take a dip in the bath?”
“Stop it, stop it. If you get in now, you’ll sink.”
Ishud warned with a laugh as Gulf and the others contemplated getting into the bathtub.
However, Gulf, along with Dustin, Waltz, and the others, earnestly wanted to soak in the hot water.
“Alright, let’s head for lunch!! The chefs have prepared some delicious food, so make sure to eat up!!”
After refreshing themselves, they headed straight to the dining hall… and as Ishud said, a variety of dishes were already laid out.
(Man, no matter what, I can’t resist this aroma.)

To be honest, Philip didn’t think he could eat as heartily as Ishud suggested for lunch.
He worried that if there was training after lunch until dinner, he wouldn’t be able to stomach it.
But when the dishes prepared by the chefs serving the Regula family were presented before them… everyone began eating without hesitation.
“Ah, yes, it’s great to see you all enjoying your meal, but try to leave some room. About seventy percent full should do.”
Although Ishud had encouraged them to eat heartily, observing Gulf and the others devouring their food, it seemed they were going to eat until they were completely full, so he felt it necessary to advise them.
“Ah, you’re right.”
When Christille, who had been engrossed in eating, responded to his advice, the others snapped out of it too and slowed down their eating pace.
After finishing lunch, Ishud didn’t immediately start the training… at least not right away.
“You don’t have to run or anything, just keep moving lightly.”
“Isn’t it normal to have a rest after a meal?”
“We are having a meal break right now, aren’t we? If you just laze around after stuffing yourself, you’ll end up gaining weight.”

“What!!??”
As Philip thought about the lack of delicacy in Ishud’s words, Michela couldn’t help but cover… not her stomach, but her chest.
(He said gaining weight, but she’s worried about that instead of her stomach. Well, for some people, maybe they equate getting bigger there with gaining weight… Truly, Big Boobs.)
He refrained from voicing his thoughts and kept them to himself.
“Ugh, I just want to lie down.”
“Hahaha, is it okay if you gain weight, Philip?”
“It’s fine, it’s fine. My body doesn’t gain weight no matter how much I eat.”
Philip followed Ishud’s instructions and continued to walk, but he declared that he wouldn’t gain weight even if he slacked off after eating.
Perhaps it was because he still had a good metabolism as a student, or maybe those words just slipped out, but it was definitely a statement that turned the female members against him.
“Hey, did you really think about these things during training since you were a kid?”
Ad
He wasn’t the savage they had heard rumors about. That was clear from getting to know him and becoming friends with him.
Still, when considering the training they had undergone from morning till noon, among other things, it filled one’s mind with question marks to think he might have been pondering such matters since childhood.
“Nah, not at all. When I was a kid, I just enjoyed swinging weapons and fighting… Maybe I thought a bit strategically during battles, but I only really started thinking deeply about it during actual combat. The training methods we used earlier, I thought about what kind of training would help kids like Gulf, Waltz, and Lyune put their efforts into results.”
Until a certain age, Ishud had just kept charging forward.
And it was only when he gained some level of confidence that he began to focus on those aspects.
“…Are you aiming to be an instructor in the future?”
“Instructor, huh… Certainly, I’ve learned a lot from various people, but I also admire those like Grandpa Alfred and Great-Grandpa Roberto, who remain active for life.”
Remaining active for life.
It might be tempting to call that impossible, but Gulf and the others had seen the well-trained, battle-hardened physique of Ishud’s grandfather, Alfred.
(That does seem rather impossible, doesn’t it?)
(Remaining active for life… That’s right. Just because something seems difficult doesn’t mean we should give up from the start.)
(Hmm… Wait a moment. Ishud has enough wealth to buy elixirs, right? In that case, if he can somehow help those old grandpas who seem to be nearing the end of their lives… Does that mean that in the future, the Regula family will have multiple forces at the level of demigods?)
Philip was starting to lose track of his own thoughts, but he couldn’t help feeling that his idea wasn’t completely off base—something that couldn’t be realized.
“Until when do you plan to keep fighting, then?”
“Exactly as it sounds. Well, if the circumstances of the Regula family’s territory change by then, there might be another path… Anyway, you guys can keep lightly moving your bodies. Think about what kind of weapons you’d like to try besides the ones you usually use.”
“So, we’ll fight using those weapons next time?”
“That’s the idea, Ibuki. When the training starts in the afternoon, for about two and a half hours, you’ll switch weapons frequently during battles. After that, I’ll provide guidance. Though, the only weapon I’m confident in teaching is the battle-axe.”
While Ishud could come up with unconventional training methods within the Regula family, he lacked confidence in giving detailed technical instructions.
Therefore, multiple knights were conducting training in different locations for the sake of Gulf and the others, preparing to arrive on time.
“All right, break time’s over. Now, choose the weapon that interests you.”
Since many sturdy weapons are available, it’s no problem at all even if they break during combat.
“The rules of the match are the same as before. Fight flamboyantly.”
That’s all for the explanation.
The match started immediately… Ishud, as usual, held specially processed super heavy training gear in both hands and began squatting.
(Hmm… maybe because they changed the weapon they used in the morning, there’s clearly a difference… well, it won’t be a good experience otherwise.)
Ishud, watching while doing strength training.
He laughed heartily at the occasional rare play caused by using unfamiliar weapons.
