“Dad always says that at the last minute!”

 

Pelliot, who had left his nagging daughter on the floor, turned around and walked towards the center of the arena. Leonia chased after him and nagged.

 

“You think you have a lot of money, a handsome face, muscle, and a high title, that’s all.”

 

“Huh.”

 

Pelliot was proud.

 

“That’s right!”

 

Leonia also agreed.

 

“What do you want to say?”

 

As he listened, Pelliot tapped Leonia’s nose with his finger. Leonia wiped her eyes softly and covered her nose with her hand.

 

“It’s just that dad like that is a little annoying, but you’re still my dad, so it means that I take care of him.”

 

“Thank you for looking at me for snobbish reasons.”

 

“If you are grateful, write in your will that all the estate of Duke Voerotti will be passed on to the one and only daughter, Leonia. Put a little mention of transferring all authority.”

 

“Looks like I will be assassinated by my daughter.”

 

“Dad’s face looks like you’re going to be assassinated.”

 

She was less inclined to lose, so the baby beast barked constantly.

 

“My daughter is full of energy.”

 

If it had been anyone else, he would have chased them away because it was noisy and annoying, but the father beast gladly listened to his daughter’s babbling as she tried to catch him. Just as Leonia missed Pelliot’s jokes, so he missed his daughter’s chatter.

 

“But why is there no one there?”

 

The child, who had been talking for a while, looked around. Why did her voice seem to resonate? In this spacious training ground, only two people were standing. Meleis, who brought Leonia to this place a while ago, also disappeared.

 

“Today, we will use the whole thing.”

 

“Oh my goodness!”

 

Leonia placed her hand on her chest.

 

“My heart was pounding!”

 

“Where?”

 

The old man didn’t say anything that her daughter would like, but Pelliot frowned in one of her eyes.

 

“You rented the whole building for me!”

 

“Daughter, this is originally ours.”

 

It is said that Duke Voreotti uses the indoor training ground built inside the Duke’s residence. Pelliot seriously thought that Leonia needed a mindset to use her family’s assets to her heart’s content, not a childlike innocence.

 

“But for me…….”

 

“To be exact, for the knights.”

 

There were many variables for Leonia, who still couldn’t properly handle the fangs of the beasts. In particular, she was very likely to run rampant like the last time and make a mess around. So Pelliot sent all the knights to the outdoor training ground just in case.

 

“If the knights get hurt, will you take responsibility?”

 

“Dad, I’m annoyed…….”

 

As Leonia pierced her eyes, the smile on her lips that as if ascended to heaven drooped.

 

Anyway, the training started.

 

Pelliot picked up a stick that was nearby and scratched it on the floor.

 

“The fangs of beasts.”

 

A lump was drawn on the floor of the training ground. Leonia squatted and stared intently at the lump her dad had drawn. It wasn’t because of her feelings that the image of the fluffy cloud cream puff came up. It was really like the cream puff that was shaken around in the box and the cream popped out.

 

“…… dad.”

 

Leonia hesitated.

 

“What’s this?”

 

“The fangs of beasts.”

 

“…… it’s not?”

 

If there was a choice between birth and death, Pelliot’s pictures were between disaster and ruin.

 

“The world was fair, as expected.”

 

“…… I drew your face.”

 

“So what are the fangs?”

 

Leonia smirked and changed her words. Pelliot looked at his savvy daughter with distaste, and then with a brief sigh, forgave her and continued. Had she not been his daughter, she would have been kicked out right away.

 

‘I’m really out of date, too.’

 

He can’t deal with his daughter playing on top of his head.

 

“…… The fangs of the beasts are a power that has been passed down since the Voreotti family was even called Voreotti . No one knows its origin. Even the oldest records say that people with these powers live in the North.”

 

“Oldest record?”

 

“Annals of the First Emperor.”

 

“Is there anything like that?”

 

“I understand that your ignorance is only at the bottom of the mountain range.”

 

It’s not like he’s the type of person to be beaten quietly, so Pelliot, who gave a quick retort, drew two sketches under the cream puffs presumed to be fangs.

 

“Come, magic.”

 

“…….”

 

Leonia witnessed the moment when Pelliot paused while trying to draw an aura a while ago. But for the sake of her dad’s sky high self-esteem, she decided to pretend she didn’t see it.

 

“The fangs of wild beasts can use the same power of these two.”

 

Just as auras are manifested through the body and weapons, including swords, the fangs of beasts can also enhance the body and weapons. And just as magic can be used by borrowing the power of natural elements, the fangs of the beasts can also use natural elements to use magic-like powers.

 

“Oh oh.”

 

Leonia clapped her hands and cheered.

 

“And maybe Leo, you’ve been through both.”

 

“Two?”

 

Leonia tilted her head.

 

The magic had been used similarly the other day while her fangs ran rampant. In the sparse memory, large, sharp icy thorns soared fiercely, and the air became cold enough to cause white breaths. As if sympathizing with her own feelings that had subsided coldly.

 

But she had no memory of it strengthening her body.

 

“…… Maybe in the orphanage.”

 

Pelliot carefully guessed.

 

“It may have been triggered unconsciously when you were abused in the orphanage.”

 

The fact that Leonia was being abused by the director and adults at the orphanage was confirmed through the report that Lupert had investigated. Because of her unbending personality, there were many conflicts.

 

Pelliot thought it was a miracle that Leonia was able to survive in such abuse. The orphanage teachers’ violence written in the report was too disgusting to even speak of. Leonia’s ability to keep her sanity was tolerable.

 

“Leo, the fangs that were sleeping inside you, very likely have saved your body and your life.”

 

Of course, this was all just speculation. However, Leonia did not dislike Pelliot’s guess.

 

“…… Then it was Voreotti who protected me.”

 

She was happy to be connected with her dad, even in that way.

 

“Hehe.”

Leonia, who was smiling foolishly, twisted her body.

 

“What’s so funny.”

 

Instead of making fun of the child this time, Pelliot also reached out and stroked her head with his large hand. It was nice to feel the soft hair that felt under the palm of his hand, her body temperature a few degrees higher than his, and the cheerful laughter.

 

It was strange but also apologetic for being able to endure well in that hellish place. At the same time, resentment toward the irresponsible parents who left the child alone also boiled over.

 

“Let me show you an example.”

 

After excluding those feelings for a moment, Pelliot took a step back. Red aura spread like mist over his black eyes. Soon the child’s eyes gleamed like gold dust hidden in the water. The two fangs resonated.

 

‘…… this.’

 

It felt pretty good.

 

Pelliot pressed his strength to the corner of his lips that was about to rise. Just seeing his daughter looking at him with bright eyes like that made his heart flutter. He also had a desire to show a better side of himself. For the first time, he who had never been impressed with the fangs of the beast, was proud of it.

 

‘Yes, if possible.’

 

He has to show Leo a good look. As a result, strength came into his shoulders. Pelliot, who had red fangs all over his body, cut the stick he was holding in two with one hand.

 

The crackling sound was just as light as when strawberry milk candy fell to the floor and cracked.

 

“This…….”

 

Pelliot, who had been holding the energy of fangs in a single broken stick, moved his gaze. Pelliot, looking at the expected Leonia, dropped the stick containing the energy of fangs as if he had accidentally lost it from his hand. The stick was nailed to the floor of the training ground as if falling into a sandy beach.

  

 

“I strengthened my body like an aura and put it on stick.”

 

“Uwaaaa!”

 

Leonia knelt down on the floor and traced the stabbed floor with his hand. Not a single piece of stone protruded from the crack, let alone broke .

 

‘I heard this was very hard!’

 

She remembered Meleis and Pavo’s explanation of the training ground installed in the center of the indoor training ground the other day. There were only three sword masters who dealt with auras, so they used the hardest and most expensive stone in the Empire as a material to withstand it.

 

But to stick it in like biting cream puffs with her teeth with just a broken stick.

 

“Dad is cool!”

 

“Look at this,” Leonia continued to point her finger at the stabbed floor.

 

“It’s stuck!”

 

“Yes, I know.”

 

“Wow! Amazing!”

 

Leonia cheered enthusiastically. The child was unable to stand still and smashed her feet to the floor.

 

‘As expected, your parents are good.’

 

The child must be very impressed, Pelliot said to himself.

 

“Very clean!”

 

“I did.”

 

The voice that answered calmly was full of pride that he did it.

 

“Then you can do this like magic.”

 

After that, a final demonstration was also presented. The stick that had been embedded in the floor was engulfed in bright red flames. Leonia, who was watching it closely, was startled and fell on her buttocks.

 

“Oh!”

 

But both eyes were still looking at the stick.

 

“Dad is cool…… !”

 

Leonia, who was overjoyed with emotion, waved her hand violently. The baby beast, who witnessed the power of the fangs of the beast, was very excited.

 

“…… But, can I do it?”

 

But it quickly drooped.

 

“Dad is very accustomed to doing it, but I can’t…….”

 

The fangs, which were first exposed, were dragged up by the raging anger and ran wild, causing considerable damage. In addition, her memory of that day was so hazy that she couldn’t even remember how she had activated the fangs.

 

She was full of will at first, but when she tried to do it, she was at a loss.

 

“Leo.”

 

Two of his fingers raised the corner of the child’s droopy mouth. Pelliot’s black eyes, with the fangs stuck in them, captured the child.

 

“Everyone has a first.”

 

The Knights of Gladigo, the strongest in the Empire, the competent secretary Loupe, the butler Kara, and Connie who braids Leonia’s hair beautifully can’t do everything at the beginning..

 

“And I will teach you.”

 

The black beasts of the world teaches him, and he smiled leisurely, saying that’ There’s no way you can’t do it.’ How reassured that arrogance was, Leonia’s lips went up even though Pelliot’s fingers had not held it up.

 

“So don’t be discouraged.”

 

“Yes…… !”

 

Leonia clenched her fists tightly as if cheering. It meant that she has come to her senses now.

 

“Then what should I do?”

 

What should I do first?

 

Black eyes full of anticipation gleamed with enthusiasm.

 

“…… Gasp, gaassp.”

 

The sound of suffocation echoed throughout the training ground.

 

“I, I’m dying…….”

 

“You’re not going to die like that.”

 

Leonia, who barely managed to run three laps on an indoor training ground equivalent to a mansion, climbed up almost crawling to the training ground. She lay flat on the floor, breathing heavily.

 

“Dad really, gaasp, I’m not your, real daughter…… !”

 

The eyes of the resentful child were bitter.

 

“Where is a father who cares this much for you?”

 

Pelliot, who brought water to drink, was very sad.

 

“In order to properly handle the fangs of the beast, physical strength is essential. How severe will the side effects be.”

 

“Side effects?”

 

Leonia, who barely sat on the floor, supported by Pelliot, swallowed the water, and asked. This was a setting that was not revealed at all in the original story.

 

“Is there such a thing? You’re not strong enough to kill?”

 

“It’s not what those who suffered a lot from the fangs of the beast would say.”

 

Ah, Leonia nodded her head.

 

“Then what are the side effects? Are you serious?”

 

Leonia recalled the days she lay ill with a high fever. Thinking back, her limbs were numb.

 

“Headache and chills.”

 

Rash and hives. Body aches with muscle pain, and others.

 

Pelliot explained the side effects of the fangs of the beast that have been identified so far.

 

“What kind of nonsense is this?”

 

The fangs of the beast became a cold medicine sold in the market in an instant.

 

This is how Leonia’s first training ended.
