NovelEnglishGorilla VS Bear [Part 2]
The king raised his longsword as if to say this would be the finishing blow.
And George, who had lost his balance, didn’t seem like he would be able to dodge it.
“Woaaaahhh…… huh?”
However, the king stopped his movement at a critical moment, right before his sword could touch George.
“…George-kun?”
“Y-Your Majesty! Have you perhaps… regained your… sanity…”
‘Whew. I was saved…’ George looked relieved—
“Something moved over there just now, right? Let’s practice another time. C’mon, our prey is going to run away! WOO HOO! Hurry up!”
“No, he hasn’t…”

“Everyone! We’ll bring down that monster!”
“ “ “R-Roger!” ” ”
He even took the hunters and knights who weren’t in their right minds along with him.
Even under status effects, the king’s charismatic leadership was still needlessly going strong.
“Eh, wait, don’t go off on your own!”
‘They should stay here until Father and Uncle return… or at least that’s what I hoped…’ William called the king, who went to chase the monster in high spirits, but the king’s mind was full of the new prey, and there was no way he could hear William.
“Nii-sama, His Majesty is running towards the depths of the forest. If we advance any further than this, we will be too close to the barrier.”
The closer they were to the barrier, the more they would encounter monsters.
“Laymen… are seriously scaryyy. William, we’ll chase after them.”
“Yes!”
Thus, they didn’t get to regroup with their father, Leonard, who went ahead first, and the monster-hunting party got completely divided into two.

On the other side, the womenfolk staying at the campsite in front of the forest tried their best to comfort Marion, who became depressed because she wasn’t allowed to participate in hunting.
“Marion-sama, cheer up!”
Francesca patted Marion’s back gently.
“Thank you, Francesca-sama. Yeah. I have also started to vaguely realize this… how it will be difficult for a noble young lady to become a knight…”
Marion had aimed to be a knight since she was a child. However, the opposition from her surroundings intensified as she grew up and became closer to her dream.
—How can a girl be a knight?
Remember that you are a young lady from a Duke household.
What if you get hurt?
What if it leaves scars?

“You don’t have to go out of your way to be a knight, a job that is always accompanied by danger, do you?
You’re not a child anymore. Be sensible.”
It was just the other day that her father gave her a warning.
“Perhaps it’s about time I give up…”
Marion showed a weak look, unlike her usual self.
“Oh my, I heard that the Knight Order is a meritocracy, isn’t it, Caitlyn?”
“Marion-sama is stronger than any noble sons around there, so I think if she takes the recruitment exam, she will definitely pass. Right, Catherine?”
Why give up when you have real ability… The twins tilted their heads in puzzlement.
Marion’s sword didn’t lose out to any noble son. All the noble sons who underestimated her because she was a woman were all beaten black and blue.
The problem was that it was up to the upper management of the Knight Order to decide whether to hire the applicants. The majority of the upper management was people with family ties to House Bell. The head of the said House Bell was Marion’s father, the Knight Order Commander. As Marion’s father didn’t like the idea of Marion joining the order, there was a high possibility that Marion would be intentionally rejected even if she had real abilities and passed the entrance exam. Marion thought she might be able to persuade her father somehow, but they had never reached an agreement as neither side compromised on their thoughts.
“Well, there’s a lot of difficulties. I’m sorry, everyone. I have made the atmosphere gloomy… I can’t keep chasing my dreams forever.”
