When life becomes regular, time seems to pass quickly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

A lot of things are changing.

A year and a half has passed, and Sulfona has been suppressed and developed by her body. Now Sulfona is as tall as Tifa - by the way, Tifa has only grown ten centimeters in almost two years.

Now Tifa can't touch Sulfona's head at will.

"It's like a telephone pole, it's ugly and dead. Tifa pouted and made a fuss.

"What is a telephone pole?"

"It's people like you. Tifa said as she tugged at Sulfona's double ponytail.

Sulfona now has long hair, and that's at Tifa's insistence, of course. Tifa believes that Sulfur lacks special "attributes" and rare "cuteness". And the hairstyle with a double ponytail is the only magic weapon that changes everything. Among the common people, girls don't have too long hair when they are young, because it is very troublesome to take care of. Water is one of the more precious resources. Farmers who bathe once a week think it's a waste to use water to wash their hair. It is only when they enter the stage of being a teenager that girls begin to grow their hair. After getting married, it is usually cut to shoulder length again.

"Strange feeling. ”

Sulfona touched the two pigtails on either side of her head, a confused expression on her face. Sulfona had never had such long hair. At such times, Tifa would have little stars in her eyes and hug Sulfur and rub it around. Tifa herself does not use a double ponytail, she has shoulder-length short hair, which she calls "the main character's hairstyle".

Doris, on the other hand, is only slightly taller than Tifa, but she is the prettiest of the girls. Medium-length crimson hair makes Doris look quiet and substantial, and her usual timid and cowardly expression can easily arouse a man's desire to protect. Although Doris is weak, her physical fitness is quite good.

Under Tifa's tutelage, Doris gradually keeps up with the collective training. I don't know if this is due to the excellent guiding significance of Tifa's concept of "scientific training", or if Doris has great potential in the first place. Either way, Tifa was greatly encouraged by this. Therefore, she added "Tai Chi", "Baguazhang", "National Primary School Radio Gymnastics" and other things in between dance and martial arts to her daily training for Sulfura and Doris. However, after practicing for a while, it seems that Tifa is inexplicably disappointed.

"Didn't you create internal forces......

All in all, Tifa's trio had a great time. On the other side, Jaslin also began to make a makeover. Jaslin didn't break her promise, and she disbanded the trainees who used to gather around her and chatter. However, the girl who hated Doris because her roommate was eliminated did not follow Jaslin.

This girl named Duda is unexpectedly stubborn.

Duda: "Did I do something wrong?

Jaslin: "No, you didn't do anything wrong. Come to me when you become a warrior. ”

Duda: "And before you become a warrior?"

Jaslin: "That's your freedom, you can go wherever you want." ”

Duda: "Then I choose to follow you." ”

Jaslin: "Why are you following me?"

Duda: "I don't know. ”

Jaslin: "Yes, if you knew, you wouldn't want to follow me." ”

After a string of RPG-like dialogues, Jaslin inexplicably softened and acquiesced to Duda's presence. With her dazzling blonde curls, Jaslin looks like a true aristocratic lady, even though she is actually from a commoner background. On the other side, Duda simply shaved his flat head and followed Jaslin silently. Such a master-servant duo has also become a very famous pair among the trainees. It's a pity that the "reformed" Jaslin was not able to redeem his image of falling to the lowest point in Tifa's heart, on the contrary, Tifa felt that Jaslin was even more hypocritical.

Another thing that can be called a change is the training content of the Great Sword trainees. The trainees who started with more than 200 people finally managed to enter the second stage after eliminating two-thirds of them. Girls don't have to run day and night anymore. Those who have been screened and left behind are "more valuable test items" for the organization, rather than "random raw materials".

As a result, organizations are starting to invest more in these children. The first step is to organize a systematic and scientific brainwashing work, and tell these half-grown girls everything that a warrior should abide by. Just like ikebana, bushido, and battle lanes, there is something close to "great kendo" formed in the organization.

"Warriors should slay demons in order to protect humanity. ”

"The warrior has renounced his human identity and fused with the flesh and blood of demons, and is a truly great believer in the Twin Goddesses. ”

"Even if the warrior is bathed in the strange eyes of humans, he will not waver in his faith. ”

"Warriors are accustomed to fighting side by side with loneliness, warriors regard forbearance as a compulsory course, warriors are motivated by boundless hatred of demons, and warriors regard dying as a human being the greatest honor. ”

"When a warrior is no longer able to slay a demon, she will send a black letter to her most trusted warrior. The old warrior will be beheaded by his companions, and his great sword will be used as a grave, forever accompanied by the mountain flowers and the black earth. ”

The organization also did not educate the girls day and night. They just took the trainees to visit several nearby sword tombs of the Great Sword. Seeing the broken sword standing on the ground, and the plain white flowers blooming beside it, the trainees couldn't help but feel a surge of blood in their hearts. Even Tifa was moved.

"They do deserve respect. ”

"Is there anyone else who doesn't deserve respect?" asked Sulfona, confused.

"Ah, all greatswords are worthy of respect. Tifa gave a rare look of seriousness, "But there are many people in the Stuff Order who don't deserve respect, they see the greatsword as a tool. I'm here to change that, and I hope there will be no more greatswords in this world. ”

"You say you respect the warriors, but you want them to go extinct?" said Thina felt that Tifa's words didn't match the words.

"Warriors are great, but the price of such greatness is too high. Tifa shook her head, "It's not fair to these girls, they shouldn't be used as tools." ”

"But didn't we all come here of our own free will?" Sulfura asked rhetorically, "I think even if I knew that I was just being used as a tool, the trainees would continue to stick to the rules of a warrior." Have you forgotten? Even if the warrior is bathed in the strange eyes of humans, he will not waver in his faith. Haven't we always been misunderstood by humans? The people in the organization are also human, and it's not strange to be misunderstood by them. ”

"You ......," Tifa was annoyed, "Haven't I usually educated you enough?, how can you be brainwashed so easily?, to hell with those rules." Aren't you angry when you're being used as a tool? You're a human being, you're not a tool!"

"But there's nothing wrong with being used as a tool. Peasant work can also be regarded as a tool for producing food, and the lord is a tool for managing everyone. And each of us is a tool of the Twin Goddesses. Everyone has their part to do their part, so that the world can maintain order. ”

"That's different!"

Believing in "humanism" and "liberal democracy", Tifa and Sona had a heated discussion, and their conversation touched on politics, economics, philosophy, religion, and so on, and the depth was no less than that of another Renaissance movement. The details are so esoteric that we won't go into detail here.

The two girls who were arguing about it didn't notice the strange look in Doris's eyes that followed them. Doris's presence was always minimal in the little trio, and she spent most of her time listening, and spent the rest of her time watching Tifa. Because Tifa dismisses the "Great Kendo" that the organization says, Doris also begins to disagree with the "Great Kendo". If Doris had chosen for herself, she would most likely stick to the "Tifa Way".

Doris's attitude towards Sulfur is somewhere between fear and reverence, and she finds Sulfur very powerful. Doris sees Tifa's closeness to Corna as part of Irona's ability to please God. During this time, Doris's admiration for Tifa continued unabated, but she was usually very inconspicuous, and no one noticed this somewhat distorted affection.

The discussion between Sulfur and Tifa gradually heats up. Topics such as "procedural justice" and "anti-intellectualism" have been raised in different forms. The reason why they understand so many profound truths is due to another change in the life of the trainees.

The trainees have started to take cultural classes.

Due to the special nature of the Greatsword's mission, they have to learn to blend in with humanity and disguise themselves as various identities. From a prostitute to a noblewoman, from a shepherd girl to a princess. In this way, Broadsword had to learn the human language, writing, history, and religion. When we talk about history, we will involve politics and the military, and when we talk about religion, we will talk about philosophy and dialectics. The organization wants the trainees to acquire all the knowledge they need to know in a short period of time, but unfortunately the trainees are a group of lively and active children, and it is difficult for them to receive a sudden cramming education. The trainees began to ask questions, such as Tifa in her religious class.

"Can the Twin Goddesses create a stone that they can't lift themselves?"

"When the twin goddesses were on a tour of the mainland, was it the first step taken by Gunia or the first step taken by Dinisha?"

"Does the statue of the twin goddesses erected by humans have the divine consciousness of the twin goddesses?"

These questions succeeded in causing the old gentleman, who is said to have studied the sacred texts all his life, to foam at the mouth and fall to the ground. The next day, Tifa's philosophy class was forced to graduate. Tifa's history class, on the other hand, was pretty bad, and she would always name her when answering questions that no one knew. The teacher got a lot of trouble with Tifa for this.

The two girls, Sulfur and Doris, were decent, and their grades in each subject were neither good nor bad. It was Sulfona who was scolded many times by the teacher for bringing food into the classroom. Doris, on the other hand, gets good grades in the Maiden's mock class and succeeds in getting Tifa to bleed from her nose.

Doris, who was watched by the class with strange eyes, was a little timid, and she just said a few words that a girl often said and did a few things that a girl often does.

Doris had no idea what she was doing wrong.

"Even if the warrior is bathed in the strange eyes of humans, he will not waver in his faith. Sulfona comforted from the side.

"Is that so......" Doris looked at Tifa in confusion and muttered "I have no regrets...... and was dragged out by the teacher.
