In all fairness, Paul would rather run to the cabin on the edge of town every time he held his pee, than go back to the old days when he could step on a piece of if he took two steps in the town. [ads:This site has a new URL,Shorthand method:,.]

Of course, public toilets have their drawbacks - for example, Nighttown now has an extremely harsh form of torture.

Whether it's the militia who make mistakes in training, or the townsfolk who violate the harsh "rules" laid down by Marlon in their daily lives, they will be sent...... Clean public toilets.

Paul certainly didn't have to be punished like that, but according to one militiaman who came back from cleaning the toilet, he absolutely, absolutely didn't want to fall behind in training a second time.

While Paul can understand the establishment of public toilets, there are other things ...... He didn't quite agree with Chief Lothar's thoughts, like now.

Not long ago, Paul and all the townspeople of Nighttown had heard the news that they were extremely surprised - Althea was going to have a one-on-one duel with a militia warrior, and this militia soldier had easily knocked Althea's sword to the ground three months earlier.

It's a joke - even now, Paul thinks that the difference in size between Althea and Nice is like that of a small/white/rabbit and a big bad wolf, neither in terms of strength nor training.

Paul knew that for the past three months, Althea had rarely trained with the militiamen, and that she had been learning another fighting technique from Chief Lothar about the use of daggers.

Paul didn't quite know how well Althea was studying, but three months ...... It will be difficult to defeat Nice, who has also made great progress in militia training.

Paul and Robin objected at the beginning, and even the "wooden-headed" Robin could see that in the past three months, the relationship between Althea and Malone has become closer and closer, and if they can, they certainly don't want Althea to get injured in the drill.

But on the contrary, Malone has been insisting on this competition, and Paul and Robin don't understand why at all, so they can only bite Nice's ear twice, telling this stupid boy not to hurt Althea for the sake of ability.

What's worse is that I don't know how the news spread, but now almost the entire town, including the toilet guards, has come around the square, waiting to see the excitement.

Paul's fear was that if Althea lost badly, she would be unhappy; If she is not happy, the chief of Lothar will be displeased; Once the chief of Lothar was not happy...... Isn't it still yourself who suffers?

……

Malone didn't have as many crooked ways as Paul, and he stood at the front of the crowd, stroking the top of Rubes' head and smiling at Althea, who looked back at him uneasily.

Althea has always wanted to go to war, and Marlon is well aware of this; But on the battlefield, anything can happen, and even Marlon can't guarantee that he will survive intact in this magical world.

In order to give Althea a glimpse of what real combat is all about, Malone decides to start with the town's militia - at least, in such a joust, Althea's opponents won't fight to the death.

Regardless of the victory or defeat, a win can give Althea confidence and lose...... It's better to dispel the thoughts in her heart as soon as possible.

Of course, Malone still hopes that Althea can win - and the reason for this starts with his relationship with Althea.

Unknowingly, in the past three months, despite not living together, the relationship between Marlon and Althea has grown by leaps and bounds.

Although the relationship has not yet been finally established, Malone feels that it will be sooner or later - after all, he and Althea have already passed the step of holding hands.

(ha...... Laughing, holding hands...... It's a little bit of a good thing, okay, but you're also the protagonist)

If Althea and Malone finally come to the point of talking about marriage, then both she and her father Elo Eberlock will be the biggest help for all of Marlon's next plans.

In such a situation, it is very advantageous for Malone to try to make Althea stronger, and finally to get her, Robin, Paul and others firmly in control of an army loyal to him.

As for the resistance of Althea to becoming the commander of the militia...... If she can defeat her once-"unbeatable" opponent in just three months, then every doubt will come to naught after that.

Of course, Malone didn't fail to notice Paul's small gestures - but it was just right, no matter what the outcome, at least he didn't have to worry about Althea being hurt by Nice.

……

"Miss Althea...... Why are you competing with me? ”

Ness asked with some confusion as he glanced at Althea, who was standing in front of him, two heads shorter than him.

"Because...... Because Marlon made me do it! ”

Althea glanced at Nesse's chain mail and shield larger than half her body, and replied in a somewhat apprehensive voice, reaching for the dagger pinned to her waist.

"Then I'll begin, Miss Althea. But don't worry, Chief Paul said, don't let me hurt you. ”

Ness nodded, and earnestly picked up his weapon and shield - Chief Paul said that he would not hurt Miss Althea, but he did not say that he would deliberately lose.

It was important to Nice - ostensibly it was only between him and Althea, but if he lost, it would be a disgrace not only for himself, but also for the five-member squad that Paul was training - including Nice and his four teammates.

"Hmmm! I'm going to get on! ”

Althea clasped the dagger in the palm of her left hand with her backhand, and raised her thin, sharp one-handed sword in her right hand.

"Come on!"

Ness tapped his one-handed sword against the shield, and the front of the Stormwind emblem - a relief bulge of a male lion replied loudly.

……

As time passed, Ness's face gradually showed a puzzled expression, as he found that although Althea on the other side shouted the slogan of attack, she had no intention of attacking him at all.

"Miss Althea, aren't you ready? Then we can wait a little longer and ......."

Although he was not a gentleman or a nobleman, Ness was also very polite, he put down the sword and shield in his hand, and said generously to Althea.

"It's now!"

At the moment when Nice's arm was loose and drooping, Althea suddenly snapped, raised the one-handed sword in her hand, and stabbed Nice in the chest.
