Chapter 56 – Emma’s Bubbling Feelings and Robert’s Sword Training

Third person POV

  Later at noon, the horse wagon stopped aside to eat a quick lunch and take a short break near a river. Their lunch was pretty simple, with bread and cheese being the main course. But, they do have some meat, but they have to eat it before they went spoiled.

After lunch, they rest up under a tree, before Robert would do his first lessons in sword training under Masanori at the nearby fields. His lessons are the basics in movement and poses. Masanori gives his feedback to his try-outs as always, causing Robert's sword skills to improve slightly little by little.

Peter, William, Colt, and the driver are asleep with their weapons, except that William only had a few daggers.

As Robert kept on training with his katana, Emma was watching this from the distance, looking very upset like a tsundere.

"Man, he's so cool," she thought in her mind, "but he's so two-faced. Why is he like that? I do like him, but I don't like him because he's so two-faced. He's brutal and cold on one hand, but soft and weak-minded on the other."

Her feelings for Robert really bubbled up like boiling water, but at the same time, she hates him for being a two-faced person. But, how long her feelings will bubble up?

By 1 in the afternoon, Peter, William, and Colt woke up, and they, Robert, Masanori, and Emma packed up, went back to their horse wagon, and continued their journey towards Vanworth.
