1703 Episode 1689: Alice's Afternoon and Takeo's Reflections. (How children and soldiers grow up.

Garden of the Berte family's mansion.

"Mm-hmm... vegetables are going well, aren't they?

Alice is nodding when she hears about the work from Bona.

"Yes, it's going well.

High-performance fertilizers grow better vegetables.

It's just... cucumbers are getting too big for this time of year, so if you grow up like this, the opposite is going to happen.

Tomatoes grow better, too, but you haven't come to fruition yet.

"Hmm, the potatoes were... in the dirt, weren't they?

"Yes, potatoes will grow big because of the good growth of other vegetables, but it's difficult because you won't know until you dig them up.

"Potatoes also had varietal improvements, right?

"Yes, that's a multiplication, so... I hope it goes well.

That's what happens by putting in different varieties alternately in the back fields that are distant from the fields that use high performance fertilizers.

"It's natural, boulder farmer, not to be an amateur, but you're secure and reassuring.

What about rice?

"Yesterday, I am finished sowing to the intended extent.

Please wait as this is a pruning around October.

"October. ♪

Since wheat is cut around July, it would be nice to hear from the governor (us) that it is cut twice a year.

Alice says happily.

"Dear Alice! The grass gathering we did under the guidance of the Donatos is over!

Serene comes under Alice and reports.

"Yes, thank you.

It was an agricultural experience today, but it would have been tough, wouldn't it?

"Yes! It's hard to make vegetables.

"That's right.

That's why you shouldn't make food crude.

Well, Mr. Bona, let's make it tea.

Are those kids okay?

"Yes, we are ready, and we have no problem with Alice because she brings us sweets.

"Please.

Serene, bring in the Rufinas and Mr. Donato.

Let's make it tea.

"Yes! I get it!

Serene goes for a small run into the field.

"... good boy.

Alice squeaks as she sees Serene behind her back.

"Hehe, you're a serious and dear child.

Bona tells me as she lines up her tea set at her desk.

"Mm-hmm... right, you're a serious kid.

Affirms as Alice tilts her neck.

"My Nilde and Jilda are more energetic.

I don't flirt, but I'm energetic and excessive.

When you're done farming, you're running around the property till dinner, right?

I think you could do some more studying... but I don't know what will happen in the future.

"Mm-hmm... that would be a difficult response because I used to be.

Ma, don't you think I can handle this because I can do this?

"Oh? Has this been rude to Master Alice?

"No, Master Takeo tells me it's a good thing he's healthy too.

I think both Nilde and Jilda need to play when they can.

In that sense, my kids need to let them play up to some degree.

... I could take you outside as an agricultural experience this time, but not every time...

It's still early outside the castle gate.

You don't have much ahead of you to take those kids in peace, do you?

Alice says as she thinks.

"Mm-hmm... so are we, but there's only enough distraction to take you shopping on the front and back streets and teach you some off-work fun.

"Right.

Is that how you'll keep an eye on it for the time being?

"Yes, I think that's okay.

Oh, you're back.

Bona and Alice greeted everyone.

------------------------

Wang Du Defense Corps training ground.

Takeo and his spiritually recovered Thea, Ettre and Fabio are having tea.

"So... why is it the same?

You must have been experiencing it when I bought the sword that you all wielded from the upper and middle stages, using a shield.

"" "There's nothing else!

"... no... because... you knew I was going to drain my sword and slash it into my empty torso, right?

Because I used the same structure as before.

"I know that with my own hands.

Thea says.

"You're not waving my sword faster, are you?

Why don't you do something different?

"Dear Kitamizato, if we do something different, we'll deal with it, right?

"It's obvious.

Because I don't like pain either.

Takeo says seriously.

"Mmm... that's why I tried to compete with speed.

That way you can punch in without being dealt with... "

Thea swells.

"Thea is right.

Dear Kitamizato, the reception is too beautiful.

I managed to clutter Lord Kitamizato's reception with the speed and timing of swinging the sword.

Yet... "

Says Ettle in a shudder.

"Huh? Is it too pretty?

Takeo listens back.

"Yes, I feel extremely little when I hit it... I hardly feel it.

I can't connect that to two strikes using recoil or a punch from a different direction.

"I can't handle that one.

Master Kitamizato is the only one who gets that.

It's like I took it more, no matter how good they say it is... there's a feeling (...) that the sword hit me.

I can't believe it's not there. How long should I slack the timing?

Ettle and Fabio say.

"... wait a minute... I didn't take it, did I?

Takeo says.

"" "Huh?

3 people surprised.

"This is how you say you can take it, right?

Takeo descends his right hand in the form of a handknife and takes it with his left hand.

"I'm just putting my hands on it to the extreme.

Takeo explains as he waves the knife of his current right hand and pushes it from the side with his left hand.

"You're guessing from the side, aren't you?

"Are you guessing?... I think it's more accurate that you're changing direction along your hand?

Yeah?... haven't you passed it on?

Takeo worries.

"" "I have no idea!

Three people come protesting.

"So here comes the sword, right?

Put your hands together like this. "

Takeo explained to the three of them what Takeo was doing.
