Tyler was a genius with the sword.
If it was just sword skills, he would definitely be stronger than me.
Tyler was an orphan.
He doesn't know his parents
Imperial soldiers found young Tyler on the roots of a partially rotten tree.
There were two corpses hanging from that tree, so rotten that it was impossible to determine their gender.
They were never identified.
The Holy Kingdom could not afford to accept Tyler, who was found near the corpses.
So he ended up growing up in an orphanage run by the empire.
There, he met Andarte, who was the oldest and leader of the orphans at the time.
Every time I went to check on the orphanage, Andarte would play a trick on me.
Every time, every time, every time, I gave him a sermon.
Andarte must have been lonely.
Tyler was always by Andarte's side.
When Andarte turned 15, he became a knight cadet.
He was so proud to be a knight.
I should have noticed at that time
That there is hatred in those eyes
---------------------------------------
Andarte hated his parents.
For abandoning him.
He had no choice.
If he continued to live as an orphan, that hatred would fade someday.
I was naive, that's all I can say.
I can't speak for others
Andarte's parents acted foolishly.
When they found out that one of the knight cadets was the son they'd abandoned, they came to me.
They wanted to get back together.
If Andarte became a temple knight, he would have the highest rank in the empire.
Did they think they could live a life of leisure?
Did they think they could get rid of their huge debt?
Did they think they didn't have to have children over and over again to sell?
I refused because I knew they were such horrible parents.
I have no intention of introducing parasites into the Empire.
The empire doesn't care how problematic the parents are, as long as they are good and talented themselves.
But then his parents started screaming in the Holy Kingdom.
Screaming that their child will become an elite
They started playing around using Andarte's name.
I don't know where Andarte reached his limit.
And Andarte killed his parents on the night of the new moon.
I was convinced that it was Andarte's work because of the cuts and the way his parents were killed.
Andarte died in front of his parents.
There was a child at the tip of the blade, and if it had shifted just a little more, the child would have died.
And it was speculated that it was Tyler who took Andarte's life.

"Andarte is..."
"I think he held a grudge."
Alex continues
"But, more than anything, he may have thought that he didn't want to troubled the Commander. If my father and mother did any more unnecessary things, they would become a nuisance."
"I didn't intend any of that..."
He's like my own child.
I would have defended him at all costs.
"You don't know where Tyler is?"
"He stole a ship. That's all I know."
Since then, no trace has been found
He sank into the sea. It would be reasonable to think that
"What happened to my parents' debt?"
"The person who lent money to them is also a criminal. He was found by the Holy Kingdom and is said to have died."
I remember him being a terrible villain.
Human trafficking, profiteering, theft, rape
It made my blood boil that a young child who hadn't yet had her first menstruation was forced into prostitution.
"Well... that's about all I know."
"Thank you very much"
Alex bows deeply.
"What would you do if you met Tyler?"
"I want to know the truth."
"Don't you have any grudges?"
"I don't feel that way."
His expression is good.
"But I was surprised to hear it sooner than I expected."
"You're the Commander's assistant. You're already a knight, I promised, right?"
"Yes, which is why I'm somewhat disappointed."
"What?"
"If I don’t become the top, I won’t be able to receive a unique sword from Lute-sama, right?"
"Well, basically."
"It's a pity."
Oya, oya
Isn't this a chance for a little surprise?
