Episode 2- Lady Gwyn Is Training The Knights?!

'If I hadn't told the knights to not pay attention to me, they probably wouldn't be able to focus. They seemed really excited to meet me for some reason!' I thought that with relief. I wasn't a very social person. Mind the fact that I had never been involved in the social world of aristocrats, nor even had my Debutante!

They were sparring one-on-one. Their skills were pretty impressive. Although there were a lot of flaws.

"Hey, Dominick! What's their names?" I pointed to only a couple on knights.

"That's Elijah, Stephan, Dez, Link, and Addison." Dominick said pointing to each one.

Ok. Thanks!" I replied back.

"ELIJAH! TURN YOUR LEFT FOOT 45 DEGREES! STEPHAN! HOLD YOUR SWORD PROPERLY! PRACTICE AS IF YOU"RE REALLY IN A WAR! DEZ! AT LEAST TRY TO BEAT YOUR OPPONENT! LINK!! WHEN HE RAISES HIS SWORD UP TO SWING, HIT UNDER! DON'T TRY TO BLOCK!! AND ADDISON! Come here." I yelled out to them. I think they were surprised.

Addison cam over and I whispered into her ear. "You should bind your chest better." I could see her face. She was shocked I knew. I continued "I don't think they allow girls here yet. I believe that they are still trying to make a law where girls can be knights. Do you need me to teach you how to do it tighter? You're wearing a corset type, right? Would you like me to help you tighten it?"

She was still shocked but she responded. "Y-you knew? W-w-would you help me? I don't want to get kicked out! I owe my life! Like most of the others here!"

I grabbed her hand and took her inside after telling the knights we'd be back. We went to my room. Dominick followed us inside.

"Ah, Ah. No, Dominick. Please wait outside. I don't think you wanna be in here." Dominick left after I said that.

I helped Addison tighten her corset. It took awhile, but we got it to the right tightness. She was very thankful. I opened the door and Dominick looked anxious.

"Are you alright, Dominick?" I asked him.

"Do you l-like Sir Addison?" He blushed and looked away while talking.

"No! Of course not! Secret, I was helping her tighten her corset type binder." I whispered to him.

"Her?! Addisons a girl?!" He looked even more shocked than Addison did when I told her I knew she was a girl.

"Now, Let's go back to the training area!"

When we got back Bruce was sitting on the bench we had sitten on. That's when it struck me! Bruce is in charge of training the knights! He saw me giving pointers to the knights! A normal Lady wouldn't know that!! What is he going to ask?

"Where did you learn all that knowledge about fighting?" Bruce asked

"Addison, you're excused to go back to training." I told her trying to avoid Bruce's question.

"Yes, My Lady." She responded and went back to training.

He said it again "Where did you learn all that knowledge about fighting?"

My head was starting to hurt. Memories of staying at the Furas estate came into my mind.

My eyes closed as I heard "LADY GWYN!!"

I saw memories of learning how to wield a sword, fighting, seeing comrades die, getting wounded, and them laughing at my scars.

I was screaming at my memories "STOP! STOP! I DON'T WANT TO!! NO! IT HURTS!!! STOP LAUGHING!! I don't want to."

My eyes opened. Everyone was staring at me the Duke, the Duchess, Bruce, Delias, Atlas, Zane, Ezekiel, Vara, Addison, a doctor, and Dominick. They all looked super worried.

"What's wrong? You all look super worried." I asked not knowing what was going on.

"What's wrong?! Gwyn, You fainted! Luckily, Dominick was right next to you, so he caught you. You've been asleep for five days! You were just screaming in your sleep!! What happened?!" The Duchess quickly explained.

"Oh, Was I? I didn't realize that. Sorry."
