Reborn as the Hero’s Daughter! Time to Become the Hero Once More! Chapter 59

The following day, class began in earnest.

According to our schedule, the first class was ant to train basic physical fitness.

We changed into athletic clothes in class and gathered on the playground, it was then that we beca self-conscious for the first ti.

The playground is shared with the Adventurers School, so you can see their students on the other side of the square.

Cortina ca out and started warm-ups with a whistle in her mouth.

Letina and I started doing calisthenics alongside each other.

Whoa, Nicole youre so limber.

Yeah, I want to stand on the front lines.

The vanguard? You dont want to be a mage?

Right. I want to be a Magic Swordsman.

Thats a lofty goal, isnt it.

A Magic Swordsman has to be proficient with both magic and swordsmanship. Otherwise, both skills will be half-baked. I experienced in the past what happens when parties beco unbalanced because of inferior skills.

Yup, but Ill do my best.

I wont fall behind either.

Hey now, you there. Dont hurt yourselves while youre busy talking.

Cortina seems more gleeful than when she was at ho despite sounding heartless.

That reminds , she really enjoyed herself playing with the kids at the orphanage. anwhile, I just got played by the kids.

Well then, next, do three laps around

Whaaa!?

Teach, youre a monster!

The students started raising complaints one after the other, but it was pointless. Three laps around the large playground would be well over a kiloter.

For younglings, its a tad extre for an exercise.

Its fine, this is to asure your physical fitness. Besides, this class is about physical fitness, isnt it? No pain no gain.

Demooon!

Deviiil

Sorry but Im a cat lol! Now, get going!

Ugggh!

The students started running while screaming. and Letina started running along with them.

But anyway, I was training my body almost every day in the village. Like Id lose out to so flimsy mage children.

Yeah, there was a ti I actually believed that.

Zehiuu, hahiiuu

Hold on, it hasnt even been half a lap. Are you ok Nicole?

Im, fu, faiiin

But no matter how I look at it, you dont look fine

I was following the other students closely for the first hundred ters, but by the two hundred ter mark I had stalled out.

During the battle against the kidnappers, I held out longer. Apparently, exercise that consus stamina constantly is my natural enemy.

During that ti, I managed to fight while repeatedly holding my breath and movent when possible, but in a marathon Im forced to keep burning my energy.

That being said, since I have scant physical strength I cant keep moving for a long ti.

Even so. Isnt this a bit too fast?

With this youre aiming to be a Magic Swordsman

I, Im, fa, fine. Its still my body, can keep oof

Wa, Wait! Teacher over here! Nicole gives! Imdiately! We need a dic asap!?

I just barely managed to gulp a sparkly liquid threatening to rise from the pit of my stomach back down.

As youd expect, it was a matter of my dignity as a human being.

However, the exertion robbed of my last remaining bits of stamina, making lose all hope of accomplishing this impossible task.

Ah, this

Whoa whoa, wait, Nicole!

Letina did her best to support , but we were still little kids so we fell onto the ground in a tangled ss and I lost consciousness.

When I next ca to, I was lying in the infirmary.

Looking around , I saw a shelf with a great deal of potions and could sll the faint odor of alcohol used as disinfectant.

Sitting in front of a desk installed by the window was a woman in a white robe.

Oh, youre up?

mmph, Thank you. Im sorry for the trouble.

While I appreciate the polite thanks honestly, I never wouldve imagined a student collapsing in the first class of the day.

Im very sorry.

Most likely shes a health instructor. She ca up to and took my wrist to check my pulse.

Hmm Its a bit fast. Is it always like that?

Yes. Its a bit fast normally.

Is that so. You should probably keep working out.

My pulse is a bit faster than most kids my age, and currently, my body temperature is a bit high.

Dr. Tricias cool hands feel nice to the touch.

But honestly, that Cortina, I swear. Pushing a student to the point of collapse, how unreasonable can you get.

This is my bodys fault for being so frail. Its impossible to instantly grasp everyones physical limits.

You know so complicated words. Well, I guess its fine this ti.

True she shouldnt be able to grasp the other students limits instantly, but given weve been living together, its strange for her to overlook my condition.

Such a thing never happened last ti.

Hm Whys that?

Well, thanks to her I got to look at your cute sleeping face.

Mmmm.

As a forr man, I have so reservations about being called cute by a beauty in the pri of her youth.

But well, I guess Im pretty used to it after hearing Lyell and Maria tell so often.

Next, she opened my gym clothes to examine my chest with her stethoscope.

The cold tal felt pleasant on my overheated body.

Your breathing seems normal at least.

Yep. Never had any problems there.

Do you normally have fainting spells like this by chance?

All the ti.

Since I was an infant who couldnt get out of bed, Id work on manipulating magic until I passed out.

Of course, I never succeeded, but Id still fall asleep each night with ntal fatigue, so in that sense, fainting is nothing new to .

Sohow, isnt that an impossible way to live?

I have a goal in mind.

Ill beco a Magic Swordsman. I wont beco an assassin, Ill gain my fa as a hero.

To beco a hero without the qualities of one, that was the sort of thing I was going for.

While chatting with the doctor like this, the door to the infirmary was suddenly opened.

Oh, Youre up? I was so worried!

Are you awake Nicole?

The ones intruding with noisy footsteps and questions were Cortina and Letina.

Seeing sitting up in the middle of an examination made the two of them let out a sigh of relief.

Forgive , youre always keeping up on your condition, so I thought it was fine, then suddenly you collapsed!

Cortina made a misjudgnt?

Yeah. I never expected you to get worn out so suddenly like that.

Hearing Cortinas explanation made realize my weakness.

Thats no excuse. However, this fragility is a bit unusual. I suppose wed better do a thorough examination at least once just to make sure.

Ive been thinking there was sothing wrong for the longest ti.

When I fought the kobold, fatigue kicked in suddenly and caused to slip.

Then again during the kidnapping incident, I started to get tired quickly right after Michelle showed up.

Looking at it objectively, things dont really add up.

Id always attributed my weakness due to my stunted growth, but could there be so underlying condition inside my body causing to be like this.
