Talks on the edge of secret place of two
Preface
I have been studying English for decade. Thanks to long-term practice, I can read it a little bit,but there are a lot of rooms to improve. Especially,I am really bad at writing. To tackle to this issue, I come to reach a good idea.
To write a short-story.
It may be a reckless idea, but I'll do my best to complete my story.
undoubtedly, It'll contain many grammatical mistakes.You may laugh at my uselessness.
I'll be happy if you are interested in my story.
It is story of young Priestess and
Knight.
Chapter 1
〜Talks on the secret place〜
On the evening of the graduation ceremony, Knight sat at the edge of sea cliff with Priestess who made her mind to search her father. It was the secret place of the two where can be seen beautiful landscape.The contrast of blue ocean, oranged sky and purely white cloud was enchanting.The two sat together in the companionable silence,watching the sun descending into the sea.
"After all,we will graduate here" Priestess said nostalgically."And then we have to decide own way to go."
"……"
Knight kept silent.
"It was a great time to spend." the girl said cheerfully."Don't you think there are many,many memorable things here? "
"......" the silent was his answer.
"Hey!,Did you hear me!"
"I never stop to think you are talking with me, "Wasnt it your-self-mumbling?"
"Don't say like an idot!" Priestess sighed."You, always keep your own tempo as ever...."
Knight scratched his head and knocked back his body sullenly.
"Why did you get me walking?" "You can do it by yourself if you want" Silent boy emitted great yawn out of his mouth.
"You are always something like that....It is so spoiling a wonderful atmosphere.
She looked away and made her cheek swelling.
It was still bright and serene in the edge of the sea. Occasionally, sound of wave that crushed on the rocks,singing seagulls, typic ghastly winds in the seaside were breaking its tranquility.
" What are you going to do,you know?"Priestess asked awkwardly.
" I can't understandand your intention" Knight slightly frowned.
"Future! Im a little carious about your
after-graduation.you served as a knight-squire right? so I think you want to be a knight leader in this country or something like that?......"
"......Who knows? I'll pave my way Whatever I want to." Knight answered his usual tone.
"It's wildly off the mark"
she smiled bitterly.
"how about your perspective of your future?"
He asked somewhat retorting stance.
"...,...,"
she got muted for some minutes.
"It's worse than my reply"
" Hold on!, I just don't know where to start my idea.I'd already made my mind"
"Huh?"
"I'll start journey to search my father"
" Are you serious?"
" I'm serious, of course."
Quiet answer. but It contained a steady and succinct determination in her voice.
" I want to reveal true fact..."
Silent visited between the two.
"I can't understand What you think. you experience SUCH a thing, and you also care about your father?
He continued with his calm tone.
" If I were......"
" No more!"
The wind completely halted.
Heavy silent drifted around them.
"Don't say it more, please"
She said weakly as if she lost all her cheerfulness.
"Sorry"
"It's OK. It's me who have to say sorry.... "
"Aren't you baffled my loud voice...?"
" This is what you always are."
He said neatly
" Dont be silly!"
She moved front to her friend with putting her fist on her waist. She swelled her cheek and turned opposite direction.

"How do you start journey alone?"
"Umm,... I'll go north area... and then start searching around It..."
"sigh..." The boy dropped his head and
scratched his head.
"Why are you so slacking!, Are there any points to laugh at ? "
"......,did you calculate how many costs will you spend on journey ? "
" eh?, uuhm "
Priests tilted her neck innocently.
"How do you get over if you are raid by plunderers ?
"Of course, you already consider to tackle those risks and have a counter-solution to hedge. Right? "
"...,..., hahaha."
She produced a fake smile to hide her poor planning for her journey.
"To sum up, you don't think carefully about your own way or safety......."
Knight emitted deep breathe as if he gave up talking more details.
" Hahaha, that's right. "
"I addmit your adamant decision and your magic skills as a priests, but you are..., so, bad at thinking deeply..."
"It'll be helpful if you have a someone to support your thought-less head. "
"Umm ? "
This time, she inclined her head again.
" Hush..."
He clicked his tongue.
" I said I'll go with you, please don't ignore my intention."
" Are you sure ? "
she was astonished what he'd said
" I don't know... how I express my gratitude for you. Why are you so honest to me? "
" Like I said before, I'm doing as I like it. If you think it is charity or my mercy on you, that is big mistake . "
Priestess felt warm as she heard his usual sentences.
" Please let me tell you again. Thanks for your straightforwardness for me. "
She showed her white smile toward to him.
" hush..."
Knight ignored her speech and turned his face opposite to her.
" Did you remember...... when we met at first time? "
Priestess opened her mouth to start a past story.
