"Change the content of the exam?"

Glenn heaved himself up from the backrest and raised his head.

"Yes."

Rimmer knelt and nodded. Unclouded light radiated from his eyes for the first time since the fight against the Blood Raving Demon.

"Is the current graduation exam the instructor's recognition or a match between the trainees?"

"Yes, it is."

The trainees had to either pass the examination course the instructor made for them or have one-on-one matches between them to gain the instructor's acknowledgment in order to become a swordsman.

"Then what do you want it to be instead?"

"Survival."

Rimmer replied immediately.

"I want to send the trainees outside, without allowing them to use the Zieghart name.

"Send them outside?"

Glenn seemed interested as he leaned forward slightly.

"Yes. The fifth training ground's children have passed the trial of pressure, and they've achieved victory in the match of pride against the Owen kingdom's knight trainees. Neither of them was any different than a graduation exam."

"You used various means to achieve that."

"Indeed. However, some incidents were beyond my expectations. During the second mission, the trainees went through a fight of life and death and managed to pass a great hurdle."

Rimmer smiled. It was by pure coincidence that he had arrived there late, but the children had managed to achieve great growth both physically and mentally thanks to that.

"I want this test to be an opportunity for the children to grow, rather than just a graduation ceremony. Even if it ends up slowing them down on their path to become swordsmen, I want to create a foundation for them to reach a higher level."

"You are right. How they become swordsmen is more important than when."

Glenn closed his eyes in agreement.

"I'm glad you understand. With the way they are currently, the children need a new trial rather than an existing one."

Rimmer raised his long index finger.

"Surviving on their own without the house's power, the instructor's help, or the great Zieghart name will greatly help their growth."

"You've changed."

The corners of Glenn's mouth raised slightly, seeing Rimmer's confident gaze as he was knelt.

"Sorry?"

"You did say you would try raising the children, but you didn't look that interested in it before. You also did your preparations half-heartedly."

"Uh, hmm..."

Rimmer quickly avoided his eyes as his faults were found out.

"You started changing with the children after you met them. I don't think you realize how different your current expression is from before you met them."
