Oh - no. No, nothing like that, not like Hulkenberg. [ she's a true knight. ] Just... a swordsman, I suppose. A warrior. More like a bodyguard, really....

-- Anyway. Yes, I do exercise quite a bit, with her and without - she's got me on a bloody brutal training regimen, but it's been good for me. And you and Nanase...you're...professional athletes? Is that right?
Can't be both? [ that makes him laugh, actually.... he looks pleased to be recognized as a noble, and is happy to explain. ] Knighthood's a bit different - a bit higher of a title. Someone like Hulkenberg swore her life long, long ago to protect his highness, and has trained since she was young for just that. Though I've long sworn my loyalty to the prince, it is because we are comrades in arms, not because I'm a knight.
It's the difference between a professional athlete and a recreational athlete, recreational athletes can still compete and be serious, but it's not a permanent contract. I get it.

Yeah, we are. [ Strohl... You are so bashful. ] You're someone's body guard? I thought you were a noble?
