A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

Episode 533: The Great Problem Part 5

Reacting to the voices of the Dragon Slasher, Sofia looked around and finally turned to Reurus.

"Suddenly you call me with a" thought call "... how can you lie with a" thought call "? Whose voice is that? Master Neddy... it's not like that. You don't seem to talk to me in the first place."

"... Neddy, I don't want to talk to you."

"As a spiritual teacher, thank you for saying something that is going to break my heart... So, who is it?

Sofia looks suspicious, but she realizes that she is being looked at by Natalia.

"What's with those eyes, Natalia-san... 'This kid suddenly said something weird, but are you okay? It feels like air."

"Don't worry, I don't think so... I'm a little worried about you hearing voices that I can't hear."

"... did Natalia-san hear you? Natalia has a good ear?

Sophia looks suspicious when she asks if she's going to take on me.

I'm in trouble. I don't know. "

"... I heard you even now, Natalia-san, are you sure you can't hear me? I don't even have a tongue to call you Reurus' name, and maybe you're calling me weird... or maybe I'll be slightly hurt if you don't call me Reurus there..."

"I feel like I've just suffered a terrible reputational damage."

Reurus inadvertently puts in a comic book, but we can't just leave things behind. Therefore, while wondering what the explanation was, I gently lifted the "Dragon Slash".

"It was this sword that I was talking about... and I started talking about it from before."

"I can't wait to be told that the baby in my house started talking recently."

It was Sofia who raised her eyebrows in real trouble, but she looked at the "Dragon Slash" and asked Reurus.

"Hey... can I use your eyes for a second? I have a rather unpleasant feeling..."

"... I don't mind."

Even as a realuse, I wanted some information about the “something” that lived in the Dragon Slash. So when she nodded back, Sofia concentrated her magic on her eyes. And after a few seconds to make his eyes shine red, he began to watch Dragon Slash carefully from the tip to the handle.

"You're lying... eh? Why is this stuff...?"

Then, he muttered with a dazed look. Reurus glanced at Sofia's reaction unexpectedly.

"I'm curious... what's wrong with this sword?

"What's wrong with you... what is this sword made of? How is it made?"

Sophia and the others wonder about the trouble, but Reurus answers, thinking it was to get information.

"Fangs, nails, and scales from an advanced monster I know... and then the iron that the dwarf smelted. I'm not familiar with the method... Meer?

It was a Reurus that explained without mentioning Vaniel's name, but I threw a conversation to Meer on the way.

"It's going to be a long time to explain it in detail... for now, Reurus, the ingredients you said were forged by the most skilled blacksmith I know, using Sarah's flame and Neddy's water... I shaken a few times along the way, but can you say Dad made it?

That's what I'm proud to say, Meer. As a dwarf, I couldn't help but be glad to be able to do well with what I was involved in the production.

"This child is definitely a dwarf... I see, depending on how many“ advanced monsters ”exist... so as far as the“ magic color ”is concerned, the flame magic... this quality is also... Fire Dragon? Huh?

Sophia, who listened while looking at Meer, murmured again as she turned back to the Dragon Slash. However, as I noticed something along the way, I turned to Meer again.

…………

"Huh, what? I'm embarrassed to see you so still....."

Meer stared at her with her red and shiny eyes, shrinking her shoulders uncomfortably. Sophia even peeked inside, feeling "disgusted”, thinking it might be because of her mind.

"Dwarf... dwarf? No, but is this... like this when you've seen it before... perverted?

"Mr. Sofia? I can't keep my mouth shut if you tell me something that bothers me."

Watch Dragon Slash, see Meer, and watch Dragon Slash again.

Sophia's eyes blinked as if she had turned to me when Reurus called out, feeling an anomaly in Sophia's gaze wandering around. Then he drank the green tea that had been brewed by the corona all at once and exhaled a huge sigh.

"... let me conclude first. Your sword is full of spirits... And your dwarf... was it" Dear Meer ”? Dear Spirit... there are signs of approaching."

"Am I... close to the Spirit?

According to Sofia, Meer leans her neck in a confused manner.

"Yeah... I was definitely a dwarf when I saw it before. That's the middle between the dwarf and the Spirit... no, it's slightly transformed into a spiritual neighborhood. Has anything changed recently? More magic, more magic that I couldn't use before...."

"Even if they say something unusual...."

Meanwhile, Meer sent a message to Reurus. After receiving it, Reurus nods back and opens his mouth.

"When you signed the contract with me, you did.”

…………

Sofia is completely silent, twisting her neck like a rusty robot and watching a revulsion.

"Did you make a contract? Are you really human? I mean, did you just say something about reputational damage? Whatever you think, you're weird and weird. Apologize."

"Hah... I'm sorry."

Sofia breathes deeply again and again when Reurus apologizes honestly.

"... excuse me, I'm disturbed. I'm sorry."

"No, that's fine... are you sure you're okay?

Sophia pulls her cheeks when she asks Reurus to take care of her.

"This happened because of you and your surroundings... yeah, that's fine. Leave it. What we need now is" what will we do in the future "... what will we do..."

It is Sofia who murmurs in a really troubled way, but the reason for the magnitude of Sofia's reaction as a revulsion is not clear. Sofia leaned down, murmuring words without feeling the connection with the bumps, and thought for a few minutes, but eventually raised her face as if she had made up her mind.

"First of all, it's your sword, but the spirit... it's a little red, but there's something close to“ colorless ”. Not the Spirit of Fire like Sara-sama... but the Spirit of the Sword."

"The Spirit of the Sword... I've never heard of it. Ah, but somewhere the Spirit turned into a sword with" Change "...."

Reurus leans his neck and Jito's eyes fly out of Sofia.

"I've heard rumors that those who draw the blood of the Wind Spirit turned into weapons with 'Change', but this is completely different. Honestly, I hardly know what I can do or what I can't do."

"Do you know anything about most of this?

It may be a fried leg, but Reurus asks while thinking about it. Sofia then turned to "Dragon Slash" and replied while making a hole between her eyebrows.

"This sword, perhaps, could reach the 'God' to which the Gregorians are attached. Materials, craftsmanship, and the power of those who wave it... Ah, you know God, don't you? I saw the damage report on the incident at Baron Barberie's, but didn't it look like that?

"I know... but so does Sophia."

It was a revulsion that jumped one eyebrow to the word "god" that came out of Sofia's mouth, but Sofia said with a bitter smile.

"As far as I'm concerned... the upper echelons of the country are concerned, even in Mataroi. Leaders of the kingdom, such as His Majesty the King and the minister, and others who, like me, are searching for Gregorianism... have actually confronted it."

"If you knew about this, I think it would be a little better for you to treat Gregorianism in this country... no, that wouldn't be too much trouble."

Eliza, who had heard Sofia's story, had a question, but her expression distorted as if she had arrived at the solution quickly by herself.

"Basically, I don't know when or where it will appear, and it's not something that appears frequently. Even if you accept the Gregorians and have them net in Mataroi, it is more dangerous than monsters because they are the only ones with a territory...."

Sofia shook her neck once she had spoken so far, and she reversed the shifted story.

"That's why there are spirits in that sword. And as for you, Mr. Mear... do you have any influence on your" contract "with Mr. Reurus? Magic... I think it's earth magic, but isn't it ready to be used? The color of magic is changing....."

"... you can now use earth magic. But I heard that some dwarves can use earth magic."

"As far as magic is concerned, you couldn't use it before, right? If my magic had deteriorated in such a short period of time, I'd know something was going on... ah, my eyes are getting really tired..."

When Sofia said that and restored her red and shiny eyes to normal, she swallowed the green tea that Corona had brewed again all at once, turning her gaze towards Reurus.

"... I didn't want to stop the court from moving things, but I changed my mind. Mr. Reurus, did we talk about defeating the dragon? It's a lie to run you over to the Gregorians."

And Reurus starts telling information surprisingly suddenly.
