"What, here...?

What was ahead of Nick and the others was a completely different sight than before.

Unlike geometric floors and walls, it's a roomy, glossy hall of floors that runs everywhere.

On the other floor, the golem is about to strike, but there's no sign of that.

And there was something in the center of the room.

"Is that a sword pattern...?

"I have no body, Zo. Heh."

On the platform, only the pattern of the sword was placed.

He was resting on a decorated platform as if it were complete with it, even though he had no body.

"... Could this not be the Devil's Sword?

"Even if I say Demon Sword, I can't get it without a blade"

"Some demon swords take the magic of their users into the shape of blades. This could be that type, too."

"Oh, I see"

Nick nods at Tiana's story and approaches it carefully.

"You don't seem to have a trap... Even so, I don't know what this means. I wouldn't be able to untie the place."

"Nick, are you taking that home?

"If nothing happens. Tiana, do you have any weird magic?

"You don't feel that at the moment... from that sword and around you"

"Okay."

Nick cautiously took a sword pattern over the cloth to avoid touching it with his bare hands.

"Oh, hey, why don't you at least grasp the pattern properly"

A strange voice reached Nick's ear.

It was a voice I didn't even know if it was a man or a woman, a young man or an old man.

"... what is it now? Anybody say anything?

"Nick! Be careful! The Devil's Sword has been activated!

"This is him!?

Nick quickly let go and distance himself.

A sword pattern fell on the floor after making a teasing noise.

Each of the four men holds his own weapon and prepares for the anomaly...... but

'Don't drop it! Who do you think I am, young men?

"I don't know!... Oh, no, maybe... you're the [sword of bondage]?

When Nick asked, the sword responded with a voice so great that he seemed to hear a snort called Phew.

'Bye. I am the greatest masterpiece of the Terrane Magic Guidance Factory and the Angel-class Spiritual Soldier Costume "Sword of Bond". It's not for the unqualified to touch it. "

"Then you can't touch it with your bare hands. I'll carry it so it doesn't get hurt properly, so make it grow up."

Nick takes the cloth out of his back sac and starts getting ready to pack.

But then Zem and Karan said, staring at the sword of bond with disgusting eyes.

"Uh, Mr. Nick, the sword is talking... because I'm not surprised?

"Oh, yeah, Zo. Disgusting Zo."

"I didn't know it was disgusting!

"Oh, angry ta!

"Well, relax. Both of you. Once upon a time, my master told me. A talking sword is real."

To Nick's words, Zem and Karan look eh.

"Do you have...?

"Oh. They classify it as an intelligence sword. Maybe you could call it a golem of swords."

"That's right. I'm talking about exotics, but some swords have been awarded titles for their achievements in the war."

"We both know things, Na..."

Karan looked at the sword and Nick's faces with a distracted face.

"Well, anyway"

Nick hung up his words and stared at the sword of bond.

"Intelligence swords are fine. There's no cursed item here."

"Why da?

"In ancient civilization, they had all sorts of constraints when making tools with intelligence and soul. You don't think you should defy the owner, or impart delusion or brainwashing magic? So you don't have to be too wary."

To Nick's explanation, the sword of bondage laughed confidently.

"Exactly. I don't have trouble being made with a lower bitch witchcraft that confuses people. I'm only proud of those who value justice and friendship, aren't I? It's an honor to hold me, but good."

"Heck, then, Holy Sword Sama, I'll take care of it, so take care of yourself."

"Lucky me... I'm a swordsman. Because of this, you have a holy sword like mine. You don't think I want to gear up?

"No, I specialize in daggers. A swordsman or a light warrior."

"So... the dragon man's daughter there is the swordsman?

"The eagle is not going to hold anything but this dragonbone sword, Zo"

"Then..."

The sword of bond turns its attention to Zem and Tiana.

But they both shook their heads sideways.

'... Then you didn't come here looking for me?

The sword of bond asked Nick and the others a lot.

"No, you're the one who's after me."

"Then I'd be more unhappy, bored. You don't want to touch my majesty?

"No, nothing..."

'... then what are you going to do with me?... I don't think so.'

"Oh, well, naturally..."

Nick looked over at the faces of the three of his companions.

Everyone is not a particularly objectionable face.

"" "" "Sell, though?

I'm confused.
