I Was a Sword When I Reincarnated (WN)

It was Fran who cried quietly in the house of memory, but after a while it seems to have calmed down.

Are you okay?

"Nh. Thank you."

When I rubbed my eyes, I began to look around the house.

Was it destroyed by the Resistance? Or maybe after that, they were roughed up by bandits. There were no dishes or decorations, and no decent artifacts left.

But Fran remembered something. As he approached the corner of the room, he began to cut the grass apart and dig the dirt under the former floor.

Don't worry about getting your hands dirty, keep digging for a dozen seconds. Fran picks something up from the dirt.

"This...."

Mug...?

"Nh, the cup I got for my birthday."

A mug that was once white and split in half in the middle. Now it is covered with dirt, but when I wash it with water magic, my white scalp becomes exposed. I also saw a small black swirl-like pattern inside.

It seems that it was a gift from my parents on my fifth birthday.

Fran said he liked this mug when he was a kid and he drank everything from water to tea.

One day, however, it splits carelessly. Fearing anger, Fran removed the floorboard and buried it in the dirt to hide it.

Thanks to that, this is all that was left of us.

Should I fix it somewhere? If it's that much, it'll stick together.

Really?

Ah

"Nh! I'll fix it! I'll fix anything!

You finally laughed. After all, the sadness doesn't suit Fran.

"Next, find the tomb."

"Amanda said she made a grave."

Nh!

You said that the tomb was built in the corner of the original communal cemetery.

Which cemetery is it?

"... that way"

It seems to have revived the memory of being completely in the village. Walk out of your way.

He must have blown something out.

It wasn't a misguided expression like when I stepped into the castle.

"There, the tomb."

When asked, it seems that the wreckage of the decaying wooden fence peers into the grass and separates the village from the square beyond.

The cemetery certainly existed further afield, dividing the sea of grass.

But isn't that strange?

"Why isn't there only grass here?

"Somebody grass it?

No, that's why......

Wait. Just because people don't live here doesn't mean nobody's coming. So is it conceivable that the former inhabitants came to the grass regularly?

Maybe he wanted to clean the cemetery at least.

Well, it's easy to find graves now, isn't it?

"Nh"

Walk around the cemetery, convinced. It still seemed like someone was taking care of it.

It's not just grass. The gravestone was also cleaned. Instead of moss, it's even slightly dirty.

It looks like you've cleaned up in the last few days. If we look for any villages or towns around here, we may be able to find Castel's survival.

Fran was in Kyrokyo for a while, but he soon discovered what he wanted.

"That...."

Oh, it's definitely different from the others.

"Nh"

Amanda said she made it herself, but the tomb was obviously different from the rest.

It wasn't a beautiful tombstone professionally cut out of its own stone, it was a coarse tombstone that amateurs could tell was just the size of the stone that fell there.

However, if you look at the surface you think it has been scraped many times, you can see that it was made with the utmost care. The difficulty of the maker and his thoughts seemed to be conveyed.

When I checked the tombstone, it was indeed carved as "Kinan" and "Flamea". Definitely Fran's parents' tomb.

"Father, Mother."

……

"On...."

……

We offered a moment of silent prayer.

Fran's father, his mother. My name is Master. I'm Fran's partner. You may be worried about me, but I'll keep protecting Fran even if I replace him. Please, keep an eye on Fran from heaven.

A few minutes later. Fran looks up to heaven. And he nodded loudly.

"... nn. It's over."

Is that enough?

"Nh, now that I've said goodbye,"

As long as Fran is convinced, that's fine with me.

It's good to be here. Once again, I was able to pledge my determination to protect the franc.

"I'll clean the grave."

I see. Let's go grass.

"Nh"

I don't have a lot of work to do, but the fact that I did something like this is important.

After clearing the surrounding weeds, use water magic to clean Fran's parents' grave.

It was shortly after the grave was cleaned. Fran stopped moving unexpectedly. It's not just francs. The same goes for Ursi.

Hmm?

"On!"

That was...

I can feel it, too. Obviously, it's a sign of people.

Explore the surroundings. Then I could feel slight signs of people from this neighborhood.

I decided it was unattended, but it wasn't.

Exploring further the signs, it seemed that there was someone in the house next to the cemetery.

You live in this abandoned village? Or did he escape for some reason? However, it is quite a skill to hide without us realizing it.

If for some reason the hidden form hadn't been disturbed for a moment, he might have left the castel unaware.

What do we do? I don't know who he is. "

Not necessarily an ally. I can't abandon the possibility of being a thief's former adventurer or a member of a criminal organization.

But Fran walks toward the sign.

(You may be able to hear about Castel)

Okay. Just be careful. Prepare the Ursi to attack from the shadows at any time. "

(On!)

Now, what kind of man is in hiding?
