Ryuugoroshi no Sugosuhibi

On the day approaching the tenth day after the completion of the sword, that day, on the day of meeting the Cokias, Kosuke waits for the Cokias a short distance from Bellassen.

It rains during the night and is cool in the morning. There are no rain clouds in the sky, and the weather is likely to be sunny and hot during the day.

Looking up at the sky, a figure enters the edge of his sight. When I looked in the direction of the city to see if I was here, there were many people.

"Bordos!?

The face I haven't seen in months is walking with the Cokias.

It makes me happy to be reunited for a long time, and it also approaches from Kosuke.

"Long time no see!"

"Whoa!"

Bordos burst out his fist laughing, and Yusuke burst out his fist to fit, too, and hit him gently.

"I knew it was time to come home, but I didn't expect to come with the Cokias. Looks like you got your arm up too."

"You seem to be getting stronger, too. I don't know the details, but somehow I can feel that vibe."

"I'm hitting it. Because a lot happened after we broke up at the tournament. Talk to you later."

"I'll look forward to it"

"So why are you with the Cokias?

"Sister, you would have moved the house, wouldn't you? So I don't know where it is, I had trouble asking my guild, and they introduced me to these guys that my Koske godson might know. And I have a message from the Alliance."

"Somehow I can predict the content"

I would have told you to show your face.

He asked me to come to the guild.

"I knew it. Sorry, but it would help if you told me you wouldn't be close for a while"

"I don't mind, but why aren't you going?

I'll talk to you later, too.

The Jerms know the circumstances, so I can talk to them, but I thought I'd keep the confidentiality to myself because I'm going to talk to them later anyway. Kokia and the others may be lighter when she sees how easy it is to talk.

I nodded, Bordos would not pursue it any further.

Tell the Cokias to wait just a moment and send Bordos home with a transfer.

I didn't just move out, I put my surprised Bordos in the new house and went back to the Cochias.

"I'm home. Shall we start with a bareback, as usual"

"Before that, I want to ask you something."

Gelm listens as he pulls out his sword.

"Who was Bordos earlier?

"Didn't you ask him in person?

"About the famous adventurer in the Bellassen Guild"

"That fits. You're an adventurer who worked around Bellassen until a few months ago, and I guess your visibility in the Bellassen Guild is at the top of your list. He went on a journey to compete in the main battle to compete in a martial arts tournament held at a place called Resortic Marg on the continent of Calhoud. After that I looked around and came back recently. I'm stronger than the Germs."

"What's your relationship with Mr. Korske?

"Mr. Ellis was connected, and he taught me a lot about handling weapons and being an adventurer. It's like me and the Germs."

"Not so much a master, but a teacher or something like that?

Yeah, well, Yusuke nods.

Convinced Gelm wields his sword. Next to it, Cokia and Udriga also shook up their respective weapons.

The Gelms are getting new gear with the money they previously got. Gelm is buying a sword, Terrier a wand amplifier, Cochia a a boot covering armor and calves, and Udriga a hammer.

With strength gains and new equipment in fake divine disturbances, the team's offensive power is rising, and the requests it receives are skewed by the crusading system. Sometimes I advise him to take requests for escorts and collections and gain experience as an adventurer, finishing his training today.

Yusuke listened to everyone, saw the training landscape, and looked convinced of something. I noticed that. Terrier and Udriga were tilting their necks wondering what it was.

"It's time for me to quit as a teacher for the Cokias."

"Huh!?

"No!?

Cokia and Gelm are surprised by the sudden line. Terrier and Udriga are also surprised, but the size of the surprise was greater in the former.

"You promised me until we were alone, right? After listening and watching the training, I decided that it was a little early but enough without my involvement. The truth is, for the sake of that judgment, I was going to ask you to fight a strong demon, but Jerm had fought through to the end in the battle against the fake god faithful, and Cokia was able to launch an attack without being pushed by the fake god atmosphere. When I remembered that, I thought it was enough."

Kosuke, who was more powerful than Kokia, was terrified. It would be a compliment if Cokia could just move on that spot.

"I still have something to teach you."

That's what Jerm says, but as Kosuke, he thinks there's nothing more to teach. The sword mould also falls out of habit, fixed on what I taught it, and if I keep what I was pointing out, I won't get weird habits. If you also look up your knowledge in guilds, etc., you will gain enough weight.

"I taught you what you could teach me. All you have to do is polish yourself. You can't call me a teacher if you stick around forever."

"Does Mr. Koske have any plans after this? You know, going out on a request somewhere again?

Terrier asks me if I mentioned stopping because I'm going to be busy.

"Other than going to get the sword, I don't have any particular business like this. You want to relax? You should come home if you have trouble or want to go to another continent because you won't be busy. I can help you to the best of my ability."

"Where is the house?"

"In directional terms, over there. Straight ahead, there is a forest. There's Mr. Ellis' house in there."

"I will definitely ask you. Thanks for your help."

"Thank you for your advice. Thanks."

Terrier and Udriga bow their heads. We're both sorry, but I'm convinced we can't count on it forever.

"Don't let Terrier stress you out. Udriga hopes the training is over."

"When I'm stressed, I'm going to let you eat something delicious"

"Okay. Waiting."

"Look, we've both been taken care of, so say thank you"

Take two confused hands and push forward. Jerm and Kokia leave in front of Kosuke as they are pushed.

Neither of us is convinced, but I remind you that I'm a volunteer and I give up that I can't detain you forever.

The two men, who remained silent, looked at each other and bowed their heads at the same time.

"" Thank you!

I can feel a definite gratitude.

"When Jerm is about to run wild, take a deep breath and put it down for a beat. Don't let Cokia miss her daily training. Because now the harder we try, the stronger we become. See you sometime, then."

Saying a short goodbye, Kosuke returns home with a transfer. I miss the gems for a light goodbye, but I reconsidered that I could see them anytime, and the next time I saw them, I decided to show them how grown up and surprise them.

The four of them head back to the city, telling them to get something to ask for. I guess the determination is real when I stop trying to pick a crusade request and see where I chose an escort.

When I got home, Ellis and the others were talking in the living room. Bordos and Weale sit in a chair, but Ellis was a conversation while working in the kitchen.

"I'm home. Is Mr. Ellis making lunch?

"Oh, because Bordos asked me to"

Ellis shakes her neck sideways to the question of whether to help. Wiale's offer was also turned down. Ellis hasn't even shown up on his face for Bordos' long return, but he must have been happy to feel it and wanted to behave hand-cooked.

"Welcome back. I heard you talk, but you've done a lot. I've made quite a move too, but I haven't had a dragon, a princess, a disciple, a shop, an old hero, a fake god and all that extravaganza."

"It's about the store I got involved with from myself. And then it all came from the other side."

"Apparently."

If I move aggressively, I nod as I think I may have been going to run into more trouble than ever before.

"What has Bordos done?

"You know you went out to exorcise demons after that tournament, right? I worked with other adventurers to defeat them. Afterwards, at the request of the escort, he went to another city. At that time, the merchants who escorted him liked him and introduced him to the nobility who was ruling the town. Looks like he was a merchant for the nobles, he asked me to introduce him when he found a good adventurer for a long time. Baron and status were low, but you handled the town's specialties well and you had the money. He was a nice guy who felt like he had never been great. As we talked, he asked me to train the town's militias to do it and limit the month and time to take it on. I've been trying to teach them, but I knew that Koske's memory was unusual."

"Uh, I know very well. I thought I'd cooked well and been doing it for years, but I was so surprised to hear that it's been a year since I started doing it."

Wiale nods deeply.

"Thanks to the title, though. I'm making it easier."

"I wonder how far we can go if we don't actively acquire technology and neglect our efforts to stretch it?

Curiosity inspires me.

"Leave me alone, what's the rest of the story?

"Did you even talk to him about working out the militia? Because I compared that workout to Koske, I became strict. I got stronger for it. By the time I finished teaching, I had learned to add and subtract. You've been a fruitful request to me, too, that one. There's something I can teach someone, but it's true."

"I taught Cokia and Jerm, too, but I don't really feel it."

"You're special."

Bordos cut short the question of Kosuke and threw it away. Wiale and Ellis are nodding as they agree.

Yusuke didn't get a real feeling because he already knew what to tell and know to both of us.

"After a month of promises, I went to the ruins three days away from town. It's an underground site that you can enter from an island that floats on the lake, a site that you can't enter without the permission of the baron who was your employer. Sometimes soldiers came in and made maps. She also asked me to help her make that map. Everyone on the team was strained to get anything in the ruins other than too precious."

"It feels like an adventure. Sounds like fun."

"Sure. I was nervous, but it was fun."

Bordos laughs when he remembers that time.

Bordos tells us that it was in the ruins. The part where there was a map went well and careful action from the untapped part. Injuries caused by traps that could not be seen through. Battle against demons connected to ruins by enlarging nest holes. I discovered a hidden passage, and there it was. A sapphire tiger statue I don't know how I made it. And that everyone was frightened by Clares, who saw the rare metal that was beside him more than that statue and made a fuss.

Kisuke and Wiale were thrilled to hear such things as adventure plays. Ellis used to go through something similar, so she was finishing the dish while calmly asking about some of that.

"It's done. I'll see you later."

Mainly dishes similar to chili beans, with fries of fish, potato salad and bread made in the morning. The chilli beans smell of spice, and who's going to overflow? The fish fries are prototyped by Yusuke and served with a tartare sauce that Ellis likes.

Be a meal with prayer. Bordos cheeks up the dish looking delicious.

Finish eating without leaving it, lunch is over.

"Bordos ate nearly half of it, didn't he? Was it that good?

"Sometimes it was delicious, but it's the most familiar flavor for me. You're going in as much as you want."

"I think it tastes like home."

If I said it tasted like my mother, Ellis might have gotten upset. In anticipation of that, Kosuke said it tasted like home.

Kosuke and Wiale take on the cleanup, and the conversation resumes on Ellis' behalf.

"Uh, how far did I tell you?

Explore the ruins.

"Yes, he was. He was. I didn't get the tiger statue exactly, but I got paid for expanding the metal and tread area. After that, I made another trip around town. Clares said he wanted to go to Cuhan, so his next destination became Cuhan. There was nothing particularly unusual there. I'm sorry to hear about the review meeting in a few months. The next destination was a dungeon of leisure because Sain's guy wanted to go. There was only a city where adventurers gathered, and it was essential to talk about engaging adventurers. It was an easy city for adventurers, with a wealth of weapons and tools."

"I've been there, too, but you felt that. It was helpful to have everything I needed right away, and with a good doctor, my injuries healed quickly, and the quality of my tired service made it easy to fight and explore."

Ellis nods with a nostalgic face.

"I'm going to cut it up in a month, and I stuck around for a long time. Were you staying for more than two months? I didn't get the artifact, though. I got a lot of money though. So I looked around enough, and I thought it was time to go home, so I stopped by and came back."

"Do you have plans for the future?

"No, I haven't decided. I have something to think about, and I'm going to relax a little bit."

The part about thinking made me look difficult. I wonder how much it is.

"Let's talk about it, shall we?

"No, I don't think this would make sense for you to talk to me."

"Is that something you can't talk about?

"I can talk to you... I'll talk to you if you want to hear"

Seeing the three of them snort, Bordos sighed small. Write your cheeks with your fingers, while making them blurry and wordy.

"In fact, on the return ship, I was confessed to Clares and Sain"

"Is that the direction you're talking about?"

"Heh."

"Wow, is that a confession!?

It's Ellis, Kosuke and Wiale from the top. Ellis was convinced of the reason he was reluctant to say so. Yusuke is impressed that those two finally confessed. It was Wiale who reacted strongly, I guess, when I was old enough to be interested in romantic stories. It shows off the status of working out a plate that I was about to drop and grabs it.

"What happened to your reply?

"It was like a confession I put on the momentum after I got drunk, and I didn't know if I meant it."

"I mean it. I have heard from Mr Clares that Bordos is dull and doesn't even notice me when I approach him. They said the same thing about the other one."

"... Really?

When did you ever talk like that? I see Kosuke with a face full of questions like that. Nod back at it.

"Are you serious?"

"So I figured out for real, how did Mr. Bordos respond?

"... I don't know"

Consider yourself in serious trouble. I can't think of anything, squeaking my hair and opening my mouth with a scratchy face.

"Does anyone of the three have any helpful stories?

"It's not romantic, I've been in love before, but it's not helpful."

Finish cleaning up afterwards and answer as you sit in the chair.

Besides, Ellis and Weare will look more intrigued than Bordos.

"I want to hear it, that story"

"Me, too."

"That's not funny, is it? About four years ago now? A friend of mine made her and bragged about it, and I got interested in romance, too. So I confessed and was accepted by the child who I had always thought was a little better. We spent a month or so playing or talking and we stayed together. And me and my opponent broke up with a cold fever. We were both interested in something called love, and we were satisfied because we could experience it. I guess he was the one who fell in love when he was your age."

When we broke up, we talked about it without getting mixed up. Relationships such as good friends continued after that.

She's the one that comes to mind the most when Yusuke comes here and tells me that she's missing in her hometown and worries about me besides my family.

"That won't help."

"Right?"

"I can talk about things that don't help either. I think you admired it now. Before I was ten? I had a six-pack brother who would take care of me. I liked that guy and I wanted to be with him, and he was always stuck. I know you sometimes develop from admiration to love, but you left the brotherhood orphanage before you did, and you never got to fall in love with me less often. Now I'm building a happy family."

The other party has also met Kosuke, a consultant who has issued requests for monumental relations.

"That doesn't help either. Looks like we're even in love. Only your sister will stay."

"No. I don't have that much contact with people. I don't care if they bring that story to me."

"I thought so. No, Koske, not before, but now you don't have a favorite one or something?

"Now? You like Mr. Ellis and Weale."

"Is that a light double-strand declaration?

Bordos peeps into the reaction of the two people he was told to behave. Ellis has nothing unusual on the surface, and Wiale is radically lit with a reddish face.

"You didn't say you were going out or anything, but you wouldn't have a two-strand declaration. Besides, I haven't even been in love."

I made a quick double-strand declaration. I guess I really don't have romantic feelings, it was such a light addition and subtraction that I could tell.

"I did a quick self-analysis, but I guess I know what you're counting on and what you're looking for, sister."

"Sister."

"Sister"

Receive each of Yusuke's words. I can't read it in my mind from the look on my face. Though being serious is no different from both of them.

"Don't you have romantic feelings for your sisters"

Bordos says so, but he's not conclusive with his sisters, so maybe we can see what happens as undetermined.

"Well, it's good about me. Now we're talking about Bordos. You said two strands at a time, but dating more than one at a time is just as problematic as my hometown."

"That's not true at all. Surely there are many who love one. But nobles and others are polygamous and monogamous. There's nothing chaotic about polygamy. Sometimes those who have the financial strength to feed them marry more than one. Ordinary people are monogamous but some have two wives or husbands"

It's not explicitly forbidden. They agree and are accepted as long as they are worthwhile. I can be jealous.

Anyone who marries and breaks with more than one person because he is doing well shall be subject to scorn from everyone. Conversely, those with a full family are respected. And then homosexuality is not so prejudicial either.

If God had said it was forbidden, people would have been affected by it, too, but he hasn't said any of that.

Kosuke feels a different world for a long time, saying that the feeling there is more ambiguous than the Earth.

"When I say I can say the rest, it would be rude to choose both because I think it would be cuter not to have been chosen if I had chosen one. That's the place."

Knowledge gained from TV or a book, but it wouldn't hurt to tell you, Kosuke added.

"Think about it"

"Do it."

Back to the room. Ellis threw a short word at Bordos.

"I was small when I picked it up. Did you grow up until you had such a problem?"

"Emotional?

I nod so-so to Yusuke's inquiry.

"I guess it's the emotion of being a parent."

Ellis stares down at Yusuke. I feel a different kind of pressure from what I received from a false god, and a fright arises in my heart. Still, I think I should tell you, and I'll look back without pulling.

I read the air earlier so I wouldn't water the reunion, but now that Bordos is back in the room, I thought I wouldn't have to hesitate.

The pageant lasts for about a minute and Ellis is much less powerful.

"I know, that's about it. Bordos wants to call me my mother."

Close your eyes, put your weight on the back of the chair, and whine softly.

"I still can't. But it will be okay. One day, it won't take much longer."

I've spent nearly my entire life getting here. Pull out the thorns that stung my heart, little by little. Even if the thorn is pulled out, the wound will remain. Still, I can feel fine enough to be called my mother by Bordos. Ellis thinks so, and believes it.

Keisuke and Wiale can't touch Ellis without closing their eyes and moving. Leave the scene quietly. Even if we didn't do something, we could understand, though it wasn't clear when we could handle it.

The next day, Ellis was back to normal. Bordos, on the other hand, continued to worry with a difficult face all the time. Bordos' troubles persisted the next day and the day after.

When you are too worried and stressed, you are stressed out by your opponent as much as you want, and you worry again.

Yusuke and I thought if we bothered for five days, we would come to a conclusion, but even after that, Bordos continued to bother.

Ellis, who became depressed, decided to talk to Bordos again. Yusuke and Wiale thought the same thing, so I thought it was helpful when Ellis said that.

"What's bothering you?

"Get out of the way, that's a lot of stuff. Do you really like me, or do you have someone who deserves more than me, or do you want me to answer either of us, or do you want me to answer both?"

"What do you think of those two yourself? I think it would be easier if I knew that."

"... my feelings,"

I started worrying again, so Wiale asks to simplify the problem.

"Either you like it or you hate it?

"You like it."

I answered the question briefly. I didn't have to worry about it.

"Is there anything at all directed at the opposite sex to its liking?

"You have a beautiful smile for yourself, or are you glad they called you names, or did you feel fun and happy to see yourself having fun?

Yusuke also asks following Wiale.

Bordos remembers what he's been through with Clares and Sayne.

"I've thought about it when it's beautiful. I've also thought it sounds like fun. I wonder what your name is?

It is commonplace to be called, and I am not aware that I am happy, etc.

"Let's do the opposite. Do you feel sad when they stop calling you?

"... probably"

"Aren't the two of you, for Bordos, staying by your side and being normal? I think it's okay to say I have a thing for you."

"I think so too"

"Same goes for me."

"Really? No, I think so."

We all thought it might be a bit of a forceful push, but if we don't push our backs hard, we're going to be worried forever.

"I just found out if I like it or not, which one do you choose next or both? As far as I'm concerned, it's a good idea to choose between the two. There's no point in asking which one you like better. I think there's a good thing about both. If you know a lot of good things, you'll get more favors. Even if it is more favorable now, it can be reversed later. If you know more about them, you can like them as much as you want."

I've tried to be helpful, but it's just a trick to leave the momentum to me. Because I didn't say anything that could make me hate it. I pushed my back, and the rest is for whoever says anything to choose for themselves.

Neither Ellis nor Weale can tell us to choose them because they don't know about Clares and Sain.

He says he'll think about it, and Bordos goes out into the garden. The look I'm still thinking about, but it was definitely clearer than yesterday.

"I wonder what kind of conclusion to draw."

"I want Bordos to make a happy choice."

The last two days later, Bordos, who concluded, was sent to Ellis and returned to Bellassen.

So Clares and Sayne discussed it and conveyed their thoughts.

The conclusion Bordos has drawn is that we will be together. Clares and Sain nodded at the answer. If the answer I gave was mild, I would have said no, even though I was in love. I'm not going to fall in love with such a groovy boy.

But he told me that Bordos' expression when he conveyed his thoughts was not a light-hearted feeling. I've been worried, thought about it, and often told that it's the answer I put out over time. That's why they snorted.

Ellis, who was hiding and watching it, gently leaves the scene. I felt that the weight, which was never offensive, was gone from my body, and I felt a little loneliness.

Three days later, Bordos, Clares and Sain came to the house and appeared to report to Ellis that they were going to be dating. Ellis smiled and received the word while teasing Bordos.

A day before Bordos came to report, Kosuke heads to Wiale and Cuhan saying it was time for the sword to be completed. Ellis chose to leave a message saying she wouldn't have to follow. I guess I had a feeling Bordos was coming soon.

This is the first city I come to, so I hang out with a little sightseeing in Wiale and arrive at the Walleidore Workshop.

Speaking from the entrance, a suspicious disciple emerged.

"Oh, it's been a while! The sword is done!

Tell him that the sword is ready for some excitement. I was a little excited about Yusuke wondering if he could do so well.

"Parents! Mr. Watase is here!

"Oops! There he is! Let me in!

"So go ahead"

My apprentice takes me to the workshop. There was a negative and a strange man waiting there. I guess it's another apprentice. There is no Ushir and Bahar. I'm out of town to meet Lip.

On the table, a crate is placed. It has a lid and I don't see the contents, but it would definitely be with the sword I ordered.

"I've been waiting for you! I was so excited to give this to you!

The minor laughs in a good mood, beating the crate often.

"Sounds pretty confident."

"Whoa! That's the best you've ever done."

"I look forward to seeing it"

Tell him to look forward, and the negative opens the lid.

The moment I saw the contents, Wiale leaked a small, admirable voice. Yusuke also opens his eyes and has a surprised look.

The presence is amazing, there is an atmosphere where you can see it as a specialty just by looking at it. It is a sword that should not be compared to what was put out at the Eliana Martial Arts Store.

The impression of appearance is that of a black sword with little decoration. The body is black as lustrous as obsidian, and the lighted areas reflect lightly into rainbow. The twillion is made of blunt gold metal, the pattern is wrapped with a silky cloth, and the pattern head is fitted with a gold clasp.

As for the shape, it is close to a sword called Chink Edia. (10) The width near the blade is the widest and gradually narrows as it heads towards the tip of the blade. That one's a dagger, but this one's a long sword conscious of handling with both hands. About a hundred and ten centimeters in length, eighty centimeters in body and twenty-five centimeters in pattern. It weighs less than fifty kilos.

"Can I try it?

"It's your sword. You don't have to say no."

Remove from the crate with one hand. Heaviest sword I've ever had, but this much felt just right.

Shaking it gently was so easy to handle that it seemed that the sword and arms were integrated.

An amazing sword gives me a real feeling, my heart bounces to joy, and I can't help but suppress my face turning into a laugh.

"Wow!

I enjoy waving my sword, forgetting that it's vertical and horizontal and indoor.

They are all in love with it and unable to pay attention to it. It seemed like too much fun, the sword muscle was beautiful, and I was curious to watch the dance. Even the sound of the blade slashing the wind sounds like music that brings out the dance.

He continued to shake for about five minutes, and Satisfied Kosuke stopped moving. I approached the negatives and bowed my head in momentum.

"Awesome! Thank you!

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

"How much will that cost you!? I'll give you my word now!

"I don't want any money."

"What?"

Kosuke's expression hardens with surprise when he hears an incredible word.

"No, no, no! You can't just get something so amazing! Your son, it's too expensive for the reward you found!?

"There's also a reward, but I got compliments for making it. As a blacksmith, that's enough."

"Compliments? To whom?

"To God Driz, who conducts blacksmiths. I'm sure people who make things know how happy they are."

Words arrived in the back of my brain when my sword was ready. It praised the creation of the sword, and there was no more sword in return for more than the last hundred years.

To cite one difficulty, I would choose a user because of their weight. It's not made for 10,000 people, so it's not a negative point.

These announcements are not something you can hear even if you get the highest rating at a quality review meeting, and I've never heard of any of them before.

I am in the mood for further encouragement with the aim of creating a sword beyond this in the future.

"I've already received two rewards: compliments and goals. I don't need any more."

"Thank you"

I bowed my head in gratitude for two things: being able to make so much and not taking money.

"This is the sheath. I don't know if I'll ever get out of it."

Hand over the same sheath of cedar as the pattern, edged with silver metal. Hand over the sword to punish the treasure to the sheath given to you.

When it is impossible to lower to the waist, the sheath is belted so that it can be carried.

"I always take care of my sword, don't I?

"Yes, then thank you very much"

Finally, I bow my head again, and Yusuke and the others leave the workshop.

A sword is a tool that you have to fight. Can I assume that what it's got means the end of everyday life?

Signs of battle had already appeared, such as the strengthening of new species of demons, existing demons. Those who try to increase the scale of the battle, those who try to prevent it, are already on the move and not so far away until they are out of touch.

The battle involving many is about to begin, not just Yusuke.

Can a sword you get be a sword that cuts through difficulties? The sword does not speak in silence.
