"... give me this,"

"Yes!"

My favorite, sunny grin, lady staring at this one with pleasure. What she gave me was a champagne gold double sword with a very elegant and fashionable design. You're a beautiful sword as if you were made in the image of a lady...

... I'm afraid to ask.

"Um... isn't this something very expensive...?

"It's not what Mason cares about. It's noble taste to contribute to your loved ones, because it's noble status how expensive they are to contribute."

Yeah, I guess we should just stick it in here.

"... I've never heard of such taste or status"

"It's a joke. I got a cheap transfer from a merchant my house has been dealing with for a long time. And the stronger Mason is, the safer I am, so this is an investment to protect myself."

"... ok. Well, thank you very much. Let me take care of it."

"Do so. ♪ That sword is mine. And look at it when you're away, and remember me."

"... Yes, I will"

I also feel that "when I'm away" is less than enough in itself, but let's not stick it in there.

"Good. ♪ Oh, by the way, if you're a longsword, it's an artifact. Man-Gosh is normal, though."

"... Yes!?

No, no, no, no, no, no. Artifacts? Artifacts are weapons and tools with special abilities, made mainly of ancient technology, which cannot be reproduced with modern magic technology. Depending on what abilities you have, it's supposed to cost a hell of a lot...

"It's a good reaction ♪ The ability is what they call" demon-killing, "and they can pierce the magic of the defense system or play and fly attack magic. Let's try my magic next time."

Seriously. That's what you're capable of. Then a swordsman with this will be like a "natural enemy of the Wizard."... How much was this? Didn't you do half a million or a million?

... that? If you look closely, some letters are carved. And it's not an ancient letter.

"From Chelsea, love..."

"Have you noticed? Is that okay? Not only do I have special abilities, but I also have a lot of love."

"... lady"

"There's nothing to be burdened with. Of course you don't need to give it back. Because I just pushed it on my own. But I won't accept" I can't have it "anymore. I said thank you, Mason."

"... thank you. I will continue to work sincerely to help your daughter at all."

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

A few days later, the lady and I visited the beach, and I performed performance experiments by playing long swords of the attacking magic that the lady unleashed, or by trying to slash the marutai that the lady had defensive magic on her.

In terms of results... no, no, this. I can play it up to advanced magic normally, and I can't even cut off flying magic. The defensive magic that was supposed to be applied if I tried slashing Marutai was completely disabled, and the cleavage itself was superb, so I easily went straight into two.

Until now, mainly Man-Gosh has been a tool for minimal defense, and the Longsword has been positioned exclusively for offense, but even if we need to make some changes to that way of fighting, I think it's well worth actively using these two swords.

It's possible that you can't handle special magic like 'Gautia' or 'Il', but with this sword, you'll feel almost invincible in your battle with the Mage. The basic performance itself as a sword, even without special abilities, was fantastic.

The lady who saw the actual performance was very satisfied with faces such as "as imagined". And now they are colluding, as usual, sitting side by side on the beach after the experiment looking out at the sea.

"Can I tell you why I wanted to present that sword to Mason"

"Yes, of course"

"The first reason is because the color is somewhat like mine. Mason would think so, wouldn't he?

"Right. Not only the colours, but also the fashionable and elegant similarities with the lady"

"... thanks. Don't you think you can light it up already?... Anyway, I wanted Mason to have a sword like my split. That's the first reason."

"... thank you"

"And there's another reason I like that sword."

"What is the reason"

"That's what the sword was, the Demon Killer Sword."

"... I see?

You can't read sincerity with just your current words. How could that have been good?

"You're being looked at as a little unsure. Hehe."

"... excuse me"

"No, I don't understand. I take it for granted. And that's why I liked the ability of the sword."

"Yes."

"... because with that sword, Mason can easily take my life"

"... Yes?

I'm losing track of it. What are you talking about, this lady?

"Look, Mason with that sword is going to be like a" natural enemy of the Wizard. "

"... right"

"So even if I have some strong magic, I will never be outnumbered by a Mason with that sword."

"Is it..."

If you use a method to break it out of your body with 'il', for example, even if you had this sword, I think the lady would win. Why kill each other in the first place?

"Yes, because Mason, a leading swordmaster, had an artifact specializing in hunting demon mentors. I can't be the enemy."

"Ha..."

It just makes the conversation easier where I argued here, so let's just hear it go on.

"So... if I, who can't possibly be any match for Mason like that, betray or grieve about Mason without distracting myself... you just have to slaughter such a woman. With that" Demon Killer Sword ""

……

"Even if not, if I don't listen to Mason, or if there's anything in my actions that Mason doesn't like at all, Mason can just poke that sword and say this to me." Listen to me if you don't want to be killed. "

……

"... what do you think? Did you start to look a little bit more affordable about me?"

Oh, come on! Love is too heavy. It's been a little too yandered lately, lady...

But that's it, I know exactly what the lady's saying right now, but she's figuring out pretty much everything I think of her now.

... Isn't it really the heart of people, not the future, to 'see' her?

"... unfortunately, I'm starting to think" You're no match for this guy "rather than before"

"Yes!? How does that happen?"

"'Cause the lady knows how I feel, so she told you that, didn't she?... for example, where I don't think I have a single place to catch a lady... or where I'm worried that if someone far more amazing than me shows up in front of a lady in the near future, she'll change her mind..."

"... well, I've been watching. About Mason."

"... really, what would you like about such a hectic uncle"

"It's all. Including that slightly hectic and cute part."

"... thank you"

"You're welcome."

"... I'll take it more seriously. Future things with the lady"

"... Yes."

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

A few days later, I told the lady my thoughts and feelings.

That the lady really thinks she can be a queen or a Four Heavens King, but that when she is tied to me, she will probably be the most realistic image of the future, and that by doing so, she is still not sure if she can let me use all the infinite possibilities that extend to the future of the lady for something, or if I can take it away from her.

In the meantime, I made a suggestion about the future of the two of us that I had in mind. Next year, when your daughter enrolls in the School of Magic, she says I'm also going to act as an adventurer based in Wang Du. When she tries her best to die so that she can be a man who matches her lady at all for the three years she has been enrolled in the School of Magic. But I'm trying to spend the holidays with you as much as possible.

And if the lady's feelings don't change when she graduates from the School of Magic...

I thought I'd run off and do anything then.

It was just a suggestion to buy time while I was postponing the conclusion, and it was also a claim to try the lady from above with a gaze, "Prove that whatever man you meet at the School of Magic won't change your mind," and I worried that maybe the lady would find it very unpleasant.

... but honestly, if this suggestion is why the lady gives you all her affection, then that might have made her feel like she had no choice. He's a hectic guy everywhere, I...

But the lady...

"Yes, of course that's fine.... I'm so glad you're serious about me"

and he answered that with my favorite smile.

"... I didn't think you'd be happy"

"Really? 'Cause we just have to wait four more years, right? I thought it might take another ten years, so I kind of got it."

So my heckling and indecision sometime forged her patience so hard... I'm sorry...

"But if graduating from Magic School doesn't change my mind, take it right. If that's when they say," I don't need it after all, "I'll unleash Gautia on myself in front of Mason and hurt myself."

"... of course. At that time, no matter how much the lady hates you, I'll scratch you hard and make you my wife."

"... that might be good. I'll pretend I don't like it, so can you scratch me?"

"... go ahead. Because that's the" Demon Killer's Sword "for those days."

"Mm-hmm, nice! I knew I could do it a little bit, but I was right to get that sword."

"What, were you forced to do it after all? Didn't you get a cheap concession from a merchant you knew?

"... ah"

In this way, I promised a beautiful duke and a conditional but future that I didn't think I was matching.... at all, we have to work hard to get closer to the person who deserves to stand next to her every day from now on.
