Chapter 75 Side Story Part 6: Reggie’s First Errand
Chapter 75 Side Story Part 6: Reggie’s First Errand
“Master, I want to work.”
The cursed sword Reggie said something strange in her human form, so I made her sit on the bed for now.
“What did you just say?”
“I said I wanted to work.”
The humanoid Reggie was sitting on the edge of the bed with her knees together, her body smaller than Iris’s despite the fact that she is a cursed sword that has lived for 100 years. She was wearing a loose white robe and her favorite twin-tailed hair was swaying.
The way she looked and acted felt like how a human would, but I don’t know what she’s thinking.
We hadn’t have much time to talk about anything serious. She was always quick to change the subject to something erotic.
“You want to work, but you have been working all the time, haven’t you?”
Since I’ve come to Ilgafa, I’ve been fighting Golems and busting serpents.
She did play a role in those fights, didn’t she?
“I don’t mean that. I want to work like the other little girls.”
Reggie’s big black eyes widened and she waved her hands.
“Oh, I see. But why all of a sudden?”
“I was always treated as a treasure and rarely went out. At this, I’ll end my life as a naive cursed sword.”
“A cursed sword trapped in a box, huh.”
“Not in a box, but a scabbard.”
“That’s because it’s too dangerous.”
She’s sharp, can regenerates, and is incredibly powerful.
“Anyway, now that I’m your slave, let me do something, Master.”
Reggie laid down on the bed and jerked around.
It’s rare to find a cursed sword that is spoiled, let alone boxed in a scabbard.
“I understand what you’re trying to say.”
“I knew you would understand me, Master.”
“When you find a new Master, they’ll put you in their treasury, so you want to have a normal life before that happens, right?”
“No, in any case, when Master dies, I will throw myself into the sea to follow you.”
“It’s heavy! I mean, how can a cursed sword kill itself!”
“I can’t help it, since the Cursed Sword of [Mind Manipulation] has been turned into the Cursed Sword of [Slime Manipulation]. Now I’m just a surprise item…”
I turned weak hearing that.
I downgraded her, though it was to avoid being controlled by her.
“Okay. I’ll ask around if there’s something you can do.”
“Yay.”
Reggie jumped, shaking her twin-tailed hair.
She’s been alive for almost 100 years, but she’s so childish in these ways.
“Will you go to the market and buy some fish for me then?”
Aine was in the kitchen washing dishes.
The port city of Ilgafa has a well-developed water network, and when you operate the pump, fresh water comes out. This is due to the underground water supply system, which is apparently managed by engineers and wizards.
“I want to cook something.”
“Have you cooked something before, Reggie?”
“I’ve never done this before, but leave it to me! I am the cursed sword of doom and destruction!”
“… Please buy the fish for me.”
“Inexplicable.”
Of course, who would let someone who causes doom and destruction to cook?
Reggie still looked unhappy, but Aine passed her off with her usual fluffy smile.
She wiped her hands on her apron and then took out three Arshas from her purse on the shelf.
“I heard that fish is cheaper than meat in Ilgafa. We need to eat something nutritious before our trip. We need enough for 6 fishes. Please make sure it’s fresh. Can you do it, Reggie?”
“Ha! What are you talking about, maid girl? I am a cursed sword that has lived for 100 years. Of course I can buy some fresh fishes!”
Reggie looked at me with her chest completely heaving.
“Well, Master! You may now install in me the skill of ‘discerning the freshness of fish’!”
“No.”
Smack
I smacked Reggie on her back.
“If you buy all those skills, you’ll go over budget.”
“I must ensure that my mission is accomplished. Is there anyway for me to pay for it?”
In the first place, there is no such pinpointed skill.
… No, maybe there is. But it’s too expensive for just meals.
“You know, Reggie. The freshest fish are the ones with dark, shiny eyes and their fins are taut. Also, make sure their gills are clean.”
That’s Aine for you.
She squatted down, looks Reggie in the eye, and gave her the right advice.
“Ilgafa is a port town, so if you go to the market, you should be able to find something that was caught this morning. Don’t go to a shop that sells food with white or shiny eyes, or food with a sticky body. Don’t forget that your precious Na-kun is going to eat it.”
“Yes! Now, Master, shall we go?”
Reggie grabbed my hand.
“Me too?”
“Of course. I can never be too far from you, or my main body to be exact.”
It really was so.
The red-haired Reggie in the form of a girl is like an avatar made of mana, and her main body is a black cursed sword. Of course, she can’t leave her main body. So, in order for her to go out, someone has to carry around the cursed sword.
So, naturally, that would be my role.
“All right. I want to see something at the market, so I’ll go with you.”
“Wait a minute, if Na-kun going out, you’ll need an escort.”
“Ha! What are you talking about, maid girl? I am a cursed sword that has lived for 100 years. It’s no problem for me to protect my master!”
“I’m sure you can, but still… if I could follow…”
Aine, you’re being deceived.
The humanoid Reggie doesn’t have any combat power, so it’s no different than me being alone in the first place.
But…, well, that’s okay. We’re just going to the market, so there’s no danger.
“Rest assured, maid girl. I promise you to bring back fresh fish in my name. If not, you can boil me, bake me, sell me, or do whatever you want!”
And that’s how, I went on an errand with Reggie.
“… No fish?”
With a plop, the backpack fell off Reggie’s back.
This was a corner of the market.
We had come to this shop that buys fish directly from the fishermen after hearing about it from the townspeople.
But the shop was empty, without a single fish in sight.
All I could see was an old lady in a shopfront, looking bored and scratching her head.
“Oh, the boat didn’t come out today. I have some dried fish in the back.”
“Oh, I see. Can’t be helped then. Let’s buy some and go home.”
“What did you say, Master?”
Reggie shouted, kneeling stiffly on the ground.
What are you doing in front of the shop?
“How can I fail to fulfill my first daily mission?”
“We can’t buy it if there’s no one selling it.”
“The fish should be in the sea, why don’t we go and get them?”
Standing on her toes, Reggie spun around and pointed to the sea.
She sometimes acts theatrically because she has been in the Royal Court. Her mannerisms and manners are well learned. The problem is that she’s a bit naive.
“I dive, I grab the fish, I give it to Master. Isn’t that perfect?”
“Do you even float?”
“I don’t know, I’ve never done it before!”
Reggie declared with her heart in her mouth.
The main body of this thing is the cursed sword I’m carrying on my back. It seems that the humanoid Reggie and the cursed sword are connected, and they affect each other. So I don’t know if she will float or sink. But I don’t want her to get rusty, so I rejected her.
“In the first place, it’s not that easy to catch fish. It takes a lot of money and time to get the right tools. Give up for today.”
“Oh, why don’t you go to the beach?”
Suddenly, the lady at the fish shop said looing worriedly at Reggie who was kneeling on the ground.
“‘Young lady, you’re wearing a collar, which means you’re a slave, right? You’ve got a situation.”
“I must fulfill my mission as a… slave.”
No, it’s not that big of a deal.
Why are you being so realistically sad, you know?
It’s just an errand, right? There’s no life at stake, is there?
“If I can’t buy… fish, my plan to fulfill the… mission and look back at the other slaves will be ruined.”
“What’s your plan?”
“It’s a very far-sighted plan. …It is to lure the other girls, and inspire them to be of service to the Master, and watch them sneak into the Master’s bed with a grin on their faces.”
“All right. Let’s go home now. I need to talk to you.”
I picked Reggie up in my arms to ready to take her back home.
“I’m not sure what you want to do exactly but I understand your loyalty. I’m impressed.”
But the lady at the fish shop looked at Reggie with a twinkle in her eye for some reason.
“Then go to the west beach. Some idiots and other fishermen will be there. You should go and talk to them. If you’re lucky, you might get some high-class fish.”
“High-class fish!?”
“Um, Swordfish.”
I’ve heard of Swordfish…
As I recall, Iris told me that the Lord’s family served Swordfish pickled in vinegar.
“After the Festival of the Sea Dragon, this sometimes happens. Fish are no longer harvested offshore, and the coast is flooded with high-class fish. If you really want some, you should go there. If you mention my name, I’m sure they’ll give you at least one fish.”
“No, Master! Master!”
Reggie tugged on my arm.
“This is a good opportunity. If I bring back a freshly caught high-class fish on my first errand, and I’m sure the other slave girls will take a second look at me and say, ‘That’s Reggie, the cursed sword that has lived for 100 years’.”
“I don’t care what your plan is… Yeah, okay.”
High-class fish… I’ve never eaten anything like that before.
In my original world, I lived in a country that ate a lot of fish. The thing I ate most often was the fried white fish on my lunch. The other thing I ate most often was the fried white fish that came with the rice in my lunch box, and the uncooked fish in my rice balls.
Since I’m in a port town, I have try some fresh fish, right?
“Well, let’s go down to the beach.”
“That’s my Master, you knows what I am talking about!”
Reggie jumped at me at once.
When I patted her tiny head, she squinted her eyes as if she felt good.
Why can’t she always be like this?
So, after asking the lady at the fish shop for the exact location, Reggie and I headed for the beach.
As we walked along the street by the sea, I saw a sandy beach.
It was about an hour’s walk away from the main street. There were few houses up here, and the road was surrounded by rocks. There as a small sandy beach along the rocky beach that was cut like an embankment.
The area was about the size of a two-lane road in my previous world.
A group of burly men were gathered there, beating the surface of the sea with their poles.
The fishermen were strangely … all wearing armor.
There were nets on the beach, but they were not using it catch fish. It looked like some kind of ritual.
“Is this an Ilgafa religious ceremony?”
“The festival is over, isn’t it? Is there another Dragon coming?”
I remembered the lady at the fish shop saying that the fishermen were catching high-class fish.
But there were no fish anywhere. There was only a net on the beach.
“Oh, aren’t you the adventurer from last time?”
I heard someone’s voice.
Beneath the rocky ground, there was a man in armor.
He was the captain of the regular soldiers, wearing a horned helmet. His name was Dalus, I believe.
“It’s been a while. Since the Festival of the Sea Dragon, right? Are you no longer ‘Awakened’?”
“… I don’t remember much from that time.”
‘Awakened’… I remember saying something like that.
“It was like fleeting dream for me and that came that one time during festival. The Sea Dragon probably wanted to show its authority through me…”
“How can you come up with something on the spot, Master?”
Reggie was looking at me like she was in a daze. It was annoying for some reason.
“Oh, so it was a one-time thing. That’s right. There is no way a mere adventurer can ‘Awaken’ instead of us soldies. Yeah, yeah.”
The captain of the regular soldiers nodded at me.
When I looked around closely, I saw a line of regular soldiers in armor on the rocks. There are more than a dozen of them. All of them were carrying large shields.
“So, why are you here? Are you looking to join the regular soldiers?”
“No.”
It’s impossible. I won’t join if the Lord requests me to. I don’t want to work.
“No, no, no, don’t be shy. If you want, I can write you a letter of recommendation. A regular soldier is a regular employee of the Lord’s family, so you’ll gain some privileges and social credibility. It’s a very rewarding place to work. For some reason, newcomers don’t stick around, but it’s homely, and as long as you can fit in, you’ll have no problem sticking around. What do you think?”
“I’m not interested at all.”
When I shook my head, the captain of the regular soldiers slumped his shoulders.
“We’re just here to buy fish from the fishermen.”
“Yes. Where’s the high-class fish?”
“… you guys too?”
The captain looked disgusted for some reason.
“Every year, at this time, fishermen and adventurers flock to this area to hunt Swordfish, even though they’ve been instructed to refrain from using the Swordfish method. I understand that they want to make a little money, but I wish they’d stop.”
“Are they that expensive?”
“Yeah, ‘Swordfish’ are very hard to catch.”
The regular captain looked heartily uncomfortable as he explained about how difficult it is catch Swordfish.
“Swordfish, they are large fish with a double-edged sword on their head.
They have the [Swordsmanship] skill. They have large fins and swim at high speed. They can also jump more than ten meters by hitting the surface of the water with their fins.
They have a short temper and will not step back if provoked. They have a habit of trying to exterminate their enemies in groups.
Its meat is rich in umami and highly nutritious.
However, the downside is that it doesn’t last long. The meat goes bad quickly.
The sword is a vital part of the body, and if it is broken or damaged, it will quickly decay.
As a result, it is terribly difficult to catch and is considered a high-class fish. The market price for a fresh one is five to ten Arshas.”
“That’s why the fishermen are provoking the Swordfish by …“
Apparently the fishermen were not performing religious ceremony, but using a traditional fishing method of the Ilgafa.
“It’s the job of the regular soldiers to protect the people, so we have to go out of our way to help them.”
“You need protect them? They are just fish, aren’t they?”
“Just wait… you’ll see.”
The surface of the water rippled.
The sea began to glow silvery in the sunlight.
The fishermen who had been pounding the sea at the edge of the waves retreated to the beach.
The fishermen grabbed their fishing nets from the beach and spread them in the air. It was as if they were trying to catch a bird. But what they were about to do is catch fish.
“You’re in the way! Go hide behind that rock over there!”
The captain of the regular soldiers pointed to a corner of the rocky terrain, so I picked up Reggie and ran.
It’s was rocky hollow with a small sandy beach.
At the same time that Reggie and I jumped behind the rock, a silvery object shot out of the water.
The sound of water and a high-pitched scream began to echo behind us.
Reggie and I poked our heads out from behind a rock and looked in the direction of the fishermen. There…
“Aaahhhh!”
“Idiot! This year’s fish go for vitals!”
“Maybe it’s because the tide changed due to the appearance of the Sea Dragon! They are wiser than previous years!”
“Don’t use metal nets!”
“Don’t hit their head! If you crush their head, it won’t sell well!”
… It was a mess.
What emerged from the sea was a school of silvery fish that flew to the ground with the force of a bullet.
The “Swordfish” were just like Swordfish tuna from my previous world.
But the sight of them flying through the air with a sword on their head made them seem like a thrown weapon.
They were around one meter in size. If I include the sword on their head, they about the same size as Reggie.
And there were more than a dozen of them.
All at once, they are attacking the fishermen on the beach. They seemed to be angry because the fishermen provoked them by slapping the surface of the sea.
The Swordfish jumped, slapping the surface of the water with their long fins. They jumped straight at the fishermen. The fishermen had set their nets, but they were torn apart. The Swordfish were using their head sword to cut through the shiny black net. Fishnets couldn’t stop their swords. They were too strong for a fish.
When the Swordfish broke the net, they crashed into the rocks because of their own momentum.
The crashed fishes broke their sword and were rotting away by the second. I learned later that their sword is made of some kind of ceramic, and that it is their greatest weapon and weakness. It has a concentration of nutrients and nerves, or something like that.
And that was the reason why they were so rare and expensive.
The fisherman’s goal is to catch the Swordfish unharmed, but the Swordfish can easily cut their net, and if they try to catch it with bare hands, they will get injured. If they avoid the attack, the Swordfish will crash into the rocks and self-destruct. The sword will break and the fish will quickly rot.
You’d have to be as good a fighter as Rita to catch that thing unharmed… that.
“This is it, fishermen! Get off the beach!
The captain of the regular soldiers shouted, and the soldiers came down to the beach.
I think it’s time.
The fishermen were all injured. They were lying on the ground bleeding from their arms and legs.
The soldiers held up their shields to protect the injured fishermen. The Swordfish collided with the shield and crumbled…
“This year’s ‘Swordfish’ fishing is over! You may as well give up and go home!”
“Damn it. This year was no good either. 10 Arsha a piece of high-class fish, I wonder if there’s any good way to catch them. The taste goes down when you use magic, what should I tell my wife…?”
Accompanied by the regular soldiers, the fishermen left.
After a while, the school of Swordfish disappeared…
The beach regained its tranquility.
“Does that mean my errand is a failure?
“That’s what I was saying. Give it up, Reggie.”
There were dead Swordfish lying on the beach. Every single one of them had a broken sword in their head from jumping out of the water with such force. Their eyes were completely white. Their gills were dark red. Their bellies were swollen and bulging. Their fins were squishy and twisted, and their bodies were emitting an unidentifiable steam.
Some hit fishermen, some crashed into rocks, and some hit the shields of regular soldiers.
Aine would be mad at us if we bring back something like this…
“I wonder what it tastes like, Swordfish.”
“People say the sword part of the head is the best part.”
“I hear it’s got a lot of fat on it.”
“I want Aine to make some sashimi from it.”
“What is ‘Sashimi’?”
“It is a dish where fish are cut and eaten raw. But I am afraid of getting food poisoning just before our trip, so no sashimi. Grilled or boiled fish would be safer.”
“I don’t understand, but would it have made the other slaves respect me if I had brought a Swordfish back?”
“Maybe. I also wanted to try a high-class fish from this world.”
“Yes, it is shameful that I cannot fulfill the Master’s wish!”
Splash
Reggie hit the surface of the water with a rod that the fishermen had left behind.
Splash, Splash, Splash!
“Stop it. What if another school comes?”
“Then Master can just catch them.”
“I can’t do that.”
The Swordfish’s weapon is a sword in its head. It is hard and fragile.
To catch them, we have to neutralize them without destroying their sword.
They can cut nets, shields will break their swords. If we use magic, we might be able to catch it, but I heard that it would taste bad.
Which means if we want to catch them for food, we need to disable them without breaking their sword…
… Huh?
“I think I can do …”
I should have realized this sooner.
So, with my and Reggie’s skills, we could have caught those guys…
What a waste. I guess I’ll have to put the experiment off until the next school of Swordfish arrives.
“Master.”
“Hmm?”
“Here comes the second school.”
Reggie was waist-deep in water, struggling to hit the surface.
A few dozen meters from her, a silvery fin swayed.
Peeking out of the water was a silver sword.
It was definitely a school of Swordfish.
“The fishermen said that the tide changed due to the appearance of the Sea Dragon, didn’t they?”
Apparently, that brought in a second school.
They were fewer in number, but they were firmly caught up in Reggie’s provocation.
“Come!”
I grabbed Reggie’s collar as she held out her hands in a “dare” kind of way and toss her straight back.
“What are you doing, Master?”
Reggie rolled around on the beach and got up, covered in sand.
“That’s my line. Do you want to die?”
“This body is an imitation made with mana. Even if it falls apart, as long as my main body is still alive, I can regenerate in about ten years!”
“Still not good.”
“What’s more important, the fish or a slave’s body?”
“My common sense dictates my slave’s body.”
I can’t help it.
Since Reggie was trying her best to fulfill the errand that Aine asked her to do, I as her Master should help her out a bit.
I want to see if I can use my skills to catch fish, too.
“You wouldn’t complain if we take back some high-class fish, would you?”
“That’s not all. I have to help as well!”
“All right. Then help me.”
I pulled out the cursed sword Reggie that I carried on my back.
“Wait behind me, Reggie. I’ll use your body to catch some fish.”
“… Master.”
Reggie was sitting on the beach, staring at me blankly.
All the fishermen and regular soldiers had gone home, and there was no one around.
“And I’d like to try some of this world’s high-class fish as well.
I held up my sword - the fish were coming.
The Swordfishes swimming in battle slapped the surface of the water with their huge fins and jumped. The silvery body of the fish floated up into the air. They were large flying fish. They were also highly intelligent. Their angle and speed were perfect, and they were aiming for my heart.
But that makes it easy to read their movements.
“[Flowing Swordsmanship LV 1], Activate!”
Shing
The blade of the cursed sword Reggie caught the sword of the Swordfish’s head.
I deflected the enemy’s straight-line assault upward.
The Swordfish jumped up diagonally with its momentum, spun around above my head…
As it was, it quickly fell headfirst onto the beach.
Bida-bida-bida-bida-bida-bida!
The Swordfish, stuck vertically in the sand, was struggling to move its fins.
But it sword was completely stuck in the sand. It couldn’t get its sword out. The Swordfish struck the air with its fins for a while, but then, as if it had run out of steam, it just slumped and stopped moving.
The sword in its head was caught by the sand. The fish’s body was also unharmed.
Its eyes were black, scales glossy and gills bright red.
It was an ideal fish to have for a meal.
“Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Master, that’s great!”
“Reggie, when it’s completely immobile, pull it up and put it in a backpack, sword up.”
“Yes, Master!”
After the first one, their assault began. Their aim was precise and unhindered.
I timed it right and activated my [Flowing Swordsmanship LV 1] and parried their assault.
Shing, Shing ,Shing!
Crunch, crunch, crunch.
The same thing occurred repeatedly.
Swordfish lined up on the beach with their swords stuck. They looked like silvery plants.
Flowing Swordsmanship LV 1
You can pass off damage dealt by enemies with your sword as if it were water.
I didn’t think it could be used for catching fish.
There were eight Swordfish sticking out of the sandy beach, more than enough for six people to eat.
I swung my sword at the sea five times to intimidate the others.
If this didn’t stop the remaining school from attacking, I was going to threaten them with the [Delayed Arts] but…
The school of fish stopped at the edge of the waves, as if they had sensed something abnormal.
I thought the Swordfish were looking at me with their swords sticking out of the water, but then they flipped over and went away.
Good.
Even if I catch any more, we won’t be able to eat them.
“Master, we have a great catch.”
Reggie was running around on the beach.
The Swordfish were gasping for air with their gills flapping. They didn’t seem to have the strength to attack anymore.
When Reggie stuffed them into her backpack, the tip of the sword sticks out of the backpack.
Carrying it, we decided to go back to the home so as not to be seen by too many people.
“Hmmm… you will successfully complete your first errand, Reggie.”
Holding the backpack with both hands, Reggie sneered.
“The maid girl will be amazed at Master and my power. I want to see the look on her face. Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!”
“Why do you both smell like fish?”
I was surprised.
As soon as Aine saw us back at the home, she handed us a cloth to wipe ourselves with and said.
“Both of you, take a bath before entering the living room.”
The bath at home takes a long time to heat up so, Reggie and I decided to go to a bathhouse in town.
On the way there, we stopped by the fish shop we had seen earlier and gave the lady a Swordfish as a thank you for information.
We told her that we had caught some that had wandered in after the fishermen left.
The lady was surprised, but said that it was too expensive for the amount of information she gave us, so she gave me a Arsha. Combined with the errand money Aine had given me, I had 4 Arsha. It was enough money to take a private bath at the bathhouse.”
That’s why.
“…Huh?” “Huuaaa…”
Reggie and I sat in the bathtub, back to back.
The human form of Reggie and the body of the sword are two sides of the same coin, and if the human form gets wet, the sword will be wet as well.
I don’t know if… it is convenient or inconvenient.
“So this is what it feels like to take a bath. It feels good.”
“How are you feeling, Reggie?”
Of course, I will reward you fairly for your work.
Since, Reggie can’t eat I decided to pay for her as well.
It was a shame that she couldn’t taste the fish she had caught, so she asked me to at least take a bath.
“You can’t taste, but you are saying the bath feels good.”
“That’s easy. A sword has no mouth. But it feels good when it’s clean and polished.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes, it is.”
I can’t help it if that’s what it is.
Reggie is shorter than Cecile. Her head was just below my shoulders. Her wet red hair was swaying in the water. Her white skin had turned pink, and she was moving as if she’s breathing normally. She looked no different from a human. She’s a strange cursed sword, isn’t it? This thing…
“Thank you, Master.”
“Why?”
“For teaching me.”
Reggie raised her hand so that I could see it. Then she broke her fingers and started counting things.
“For teaching me the joy of being dominated, the functions of a girl’s body, a new name, for allowing to fight alongside you all times and treating me equally like you treat your other slaves. And you are currently teaching me how to bath. Thank you, Master, for teaching me so many things.”
“I see. You’ve always been hidden as a treasure, haven’t you?”
“That’s right. When I was in the hands of the Kings, I was kept in the depths of the castle as a hidden treasure. When I was not in the King’s hands, I was either wandering the dungeons or being hated as a cursed sword of destruction.”
“That’s because you use were a pervert.”
“I can’t help it, I’ve always been that way. If you have a problem with that, tell it to the one who summoned me from the another world.”
“… what did you think your role was?”
“I had no right to choose. A sword is for cutting enemies. My skills were the same, just another function to be used.”
Reggie scooped up some hot water in her palm and chucked it down.
It was as if she was checking each sensation.
Reggie’s eyes in the steam looked like she was about to start crying.
“But now I regret it, because I wish I had met you sooner … So, as a way of atonement, I want you to use me up.”
Reggie turned around and looked over her shoulder at me.
“That’s about all I can ask for, Master.”
“I need you, Reggie.”
The only person who can withstand my [Delayed Arts] is the cursed sword Reggie.
Sometimes her knowledge can be useful, too.
And I’m pretty sure that even Reggie is a member of the party.
“You will work by my side as long as I am alive. But I don’t want you to work in the black, so I’ll let you do whatever you want. That’s about all I can do for you.”
“I don’t want much. That’s about right for me.”
“After I’m gone, you can do whatever you want. You don’t have to die after me.”
“All right. Then I will spend the rest of my life telling your children about your tsundere ways before you die.”
“…On second thought, I don’t mind you following me.”
What is she going to pass down to me after I’m gone?
Splash
Behind me, I could feel Reggie standing up.
A small hand touched my shoulder.
“It can’t be helped, for a cursed sword is incapable of producing offspring! I’ll tell them about Master instead.”
Don’t be absurd.
I could only bitterly smile at her absurd words.
Behind me, I could see that Reggie was covering her mouth and laughing, too.
After that, we didn’t talk.
We quickly got out of the bath and decided to head home.
Incidentally, the “Swordfish” that Aine made for us for dinner was so delicious that I was in awe…
Standing on a chair, Reggie struck a mysterious pose with a smug look on her face, as she was being applauded by her fellow slaves.
