Chapter 106

Shion takes out the necklace and takes a closer look.

Compared to Harnette’s necklace, it had the exact same shape.

In addition, the necklace contained not only Hannett’s magic power, but also Brecht’s flame.

“… Sister, is there a reason you chose this?”

“What did you say to me then? Oh, yes. It is said to drive away bad luck and bring good fortune. I gave it the same meaning.”

“Does it have any other meaning?”

“Did you say it was the same? What did you do with this necklace?”

“I put magic into it. He said he would help whenever needed.”

Shion muttered softly as he looked back at his memories.

I was worried about Hannett, but I hoped it would go as it should.

That’s why he carved the magic of Acid Rain into his necklace, and he was able to help Harnett whenever he needed it.

As a result, the necklace he presented became an unbreakable promise and a way to protect Hanette.

“Honestly, I don’t know if that necklace will help you. It might be better to present something else. But… I really wanted to give it to you. As you.”

Harnette uttered the last word pitifully and lowered her gaze.

It was a reason that even laughing at it seemed excessive.

I just wanted to imitate Shion and wanted to create a similar atmosphere, so I chose the same gift.

But even if Shion had that necklace, he wouldn’t be able to use it as usefully as he did.

“So… You mean it’s a gift for me?”

“It’s right for you, but I wonder if it will help… … .”

“Should I always carry it with me?”

“You don’t have to. It’s different from the necklace you gave me.”

“It is not different. What did your sister just say?”

“Well… uh… Doesn’t that help?”

“Not that.”

“Is the other better?”

“Go back a little further.”

“Wanted to give like you?”

“Yeah, that. Didn’t you think the same as me? You should be grateful.”

Shion fiddled with the necklace, then put it on his neck.

An unfamiliar sensation seemed to stir around his neck.

How did Hannett endure this sensation?

“… This is subtly inconvenient.”

“You know that now? How uncomfortable do you think I must have been?”

“Are you still uncomfortable?”

“I don’t feel anything right now. If you wear it around, you’ll get used to it soon, right?”

“But it’s a necklace… I should wear it around my neck.”

Shion looks down at the necklace as he trims his collar.

Harnett’s magic was still engraved on the necklace.

In addition, since the magical power of Brecht, the magic sword of flame, is mixed, shouldn’t it be regarded as having its own symbolism?

“But how did you get this? I’ve never seen my sister buy anything.”

“I secretly asked for it. I didn’t want you to find out.”

“… Oh, to Cardinal Selena?”

“Yeah, he said he would put his magic power in and send it to me. That’s why it’s in my hands now.”

“… … ?”

Shion tilted his head and put his hand on the necklace.

A paladin must infuse an object with the magical power of the Holy Law before it is recognized as a sacred object.

Of course, putting magic into an object is not something anyone can do, and if it was a cardinal’s magic, the price was bound to go up.

In addition, if Enrite, who is also a Setinos quasar, had made the holy relic, it would have a higher value.

“Really. I can feel the magical power of Cardinal Selena.”

“Why did you notice that now?”

“I couldn’t feel anything except for sister’s magical power.”

“yes?”

Hanette was puzzled and put her hand on Shion’s necklace.

He felt his own magical power first, and after concentrating, he was finally able to find Enrite’s magical power.

Even when he first saw the holy relic, Enrite’s mana flowed out, but why was he pushed aside by his own mana?

“Why is this? I put enough… … .”

“I brought you something expensive. Did they give you the same money?”

“I barely gave you what I didn’t want to receive.”

“30 gold coins?”

“yes.”

“I should have received more than that.”

“Why?”

“It’s got Cardinal Selene’s magic.”

“… Is it also a Cetinos quasar?”

“right. Original price… Wouldn’t it be between 60 and 100 gold coins?”

“Isn’t that too expensive?”

“Still, there are many people who want to save it. My sister was easily obtained using her personal connections.”

“… … .”

Harnette swallowed silence and looked at Shion’s necklace.

Since he did not know anything about the holy relics or holy water, he only gave the amount he had heard from Shion.

However, Enrite did not want to accept even that, and said that she would inscribe her magic on her own.

The word network seemed to reach deep into my heart.

“Does this make you think I was wrong?”

“It’s not even wrong. You said you weren’t going to take the money?”

“I thought that was the original price… … .”

“Don’t worry too much. He must have received that because he thought of his sister. If I wanted to give more, I think I wouldn’t have gotten it.”

“no. i’ll have to give it to you later It’s not like I don’t have money.”

“… I think I’m writing too little. You say you need to buy a house later?”

“You can earn more later.”

“Can you find another treasure like that?”

“That… yeah… maybe you can save Even if you don’t have it, wouldn’t it be better to earn more?”

Shion laughs and says nothing.

Hannette did have something called pride and conviction.

If it’s not a wrong judgment, shouldn’t it be done according to that will?

“I don’t know if I can’t buy a house until I die of old age.”

“Hey! Do you think spending more on that will make it impossible to buy a house?”

“It is not difficult to live. The question is what to do after that. If we want to create an environment like this, it will cost that much… … .”

“I know. That’s why you’re raising money now.”

“It wouldn’t make any difference.”

“Sigh… Do you just want to be a housekeeper? Doesn’t the mansion, employees, and enlisted men all come with it?”

“I don’t know how many times I have said this. Isn’t that what you want to be?”

“Did you tell me? Even if I’m late, you can There is no one better than you!”

“Well… … .”

Shion is immersed in troubles with a grave expression on his face.

There might be a way for Harnette to take over the head of household, but I didn’t know if Robbins would do that.

Harnette had been criticized for being called a foolish young lady, and was belatedly erasing the traces.

In addition, it was not common for a noble lady to succeed to a title, so she might have tried to follow the custom.

‘If you think about the current king or the head of the royal knights, it wouldn’t be impossible at all… … .’

At this point, he wondered if he would have a higher chance of becoming the head of the household than Hanette.

After living as an ordinary aristocrat, he suddenly became a swordsman, and recently extinguished one of the four major disasters.

Since Barhen would marry the 3 princesses and enter the royal palace, it would have to be seen that he had virtually no competitors.

‘Do I have to become the head of household even for Hanette’s sake?’

* * *

The capital of the kingdom of Alain, near the outskirts.

The outskirts were in contact with the wall, and there were not many people coming and going.

In the first place, the shopping district was not even formed, and only the soldiers of the garrison roamed around it.

Compared to the mansions near the palace, the house price was cheap, so the poor were coming to live here.

‘Why is the Demonic Sword of Light here?’

Oz was secretly approaching the place where the Demonic Sword of Light was.

In the meantime, I just quietly hid until the wound on my left arm healed.

I wondered if I should give up sealing the magic sword, but I was able to return to the capital after recalling my will to become stronger.

‘… I shouldn’t run into Shion Regard.’

The dark purple sword that flew towards him was still imprinted in his mind.

If he had prepared properly and hit back, he might have blocked the sword.

Maybe I could have avoided it quickly and ran away beyond the white space.

However, it was only a guess, and if you experienced it one more time, you could lose your life in a second.

‘Someday we have to fight… I don’t have the confidence to win.’

The swordsman exchanged even once, the fiercely forged swordsmanship, and the gaze that glared at him.

He had already glimpsed that level, and he could also see what feelings Shion Reggieard had for him.

If he did a surprise attack, he would have a slight chance of winning, but if he went head-to-head, he would lose.

‘Even Hanette Adela didn’t look weak.’

Harnette Adelaira poured out a vast amount of mana and spread flames towards herself.

He probably would have blocked his attack somehow even if Shion Reggieard hadn’t stepped up.

Most of all, because he didn’t take out his magic sword, it seemed like he was hiding his original skills.

‘Who is holding the magic sword of light?’

It was already known who used the other demonic swords.

However, the magic sword of light only felt its existence, and it had yet to meet its user.

In addition, since the demonic sword of the wind disappeared at some point, it was only assumed that it had escaped from the capital.

‘I was close by. I think we know each other.’

As Oz hurriedly ran away at the time, he even noticed that the demonic sword of light was approaching.

Perhaps it was a surprise attack in the middle of the gathering of four demonic sword users.

In addition, since he exposed his existence to three people, it would become more difficult to seal the demonic sword.

‘… It could be a trick.’

Leaving the user of the magic sword of light alone and inducing him to surprise himself.

After that, other demonic sword users would appear and try to take a pincer attack.

However, I couldn’t feel the energy of the other demonic swords, and the demonic sword of light was still there.

‘Should I check it for a second?’

La Blair only reveals its energy when it contains its magical energy.

In other words, the magic sword user could not detect his presence until the battle.

Even if they were discovered, they would have to quickly seal the demonic sword or run away beyond the white space.

‘Is anyone there?’

Oz entered the high-walled mansion.

There was no presence, and there was a shady yet calm atmosphere.

The deeper they penetrated, the stronger the energy emitted by the demonic sword of light flowed out.

“… Did you come?”

Oz didn’t even look surprised and summoned La Blair.

In front of the shabby mansion stood someone in white armor.

He was holding a sword in each hand, and they were all things he was looking for.

‘I’m using the magic sword of light and the magic sword of wind at the same time.’

Oz swallows dry saliva and steps slowly.

Clearly, he hadn’t felt the demonic sword of the wind until just a while ago.

Besides, I had never heard of a single person wielding two swords.

“As expected, you… … .”

Enrite suppressed the trembling that came from his left hand and raised the two demonic swords.

The demonic sword of wind, Timer, was shaking violently and communicating.

Referring to the explanations from the three people, that intruder must have been the enemy aiming for the demonic sword.

‘That person is qualified.’

Enritte looks at Oz in agony.

I couldn’t kill the intruder like this.

Shouldn’t it be conciliated with an ally after first stealing the artificial magic sword?

‘Shion Regard will come. Traces of acid rain remain… I’ll have to put up with that much.’
