Episode 163
“Even if you really stole it, you can’t say that you stole it. What woman in the world would want to receive stolen goods as her first gift from her boyfriend… …
“Luiin. “Isn’t this a very precious ring?”
“… … Ruin. “Do you have any presents for me?”
I lightly ignored Jason’s words and only looked at Irene.
“Next time I’ll give you a much better gift. “Be sure to obtain it in a normal way!”
He clenched his fists and opened his eyes wide as if asking me to trust him.
This is like a kind of resolution.
That I will never let tears come to your eyes.
That I will never let a drop of water get on my hands for the rest of my life.
Don’t lie, which is common between lovers… … .
really.
“Puhup.”
Although Irene was a little taken aback, she seemed to find my reaction cute in its own way and smiled, pouting her lower lip.
“The first gift I received was a stolen item… … . thank you. Thanks to you, I will never forget it.”
“To be exact, it was an item that was won at an auction using stolen money, but it wouldn’t be an excuse if I tried to make an excuse.”
“The ring used by the cold wizard Iskus… … . I heard it disappeared and I wondered where it had gone, but it was hidden underground.
“There it was.”
Irene smiled brightly and held out her hand to me.
He meant to put a ring on it, and I slipped the ring onto the second finger of my left hand.
It was a man’s ring, so it was a little loose at first.
As with any other artifact, it was soon worn on Irene’s finger.
Irene looked around at the ring she was wearing and smiled brightly.
“Hmm, I really like it, don’t you?”
The magic Irene is most confident in is ice magic, so I thought of Irene as soon as I saw it.
thank god.
I really like it.
At that time, Jason came up next to me.
“Hey, Ruin.”
“why?”
He cleared his throat and spoke as if embarrassed.
“Hmm. When I thought about it carefully… … . I don’t think it’s bad. What if it’s stolen property? Anyway, he’s a bad thief
It was stolen from them. This is a kind of reward and trophy. In a war of death and death, you wouldn’t criticize the victorious country for robbing the warehouse of the defeated country, right? is not it?”
“so?”
“… … “Do you have any presents for me?”
Then yes.
Jason glanced at me with eyes full of anticipation.
I shrugged my shoulders at Jason.
“Of course I prepared.”
“Really?”
“then. Are you sure I forgot your gift? wait.”
“also! After all, it’s my friend Ruin! yes? There’s no way you’ll ever forget my gift to your best friend… … yes? what’s this?”
I smiled and read a thick old book that was well over 1,000 pages long.
I handed over “Class 5, Understanding Classical Magic.”
As soon as he saw the thickness of the book, which made him sigh, Jason’s face hardened.
“Eh… … . Ruin, don’t play around… …
“you. Is this a much more precious book than it looks? “It’s a book that details the quickest route to reach class 5, but it’s an expensive book that you can’t get because it’s not available among wizards.”
“Well, it’s still a book… … . This is it… … ? My, my artifact… …
“This is the artifact you really need.”
Jason Damon.
He trained with an indomitable will and had reached class 4 as promised.
This is an achievement so great that you can imagine how much effort the lazy Jason has put in over the past few months.
But, shouldn’t it be at least ‘Class 5’?
From this perspective, “r5 Class, Understanding Classical Magic” would be an excellent guide that Jason would have to pay hundreds of millions of dollars to obtain… … .
Perhaps because he was expecting a great artifact that would instantly increase his abilities, Jason lowered his head.
But, fortunately, Jason is not the type to get discouraged by things like this.
“Tsk tsk tsk…” … . Next is class 5.”
He held the book tightly in his arms and smiled as if he had lost his mind, igniting his fighting spirit.
“Okay, Ruin. Then can you make me one promise? When I become a 5th class wizard, I will give you a new gift like Irene.
Crossroads. If possible, an artifact similar to Irene’s.”
I don’t know why I have to make such a promise.
But, I nodded.
There are plenty of useful items for wizards, and if this can motivate Jason, that would be even better.
“okay.”
“Great! “I’ll use this book to get you through class 5 in the shortest amount of time.”
Jason did not hide his burning greed.
“Jason. “Then, if you become a Class 5 wizard, will you meet my daughter?”
“Oh, well, you’re too old! “Ajumma’s daughter is not a sister to me, but more like an aunt to me!”

“It’s probably my mom, not my aunt.”
“huh? That’s who you know!”
“Hehehehe!”
He received enthusiastic courtship from the residents of the territory.
I think so.
It is certain that Jason will sooner or later meet and marry an older, more attractive woman who holds him back tightly.
I can definitely feel it.
“Ruina.”
“••••••huh?”
“Take this.”
After that, the stolen goods I had swept up in Derinkuyu had time to turn into ‘gifts’.
“But what day is today? Receive a gift
“The days have passed.”
“What day is it? “Just take it.”
Ruina took the sword I gave her and mumbled while looking at the sword body.
“light… … . very.”
“yes?”
Then, it has to be light.
The sword I gave to Ruina.
《Hero grade weapon》
《Jenny Grasil》
《A treasured sword created in the hands of Maktu, the leader of the Maetel Manor.》
《Use is restricted due to the covenant.》
《It can only bring out 50% of the sword’s power.》
The treasured sword I won for 50,000 gold, my Nigrasil.
However, if I erase the oath bound to this sword through my spiritual power.
《Jenni Grasil》
《It is made of ‘white lotus iron’ that has been handcrafted by craftsmen, making it lighter than a regular iron sword, but more durable.》
《Can bring out 200% of the user’s aura.》
《Skill and barrier are permanently enchanted. It activates intermittently.》
It is reborn as a great sword, comparable to the national sword.
” wow••••••
Ruina likes Zenigrasil.
It seemed like he had it, but I asked if it was a bit burdensome.
“Brother, can I receive a sword like this?”
“Why do you think not?”
“As you know… … . “The people who really need a good sword are strong knights like Lord Bolvar and Hanson.”
“are you okay. “I have a separate sword to give to Hanson.”
“B-but… …
At that time, Lord Bolvar spoke with a wide smile.
“Miss, it’s okay. “It’s a sword I don’t need.”
“Really?”
“Can I listen to you for a moment?”
Lord Bolvar elegantly knelt down on one knee, met Ruina’s gaze, and asked.
Miss Ruina Ardel, the rose female knight who protects Ardel, lightly lifted one side of her skirt and gracefully handed her the sword.
Lord Bolvar pulled out Zenigrasil’s sword and swung it in the air.
Sjeong-!
Even though it is only swung lightly, the sound of the wave tearing through the air is unusual.
“It’s a good sword. They used white lotus iron, which is lighter than regular iron but harder. “It is a famous sword that could never be made unless you were a blacksmith from Maetel Manor, a treasure trove of iron.”
Lord Bolvar, who guessed not only the sword’s material but also his birthplace, smiled mischievously and said,
“But it’s too light for me. “This is a sword for women who are relatively weak.”
“ah•… ”
“So it doesn’t suit Hanson either. In the case of Hanson, you actually have to train with a heavier and duller sword. So, it is a sword that is perfect for you to use. Please take it.”
“… … ah. Hmm, is that so, then?”
Ruina did not show her joy as much as possible and tried to emphasize that she had no choice but to receive it.
But you can’t fool the eyes of seasoned adults.
The eye shape has already changed into a half moon.
And the corner of his mouth keeps twitching.
“Do you like it that much?”
At my question, Ruina blushed as if she was embarrassed and nodded slowly.
Irene found Ruina so cute that she hugged her as if she was dying.
Hmm, this makes me a little jealous.
I asked Ruina, who couldn’t take her eyes off Zenigrasil.
“Right next week? “Noble swordsmanship competition.”
“huh? Yes.”
When I arrived at Ardel, I was told that Ruina’s sword competition was happening next week.
Just as wizards have a ‘great festival’.
For knights, there is a ‘Sword Grand Prix’.
This Sword Grand Prix, like the Grand Festival, is held for aspiring knights from all over the continent.
This is the Noble Swordsmanship Competition, a preliminary competition to select trainees who will participate as ‘representatives’ in the Sword Grand Prix.
Ruina participates here.
So, I decided to definitely give this sword.
“Are you confident?”
At my question, Ruina looked at Lord Bolvar.
Then he nodded with eyes full of ‘confidence’.
“of course.”
“really?”
“huh. Even though I couldn’t attend a formal ‘training center’, I learned swordsmanship from Lord Bolvar. So who
“Not even a crab loses.”
Everyone around her smiled at Ruina’s cute confidence.
After all, he is my younger brother.
I wiped my happy smile and asked Ruina as calmly as I could.
“Then, should you go with me too?”
“Where?”
“Swordsmanship competition.”
Then, Ruina asked back as if it was unexpected.
“… … “Your brother too?”
“huh. I might be anxious to send you alone… …
“Lord Bolvar agreed to come with us?”
“Hmm, wouldn’t it be safer to have at least one more person?”
“If you’re just bored and want to tag along, just say you want to tag along.”
Anyway, if you are quick-witted.
okay.
I heard that my only younger brother is participating in a sword fighting competition for the first time.
I do that because I want to.
why?
“Then let’s go together. “You too!”
“really? Are you inviting me too?”
“of course!”
So, an expedition team was formed to pray for the success of our Rose Knight, Miss Ruina, in the swordsmanship competition.
The members of the expedition are Sir Bolvar, me, and Irene.
The leader of the expedition is, of course, Ruina.
The destination is the capital of the kingdom.
This time, a light-hearted picnic
I’m thinking of leaving as soon as possible.
Esperanaja, Sky Mountain, Derin Kuyu… … .
I’ve been running so hard all this time.
I wish I could spend the rest of my life quietly and safely, just like I wish now… … .
“brother. “It’s okay to follow, but it’s not okay to get into trouble?”
Well, it won’t be easy.
yes?
