Hey, man, isn't this ...... weird?

　Nell asked with an uneasy look on her face as she tugged on the hem of her own clothes and looked around restlessly.

............ Nell.

"What, what?　With such a serious face--

Let's get married.

"What? Whoa, what's the matter, it's so sudden. ......

　She blushed and looked shyly up at me, and I continued to speak with a very serious expression on my face.

It's super cute. I want to take it home with me. I want to put it on display. That's great. Stay with me forever.

...... I'm really happy to hear you say that in a private place: ......

　Nell, reddened to the ears, glances over to her neighbor and says so.

　She was looking in the direction of the store's employee, who was looking at us with warm eyes.

　Oops, I shouldn't. She's too cute and a little out of control.

　Nell is a shy girl, you need to understand that.

"Okay, Nell. I'll make out with you when I get home. Put it on when you get home. And we'll have a viewing.

"What's the appreciation meeting? And, I mean, okay, I'll wear it later, Onii-san, I just want you to calm down for now. ...... That's right!　What happened to your tuxedo, man?

　I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to find a place to go on a tangent or not, but I'm sure I'm going to be able to find a place to go.

　--I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this.

　You're going to be able to find out more about the best way to get the most out of your new clothes.

　She is usually neat and clean, but adding a dress to her appearance is enough to make her look so destructive.

　If her normal Nell is "cute," then this Nell is "Tengenbukou!　My drill will pierce the heavens! It's so cute!

　I'm a little confused and I don't understand it myself.

I bought one that just fit me. Well, what do you care about my tuxedo? The women are probably the main attraction in these things.

　I don't care about the guy dressed up.

I don't think so, but ......, I would have loved to see you in your tuxedo. Are you not going to wear it today?

"Yeah, I had my size checked. And I don't like the formal wear. It's too stuffy and tight.

...... Okay, so when you get back to your room, you can wear your tuxedo too. Then I'll wear this dress too. I want to see you in your tuxedo, too.

Mmm ...... okay. --How long can you do this, sister?

　To my question, the employee's sister, still looking at me with warm eyes, replies without hesitation: "We will need about three hours of your time.

It'll take about three hours of your time. If you tell me where you're staying, I'll send it to you later.

Oh, no, I understand. Then I'll come back later. --Because, Nell. What do you say, later?

"Hmm ......, then, Onii-san, would you like to take a walk in the capital?　You said you wanted to visit King's Landing.

"Oh, that's a good suggestion. Let's get it done.


　　　* * *


　After leaving the dress and tuxedo we bought to fit our measurements, we left the store.

　Immediately there is a clamor in my ears, and in the middle of a busy street, Nell looks up at me and says, "Well then, Onii-san, do you have somewhere to go?

Do you have a place you'd like to go then, Onii-san?

Uh, I don't know what's in the King's Landing, so I don't know of any particular place I'd like to go to ......, but if there's a store that sells crafts or something like that, I might want to go there.

"Crafts?　I didn't know you liked that kind of thing, man.

No, I'm not particularly fond of it. But I make a lot of things by myself, so I want to get to know a lot of different designs, and I want to have more input.

　And while I gave ...... the ring to Leffi, I didn't give it to Liu and Nell because I missed the opportunity to do so.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make your life easier and more fun.

　So, I want to prepare rings for them, but I haven't decided whether to buy them or make them myself, so I want to take a look at them for future reference.

Oh, you often make a lot of weird stuff for the castle, don't you?

"Heh, it's not a weird thing! Listen, Nell. The inventions of the century are always made from things that the world considers junk. In other words, it is possible that each of the items I make is worth a fortune...

I've never seen anything you've made before. I've never seen anything you've made before, and it's amazing. Surely, there must be some inventions that everyone would know about.

"............ oh

　Her words were as if she was nursing a child, and I was feeling somewhat indecisive, but I couldn't say anything to the smiling Nell, so I shut up.



Let's go, man. There's a flea market down the street. I think you'll find a lot of artifacts like that.

Yeah, I need directions. ...... Uh, ho, ho, ho.

　I was a little embarrassed, but I reached out to the girl next to me.

　Sensing her intentions, Nell's cheeks turned slightly red and she grabbed my hand with a shy smile.

　--The two of us hold hands and walk through the hustle and bustle of the royal city.

　I can feel her body heat through my palm, and our shoulders occasionally touch.

　Just holding hands.

　But ...... it's so comforting, it warms your heart. 　

...... ...　

"?　What's up?

　When I asked Nell, who let out a small laugh, she seemed to be in a good mood as she replied, "I remember when I walked around the city with my brothers and sisters.

I remember the last time I walked around town with you guys. It's a good thing that you can't get away from the fact that you can't get away with it.

"Oh, ...... when we were touring the city of Alfiero. Well, that was fun, that time you were a bit of a goofball!

Oh, that's the fun part.

　You're not going to be able to get a good look at me.

You can't help but feel a little bit lecherous when you're with me, you know.　I enjoy being with you because I'm never bored.

I'm not at all happy to be told that, Onii-san.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you want to do with it. It's amazing.

　I cower at Nell's words.

You say that, but I think you're pretty much a civilian, don't you?

"Oh, yeah?　I think of myself as a category of people. ......

No, I don't think so. After all, you're a hero and now you're trying to marry the demon king. You're weird enough for a normal person.

"...... Huh, yeah, I guess so. Maybe I'm a crazy person, too.

　Nell's cheeks turned slightly red and she nodded with a happy expression.

"And, oh, oh, man, I'm over here!

"Copy that.

　Taking Nell's hand, I turned at a crossroads - and suddenly stopped.

"?　What's up, buddy?

　I stopped abruptly, and Nell looked up at me curiously.

It's a good thing that you're able to get a good idea of what you're looking for. ...... No, it's nothing. --It's not just the flea market, but the flea market, as I recall, is a street market, right?　Are there a lot of stalls out there?

"Yeah!　A lot of people would lay out a rug and set up a store there, selling things they had never seen before or things that were rare. So, you have some analysis skills, right?　And a very powerful one at that. Even if it's a mixed bag of stuff I'm selling, I thought you could tell the difference.

"Ho!　So you want me to use this demon king's eyes of truth to find the ball, right?　All right, I'll use my powers to find the best of the best!

Yes, please.

　A smiling face and a nod.

　I glanced (・・・・・) at the person (・・・・) watching me (・・・・・・・) and then (・・・・・) at the person (・・・・・・), but without doing anything in particular, she took me through the city.
