The moment he saw this scene, Allen's eyes were wide open.
　There was a swarm of swords there, as if to say, "Even the armorer is not alone.

　Moreover, all of them were at least master swords.
　In addition, the habits found in those swords are all identical.

　In other words, the same person had struck all of the hundreds of swords.

　What kind of person could have created this?
　It was then that Allen gulped and cleared his throat, and the sound that had been going on stopped.

Ah, the sound has stopped. I was wondering how I could call you, but it didn't seem necessary. But ...... was just the right time, or did you notice the customer and stop it?　I would like to see Noel's growth: ......
Isn't that unlikely?　I'm sorry to say, but I honestly don't think she's going to grow in that direction.
I know you're at .......

　I've always suspected that they were, but they seem to be acquainted with the owner of this place.
　And he seems to be vaguely familiar to me.

　I wondered what kind of person he was really.

What--what are they saying?

　I reflexively turned my gaze to a voice from the back and couldn't believe my eyes for a moment at the figure there.

'Is that Noel?　That was fast, wasn't it?

　There was a girl.
　She had heady golden eyes, but what bothered me most were her ears.

　Longer and sharper than those of the human species, they were definitely the mark of an elf.

That's where the workshop is now. It helps me to hear you all better.
"Hmm?　Does that mean you noticed us and stopped working?
"No way. It was just a coincidence. So, I was finishing up and trying to get a breath, and I heard you guys.
"So our words are still true: ......
Oh, you didn't know?　You can't say anything bad about someone, even if it's true, you know?
...... Really, it's amazing how little has changed.
You look different on the outside, but you're still the same on the inside. ...... By the way, should I leave him alone there?
"Huh?　Oh, that was it. ......!

　And to Allen, who was watching the girl herself and her conversation with great interest, three pairs of eyes were immediately turned on.
　The girl's eyes narrowed a moment ago, perhaps to observe us, and while thinking about it, Leeds' head is lowered.

I'm sorry, Mr. Allen. I didn't even introduce you to ......
"No, that's not a problem. ...... Leeds, you have a friend?
"...... Mr. Allen, I feel like you just said something very rude to me too?

　With those words, Leeds gave him a jittery look, but Allen shrugged his shoulders.
　That might have been a bad way to say it, but what I wanted to say remained as it was.

You used to say that you didn't have any friends.

　She's the first princess.
　That's why she "can't" make friends.
　She's not allowed to make them.
　You will be able to find out more about the fact that you are able to get the most out of your own personal life.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on in the world and what's going on in the world.
　You're going to be able to find out what you can do with it.

　You're going to be able to find out what the reason was, and what the situation was, but it means that you've made a friend.

Well, I'm glad to hear that's not the case anymore.
"Well, let's see, ......, you remembered all that stuff from so long ago?
It was pretty impressive. That's when I thought I could stand by your side and support you. Yeah, of course that's still true now, right?
"Well, uh, thank you for that ......?

　You will be able to see that you are not the only one who can do this, but you will also be able to laugh and shrug your shoulders again, wondering why the questionable system.
　It's not something to be thanked for, since it's something I want to do.

It's a good thing that you're not going to be able to have to worry about the fact that you're not going to have to worry about the fact that you're not going to have to worry about the fact that you're not going to have to worry about it.
No, I didn't really know who Beatrice was at the time, and it was just a figure of speech, you know?
I mean, could you stop flirting in people's homes?　Or was it just to show off that I came all the way out here today?　I'm going to beat you out?
I'm not flirting, and I have a proper errand to run: ......!

　While her cheeks are red, Rees lets out a cough as she divides it up, saying so.
　Then, we began to introduce each other for the time being.

Well ...... Noel, this is Mr. Allen. Allen, that's Noel over there. As you probably already know, I'm a blacksmith here.
"...... is a little too cursory in its introduction, don't you think?

　It's just the way it is, although Allen thought so too, but that's about it.
　And it's also annoying to be introduced in detail in front of him.

It's not a situation where you have to be introduced to each other on a regular basis, so it's fine.　And if there's anything we need to do, we can check it out on our own afterwards.
...... I'm not so sure about that either. So what can I do for you?


"Yes, this is Mr. Allen, who strikes his sword in the--
I'll say no.
I'd like to have it, eh, ......?　Um, Noel ......?
"Didn't you hear?　I said no?

　It was a curt reply.
　Rather than showing a moment's hesitation, it was a one-sided refusal in the middle of a word.
　It was even something that could be taken as a rejection, depending on your point of view.

　As if that was too unexpected, a look of confusion appears on Rees' face.

"Well, let me ask you ......, well, why?
You will be able to find out the best way to get the most out of your new business. ...... You have always been a picky eater, but you would never unreasonably refuse a customer. It's true that this was a friendship, but you know it was a legitimate request. But if you still refuse without question, ...... you were working on it a while ago, and now you're in the middle of a jam.
...... I don't like it when you return it calmly like that. To be honest, you're harder to deal with than Leeds.
I'll take that as a compliment. The lack of the Lord's help is what a squire is supposed to do.
Totally ...... but you're right. I'm too busy right now to take on any other commitments.
"Muu ...... could have said that from the beginning, couldn't you have just said that?
"No, it's too much trouble. The result is the same, so why should I tell you?
"I'm not with you. ......!

　And once again, the exchange with Allen aside, began to take place, but Allen was watching the exchange with great interest.
　You can see that they are friends just by looking at this kind of exchange.

　You'll be able to get a feel for her personality, and it's because she's a completely different type of person from Leeds that they've become friends.
　You can also find that Leeds' reactions are a little different than when talking to you and Beatrice, which is refreshing and interesting.

I mean, why should you care about me?　There are other blacksmiths here, and there are other ways to buy swords. The people who come here are all very different from each other, and I think the easiest and least troublesome way to get one is to go to a weapons store.
"Is that by any chance your way of introducing yourself?
Shut up, I'm aware of that. Isn't that why you're telling me to go somewhere else?
Mmmm ...... but that's not good enough!　I want you to use the best sword you can, Allen, and Noel is the best blacksmith I know who can strike a sword: ......!
I wonder if ...... is being silly or a compliment?
I'm serious: ......!
Excuse me, I'm serious too, okay?　To begin with, he already has a sword.

　As you say this, you feel the gaze directed to your own waist, and you wonder if that's one of the reasons you seem unwilling to do it.
　It is true that Allen has been holding a broken sword in his waistband, hoping to provide some kind of check.

　Some blacksmiths might not like that, trying to find a new sword when there is still a working one.

"No, it's broken or broken. So I was looking for a new one.
"Folded ......?　Then I'd rather not. I don't know what you used it for, but I don't know what you would have done with it that would have broken your sword.

　In the middle of saying the words, the behavior stopped.
　Its eyes widened and the gaze on the sword at its waist intensified.

　It's as if it was startled by something that it realized.

"Hey ...... Allen, did I say?　Can I see that broken sword?
"Hmm?　What's wrong with that?

　There was no particular reason for refusal, so I removed the scabbard from my waist and gave it to her.
　She--Noel takes it with both hands with surprising care, then grabs the hilt with her right hand and slowly pulls it out.
　Then the sword appeared, and it was snapped off spectacularly from the middle.

　It would probably be impossible for any expert to recreate it.
　That's because the sword is completely dead.

　Noel, who had been staring at the sword, closed his eyes for a moment as if in a silent prayer and then slowly put it back in its scabbard.
　Then, in the eyes that turned to me, I felt a kind of heat that existed, as if she had made up her mind to do something.

　And then.

"...... I've changed my mind. I'll give you a sword.
"What, really: ......!
"Yes, but before that I would like to ask you one question. But first, I want to ask you one question, if that's okay?
"What?
Are you interested in a sword beyond the Holy Sword?

　He looked straight at me and said that.
