Another side

"Such a thing could be ......

　Once Kaido contacted them, Katsura and Minami came to the party room that evening.
　Kaido chose his words to convey the seriousness of the situation as much as possible with less of his usual cheerful mood.
　Speaking of the two of them telling Amelia's situation and what Jiro had said about their resolve, Katsura seemed to Kaido to be undecided as to what to do, as befits his age.
　And speaking of the other one, Minami.

Hmm~

　I'm seriously worried.
　Even though he knew that Jiro was busy and that he would be coming later, Kaido was honestly having a hard time dealing with this reaction, knowing that Minami would have this reaction.
　He was expecting an immediate response from the tension, and was even wondering how to appease her.
　Contrary to his expectations, he was thinking seriously as he re-examined himself.

"To tell the truth, I want to go help Amie right away, that I do.
That's right.

　Kaido knows that the ladies of this party are close for some reason.
　They don't look like each other, but sometimes you'd think they were sisters.
　Kitamiya, the eldest daughter and organizer, Minami, a troublemaker but a mood-maker, and Amelia, the youngest, who is adored by them.
　Kitamiya and Minami often clash, but they are close enough to each other to fight and have no intention of hurting the other.
　That's why they've been able to continue working together like this.

But I understand what the leader says, that I do. I didn't expect to go to war either, that I did.

　And although at first glance it seems that Minami is acting on the spur of the moment, in fact, she is the best at controlling her emotions.
　She is exquisitely good at finding the right amount of emotions to express without any problems.
　It may be surprising to her that she is a half-recluse who finds human relations troublesome, if not repellent, but in the case of Minami, the order is reversed.
　It's not that she's half-reclusive because she finds relationships troublesome, but because she's sensitive to other people's emotions and knows what emotions to feel, and that's why she knows them so deeply and becomes troublesome.
　Simply put, Minami was insightful.
　It was the same for Kaido, and he had a vague idea of what to expect.
　In his case, it was something he'd learned from having to keep track of relationships in a black company and dealing with bosses who had a short temper and how short-tempered they were.
　But I'm secretly impressed with your ability to control your emotions to this degree.

But that's all right. Yes, Kaido, I'm going to help Amie, that I am.
"Huh?
"No, Minami?　You don't have to decide so easily.　See, even if I say it's not much, I still have a little time.

　But that assessment was soon overturned.
　It was also revised not downward but upward.
　How could Katsu decide so easily, and his childhood friend, who should have known how he could decide so easily, appears as if he were a stranger.
　Kaido tells you to think again to stop Minami from making a decision so easily after the long discussion earlier.

"It's not a problem, that it is, and I'm sure I won't change my mind.

　Regardless of Kaido's concerns, Minami's answer to her decision was simple and unchanged.
　Compared to Kitamiya, who had been expressing her emotions earlier, Kaido understood that she had thought it through and made up her mind.

''I, or maybe I should just talk normally for now. I like the atmosphere here.

　So, it's bewildering to see Minami speaking normally, even from Katsu's point of view, it's been a long time.
　You will be able to get a good idea of what to expect when you go out.

You're going to be able to find out the best way to make your life easier. I think so.

　If not, neither Kaido nor Masaru would be able to come up with a denial.
　Minami's words are chosen as if to tell herself still, or to make sure that she is not lying about her resolve.

I can move forward to protect a place where I can be myself and enjoy myself honestly.

　She did not use the word "blood", but they feel as if she said she could do even that.
　There is no one here who doubts their resolve any longer.

...... Hey!　It's embarrassing, that it is!　Seriousness is not for me, that it is not for me!

　The air is so crisp and tight that it is relaxed by Minami, who has returned to her former self.
　It's a good idea to have a good time with your friends.
　You're going to be able to get a good idea of what you're going to do, while being aware of the various emotions involved, such as not being defeated or not being able to do it, Kaido wondered what he was going to do.

"South, I'm...
"Stop, that it is. You should think twice about winning, that I should.
Yes, I want to think about it now, too. We'll think about it together.
"Eh, Kaido-senpai is thinking, that?　Does it bother you?
"Excuse me?　Even I think a little bit!　I have my own problems!
"Really?

　The first thing you can do is to get the right amount of time and effort.
　As for Katsu, he felt impatient with the fact that his childhood friend, who was always with him and thought he was useless without him, was about to move on alone.
　I always told her to be independent, but recently, the only time she would talk about it was when she was neglecting her chores.
　Other than that, he rarely spoke about it anymore.
　You'll be able to find a lot of people who will be able to help you.

"I am...

　I never said what to do and the rest of the story never came up again.
　Looking back, there were many opportunities to act for the south.
　It's not so much about acting for oneself, but rather about what to do.
　You will be able to find out the best way to make the most of your time and money.

It's true!


"What for example?

　Let's respect the choice of our childhood friends.


　Another side END


　In a space smaller than the training grounds, but still large, Himik and I stood surrounded by the Giant.

"Sorry, Himik.
"Sure, I'm happy to have the Lord's help.

　A variety of weapons and armor that would have been brought in from the warehouse.
　There are several female giants busily moving about trying to fit them to Himik.
　The female giants are horrified by the presence of a fallen angel, but their hands are precisely measuring Himik's measurements.
　Watching the scene, I talk with her.
　Her help is absolutely necessary to rescue Amelia.
　But my common sense tells me that asking a woman who's more favored than a squire to follow me to war is offensive.
　That's why it's a relief when she smiles honestly and tells you not to worry about it, but on the other hand, you feel bad that you're taking advantage of her favor.

It would be best if I could protect you. As a man.

　Although there is no smoking in the store, I did not want to smoke in front of the craftsmen and Himik who were preparing the equipment for me.
　I'm watching Himik, who is at the center of the giants' movements, taking measurements and deciding what equipment to use.

It's okay!　The Lord will eventually surpass me!　Let me assure you of that!

　I'm not sure what to expect from you, but I'm sure you'll be happy with the results.
　I'm not sure if I can save Amelia, but Himikku's words make me want to do my best.

"Hey, Jiro. What about the armor, but what about the weapons?　If you want to make a special--
You don't need a cursed magic sword or anything like that.
"f*ck. You got it?
You always do it so much.
It's no use. You don't see a fallen angel very often. Especially if it's something as fancy as a fierce angel.

　Hands, the arms dealer, interrupts the calm conversation and has his apprentices bring a large number of weapons.

"Himik might be fine, but I don't want to have to deal with ...... insecurity.
"d*mn, that's boring.
"Don't go for the fun.

　I'd say don't let a woman who confessed to being in love with you carry such a cursed weapon.

"Hmm?　This is a prepared weapon?　Lord, can I use any of them here?
Yeah, the supervisor gave me permission. Find me a good fit.
Okay. I'll let you have it, owner.
"Oh, oh.

　After taking measurements, Himikku slowly approached the pile of weapons and carefully examined each one, paying no attention to the fact that the giants were moving away.

The shopkeeper, do you have any larger weapons?　I'll take this sword as a backup, though.
"Hey, hey, that's a giant's axe, okay?　Was it ever bigger?

　It's hard to find an ideal weapon, aside from the fact that it's good.
　The double-edged sword at your waist is a shortsword with a blade length of about fifty centimeters.
　It is made of a special metal called orichalcone, with special magic characters engraved on the blade.
　It's such a fine sword that it's probably best not to ask the price of one.
　Hanz, who was standing next to me, was impressed with Himik's discernment, wondering if he would choose it.
　But it's just a spare weapon.
　It's hard to find a main weapon.
　You're going to be able to find a great deal more than one hand wielding a large axe with one hand, but the expression on his face is cloudy as if to say he's not satisfied with it, and he says with a look on his face that he has no choice but to compromise on the best weapon.

...... I see...or not.

　As I peed and pouted as if it were an abandoned dog, I thought it would be a matter of what was missing.

But I do.
"There is!

　As if to deny it, Hanz quietly tells his apprentice to get something.
　Hearing this, the apprentice checks again to see if he really wants to bring it out.

"Kudos!　Bring it on now!

　Yelled at by Hands, the three disciples ran in a hurry.

"Hey, what have you got for me?
It's one of the top classics I've ever hit. That should make your fallen sister happy. But.
"...... magic sword?
"It's a magical weapon, no doubt about it. The specs are off the charts, no doubt about it. I made it, but it's a bit too quirky for me.
"You'll hear the effects later, what are the disadvantages?
First of all, it's simply too heavy . Even the strongest giant warrior has to carry it by three.
"It's not safe to be in that stage. And that's the first thing to go.


Oh, there's one more thing to worry about. This thing is a hell of a magic eater. There are no mental or physical disadvantages, but it gets extremely low mileage. If you don't adjust it correctly, you'll be dead in a flash.
"Hey,

　You're going to let Himik use such a thing?

It's the only thing I have. That's the only weapon that will satisfy her.

　When I saw the weapons that were brought in, I felt something bad at once.

"Fangtian knife.

　Looking at the black and ominous weapon, the recent knowledge of weapons makes me say the name of the weapon.
　It's the same weapon said to have been used by General Fei, or Lu Bu Bu Bu-sama.

It's a piece of hard metal called Damascus that we giants have created using our own unique method. What do you think, girl?
The "Lord

　Seeing that, I must have met Himik's expectations.
　I'm a little annoyed when she asks if she can keep it.

Let go of it as soon as something happens.
Okay.

　Nodded slowly.
　Then reaching for the weapon on the pedestal, Himik slowly grabs the hilt and holds it up.
　and lifts it up.
　Just like that, the whole area erupts in cheers.

"Hm.
Are you okay?
"Mm, no problem, Lord!　It's a little heavy, but I like it!

　Check to see if there is a physical problem, but Himik himself seems to be fine.
　You will begin to cheerfully wield your flailing weapons.
　It may be lightly intended to be a break-in, but that alone is making the air scream.

"What do you think, Lord!
"Oh, my God. HIMIK.
"I see!　We can keep the Lord in check with this one!
Totally dependable.
"Hmmm!　Stay tuned Lord!

　It's a good thing that there's nothing to be relieved about, and I look at Himiku, who is wielding his kung fu weapon with vigor, aside from Hanz, who is astonished that there's nothing to be concerned about.

"Oh, really dependable . My prospective bride.

　The figure is like an overwhelming champion that seems to spell the end of everything .
　He is smiling and seems to be pleased with what is expected of him, but the weapon completely swallows up the atmosphere.
　I'm sure that I'm steadily falling in love with Himikku, seeing her like that and thinking she's cute.


　Today's Word

　How to do or how to think is up to the individual, but what kind of combination of fallen angel and Fangtian articulation?
