This is....
How do you like it? Pretty good, huh?

　King Felsen brought me to his collection room. The walls and pedestals were crammed with weapons.
　Starting with swords, spears, bows and axes, there are great swords, daggers, swords, swords and even a chain sickle. All of them are made of special metals and have been given some sort of grant.
　There are so many of them that both the knight king and I are at a loss for words. This is a normal armory.

This is the axe used by the 500 year old hero, the Dragonslayer, Bakram. It is said that the fireball grant was very useful to Baclum, who was unable to use magic.

　Saying that, King Felsen lifted the red axe. It was indeed an axe that looked old.

''King Felsen likes weapons, right?''
Oops. I don't want you to get the wrong idea, but I don't love weapons. I like the lives of the heroes who mastered them and accomplished great deeds.

　I see. So all the weapons in this room are the relics of those heroes.

I love the story of the heroes who fought with their weapons, and it's not worth my age to think about them. I love stories of heroes. I used to read them like crazy when I was a kid.

　You are not a wizard by any means. I'm worried that he's not going to be okay, even though he's from another country.

When I was a kid, I never doubted that I was a hero. I was so excited that I went into the forest where the monsters live and recklessly picked a fight with Tiger Bear. And now I'm paying for it.

　King Felsen pointed to the wound on his own cheek with a self-mocking smile. Tiger Bear.........ah, that tiger-striped bear. I'm pretty sure Yae defeated it once at a guild request. He dealt with that thing when he was a kid? I'm sure he had a reckless character.

I have to admit, I'm jealous of the king. Slaying dragons, killing golems, slaughtering demons. It's an endless series of adventures. If only my brother hadn't fallen, I'd like to live like that too.

　If anything, I started out as an adventurer in my case, so it was a normal life for me.

'Sometimes the Lord King uses unusual weapons, I hear. Would you mind showing me that hip thing?

　King Felsen looked at the Brunnhild I was hanging. It's nothing to hide, so I pull it out of its holster and show it to him.

'Like the name of my country, I call it the Brunhild. It's a weapon that can be used for both long-range sniping and white-collar combat, and I made it myself.

　He changed Brunhild into blade mode in front of King Felsen. He rolled his eyes as if he was surprised by the suddenly extended blade.

'You made this yourself......... Umm, I can't believe it...''
'King Brunhild is also a first-rate weaponsmith. I had my sword made by him.

　Saying that, this time the Knight King Restia draws the sword from his waist and places it on the table. It's a crystal sword made to resemble the Holy Sword Restia.

''Oh! This is great! A noble sword....

　Both were made from crystal wood, and no country has yet developed this level of processing technology.

'I was told they were made for me, but...'
'Yes. As a gift for my coronation. Since then, I've carried it with me at all times. The problem with it is that it has a sharp cutting edge and it's also surprisingly light, so I feel like I can defeat any magical beast.

　I'm sure he's actually doing at least a test slash. It would be easy to slash anything other than advanced flames, so as long as the attack reaches them, they'll be able to defeat it.
　King Felsen, who was looking at the crystal sword with envy, cuts into the conversation here.

I'm not sure, Your Majesty. It's a good idea," he said. I'll give you a reasonable amount of credit?

　Hmm. Well, quite a few people already know about the crystal material, and even if I gave you a single weapon now, it's not like I can do anything about it. At best, it will increase King Felsen's collection.

I don't mind. So, what would you like me to make for you?
'Really? Well.........
I can do that. You don't want me to put on more than one type.

　Also, it's not too powerful. If you grant it ancient magic or something like that, it would be a hell of a weapon. Well, if you fire one shot, it will deplete your magic power and you'll fall over. But if you're prepared for that and use it with several people, there's no longer anything you can't fire continuously.



　Poison or paralysis? That's a pretty disturbing story. Maybe "recovery" will do the trick.

I can do it, but are you sure that's what you want to do?
'Yeah, that's it. It's a wide blade of... well, let's see, like this. This is the sword of Gandal, a wandering, powerful man of some 410 years ago, and when wielded, it creates a cloud of dust...

　Since I was about to go into a lecture on the sword I brought out as a sample, I decided to start making it as soon as possible.
　I took out the crystal material from the "storage", and transformed it into something similar to Gandal's sword using "modeling". The size of the sword is similar, but the handle and details are different. The surface of the sword will have the Felsen family crest on it. The shape should look something like this. All I have to do now is enchanted Gravity and Recovery to make it lighter, and that's it.
　When I asked him to check the weight, he said it was a little too light, so I adjusted it. I thought it should be light, but he said it needed to have a certain amount of weight to enjoy the feel of holding the sword. I'm not sure.

Hmmm. There's no problem with this one. It's a great sword.
If you put your hand on the hilt of your sword and let the magic power flow, you can activate 'recovery'. But the drawback is that not everyone can use it because it takes a lot of magical power.
'I see. Let's give it a try.

　Huh? Try what?
　King Felsen picked up a golden dagger from his collection, placed it on his left arm and lightly cut it. Instantly, his face turned pale, a large amount of sweat flowed from his face, and an expression of anguish appeared on his face.

I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this in the future. You can use this, this, this sword, this Alejandro.
I don't need to know a whole lot of knowledge on the subject. I need a recovery!

　No! This old man is an idiot!
　I immediately poured my magic power into the sword I made, and when 'recovery' was activated, King Felsen's complexion easily returned to normal.
　Unintentionally, the Knight King and I let out a breath of relief. If he dies here, it looks like we'll be the culprits. In the meantime, though, there are people in the room guarding Felsen and Restia. I mean, stop it, guys.

Hmmm. I'm sure he's recovering well. Looks like he's going to be okay.
''Give me a break........ What were you going to do if you didn't have enough magic power?
I'm a member of a royal family. The only thing I hear about you is that you have a decent amount of magic. Even if it's not enough, you're still in the presence of the King, can't you heal him?

　Of course it is! Don't you think I won't give the sword recovery or cast a spell on you when you fall?
　When I turned my head to the Restia Knight King, he laughed at me bitterly. It certainly doesn't seem like this person is someone who can do belly tricks.

I'm sure you're not going to be able to find a way to make it work. Are you in danger of being poisoned in some way?
Hmm? Well, better safe than sorry, I guess.

　King Felsen was vaguely deceptive, but somehow I had a hunch that it was a lie. Apparently, he feels that his life is in more or less danger. What is it?

More than that. In fact, I had a proposal to discuss with you when I heard that King Brunhild was coming.
"Consult?

　Could this be information on stolen frame gear? After all, the mastermind is in this country and the king knows about it? Or did you feel some kind of foreboding that you were about to be poisoned?

Well I'll be 42 this year, and I'm still single.
Huh?
When I was young, it was decided that my brother would succeed to the throne, so I didn't have a fiancé, and I wasn't really interested in him either. I couldn't find anyone suitable to succeed to the throne, so it was troublesome and I put it off until later. Well, how can I say, he came too late, or perhaps it was fate to meet someone.......

　I have to admit, though, it's creepy to see a 40+ muscle-bound old man squirm. What are you talking about, after all!

Are you planning to get married, sir?
Yeah, well, it is.

　It was the knight king who sent out a helper from the side. Oh, I see. I didn't understand it because of your allusive way of saying things. It's pretty gross to see an old man smiling and embarrassed, isn't it?

Congratulations on that. And what do you want to talk to me about?
Oh, um. The thing is.... You'll have to wait a minute. The sooner you meet with him, the better.

　King Felsen asked the guards to run to him for a message. What do you mean, the sooner they meet with you, the better?
　Eventually there was a knock on the door and the king allowed me to enter, and a woman appeared, dressed in a pastel blue dress.
　Is she the same age as me, or a little older? I would say 17 or 18. Her beautiful silver hair is short and collected, and her eyes have a strong will in them. ........Huh? I think I've seen this guy before...?

It's a pleasure to meet you, Your Majesties, Prince Brunhild and Knight King Lestia. It's a pleasure to meet you.
"Oh, here. That's my fiancée, Elysia.

　How old is the difference in age........I mean, they're about 24 or 5 years apart. They look like a father and son when they're together. King Felsen is such a loli...

I'm especially pleased to meet King Brunhild, whose younger sister is in your debt, and I've always wanted to meet him.
What?

　The woman, Elysia, smiles at me, breaking through my thoughts. My sister? Huh?

I'm sorry to introduce myself. My name is Elysia Lea Regulus, and I'm sorry for the delay in introducing myself. I hope you are well, Lucia?
'Oh, oh!'

　Yeah, right! If you think you look like someone else, it's Lou! This is the second princess of the Regulus Empire who is studying in Felsen!
　I am stunned by this unexpected encounter. Huh.......... The Princess of Regulus is King Felsen, right? They're perfect for each other in terms of position, but........ I can't help but get an image that smells of crime.
　That sister, that guy who wants to marry a 13 year old, might not have said that, but....
　I mean we're only 4 years apart. It's probably safe. I hope so.
　...... Wait a minute. That means that Elysia is going to be my sister-in-law... and this bearded muscle-bound old man she's marrying is going to be my brother-in-law! Ew!

How can I help you?

　I was dumbfounded when the knight king's brother-in-law, Nii-san, called out to me.

''I........I'm glad it's just my brother-in-law Reinhardt and brother-in-law Shigetaro.......''
What?

　The mumbling voice was not reaching anyone.
　Ah, well, the Crown Prince of Regulus Empire's brother-in-law, Nii-san, was there too.
　No, that guy was so thin on the ground! Uh, uh, uh, brother-in-law Lukus. ...I'm pretty sure.
　Oh, man. I can't remember his face. He's a great guy, but in a way it's amazing that I don't have an impression of him.
　Anyway, I'd like to apologize in my heart to brother-in-law Lukus Nii-san.
