"I can take human form as well, if my master wishes."
"What?" I turned toward the sword.
I had no idea what just happened. It was only a while ago when I was talking to a sword and now it said it can take human form if I wish? Is there really sothing like this okay to happen? Or am I just hallucinating?
"Master?" I heard the voice once more as the bright light disappeared.
I turned toward finding a child standing in front of who was barely reaching my waist.
"Master, can’t you recognize ?" he asked.
Yeah, he took the shape of a boy.
"Erios, is it really you?" I kept having thoughts as if I’m hallucinating.
"Master, you are not hallucinating."
"If you don’t like this appearance then I can change it again to whichever to your liking," he said and was trying to change when I stopped him.
"No no, it is ok."
"You don’t have to choose another form. This one looks perfect," I said in panic. I’m trying not to be thinking anything but yeah Erios just resembles so much like Excalibur making want to hold and rub those cheeks.
"Madam, can I co in now?" I heard Alexavier calling from the other side of the door.
What should I do? Will he understand?
"Y-yes co in!" I still allowed it.
I stood still while he ca inside the room.
"Madam, is everything okay?" he asked.
"Y-yeah," I replied.
"Ok, you can co downstairs now for lunch," he called .
I didn’t answer anything.
"Madam, you heard , right?" He called again.
"Yeah, master heard you," I hid my face behind my palm.
"You?"
This is the mont I never wanted to happen but it just happened so fast, making it hard to process. No, I could barely process it at all.
"Who are you?"
"What are you doing here?" he let out his sword pointing straight at his throat, even though I was the one who was still standing between them like a wall, still, it can reach fine till his throat.
"I asked who you are!!!!!" he shouted.
"I’m? I’m not obliged to answer anyone who is not my master." Why is Erios so stubborn when he can simply say it?
"Youuuuu!!!"
"Duke, I can explain!" I stood between them.
"Madam!"
"Yeah, he is none other than Erios, the Holy sword." I know it is hard to believe.
"Master, you don’t have to explain to a re human when I can simply just kill him!!!!!" I glared at him, making him shut at once.
"Is he really?" Alexavier asked again.
"Yeah, he is. And with your permission, I would like to ask you if he could stay here in Duke mansion for the ti being?" I looked down.
"Madam, you don’t have to ask for permission," he said.
"Yeah, I know I just can’t ask you all the ti."
"I will send him back." I spoke.
"Madam, this is not what I an." he stopped .
"Then what?"
"Madam, you are the duchess of Ablia. So you can make any decision you think is good. You don’t have to ask about my approval at all. It is your duty." as he said, I felt a sudden rise in my heartbeat.
Is this really the first ti he ever talked to like this in these two lives? Is this really one of my chances he made my heart beat faster than I ever felt just looking at his pictures in newspapers?
"Master, just order what I have to do?" Erios again went with his killing intent.
"You!!!! You have no right to say anything between us!!!" Alexavier went with him as well.
"Why? Do you think I need your permission to speak? Who do you think you are? The god? My superior? Then you are wrong. I only obey my master and your words have zero value."
Erios!!!!!!
"And do you think such a useless sword has the right to talk between us?"
I’m literally getting annoyed right now.
"Simple? Useless sword? Duke Alexavier Agnes, do you really think I’m a re sword? Then why don’t you order the almighty sword of yours to take an appearance like ? After all, it is with you from your eighth birthday!!!"
"Why don’t you try waking up your NOXUS?"
"Who are you? How did you know all this!!!!" He held Erios by his collar raising up in the air, which I had to make myself interfere in.
"What the hell are you two doing? Leave!!!!!!" I scread.
They finally let go of each other, but my head started blasting inside.
"Master, I can just vanish your headache!" Erios again said sothing.
"Erios, can you please stop reading my mind?" I looked at him.
"He can read your mind?" again Alexavier.
"We both are connected, unlike you." again he tried to provoke.
"Erios, if you don’t shut your mouth right now, I will break the connection no matter what the consequences are. Did you get it?" I asked while massaging my forehead.
"Yes Master," he stayed silent.
Now the only thing I have to handle is Alexavier. I don’t know what he is thinking, but the situation is more confusing than I expected. All above Erios is here. What should I tell the others who work here? Should I say he is my little brother? No no I can’t all already saw my brother and be known to be the father’s heir by the entire empire.
Then? What? Should I just say he is my son? But is it even possible when I’m just eighteen by now? But this can really force the duke to sign the divorce papers.
Or should I?
"Madam, you can speak your mind." Alexavier gave confidence, but can I really speak my mind?
"Duke, can you please do sothing about Erios? Can you introduce him as your nephew?" I asked.
"Nephew?" he asked.
"Yeah, or should I really have to introduce him as my son?" I looked away while saying.
