Chapter 45
Chapter 45: Rumors and Fashion
One head of mountain cows, I killed it with bare hands .
Io who ca with to my daily routine quota asked strangely .
「Kakeru-san, what happened to Eleanor-san?」
「Hikari was still sleeping so I left her . Right now, they’re probably sleeping as parent and child without bother」
「Haa〜……is it okay?」
「Un?」
「Uhm, is it okay even if you don’t have a weapon」
I thought for a bit, I got it .
When I think about it, when I t Io, I already had Eleanor huh .
And ever since, I always brought Eleanor when I’m going to fight, and what Io said “Amazing” most, crushing Orycuto into pieces, I did it using Eleanor .
I defeated mountain cows with bare hands at first, but Io doesn’t know that .
「Orycuto is too much with bare hands so, I’ll count on you today」
「ーーYes!」
☆
Mountain cows and Orycudite, I delivered both of them, left ways with Io, and walked around the town .
When I was walking nonchalantly, I noticed that sothing is weird .
No, saying sothing is weird is different too, there’s liveliness sohow .
There’s liveliness, and if I think about it, I feel like the people in this town had increased .
Is there a festival or sothing?
「Kyaa!」
I was bumped by soone from the side . It was a girl’s voice .
She almost fell down to her thighs, so pulled her hand and stopped her .
「Are you okayーーI an, isn’t Marie」
「Eh? Ah, Kakeru-san」
「Why are you hurrying like that, and those luggage」
Marie had a big bag, and food ingredients were inside .
「There were no more ingredients in the store, so I was shopping」
「There’s no more? This early?」
I sohow looked up to the sky, the sun is still high .
「Yes . Recently, the people in town is increasing . There were many people that moved from other towns . And because of that, our custors have increased, and sotis, sothing like this」
「Is that so . You’re booming huh」
「Thank you very much!」
「I’ll go eat there again soon」
「Yes! I’ll be waiting」
I waved at Marie and saw her off, and looked around once again properly .
The reason why it felt like the people increased was like that huh .
But, why? Is it usual for food stores to be sold out faster, or to see people increase very clear even to ?
I got curious of that .
☆
「That is thanks to Yuuki-sama」
I ca to Samaras rchant Company, and when I told Samaras about that as a topic, he said that to .
「Thanks to ?」
「Yes, this Roizen, do you know what na is it being called recently . They said, it is the town of the Demon Sword Wielder」
「……my?」
「Yes, that is correct . A town where a hero that wields sothing like a Demon Sword, a town where whenever sothing happens, he would protect . Kiril War, Olivia’s Tragedy . Because of the accidents that happened consecutively, there’s a rumor that had spread saying that this Roizen is the safest place right now」
「He〜」
There’s sothing that got with the way of saying, sothing like a Demon Sword .
「That, how much is it being rumored?」
「Let think」
Samaras thought for a while, and said .
「There is a big weaponry shop after crossing one street, I will suggest for you to go there」
「Weaponry Shop?」
Why is it a weaponry shop?
I thought it was strange, but I decided to go for the an ti .
I left the Samaras rchant Company, and walked through the town that beca vigorous .
I traced the mory when I took a walk before, and reached the weaponry shop Samaras told .
I entered insideーーI was surprised .
「Welco, is it the first ti for custor-san?」
A woman clerk greeted with a business smile .
「Is that so . What are you looking for today? We have all major kinds of weapons」
「Rather than that……that」
Where I pointed to, there was a ton of weapons that looked like the sa lined up on the weaponry shop’s wall .
That is, said in one word, Eleanor .
There was a ton of swords that looked completely the sa as Eleanor .
「Ahh, is Custor-san looking for Demon Sword Replica?」
「Demon Sword Replica?」
「Oh? Having a question about ans? Custor-san is soone who just ca to this town right」
「……what is it?」
「Do you know that recently, this town is being called the town of the Demon Sword Wielder? Recently, that Demon Sword that was the sa as what the Demon Sword Wielder uses, the replica of the Demon Sword sells like hotcakes」
「They sell?! And even like hotcakes」
「They really sell . Honestly, one replica of the Demon Sword, has the sa profit from selling those other weapons」
「No way……」
I was speechless . I didn’t think that sothing like that was happening .
「How about it Custor-san, do you want one? They are still selling, so it’s going to be sold out soon and it’s going to get harder to buy them you know?」
「……」
More and more, I got lost on what I should say .
☆
I left the weaponry shop, and walked around the town nonchalantly .
And when I looked at it carefully, it’s true, there were swordsn that had Eleanor-like things hanging from their waists sotis .
It’s not only in their waists, there are even those who were carrying them on their shoulders .
Even though they know very well that it really feels like it’s a “Demon Sword”, nobody says anything . Even if they were carrying it openly, nobody thought of it strangely .
「……when did it beca like this」
I mumbled .
At the sa ti, it felt a little ticklish .
More than being told that I was being rumored by soone sowhere, this was far more ticklish .
「Okaa-san! I also want a Demon Sword」
「Swords are dangerous, so when you grow up okay」
The conversation of the mother and child that passed in front of made it more and more ticklish .
This is……that, soday an imitation sword of Eleanor, or even a toy Eleanor might be sold?
「……no」
I went around the town with a quick pace . I looked around focusing on toy stores or grocery stores, places like that .
They might already exist . rchants that saw how it was, might already have started making them and selling them .
I thought of that and looked around, I even went to the corners of the city where there were few people, but I couldn’t find toy-like Eleanors .
I had a weird feeling, but I was relieved for a little .
If it really beca a toy, I wouldn’t know what face I should make .
「I should go ho huh」
I’ll talk about it to everyone today . It’s a very good story for teasing Eleanor .
No, maybe I should even buy at least one before going ho . It really looks like Eleanor itself, so Hikari might get happy .
I thought of that, and when I was going to the weaponry store .
「You’re the Demon Sword Wielder」
I heard a low voice from behind, and a blade was pointed at the back of my neck .
I was surprised clueless to the sudden thing .
I moved only my eyes, and confird them .
There were no people around ……other than five n who was releasing their hostility .
「Who are you?」
「There are many people who have a grudge on you, I’m one of them」
「……what are you planning to do with ?」
「Foolish question . I will kill you here」
The man said with a low voice mixed with hatred .
「I have been waiting for this ti . The ti to kill you, the ti when the Demon Sword is not in your hands」
「……」
「How does it feel without your last hope? Are you scared? Are you frustrated? That, we willーー」
I used the Warp Feather .
From the situation of being pointed with a blade on the back of my neck, I warped to a place five ters away from them .
I looked at the n . They were all surprised .
「My bad . It’s not like I’m strong because I have the Demon Sword」
「Ku……!」
「Well then, bring it on」
「R-Retreat!」
The n, all of them ran away . ーーbut I won’t let them .
I made full use of warp to chase them, and killed them for sure .
Because if I let them go away, they might change their targets to my won the next ti .
「Y-You monster……」
The last man mumbled that at the end, I received it as a flattery .
