Reborn as the Hero’s Daughter! Time to Become the Hero Once More! Chapter 97

I managed to prevent Lyell and Marias departure for the ti being. After that, the customary party was held overbearinglyFinia looked quite pitiable because of Gadius and Maxwelland after midnight, they finally went ho.

I had Cloud take a day off from the training too, so I was able to properly rest my body. I threw myself on my bed and sighed out all my worked up heat from earlier, calming down my heart with every breath.

Overworking a child could ruin their body. Its important to have him rest properly.

I felt like the words I spoke ca back and hit like a boorang, but lets just ignore it. After taking a breather, I got up and made preparations to examine my equipnt.

I approached the closet with a stool to stand on, then removed the inner board and took out the hidden tools from within.

I wrapped threads on my body during the training, so I wore a black leather jacket and kneesocks made from a firm material, and leggings. My shoes were also knee-high boots, so my skin was mostly hidden. In exchange, it emphasized my body lines quite a lot.

This was sothing Finia chose for hypothesizing the hunting I did with Michelle. Frilly clothes would get in the way inside the forest. Showy colors would also catch the preys attention. Thats why it was made of mostly black.

That said, Ive had it quite tough lately.

There were frays starting to show up here and there on the coat, and blood and dust were sticking to the threads.

I guess I cant handle the coat myself. Should I ask Finia to help repair it?

Passing the needle through the coat was impossible with my strength. The strength enhancent of threads didnt reach down to my fingertips, after all. I wore it during my hunts so I could ask for its repairs without problems.

I removed the battle marks and bloodstains that could invite suspicion and moved on to the next work. The steel threads were twisted from thin tal, so the abrasions were quite extre. There was also dust and blood stuck in its gaps so I had to carefully wipe them with the maintenance oil.

Still, I suppose they are already close to their limit. I really should start looking for new piano wires.

Rather, piano threads were quite inefficient because they wore down too fast. In my previous life, a certain blacksmith supplied with Mythril threads and specially adjusted them for my use.

Moreover, I even had them make gauntlets for with five of those threads equipped on each hand, able to span for over a hundred ters each. That weapon was sothing like a symbol of mine

Huh? That reminds , I wonder what happened to those gauntlets?

My equipnt couldnt have vanished after I died. In other words, it wouldnt be strange for my favorite gauntlets to still be around sowhere. They belonged to one of the Six Heroes, after all. I dont think anyone would demolish or lt them to make sothing else.

Which would an, they are in soones custody, huh?

The most likely candidates were Cortina who should have rushed to my side during my last monts, and Maria who supposedly cast Reincarnation on back then. But there was no such thing in either of their houses.

This was based on my experience as a spy. I was almost certain that neither of them had those.

Did Cortina entrust them to Maxwell, I wonder?

When it ca to Maxwells treasure house, I had no way of confirming it. It was the most guarded place in this town. It might have been the safest place in the town, no, the entire world.

But even I cant get inside there I suppose I have to settle for the piano wires for now.

I showed myself only twice in the music room. Publicly I was simply attending the classes, but in reality, I was there to procure piano wires. I felt a bit apologetic to the music teacher when she tried to teach how to play only to faint in agony from the produced noise.

If I steal too much, they might get suspicious. I really have to consider a battle style that doesnt rely on threads

While I was thinking that, I heard a knock on the door. Given the energetic knock, it didnt seem to be Finia. Sure enough, I heard Cortinas voice the next mont.

Nicole, are you there?

Ah, yeah. Give a mont.

The black hunting clothes and piano wires were scattered around in my room. The clothes were still fine, but I would have no excuse to give if she saw the threads. I winded the threads in a hurry, cramd them in the box and stuffed it under the bed. It was a good hiding spot, but it was only temporary since that wasnt where I usually hid them.

Co in.

Cortina, in her pajamas, opened the door and walked in. She looked far too defenseless in those loose pajamas, and I could catch glimpses of her chest. Were I still a man, I might have taken her straight to the bed.

Oh, were you in the middle of maintaining your hunting gear? Thats admirable.

Nah, this is nothing.

I hid the threads but the black clothes were still lying there. I didnt hide them since they werent particularly suspicious.

Its got fray spots everywhere.

That shows your and Michelles hard work. Though I feel like you are overworking yourself.

Its okay, we have Letina with us too.

I see, I see. You are an honor student, huh, Nicole.

She stroked my head with her slender fingers. Her tail also cheerfully swayed around. It seed that the previous discussion the decision they reached to not search for , hasnt left her in a foul mood.

So, what did you want?

Ah, well. Its about what we talked earlier

I thought she didnt have any complaints about it, but was the reality different? My questions showed up on my face, so she hurriedly waved her hands in denial.

Ah, thats not it! I have no objections about the decision. But still, it would take ti for to sort out my feelings, dont you think?

Now that she ntioned it, we had consecutive holidays from next week because the creation of the swimming pond tired us out. And there was a famous hot spring in the elven village nearby. Cortina decided to make use of that ti and take us there.

That doesnt sound so bad. But are we all going?

Im thinking of and you, Finia, Michelle and Letina.

You arent inviting LyDaddy?

Ah, well, if I invite them, it would turn out like today.

Lyell wasnt a bad drunk, but when he was with Gadius and Maxwell he tended to lose restraint. They were friends who were apart for a long ti, so they probably had quite a lot on their minds.

We have to arrange so ti for Finia to rest too.

Yeah, I agree with you.

It was the sa today, but Finia worked all the ti behind the scenes, be it housework, cooking, cleaning or laundry. She was even taking sword lessons ever since we arrived in this town. And tonights dispute might have fatigued her quite a bit.

Its decided then. Id like for us to depart next week, so let Michelle and Letina know, okay?

Got it.

I gave a quick salute of acknowledgnt. As such, we made plans to depart on a trip next week.
