Chapter 75 - Training
「Hot spring?」
From Louise's short sentence they decided to go to the Marukuni Hot Spring Town . It was a hot spring town on the way to Rock Hold Cave . Kazane also nodded to Louise's request that they stay for two nights, and she sent a Party Mail to Yuuko-nee about it . She was always with Yumika so she did not have many opportunities to use it, but Kazane and the others' Window had such a function .
Yuuko-nee:「Shobon」 [TL: Shobon is the emoticon (´・ω・`) ]
The reply that came back was Shobon .
◎ Marukuni Hot Spring District
「So this is a hot spring?」
Kazane was operating Hippo-kun and Prince Sieg was sitting in front of her .
「Yeah, that's right . 」
「There is a medicated bath, where medicinal herbs and the like have been steeped in the hot water . 」
Tiara, who was tightly squeezing Kazane from behind, explained to Sieg .
「That seems like it would help people become healthier, right?」
Sieg admired after Tiara's explanation .
Kazane was on Hippo-kun, Sieg was in front of Kazane, and Tiara was behind Kazane as they talked . Those two people were somehow on good terms . They were friendly due to similar tastes .
「That kid is also difficult . 」
Louise, who was riding the other Hippo-kun behind, was watching with a smile . Zinray in front had no particular reply . From behind Yumika gave a dry laugh「ahahaha . 」
Sieg had said it was his first time at a natural hot spring . There was a private bath for the royal family's exclusive use in the royal palace, so he was completely lost when it came to all aspects of the hot springs . He himself didn't realize that it was completely natural to be a little surprised about the state of affairs . And Tiara, who had been in the same circumstances just a little while ago, was treating Sieg like a younger brother .
『Hm』
Mefirus thought the sight was deeply moving, and thought that if the circumstances were different they would have made a good married couple . If either Prince Sieg were not the First Prince or Tiara had not inherited the Ruby beast, that future could have existed if only Audin had a male child to succeed him .
『Well, there's no use thinking about that now . 』
When Mefirus murmured that softly in Louise's arms she tilted her head in confusion .
◎ Rocky Area Near Marukuni Hot Spring District, Evening
「So here's the conclusion . I will have Sieg master the White Sword . 」
Kazane used the country's greatest treasure as a cane while she spoke .
This place was a large rocky area a little separated from the hot spring town, a perfect place to practice firing White Fang .
「Master it?」
Sieg asked immediately about the practice Kazane brought him along to do . He heard practically the same thing from his mother, but Sieg couldn't imagine how he was going to be taught . Until now Sieg and Yuuko-nee were the only ones who could use the White Sword, and Yuuko-nee didn't know why Sieg was unable to use it .
「That's right . There would be super embarrassing laughter if it's not usable, so I will have Sieg master it . 」
Who would laugh when told such a thing . Especially when they're trying not to be reminded of it .
「So wield it for a bit . 」
Kazane handed the sword to Sieg .
「Here I go . 」
Sieg held the sword and concentrated . A sound then rang out and the sword split in half, but the light between the blades was frail and unstable, unlike when Kazane used it .
「It is not working properly after all . How about your sword skill?」
「Ye, yes . I get the sense when I swing it that it's different than usual, but there's a feeling like I can't draw out its full potential . 」
There was also a feeling about using honorific language with a girl of the same age . . .
(It's like I'm interacting with someone older than me)
Sieg thought . It wasn't strange since she actually was older, but since he failed to recognize that, such thoughts couldn't be helped .
「Umm . Hold the sword with one hand for a little bit . 」
「Yes?」
Sieg did as he was told and took his left hand off the hilt .
「Then I will also hold it for a moment . 」
Saying that, Kazane grasped the hilt of the White Sword with Sieg .
Sieg's face turned red because of how close their faces were, but Kazane didn't give it any thought . Kazane opened a Window and looked at the White Divider's Status .
「Ah, Yuuko-nee probably didn't know about this feature . 」
Kazane said, then in the Status window lowered the Warrior's Memory synchronization level and Magic Power output to about 50% .
When the White Divider was equipped in Zexiahart, the synchronization level and Magic Power output were optimized for the player . It was likely that the White Divider's settings optimized for Yuuko-nee did not match Sieg .
「It was a careless mistake, Yuuko-nee . 」
