Chapter 30 (1/2)

I grabbed the handle with both hands and pulled it with all my strength.

”Phew!”

A dazzling light came from the sword.

The light from the sword did not diminish, but became brighter until it dyed the room white.

And when the light went out, the sword in my right hand was gone.

''So that's the Master's new armor! It's beautiful!”

”It looks lighter than I expected. I thought a full suit of armor would suit the Lord, though.”

”Kyu”

I touched my chest, and realized I was wearing metal armor.

It was located on the torso and both parts of my legs and arms.

The design was very simple, nothing flashy.

I was imagining full armor of some sort, but this seems to be sufficient.

If I'm going to be traveling, it's good to have light armor.

”How does it feel?”

”It's very light. I'm not sure how tough it will be, but it's holy armor, so it should be pretty tough.”

Speaking of which, I never told Kaede to evaluate my sacred sword.

Let's take this opportunity for Kaede to take a look at it.

”Evaluate it?”

”Yes please.”

”I can't do that. It is impossible to evaluate the armor because my level is not adequate, the information I would see would not be very accurate.”

”What do you mean by that?”

”Unlike normal armor, the sacred armor makes all information unreadable... Perhaps it's level is so high that it can hide it's information.”

For some reason, I already knew that analyzing the sacred armor was going to be impossible.

There is still much mystery surrounding the sacred armor.

If this sacred object could be analyzed, it would be known for many years where it was created, with what materials, the technology and the secrets it contains.

”Now that we've gotten what we needed, it's time to go to the fairy village.”

”Excellent!”

We left the temple.

The sound of branches crackling on the fire enveloped the place.

”Supee, supeee.”

”Master...”

Kaede stretched her arms over her head as she said things in her sleep.

I'm curious to know what kind of dreams she's having.

Two days have passed since we entered the forest, and we are still moving towards the hidden village of the Fairy Tribe.

Just above us, Rosuke flew through the air like a fish swimming in water.

Whenever we camp, I always have Rosuke keep an eye on the place.

It has the order to eliminate any demon or monster that approaches us.

It is the only way to sleep without worrying that something horrible will happen to us.

However, I have been in the habit of not being able to sleep when camping for many years now. And even knowing that I can sleep safely, it is impossible for me.

《Report: Experience-saving has been repaired》

Oh. So it's finally fixed.

But I don't like the idea of this ability sucking all my experience back in.

The experience-saving ability had been active since I was a baby.

In other words, it took twenty-five years for the ability to break down.

How long will it take for it to break again?

Will it be thirty years from now or will it not break until I die?

After all, the skill's level limit is broken, and now I have to raise it to fifty.

Well, I'm happy with lvl 300, so it doesn't really matter.

”No Master... Don't abandon me...”

Kaede continues to hold out her hand with a pained look on her face.

It seems to be a terrible dream.

I walked over to her and patted her on the head.

”Master... I'm glad that you're here.....”

”Relax, I'm not going anywhere.”

I smiled to reassure her.

”Please help me....”

That was the last thing she said before she began to breathe more calmly as she slept.

Perhaps she is remembering the days when she was a slave?

I will be here with you.

So you can sleep easy.

I stroked her head once more.

”Orya!”

Frau was using her hammer to get rid of some goblins.

From there, she spun around at high speed and knocked a group of goblins to the ground.

She perched on a tree branch and made a satisfied face.

”I'm pretty good at what I do. I'm sure you've noticed, Lord.”

”But I hadn't doubted your abilities.”

”No! You thought I was too small and cute to fight! Even Kaede was worried that I couldn't make it!”

”I'm sorry.”

When Kaede lowered her head, I immediately apologized to Frau as well.
