Chapter 102

c102: Conviction

It was so on as the forests, mountains and valleys stretched out

My vision opened up as ifimproved

There’s absolutely no way that that hat’s called a case of the iination or such

Walking the woodland path I becas a moment faster

Preferring to avoid futile killing, when I thought that beasts had taken interest in our location, we purposefully detoured

When I thoughtin wait, that couldn’t be helped so I attacked preemptively

Even without relying on h

「Alice-san?」

「Saira, the current ertip」

「That’s your iination nya, more importantly Alice-san」

Eh?

「Ah, hai」

「We’ll arrive at the royal capital soon nyaAre we going to stay here for a while?」

A branching road, as Saira pointed toward the sign there her eyes faced toward me filled with expectation

Naturally, she’s enthusiastic since she can study blacks I suppose

「Of course, we’ll stay with the deterrasp the trick for katana practiceIt’s all up to Saira okay」

「I’ll do my best! My arms cry out nya!」

「Fufu, I’ll be holding expectations」

「Hai desu!」

And so I was a little injured

Occasionally she’s so of Saira

Issn’t she? Kyuu?

「Kyu～i」

Why do you avert your face, Kyuu?

I grasped Kyuu froether and, that face was abruptly averted

You, definitely read my heart didn’t you?

That’s so isn’t it?

「Alice-sa～n, over here over here!」

「Over here～!」

We advanced down the road to the royal capital while I and Kyuu began a pointless fight and, we called out to by Makina and Rin-chan ere stopped before the branching path’s sign

Oya, and I turned around while my face met with Saira’s

「Is the royal capital not this way?」

「That’s so but, there’s a renowned blacksmith on this path to be sure」

「To be sure」

Rin-chan’s body is ju her voice like an echo at Makina’s feet

At so, Makina and Rin-chan

Maa since Rin-chan is a child who doesn’t do things like dislike people isn’t she

……And so the destination was postponed, Kyuu!

「Kyui!」

Making one cry, Kyuu went up ain

The fluffy warmth of that soft stomach, seems like it could become a habit doesn’t it……

「……Here?」

We’ve come to a stop

The place we arrived at via Makina’s guidance

After the ht our feet to a halt and gathered having cli a mountain stream

I, Saira and Rin-chan, looked up to the vast heavens in one group

「Huge isn’t it nyaa……」

「Huge!」

「……」

I held back my impression

Before us as such the unexpected figure showing itself is, a waterfall

The water raising its ruroans fell into the basin below and, a whiteup

Perhaps carried by water droplets turning to mist, I felt

that chilly damp air with my body

「It’s a superb view, but」

Makinsa～n?

At , Makina nodded with an innocent smile

「We’ve taken the wrong path!」

「Hate the sin and don’t hate the person……」

「It’s～ a joke! Since there really is a swordsmith-san’s workshop here」

Even if you say that, there isn’t so like a residence to be found in this place surrounded by green forest

The droplets rising up fro beautiful though

「Where where!」

Rin-chan created a visor with her hand and looked over her surroundings but, it seems that her results weren’t satisfactory

Fuht……

「As a conjecture, is the workshop beyond this waterfall?」

She cleanly stabbed her finger toward the waterfall

「Correct! Sharp, Alice-san!」

「Fufu, I ination is abundantSo like the rear of a waterfall, isn’t that the fundamentals of an adventure!」

Don’t underestimate a love of fantasy

「Is it excalibur?」

「Ekusu?」

「Only that sword, I want to equip it……」

There is beco Saira make it for me I suppose……

Though in reality I don’t even have an iron sword

「I don’t understand well but, while ere engrossed in conversation Rin went ahead you know?」

Makina coaze

Rin-chan quickly approached the large quantity of water gouging the earth and flowing down the waterfall, using the mountain stream’s rocks as footholds

「Koraa! Danger ement!!」

「Kyahaa, deshi+, it’s okay～!」

It’s not okay!

It hurts, water!

「――Cast release, Blizzard!!」

The spear of ice that Makina released, pierced the core of the waterfall

The floater split vertically into two equal parts

I basically couldn’t see any signs of that ice losing to that extravagant waterfall’s water flow and breaking

「That’s excellent ic?」

「Not at all, I just borrowed it」

Makina hit her glove with two claps

「Deshi+～, a path was h!?」

「Saira」

「Hai desu nya」

I also gave Kyuu over to Saira from the top of my head while I was at it

Having made various conjectures Saira held Kyuu to her breast and, went into the waterfall’s cave with Rin-chan

Without the event of the sound of the waterfall cutting off it became echoes and reverberates

And so the 2 people left behind, entered a face off posture as if they were going to do a duel or such

……There’s no h

「You really do force your way forward come to face your doubts from the front don’t you, Alice-san」

「Makina, please show me your status」

「Eh～」

There’s no need to go along with Makina as she points her lips frivolously

「Makina」

「I don’t want to」

「As your employer, I order you to reveal it」

「What’s this, isn’t that so proper」

Put her hands together behind her head, going ya～ how troubleso indifference

「Why does that bother you?」

「Well that is……」

I suppose there are a nuuild

To start with slaves, Ilya also isn’t able to freely register

Next is red

red card

In the case where it’s spread through the guild that someone’s wanted internationally

――And beyond that, identity fraud

「I’ll allow you to show just your name」

「Hahahaa, you occasionally become serious don’t you, Alice-san」

「Relying on the power of others to deter held by others doesn’tthe proper resolutionIs theyourself to other people’s proble?」

For example even if Makina came to act for our sake from the bottom of her heart, I wouldn’t like it even then

「Really, a strong person, to the extent that it’s blinding isn’t she……」

Makina released her joined arms and, turned her face down

――And then she raised it

「I refuseI a on my convictionsIf you want to bend that――」

Makina’s gaze became sharp

In a natural posture, she readied her lower body

「Show me that level of resolution」

A level of pressure that made it difficult to breath

That’s Makina’s hostility

But to whatever extent the troubleso us after this is, I want the data to cut through that

「……That’s, just fine」

This body is already prepared for battle

My senses are honed

To be sure the sound of the waterfall is crushi+ng one of the five senses

Sound, I well understand that the condition of such as that being blocked is fairly important

――Kick the earth

Our acknowledgements are both finished

To request more than this, words that only scrape the surface are unneeded

Lowering myself I enter Makina’s breast

I thrust my lower palm

However this missed

It’s the true power the opponent displayed in close combat with shi+on-san, I think it’s a class above my own

Fro my first strike was a preliminary test, I released my power and jumped

Pulling backht lower palm into her at the same time

One two

In the space of an instant, a lightning fast combo attack that didn’t allow the opponent to act

――Be that as it may, Makina showed she could endure even that
