15 13 Fran and Master (1/2)

'Let's check the situation first. Calm down.'

”Calm down.”

”You're too calm.”

Looks more like my paced daughter than I thought. I have a feeling this is going to be a big deal.

”You've become my gear man.”

”Yeah.”

”For once, he's a demonic swordsman, so strong there... should be”

”Yeah.”

'So, as far as I'm concerned, I want you to use it. As a sword. I don't want to be shunned. Are you going to use me? I mean, are you gonna use me to fight a warcraft or something? I mean.'

Exactly, I can't force this girl to live like that.

He's my first gear guy, and he wants this girl to use it, but if he says he doesn't like it, he gives up.

”Yes. Very much so.”

It was a quick answer. The way you gripped me was even ridiculous.

”I'll be strong. Absolutely”

It seems very motivated to know what the situation is.

'Do you have any goals?

”Breaking through walls”

”Wall? What's that?

Listening to the story, a beast man is a species that evolves like a warcraft. There are various conditions depending on the race, but when evolved, they are respected and revered within the Beast Man.

However, the vast majority of beasts die without being able to evolve. Evolving means that's how hard it is.

Moreover, from the Black Cat tribe, a species of girl, there is not one evolutionary in the past, and it is a lower end treatment among the Beast tribe? The girl's parents also managed to keep trying to evolve, making the adventure even more strenuous. And the girl that was left behind was blinded and captured by a slave trader.

The girl says her goal is to inherit the will of her parents and fulfill their evolution.

”Yeah, yeah, yeah, talk to me! I like it! I'll definitely evolve you!

”Really?”

'Oops! Let's work out Bishibashi first and make him strong. And go to the dungeon, level up, it's evolution!

”Thanks”

'I mean good! When I say gear and sword, I'm not someone else! Uh, if I say so, what's your name?

I hadn't heard his name yet. Even though he's an important equipper. However, the girl's answer was unexpected.

”None”

”Huh? You don't have a name?

”None”

Sure, I had no name, but I didn't know it really was.

”Why?”

”When you make a slave contract, you lose your name”

'Hmm? What do you mean?

”Some new masters want to decide their names. So they erase the name.”

I see. You mean you're banned from using contract magic to name names. Sounds like Chihiro was named after Yuba Yuba.

”When I was eight, I was enslaved and my name was erased”

This means that I haven't lived as a slave for four years and haven't lost my mind in trying to accomplish my goals. I'm sure you've had a terrible life. I've got a little respect for you.

'Right...... so what's your original name?

”Fran.”

That's the name of the dog I used to own, okay? It's easy for me to call it.

'Mm-hmm. Then your name is Fran'

”Are you sure?

'No?'

”Yeah. I can't. I'm Fran.”

Actually, he's happy. I'm nodding to Kokoku. Now it's easier to call it. But the next word from Fran made me confused.

”What's your name?

”Huh? Me?

”Yes.”

I haven't spoken to anyone in the past month, so I didn't care, but with that said, you didn't have a name. Dumb thing, I hadn't noticed that at all.

For once, I have a lifetime name, but so do I name it. Anyway, even though it's a sword, a manly name would be strange.

But looking at the status, the name is unknown. Damn, if I'd cared sooner, I'd have thought of a great name!

Something would have happened to the Devil's Sword Kaos or Delfri O-gar!

”Er...”

”No?

”Yes.”

”Well, I'll put it on”

Well, I guess that's good too. You're the gear man. If you call me by Fran's favorite name, you'll have an attachment, too. Nothing, I'm not into names, and you can call me whatever you want.

”Hmmm......?

”Dodgy.”

”Hmmm......?

”Excited”

”Mmmm...... Decided.”

”Oh! Right! So? So?

”Master”

'What?'

”Master”

”Why?”

”I said you'd train me. So Master.”

”Uh, no other candidate? Is that a choice?

”No. Nice to meet you, Master”
