Chapter 66.“How is it? Can you handle?”

Lus who washed and came out swept his moistly wet hair back.

“The situation became a bit troublesome.”

“Why?”

“Not a demonic beast hard to handle but the conditions are hard. The armor is hard so quietly handling seems hard.”

“No mage who can do soundproof magic?”

“Now because of the disease seems not in a state to use magic.”

Clearly came promising solid support, but somehow nothing going properly.

“Not being caught by anyone might be unreasonable but if handling quickly and returning would do.”

“No, dangerous. What if caught doing that?”

“Even so can't give up this work. If returning like this can't obtain the method to develop the Tragia Plain older sister wanted either. If wearing a mask and changing the swordsmanship a bit won't recognize.”

“Even wearing a mask can recognize you.”

A growing boy so the slender build rather than adult knights stood out.

Moreover seeing the round back of the head, slender neck, straight shoulders etc. even seeing only the back seemed to know why there's the words handsome.

“And what if the mask breaks while fighting.”

Lus who became fifteen bloomed flashily like a June rose, to the extent hard to forget even if only the lips revealed.

“The biggest problem is your swordsmanship is extremely characteristic.”

Lus's sword had extremely strong domineering energy.

Logan who taught Lus the sword also always said about Lus's sword.‘That guy, the killing intent is too strong. Even trying to kill the energy can't kill.’‘Said that sound before too. Nothing changed from then?’‘At that time just scattering the killing intent outward recklessly. Now controlled and condensed? If saying knows how to hone the sword with killing intent will you understand?’ What hit more keenly than Logan's words was the state of Lus's sword.

Not long after learning the sword Lus started breaking the sword several times a day.

Not a practice wooden sword, but even using a hard iron sword it was like that.

Around then even I a complete outsider knew something strange that the sword breaks that frequently while training.

Even Lus's sword not somewhere chipped or broken in half, but shattered as if the sword exploded.

Logan who saw that appearance cleanly diagnosed.‘The magic power energy that guy has is too strong so ordinary swords can't endure.’ Asking if that makes sense Lus holding the broken sword was looking at me with a surprised face.

Thanks to that struggled for a while making a sword that can endure Lus's magic power.

Moreover money also went enormously.

“Even seeing the sword will notice, if sound comes everyone will run.”

“If wrapping cloth on the sword handle so not visible will do.”

“Rather than that not being caught from the beginning is the best. Definitely take a mage who can do soundproof magic.”

Answering Lus and turning the body meaning this talk ends, Lus hugged me from behind.

And rubbed his cheek on my shoulder and nagged.

“If caught handle and, I also have confidence to escape well. Don't do that and I want to do for older sister. Yes?”

I turned my body and held both of Lus's cheeks.

“Even if confident dangerous is dangerous.”

“Tch...”

Lus puffed his cheeks dissatisfied and made a blunt sound.

Whatever energy Lus has in my eyes still cute.

The pointed protruding red lips cute so kissed the cheek smack, Lus's cheeks instantly heated red.

“...

Trying to pass like this again. Older sister still thinks I'm a kid who falls for one kiss?”

Caught.

But Lus being cute was also fact.

I this time kissed Lus's opposite cheek.

“Dangerous things no. Got it, Lus?”

“Older sister knows nothing. To me older sister is the most dangerous.”

Lus buried his reddened face on my shoulder.

“Not doing anything what is dangerous.”

Stroking the round head and kissing, suddenly Lus snatched my wrist.

Looking at Lus with a surprised face, he stared at me with a face remaining heat.

Between the cold eyes the red eyes looked at me fervently.

“This is dangerous. I'm also fifteen now.”

Disliked still treating like when young?

I said in a slightly intimidated voice.

“If dislike won't do from now on.”

“Not that...”

Lus gently pulled my wrist down and whispered.

“Can I also kiss older sister?”

“Uh...?”

Often kissed with Lus, but that was all me doing to Lus.

And that was only matching lips on the cheek like doing to a young sibling because Lus is cute.

Lus never did first to me even once.

Rather if just did I also would have received cutely, but asking like that something strange.

I rolled my eyes and awkwardly answered.

“Yeah, what... try.”

Our cute Lus saying will kiss even if a bit awkward no way dislike.

Quietly holding out the cheek, Lus bit his lips and made a slightly resentful face.

“Older sister really...”

Looking with a face of what problem, Lus's lips quickly touched my cheek.

The soft lips exactly like a bird pecking with the beak touched and disappeared.

Much cuter than thought.

“Want to do this side too?”

As Lus always did when I held out the opposite cheek Lus hugged me and buried his face in my arms.

“No...”

“Why. I'll do the opposite side too.”

“Don't know.”

“Then shall I?”

Then Lus put more strength in the arm hugging my waist.

Meaning don't do and stay still.

That appearance too cute so I blew wind huu, on Lus's ear.

Lus startled and removed his hand from my waist and covered his ear.

And looked at me with slightly resentful eyes.

“Eh? Where going? Angry?”

“Not angry. Going for a walk and coming.”

Tried to ask what walk suddenly.

Lus quickly exited the room without even a gap for me to catch.

I blankly saw Lus's disappearing back.‘Was the prank severe?’ But didn't seem disliking that much.‘Puberty?’ Our Lus also the time came.

If really angry wouldn't have shown such a quiet reaction.

More than that had to quickly find a method to purify the water.

If the water becomes clean people can also concentrate only on treatment so can recover soon.

“Blackie.”[Yes, Master.]

“Didn't you say can change the nature of water or purify too?”

Recalled the words Blackie said when first meeting Blackie before.

At that time thought no environmental pollution in this world so no big use.[Of course can.]

“Can purify demonic energy too?”[If demonic energy is thick troublesome, but if concentration this thin possible.]

“Then...!”[But now can't. Said, Master. I'm currently in a state of ability sealed.]

Then have to ask the Menisd Duke to show the warehouse?

If raiding the Duke's warehouse one jewel to feed Blackie might come out.

Pondering for a moment how to say for the Duke to show the warehouse, Blackie carefully said.[But found a jewel that can release the seal.]

“Really? Where? Should have said earlier!”

Even if not this matter nothing bad releasing Blackie's seal.[At that time wasn't a situation to say.]

“When did you see?”

Saw when talking with the Menisd Duke?

Or might be a jewel someone was wearing when going to the restaurant.[On the first day when coming Lucius fought with some man.]

“Surely not the man who fought with Lus at that time has?”

Didn't want to get entangled with that guy more.

Fortunately what Blackie talked about was a completely different person.[No. Not that man but want to eat the jewel some old man who passed at that time has.]

“Old man?”[Yes. At that time saw the commotion and went around far but was wearing a long purple robe. A star shape was drawn on the robe. Want to eat the ruby that old man has.]

“Good. For now can look based on that information.”* * *Finding who the old man is wasn't that hard.

Aeson Bryan.

A historian belonging to the Menisd ducal house.

I took Blackie and headed to Aeson's research lab.

His research lab was located on the 3rd floor of the ducal castle, and the first visible entering the room was enormously piled books.

Filling the walls not enough books piled like towers even on the floor.

“Said wanted to meet me?”

“Right, have something to say to you.”

Aeson seen closely was an impression like a picky professor.

According to a bit investigated an excellent scholar who published several excellent papers, especially said has a lot of interest in the history of the founding period.

A man concentrating on research to the extent of leaving words would interpret one more ancient language character in that time rather than dating.

“Just I also had something I definitely wanted to ask the Duchess.”

Aeson took out a small music box.

The music box as small as the palm and white was delicately decorated so really pretty.

Pondering whether a jewel decorated on this music box Blackie's voice was heard.[Master, there's a jewel inside that music box.]

Hearing Blackie's words I calmly said.

“Is there such a coincidence. I also came because of that music box.”

“As expected an item that came out from the Valfruga ducal house correct. Not that merchant lied!”

Don't know that well, but I roughly nodded according to the mood.

Then Aeson asked me with sparkling eyes.

“The Valfruga ducal house known less in the world than other ducal houses so gathering all related items. Especially this music box! Seeing the technology or style used clearly made in the early founding!”

Aeson alone excited started talking this and that about the music box.

“Ordinarily hard to obtain at that price, but because of a fatal defect fortunately could put in my hand.”
