Episode.79 The bowstring is stronger than the sword (5)

    – Tiring!

    [You have purchased a weapon restoration.]

    [Once purchased, the product will be replaced with another product.]

    A strange black light gathered in the broken black sword.

    The black light slowly rose up from the broken place.

    The blade of the sword was slowly being restored where a strange black light that was not bright at all passed by.

    “That’s weird. That black energy… I’ve never seen it before in my life. Could it be that you are a warlock?”

    Triche said, expressing the amazing emotions she felt upon seeing the sword being repaired.

    【I see. This is my first time seeing something like this!】

    Chaewon seemed to have become attached to the sword and did not look away.

    She couldn’t keep her mouth shut as she watched the sword that she thought was her home being repaired.

    It’s my first time seeing it too.

    “A warlock, such a sad sound… It’s just that the energy coming out is a bit dark.”

    While answering Triche’s words, the ‘King’s Sword that Lost Its Owner’ returned to its original state.

    “… Was it repaired? It looks a little sloppy.”

    Triche was puzzled.

    “What should I do that has been like this since I first got this weapon?”

    “Really? You entrust yourself to the battlefield and choose a fighting partner from a used product. I made an uncharacteristically foolish judgment, didn’t I?”

    Triche flipped her hair and crossed her arms.

    And crossed my legs.

    I thought she looked arrogant.

    “Used goods… Yes, you could say that. But, I didn’t choose it.”

    I looked at the tip of my black sword, where the strange light had faded.

    ‘The king’s insight, activated.’

    – Tiring!

    ==========

    ‘Hmm… I think everything has been restored to its original state.’

    【Wow, it was fixed really neatly? How did you do it? You did it with that unknown system, right? thank you!】

    After being dazed for a moment, she seemed to come to her senses and ran towards me and said.

    As soon as the sword was fixed, a smile that couldn’t be hidden appeared on Chaewon’s face.

    One way or another, I felt at ease when she smiled.

    Why, it’s better to see a fellow traveler who is always happy than when he or she is always in a depressed mood.

    Seeing my partner happy made me feel at ease.

    ‘Yeah… I like it when he runs into my arms, but he’s not wearing pants or a skirt, so it kind of wakes me up…’

    【It’s not like I didn’t wear bottoms because I wanted to go around naked, right? Please don’t get me wrong?!】

    Chaewon blushed and hurriedly got away from me as if she was pushing me away.

    She tried her best to pull on her knit, even though there was no way it could cover her bare lower body, which was now only wearing underwear.

    **********

    Less than a day has passed since Illya’s group arrived in Heblon, and they rescued ‘Sechidog’.

    It seemed that Ilya had probably conveyed a message to Leah in advance.

    I thought I would have to stay here for another day at Elf Changgwan, but thanks to Leah’s thorough preparation, I saved the trouble.

    Since all business was done, we left the Elf Changgwan.

    “You don’t have to come out to meet me, Leah.”

    Illya says something she doesn’t mean when she sees Leah coming out to meet her at the entrance to the Elf Changgwan.

    “What are you saying? If I don’t come out to meet you, I’ll get upset again. But what are you using the poison from that world tree for? You’re not just taking it to use it for bad things, right?”

    Leah said, straightening her long blonde hair.

    Her eyes full of suspicion turned towards Illya.

    “Well, is that possible? I’m going to use it in a good and meaningful place, so don’t worry too much, just trust me and be at ease. oh! Before we knew it, time had passed… Leah, we’ll go now.”

    ‘Isn’t it too shabby to lie?’

    【I think everything I said was revealed.】

    When Chaewon mentioned Illya’s petty lie, she immediately hit back.

    “Okay, let’s meet again next time.”

    Fortunately, Leah was passed over without any suspicion.

    【I just pass this over like this.】

    ‘I’m also lucky.’

    “Yes, that’s right-”

    “Wait there!”

    A man’s voice is heard, interrupting Illya’s conversation.

    His voice was neither deep nor too light.

    When I looked back, I saw an elf man pointing a point at me.

    “… Did you call me?”

    “Yes, of course you. Otherwise. Well, maybe I should have stopped the ladies behind it?”

    “Who are you?”

    Ilya asked the elf man.

    “Hey, who are you?!”

    An elf man who seemed to be very drunk said while glaring at Illya.

    “Ha, are you saying this without knowing this body? How dare this…”

    “What? Who are you? A pale-faced young bitch with no genealogy… How dare you giggle next to my Leah?”

    “… ‘My’ Leah?”

    “Shut up! How dare you call my Leah’s name?”

    【Ugh. Um, the truth is… you’re completely drunk, aren’t you?】

    “Guys, I’m sorry. I will step forward.”

    Leah blocked our path as if she was familiar with this situation.

    At this moment, her bare back, which was made up of hollow skin, looked very sturdy.

    “That guy… do you know each other?”

    “Hmm… You can say that, right? Since we spend a lot of money at the store… Well, it’s normal for me to drink and argue with all the men who are close to me.”

    Leah was not embarrassed and took out her bow.

    “Huh? Where did I put the arrow?”

    “… Do bowmen sometimes leave their arrows behind?”

    Triche, who was worse off, said something.

    “Ahaha… Well, I forgot today.”

    “Should I help you out?”

    Triche placed her hand on the area where the dagger was.

    “No, leave this entirely to me. I’ll solve it.”

    Leah lifted her bow like a sword.

    “She is mine… How dare you talk to Leah without my permission?”

    The male elf pulled out a regular longsword that looked ordinary at first glance.

    “Let us stand back.”

    I took a slight step back, taking Triche and Illya with me.

    A sudden battle takes place in front of the Elf Changgwan store.

    【Honestly, watching the fight is the most fun. Unless my life depends on it.】

    “Leah, why are you rebelling against me?”

    “You bastard… You keep talking nonsense, but I have never once been your property.”

    The male elf who heard those words held his sword tightly.

    Leah, who saw this, also grabbed her bow.

    Anyone who saw it seemed like the side that used the bow as a melee weapon was at a disadvantage.

    “I love you-”

    “This is a nuisance!”

    “No! It’s not a nuisance! It’s just an expression of affection… If mine doesn’t listen… I’ll have to fix it. That is love and an expression of affection, right? Leah!”

    As their emotions grew stronger, their voices gradually became louder.

    Leah clenched her teeth.

    “Don’t be stupid… If you really loved me… Do you think that pointing a sharp, potentially life-threatening blade at the person you love is an expression of affection?!”

    “I make my own decisions!”

    An unknown male elf rushed towards Leah.

    “You could get really hurt, so it would be better to surrender and reflect now!”

    – Boom!

    The sword swung by the male elf split the air.

    “Don’t avoid it, fight against it and check each other’s feelings, Leah!”

    “This crazy guy…! This time we’re fighting with a bow and no arrows, so how can we choose to fight head-on?! And, don’t call my name carelessly!”

    – Perfect!

    Leah turned her body and attacked the male elf using the centrifugal force caused by the weight of the bow that rotated with her.

    However, the male elf, who was slow to react due to being drunk, quickly blocked it with the handle.

    This is the moment when, if you had originally fought with a sword against a sword, you would have been fatally injured.

    However, because Leah was fighting using a bow as a melee weapon, she was left with light bruises.

    The male elf took a step backwards and prepared for a thrusting stance.

    And in an instant, he leaped quickly and thrust the blade of his sword towards Leah.

    – Shoo!

    At this time, Leah’s hair was grazed and some of her beautiful blonde hair was cut off.

    The cut hair reflected golden light from the male elf’s ordinary long sword.

    Leah flexibly backtumbled backwards and struck away the opponent’s sword with her foot.

    – Blame it!

    Simple landing.

    Even though some of her hair had been cut off, she still had long, straight hair.

    With big movements comes big gaps.

    When the unknown elf man showed a huge gap, Leah did not miss this opportunity and rushed in.

    He also forcibly withstood the recoil of his body and rushed towards Leah.

    They all rushed towards each other.

    “Leah, this is the end!”

    His longsword swung diagonally from top to right to bottom diagonally to the left, and Leia struggled to hit it with her bow.

    “No!”

    Once again, this time his sword is drawn from the bottom diagonal to the right diagonally upward.

    Since Leah had already used her bow to block his longsword once, there was not enough time to turn the bow right away to block.

    Perhaps thinking that it would be better to break the bow string than to get hurt like this, Leah flicked the sword with the bowstring.

    I don’t know what material it’s made of, but it’s a bowstring that can bounce off steel.

    I couldn’t hide my surprise.

    Afterwards, the male elf, who was not tired of this, attempted to hit Leah in the stomach with his knee.

    However, Leah, who seemed to have figured out all the moves as if she had already dealt with him many times, hit the unknown man’s knee with her elbow.

    “Ugh!”

    As he lost his balance and fell, he moved backwards and put his head between the bow and string.

    “Eight!”

    Eventually, Leah tightened the bow string and strangled the elf man, causing him to faint.

    “Phew…”

    Leah sighed in relief and laid the already unconscious elf man on the floor.

    – Clap clap clap clap clap clap

    I could hear applause coming from around me.

    “Hmm… What kind of performance do you think they are performing? My dear, how were Leah’s fighting skills?”

    “It was very impressive to see the bowman subdue the swordsman without even an arrow.”

    “How did this happen?”

    Triche asked Leah.

    “Ah… I’m sorry, this friend usually nominates me… but I think I’m a bit drunk right now. Leave the rest to me and go first. I’m sorry for not being able to come out to meet you more, Lee… Please, please don’t get upset?”

    After Leah’s heartfelt words, we boarded the carriage and headed back to Violet’s estate.

    Sleeping in Illya’s arms was a poison extracted from the World Tree that had no effect on elves but was very fatal to other races.
