Why isn’t there something like that?

It’s a story about a person who picks up a sword that stands out in a store that he normally sees, but the store owner comes to him and says that the sword is cursed and won’t sell it.

I looked around the surrounding stores just in case, but unfortunately, there was no meaningful result.

“Nameless, it’s getting late, so I guess I should head back to the inn for today.”

“Yes, then how about buying some light food before you go?”

Certainly, the amount of fried fish that Anonymous bought is not enough for Anonymous and I to share.

It doesn’t matter to me since I don’t usually eat much, but since Mumyeong is growing up, it would be good for him to eat a lot.

He nodded.

“Then let’s do that.”

“Yes.”

For some reason, Moo-myeong let out a sigh of relief.

When I checked into the inn, I wrote down the name list just like last time, but to avoid any inconvenience, I wrote down only the first name and not the last name.

If the same lord were to manage this village, it would be a hassle, but I heard from an anonymous person that it was a different lord, so there shouldn’t be any problems.

maybe.

We entered the hotel room we had reserved and looked around.

I had briefly looked at it before when I booked a room at the inn, but it was definitely different from the inns I had visited before, perhaps because the town itself was larger, and the inn room was in good condition.

It goes without saying that the room is clean, and even the furniture, such as the table and chairs, have small patterns, so it is a room worth paying a lot of money for.

Above all, Myeong-un valued the fact that it had two beds.

I had a strange feeling that he didn’t like sleeping in the same bed as me, but it was definitely more comfortable to sleep alone than with someone else.

I washed up briefly and jumped into bed.

“Ugh… , this is paradise.”

“Teacher, please give me a bandage, ha… No, I will wash up and come back soon.”

Moo-myeong, who was rubbing his face while looking at the bandages carelessly placed on the floor, bowed his head toward me and went in.

I didn’t answer separately, just waved my hands, wrapped myself in the blanket, and buried my head in the pillow.

Uhm, by the way.

Even if we were to procure the materials for the sword that Anonymous would use ourselves, finding someone to make it would be another story.

I don’t know any good blacksmiths, and I feel uncomfortable asking a common blacksmith to make me a sword since it seems insincere since it’s the first sword I’m giving to an unknown person.

Wouldn’t it be better to ask Lily, whom we’ll meet next time, for a usable sword?

Surely, there must be some swords that the Demon King doesn’t use.

“Oh.”

Now that I think about it, asking Lily doesn’t seem like such a bad idea.

Since it’s a sword used by the Demon King, it’s actually one step ahead in terms of coolness.

I felt good and shook my legs.

Still, I don’t know when I’ll meet her, so I’ll have to get the ingredients first tomorrow.

“Sigh… .”

The thought of getting the ingredients made me feel weak again.

After lying there for a while, Myeong-mu blew out the candles in the room and lay down on the bed across from him.

“Teacher, I washed up.”

In an instant, the surroundings became dark.

“You washed it quickly.”

“Yes, it’s getting late, so shouldn’t you be going to bed soon?”

Well, it was definitely nighttime when I entered the inn, so it was too late to be awake even before washing up.

“… I see, then it’s time to go to sleep.”

I closed my eyes quietly.

Why is there a lily in front of me?

“Um, I must have fallen asleep.”

I rolled my eyes and saw the scenery around me that seemed somehow familiar.

‘Hmm, a mountain cabin?’

And in the foreground is a fancy chair that seems out of place in the mountains, and Lily is sitting on it in a cheeky pose.

He tilted his head and became lost in thought.

This must be a dream, since I never really returned to the cabin.

But why is Lily in my dreams?

I won’t be seeing Lily in my dreams because I miss her so much.

He looked at Lily with cold eyes, but Lily, who was actually in question, smiled faintly as if nothing had happened and waved his hand.

“Hello! Harang! Long time no see!”

Did Lily trap me here?

It would be embarrassing if this really happened in my dreams, but I think it’s worth a try.

“Huh, you’re really acting so nonchalant after calling me that way? Where is this place?”

Lily sat on the fancy chair, crossing her legs, still maintaining her sinister smile.

“I’m dreaming! I’m a succubus! Of course I’m dreaming! Huh? You can’t even imagine that?!”

Lily covered her mouth with the back of her hand and chuckled.

Lily’s honey-chestnut-loving attitude made me clench my fists for a moment, but I barely held on, using superhuman patience.

First, you need to understand the situation.

“… When on earth did you cast such a spell on me?”

Since I hadn’t seen you since I broke up with Lily, there wasn’t a good time to do it.

There must have been a considerable difference in skill between me and Lily, so how did she come into my dream?

Lily tilted her head.

“Uh… When did you get a bump on your head…?”

Sure, it might have been possible back then, because I wasn’t able to properly maintain my rationality at the time and couldn’t pay attention properly.

I clicked my tongue in embarrassment at not being able to properly react to the guy’s sorcery.

“Tsk, so what’s your business?”

“Yeah, we’ve only met for a long time, but you’re asking for business right away? That’s disappointing~”

Lily crossed her legs and smiled.

“This is a dream, so there’s a lot of time! You don’t have to rush!”

“Ha… My head hurts just looking at your face, so hurry up and tell me what’s going on.”

As I waved my hand slightly and spoke, the smile disappeared from Lily’s face and she took on her signature alluring, to me somewhat honey-like expression.

“Hey… This is a dream, so can you be so cocky?”

Lily, who had been sitting with her legs crossed, got up from her seat and slowly approached me.

“This isn’t a place created by magic, but my own territory created by the power of a succubus?”

“So what do you want me to do?”

Honestly, I felt like I could get out of here if I made up my mind right now, so I made a listless expression because I didn’t feel any sense of crisis even though I wanted to.

Lily saw me like that, smiled brightly, sat down next to me, and brought her face right up to my nose.

“Ugh, if you keep saying that, I get sad?”

“Haa… I don’t want to see your ugly face, so go away.”

I pushed Lily’s face away from my nose with my hand.

“Huh? What is it? How do you move?”

Lily tilted her head, blinking her large eyes repeatedly. Looking at her forehead, it seemed as if a cold sweat was running down her forehead.

I don’t like the way they all act the same way.

Thinking about it, I remembered a grown woman wearing clothes like a prostitute and sending a lewd smile to the unknown man.

Of course, even though Anonymous didn’t show any reaction, Lily’s appearance is so outstanding that you can’t let your guard down.

Okay, I need to get my hands on it.

I frowned and seriously considered it, but since we had already agreed to cooperate, I decided to let it go.

“Tsk, tell me what’s your business.”

“Ahaha, yes! Of course I should say it! Yes! I’m sorry!”

Lily pulled away from me with a pale face, then quickly regained her color and put a finger to her lips.

“Ugh, actually, we didn’t really have a way to contact you!”

“Sure, that seems like it would be a problem.”

“Right!”

Lily jumped up and assumed a strange posture.

A posture where you stick your chest out, push your hips back, make a V-shape with your fingers, and bring them to your eyes.

“So! This is so cheap! You said you came to find me!”

It was so dizzying to look at, I blushed in embarrassment for no reason.

“If you’re a succubus, you must be quite old. Isn’t it embarrassing to take such a pose? ”

“Huh? Are you Harang saying that, and not someone else? I’m getting hurt… ”

What?

“Tsk, I’ve never taken such a ridiculous stance.”

“… No, ugh!”

After giving Lily a hard time for talking nonsense, he returned to the main topic.

“Anyway, is that why you came here without notice to tell me that?”

“Ah! Yes! I think I’ll probably come here regularly from now on. Wouldn’t that be more convenient for you, Harang?”

Well, it’s good to have a contact, so no matter how much you hate seeing Lily, there’s no reason to refuse.

“Okay, I understand.”

After ending the conversation like that, I was about to leave my dream, but suddenly a thought from before I fell asleep came to mind.

“Oh, by the way, can you do me a favor?”

“Huh? Harang, you have a favor to ask of me?! What is it?!”

Hmm, to react like that.

Was it really that unexpected? He scratched his head with a somewhat awkward expression.

“Can you get me just one sword? I won’t use it, I’ll give it to an anonymous person.”

Lily wet her lips with her tongue, tasted the food again, and opened her mouth.

“Ah… that handsome guy.”

Sure, Moo-myeong was handsome, but he didn’t want to hear that from Lily, so he glared at her.

“Ahahaha… I’m kidding, even I wouldn’t touch someone who has a partner! Hmm, then I’ll come look for them next time!”

“Hmm, not really… Well, I guess so. I guess it’s good.”
