C88 – A gift from Calcedonia
Translator: yompyamper
Levantis, the capital city of Largofili Kingdom.
A duo of men and women are walking in a corner of the city of Levantis.
-The two likely belong to the same temple because they wear a priest’s uniform with a crest of the same design – although there are some differences if you look closely.
“... Isn’t it a nuisance to ask you to do something unreasonable this time?”
“No, that’s not true, because when Calcedonia made that large order, my parents cried out in joy.”
“Oh, that ’s okay... but is the product that got ordered already finished?”
“Yes, my father and my brother told me that, but even though the armor still seems to be in progress, only the sword is made.”
“Yes, thank you, Mr. Needs.”
“No, thank you very much.”
The two who are walking side by side are Calcedonia, the priest of the Savaiv Temple with the title of “Holy Maiden”, and her husband’s friend, who is also a senior priest of the Savaiv Temple.
Now, they are heading to a store that is Needs’s parent’s home, a store that mainly deals with weapons used by monster hunters.
By the way, although they are walking side by side, their positioning is not not “next to each other” where their shoulders are lined up, but “following” where Needs walks several steps ahead.
They walk for a while as Needs leads. A shop appears in front of them.
“That’s yours Needs ...?”
“Yes. That is my home, and the Dwyer’s arms store where my father and big brother are working together.”
is the home of the Needs brothers. It is classified as one of the largest shops in the city that sells armor.
Even now, many people who seem to be monster hunters are entering and leaving the store.
Needs guides Calcedonia into the store.
As seen from the exterior, the inside of the store is quite large. In that wide space, various weapons and armor are lined up, and a number of monster hunters are deciding on items.
There is a man in the back of the store.
A man who looks very similar to Needs and seems to be slightly older than Needs. He is probably Needs’s brother.
It seems like the man that looks like Needs has noticed them, he approaches and talks with a large smile.
“Oh, welcome home, Needs. No, today you said you were bringing important customers ...?”
“Oh, that’s right. This is ──”
Needs steps aside so that his older brother can see the Calcedonia behind him.
Needs’s older brother — Called Eke — Opens his eyes wide when he sees Calcedonia.
“Oh, hey, Needs... No, this woman is really...”
“Yes, big brother. She’s from the Savaiv Temple ...”
When Needs speaks, Eke suddenly shouts at the back of the store.
“This is hard !! Father! Mother! The ‘important customer’ that Needs talked about is a woman! Is this person becoming Needs’s bride!?”
That said, Eke rushes into the back of the store with a bang.
Needs and Calcedonia left on the spot can only follow Eke with their eyes.
Certainly, Needs told them he’s bringing “an important customer” to his brother and parents today.
However, he said it was an “important customer” in the sense that it ordered a large order from, but from the perspective of Eke and their parents, Needs being their son and brother, if he says that there is an “important customer” and the customer he brings is a woman the same age as him, they can’t help misunderstanding like Eke did.
At this time, Needs finally realises that his family has misunderstood.
And at the same time, feels a cold chill behind his back.
He looks back awkwardly and hears a bang.
There is the “Holy Maiden” with a very “attractive” smile.
No, no. definitely not ‘Holy Maiden’ now, but definitely ────
“Needs?”
“Ha ha ha!”
Calcedonia’s voice does not change. However, to Needs at this moment, this voice sounds like a god’s angelic voice who shows up just before death.
“... Family misunderstanding of my family, firmly, clearly, surely, definitely...”
“Hahahaha !! E-even if it were another life...”
Responding to the cold “What” released from Calcedonia, who smiles, Needs goes down to his knees like a knight who worships the king, and bows deeply.
