Chapter 1385
“Deek!” Alysia threw her arms around me, and I gave her a hug.
“When did she become so close to Master?” Terra asked worriedly.
Returning to the boss room was rather easy. I just had to make a portal connecting myself to Alysia. Alysia, Pait, and Dav were left behind when King Diorite went down. They had been King Diorite’s prisoners for a little over a week, so I was immediately concerned if they were alright. As I was checking over Alysia, she gave a blush.
“I’m okay, I was unharmed, and he said my connection to the sword will be restored as soon as I enter your soul world.”
“Sword?” Terra frowned.
“Ah, that’s right! Terra, you missed a couple of things since I went away. Well, various things happened and Alysia is my sword now.”
I sent Alysia to my soul world, and then I lifted my hand, summoning her back out as my blade. A moment later, that blade glowed and then returned to the shape of Alysia, but she was whole again.
“I’ve finally returned…” Alysia let out a gasp of relief. “This feels much better.”
Terra looked at Alysia somewhat warily. “What is this? Another soul connected to an object? Master has replaced me!”
“Huh?”
“Master, please don’t say I’m disposable!” Terra looked up at me with tearful eyes.
“You’re not, you’re not!” Although I said that, I had upset Terra greatly.
As I tried to calm her down by reassuring her that a sentient sword was nothing like a sentient guardian golem, Pait cut in. “We’re fine too, thanks for asking.”
“Master acts upset, but he learned a lot of history from King Diorite and was very happy about it,” Dav added.
“You! When have you become so willful?” He shot me a glare. “It’s your fault! You allow your girls to act that way and they’re a bad example on Dav.”
“M-master… I’m a maid, not your slave though?”
“You’re lucky that Esmore doesn’t have legalized slavery. Otherwise, I would have enslaved you a long time ago!”
“Master, what are you saying.” Her face turned pink. “Are you afraid I’ll leave you so much?”
“Leave me?” He blinked. “No, I’m just saying that I want you by my side forever.”
“Eeep…” Dav stiffened, her pink coloring turning red.
“Eep?” Pait cocked his head and reaching out to touch her forehead. “Are you sick or something?”
“Master! How can you say such a thing?” Dav suddenly shoved Pait to the ground, and then spun around, racing away.
Not wanting her to wander off someplace dangerous where she was likely to get hurt, I tossed her into my soul world. Pait stood back up, patting the dirt off his butt from where she had shoved him to the ground.
“What was that all about?” He asked in confusion, looking at me.
I shrugged. “Girls are confusing. You’ll never understand them, so stop trying…”
“I see… I’ll take your advice!”
Exactly. Just to prove my point, Terra and Alysia were both giving me cold looks after that exchange with Pait, and I had no clue why. Surely, women were something meant to be love and admired, but never understood.
