Chapter 131 – Roxy’s Decision

 

[…he has won]

[Aaron, please help me up.]

[Ah, sorry]

Aaron helped me got up with a laugh, and gave me a warm head pat.

[You have become stronger… no, you were already strong the first time we met. But your heart have become even stronger than back then. I am no longer able to stand against you]

[No, that’s not really the case. I’m not as experienced as Aaron still.]

[If it is just experience, you will obtain that as you grow older. It is not something you must rush. And as you grow older…you’ll realize that there are things you can’t surpass with experience alone. It’s valuable, but not the most important thing.]

He said so, then turned to the queen who was still cheering at us.

[I proclaim that Milord here is now the new Sword Saint. For he has defeated me brilliantly. With so many witnesses, there should be nothing to complain about. From now on, the future will be in the hand of this promising young man.]

[Aaron… I…]

[Even so… You have to return!!]

[No matter how difficult, and how unlikely it is, you have to return!! I believe in Fate and will wait here for your return.]

[…]

[You must not forget. Here is the place where Milord must return to]

[Being unreasonable as usual. Making this kind of arrangement…]

[Unless I did so, Milord would just opt to take the easy way. And there is no way I leave my son feeling troubled. Now then, what will Fate’s reply be?]

[…I’ll return. I’ll return… back here for sure!]

[Indeed you will. Well said. Truly, you are my son.]

[Thank you… for everything up until now.]

[Go forth. New Sword Saint Fate Barbatos]

=====

[Are you sure that you’ll come along as well?]

[Of course. Didn’t I already say it before? I’ll watch over Fate-sama until the very end.]

[Don’t say it like that… it may bring bad luck.]

[Ahahah, now that I think about it, it’s true. Aaron-sama also said the same thing.]

[It’s also to take care of your needs during the journey. I believe Eris-sama won’t mind the convenience.]

[Well… Eris indeed won’t mind.]

[I’m looking forward to our travelling!]

[Oi, we’re not out for sightseeing here.]

[I understand that, of course. It’s just that I’ve never been to Hauzen before. I heard that it’ll be a model for urban development by science magic.]

[Guess so. We’re aiming to create a livelihood that doesn’t rely on skill by making use of Gallian technology.]

[I see, I see. This journey will be fun!]

[So in the end, it’s all return to that…]

[Roxy….that getup…]

[How is it? Do I look good?]

[Un, I think you look good in it]

[Thank you! …that’s good to hear]

[The position of the head of the Heart family has returned to my father. Therefore, here I am, going with you, not as a Holy Knight, but just as Roxy.]

[Come on, let’s go! Fai.]

[Yeah… let’s go.]

[Yes.]

[Fai, what’s wrong?]

[No… it’s nothing.]

Roxy persistently asked me about what bothered me just now. In the meantime, Mimir dropped an unexpected bomb.

[Nn? Ah, could it be, because you’ll be going on a journey as the only man surrounded by three women, is that it!?]

[Eh, is that so!? Fai… wha, what is the meaning of that!?]

『This me is also here, you know?』

[You are a sword though. It doesn’t count.]

『If you say so.』

[It seems you like it. Good thing I prepared this beforehand. Un un.]

[Both are two seaters?]

[That’s right. I’ve remodelled the seat to make it wider. I’ve also tampered with the magic power feeds so that any four of us can drive it. And with the balance control, there is no need to fear that you’ll fall off.]

[Can I drive it?]

[Please, how can I say no when you look at me with such a glimmering eyes?]

[Horray!]

So it’s decided that I and Eris would take the helm of driving the bikes. Roxy would take the seat behind me. While Mimir would be with Eris.

[Excuse me. Hoop.]

[Well then, let’s go. To Hauzen.]

[Yeah, let’s go.]

[Yes.]

When magic power is transmitted through the handle bars, the wheels also began spinning. It started slowly, but I got used to it fairly quickly, so I tried to increase the magic power input.

[Uaaaaaaa, it’s really going fast]

[The wind feels so good, doesn’t it?]
