Chapter 157 – Ep.10 – Cloak
***
It didn’t take long for the sisters to wake up. Everyone woke up naturally and quietly, as if waking up from a short sleep.
However, after waking up, there was no choice but to have a great commotion. All of them raised their voices and clashed with each other’s opinions.
“This is nonsense! How could this be! To lend a hand to a dragon!”
“Fuck it all away, how are we supposed to trust a bastard who was fighting us just a few hours ago?”
But what we need is time.
For those of us who don’t have much to spare, the help that can shorten time is desperate and desperate.
“…They say they’ll help, so let’s get help. If we’re going at this speed, we won’t be able to arrive on time.”
“That’s true, but they say that Delrin persuaded them well and brought them in. It’s all over, so why do we need to be so heated?”
That’s why everyone had to nod their heads in the end. Kaede and Riko didn’t easily relax, but since everyone still wanted to accept Levy’s help, the two of them must have followed public opinion.
“Hey, you. Tell me straight.”
However, Rico’s doubts did not fade. Rather, the harder I tried to play her, the more her keen intuition pierced the secrets of her one-night stand.
“What did you do with that bastard? Tell me now. We fight like we’re going to kill each other, but the next day, does it make sense that you and I suddenly walked hand in hand? Even if you really say shit, you have to do it to the fullest…”
“Geez, it’s true. Mr. Levy didn’t really mean to fight. So, after all the sisters had left, she secretly came down to Lemün…”
“Haa- this bastard is real.”
Rico grinded his teeth. All sorts of impure inferences kept running in her head, even though she didn’t want to think about it.
“It’s true. I could have killed all of you, but my special generosity gave everyone a chance. Don’t be too hard on the boy.”
Levy was the only one who actively defended me. Everyone else couldn’t accept the relationship that had suddenly changed overnight and continued to doubt.
“If we compete with you guys in this form, it’s not clear who will win. Now, let go of your anger and prepare to leave. And, lower your voice… I’m afraid the dwarves will be surprised.”
“Yes, it’s strange that someone so strong suddenly turns 180 degrees. What are you hiding?”
Chichi asked Levi. Her question was full of her doubts about her Levi. Rather than doubting her me, Chichi suspected that I was possessed by Levi and misled her work.
“Where is there anything to hide? When you live a lonely life, you end up clinging to short-lived relationships like I did. I just wanted to give.”
However, Levy continued to answer each one carefully with her own leisure. She had no qualms about her. She was envious of her long years of experience.
“…Anyway, it’s to our benefit to send them far away! Everyone, don’t be so mean and pack your things quickly…! I negotiated hard and got it!”
“Ke-Heng! Little man is in a very bad mood!”
With my words, everyone’s argument is over.
With the exception of Rico, who was sure of escaping the night, everyone was able to get over it.
“Thank you very much. Mr. Delrin has led things in the best direction, so we should all be smiling rather than angry.”
Helen gently placed her hand on her shoulder, praising her behavior. Her hands were quite large and soft, so the feeling on her shoulder wasn’t too bad.
“However, I heard from the lord of the castle in the morning, before leaving the road, he told me to stop by and get a reward. Why don’t you say goodbye to the dwarves first and then go? Your dragon… Please wait here for a while.”
————————————–
As Helen said, at Lemün Square, where reconstruction was in full swing, the dwarves gathered in a circle and were waiting for us.
Their faces had youthful smiles and the vitality of life had returned, so just facing them made me smile.
“Ah, warriors!”
However, our last goodbye didn’t end with each other’s smiles. There was something in the Dwarves’ hands. Berial, the lord of Lemün’s castle, carried it and walked toward me.
“While thinking about what to honor the hard work and glory of the warriors, I’m thinking of dedicating a treasure that has been passed down from generation to generation to us Dwarves!”
Berry Al took it in his arms and held it high. Her face and body were completely covered by it.
“Papa, please accept it quickly…!”
I reached out my hand for Belial, who was suffering because she couldn’t see properly even when standing on tiptoe. Towards the soft rag-like thing she was holding.
“This…”
“The warriors accepted it!”
When I lifted it up, the dwarves cheered and clapped again. In an instant, the square became noisy like an elementary school sports day, and happiness overflowed with everyone’s pride and joy.
“Is it silk…?”
“Aren’t there clothes?”
“No. It’s a cloak.”
The older sisters approaching my shoulder in turn spit out their impressions. Among them, the dwarves cheered for Chichi’s appreciation.
“Cloak!”
“You got it right away!”
Amidst the compliments of the girls clapping their hands happily, I unfold my cloak. The cape, which was embroidered in red, was decorated with black patterns that did not make sense, and the decorations that were tastefully decorated were not excessively shining.
“But why me…?”
When it comes to equipment, most of them have increased stats or are endowed with something special.
If so, it would be better if the other sisters participating in the battle wore capes.
“It’s a man’s cloak. A cloak that covers the body.”
Chichi tells me why. So, this is not the fancy cape worn by heroes like Superman or Batman, but a hijab-like cape worn by women in the Middle East to hide themselves.
“Ah… Like that…”
“However, it is quite large to be made for Dwarves. Is your treasure true?”
Neva asks the dwarves. If it were a secret treasure of the dwarves, it would have been made for the dwarves to wear, so it is only natural that it would not suit humans.
“It’s a treasure! It’s very precious!”
“It’s a cloak for the most beautiful woman in the prophecy who will change the world!”
The dwarves couldn’t hide their pride and were bragging about it. So, to summarize their explanation, it is a cloak made for a man from a certain prophecy.
“Ah, ahaha…”
In a way, it can be said that it is a symbolic object. Doesn’t it feel like Excalibur? I don’t know who it is, but if I can wear this cloak, I feel like I’m being admired as a beauty…
“Wear it on! Wear it!”
“I think it will suit you well!”
Something… If I don’t wear it right now, I feel like the atmosphere will be sluggish, so I try to spread out the cloak with a smile. Its antique atmosphere exudes an atmosphere of unparalleled beauty. It’s like an atmosphere that seduces me and calls me.
“Do you know how to wear it?”
Chichi steps in instead and takes the cloak, then looks over at me and prepares to put it on.
“Eva, take it from the back. Come on, like this…”
“Ah, four…!”
Two witches who are accustomed to wearing cloaks wrap them around me. It’s not a bad feeling to start from the shoulders and embrace the body line generously. I feel like I’ve become a very precious person…?
“Awesome! Fits great!”
“Wow!”
Unfamiliar reactions like those of kindergarteners are popping up here and there. I feel bitter for a moment because I feel like I was dragged half-forced by girls and dressed as a woman, but when I see the eyes of the other sisters who are watching me, that bitterness disappears.
“Oh, West!”
“Does it look good on you?”
“Mmm, that’s cool… Yeah…”
Even Eva blushes and gives a good review. Helen also smiled and nodded her head to show that they matched well, and Rico’s eyes, which had been glaring at me from a distance, also calmed down a bit.
“Yeah, what… Does it suit you…?”
“It’s beautiful. It’s even more noble.”
Neva carefully smooths the folds of her cloak and pours out praise until her mouth wears out. On the contrary, my face is about to turn red.
“That cloak is the pride of us Dwarves, and it is a cloak made according to the prophecy! This must be the time of the prophecy, for sure!”
The dwarves are excited again and dance. At first glance, they look like little babies dancing, but they are so cute that they calm down.
“You’ve been talking about the prophecy before. What is the prophecy?”
Feeling quite good, I asked Belial indirectly. Did he become the main character in the prophecy?
“They say that the man chosen by God will come down and benefit the world widely!”
“The guy is so cool and cute!”
Belial and the dwarves smiled and said.
Their small and cute prophecies are even endearing.
“They kept going around and saving the world!”
“Then won’t the snake get eaten?”
“No, it must have been a crocodile, not a snake?”
“And resurrect in three days!”
“Then become a ninja?”
…Except for the odd plot. It seems that the dwarves created a legend by scribbling various delusions on their own.
I think it’s better to just listen casually.
Anyway, enjoying the fit of the cape they gave us, we leave Lemün.
Beyond the small kingdom of dwarves,
Where to go next
The southern end of the continent where the Elven Kingdom is located!
And,
The giant whale Job only stays for 3 days.
Until Job arrives, there is only one week left.
10 days if you add 3 days a week.
Therefore, the remaining time is exactly 10 days!
Within 10 days, you must ride on Job’s back.
