I moved to the treasure chamber with Vila and Faria.
“The ‘Cursed Sword,’ the ‘Bow of Destruction,’ and this is the ‘Gem of Annihilation’…?”
Vila brought out one cursed-looking object after another.
“S-So many…”
“The cursed objects that exist in the Demon Kingdom are gathered here. Of course, security is strict… Well, that’s it, you can proceed to store it in the dimensional space now.”
“Understood.”
Faria sent all the gathered objects into the dimensional space.
“My work here is done. Well…”
He hurriedly said as he walked away, leaving Vila and me alone.
“Truly, thank you, Sion. For now, I think we don’t have to worry about cursed objects or weapons being stolen like last time.”
“I’m glad.”
After that, I realized something.
“Hey… you’ve been talking like this all this time. It seems like you don’t even care about keeping up appearances anymore.”
“Eh? I-Is it strange? Should I go back to speaking like the Demon King?”
Vila seemed embarrassed.
“No, not at all. Your usual way of speaking is also good, but this current way is also cute.”
“Ahhh!”
Oh, Vila blushed even more.
Despite being so brave in battle, when it comes to these types of conversations, she shows her innocence… I also find that aspect of her charming.
Yes… I definitely think she is someone lovely and sweet.
“In that case, when we are alone, I will speak to you as I normally do.”
Now I know that for Vila, this is “normal,” so she is definitely intentionally adopting that Demon King-style way of speaking.
“But, if I feel embarrassed or if I feel like someone is watching us, I will speak like the Demon King again, okay?”
“Yes, understood.”
“…Sion, why do you look so happy? Am I still a peculiarity to you…?”
“No, not at all. As I mentioned before, I think you are lovely.”
…This is not good, it will only make us more shy around each other.
“Oh, Sion…”
Vila chuckled shyly.
“I have other things I want to talk about, how about we take a break with coffee first?”
“Sounds good.”
“Then, I’ll prepare it. Please, have a seat.”
Vila said, guiding me to the table.
The coffee that Vila prepares is always delicious.
I’m excited.
