I Was Chosen as the Saint’s Husband

74 – The Broken Sword

It’s been six days since our honeymoon in Lagoon City.

I feel a bit sad at the thought of having to go home tomorrow

Just when I was starting to cross my mind that it wasn’t that bad when I thought about it, Stella tapped my shoulder with her finger.

Turning from her chair, I saw Stella smiling brightly as she sat on her bed and styled her hair.

She looked like she was going to go shopping in the village today.

“……Do you want to go out today?”

“It’s the last time! Today we’re going out to 4th Street!”

Yesterday, I was able to return to the villa only after looking all the way to the end of 3rd Avenue.

By the way, it looks like they’re going to 4th Street today.

Is the goal to visit every nook and cranny of this town? Was this what a honeymoon was?

“4Th Street is a place where men’s hobbies are sold.”

“Whoa…”

Was it for me?

It’s strange to refuse since you said you’d try to have a hobby this time.

“What do you want?”

“Hmm… There’s also a store that sells swords, fountain pens, ballpoint pens, and mechanical pencils…”

“A sword…”

As she wielded a sword while serving as a low-ranking priest, she felt that she wanted a sword that suited her.

By the way, the blacksmith’s shop and the sword shop in the northern town only dealt with kitchen knives and fish knives.

I was only using a sword for practice.

It would be okay to use this opportunity to purchase a practice sword that can be used exclusively.

In addition, since it is a naval city, they must be selling good quality military items and weapons.

“Then shall we go buy a sword?”

“Swords? Say anything you want! I’ll buy them all!”

“Thank you, sister.”

“hehehe.”

I stroked Stella’s hair hard.

Since you said you’d buy it, I’ll have to pick out a quality and expensive one.

“But I don’t know how to pick a sword?”

“Then Dave…Or how about asking the Templars?”

The knights of the Order of the Knights are familiar with sword training for several hours a day.

When we are still at the villa, we are continuing our training in the training room in the basement.

“Then I will.”

“Okay! Let’s go wash up then!”

Stella got up and went outside, full of energy.

She smiled slightly and followed her.

Lagoon City is a military city where navy and warships are docked.

So, it can be said that it is a planned city that was created by planning from the time of designing the city.

When you think of a planned city, you might think of a city with regular and neatly arranged buildings.

Aside from that, there are more features of a planned city than you might think.

For example, a neat and clean central government building.

Spacious and large water supply and sewage facilities, garbage landfill facilities, etc..

The planned city we think of has more hidden things than we think, and is driven by them.

And do more.

From noble mtl dot com.

Planned cities have separate addresses.

Depending on neighborhood facilities, residential facilities, commercial facilities, etc., It is divided into bungees and avenues.

Take Lagoon City as an example, it is divided from 1st Avenue to 5th Avenue.

1St and 2nd Streets are residential facilities, while 3rd and 4th Streets contain neighborhood and commercial facilities.

In a way, it may feel inconvenient because residential facilities and commercial facilities are separated, but

On the contrary, it also has several advantages, such as solving security problems and making tax management easier.

So why are you saying this?

Because Stella and I just happened to be on Fourth Avenue.

Because 1st and 2nd Streets are residential facilities, there was little to see, so I didn’t go.

Third Street has been around until now.

By the way, I have to look around from beginning to end until 4th Street to see if my aptitude is resolved, Stella is dragging me around here and there.

“Nuna, when are you going to see the sword?”

“Hmm…I still want to look back…”

“I think I’m going to die.”

I understand yesterday, but I can’t understand today.

No, I won’t.

Stella hopes she will learn how to treat her husband with respect.

It’s nice to walk around holding hands together, but there’s nothing worse than following me around a shopping mall that has nothing to do with me and I have no interest in.

“You promised to go where I want to go today, right?”

“Ugh…I did…”

“So, after shopping, let’s go see the sword.”

I looked around and saw that no one was there.

And he stroked Stella’s hair.

“Uh… I can’t help it. Then I’ll start with the sword shop I saw at the entrance.”

“Wow! Finally!”

I felt like my tears were about to fall, but I held it in.

We walked a long way back to the 4th Street entrance.

Not only me, but the attendant priests and knights also seemed very tired.

“Then wait here for a while.”

“Yes, Mrs. Ma.”

It is a break in the name of waiting.

As someone who stands above you, you should know how to be considerate to those below you.

“Dave goes in.”

“Yes, Mrs. Ma.”

I still take Dave with me.

It’s not exactly bullying, it’s a request from the other side.

He said he wanted to buy a sword or something.

Since you can’t buy a good sword in the northern town, Dave seems to be buying it here too.

Me, Stella, and Dave opened the door and went in.

The shop I opened and entered was clean and nice looking.

I thought it was a place that sold blacksmiths, like a blacksmith’s shop, or something like that.

“Welcome. Saint Empress, consort.”

“Excuse me for a minute. They say this place sells the best swords in the city…”

“hahahaha, it seems the rumors have been inflated quite a bit. Soin is just a swordsman who sells moderately useful swords.”

“You are humble.”

Stella smiles bitterly at the store owner.

The owner of this store is said to be an outstanding person who has been awarded the title of Master by the Reformation Bureau.

Nevertheless, it seems that he liked the frugal, clean, and humble appearance.

“My husband is looking for a practice sword for his sword training. Do you have any good ones?”

“Of course. How long does your wife want a sword?”

“Hmm… It would be nice to be around 110cm and 1kg.”

“If that’s the case, try holding this.”

The weapon the shopkeeper handed me was a practice weapon with no sharp edges.

The length was exactly 110cm, and the weight was about 1kg.

“Can I swing it?”

“As you wish…”

“Then…”

I gripped the sword tightly with both hands.

And then, as if striking with a blunt instrument, he raised his arms wide open.

And when I was about to hit it, I felt something uncomfortable.

“What?”

“Seobang? Why are you like that?”

“No… It’s a bit uncomfortable.”

I didn’t mind when I held it with one hand, but when I tried to hold it with both hands, it felt a little strange.

Should I say that the weight is biased?

“Storekeeper, this weapon looks strange.”

“My husband seems to have noticed something strange about this weapon.”

“Yes, the weight is a bit off. The handle is very heavy and the top is light.”

If the weight is biased in this way, it is easy to break.

If the sword breaks, I’ll get hurt, and if I get hurt, the church will be ruined.

“Anyway, your wife deserves to use a proper sword.”

“Yes? Then this…”

“It’s a shiny test sword.”

Surely…

It’s a practice sword because it doesn’t even have a sharp blade, but there are colorful decorations attached to it.

To the point where I wondered if the weight of the sword was heavy because of this decoration.

“Then I’ll bring a practice sword.”

“Yes…”

I looked at Stella when I saw the store owner go inside to get the sword.

Stella also tilted her head, saying she didn’t know what was going on.

“As expected…Do I have to go through a test to buy a master’s weapon…”

“What do you know?”

“I heard back in my hometown that the people who are called the country’s great generals choose who to sell their weapons to.”

“Hmm…You mean you won’t sell your stuff to anyone?”

That sounds pretty cool.

No, I think it’s really cool.

On the surface, it seems like they are selling weapons to anyone, but in reality, they are selling proper weapons only to those they choose.

I think it’s such a cool thing to call it a belief.

“I’m envious of you, it seems like you’ve been chosen.”

“Dave, can’t you buy it?”

“It seems that you only saw the body that followed… Ehh…”

Dave sighs saying that he couldn’t buy the master’s sword.

Looking at Dave like that, I tapped him on the shoulder as he smiled bitterly.

“Let’s go to the eastern village next time and buy a sword.”

“…Really?”

“If you want to go to the northern town anyway, you have to go to the eastern town.”

There are things I can go and buy.

It’s not bad to buy the things you want to buy from the attendant priests and maids.

You have to provide good service to become a good owner.
