The Battle Mage in the Labyrinth City

Chapter 33: Flowing Star Blade

At night.

Kaguya sat on the rooftop and looked up at the night sky. The knife box containing the fragments of "Higanbana" lay quietly in front of her.

Gojono Kaguya carries the curse of the family.

Although the curse has been cut off by the former main god, Kiyohana, it still exists.

And the proof is the broken Higanbana in front of her.

To be honest, after the initial panic, Kaguya was not very sad about the broken Higanbana. Instead, she felt an indescribable sense of relief.

If it weren't for Shirataki's insistence, she wouldn't even want to repair it.

What's a little distressing is that her strength will decrease a lot without Higanbana.

As a legacy of the Gojo family, Higanbana has made many specializations for the Gojo family's secret techniques. It's hard for ordinary knives to be as easy to use as Higanbana.

For high-level adventurers, the quality of weapons is often an important factor in determining victory or defeat.

For example, in today's battle against Shirataki, if the weapon in her hand was more powerful, she would have a chance to fight back even after Wu Guang was shattered by Shatter Tyrant.

"Better weapons."

Kaguya had a headache.

Although it was not as outrageous as what Goddess Astraea said, the economic situation of Astraea's family was indeed not optimistic.

Because the dark faction has become more active recently, they have less time to explore the dungeon.

As an exploration family, exploring the dungeon is almost their only source of income.

With the reduction in income, even maintaining the daily activities of the family is a bit stretched, not to mention using money to buy a second-level weapon that can be compared with Higanbana.

If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have swelled my face and pretended to be rich.

Kaguya regretted it a little.

"Hey!"

There was a noise behind her.

She turned her head and saw the instigator of everything landed lightly and sat next to her very cheekily, holding a beautifully decorated gift box in his hand.

"What are you doing here?"

"I came to apologize to you." Shirataki smiled and shook the gift box in his hand.

"Didn't I say no?!"

Kaguya frowned. She was a strong-willed person and didn't like others to disobey her.

"You can say what you want, but I'm not such a shameless person. I have to admit my mistakes."

Shirataki said this and handed over the gift box in his hand:

"Take it. I ran all over Orario to buy this with great difficulty."

"Huh?"

"You mean, you ran all over Orario to buy a second-level weapon? How is that possible?"

Although the second-level weapon is precious, it is not unavailable for sale. It's a bit exaggerated to say that you ran all over Orario to buy it.

"No, no, no, I'm talking about this box. And how can a mere second-level weapon be compared with what I prepared?"

"Oh? You actually praised it.So generous? "

A smile appeared on her delicate face. It was true that the Quexie was a weapon beyond imagination, but the more precious something was, the more expensive it was. Kaguya didn't think the boy could take out a weapon that could surpass the second weapon.

"However, since this is your intention, I will accept it with reluctance."

The moment she opened the gift box, Kaguya's eyes condensed and her breathing stopped.

"This, this is? ! ”

What appeared in front of Kaguya was a long sword that was as exquisite as a work of art.

The red blade was shining, and the blade was like magma flowing and turning into brilliant gold. If you look closely, you can even see the illusion of a falling meteor.

[Flowing Star Meteor Knife]

[Owner: None (sealed)]

[All abilities are improved, attack power is corrected, and there is a certain probability of summoning meteorites when attacking]

“Flowing Star Meteor Knife,” Shirataki said softly: “Although it is not the most suitable, I personally feel that this red color suits you very well.”

“Huh?”

Got an unexpected answer.

“Like a meteor chasing its own justice, even if it is only for a moment, it will bloom with the most brilliant light. ”

Shirataki looked at the sky: "You are different from me. You have noble ideals and the motivation to work for them.

This is beautiful, but this beauty will also make you fall quickly.

But unfortunately, I hate tragedy the most. ”

"So you choose to entrust this sword to me?"

Touching the blade lightly, Kaguya can feel the power contained in it.

It is not as powerful as Shirataki's Quexie, but it is still a rare magic weapon in the world.

"Pfft, aren't you just a villager who delivers equipment to heroes in the hero story?"

For the first time, Shirataki saw a sincere smile on Kaguya's face.

"Yes. Let heroes like you save the world. As an ordinary person, I just need to live my life well. ”

Shirataki stretched himself and leaned back on the roof: “Although it’s unlikely.”

First there was the Dark Faction, then there was the Great Struggle. He didn’t think he could escape from this chaotic vortex. This was the inevitable development of the world.

From the moment he killed Sunnis, many things were doomed.

Although there was still the option of evading with the Wheel of Creation, he didn’t want to escape again after evading once.

That gloomy look was too embarrassing.

“Heh, you’re really a contradictory guy.”

It was the first time Kaguya saw someone as contradictory as Shirataki.

He said he just wanted to live an ordinary life, but the things he did were more outrageous than the last.

With enough combat power to rival the top adventurers, he defeated the Dark Faction cadres and the Lv6 floor master by himself.

If it was an ordinary lifeThat's it. Orario must have been a ruin.

"Indeed, I think so myself. But people are inherently contradictory. If they are not contradictory, they are not people, but portraits."

"That's a weird statement."

Like the boy, Kaguya also lay down and hugged the gift box to her chest.

Looking at the bright night sky, even through the clothes and the gift box, the warmth of the Flowing Star Blade still reached her body, and then flowed through her body, making her feel comfortable and at ease.

The rooftop fell into silence. Neither Shirataki nor Kaguya spoke again.

After a long time, just when Shirataki was dazed and about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard this sentence.

"Thank you. Also, I like the gift you gave me very much."
