Asuka of the Scarlet Sky

Worlds Hero and the Treasure tool (3)

Eh? What did you say just right now?

On our way back from the castle, Asukas face paled as if shes dying.

I said that I had a quarrel with Captain Risty

Yuuto walking next to Asuka is playing with dead leaves in his right hand as if he lost interest. Asuka is looked at that Yuuto with amazement.

F-Fight, you mean. Why?

Asuka forgetting why he was angry, Yuuto looked at him as if saying what are you doing? Yuuto stopped moving to Asukas question.

She made a fool out of me. Calling me a small fry even if Im in 908th rank. Even you would feel offended with that right?

G-getting offended, you1

Yuuto mixed in some lies. Asuka whos unaware of it stares at Yuuto. Just what had you done?, she was worried.

It cant be helped. Youre keeping your ability as a secret after all. So even I would get angry if they called you a small fry

Asuka sighed as shes having a headache. Yuuto told that Asuka that its fine.

Isnt it okay? If I get serious, even captain Risty would be instantly killed. Theres no problem

Theres a lot of problems! A lot! Why did it come to you being able to kill nor not kill! Risty-sama is a superior! A superior! Were just assigned, why did you set your eyes on the superior suddenly!

Aah, geez, Asuka dishevel her head. Right now, Yuuto and Asuka are public servants. Of course, Yuuto understands Asukas complains.

Yuuto himself is a type that stays away from the discord as much as possible.

Well, Im really fine. In the end, for some reason that person laughed

L-laugh you say. Its surely a laugh about putting you down. That must be

Hii she shouted in unease, Asuka glanced sideways ang Yuuto recalled the events from earlier.

Hou. Your angry for your master not for yourself? At least you have some manliness in you. Well, hang in there

Saying that, Risty went away while laughing. Leaving with her palm opened, it was provoking for Yuuto.,

That brown loli, Yuuto grit his teeth in frustration.

W-well. Theres no use thinking about it. Apart from that, listen. During todays soldier meting, the princess decided to give me an alias

Without realizing Yuutos expression as she was walking at his back, Asuka matched her arms happily. Yuuto turned as he heard Asuka said an unfamiliar word.

Alias?

Thats right, an alias. Its given only to ten people, its an alias that you would call yourself and would be admired by the other heroes. Even I, did think about it secretly. T-thats, eeeh. For that day to really come

*deedee*, Asuka squirms her body happily. Yuuto doesnt get it but its the greatest honor for the soldier in this world to receive an alias.

Alias? Sounds like chuunibyou. When you say its just the 10, then Risty also has one?

Isnt it obvious? Risty is calledSoutou2, theres no person in the kingdom who doesnt know it.

Except for you, Asuka turned back from Yuuto. Even if you say that an otherworlder wont know that, Yuuto kept silent and pretended to listen to Asukas story while saying Yes Yes

Well, aside from that, since were already at the capital, we should buy a souvenir for Sasha. I think sweets would be good

The aroma of flour and butter flowing from the side of the road, Asuka stops walking. Her eyes were shinning as if it was saying I want to eat

Yare Yare, Yuuto also stopped seeing that Asuka.

Asuka-sama, Ill go out with Sasha for a bit

Next day, after the meal was over, Yuuto called out to Asuka. On his side, was Sasha wearing a maid uniform bowing to Asuka.

N? Where are you going?

Asuka put down the cup of tea on the table. *Poriri*, a cookie crunched in her front teeth.

Were just going to buy tools to repair the roof. Since the luggage will likely be huge, I will also go

Saying so, Yuuto and Sasha headed to the exit. Asuka thought that she would also go with them but, Asuka had given up from standing and waved her hand.

See you

A crispy, sweet flavor spreads in the mouth of Asuka.

Uun. Now that I think of it, its been a while since Im alone

Asuka looked around while stretching. Looking at the silent mansion, Asuka uuun curled her back.

As expected, its recent

Whats recent is the love affair of Yuuto and Sasha. Though it didnt enter the small body, but not matter how you look at it, it was a copulation of men and women.

Could he be forcing her? Nope, I guess not

Furthermore, there were no expression of dislike seen from Sasha. Rather it was a face of a woman with her lover in front of her.

If Sasha consents the relationship, theres no room for her to intervene, Asuka is at her wits end.

However, shes my maid

She had no intention of claiming ownership of Sasha by paying money, but it wasnt interesting for Asuka. Just where in her mind she gets irritated from it? Asuka had no experience in man and woman experience.

Well, its fine. Even a guy like him likes a child like Sasha

Asuka looks at her hand while laughing at herself. She has some ways to go to be a beauty, her life was only to wield a sword since shes a child. Naturally, shes not trained to be a bride.

In addition, Asuka expressed her gratitude to Yuuto seriously.

Asuka never imagined that the day where she will live in her own mansion comes. She had a delusion of becoming a hero, but she never had a concrete thought of her future.

At any rate, An Alias it is. W-what could it be? Im looking forward to it

Asuka stood up while relaxing her face. From becoming a fledging swordsman to getting an alias, it was all thanks to Yuutos treasure tools. Glad that everything changed from this past three months, Asukas heart is clenching.

Hey, certainly this room was

fun fun, in front of Asuka who was humming while walking, a single door came into view. The stairs lead to an underground. In that door.

Yuutos workshop. He told me to not absolutely not enter

*Jii*, Asuka stared at the door, Beyond this point, Yuuto would start making his treasure tools. Becoming an obstruction on the image, and he also said to absolutely not enter because its dangerous, A whirlpool swirled in Asukas mind.

I-if its for a bit. Its okay right?

She extend her hand on the knob of the door. That moment *Pakiiiin*, a sound of cracking echoed.

N, Ahn3

*Kyumu*, the tip of Asukas left chest tightened lightly. Asuka involuntarily let out a voice, eeh, she muttered.

For him to turn it using magic. Just what does he not want for others to see?

Fufufu, Asukas face distorted evilly.

Asukas gratitude to Yuuto is at max, but his mean treatment on her is another story. While thinking that she may grasp his weakness, Asuka pulled the knob.

Noow then, whats in here?

Feeling her heart beating, Asuka went down the stairs to the basement

Waa, amazing. Theres a lot of weapons

The underground workshop, in one word it would be suspicious.

Several swords and spears leaned against the stone wall. There were some elegant equipment with shape she dont even know how to use, its arrangement narrowed the room.

If theres a lot of it, he shouldve given one at least

Asuka looked at them while muttering but, Asuka knows that its impossible. Perhaps, some of them are unfinished, or some treasure tools are in adjustment.

These things seems untouchable. Scary Scary

Just what kind of ability does he equip? She doesnt know. Asuka advances, careful not to touch it. Without the treasure tool in her chest, she wont be staying in here.

Oh, A desk? Fuun. So he properly research-ish it

Asuka stopped at the wodden desk thats in the back of the workshop.

On the top of the desk are filled with incomprehensible things.

A dagger that fires out lightning, a string connected to a simple thin plate, Asuka took the sketchbook.

Asuka flipped over the large scale scholarly memo. Various designs of treasure tools were drawn in it, there were some notes recorded too.

Those were characters she never saw before, Asuka frowned.

Ah, this isnt my equipment. Uwaa, hes really thinking seriously

Asukas finger stopped on a certain page. It was a crimson sword and armor, distinct details were written on the other line.

I cant read it but, its filled out with lots of absurd things. Eh, eeeh

Seeing the drawing, Asuka felt embarrassed and blushed. Though she felt guilty for entering without permission, still she felt happy, Asuka closed quietly closed the sketchbook while saying ehehehe

N, what could this be?

A folded fabric on the desk caught her sight. Asuka lifted it.

Clothes? Hey, eeeeeeeeeeeeeee!?

It lightly spread in her view, then Asukas voice echoed through the workshop.
