{Sword}

I went outside after Indra cast a coolin spell on me. She told me it was for the sake of me not dyin even when hit by magma while I clean up my stuff.

But, whats up with that? That girl is clearly more powerful than I am. Wouldnt she actually be able to clear this dungeon by herself?

While sulkin as I was plagued by those doubts, I headed over to the magma, and dumped the whole lot inside my bag into the hot, gooey mass.

Why did I keep all this stuff nyway..? A cheap sword matchin with those of my friends back when I started out as adventurer, or a bracelet I got from my lover in a party I thought Id be able to finally settle down with. Even though I was sure Id thrown that stuff way long ago

All these things were swallowed by the magma and disappeared for eternity.

Vacantly watchin it happen, I felt, Aint hot at all.

Even though I was standin almost inside the lava, I didnt feel any heat whatsoever. That girl is really too much of a worrywart, isnt she?

Shes takin life lightly and deliberately does all kinds of dangerous stuff, and yet she makes sure for no one to die. In spite of sayin weird stuff bout me bein invincible and so on, she cast magic, worryin that the lava might hurt me in some way.

It was the same when I ran out of mana and was recoverin gradually by sleepin. She suddenly started to worry and made some weird drink.

I wonder whether shes aware how much of a devoted, jealous meddler she is.

Anyway, shes much stronger than me, and yet I dont know whether she realizes that shes not bein proper evaluated for her skills, and simply gets treated as my hanger just because shes partyin with me. Then again, she wouldnt say nythin even if she noticed itno, shed be happy, prattlin bout having some material for torturin.

That girls definitely a huge sadist. Or maybe its better to say that shes ill, seriously.

I sighed.

Even though shes such a gentle person in reality. It was that environment of hers where she wouldnt have pulled through if she didnt break and give up on everythin.

I guess the same applies to me as well, though. Thats why shes with me.

Mr. Sword, lets go back anytime soon~ Otherwise mother is going to worry~

Sure. Sorry, I was just spacin out a bit.

Being told so by Ryoku, I turned around. The bag had become completely empty. I dumped all the junk I collected up until now.

From now on Im goin to cram this bag with new stuff. Its prolly goin to be toys made by her and loot I obtained after gettin that feelin of thrill she always talks bout.

Alright. Its just been emptied out, but I spose Ill immediately fill it up with those Gun toys we used earlier.

Lets have a competition over who can hold more, oki?

Oh, sure sounds fun!

This guys a golem, isnt he?

Somehow hes talkin very casually, though? Oh well, whatever. Since hes been created by her, its nythin goes nyway, isnt it? Im pretty sure hes a livin bein by now either way.
