「Wha……」

Seeing the Status that was displayed by the 『Reveal Crystal』, Nefas was at a loss for words.

It wasn’t a story of him just being surprised. Things had changed way too much.

First, his rank had risen. A rank was something that represented the quality of a person’s strength, and Nefas was originally at rank AA. It had now made a sudden rise to SS.

Furthermore, the 『God of Wind’s Divine Protection SSS』. This was already at a level where he would receive passionate invitations to become an elite priest in the country.

Technical skills called 『Guidance to the Grand Temple of Wind』 and 『Protective Wind』 were also added, but Nefas had never heard of technical skills like that.

Next was his occupation. Nefas’s occupation field should have been displayed as 『Edius Adventurer School Student』 up until now. Nevertheless, what was currently displayed was 『Wind Temple Knight』.

For example, in the Grand Altlis Temple of the St. Altlis Kingdom that worshipped the God of Life Philia, the occupation of all priests would be 『Priest』, and wouldn’t display something like 『Priest of Life』. It was the same even if they were the Head Priest.

And then, the knights that defend the temple would be displayed as 『Temple Protection Knight』.

In other words, there has been no precedent of an occupation that displayed something like 『Wind Temple Knight』, and it was clear that it was a special occupation.

The most remarkable feature was the equipment. This went for the green outfit that had changed even its appearance from his original clothes and became 『Wind Temple Knight Clothes』, but Nefas became speechless by the sword that had his own name attached to it.

For people, it was probably an honor that could cause them to shed tears of joy, but Nefas didn’t feel that way. Far from being happy about it, instead, he did nothing but worry about how he would explain the situation in cases where he used a 『Reveal Crystal』 from now on.

Even though it was momentous enough just to meet with the God of Wind Wyrm, to have obtained numerous divine protections that could be said to be excessive after having overcome the trial in the end, from Nefas’s position as the eldest son of a Duke House of the St. Altlis Kingdom, there was also the possibility of being viewed as a political problem.

After watching Nefas, who was thinking something like “I guess this means that I’ll need to leave the house to my future little brother……”, Wyrm turned around to face Nino.

「Now then, next is you huh. In your case, your situation is a lot more special than Nefas, but I can similarly place you under my protection, you know?」

「That sort of thing is already covered.」

When Nino answered like that, she tightly hugged Vermudol.

While watching that, Wyrm nodded.

「Well, I thought that was the case. That being said, not giving you anything is a problem that concerns my pride……I’ll be borrowing your swords, okay?」

「Ah.」

After drawing her pair of swords with a speed that not even Nino could perceive, Wyrm fixedly gazed at it.

「Fumu, fumu. These are……they’re normal Holy Silver swords, aren’t they. It’s rare to see swords this ordinary used this far. I’m amazed that they didn’t break in the earlier fight.」

「If you have problems with them, give them back.」

「Whoa there.」

After nimbly avoiding Nino’s hand, Wyrm raised a voice saying “that’s it”.

「Yosh, I’ve decided. The reward for you will be this.」

At the same time as those words, the pair of swords in Wyrms hands broke down and turned into grains of silver. And then, the grains gathered together in the next instant……and once again turned into the shape of a pair of swords within Wyrm’s hands.

However, what had appeared were swords that had designs completely different from the swords they were up until now.

It was a design that had green as the basic tone. Even the silver sword blade would be tinged with green depending on the degree of light.

「I suppose you can call them Wind God Silver curved blades. Their new names are Curved Blade Arrelis and Curved Blade Ranrelis. Take care of them, okay?」

「Didn’t really ask for them.」

「What, you’ll be crying in joy really soon. Besides, if you intend on fighting with swords from now on as well, there’s nothing better than possessing good swords.」

Although she clicked her tongue at Wyrm who returned the curved blades to the scabbards on Nino’s waist, Nino didn’t deny those words.

To swordsmen, their swords were equivalent to being their partner. As long as they were entrusting their lives to them, it was only natural for them to seek out even better swords.
