Chapter 97 Trisha’s Blade
"Hey! Don't just flash your sword like that!"
"Be careful when unsheathing!"
"Come on...!"
Trisha hurriedly turned and apologized to the passersby who complained about her sudden unsheathing.
As she did so, Rey noticed a thin wooden casing that hung behind her. It was placed so vertically that no one would notice it if she stood before them.
'A-ah! The hilt was behind her, huh?'
"It looks great, right?" Rey's attention returned to the blade as Trisha presented it to him.
'Hmm...' Rey's eyes thoroughly observed the blade, and a pleasantly surprised expression took over his face a moment after.
'This... this looks really nice!'
"May I...?" He asked, placing his hands forward to collect the blade.
"S-sure. Just be careful."
Rey nearly yanked the blade from the surprised Trisha, closely looking at the entire sword—from the hilt, to the edges, and everything else about it.
'It's not the best I've seen, and it doesn't have any Enchantment, but... the workmanship is really good!'
Rey wasn't an expert in swords at all, but after checking out a ton of weapons—from the ones that the Hobgoblins wielded, to the more sophisticated kind ... up to the most expensive ones in the capital—he had developed an eye for these things.
His developed taste told him that the blade in front of him was of high quality.
~WHOOSH!~
~SWOOSH!~
He flapped his hand slightly and swung the blade a few times, immersed in the weapon.
Once he realized how he was obsessing over the sword, Rey cleared his throat and handed it back to the stunned Trisha.
"A-ahem... This is a good sword."
"R-right?! I can't believe I got it with just one Gold." Trisha beamed as she stuttered.
When others talked about this, Rey had gotten mad. But the same couldn't be applied to Trisha.
'This sword is probably worth more than 1 Gold. If it was Enchanted, it would enter the realm of Platinum Coins...'
Rey wondered how Trisha was able to get the sword.
"Where did you buy it from?"
'It really is a good sword...' At this point, Rey didn't hide his smile.
As Trisha kept bragging about her sword and the other adventures she had in the town, Rey could see the excitement on her face.
... In her eyes.
'Seems like she really had fun. The more I listen, the less apprehensive I become of her.'
Rey began to see Trisha in a different light.
She wasn't just some girl-boss who sought after strength and nothing else. She also wasn't so stern that she couldn't be lighthearted—though Rey considered her attempt at humor to be a little too extreme.
He still felt a tingle under his pants once in a while.
Overall, though, Trisha was ultimately a girl.
A really nice girl.
'Still... I have to wonder...'
Rey glanced around him and saw that most of their classmates were already present. A lot of Trisha's friends were around as well.
'... Why is she talking to me about all this stuff?'
At this point, Rey's eyes caught Alicia, who seemed to be walking away for some reason.
'When did she arrive?' He thought, realizing he never saw her until just now.
'She looks a bit upset...' Alicia didn't glance in his direction even once.
'I guess she's mad that I ditched her.'
Rey knew he had to apologize properly later, and perhaps give her the gift he held deep in his [Inventory].
For now, though, he had to continue his conversation with Trisha.
