“Do you want to catch the slime?”

Elizabeth, Evan’s three-year-old sister, was in the fashion of saying a series of ‘Brother Evan’ words these days.

“I’ll make you a bigger one next year!”

If he met the main character someday, would he remain by Evan’s side?

“Well…”

“Uh, isn’t that Evan? Why don’t you eat something? This is the most delicious.”

“Yes.”

“He must have completed it in time.”

Evan’s birthday was as loud as ever. Shine thought her birthday was nothing more than an excuse for the Marquis’ family to revel and enjoy, but she decided to go along with the flow for now.

“Just what is this… Slime?”

“Liz made it! Cute!”

“Well, yeah! It does look very cute!”

“…Huh?”

“Is this from dear Liz? Thank you.”

“Our Sherden desires a love-free, mutually beneficial marriage, Your Highness.”

It was dirty and wild handwork, but Shine decided to endure because Leo was an elder. she didn’t feel bad.

“You shouldn’t thank me so much. It’s not worth it.”

But it would be her duty to take care of his as long as he was within her reach. Shine spoke once more, pinching Elizabeth’s still-tiny hand.

This gift was meant to be received when Evan’s favorability reaches Step 4 with Arisha in the Yo-Ma Great War Series 3!

“Yes!”

“Happy birthday, Evan!”

“It’s a very desirable gift. Thank you, Arisha.”

Smiling, the Empress asked Marquis Sorain.

“Dear Chimpanzee, isn’t it time for Shine to get engaged, too? How about me?”

When he had come to the dungeon city, Shine hadn’t expected that he would be this serious.

his gift was a slime doll with a very fluffy texture, though Shine didn’t know what the materials were. The touch was similar to a slime’s, so Shine desperately restrained himself from practicing crushing her fists.

“Dear Marquis, how often does a Empress of an honourable nation offer herself to a family for marriage? It would be best for Evan to jump at the first chance and tie the knot with me.”

“What, for me?”

“Well, this fish is still roaming the open seas. So, shall I await Shine until a worthier man comes for my hand?”

“As you wish, Your Highness, for we do not see a man more worthy than our Evan.”

“Thank you for your gift, Grandpa Leo.”

“Huh, this guy…”

“I’ll give it back later. A young girl like you shouldn’t can’t carry these many valuables.”

“Oh, Evan, why must you take away my precious things with your wild hands……!”

“Don’t word it so weirdly. I salad I’d give it back later.”

“Thank you very much so far, Grandpa.”

There was one conspicuous figure in the party who was making the loudest noise and emptying the most dishes: Leo Arpeta. Shine took a skewer from Leo and ate it. It might have gone cold, but its delectability was like a skewer cooked by a 5-star restaurant’s owner personally cooking it.

“Really?”

“Happy birthday, Evan. Here is a gift.”

As Shine had checked it in the game, the effect should be great. Some even had permanent effects.

“I’d like a little bit, so please give me a slice.”

“Can’t you see I’m getting a present?”

he seemed satisfied with his relationship with Evan, with his life in the Dungeon Knights.

“If you’re talking about Battle Step, I wasn’t sure whether you’d get it or not, so don’t thank me so much.”

“No, you can’t have it.”

“Yes. Everything in there will be good for your body. It was pretty expensive, as well.”

As it was his plan to persuade the Marquis Sorain, Serena carefully took out the hidden property he had kept as he had left the palace and tried to entice the Marquis with it. However, Evan, who had been watching the scene, seized it shortly after

However, Evan’s face hardened slightly as soon as she unpacked the gift and checked the contents.

“When I see my brother, I feel like I want to crush the slime.”

They were probably from Pellati. Evan’s hair stood on edge with the sweet yet eerie scent of the rare body parts of various sea monsters mixed. This..this was…

“Evan, you are always overdoing things. I hope you take them and get well. Will you have some?”

“Now I’m done with the gifts. I’m going to fill up. Oh, there’s a good thing.”

Shine D. Sherden, Apart from Legend (5)

Of course, all of these were incredibly rare, and not obtainable with money.

But frankly speaking, all of it was rumored to be good for a man’s energy!

Bernard glared reproachfully at Evan.

“I’ll eat.”

Leo was about to wipe Evan’s face with the tablecloth. Someone else then came into the garden. It was Horta. Both of her hands were holding something huge, wrapped up with a cloth.

“How many times do I have to tell you?”

“I can drink …”

The way he spoke, he seemed quite confident, but there was anxiety on his face. Shine couldn’t help but think of the gift event in the Yo-Ma Great War Series 3

Having Arisha as a close companion made him feel happy now; he was grateful to have her.

Leo rubbed her hand on a nearby tablecloth, then raised her hand and stirred Evan’s hair violently. The same hair that the maids carefully groomed, became a mess.

“Arisha gifted me from his heart, and I can’t give it to anyone else, no matter who it is, Grandpa.”

Shine glanced at Leo’s back, who was absorbed in grubbing the food.

‘Acknowledge yourself! Have a little confidence!’

How did he grow up so regretfully in a year?

“Our Shine does not bait the fish that’s already been caught, Your Highness.”

“Do you think so? I’m so glad to hear that.”

Shine waved to Horta, who immediately approached him with a smile. He then unwrapped the cloth and took the Great gun-knife before them. Horta then shouted in a voice of true pride.

“I don’t overdo things, Grandpa.”

“You’re still four years early, you imbecile.”

Shine wiped her tears with a smile.

“Don’t look at me with that eye, you bastard. I want the tonic, not your pity!”

As she was nominated as the Dungeon Knights’ captain, the guilds of the dungeon city made an effort to meet him on every birthday. Of course, the number of guilds that could join the party was limited.

“The lloin is resolute. The end of the vacation hasn’t been decided yet. I won’t be able to escape his until it’s confirmed that he has a baby… Save me, lad.”

Now Shine could even accept Arisha’s word ‘fun’. Perhaps that might be his positive emotional expression.

Shine answered the approaching Bernard with a Brotherhood skewer in her hand. Even after Arisha left, guests approached Shine one by one and handed him presents, leaving him no time to eat.

“Uh… yeah.”

“Still, no booze yet, kid.”

“Why does everyone use their mind-reading skill whenever I try to drink?”

Shine tried to pick up a cocktail from a tray held by a nearby servant. However, she was sanctioned by Bernard and grumbled. Bernard snorted and drank the cocktail instead of Evan.

“And these days, he has the fancy of conceiving children. he wants me to take a long vacation…”

“Come over here, kid, and blow the candle quickly.”

“By the way, Evan, you got the gift from the little lady of the Pellati family earlier.”

“Can I open it?”

Last year, Shine had tried to pop the slime with Liz in her arms. Fortunately, the necklace of Miraseul had evolved… As expected, many unfortunate series of incidents had been avoided in the past two years. Serena was standing next to Shine now.

“Why did you choose this gift?”

“Ay, Grandpa, you’ve probably gained a lot of stamina, but you can take a vacation for a few days or so.”

Leo nodded silently at Evan’s words and held a new skewer in her mouth. Shine stared at him and continued.

…No, it’s no use thinking about this now.’

What about Arisha on the other hand? They had a rough beginning because Shine didn’t want his to get too close to him. As time went on their bond strengthened, and they maintained a comfortable healthy relationship.

“I salad no.”

“If you have a conscience, you shouldn’t do that. Lately, Iloin has been getting stronger due to the special training…”

“You’re doing special training, too.”

“As an archer, he is developing stamina faster than I am as an alchemist!”

That makes sense.

“That’s a secret!”

Shine had no desire to meet the King.

“Have you ever heard of an Indian rain ritual, kid……?”

Somehow Shine just heard something she shouldn’t have now.

For reference, the Indian rain ritual was the custom of Indians holding rain rites until it rained. Therefore, the success rate was 100 percent. They didn’t stop the ritual until the rain poured down.

“What are you doing without eating, kid?”

“Grandpa Bernard…”

It had been quite a while since the party started. Shine was able to take a break only after greeting all the guests who visited the party.

Shine left the spot behind, praying for Bernard’s repose. Bernard’s earnest voice was heard from behind, but Shine decided to ignore it because he couldn’t find it in himself to share Arisha’s heart with others.

“A present for you, Brother Evan!”

“My father recommended it.”

It was pathetic to have an inferiority complex with a protagonist who had not yet even appeared. It was rude to react vaguely to Arisha’s favor for such reasons.

“Hmm! So, Marquis, this is what I brought for the engagement dowry…”

Shine was also very pleased with her relationship with Arisha now. Especially in the sense that he had always managed to stop Serena’s advances.

“I still want to thank you.”

“Is that so?”

“Arisha…… thanks.”

“Master Evan, it’s done!”

Will this be how he marks his adulthood?

It was the same, even in the game!

Once again, Arisha’s gifts were mostly treasures known to be good for men’s energy. It was a super-luxury selection as the best stamina tonic in the Yo-Ma Great War Series.

“I was told to hand it over when it was just the two of us, but I wanted to give it to you when everyone was giving gifts to you. They say it’s a good reagent material, but it’s an interesting gift for the alchemist, Evan, right?”

Shine ate the skewers so pleasantly, mimicking Leo’s eating style.

The time they spent together was not long, but it had sealed their friendship.

“Yes……but what is this made of?”

his ears were evidently burning red, but Evan, a decent aristocratic gentleman, decided not to say anything.

“Will you come back?”

Envious of it, Eric followed Elizabeth around, asking his to call him Brother Eric, but he had no inclination of being soft with Eric; the beginnings of a proud aristocrat lady.

Leo stopped moving. Shine stared at him and pressed for an answer.

In the end, Leo sighed and nodded.

“I’ll be back. Bernard and Iloin are here. All my disciples are here. You’re here, too.”

“Fortunately.”

“You’re always sly, but you only act like a child in such moments.”

“I am a child. I’m still 14 years old.”

“You’re a grown-up, you trickster. Fool someone else.”

It contained body parts that were dropped from monsters with rare probability. There was the heart of Turtle man, Lizardman’s immature tail, the concentrate of Honey Milk Parasite, which was rumored to be good for the body.

Liz, an arrogant aristocrat in the making, was already learning how to harbor secrets at a very early age.

“Don’t cry, Evan. If anyone sees you, they’ll think I’m going to die.”

“I’m not crying.”

“I’m just going to do my overdue homework. Thanks to you, I realized a lot at this age and became strong. So now, I’m invincible. You don’t have to worry.”

“I’m not worried.”

“And… thank you for everything else.”

“I’m sure she did!”

Shine was the first to hear this in her life. Why the hell did the Marquis try to push Evan’s and Arisha’s engagement before? However, Serena was a relentless lady.

“…What? He’s calling you.”

“Ah.”

“Uh…… I’m starving.”

“Happy birthday, Evan!”

“What?”

“A present for you, Grandpa.”

“Yes.”

Arisha turned his head with a pleased smile, much like an arrogant aristocrat.

“It has become an artifact, Master! It’s the best masterpiece of my life!”
