“I think it’s about time…”
Noon. I inserted a bookmark in the book I was reading, put on my silver armor, took my Poseidon Lance, and left my room.
But what was it all about? I wasn’t even off duty today, but Princess Leia had asked me to stay in my room until noon. I’m not sure if it’s something to do with the princess, but… well, thanks to her, I could read my novels slowly in the morning, so I have nothing to complain about.
When I came to the front of the princess’ room, I knocked on the door. As soon as I do, a cute voice says “Yes!” from the back of the room. I can’t help but smile as I hear a cute voice from the back of the room.
“I’m Gustav, Princess.”
“I’ve been waiting for you!”
The princess who opens the door is the same as usual… or perhaps her expression is a little brighter than usual.
“Princess, did something good happen?”
“Uh-huh, well, Gustav-Sama. I don’t want to stand around outside, so why don’t you come inside?”
The princess smiled and pulled my hand away with a smile that was as big as a squirrel with its mouth full of berries, “Come on, come on”. And then, as we entered the room…
“What… this…!”
What was placed in the middle of the princess’ room was… brand new armor, and a mechanical spear.
“All of this equipment here arrived just this morning.”
“It’s so shiny…”
“It’s brand new. And It’s all yours, Gustav-Sama.”
“For me…?”
“‘Yes. Well, this is my gift to you. During the fight against the Demon King, you protected me at your own risk, and I was really happy for that…”
The princess seemed a little embarrassed.
“Un, thank you, Princess. I’m very happy for that sentiment. But isn’t this very expensive…?”
Bending down in front of his armor and spear, he takes a closer look at them.
This dull golden armor is probably one of the most expensive pieces of equipment. And as for this spear, unfortunately, I have no memory of my previous life. There is a glass flask (?) like those used in science experiments, a little below the spear’s point, and a copper wire entangled in it. It looks expensive anyway.
“Don’t worry about the money. I have savings, and in fact, while Gustav-sama was on his research mission, I won the budget allocated to the SS at the reconstruction budget meeting… so I’ve covered some of the costs.”
The princess sticks out her tongue. …No, you’ve done some pretty amazing things, haven’t you?
“But are you sure about that? We’ve already been paid quite a lot, and now you’re giving me even more stuff…”
“Isn’t it fine? The SS are not only my guards, but also take the initiative in risking their lives to protect the kingdom, such as training and directing the guards, conducting research missions, defeating bandit rings, and so on. It is only natural that the equipment to protect you should be paid for at your expense.”
Expenses, as they say, are indeed. Well, I need it for my job. And I’ve just realized that, come to think of it, I’ve been out more often than I’ve been in the SS.
“And as for your spear, the blacksmith in the castle town gave it to me free of charge for some reason. When I asked him to give me a weapon to present to Gustav-Sama, he said, [I’d like you to let him try using this one for free. I’m sure the boy will be satisfied with it].”
“A blacksmith in the castle town… oh, so that’s how it is.”
The other day, when me, Nina and Spera went out to the castle town to visit the blacksmith, I finally understood why I was the only one who got kicked out of the blacksmith shop…
That tsunderejii-san. You knew all about the order from the princess and that the equipment was going to me as a surprise, didn’t you? Totally, you’re an air-headed geezer, thank you very much.
“Then, thank you for the Princess’s kindness… and I’ll take it.”
“Yes! I’d be very happy if you’ll take it.”
“May I try to equip it right away?”
“Yes, of course. Please try it on and tell me what you think.”
So I quickly took off the silver armor I’m wearing and put on the armor instead. Despite its massive appearance, it was much lighter than the Silver Armor. I then put down the Poseidon Lance and held the mechanical spear instead. It fits in my hand as snugly as if it were a magnet to my palm.
“It feels so, so right…”
“Really? That’s great!”
I open [Status] to see the details of my equipment.
