Unlike the 《Sword Saint (Kensei)》, I don’t like the fact that you can’t predict what a Magi will do. Even if I do go, I would like to get a feel of their mood, even if it is just a little――I know!

I took another look at the staff I had just been given. It was something that came from the 《Sword Saint’s (Kensei)》 precious collection, and although it has completely not been examined yet, it must be considerably powerful. If you convert it to money, it must be quite expensive and the sword was originally given to me for free by Eliza, so it was the best way to show my goodwill. Is it possible that the 《Sword Saint (Kensei)》 had foreseen that Lucia’s “Teacher (Sensei)” was angry!? Today, I am…… Brilliant! Lucky.

“Lucia, this staff seems to be very powerful, why don’t you take it to your “Teacher (Sensei)”? Didn’t you say that your “Teacher (Sensei)” was looking for a staff?” (Cry)

As I am giving you an expensive staff, your anger will probably disappear. If it was me, my anger would definitely disappear.

At my sudden suggestion, Lucia blinked her eyes and made a dubious expression.

“………… Eh? Eeeeeh, “Teacher (Sensei)” was certainly looking for one but………… Did I tell it to you, Leader? And you just got this staff, didn’t you――” (Lucia)

Hmph. Of course………… I just say that randomly. Besides, I was told not to sell this Relic, but not to give it away.

I don’t want to give it if possible, but I am not attached to it yet, so if giving this staff away would help Lucia then by all means.

I mean, it is more natural for a professor to possess a staff than for the 《Sword Saint (Kensei)》 to possess one. The correct person for the correct tool.

“I am sure Lucia’s “Teacher (Sensei)” will be satisfied. Come on, take it and tell your “Teacher (Sensei)” that it is a gift from me, okay? I am sure your “Teacher’s (Sensei)” anger will subside.” (Cry)

“Al-Alright. ………… You are sure that this staff is alright, right?” (Lucia)

When I pressed the staff against her, Lucia looked at it with a slightly uneasy expression, which was unusual for her.

It is indeed rare to find a staff that is completely black from top to bottom. Black is the color of expensive stuff, but in the Relic industry, it is also the color of curses. But don’t worry.

“Hahahahaha, it’s alright, it’s alright. Lucia worries too much.” (Cry)

“…… It is you, Leader, that does not worry enough.” (Lucia)

The 《Sword Saint (Kensei)》 didn’t say anything about it, so there is no way he will give away such a dangerous item, right?

That’s right, the other side is a professional Magi. It wouldn’t be strange for them to have more knowledge about Wand-type Relic than an average Relic Appraiser. If it is Lucia, she will definitely hand it over to the person in question――.

“Surprisingly, your “Teacher (Sensei)” might also know what that staff is……” (Cry)

“It is true that “Teacher (Sensei)” is knowledgeable about things like this…… Or rather if you already know what it is, you should tell it beforehand――.” (Lucia)

At the moment when Lucia made a grim expression, the Symphonic Stone in my pocket vibrated.

I received this from Franz-san. What in the world does he want? I don’t want to answer, but I also owe Franz-san a debt of gratitude for his mediation with the 《Sword Saint (Kensei)》. It would be ungrateful if I don’t answer when he does. And it is not like we will be talking face-to-face.

“Hello, Franz-san? Yahoo, it’s me.” (Cry)

『Yo-You bastard, are you always like this! I have told you many times, I am not your friend!』 (Franz)

“…… No, I thought I should ease your nervousness……” (Cry)

『Tsk………… Why should I be nervous talking with you!』 (Franz)

He is as usual. He takes good care of people, which is totally… How can I say… Nobleman-like.

Lucia shut her lips and looked at me in a bad mood. She doesn’t like to be interrupted in a conversation. But I think it was nice timing. There was no way I would know the true identity of the staff…… And she wouldn’t believe me even if I said I didn’t know.

“Oh yeah, thank you for the incident with the 《Sword Saint (Kensei)》 . I don’t know what you did, but it went well. I even got something in return…… I wish things would always go like this――”. (Cry)

I am sure it was thanks to Franz-san’s mediation that made it all work out this way. As expected of a talented person. Or is this what you call power? I feel sorry for all the help I have been getting lately.

When I said that in a cheerful voice, what came back from the Symphonic Stone was a yelling voice with stronger pressure.

『On that subject! You bastard, what does that mean! Even though the magic sword fiasco is over, the prophecy hasn’t disappeared!』 (Franz)

“………… Yes?” (Cry)

Hearing the sudden angry voice, passersby stopped for a moment and quickly moved away.

Lucia looked at the Symphonic Stone, me, and the staff I was pressing to her and looked at me once more, this time with a glare.
