~~~~~LISA'S POV~~~~~

The arms dealer handed me the handle with his index finger and thumb and urged me to hold it. I couldn't believe it was easy to turn sword like a baby's toy.

I asked, still with a doubtful look.

"Then it doesn't mean that those who don't have magic can't use it."

"The long-trained knights are bound to operate mana little by little. Otherwise, you can't use the magic sword."

"Hmm!"

He also made it obvious that he didn't know much. I quickly turned the subject around with a dry cough.

"...I don't know if Yoongi has magic."

"Don't worry, miss. I've been selling weapons in the capital for decades. I assure you, that slave....."

While he was talking in a sly manner, he changed his words in a hurry at the sight of my eyes.

"...not..., but the spirit of the escort was great. I've been running the arms dealer for 30 years, but I can't believe I've ever seen someone who's been spouting such a horrible aura."

"Really?"

"Yes, of course!

I was itching to brag, 'He's going to be the Sword Master,' but I held back.

"In fact, this sword is so rare that we've been trading on the black market for a very high price. But it's also too expensive, and knights usually look for fancy swords first."

The arms dealer whimpered, "My poor baby."

"Although this sword doesn't have any special enhancement magic, it is made from a rare minareal. How the hell they make it, was made of steel from the mines of the extinct Dwarfs a long time ago.""

"Is it good?"

"There is still no way to make it same. It's their secret."

'This is good one''

I didn't understand the half, so I just nodded silently.

"In addition, when it gets smaller, the size of the mana engraved on it becomes smaller. Even if you're in a place where you're not supposed to be armed, no one will notice you're carrying a sword."

"... even in a palace, for example?"

The arms dealer nodded and looked around for no one, then whispered secretly.

" That's perfect for assassinations."

It was too much. In common sense, who would assassinate with a small, growing sword, other than a poison or a citation?

I didn't show up my though. Because I liked the sword itself very much.

'You can't show it to anyone else, but you can always have a sword.'

I actually thought of a small type of dagger, but I thought this would be better. If Yoongi is anyway, it will be used as a weapon as soon as it is lifted, whether it is a magic sword or a toy necklace.

"Well, I'll take this."

"Thank you, miss! I can't believe my baby finally found such a worthy guest!"

The arms dealer immediately asked with tears in his eyes.

"Do you want to send this to the mansion together?"

"No. Give it to me now."

After a while.

As I was about to leave the arms dealer, I suddenly stopped walking on the glistening thing that caught my eye.
