Chereads / Quest: to become a MC! / Chapter 9 - Bribe

Chapter 9 - Bribe

The small lady was someone who aimed to be a knight that fights on a battlefield.

It's quite obvious that she doesn't know what a battlefield really is other than a place with a lot of battles, but due to her dream, the small lady was training a swordsmanship an was always righteous and honest.

Furthermore, she respected knights that fought on the borders, so Vayve's father was one of many targets of her respect. Of course, there were a lot of things to learn for both Vayve and this very small lady.

"Hi, I am Vayve."

"Hi, I have heard about you!"

The small lady introduced herself as Umiya Yuna! Her bright and loud voice didn't really bother Vayve as it was clear she was kinda happy with him approaching her! The lady ignored Bibur, who was an owner of the party, and brought Vayve to the table which was only hers.

Here, the lady asked for a questions as to why Vayve didn't choose to be a knight!

Of course, it was mostly because of his mother, but Yuna had no way to understand it. She was way too into the knights, so Vayve just played along with her! As the talk continued to go for a while, Vayve realized that the loud and too honest attitude of the small lady was kinda repulsive for others.

But Vayve easily could deal with it and even won a lot respect for himself!

This is when Yuna asked Vayve for a small spar herself.

However, she knew that Vayve has a good potential as a mage! Bibur's lost eyes in itself says enough! That's why, Yuna told Vayve to go for the sword! This is a sword spar that surely is going to end up with Vayve's lose!

"Ah, you see, Yuna... I have never really trained with a sword."

"It's fine. You have a bloodline of Ranria, so the sword is not foreign for your body!"

The small lady used a nice combination of words that could truly evoke the skills, but Vayve didn't really think his Money Magic System would allow him to learn a swordsmanship or at least awaken something out from it.

Even so, the lady urged him to take a sword.

Though before that, Yuna gestured Vayve to leave the birthday party and go to the garden where no one disturbs them. It wasn't out of the consideration for Bibur, but only because it would be too hard to swing a sword with so many people around.

Such innocence!

"This is a simple sword, but should do for a little spar!"

The sword belonged to one of her maids. Vayve took it with a slight unease, then clenching the hilt, his thoughts yet again went back to his 'talents'. As Yuna said, Vayve's origins were very good for a MC.

He had that MC Plot armor, his strong mother as a mage and father who was frequently fighting on the battlefield with his sword while leading an army! His talents were high, so maybe there was a chance!

As his eyes went up a little, Vayve noticed that Yuna took a position ready to go. Her sword was properly and steadily in front of her! The violet eyes shone with an expectation which made her look cuter.

Though Vayve wasn't really feeling a positive emotions.

He was just not feeling the sword. When it comes to his coins, he can feel that magic and the feeling when his own magic soaks the coin to deal the damage. But while holding a sword, Vayve just felt it as a common thing.

So he knew that he will make a fool out of himself.

Anyway, it's too stupid to make a lady wait!

"I am going."

Copying the form of his opponent, Vayve slowly raised his sword, then went forward. He swung it like a total amateur, but Yuna wasn't laughing at all. She just reflected the sword, then attacked back only to barely stop before Vayve's flesh.

"It's fine. The fact that you went against me means a lot!"

Yuna puffed her cheeks and raised her chest up after she said these words. It looked like she truly wanted to say it and patiently waited for a chance to appear! Thus, when the perfect chance appeared, the lady decisively swung her sword!

"Thanks."

It seems like Yuna wants to spread the way of a sword!

It's pretty big dream in a kingdom whose origins were that of a mages, but nowadays, there are a lot of knights and other professions anyway, so it was not that impossible dream to achieve! Just the fact that mages were stronger and had more influence was still deeply engraved in The Waleria Kingdom.

"Would you like to teach me more? It's pretty fun."

"Really?! Then come at me!"

And just like that, Vayve and Yuna began training the swordsmanship rather a lot. The birthday party was also slowly coming to a conclusion yet they were still at it! Though maids of Yuna were very happy as she found someone to have a fun with.

Her zeal for a sword was so big, then adding her honest and loud attitude, Yuna had a little friends to have fun with!

It was hard to keep up with her, but then, Vayve awakened something valuable for himself.

It was a new skill born out from his money magic system!

[Bribe!]

'What is this?'

"Did something happen?"

When Yuna asked worriedly, Vayve just peeked at his new skill which clearly explained about its utility! It was a skill that could be used on a weapons that were 'special'. The special had a lot meanings here.

The sword that he was holding was a special one because the former user could leave a little of his self within this sword! It was because he treated this sword as his real partner in good and bad times!

[You can bribe a small soul intent from the sword to get a little of his swordsmanship!]

That was a very nice skill that could be only born thanks to Yuna's harsh training and her maid's good sword!
