'Too close! your face is too close!' Shinichi shouted inside his head.
Shinichi and the young lady's faces are very close to each other. If Shinichi leans a little, he will be able to feel that delicious red lips. Shinichi is startled by the action of this grand-looking lady, He thought that he will get in trouble because he killed a person. and based on this girl's action it looks like the life of that assassin doesn't even matter.
Before Shinichi be tempted by those lovely lips, he took a step back to distance himself. Reina on the other hand looks amused.
"Well, I can show you but I don't even know who you are and we are on our way to the adventurer's guild to take a mission," Shinichi said.
"Oh! How rude of me, I'm sorry for not introducing myself first. My name is Esri de Balor and these girls are assigned by my brother for me to lead, though I chose almost all of them. He sent us here for training and help to protect this city. We come from the nearest Kingdom, The Kingdom of Fafnir." Esri introduced herself and her group.
"Nice meeting you. My name is Shinichi Oda and this is my wife." Shinichi introduced himself followed by Reina
"Hi, my name is Reina Cromwell. Wife of Shin-kun." Said Reina shyly
"Oh! You two already married?" asked Esri
"Not yet, but we are planning in the near future." Said Shinichi.
"I see. Then when are you going to show me your swordsmanship?" Asked by Esri excitedly
"Well, my sword technique is kind of dangerous. So, I can only show it to you by fighting enemies." Said Shinichi.
"Can we just have a little battle?" asked Esri
"I also can, but" Shinichi suddenly stopped talking and looked at Esri seriously.
"Are you ready to risk your life?" Shinichi asked in a serious tone.
Esri started to waver when she saw Shinichi's serious face. but after thinking some time she suddenly slapped her left and right face lightly with her both hands at the same time then she speak.
"Yes, if I can learn a sword technique even a little, I will risk my life. the moment that I choose the path to become the strongest Magic Sword Master. I already decided to risk my life a long time ago." Esri said with a determined expression on her face.
Shinichi and Esri look at each other for some time, suddenly Shinichi started to raise his hand slowly. Esri and the others thought that Shinichi will grab the sword in his back and they started to take a stance but before they could grab their swords, they suddenly relaxed when they saw Shinichi start to clap his hands.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
"Very Good! I admire your determination. without guts and determination to risks once in life, you won't be able to achieve your goals and even learn a technique. You're a good woman." Shinichi said to Esri full of praise.
Esri on the other hand suddenly blushed when she heard Shinichi say that she's a good woman. She suddenly hides it but Shinichi already saw it. He smirked and continue to talk
"I will show you some of my sword techniques after I returned from my mission. I was staying at the Starlight Inn" said Shinichi to Esri.
"it's a promise then." Esri smiled charmingly
Shinichi's heart suddenly skipped a beat when he saw her charming smile. This is the same feeling he felt when he saw Reina's smiling face.
'Damn, don't make me fall in love with you too. I already have my Reina'
Shinichi shook his head and spoke.
"Yes, It's a promise," Shinichi said as he smiled charmingly too.
This time its Esri's turn, her heart suddenly skipped a beat too. But she didn't know what she is feeling at this moment, because this is the first time she felt something like this.
'I already saw lots of handsome men in the Kingdom but this is the first time I felt something like this. What is this feeling?'
When she saw that Shinichi was about to leave, Esri suddenly grab his hand.
"Wait!" Esri said.
Shinichi turn around and looked at Esri with a confused expression.
"What is it Miss Esri, is there anything else?" Shinichi asked
"The two of you are going to take a mission, right? Can I come too?" Asked Esri with an expectant look on her face.
"You can but how about them and your training?" Shinichi replied and asked back.
"It's fine I already saw their potential, and they are the ones who needed experience in this training. this is already my third time but this time is different, these girls will become part of my Team from now on." Esri explained.
"Are you sure? What if your brother gets angry because you leave your team?" Shinichi asked again for confirmation
"Yes I'm sure, I'm not giving them instructions it will be handled by the one in charge in this city. Also, they have training that they won't receive any instructions to see what they are going to do if their captain got killed or something because you won't be able to know what will happen in the battlefield." Said Esri.
"And this is also for my training, my brother will be even happy if he knows that I will be learning a sword technique to a strong swordsman," Esri said and smiled.
"if you say so. Let's go then" Shinichi said and started to walk.
"You girls can return now to the training camp. I will check on your training results when I returned." Esri said in a commanding tone.
"Yes!" The girls saluted and then left.
When they left, Esri started to follow Shinichi and Reina. Shinichi is now walking with two beautiful goddesses in his left and right. when the men saw this scene they wanted to curse the handsome young man in the middle of these two goddesses but when they saw that it was the young man who killed the assassin, they all just shut their mouths and cursed their bad luck with beautiful girls.
