Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

His eyes were filled with respect and there was a radiant smile on his face, a genuine one.

The air he gave away previously had completely changed, and it was now as if he knew what he had to do.

He was certain, and I knew my small demonstration was quite helpful to him…

\'Even if the skill can prevent him from thinking about the rapier, it can\'t actually erase the memories.

And erasing the beautiful movements of my arrow rapier swordsmanship was... well, it can try all it wants.\'

I had done my work, and he now knew what he had to do.

And I was happy with his quick mind and decision-making skills.

He was young, but a smart one.

And I just finished on time.

"Eon~? Let\'s gooo~."

Rein shouted from behind him and we both looked back at once.

He was standing just outside the door and the vice-captain had finished his tea and now had a delightful smile on his face.

And just behind him, standing on the last stair, she looked at me with a radiant smile on her face.

I knew the vice-captain already knew about us from Sir Mel, or so he wasn\'t as surprised as this young boy.

And as soon as she spotted this future rapier master, a radiant smile appeared on her face.

But before he could even see that smile, Chry bowed his head before her…

"It is an honor to meet the lady of Atraxia!"

His voice was quite loud and the way he said it, it was more than easy to figure out he was from a noble house but had never been taught any noble costume.

He had just imitated what he might have seen and the vice-captain as well as Rein caught onto this one.

And as his eyes were wide with surprise while looking at him. And before he could think of anything more, I looked at him with a finger on my mouth and shook my head.

There was a smile on my face, and the look in my eyes was a confident one.

And... he was also quick to figure things out so, he just respectfully nodded his head.

Rein, naturally, caught onto this, but there was no special answer from her to this young boy\'s greeting.

"Oh... yes. Is your work with Eon finished?" she asked with a normal face and he looked up at her with a blushing face.

"Y-yes!" he shouted again, and this was quite surprising…

\'The natural beauty of a witch, a racial characteristic as well as one of their weapons.

Never thought it would be this effective against others.

She was right when she said I was the weird one to have absolutely no effect of it on me.\'

Well, what can I even do?

She was gorgeous, no doubt about it.

But I have yet to see a being as impeccable as my master.

Her human form as well as her original form.

They were something amazing in themselves. And I don\'t think I will be seeing something even close to it anytime soon.

Well... that was it. And it wasn\'t like this strong-willed boy was attracted to my dear friend. No.

This was just the effect of her natural appearance.

And she won\'t have it when we go out, so there was nothing to worry about.

Her disguise skill was a (Blue) ranked skill from a high-level blue-ranked creature specialized in disguise and appearance changing.

A rare creature and an even rare skill from a (Doubleganger chameleon).

And, well, she looked ready right now.

A normal dress, nothing much to call an accessory, and that normal (level-4) artifact hooded cape... she really was ready.

Well, it was nice for me. I was ready too with these normal clothes and a similar (level-4) cape.

And now that he had said his work with me was done, there was nothing more for her to see here.

"Okey then~. Let\'s go, Eon~." she cheerfully shouted with a similar radiant face.

And... I just helplessly nodded at her pure behavior.

This side of her was more like Anna and Zoe\'s, but it suited her well.

And I definitely liked her seeing smiling like this.

Chry looked up after her words and bowed to me one last time before nodding to the vice-captain and walking downstairs.

The Vice-captain also nodded with surprised eyes and a radiant smile on his face and followed him down.

The two of them were smart, and I knew the vice-captain would keep this secret, so there was no worry.

So then... I looked at her genuine smile after confirming they were gone.

Should I tease her a bit? Just a bit to see that angry face?

Hmm... let\'s not.

She\'s happy, so there\'s no need to do that stuff, at least not today.

Not on our first date.

Thinking that much, I smiled similarly to her, excited about the things ahead of us.

"Hmm~. Let\'s go~." I cheerfully shouted, and without thinking, she came forward and grabbed my hand, and looked into my eyes.

She was sudden with this one but I didn\'t mind and held her hand back, looking into her now black eyes.

\'Ready?\' she asked with her eyes, and I nodded confidently with that same smile.

We would be going to the adventurer association first.

And I knew that one would be done by the evening.

So, after that, we will just go around, looking at the market and some good places.

She was the guide today, and although I had seen capital with Celes\'s eyes, it would be fun seeing things with her.

From the things I have read, I knew it was always different when experiencing things firsthand.

And if that experience is with a loved one, it would be even more glamorous than usual.

I knew she would have a unique experience with me, even if she had gone to these places many times by herself.

But I knew one thing... we are going to have fun~!

And with her happy nod, our bodies melted in the shadows, vanishing from this simple place...

***

"Find it?" a dark, deep voice spoke up in a dark back alley of the capital, in the middle of the crimson blood-filled room.

This was a dark hooded figure, and there were two others with him.

A humanoid built, tall, but not much.

Bodies covering the blood of the innocent, weak people filled the room as they stood there, covering their faces with dark hoodies, but their emotionless, dark void eyes looked at each other.

And after he asked that, and all three of them had finished looking at each other and no one said anything, the one who had asked this nodded and the other two similarly nodded after him.

"Area 2B, nothing."

The person who spoke up first said while putting his two fingers on his forehead as the other two cleaned the mess on their bodies.

And just after saying that, he also cleaned himself as the three of them started walking out of this small house.

This place they left behind was complete carnage.

Blood was everywhere, everything was destroyed, bodies of powerless humans lay around, and they had died without even knowing the cause...

All of this, this devastation and death, was just... sad.

And it was unbearable, so, without waiting, the butterfly watching all this from the window of this small house flew out, and continued following the ones who caused this.

She was naturally devastated at how they could do something like this to someone powerless who did nothing to them, and this genuinely enraged her.

She wanted to do something... but this wasn\'t even her original body.

She was powerless, at least for now, she was powerless.

But she knew she had faith that the one most dear to her, her master, would not let these bad people go.

She just knew it, so she just followed the bad people, just like she was doing until now.
