My childhood friend, who I promised to marry in the future, came back as a swordsman

  Chapter 93: Would you like to be my child? {TL: By Creed} Two weeks had passed since the Doctor's incident. Cliff seemed to be overwhelmed with the aftermath, crying out in frustration, but we were not like that. We were spending our days peacefully. As time passed, Aisha's heart seemed to be healing little by little, and she began to smile. Seeing her smile made me happier than anything else... But seeing that smile also made me realize that I had to think about the future. What to do about Aisha. Of course, as far as I'm concerned, I want to take Aisha in as she is. I'm just a fledgling adventurer with no substantial earnings, but... Even so, I absolutely do not want to say goodbye to Aisha. It's partly out of duty and human decency... But more than that, I like Aisha. I want to be with her. That is how Sofia feels too... I haven't talked to her about it yet, but if I told her I wanted to take Aisha in as our foster daughter, she would welcome the idea with ...

  Chapter 92: Together {TL: By Creed} Regarding the incident with Doctor, there were various follow-up procedures... A week later, we were finally able to regain some calm. Several senior members of the Adventurers' Guild, including Doctor, were arrested. In their place, Cliff and a few others were promoted to senior positions. What will happen from now on? There are still some uncertainties... But, with Cliff, I believe he will improve the organization more than ever. I could feel the strength and enthusiasm that made me think so. And so, we, who have regained our long-lost peace, are... ―――――――――― "Ugh..." When we went out into the city, Aisha stuck close behind me. Her tail was wagging restlessly, and she was looking around nervously. "What's wrong, Aisha?" "..." "It's a bit hard to walk when you stick so close..." "..." "Hmm?" Aisha's dog ears drooped, and her tail remained restless. "Fate, you really ...

  Chapter 91: Great Success {TL: By Creed} This mission had one concern. It was that I charged ahead without waiting for Cliff’s signal. I couldn't ignore something like that, not for a minute, not even for a second... If I encounter a similar situation again, I think I'll act the same way. So, I have no regrets. No regrets, but... Even so, if the mission failed because of me, that would be a problem, and I’d feel sorry. We captured Doctor and Falz. But whether we secured everyone, that’s uncertain. With all that commotion, some might have escaped... If that happened, it wouldn't be the outcome Cliff wanted. Cliff aimed to capture everyone, including Doctor and Falz. So, I was worried about the success of the mission... "Thank you. Thanks to you and Ascart, the mission was a great success." In the guest room of the Adventurers' Guild. When I was called there, Cliff told me this. By the way, Sofia wasn’t there. Something similar might happen again, so she was w...

  Chapter 90 Crush {TL: By Creed} "Licorice, Aisha. Are you alright? You weren't caught up in anything, were you?" After restraining the Doctor, I went over to the two of them. From what I could see, they didn't seem to be injured... But you can't tell if there's a crack in a bone just by looking, so I asked them. "I'm fine. There's no way a super genius, beautiful fairy like Licorice-chan would get hurt in a place like this. The little one is probably fine too. Right?" "Mmm..." In response to Licorice's question, Aisha nodded slightly. She didn't seem to be enduring any pain, so she was probably fine. "Ugh... nn!" Aisha clung to me tightly. "Aisha?" "Mmm." She wrapped her hands around my waist as if refusing to let go. What was wrong? I found it curious, but I quickly understood. She was trembling slightly. She wasn't injured. But she had gone through a lot of frightening and difficult expe...

Chapter  89: The power of bonds {TL: By Creed} "Impossible... Impossible, impossible, impossible, impossible!!!" The Doctor screamed like a madman, swinging his cursed sword wildly. At a speed that surpassed sound. Moreover, the power of a single hit was lethal. It was quite a threat, but... Strangely, I couldn't imagine losing. Could it be because I was with Sofia? "Fate!" Sofia interposed her holy sword in front of me, blocking the Doctor's attack.  Then, "Sofia!" I lightly pushed Sofia's shoulder, moving her out of the Doctor's attack range. We covered for each other. Together, we synchronized our attack timings, landing continuous strikes and driving him back. When I faced the Doctor alone, he was such a formidable enemy that I was terrified. I almost gave up, thinking I might lose. But now, it's different. With Sofia, I felt like I could do anything. As long as she was with me, I could reach any height. Not even the Doctor was a th...

  Chapter 88 Miscalculation {TL: By Creed} Doctor Brassband didn't doubt his own victory. His opponent was a novice adventurer and a sword saint. Fate had surprising abilities, but he wasn't the enemy. Instead, the threat was the sword saint. Her power, her holy sword... If they were to fight one-on-one, he might have lost depending on the conditions. That's how powerful she was. However, I have a cursed sword. A counterpart to the holy sword. Under certain conditions, it can exhibit power surpassing the holy sword. With a cursed sword, I can't lose to any opponent. Even if it's a being surpassing the sword saint... perhaps even a sword god. That's what I thought. That's how it should have been... "Gu...!?" Sofia engaged with Doctor first, exchanging blows repeatedly... Occasionally, Fate launched supporting slashes. It was as if the two's intentions were unified into one. Such exquisite timing. Do they possess telepathic tools for communicatio...

  Chapter  87: Evil power {TL: By Creed} This technique didn't work earlier... But, it's different this time. Sofia is here. And she's attacking with perfect timing. The power should be several times stronger. If this doesn't work, honestly, we're done for. "You've really done it now." Doctor was bleeding around his left shoulder, staggering a bit. Good. It's not a decisive blow, but still, we managed to break through the defense that was thought to be invincible. I think there's quite a bit of hope in that. "To bring such humiliation upon me...! I cannot forgive it. First, I'll cut off your limbs, and then, I'll beg you to kill me while crying." "You're annoying." No need to listen to nonsense. As if to announce that, while Doctor was rambling, Sofia moved. Her movement was super-fast. She raced across the battlefield at an incredible speed, attacking Doctor from every angle imaginable. I timed my moves and supp...

  Chapter 86: The two of us {TL: By Creed} "Sofia!" Before I knew it, Sofia was there. I had no idea when or how she had burst onto the scene. But there was one thing I could say for sure: I owed my life to her. "Thanks, you saved me." "Not at all. This was nothing. More importantly..." Sofia readied her sword and glared at Doctor. "Not only did you put Aisha through such an ordeal, you also tried to lay hands on Fate... I can't forgive that." Sofia rushed forward. Faster than the wind... no, faster than sound. Her figure seemed to vanish like an illusion... In the next moment, she had moved right beside Doctor. And then, a full-force strike from the Sword Saint. But the enemy wasn't helpless either. Doctor used his cursed sword as a shield, blocking Sofia's attack. He was a bit slow to react, but even so, he avoided a direct hit. A loud crash echoed as Doctor was blown back, slamming into the far wall. Cracks spread like a spiderweb ...

  Chapter 85 Serious {TL: By Creed} I move faster, sharper than before. Twice... no, maybe three times faster? That’s the speed at which I close in on Doctor. "Haah!!!" I swing my sword vertically down. This strike, even I think, is quite powerful. However, it doesn't reach the Doctor. He dodges it with a simple movement of his body, avoiding it at just the right timing and distance. There's no counterattack. The Doctor just smiles with a sneer, focusing entirely on avoiding my attacks. He’s probably mocking me. Your power isn’t worth anything, your sword will never reach me. So, just give up. That's probably what he's thinking. But I'm not giving up, no matter what. I'll show him that his overconfidence will be his downfall. "Come on, what's wrong? Aren't you here to defeat me?" "I will defeat you!" I swing my sword again and again. Vertically. Horizontally. Diagonally. Straight on. Slashes from every angle—sometimes mixing...

  Chapter 84 Magic(Cursed) sword {TL: By Creed} A Cursed Sword?  Tyrfing? I've never heard of such a thing. From the name, it seems like it might be similar to a holy sword.  I don't know much about it, but it's better to be cautious. I firmly grip my sword and carefully watch the movements of Doctor.  I was keeping a close eye on him, but... "Now, die!" "...Huh?" Before I knew it, Doctor was right in front of me.  He wasn't just fast; it was as if time had stopped, and he was suddenly in front of me... I couldn't track his movements with my eyes. A loud whoosh as the blade slashed toward me. Blocking it... I can't! If I try to block it, I'll be killed. "Ugh!!!" I quickly pulled out my backup sword, wildly and with all my might, to counterattack.  As expected, I only managed to hold him off for a moment. The backup sword couldn't withstand the strain and broke in half. But I successfully delayed Doctor's slash, even if j...
