The dinner invitation given by the old Butler led to a eting of Earl Timoti's main family who had been waiting in the main dining room.
It made feel a little annoyed after I took an excessive action of closing the nerve response of Earl Timoti's father-in-law.
The old Butler led to a hallway of Earl Timoti's residence filled with stone walls that looked like a sturdy castle.
At these silent footsteps, I began to ask a question filled with my curiosity.
"If I look closely, the castle where Earl Timoti lives has several rocks that look sturdy as the last defense. Has this castle ever been restored to get additional defenses?" I asked to fill these silent footsteps to the old Butler who was leading the way in front of .
These silent footsteps received a warm welco from the old Butler, who was Earl Timoti's father-in-law's interdiary. He seed to want to give a long and detailed explanation but was hampered by ti and distance that was getting closer to Earl Timoti's main dining room.
"Yes, Lily-sama. This residence has had a long history of developnt carried out by each generation of Earl Timoti. It is not uncommon for so places to look abandoned because they are often ignored as defenses," replied the old Butler while walking at a fast pace.
"I'm sure that's a place that will beco a warehouse for storing dangerous weapons or an ergency exit after this residence is surrounded from various directions based on its strategic location," I replied by giving a small argunt that made this light conversation even longer.
"Good guess, Lily-sama. But I don't have an answer to confirm Lily-sama's guess on this one," he replied as if trying to stop his mouth from speaking freely which was starting to get lost in this light conversation.
My main goal for chatting was to fill the boredom while walking through the halls of Earl Timoti's residence but got an answer that was tightly locked by the ethics of an experienced old Butler.
His attitude that began to being careful with seed to indicate that the room we were heading to was getting closer. It could be proven by his respectful attitude that began to appear and his upright steps like a Butler who still had a strong youth.
"Looks like I have to experience a troubleso night after this," I grumbled a little while carrying the cursed Odachi sheath attached to my grip.
Without asking further to the old Butler who was guiding my way, a wide and tall door had appeared before my eyes. The decorations and ornants of the door looked complicated along with various sword weapons that indicated that the tastes of the military noble family were always closely related to weapons.
"Very classic," I said in a small tone to comnt on the entrance ornants decorated with swords.
Together with the firm steps of the old Butler in front of , it made feel an aura of pressure to be fully alert to attacks that could occur in Earl Timoti's main dining room.
"Uh, this is what makes sick. Even in a non-hostile area like this, I have received this kind of aura pressure that must be alert," I continued grumbling while keeping my voice low.
Along with our footsteps, we were getting closer to Earl Timoti's main dining room, there were several entrance guards who had different military uniforms.
Just like the military who have their respective duties, they gave off a firm aura of pressure so that I followed the rules before entering Earl Timoti's main dining room.
The old Butler imdiately moved away from and made way for the remaining path by inviting to pass through.
I imdiately walked towards one of the door guards who seed to have the authority to open the door to Earl Timoti's main dining room.
Because I was holding the cursed Odachi sheath, it made get suspicious looks.
The direction of their gazes were directed at the cursed Odachi sheath that had caused a ss on one of the castle walls where Earl Timoti lived.
"Excuse , Lily-sama. It seems like you have to leave your weapon before entering Earl Timoti's main dining room," he said with a worried look in his eyes at who was carrying a weapon in my hand.
"Hmm? I'm not allowed to carry my weapon like this?" I replied while showing him the cursed Odachi.
"It's a sha you can't enter Earl Timoti's main dining room with a weapon, Lily-sama," he replied with a sense of unease.
I imdiately looked at Mio happily giving her tanto weapon to one of the gurds of Earl Timoti's main dining room.
"Momo, if I leave you in a place like this. What will you do?" I asked Momo in a small voice that was inaudible to the guards in front of .
"Of course, I will break in and et my Monarch," Momo replied while releasing a terrifying magical energy pressure from behind her cursed Odachi sheath.
"Yes, do it slowly. I also don't want to be separated from you after causing so trouble in a place like this," I replied while whispering and erecting the cursed Odachi sheath like a pole.
"Please take good care of my weapon that can go berserk if separated from ," I said while giving a small code to Momo to release her terrifying magical energy pressure which beca one of the cursed swords created directly by the Goddess of Destruction.
Pssshhhh...
Ssshhhrrttt...
A terrifying ripple of magical energy began to co out of the cursed Odachi sheath and made several of the guard of Earl Timoti's main dining room look at .
"Yes, this is what happened when I parted with her. Too bad you will feel an unusual sensation of magical energy pressure for a while," I said while giving Momo a small idea to increase her magical energy pressure as ti went by.
Apart from myself and Mio, several guard around us began to look dizzy after feeling the magical energy pressure given by Momo.
Kraaaakkk...
Kllaanngg...
When the door to Earl Timoti's main dining room opened wide in front of , the magical energy pressure given by Momo imdiately entered the main dining room, making the atmosphere awkward and tense.
I imdiately walked in with Mio and directed my steps to a place that had beco my seat reservation.
Krraaakkk...
Klaanngg...
Along with the entrance of Earl Timoti's main dining room slowly closing tightly, it made the pressure of magical energy given by Momo increase sharply.
The atmosphere given by the weapon that was temporarily left by its owner had made the dinner atmosphere filled with awkwardness and holding back the pressure of magical energy that made the body's response feel strange.
When Mio and I had sat on the chairs that had been provided for us, a friendly greeting was given by Earl Timoti.
"Thank you for accepting the sudden dinner invitation from my imdiate family like this, Lily-sama," said Earl Timoti with his body movents that looked stiff and polite.
"Instead, I am the one who expresses gratitude for inviting to enjoy dinner like this, Earl Timoti," I said while positioning myself as a lucky guest who could experience a dinner that was invited directly by Earl Timoti's imdiate family which was composed of several previous generations.
My gaze was now directed to the other mbers of Earl Timoti's imdiate family and found several noble girls who had asked to spar with them with wooden swords.
"Ah, so they are part of Earl Timoti's main family from different family heads," I grumbled a little while looking around .
"You are too humble, Lily-sama. It makes feel awkward about this..." While saying that, we were surprised by Momo's intensity which increasingly showed the density of her magical energy which had started to move out of control.
"Erm, by the way, forgive for make uncomfortable feeling like this. This unique weapon of mine does have a bit of a problem if it is separated from for too long. May I take it so that this one weapon of mine can feel at ease?" I asked to give a hint about the weapon that cannot be separated from its owner for too long.
Earl Timoti's gaze seed to understand my complaints which were against the rules that had occurred in every generation of Earl Timoti's main family who were having dinner together like this.
"Lily-sama, you can take your weapon as an exception," said Earl Timoti as he made an important decision right like this.
"Eh? Wouldn't that break the established rules?" I replied by giving Earl Timoti.
"Lily-sama... I already said that this will be an exception for Lily-sama," replied Earl Timoti in a calm tone and tried to control his body so as not to drown too much in the overflow of magical energy given by Momo as a cursed Odachi.
Pssshhh...
The pressure of magical energy from the cursed Odachi sheath began to enter Earl Timoti's main dining room, it made several Butlers and Maids on duty faint after seeing the dense magical energy managed to penetrate the main door filled with thick and airtight iron.
"Uhm, should I take my Odachi which is getting sulky and sulking like this?" I asked while waiting for confirmation from Earl Timoti.
"Yes, Lily-sama. I beg you... forgive us for such a stupid rule that doesn't seem to apply to your main weapon," said Earl Timoti with his face getting paler.
Drruutt...
I just leaned my back on the back of the chair and stared at the entrance of Earl Timoti's main dining room.
Along with my little observation, I saw several of Earl Timoti's main family mbers looking fine with the increasing pressure of magical energy like this.
"But that would make feel like I'm breaking the rules set by Earl Timoti himself. As a guest, I can't accept any more leniency after what happened," I said, trying to act calm to Earl Timoti.
My stubborn attitude and behavior were in line with Momo's efforts to spread the pressure of her magical energy that could ruin the mood and mind.
So of Earl Timoti's main family began to laugh and felt their bodies sink into a sense of discomfort that was still safe within the reasonable limits that I had set.
"Don't overdo it, Momo..."
"Do it slowly and get stronger every minute."
Together with my other whispers that only Momo could hear, it made the dinner atmosphere under the heavy pressure of Momo's magical energy as a cursed Odachi.
Earl Timoti who seed unable to stand the pressure of the magical energy given by Momo imdiately got up from his seat and walked towards the entrance.
His hand slowly opened the entrance of the main dining room to take my cursed Odachi which was emitting strong magical energy.
With the courage that Earl Timoti had, he took the sheath of the cursed Odachi and brought it into the main dining room to where I was sitting like this.
"Lily-sama..." With those soft words, Earl Timoti seed to hand over my cursed Odachi which slowly removed the strong pressure of its magical energy.
That made the awkward dinner atmosphere end with the disappearance of the magical energy pressure given by Momo.
I imdiately held the sheath of the cursed Odachi and thanked Earl Timoti for breaking his family rule.
"Thank you very much, Earl Timoti."
