Translated by: ShinigamiTori
Chapter 141 ? TKG 2
“W-Whoa…! It’s super cool!”
When Julius opened it, a white and gold bow was revealed.
It’s embedded with various large gemstones, each offering effects such as boosting attack power or casting defensive spells.
To put it simply, it was beautiful. It was gorgeous, stylish, and refined. The thought of this being my bow made my heart race.
“Eh, wait, what about the arrows?”
“They’ll be formed using your magic, Rene.”
“Wow, that’s amazing.”
I was genuinely surprised by the sheer fantasy and convenience. It seems that by channeling magic and pulling the string, an arrow is created, and you can keep shooting until you run out of magic.
If I can learn to handle various elemental magic well, I could even imbue the arrows with fire, water, and other magical effects. The possibilities are endless, and it fills me with excitement.
As I gazed at the bow with sparkling eyes, I noticed Julius and Mylene looking bewildered.
“… Is this really just a regular bow?”
“Maybe. The shop owner really liked you, though.”
“It definitely doesn’t look like a standard piece. What is it made of?”
“I was told it’s made from dragon bones, but I didn’t ask for specifics. Still, the magical energy is enough to give me chills.”
The two of them seem to have picked up on something from the bow and are exchanging glances.
This must be one of those ‘special sensations only the strong can feel’ moments you often see in battle manga.
“It’s definitely on a different level…”
Of course, as a mediocre magician, I have no idea how amazing this is, but to match the atmosphere, I cross my arms and say something that sounds profound with a serious expression.
Although it’s a mystery what exactly is so exceptional, it’s clear that my magic proficiency is on a completely different scale from theirs, and not in a good way.
“Anyway, try holding it. I’ll get more information when I go get my sword.”
“Got it, thank you!”
Feeling a flutter of excitement, I took the offered bow.
Despite its large and robust appearance, it’s magically lightened and can be easily held.
It felt oddly familiar and natural in my hand, as if I had been accustomed to it for a long time.
??This is a weapon made for me. I feel a surge of motivation to develop the skills that match this bow.
“Right, you should give it a name. Just concentrate your magic on the bow and contemplate it.”
Apparently, naming it improves the connection with the weapon, but I’m struggling to come up with one.
“Hmm… What should I do… I can’t come up with any ideas.”
“You don’t need to think too hard about it. Just think of what you feel when you see this bow, what you associate with it, or what you like. I use a red spear, and I named it Garnet.”
“T-That’s so cool….!”
The name itself is cool, but just imagining Mylene-sama fighting with a spear makes my heart flutter. Without a doubt, her appearance must be as beautiful as a goddess descending upon the battlefield.
In fact, I have always felt that this contrasting color scheme of white and gold reminds me of something.
“Ah, that’s right, like tamago kake gohan?Ah!?”[1]
The moment I muttered that, the bow suddenly glowed brightly. Stunned by what had happened, I watched as Julius peered into my hands.
“It looks like the name has been decided.”
“Eh….?”
The light just now apparently signified that the weapon had accepted the name, and I couldn’t stop myself from sweating nervously.
What a disaster. This incredibly cool and amazing bow ended up being named ‘Tamago Kake Gohan’ (Egg Over Rice).
As it stands, even serious battle scenes will be ruined. I frantically asked if there was any chance to redo it, but was told it was already too late.
“So, what name did you give it?”
“Uh… TKG….”
I feel like it sounds a little better when I abbreviate it.
“That’s a cool name. What does it mean?”
“Um… it’s something I really like.”
“Mm. It sounds powerful.”
Strangely enough, both of them gave it high praise, and I can’t hide my perplexity.
Thankful that ‘Tamago Kake Gohan’ doesn’t exist in this world, I spoke to TKG, saying, “Nice to meet you.”
It’s my partner from now on, and I must cherish it. Besides, I love tamago kake gohan, so it’s all good.
“Julius, thank you so much!”
“You’re welcome. Let’s try practicing later.”
“Yes, I’d appreciate it.”
For now, I carefully placed TKG on the bed and asked the maid for Julius’ tea, then sat down again.
Since this was the first time the three of us were together, I asked something I had been curious about.
“Come to think of it, how long have you two been close?”
“We’re not really that close, but we’ve known each other for a long time. I think we first met when we were about eight years old.”
“Yeah. It started when Mylene chose me as her escort based on my looks at the Duke family gathering.”
Apparently, noble children often accompany their parents to various events from a young age.
