Shin Sang Legend
Tsundere
Soon, all the lizardmen have fallen.
Not only did they fall by Diere's dagger, they were also felled by Lumia's fist and Melika's magic.
The three girls showed superhuman abilities. Especially Diere, which made Shin change the way he saw it to some degree.
Even Lumia and Melika gave an adoring look at Diere.
“As expected, Diere is still very strong.”
“No, he should be stronger than before, right?”
Lumia and Melika came to Diere's side and continued chatting like that.
It seems like the two girls are diere fans.
Merely, did they really forget that Diere was actually younger than them?
Well, there's no rule that you can't idolize someone younger. Wasn't there a group of women who were crazy about following fresh meat that was much younger than them?
“You have worked hard.”
While Shin was thinking about random things, Vivian came over and checked on her friends. His expression again became gentle and friendly, completely different from the strong and confident appearance he had just shown.
But of course, Diere did not pay much attention to everyone's praise.
“So much it's actually nothing.” Diere's voice was unshakable, “At least, I still can't compare to Her Highness Princess.”
Those words caught Shin's attention.
Your Highness the princess?
Who'sis that?
Regardless of Shin's thoughts, Vivian spoke again while laughing.
“It doesn't make sense to compare you to the one ‘itu’. Already within the Partner Kingdom, no one in this world could match him. To find someone who can definitely win against him, even in all three worlds, you might still be limited to someone of the same level as the three great goddesses and the six great demon kings.”
Yet…
“Hm?”
Shin suddenly gave a surprise.
Because, for some reason, Diere suddenly turned his head and looked at him.
Although he had no way of seeing the expression or gaze behind the hood, Shin could still feel that the gaze that Diere gave him was filled with some meaning.
It seemed like he was giving Shin a judgement, as if he was being used in comparison to something.
That action was something Shin really did not understand.
“[Magic Sword] earlier was really amazing.”
With those words, Shin tried to signal Diere.
“Hm.”
Diere was silent for a moment and nodded. At least it was a response.
“... If one could learn it, no matter who it was, it would definitely be something to be proud of.”
Seeing that Diere's response was so weak, Shin grimaced and continued to try to signal him.
“Hm.”
This time, Diere looked at Shin strangely, followed by his cold nod, and once again gave a response .
“... Although you are still very young, but as the saying goes, the first achiever leads, so even though it is like being a teacher, you should be able to do it, right?”
Shin maintained a stiff smile and continued to gesture.
“…”
Diere fell silent and no longer gave any more responses.
“…”
Shin was also at a loss for words.
That girl is really hard to deal with.
“... What do they do?”
“Is that some kind of signal?”
At the side, Vivian, Lumia, and Melika looked at each other cluelessly.
The atmosphere there suddenly became a bit strange.
Shin and Diere just stared at each other like that, also speechless.
After a while, Shin felt he had to attack.
“I..”
Shin continued to build up hundreds of additional signals to use in his mind and prepared to do it again seriously.
Unfortunately, Shin's courage and perseverance were lost by a single sentence from Diere.
“You want to learn?”
Diere just directly pierced into the heart of the subject without avoiding any problems.
Shin who really wanted to do so was suddenly countered with no way to reveal it. The signal that was about to come out of his mouth could no longer be stopped, so he ended up giving such a response.
“S-Who wants to learn? Not me!”
Shin's words became like that, and his tone was also filled with a strange tension.
“”””…””””
This time, not only Diere, but also Vivian, Lumia and Melika all fell silent. They just don't have words.
Shin managed to respond as well, and he really wanted to slap his own mouth.
‘Where does this tsundere attitude come from!?’ Shin wanted to die there.
However, at this moment, Diere said something.
“I can teach you.”
Diere actually showed such an attitude in front of everyone there.
“Diere?” Vivian was suddenly surprised.
“Eh?” Lumia was also dumbfounded.
“Teaching?” Melika finds the same unexpected.
That was because, anyone who knew Diere would know, the magical girl was not someone who cared about getting along with others. His attitude towards others was generally very cold, and only with his peers in the same party would he slightly loosen his attitude. Even that was only in terms of his attitude, and he was basically not the type of person who would voluntarily help others.
Plus, Diere was also very wary of Shin before, and he had been watching him carefully the entire time.
For Diere to suddenly make such a change, it was completely unexpected for everyone.
What was more unexpected was that Diere would actually state that he would teach Shin the [Magic Sword] skill very clearly.
“That's [Magic Sword]? High-level skills that can only be learned with low odds for close range type level 70.”
The words Melika put out should be what everyone who understands the situation wants to say, right?
A high-level skill that even a level 70 melee type only had a low chance of learning. Diere had managed to learn it before level 60 and he was already known as an unparalleled prodigy, but now he wanted a level 10 beginner to learn it?
Anyone who knows will only have a few words: Stop messing around.
But Diere didn't mind much.
“Let's find me after we get back to Lamdrion.”
With that, Diere turned around and left.
Lumia and Melika once again looked at each other before hurriedly following.
“It...”
Shin still had not managed to react and was still just blinking.
The abandoned Vivian looked at Shin deeply and meaningfully, and, after a while, smiled.
“See? I say that someone has lowered their guard against you, you just don't know, that's it.”
“Good.”
It seemed, as a Hero who moved to another world, he had some weight after all.
