The Falsely Executed Marquis’ Daughter Wants to Live Peacefully with Fluffy God

Katariona Asks the Blacksmith to Modify her Small Sword

Next door to Ayano-san’s cafe, there was a blacksmith run by Sotaro-san. 

It is unusual to see a cafe and blacksmith shop side by side.
However, since they appeared in the Hinoshima-style, it didn’t seem out of place. 

Peeking into the blacksmith shop, I saw Sotaro-san with a relaxed face, petting Leon. 

“So fluffy.
Fluffiness is nice.
So soothing.”

“Ummu.
You need to brush it down a little more.”

Leon and Sotaro-san are having a conversation!?

“Leon…….”

Sotaro-san discovered me standing at the entrance and smiled at me. 

“Yurie, isn’t it? Come on in.”

Sotaro-san invited me in, so I followed his lead inside. 

Inside, there was a pungent sell I had never smelled before.

“It’s the smell of cast iron.
Is it too much for you, young lady?”

“Uh, well… a little…….”

No, not really.
It’s quite strong, but……

Leon doesn’t seem to mind.
Ah! He has a barrier.
That’s not fair!

“You don’t have to push yourself.
For the time being, I try to keep it from leaking, so as to not bother the neighbors.
I can’t do anything about the inside.
I wish I had purification skills.” 

“My personal maid has the purification skill.
If you like, I can have her drop by for a visit.”

Sotaro-san was momentarily dazed.

“I appreciate that, but…..”

“Um! I have a favor to ask you.
Of course, I will pay for it.”

Saying so, I took out the small sword from the space.

The fact that Leon was talking to Sotaro-san meant that he trusted him. 

So, I decided that it would be safe to show him my true abilities. 

“Huh.
You have the storage skill? That’s convenient.
Mm? That small sword was forged by me.
Could it be that Yurie is Hikoshiro’s disciple?”

I had vaguely guessed so, but it was really Sotaro-san who forged this short sword. 

“That’s right.
My friend is also a disciple of Sotaro-san and has the same short sword.”

Sotaro-san gazed at the sword I was holding with a wistful look.

“So what do you want me to do for you?”

“Can you help me modify this sword into something I could carry around with me?”

“You mean a swordstick? An aristocrat’s daughter typically carries something like a parasol.
However, Yurie has the storage skill.
Is it really necessary to make it into a swordstick?”

I don’t know what the possession of the storage skill is like in countries aside from the Kingdom of Findalia.
But in this country, Spatial Magic is extremely special. 

Ryu, the god of time, said that he has never bestowed his magic upon anyone other than Marion-san and me. 

My intuition tells me that it is better to keep this ability hidden.

“There is a reason why I cannot reveal this ability.”

“Well, how about wearing a sword? There are female knights in this country, right?”

The Kingdom of Findalia has female knights.
It is also what some women aspire to be.

“I don’t want them to know that I’m practicing swordsmanship for a reason.”

“It’s complicated.”

It would have been better if our family was from a military family like Angel’s.
However, my family flourishes in commerce and agriculture.

“Okay.
I’ll take that offer.”

“Eh?”

“I have the blessing of the God of Blacksmithing.
I can turn weapons into magical tools.”

Tojurou-san was saying something like that.
Sotaro-san said that he has the blessing of the God of Blacksmithing …….

“Thank you!” I exclaimed, “I will pay your asking price.
And I’ll also grant Purification for this place.”

“Can I ask you for one more thing?”

Sotaro-san raised his index finger.

“And what might that be?”

“Let me fluff you up from time to time.”

Directly in front of Sotaro-san’s gaze was Leon.
Leon’s tail was wagging.

“Of course.”

The Fluffiness is justice.

I parted ways with Tria and Angel in front of the store, and headed for the blacksmith shop with Chris.

Chris also thought about carrying a short sword around with her.

When I was heading back to Ayano-san’s store, Leon remained at Sotaro-san’s place.
I wonder if he had taken a liking to Sotaro-san?

“I thought Fluffy-kun only liked women.”

“Don’t compare me to one of those cats that sells their favor .”

Leon frowned as if to say that he didn’t agree.

“But Leon is very fond of Sotaro-san, no?

“The palm of his hand is comfortable.”

Is the palm of a blacksmith’s hand warm?

“Oh? So my hands are not comfortable?”

I stroked Leon’s head.
It is not funny.

“That’s not what I meant! You stroke my head gently.
I mean his is comfortable in a different way than Rio’s palm.”

Does that mean that my palms are comfortable too?

“Are you jealous? Rio.”

Chris smirked at me as she peered into my face.

“No I’m not.”

She was right.
I felt annoyed and snapped at him. 

“Mofu god and I are the same sex.
And rest assured, Yurie.
I have a wife.”

Hm? Mofu god?

“Sotaro-san! You know that Leon is a god?”

“Yes.
I asked him because I could feel the divine energy emanating from the Mofugod.”

Tojurou-san had said the same thing when he first met Leon.

“The people of Hinoshima are strange.
What does divine energy feel like?”

Chris tilted her head curiously.

“H~m.
It’s like there’s something pure in the air.

I heard that there are not many people with magic power in Hinoshima.

It is rare to find people like Tojurou-san and Sotaro-san who have the blessings of the gods.
Kikuno-sama, a former god, is of course an exception.

Despite not being able to use magic, they have keen senses and are able to feel the breath of the gods living in nature.

ust listening to him made me feel like I was in a mystical land.

“Sotaro.
I am not Mofu god, I am Leon.
I will allow you to call me Leon.

“I’m more comfortable with Mofugami…….”

I know exactly what you mean! He’s a fluffy god, so why not Mofu god?

When I was naming Leon, I said ” Mofu-god ” and he rejected it.

“More importantly, does the princess have a small sword?”

Apparently, Sotaro-san knows that Chris is the princess.
The source of the information must be Ayano-san.

“Chris is fine.
The small sword is in Rio’s space.”

Chris didn’t want to show it to the Crown Prince, so I kept her small sword in my space.

I took out Chris’s small sword from my space.

At first glance, Chris’s and my swords were the same shape, and it was hard to tell them apart, so I put a different colored tassel on the hilt.
Chris has a gold tassel that represents her personal color, and I have a silver tassel.

“So what do Chris and Yurie want to make their short swords look like?”

“ I want a small knife, so I can put it in my garter belt.”

It was just like Marie’s.
Marie has a dark weapon in her maidservant uniform.
And of course, I saw that she had one in her garter belt as well.

“I prefer to use …… a hairpin.”

In the book The Ninja Law Records by Kikuno-sama, there is a female ninja named Princess Kohime who uses a hairpin as a weapon. 

I thought of Kohime’s hairpin for some reason, so I mentioned it to him.

“Rio.
That’s like Kohime.”

Chris is just like Marie.”

Chris, who was a fan of The Ninja Law Records, seemed to understand.

“Who is that? Who’s Kohime and who’s Marie?”

“Both of them use dark weapons.”

Leon answered Sotaro-san’s question like that.

Although Leon said that it was silly, I knew that he had been secretly reading The Ninja Records.

That was why I was certain that, aside from Marie, the little princess was a dark weapon user.

It seems that he will turn the small swords into magic tools as we requested.

We left the sword in Sotaro-san’s hands and headed home.
