...
In a luxurious room prepared inside the Atsuta Shrine.
We had already secured lodging in Nagoya, but since it was getting late and we had stayed at the shrine for a long time, it was more convenient to come to this room.
Thanks to the consideration of Akiba, the senior priestess of this place, there was no problem for us outsiders to be in this room.
And here, I said with a rather perplexed look, “Hey Ga-eun... You didn’t have to tell me all that.”
The one who made me perplexed was none other than Moon Ga-eun.
My girlfriend, sitting right in front of me, grinning and telling me the story.
Was it because of our long-awaited reunion?
Or was it because of her growth...?
She was excitedly telling me about the information of the new runes she had obtained, including [Valkyrie of the Battlefield].
Three runes in total, all of which showed overwhelming performance.
“Why~ Jae-hyun, these are the powers I gained because you told me about them, right?”
“How is that because I told you? You qualified and were lucky enough to get them.”
“Heh, is that so?”
Moon Ga-eun smiled again.
Seeing her like that, I couldn’t help but let out a wry laugh as well.
Recently, she had been looking unnecessarily dejected.
Despite possessing top-tier skills in the archer class, she felt her abilities were falling behind because of her rapidly improving friends, and she seemed to feel impatient about that...
But now that she had regained her confidence, I felt good too.
And I was amazed once again by her growth.
‘She really is amazing.’
Although I did give her a little push, I actually didn’t expect Moon Ga-eun to grow to this incredible extent.
‘Well, if not, I can just contract Fenrir.’
If there are no wolves, I just need to find one elsewhere.
At any rate, contracting a high-level wolf divine beast seemed like it would be the key to further excessively developing Moon Ga-eun’s rune.
“But Akiba was really amazing too. What I did this time was practically pillaging a shrine treasure... yet she handled it without a hitch.”
At those words, I slowly nodded my head.
The catalyst that enabled Moon Ga-eun’s reawakening, the [Ring of Freya].
Even if it was just a shiny trinket at first, it was ultimately an asset held by Atsuta Shrine.
To instantly turn such a ring into scrap, it was an issue that could have caused problems.
But it seems Akiba took the initiative and handled that part well.
“She’s an influential figure within the shrine. She said she had been active as a combat shrine maiden for a long time.”
“She really respected you?”
“...She seems to think so, generously. But well, we just owe each other favors.”
While Akiba thinks I resolved her wish, without her, things wouldn’t have been easy for me in Japan either.
Akiba Miyu could be considered my biggest gain among the connections I made during my deployment to Japan.
“That’s... really all?”
“What are you imagining?”
Moving closer from her seat, Moon Ga-eun made a petulant expression for no reason.
Her jealous look was cute.
It was hard to hide my smile.
Unable to suppress my laughter, I hugged her tightly as she approached.
“There’s nothing between us. And you’re prettier.”
“Really?”
“Really.”
“Heh-.”
Moon Ga-eun immediately burst into laughter, as if she had never been sulking.
Then, as if suddenly remembering something...
She whispered in my ear.
“Jae-hyun.”
“Yes?”
“That... Shrine maiden outfit, did you order it?”
“...Ah.”
...Akiba, I told you to keep it a secret.
But she figured it out anyway.
I was momentarily flustered but soon nodded.
It was true that I wanted to see Moon Ga-eun in a shrine maiden outfit.
But then, I heard something unexpected from her.
“Want me to... Show you me wearing it now?”
At that moment.
For the first time in my life, I felt Moon Ga-eun’s voice is seductive.
It seemed her growth...
Was not just limited to her abilities as a Holder.
