บท 97: Trisha’s Blade

"Hey! Don't just flash your sword like that!"

"Be careful when unsheathing!"

"Come on…!"

Trisha hurriedly turned and apologized to the passersby who complained about her sudden unsheathing.

As she did so, Rey noticed a thin wooden casing that hung behind her. It was placed so vertically that no one would notice it if she stood before them.

'A-ah! The hilt was behind her, huh?'

"It looks great, right?" Rey's attention returned to the blade as Trisha presented it to him.

'Hmm…' Rey's eyes thoroughly observed the blade, and a pleasantly surprised expression took over his face a moment after.

'This… this looks really nice!'

"May I…?" He asked, placing his hands forward to collect the blade.

"S-sure. Just be careful."

Rey nearly yanked the blade from the surprised Trisha, closely looking at the entire sword—from the hilt, to the edges, and everything else about it.
