“Unfortunately I’m dumb. Even though I gained more techniques, I won’t be able to use them very well. That’s why I will be using this.” Xenovia swings the Ex-Durandal. A huge crater is made in the ground along with the violent sound of an explosion. “-It will be enough with the destructive powers of Excalibur and Durandal.” Declaration of absolute destructive powers! …….Xenovia, can you also pay attention to using techniques since you are also a [Knight]…… With the way she uses them, it seems like she could perform better than me. Xenovia makes a displeased face after she realises I am looking at her. “Muu, Kiba. You thought I was a power idiot just now, didn’t you? But I have to say that the only one who specialises in techniques should be enough with just you. That’s why I will just aim for only destructive powers!”

“At this rate, you will become a self-proclaiming swordswoman, Xenovia.”

Having Irina say that to her, Xenovia seems to be in shock. It seems like she is opening her mouth wide and is saying “Gaan!”. Xenovia talks back with teary eyes.

“……Damn self-proclaiming Angel.”

That is basically a taboo to Irina, and she suddenly gets mad while putting on a weird face.

“I am an Angel! Right, Ise-kun? If it’s Ise-kun who is my childhood friend, you will understand that I’m a real Angel, right?”

She drags me into their quarrel! ……Oh man. When these two start an argument, they start with a horrible insult to each other and even I find them childish. But, she’s right. So Irina and I are childhood friends huh.

“Oh, if I think back, it certainly makes me and Irina childhood friends. I start to forget at times.”

Soon as I say that, Xenovia starts to chuckle.

“I see, so Irina is a self-proclaiming childhood friend. I see, I see.”

Ah, Xenovia attained a new word which she can use to tease Irina! Looks like I made a mistake! Irina makes a weirder face while having teary eyes.

“I am an Angel! I am his childhood friend! You are horrible!”

“Yay, a self-proclaiming childhood friend~.”

“Look who’s talking, self-proclaiming swordswoman! Even your brain is made up of muscles!”

……Ah, it makes me think that they are stupid and cute.

Everyone, can you believe it? Did you know that these two were swordswoman sent from the Church, and they had a dangerous vibe to them?
