I still wonder why we’re going on a date, but oh well.
I have to accompany her.
『”Yes! That’s the spirit!”』
Although this annoying sword will also accompany us.
[Is there a place you want to go?]
[Let’s see…..]
As if she hadn’t thought of that, Aria looked unsure.
[Go to the weapons shop?]
[Not a place you go on a date]
[So …… a combat arena?]
[I won’t say no, but it seems very bloody to me ……]
[I’m sorry… ..I have always been one with the sword, so I don’t know much about these things… ..]
Apparently Aria has no dating experience.
I can hardly say that I have experience due to my age… ..
[Why don’t we go to the theater?]
The Royal Theater was created just when I was in the capital about 20 years ago and basically some kind of plays was going on every day.
There are several scenarios, and there are times when multiple plays are performed at the same time.
Luckily there was a play that is just starting at the time.
Although it would generally be fine for it to be of violent battles, but it the current play was about love.
Well, it can’t be helped.
『”Moron! This is when you have to choose the love story on a “date”! 』
Seriously?
But unexpectedly it was a story rich in action scenes.
It represents a love between characters from different societies, the protagonist is a common commoner who falls in love with the heroine who is the daughter of a great nobleman, and the two run away.
While being pursued, they somehow tried to escape the territory, but before they succeeded the heroine was captured and taken back to the mansion. And the protagonist went to prison.
After that, the heroine was forced into an unwanted marriage.
Unable to say goodbye to the person she loves, she would go to a distant place where her fiance was.
But in the middle of that, the protagonist appeared.
He heard about the heroine’s marriage in prison, and attempted a rescue at the cost of his life.
The protagonist managed to pass the enemy network of knights who were escorting with a strange strategy, took the heroine’s hand and escaped again.
But soon, the one standing in their way, was the son of a great aristocrat who was supposed to be the heroine’s fiance.
That son of the great aristocrat has great skill, and has won many sword competitions.
Even so, the protagonist accepted his challenge.
Everyone was convinced of the protagonist’s defeat —– but because of his love, a miracle occurred, and he was able to obtain victory.
And finally he was able to keep the heroine and had a happy ending… ..that was detailed.
When the play finished, sobbing sounds could be heard everywhere.
To my impression the feelings of the two people had been fulfilled, I was slightly moved.
[… ..It was a good play, wasn’t it?]
[Yes]
But, the last battle gave me a strange feeling of déjà vu… ..
Well, my battle with Lyos didn’t have that kind of emotion.
And not much can be said about how to win.
As we discussed our impressions of the play, Aria and I walked together.
I think it was the a good idea to go to the theater.
Then we went to the market, we tried sightseeing, and somehow we both enjoyed the capital.
In this way, we look like a real couple.
No, due to the age difference, surely the people around will see us as father and daughter, or in another way, that I have hired Aria for a date… ..
When the sun went down, we went into a restaurant.
