"I can't find any fault with your craftsmanship."
Eugene smiled and put down the dagger.
He looked into Chun's bright, expectant eyes and nodded gently.
After several transactions, the two have developed a tacit understanding.
Every time Eugene comes to collect his equipment, it brings her a huge surprise!
"This time, it's the worst."
Eugene's words immediately heightened the anticipation, and Chun was so excited that she wanted to scream like a little girl!
Ignoring any gender barriers, she darted forward and hooked her arm around Eugene's neck.
"Long live the boss!!"
The surging waves crashed against Eugene's arm, filling him with exhilaration and immense pleasure.
When Liu saw the spectacular scene, his eyes widened in surprise, and he hesitated to speak.
Good grief, aren't you a dwarf? Why is there such a huge difference in appearance!
The two chatted casually as they entered Chun's personal space.
This small museum-like interior is filled with Tsubaki's works.
Liu had been here once before, but she was still amazed by it.
Just as she was immersed in this dazzling world of swords and spears.
Chun gave Eugene a mysterious smile.
"You guys really made the right choice coming here today."
“A distinguished lady has specially asked me to prepare a gift for you.”
Gift?
Eugene didn't think of anything for a moment.
But when Chun led him to the end and opened the display case, Eugene suddenly realized what was going on.
He stared at the long, black overcoat for a long while, then let out a soft chuckle.
"How was it? Were you surprised?"
Chun observed Eugene's reaction, trying to discern a deeper level of understanding within it.
"An accident is definitely an accident."
He turned to Chun, who generously revealed everything she knew.
"That young lady kept her promise; she's always been thinking about that fire-breathing weirdo."
"She kept her promise, but what about you?" Eugene asked meaningfully.
Chun immediately got stuck and shrank back.
She scratched her head sheepishly, realizing that revealing client information without authorization was a violation of professional ethics.
Even just revealing that Eugene might be a Flamethrower's partner is extremely inappropriate.
"Hehe, that little girl looked so pitiful, I just had a moment of weakness."
A 38-year-old woman deliberately acted cute in an attempt to get away with it.
If Eugene hadn't seen her magnanimity, he would have definitely squeezed a good sum out of her.
He shook his head and sighed, then took off the garment.
"It's a pity that he/she is no longer here."
Chun was stunned. If Eugene had said so, then it seemed that the fire-breathing man had indeed died at Ais's hands.
She was about to say something comforting when she saw Eugene skillfully putting on the trench coat.
To be honest, they don't fit quite right.
Eugene was now slender and thin, and his shoulders were not quite up to the task.
Could it really be his son?
Chun was muttering to herself when she saw Eugene turn his head and give her a smile that truly held a mysterious aura.
"Since we've met by chance, I'll tell you one more secret."
"If you can't hold on this time, I'll have to find a new partner, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Chun nodded vigorously, regardless of whether it was true or not.
With that statement in mind, no matter how pitiful Ais tried to be, she would never utter a single word.
"Don't worry, I will definitely—"
"The clock strikes twelve."
The words have not yet fallen.
The blond, dark-skinned, tall, and muscular man with a devilishly handsome face strained as he straightened his imposing garment.
He tossed his golden hair aside and gave the stunned, bewildered, and shocked master a wicked smile.
"Remember this, it's a secret that absolutely cannot be revealed between us."
180, how many times have you lied like that? You still have the nerve to say that!
"Gah! You, you! You!"
Chun was so astonished by the man's magical transformation that she was speechless.
Even a level 5 master craftsman who has slain countless demons is now in a state of mental confusion due to this sudden change!
Until the last second, she was still clinging to her own reasoning.
He believed that the old man who had connected him with the fire-breathing man was merely an agent of the fire-breathing man.
But Eugene's simple incantation completely shattered her psychological image!
With blond hair, dark skin, a wicked look, and an incredibly well-fitting outfit.
Who else could it be but the Flamethrower!
"You...you're not dead?"
Chun hesitated for a long time, her face turning red, before she finally managed to squeeze out this question.
"...To be precise, the one in front of you is not dead."
"The last guy who wore this outfit and fought against the Sword Maiden is long dead!"
???
What does that mean, anyway?!
Chun was even more confused.
You didn't die, but the Flamethrower died?
She suddenly snapped to her senses and cried out, "Ah! It's identity, identity, right!"
"From now on, consider the identity of the Flamethrower as dead!"
"But how did you manage to fool Ais? She's that Sword Maiden!"
Faced with Chun's emotional outburst and attempt to justify herself, Eugene calmly and effortlessly gave her a smooth talk.
His tone was eerily calm.
18 "...I told you, he's already dead."
"Died by Ais Wallenstein's sword."
"Impossible! Then who are you!" Cold sweat poured down Chun's forehead.
She was increasingly confused by the veiled meaning in his words.
"I am me, and the old man is the old man."
? ? ? ? ? ?
Chun nearly choked on Eugene's words.
Her head was buzzing from seeing the ghost during the day, and she couldn't calm down to think about the deeper meaning of those words.
To make a deeper impression, Eugene fabricated a lie for Ais.
The lie was that he came from the future.
Ais concealed this from everyone, leading them to believe that the Flamethrower was merely a mortal who possessed the secrets of the future.
However, everything has its flaws.
How could someone from the future not have a past life?
The old man and the blond man are the perfect disguises for Eugene.
He said that not only Chun would be deeply involved in this, thinking about the relationship all day long.
When Ais learns of this, an even more wondrous encounter occurs.
To make a girl fall in love with you, you must first make her think about you.
Even a carefully crafted lie is better than laying all the cards on the table right away.
Creating a persona is also an important part of attracting girls!
Anyway, you have to keep this a secret.
Eugene leaned closer to the dazed Chun and gently flicked her forehead.
"If we can't help but gossip to people again, then both the old man and I will disappear."
"Hmm!" Chun looked at the man's wicked smile and didn't know how to react.
This person seems like a very dangerous and ominous individual, doesn't he?
Although in the eyes of the Sword Maiden, he was an absolutely wonderful person.
