Suzuki is Cute Even In A Savage World

(And yet, it's this prick–!)

She hated Suzuki, the person in front of her, from the bottom of her heart. Suzuki was in a state of shock from being hit in the cheek by Aina, but soon became furious and shouted.

"It hurts! What the hell did you do that for?"

Excella intervened to try to stop him. However, like Suzuki, Aina's frustration was not subsiding.

"You treat the holy female attire that Lady Leelou made for you with such DISRESPECT!!"

"HUH–!? I don't remember asking for this thing!!"

"How much effort do you think Lady Leelou went through to make this gear?"

"I don't know! If that's the case, why didn't Master wear it herself? She is a woman!"

Aina became a little calmer when she heard Suzuki's words.

"Lady Leelou said that she has a fatal flaw that prevents her from exerting Pritis to its fullest!"

For a moment, the place was quiet. Suzuki also asked with a serious expression on his face.

"T-That is?"

"…she said it's because she has monolid eyes!"

"That BS reason!!"

"I am sure you can understand! Lady Leelou is more beautiful than cute!"

"I mean, she can look however she wants with her ability to transform, monolid eyes or not!!"

"She said that cuteness that is manufactured is not good enough. Pritis has to radiate from the inside! You have to be spiritually pretty, or else it is no good!"

"That just sounds like a convenient excuse to me!! I'm sure she won't wear it because it is embarrassing!! That's why you make me do all this dirty work, Master!!"

"D-Dirty work…?"

Aina took pride in her abilities. Not only because of the praise she received from Leelou but also because it was the ray that gave hope to this savage world ——— that was what she believed was Pritis. Aina's fist trembled.

"Seriously, you are so unmanly!! Aren't you?"

"Wearing THIS attire is unmanly!!"

"I-I also think so…"

Excella, who had remained silent until now, spoke up.

"There is no such thing as a man that wears women's clothes! Men have to be manly! And women should be womanly!"

Aina clicked her tongue, thinking that this was antiquated thinking. However, it was a way of thinking that was completely expected. In this world, they were taught at an early age that 'Men should be manly! And women should be womanly.' Excella, who was educated as the Princess of Leirune, must feel even more strongly about this. However…

"Right now, the issue is not if it is man or woman!!"

"If that's the case, I'll wear this instead of Lord Hero!"

"It doesn't matter what you wear!! Moron!!"

"M-Moron!? Please don't call me a moron!! Stupid!!"

"Anyway, I'm not wearing it no matter what!!"

"Didn't I tell you to wear it!? This MORON!!"

"Wha–? Don't call me a moron!! Stupid!!"

The three of them started quarreling, "Stupid, moron, STUPID!" with each other. Soon after, a knocking sound was heard, and the door opened.

"Ah, uhm–. I've been waiting for a while, but you haven't come at all… What's going on—?"

Zhaviest was smiling with an awkward expression on his face.

◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆

(Fuuh. My earlier emotional outburst. I regret it…)

Excella was ashamed that she, as royalty, had called each other "Moron, stupid."

However, that garment that she saw earlier. She was vehemently opposed to the idea of letting a hero undergo such humiliation.

"Man should be manly, woman should be womanly"!

(Furthermore, I want Lord Hero to look cool while he saves the world!)

While thinking that, Excella looked at Zhaviest and the hero facing each other standing in front of the chapel. Around them were women and children with torches, who were watching the scene with gentle smiles on their faces as if they were enjoying a festival.

Aina was standing next to Excella. Excella thought about apologizing but the mood for it was not right at the moment. Aina was looking at the hero with the same as-ever frowning face. After all, the hero had not worn the holy cross-dress.

"In any case, let's get started, shall we?"

Zhaviest's eyes were piercingly sharp, completely different from those he had shown at mealtime. Similar to a soldier's hunting the enemy on a battlefield.

(He called it a little clash, but…)

Excella felt uneasy. In front of the hero who had a nervous look on his face, Zhaviest spread both of his arms. Petals immediately fluttered surrounding Zhaviest's arms.

"T-This is?"

"It is Aura materialization, you know."

Aina, who was standing next to her, said in a whispered voice.

"When the aura on those flower petals touches the target, it manifests healing abilities."

"B-But…"

Flower petals were swirling and whirling in front of Zhaviest. Eventually, a large number of flower petals gathered to form a human figure.

"…From 'Peony Bloom Revelation' Gospel — 'Twelve Choirst'"

Zhaviest muttered, and one by one, the flower petals transformed. In front of the hero, twelve figures that looked humanoid appeared. Like Excella, Aina was surprised at this situation.

"I-It's not like the last time I saw it…! I knew it! The Heavenly Power is not only healing magic! He can also convert this holy power into an offensive power! When it is dedicated to healing, it is named 'flower'! And when it's specialized to attack is…"

"An… gel…!"

The word came naturally from Excella's lips.

(Such beauty…!)
