Chapter 118: The Hero, the Saint, and the Sword Saint
The conversation between Hayato and Keisuke, who had reunited after a long time, continued without running out of topics.
The fact that their conversation often turned to vulgar topics was evidence that they were comfortable with each other.
Before they knew it, time had passed, and the women returned carrying a large load of goods. There was still quite some time before dinner.
“Village chief, we’re back! Oh, and Urgan-san, please put the luggage over here.”
“Hey, you bought an absurd amount again… Sorry, Urgan, for making you carry all this stuff.”
“I appreciate your concern, Village chief, but if you see the luggage in the hallway, you’ll be surprised… It’s not as simple as it seems.”
“Really? What in the world did you buy so much of?”
“Well, it’s a variety of things, really.”
Looking at them, Tachibana and Hazuki had very gentle expressions, especially when compared to Natsuki. Both of them were in high spirits as they crowded around Hayato. They seemed to have started a fashion show of the clothes they had bought, and Hayato was happily listening.
I found out from Tsubaki that they had gone to shops that were off-limits to male customers and made purchases on behalf of the others. Well, it was thoughtful of them to make sure they had their share.
“Keisuke-san, I bought something too.”
“Oh, really? Let me see. Are they clothes sold in town? I’m curious.”
“Oh, how about this one? Don’t you think it’s really cute?”
“…”
(No, Tsubaki-san, that’s not clothes… When you show something like that, it’s hard for an old man to react…)
I won’t say what it was, but apparently, they had bought some enticing items.
(Huh, what’s that hole for? Are you going to wear that? Seriously…)
After the fashion show, when I thought about discussing the invitation with Tachibana and Hazuki, they beat me to it.
It seemed that they had heard everything from Tsubaki and Natsuki and knew that I was inviting Hayato. It was convenient that they were so quick to respond, but just to be sure, I wanted to hear it from their own mouths.
“Could you please tell me why you want to become villagers, Tachibana and Hazuki?”
“May I go first?”
Facing each other and sitting properly, Tachibana began to speak.
“I have three reasons. The first and foremost reason is that I want to be with Hayato. You probably already know this, but the three of us are married. I have no intention of ever being apart from him.”
“I see. What are the other two reasons?”
“Swords and dungeons.”
“Yes, and?”
“That’s why: swords and dungeons. I want to wield the legendary sword created by Natsuki and the others in a high-difficulty dungeon.”
“The legendary sword? Is this it?”
I said, placing the magic iron sword I had on the table.
“Wow, is this it, Natsuki? It’s beautifully decorated… *Gulp* Keisuke-san, may I hold it?”
“Sure, but please don’t swing it around here. Not that you’re listening anymore…”
Tachibana, who had grabbed the sword as if to snatch it away, immediately started swinging it around in the spacious guest room. Well, that was fine, but… her expression was kind of ominous. I couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy. Next, I asked Hazuki.
“Leave the person with the scary expression over there… How about you, Hazuki?”
“Scary expression… *giggle* Sorry about that. I also want to be with Hayato, of course. And I want to live in a place where I won’t be subjected to unjust malice.”
“I see… But if you go to the village, you’ll naturally have to go to the dungeon, and are you prepared for the possibility of hurting people who are hostile to us?”
“That’s absolutely fine. I’ve experienced it several times in this dungeon… I’ve even killed people who were trying to kill us.”
“I understand. In that case, there’s no problem.”
While their expressions remained unchanged as they spoke, and with their combat experience, it should be fine.
I called Tachibana, who was still fascinated by the sword, back to reality and granted them permission to live in the village one by one. I conducted an appraisal.

As usual, there are an incredible number of skills. It seems that there are even more skills than before, and the skill levels have also generally increased. What’s common among the three of them is that several of their skill levels have reached 5. While the skills of everyone in the village were stuck at level 4, it seemed they were continuing to rise.
Their loyalty levels are also not a problem, and I believe they will increase further once they move to the village. Especially, I’m glad to see Hayato’s loyalty has exceeded 90.

After dinner, everyone decided to stay at the Merry Trading Company for the night.
I went to the warehouse after dinner, and when I entered the barrier, I heard consecutive announcements. This meant that I could enhance its abilities three times.
Of course, I didn’t plan to use them hastily right now. I intended to save them carefully until I obtained the “Secret of Village Skill Enhancement: 10,000pt” mentioned in the benefits of the Goddess’s Grace.
Regarding the faith points—when one more villager joined, it increased by 10 points. I confirmed this for all three people, so there shouldn’t be any mistake.
“Tomorrow morning, I’ll go shopping and leave the city by noon. During that time, Hayato and the others should gather and prepare their belongings. Try to be inconspicuous.”
“Understood. We’ll prepare early in the morning and return.”
“Urgan and Uruk, I’d like to ask you to be vigilant before departure too. There’s a possibility that Hayato and the others are being watched. If possible, we’d like to slip away discreetly.”
“Understood.”
“Leave it to us.”
In this way, Hayato and the others successfully became villagers, and the night grew late.
Since Natsuki was also here today, she had her own room.
“I wonder when these points will accumulate…” I thought about this for a moment and then realized I had fallen asleep without realizing it.
