Chapter 149: The Tin Knight and The City of Scales (9)
While Dorothea and Adelaide were heading to their respective destinations.
You were walking along the street with Sophia.
Sophia’s pace was leisurely, and she occasionally stopped to observe the street scenery, sometimes buying items from shops whose purpose was hard to guess.
Naturally, conversation blossomed between Sophia and you.
[The ‘Tin Knight’ expresses admiration that Dorothea’s staff attacks are becoming more threatening by the day!]
[The ‘Tin Knight’ expresses pride that Adel often trains by herself these days without being told to!]
It was mostly you who chattered, and Sophia who listened.
Your words had no particular set topic and were all over the place, as if following the flow of consciousness, which was a luxury you couldn’t enjoy when with Dorothea.
After all, Dorothea would raise physical objections, saying that all sorts of messages were constantly ringing in her head.
Since the brooch you possessed delivered messages indiscriminately to anyone nearby who had been infused with mana once, without distinguishing targets, it was impossible to speak to only specific targets unless physically separated like this.
From the outside, it looked like you were silent and only Sophia was responding, so some passersby gave strange looks, but none approached to speak.
It might have been because they felt intimidated by your appearance, looking fully armored under the hot scorching sun, or perhaps because of Sophia’s somewhat transcendent atmosphere.
