Sure, if you want. Can't say I expected this kind of interest coming from you, though.
linkShezvolume_up
I dunno, it's not really something I wanna go showing off to people if I can avoid it.
linkSylvainvolume_up
Oh, come on. Can't you make a tiny exception just for me? I'm curious about something.
linkShezvolume_up
All right, fine. Can't say I expected this kind of interest coming from you, though.
linkShezvolume_up
It'd be one thing if it were Dimitri or Felix asking— you know how they get about weapons. But you?
linkSylvainvolume_up
You do remember I'm the heir to House Gautier, don't you? I've been studying the art of combat ever since I was just a kid.
linkShezvolume_up
Well, you always skip out on training, so... Anyway, here. This work?
linkSylvainvolume_up
It sure does. What a weird sword. You know what it's made of? It doesn't look like iron or steel to me.
linkShezvolume_up
I couldn't tell you. Honestly, I have no idea.
linkSylvainvolume_up
What about how you can make it appear right out of thin air? Is that some sort of magic?
linkShezvolume_up
Nah, not exactly. It kinda just...comes to me when I call it.
linkSylvainvolume_up
Well, that's vague. One more question, then. Would I be able to use your sword if I wanted to?
linkShezvolume_up
Ngh, doubt it. The thing vanishes the second I let go of it.
linkShezvolume_up
But hey, why do you wanna know so much about it anyway?
linkSylvainvolume_up
I guess I was just thinking how nice it'd be if there were more weapons like yours out in the world.
linkSylvainvolume_up
You know, a Hero's Relic can take down hundreds or even thousands of soldiers in a single swing. Depending on who's doing the swinging, of course.
linkSylvainvolume_up
But as soon as the wielder dies, that's it. If you don't have a Crest, it's nothing more than a fancy-looking hunk of...whatever they're made of.
linkSylvainvolume_up
Of course, that wouldn't be an issue if everyone could just use a sword like yours.
linkShezvolume_up
Maybe so, but that doesn't make it possible. I mean, there's still so much even I don't know about it.
linkSylvainvolume_up
Right. It's not like you can just make a second one or something.
linkShezvolume_up
That's...actually a pretty interesting idea. You've given this a lot of thought, haven't you?
linkSylvainvolume_up
Hey, you're talking to the future Margrave Gautier here, remember? Of course I'd think about this kind of stuff.
linkSylvainvolume_up
After all, us nobles wouldn't have nearly as much work to do if everyone could fight with the Relics.
linkSylvainvolume_up
And then I could spend all my time flirting with you instead.
