Heavenly Blessed Reincarnator - 19 Engaged

” I don’t have a daughter but you’ve really helped us and How can I possibly repay this gratitude…”

The old man bowed down and thanked Touya.

Touya continued with an awkward smile at the mention of daughter and continued

” Don’t worry much about it. You’ve healed so you should be taking it slow now and try recuperating the blood that you loss by eating healthy food.”

Touya said in a worried tone to the old man to take it slow. He was naturally weak against old men It’s not that he had a thing for them but It just makes him feel the need to that old men are fragile like new born child and can break at anytime.

” Old man I was just joking about the daughter part.! Don’t be serious!”

Akio clarified the old man’s misunderstanding.

” I see…”the old man was deep in thought.

“I am grateful to you, the one called Touya! you are Jii’s, no not only Jii, but myself’s saviour!”

The blond young girl gave her words of gratitude in a prideful tone.

The carriage that was was attacked was of higher quality showing that these people were of some status.

“Apologies for the late greetings . I am called Leim a steward serving under the house of Duke Ortlinde . And this lady here is the daughter of the Duke, Sussie Elnea Ortlinde ,Her Highness.”

“Sussie Elnea Ortlinde! Please take care of me”

Akio thought

‘ Ah yes the customs , If one meets a royalty he has to show respect by bowing down.Should I bow down. Nah.’

“What’s wrong?”Touya asked

“What’s wrong you say…How can you remain so calm?! It’s the Duke family, Duke!” Elze throws out some common sense.

“The Duke, is the highest court rank… . unlike the other titles, That title is fundamentally only given to the royal family and no one else”

Lindze explained as to why they were tensed.

The young child further said

“Indeed . My father, Duke Alfred Ernes Ortlinde is the younger brother of his majesty the king.”

“So that means you’re the king’s niece right . That’s amazing”

‘ such ignorance is truly a bliss’

Touya was neither surprised or tensed he was just amazed at her status

“You do not look much surprised Touya . You must be an important person.”

Akio, Linze, Elze And Yae bowed down on their knees as to show respect.

” Sussie…sama? should I also… better do that”

“Sue is fine . This is not a place for formalities, it is not needed . As I have declared before, Touya and everyone is my life saver . Truthfully it should be us bowing our heads . Everyone, you can raise your heads”

The Four raised their heads and got up when Sue said as such . They’ve relieved some tension, but their appearance still shows stiffness excluding Akio of course.

Detective Touya started Investigating

“Even so, why is the daughter of a Duke in such a place?”

” I was returning from my Grandmothers, my mother’s mother, place . There was something that I wanted to investigate little bit . I stayed for about one month, and on my way back to the royal capital .”

“That’s when this all happened”

Touya was thinking deeply

Sue continued

“Because the assailant is already dead we don’t know his identity

or who ordered him, it’s all obscured now”

“My apologies”

Yae dropped her head while apologizing.

Akio went up to Yae and comforted her by tapping on her shoulder.

‘ Poor girl,

But sue was a sensible girl and continued

“Do no worry . I am thankful to you . You defeated him admirably”

“Such thankful words…I am grateful”

Yae deeply bowed her head again .

Touya asked

“And? So what’s your plan now”

“Regarding that matter,sir Touya..”

Leim who was close in the front opened his mouth apologetically .

“More than half of the guards have been defeated, if it stays like this and we are attacked in a similar way, we cannot protect her highness . Therefore, I would like to ask Touya and his friends to escort us . The pay will depend upon reaching the royal capital, can we ask for this request?”

“Escort.hmmm”

Akio said adding in to agree

” well, Touya can do whatever he wishes I’ll follow up”

” Me too”Elze agreed with Akio

” I also have no objections on this”Linze also agreed.

Yae was silent and just nodded that she had no objections.

.

Now Akio is currently in the wagon without Touya.

The girls surrounded him and asked

” Akio , You can use magic and that to null magic to top it over storage magic” Elze was very close to Akio’s by now

Linze was a bit reserved

“Akio-san, How many types magic can you use , element wise.” Linze asked

” Akio Sama, you never told me that you knew how to use magic.”Yae was a teary eyes now

‘ I should limit my secrecy so I’ll tell them what they need to know and add in a bit of surprise.’

” Well, Storage magic is one and there’s another too Gate and there’s teleportation too then Gravity as I can see is that most of my null magic are from space related.”

“ahh.!?”

Elze, Linze and Yae were Shocked

“Well I know that having more than one Null magic is uncommon but you shouldn’t be so shocked anymore you still have Touya in the team who is more of a monster than a genius in magic.”

“That true” Elze,Linze and Yae nodded at Akio words

” As for the elements I can use are Light Magic, Wind Magic and Water magic.”Akio said also emphasizing that he was no different than a normal person who has talents for magic expect for the Null magic that has a package of Space related Spells.

” Akio Sama, Why did you never told me that you knew how to use magic!?”

Akio was in a tough situation he had to spout some nonsense now.

” Yae, you know how we Samurai only follow the way of the swords and magic is not on our system of usage. So I never felt the need to use magic and thought to keep it a secret from everyone and only used it in emergency situations but….”

Elze joined in asking before he could finish

” So Today was an emergency that you had to use magic ?”

Akio was speechless

” Elze It not that it was an emergency but I did not have my swords in my hand so I had to take it out of the storage. Whereas on battle I did not use even a bit of magic and you can rest assured.”

” Yes I saw that you were only using the sword to fight. The fight was in a way beautiful” Linze commented

” Akio Sama where did you learn that sword style from when we practiced before you were copying my style but now when I see this is not that style.”

” Yae, The sword style was self created by me”

Yae was shocked as to how Akio had created a new style where the sword style has been passed through generations to generations improve as time passed but Akio was only 15 .Yae stayed silent

” Wow you’re Amazing ,Akio you even created your own sword style. That’s Impressive”

Elze was Impressed by Akio

Linze also nodded.

Linze now asked

” So we’ve been seeing a lot by now and wanted to asked that what is your relationship with Yae.!?”

Yae came out of her stupor and suddenly announced in a straight face.

” We are engaged and going to marry soon”

Akio was smiling looking at Yae

‘ So cute’

” Yes, we’re Engaged and she is going to be my soon to be wife.”

“Eh…!?”

Elze and Linze were so Shocked that an egg could fit their mouth easily.
