A week passed after Helvi revealed to the three women that she was a devil, and there were not any noticeable changes in their behavior. At most, they showed some resignation when Helvi displayed her monstrous strength.
During this week, Theo continued to be trained by Xena and Celia. He slowly learned how to fight, and finally managed to manifest magic.
It was hard to see progress in his physical training, since progress was very slow, but he was very happy when he saw the magic he cast appear before his eyes.
“I-I did it! I did! Yes!!”
It was a the easiest spell, a ball of light.
It was very small, about the size of a pebble, but Theo’s eyes lit up when it appeared in his hands.
Theo’s happiness also spread to the one’s watching.
It was a very small display of magic skill-wise, but it was a big sign of growth for Theo, since up until that point he was completely unable to use magic.
“I didn’t think you’d come this far in a week. Maybe you have more talent for magic than I thought.”
“R-really!? Thank you!”
“By the way, how long did it take you to learn this spell, Celia?”
“Eh? Me? I don’t really remember but… About five minutes? Ah…”
“F-five… It took me a week…”
“N-no Theo, that’s not…”
“Ahh… You made Theo sad Celia…”
“D-did you ask that on purpose Xena!?”
Obviously, comparing Theo to a rare talent like Celia was not fair to him.
“Do not fret Theo. Everyone grows at their own pace. Just do your best and go at your own pace.”
“Helvi…!”
Helvi pat a sad looking Theo on the head as she continued to speak.
“In case you are wondering, since the moment I was born, I was able to easily command magic powerful enough to lay waste to this world.”
“…That makes me jealous, but what can I do?”
“You will get there one day, although it will take thousands of years.”
“That’s way too much power!”
Xena and Celia, who were listening, then said quietly.
“Are they going to keep doing it for thousands of years?”
“I was going to say that even Theo would feel numb at some point, but I don’t think that would be right. Still, I’d love to have that power.”
“Magic really is powerful. The most my fists will do is smash a giant boulder.”
For most, smashing a giant boulder with one’s fists would be impressive enough, but no one was there to interject with this.
(I could smash this planet with my fists.)
“I feel like I heard something nasty in my mind.”
“Amazing Helvi. I really do want that kind of power too.”
When it was time to have lunch, all four ate Theo’s cooking again.
“You two are going on your honeymoon tomorrow right?”
Said Xena as she chewed.
“Y-yes, to the capital.”
Hearing “honeymoon” made Theo a little embarrassed as he responded.
“How long are you going to stay there?”
“We have not decided, but since money is no issue, we can stay for one or two months. We can also go somewhere else if we grow tired of the capital.”
“Yes. There are great places to visit and sights to see, but that will probably take a few days.”
“Then we will either go to another town or return here. It will be fine if we go wherever we please and have fun.”
The important factor was not the destination, but that they were together.
They would go together, and if the place itself was fun, all the better.
“That’s nice… We want to go to the capital too, but we’ve already accepted a few quests here.”
“We’re going to be completing quests here for at least a week.”
“Going together would be out of the question, but it will be fine if we happen to meet there. We can wait a week for for you.”
“Yes! And you can show us around the capital too!”
“Yes, if we do meet, you can leave that to us. We’ll tell you our favorite places!”
They told them about most sights in the capital, but not about their favorite taverns and restaurants.
Drinking together there also sounded enjoyable.
“Ah, by the way, we talked about you to a noble that hires us.”
“Eh? Really?”
“Yes, so you don’t mess anything up Helvi.”
“Why me? I have no intention of doing anything if no one bothers us.”
“Someone probably will, that’s why I’m saying this. You do stand out a lot.”
Her appearance was too good, and she had a lot of exposed skin.
Someone who draws everyone’s attention just by walking through the street was bound to stand out a lot.
Her expressionless face made her look scary, but when she walked with Theo, it would unconsciously turn into a smile.
Her beauty combined with a magnificent smile made it very probable that men would try to get involved with her, even if a man stood next to her.
Even with Theo right beside her, someone that did not know them would surely assume he was her little brother, not her husband.
“…If I was taller and the type of man that could stand by your side…”
Theo figured people might try to mess with Helvi, and looked down with sadness.
But before he could continue, Helvi placed her index finger on his mouth.
“There is only one man in this world that can stand by my side, and it is none other than you Theo. The strongest man in the world should not belitle himself like this.”
“H-Helvi…”
“What mouth is making a fool out of the man I love? How should I close it…”
“Helvi moved her finger away from Theo’s mouth,and lifted his head by the chin.
With an enchanting smile on her face, she moved closer to close his mouth…
“Yes yes! That’s enough you two!”
“Let’s eat already.”
As they saw the other two go into their own little world, Xena and Celia yeleld to stop it, sounding very much like they were used to doing it.
“…Oh well, we can continue later.”
“Yes…”
Theo sounded a little disappointed as Helvi moved her face away, but soon realized Xena and Celia were watching, and his face turned red.
Xena and Celia thought even his disappointed voice was cute.
Helvi kept Theo in suspense by saying they would continue later, but how cute would he be then?
Xena and Celia enjoyed imagining it, and Helvi looked forward to seeing it.
