Chapter 28 - 027 Hope to Part on Good Terms in the End

Chapter 28: 027 Hope to Part on Good Terms in the End This was not Shane lying. In fact, using the Holy Sword in front of others really wasn't a good idea. If others were to find out about the existence of the Holy Sword, Shane couldn't even begin to imagine what would happen then. According to Nien, the Holy Sword was a weapon exclusive to Heroes, and once it was exposed, Shane's identity would be completely revealed. Naturally, Shane didn't want to expose any of this. Given this, not only the Holy Sword but even the existence of his Unique Skill and Special Skill, as well as his full set of Level 10 skills, Shane had to keep them hidden for the sake of his peaceful future life. In this case, saying the Holy Sword was "not very useful" was probably fine, right? As for how others understood it, that was not Shane's problem. Vivian still found it a bit strange, yet she nodded anyway. "Then let's help you buy a weapon first," Vivian asked, "What about armor?" "There's no need for armor for now," Shane thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I'll prepare armor once I've saved enough money. For now, since you are all here, let's just leave it at that." Upon hearing this, Vivian wanted to say something, but in the end, she remained silent, as if she wanted to respect Shane's decision. Even though not preparing armor wasn't advisable, just like Shane said, with them around during these few commissions, they should be able to take care of him. Besides, if he really suffered losses due to not being equipped with armor, it would serve as a lesson. Vivian thought this over and chose not to interfere with Shane's decision. And since Vivian was like this, the others didn't have any objections either. Shane, Vivian, and the others then headed to the weapon shop together. There, Shane bought a very sharp Broad Blade Sword. The so-called very sharp was honestly within the scope of an ordinary weapon, and naturally could not compare with magic weapons infused with magical effects. Therefore, Shane only spent one gold coin to acquire this sword. Then, the group left the weapon shop, rented a carriage, and headed north out of Lamijion. Shane's first adventure as an adventurer began just like that. ... With the sound of the wheels clattering, a carriage drove steadily along a road north of Lamijion, heading north along this road.@@@@ The carriage was driven by Vivian. She sat in the driver's seat, steering the horse, and her gaze intermittently fell on the carriage behind her. Inside the carriage, a somewhat indescribable atmosphere was spreading. Holding casual and pleasant conversations with such beautiful girls? How on earth should he go about it? In novels, the protagonists who could accomplish this without a change in expression must all have some sort of cheat, right? (Really wished his cheat could cover that area too.) Shane sighed for the umpteenth time in his heart, pondered for a moment, then relaxed his shoulders. "Forget it." Shane muttered softly to himself. Yes, Shane clearly gave up just like that. Since they didn't seem interested in conversation and held such a strong sense of caution, Shane didn't want to make unnecessary efforts to complicate matters. In short, trying too hard to engage with an indifferent attitude was something Shane couldn't do. Thus, Shane merely said one sentence. "You all don't have to be overly cautious because of my presence. Anyway, it's just for a month. I'll try to minimize my presence and won't affect you. I hope we can eventually part on good terms." After saying this, Shane didn't speak further. Yet his words left the three girls momentarily stunned. "This..." Tielle, Lu Muya, and Merica looked at Shane in quite a surprise, seemingly not expecting him to say such a thing. Thus, the three exchanged glances before returning to silence. Inside the carriage, the air seemed to grow even more weighty. On the driver's seat, Vivian had been constantly watching the situation inside the carriage. Listening to Shane's words and feeling the heavy air, a tinge of helplessness appeared on her face. (It seemed that past events had quite a substantial impact on Tielle and the others, huh?) Thinking this, Vivian also felt quite surprised by Shane's words. (Unexpectedly, Shane was so straightforward in drawing boundaries.) Pondering this, Vivian found herself becoming somewhat interested in Shane. (Maybe he's different from those male adventurers we had before.) Vivian thought this while continuing to drive the carriage. The wheels continued to clatter. Meanwhile, to one side of the road, a huge boulder suddenly moved slightly.
