Ch. 4: Just One Bracelet (SUN)

 

Lied and I had left the café and were walking around the town when…-

 

OO: "Ah…"

 

There was a display of beautiful accessories in one of the street stalls.

 

OO: "Look at this. They're all so beautiful."

 

Lied: "…"

 

Lied looked at the rows of accessories and quietly called out to the shop keeper.

 

Lied: "Give me all of these."

 

OO: "What!?"

 

Lied stood up straight with his arms crossed, completely at ease without paying any mind to the surprised shop keeper.

 

Lied: "You looked like you wanted them."

 

That may be…but all of them…

 

Lied: "Take them to the castle afterwards."

 

OO: "L-Lied…th-then, this! Just this one!"

 

In a panic, I picked up a single bracelet inlaid with pale purple stones.

 

Lied: "…"

H-he looks unhappy…

 

Lied: "Fine. Then just give me this one."

 

The shop keeper's shoulders dropped a little, and they gave him the bracelet.

 

Lied: "Here you go."

 

OO: "Th-thanks."

 

The bracelet he gave to me sparkled and reflected the light of the sun.
