Tiamat, I'm going to find a girlfriend!

It wasn't that Melyuchina had particularly discerning taste, but rather that the shield that Bavanshi had brought out did indeed look rather ordinary.

Feel……

There's nothing particularly special about it, nor can it be considered outstanding.

"Is it not good?"

Bawanshi countered with a question.

"Simplicity is the best policy. Are overly flashy weapons necessarily good things?"

"Or--"

Bavanshi didn't continue speaking, but her gaze was already fixed on the sword at Meliuchina's waist.

There should have been two Aroundights, but one was lost in the last battle, leaving only the weapon in Melyuchina's hand.

The implication is, "If you think that only flashy weapons are good, then why did your own weapon break down?"

of course.

Bavanshi himself certainly didn't say it; it was something that Melyuchina figured out on her own.

"But is this kind of weapon really suitable for Mash?"

Mei Liuqina pursed her lips.

"I don't think she'll use this well."

"Whether it's possible or not is not up to you."

"You have to let her give it a try, right?" Bavanshi said as she walked over to Mashu and asked with a smile.

"Mash, would you like to give it a try?"

"Eh--"

A glimmer of hope appeared in the little girl's eyes, and she quickly nodded.

"I want to give it a try!"

"Ok?"

"How are you?" Having received Mashu's approval, Bavanshi turned back to ask Melyuchina's opinion, "Is it alright?"

"..."

Having said all that, Meiliuqina knew she had no choice but to agree.

"Okay, let's give it a try."

Having said that——

Although Mashu had 120% hope for the shield that Bavanshi brought, her lack of physical strength was still something she couldn't ignore.

"Good weight……"

Holding the shield that Bavanshi brought, Mashu bit her lip, clearly putting a lot of effort into it.

Even so, she still couldn't pick it up properly.

"Why is it so heavy?"

"This……"

Faced with her daughter Mashu's question, Melyuchina didn't have a good answer for a moment. She just looked at Bavanshi beside her, her eyes full of questions.

The latter smiled and then answered:

"Because this is what rivals the Knight."

"Eh, something that's comparable to a knight?" Mash's eyes lit up. "If I could pick it up, I could become a true knight?"

"That's right~"

Bavanshi gently stroked Mashu's head, expressing her approval in this way.

"That's it."

“You may not be able to lift it now, but if you want to become a true knight, you must be able to do it.”

"..."

"Isn't this a bit too strict?"

Looking at the silent Mashu in front of her, Melyuchina couldn't help but ask.

"She's just a child."

"Can't children become knights too?"

"Meliuchina, you must believe Mashu."

"this--"

Melyuchina glanced back at Mashu, and finally nodded.

However, it soon became clear that Melyuchina's worries were somewhat unnecessary.

Because Mashu, after being modified by Morgan, could no longer be measured by ordinary standards.

In just a few short days, her physical strength has become vastly different from before.

The shield, which was originally difficult for her to lift, was gradually "moved" after that.

Mashu was naturally quite happy with the results she had achieved.

"look!"

Mash picked up the shield and said with a happy expression, seemingly genuinely delighted by the occasion.

"Am I amazing!"

"..."

Although Ian didn't quite know how to praise Mashu, he knew how to make her understand that her efforts were recognized.

He picked Mashu up in one scoop and then, as if to "show off," spun her around in circles.

The whooshing sound was so loud that it made one wonder if he might throw Mashu away like some random object at any moment.

but--

This did not happen.

Although her movements seemed exaggerated, Mash never left Ian's embrace.

"..."

At first, Meiliuqina was a little worried, but after seeing this scene, she gradually felt relieved.

call--

Isn't the reason I had this child precisely because I wanted to see this kind of situation?

"Aren't you happy?"

Bawanshi suddenly appeared next to Meiliuqina, startling her.

"Don't appear so suddenly, it's really scary."

"Only those who have a guilty conscience will be scared."

Bawanshi smiled.

"If you're scared by me, it means you must have something on your mind."

"As for what it is... I have no idea."

"..."

"You're such a nuisance."

Meiliuqina gave Bawanshi a disgruntled look.

"You're always messing around with so many things."

"If you had put even a little bit of your mind into something else, things wouldn't be like this now, would they?"

"Your words are very similar to my mother's."

Bawanshi stood with her hands behind her back and smiled slightly.

"But no matter what, at least on the Mashu issue, I was right, wasn't I?"

"..."

Although she wanted to find some reasons to refute Bavanshi's words, Melyuchina quickly realized that it was unnecessary.

Because the moment she saw Ian and Mashu playing, as Mashu's mother, she knew that she had deeply accepted this.

"Ok."

"This time, you're right."

“Mash is indeed not very suitable for swords, but rather a knight who is better suited to shields.”

"I acknowledge your judgment."

"..."

A smug smile appeared on Bavanshi's face.

It was clear that she was quite satisfied with Meliuchina's gesture of appeasement.

"It's good to know."

"My judgment is just as accurate as my mother's."

"However, this should only be the beginning—"

"A beginning?"

Meiliuqina hesitated for a moment before continuing.

"You mean there's something else to do?"

"Isn't that a matter of course?"

Bawanshi smiled slightly.

“This is Camelot’s first child who has truly inherited the ‘dragon’ bloodline.”

"Do you think Artoria wouldn't prepare a gift?"

"Wha, what?"

158. Melyuchina: I want to be a good mother!

"Mom, have a bite too!"

Inside the tavern, Ma Xiu happily ate the food in front of him.

Beside her was the shield that Bavanshi had prepared.

After this period of wear and tear, it has been marked with many signs, making it look somewhat worn.

However, Mashu herself didn't seem to mind much.

For her, this seemed to be the "trial" her father, Ian, had mentioned.

"you eat."

Melyuchina smiled slightly, and then pushed the food that Mashu had pushed in front of her back to her.

"Mom isn't hungry."

"Even if you're not hungry, you have to eat something!"

"Otherwise, Dad will be very unhappy!"

As Mashu spoke, she looked intently at her mother, Melyuchina.

"Dad, you made me supervise you every day."

"..."
