Chapter 61 Naming
After the meeting at the castle, we had a leisurely time in one of the inns that King Trage had prepared. I was reading, and Sara was lying on the futon drinking fruit juice. Gerard is polishing his beloved sword. By the way, the heroes are in a separate room. And Efil, who has a small Clotho on her shoulder, started making evening meals by borrowing the kitchen.
"Come to think of it, don"t Sara and Gerard have any family names?"
"What a sudden?"
“”When I met King Trage, I was introduced to the family name Fujiwara, and I thought…………. in this world is a family name only attached to the aristocrats and royalty? Sara is the daughter of the Demon King, so to speak, the royal family of the demons. Even Gerard is a knight. Why just one name?"
The status of the two was confirmed at the time of the contract. Neither had a family name.
"Oh, is that thing!"
“Hmm, how should I explain? … My Liege, do you know the skill of naming”?
"Roughly, I just took a quick glance at the skill screen. Could that skill give you a family name?"
As the name suggests, the naming skill is a skill that grants a name. At first, you can change the name of the item that you own up to the same cla.s.s as the skill, and if you have the skill level, you can change other people"s items. If you go further up, you can change even magic names and personal names. However, the changed name is displayed in blue on the status screen. If you look, the original name will be displayed, so it"s a skill that isn"t often used.
"Yeah. There is always a senior official with a high-level "naming" skill in the ceremony to welcome a new n.o.bleman. I am not sure, but he must have a skill of cla.s.s A or higher. ”
“A grade? Even if you develop your naming skill alone, it"s pretty hard if you don"t have the talent and growth value of skill points.”
"That"s why the high-ranking house that inherits the naming skill is desperate to raise it up to Cla.s.s A. Raising an heir is like a job."
"The devil is a little more careless. It"s odd to learn non-combat skills a raise them to cla.s.s A. Still, all the demons are full of ambition to become n.o.bles, and there is a lot of conflict between races over their rare naming skills. So, the rule is simple, the person who got a family name with the naming skill is a n.o.bleman!
“That"s why there is only one demon king among that many demons. If you force ma.s.s production, you won"t be able to stop.”
Are the demons a battle race or something?
"Yes? I thought it was Kelvin "s favorite play. Well, this knowledge I got on the desk and it may be different from the actual one."
"By the way, if you do it in the human world, it"s completely different. The family name is given only at a ceremony held in each country twice a year. The name of the person who has been awarded the family name is strictly controlled in the country, so you can"t give yourself a n.o.bility. ”
Uh, hmm? Speaking of which, I didn"t get the family name of that Trisen"s pig prince who flighted with me in Pa.r.s.e. Ah?
"Does a new baby born from an aristocratic house have a family name since then?"
"No, it is necessary to give the family name again. Depending on the family, they are usually given at the ceremony of the year when they leave their parents and become independent."
Pig, didn"t you stand alone? Well, it might be different if it is a prince.
"I see. Well, I understand the rules for the time being. Let"s go back to the original story, but aren"t Sara and Gerard n.o.bles?"
“I wonder if it was a royal rather than an aristocrat. Because my father was the demon king … When I escaped, I was fainted by my father, so I don"t know why my family name disappeared.”
“… Maybe the demon who gave you the name revoked the family name. If you had it, you will stand out. If you have the permission of the person you named and their relatives, that"s possible.”
When the Demon King Gustav sealed Sara, he protected her from the hands of other demons with a chain of seals and faked her appearance by holding a magic hairpin. No wonder they ordered the family name to be erased.
“Oh, sure. As for the Wicked, the only thing the n.o.bleman can stand alone is a duck."
“I"ll blow it the other way around, so I"ll be fine.”
No, that"s not it.
"My Liege, I was originally a peasant but became a n.o.bleman by the courtesy of King Alkar when I became the head of the Knights. But I was reborn as a black spirit knight. It may have disappeared because I was transformed into a monster. ”
“Is it possible that factors that are different from the cancellation will disappear?”
"Well, now I "m just Sara. This reliable shield is just Gérard. And that is good."
Sara falls face down on the futon, and she smiles as she flicks her legs. It is a secret that I fell in love a little even if I am not so awake.
――― Concon.
You can hear a modest knocking on the door. Efil.
"Master, the meal is ready. The recipe for rice cooking and j.a.panese food has been thoroughly transmitted from the head chef of the Castle that the king sent us."
“That"s huge, Efil! Because I can"t cook it. It"s the same as having secured a white rice life in Perth!”
"You are the MVP." I lifted up Efil"s pet.i.te body and swung around the room. No, even I who is powerless in the party can do this much. I have more strength than adventurers who care about it!
“Wow, I"m sorry. Master, my eyes are turning!”
“It"s good, isn"t it? It"s all right!"
"But it"s embarra.s.sing!"
We keep going around.
“Oh, I saw Efil"s figure after a long time.”
“What is that? Hmm, it"s certainly different from the usual cool feeling."
"Because you became concerned about the appearance after becoming a maid, this is cute."
“Oh, uh … Master, stop, stop! House!”
“Am I a dog?”
Efil"s lovely cry continued for a while.

“This voice … Kelvin, what are you doing?”
By the way, the room division of the Heroes" group was a single room only to Touya due to Setsuna"s strong request.
