Usually, I avoid exposing my private life, but Tacchia was an exception.
After all, she had given me an Ego Weapon made of mithril, a thing of astronomical value, for free.
I had no qualms about detailing my activities, as I couldn't refuse if asked to return the weapon or even offer up an organ in its place.
"...Didn't you bring your weapon?"
As I shared my recent happenings while she smoked, she casually threw out the question.
I stopped talking right away and prepared to answer her query.
"The weapon, you mean?"
"Yeah, ego weapons usually have a strong attachment to their owners. You've felt that too, haven't you?"
"Um, I'm not sure. I haven't really felt that..."
Although I heard such things when I first received the Ego Weapon, I've never felt any threat or hostility while using it.
Instead, it vibrated pleasantly when maintained, and had protected me from danger, even acting on its own before I was aware of it.
"...No signs of attachment? Don't tell me you left it neglected at home?"
"No, no, I haven't neglected it. It's just that things have turned out this way..."
It seemed better to show rather than explain.
With that decision, I swung my hand through the air, and the weapon emerged from the distorted space along the trajectory and landed in my hand.
Vrrrm.
The shaft vibrated pleasantly as soon as it was in my hand.
The blade, reflecting the sunlight, appeared well-preserved, just like usual.
"...A pocket dimension?"
"Yes. About two months after receiving this from you, Tacchia, I've been able to develop it. It's more like putting it inside my body rather than expanding a space..."
Was it like a space within my body where this weapon could be stored?
Thanks to this feature, I could summon the weapon at any time without carrying it around, allowing me to have at least some combat ability even when unarmed.
"...Even after autonomously awakening the pocket dimension feature and carrying it around, you've had no issues?"
However, what Tacchia was really concerned about wasn't the weapon's growth but my safety.
It seemed like things weren't going as she expected, as she frowned and rested her chin in her hand.
"Uh, Tacchia...?"
"Any other peculiarities?"
"What? Oh, yes. I'll explain right away."
Though it was a bit concerning, she was the expert on this weapon, not me.
Deciding to cooperate for my sake, I went on to explain various things related to the spear.
"Before, it would only return to where I was, but now it can move autonomously as long as it's not too far from me. Also, perhaps due to this weapon's influence, my self-taught spear skills have improved faster... Oh, and with this weapon and the help of a mana core, I can even form circles."
"So, you, who couldn't handle mana until recently, can now use circles?"
"Yes, although I can't do it alone."
