After changing, Kiana ultimately decided not to ask the question on her mind.
Although she was lazy about thinking most of the time, the situation now was different from back in Nagazora City.
After calming down a bit, she realized this was another world.
In an unfamiliar world, no one could guarantee their survival.
At this moment, Kiana's "Tuna" brain suddenly woke up, and her sharp intellect took over.
She felt that, in any case, this man in front of her didn't seem like a bad person.
As fellow unlucky souls thrown into another world, now wasn't the time to say something that would ruin the mood.
"By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet."
After changing, Kiana said to Aaron, who still had his back to her.
"Kiana Kaslana. That's my name."
"Aaron Voss. As for introductions, that should be enough."
Sensing her approach, Aaron said to Kiana with a blank expression.
"We just met, so I don't expect you to follow my orders. But I have to tell you, the situation in this world is a bit complicated. If you act recklessly, I can't guarantee your safety."
"Hmm... Is it that serious?"
Kiana said, slightly confused by Aaron's serious words.
"I think I heard the word 'Teigu' earlier. That's our mission target, right?"
"Is the danger you mentioned related to those things?"
"Teigu... Yeah, it's related. As for what they are, just think of them as powerful weapons with specific usage requirements—just like powerful equipment you get in a game."
"And there are 48 Teigu in total. Our mission is to collect 10. To be honest, the difficulty isn't low. After all, you know we can't just go up to those Teigu users and say, 'Hey, I need that, please give it to me.'"
"Yeah. If someone tried to randomly steal my stuff, I'd definitely not let them off easy."
Clenching her fists, Kiana immediately turned to Aaron.
"But we can't just stay in this room forever, right? If we just stay here, I don't think we'll ever complete that mission."
"I want to say we should be cautious, but you're right this time. Hiding in this room won't help us complete the mission."
Pulling open the curtains, Aaron glanced out the window and said without turning around.
"It just so happens to be early morning in this world. There's almost no one in the city streets right now. Going for a stroll shouldn't get us caught and interrogated by the guards... right?"
After finishing his uncertain statement, Aaron took two prepared metal bats from his storage space, activated [Knight of Owner], and turned both bats into D-rank Noble Phantasms.
Then, he immediately threw one bat back into his storage space and handed the other to Kiana.
"This world is dangerous. Take this for self-defense."
"You really are well-prepared. Thanks."
Glancing at Kiana, who was swinging the bat around, Aaron didn't say much.
Based on his observations, the architectural style outside looked similar to the 'Imperial Capital.' If he wasn't mistaken, he and Kiana were currently in the Imperial Capital.
While the Imperial Capital didn't have any demons or monsters, sometimes, certain *people* were far more terrifying.
It wouldn't hurt to be careful. He didn't want to go outside only to be ambushed and die a ridiculous death like a clown.
Right, I saw a theory online once.
[Knight of Owner] turns all 'weapons' into D-rank Noble Phantasms, and the definition of 'weapon' depends on the user's perception.
Never mind the ridiculous joke about Lancelot touching the ground upside down, let me try.
Touching his own clothes, Aaron immediately began to hypnotize himself.
This is a weapon, this is a weapon, this is a weapon, this is a weapon... Ah, it worked.
Good. A D-rank Noble Phantasm shirt is complete.
Then the pants, and the shoes.
Kiana, watching Aaron suddenly start touching his clothes, pants, and shoes, stopped swinging the bat and said cautiously, "Aaron, don't put too much pressure on yourself. If the sky falls... I'll help you hold it up."
"Oh, right. You reminded me."
After finishing the Noble Phantasm-ification of his shoes, Aaron looked at the girl in front of him and reached out to touch her shoulder.
"Wh-what are you doing!"
Slapping Aaron's right hand away, Kiana blushed and shouted at him in a low, angry voice.
"And I trusted you! I can't believe you finally showed your true colors!"
"You perv!"
