DanMachi: Starting with a Sword Soul Template

Liam, pretending not to see the expressions of the two young women, smiled and handed over the sandwich in his hand. "Want to try a bite of mine?"

Daphne almost choked on the juice in her hand.

Many girls liked to eat sweets, but Daphne didn't like things that were too sweet, and she also had to maintain her figure.

Cassandra gently took a bite of the sandwich that Liam had eaten, and then Liam gently wiped the cream from the corner of her mouth.

Too shameful!

Liam absolutely could not bring himself to put that cream into his own mouth.

What was the difference between that and bathing completely naked on the street?

...

The Goddess Festival arrived. Liam changed into a set of casual clothes and waited at the dating spot.

To pay tribute to a certain old friend, he even styled his hair in a middle part.

A black shirt, a gray bib-and-brace overall with white straps, and black leather shoes.

An authentic "ikun" style outfit, eternally classic and full of charm.

His looks were quite resilient, and combined with the middle-part hairstyle, he had a stunning charm that was unforgettable at first glance.

Before long, Syr, also dressed in carefully chosen clothes, arrived at the dating spot.

Syr's appearance and figure were excellent. Even though she was dressed relatively conservatively, she was still very cute.

Besides revealing outfits, conservative clothing could still showcase a young woman's beauty.

At this time, Syr was wearing a cream-colored base top and a pink jacket whose hem only reached her navel.

It was unknown if it was because the scale of her "peaks" was relatively large, or if it was just designed that way, but her unzipped jacket made the young woman's curves look even better.

For her lower body, she wore a cream-colored over-the-knee long skirt, with only her fair calves below the knees exposed.

Cute, pure, sweet—this was the feeling Syr gave people now.

While Liam was sizing up Syr, Syr was also sizing up Liam.

A middle-part hairstyle, a gray overcoat, overalls...

This combination made Syr laugh involuntarily, "Liam, you look really handsome today."

"Mmm, I've wanted to try this style for a long time. You're the first person I've worn it out on a date with."

"Me, the first?"

The smile on Syr's face became even brighter.

"Miss Syr is even cuter today."

Hearing Liam's heartfelt praise, Syr seemed very happy, a shy smile on her face.

And while Liam and Syr were on their date, the members of the Hestia Familia, including Goddess Hestia herself, were all helping out at The Hostess of Fertility restaurant.

Because of the Goddess Festival, the restaurant was already very busy.

In addition, due to Syr's request, the original waitstaff in the restaurant were doing their best to keep Hestia busy.

"Damn it, is this workload trying to kill me?"

Hestia did not reject work. In fact, she quite liked the act of exchanging labor for remuneration.

"I didn't expect that the reason for asking the waitstaff for help before would be repaid now."

Previously, when Liam was creating duel cards and forging weapons, these waitstaff members had all helped.

For example, by introducing material channels, product promotion, and even cargo transportation, and so on.

Hestia had originally planned to go and see what kind of sacred being this Syr was, but with the current workload, it was really too difficult to leave.

"Hey, this level of workload is really killing me."

Because she was always in a busy state, Hestia's little brain hadn't even considered spending money to hire people as waiters.

Ryuu had also put on her staff work clothes after a long time. In this restaurant where she had stayed for several years, even though she hadn't done it for a while, she was still skillful.

After communicating with Syr, although she also liked Liam, in order to repay Syr for saving her life, she had to stay here to hold Hestia back.

Not only that, but the other waitstaff were also continuing to increase Hestia's workload.

As long as she was kept busy, Hestia, whose little brain was not very smart to begin with, would have even less ability to think.

Cold sweat broke out on Ryuu's forehead. Hestia had also been very good to her. Now that Hestia was so busy, her conscience was a little uneasy.

...

During the date, Liam very naturally took the young woman's hand, and the two strolled on the streets of Orario.

"Wow, it's Sword Saint Liam! Please be sure to try our delicious bread.

Paired with our exclusive jam, this is the best on the whole street!"

"How much?" Looking at the owner's expression, Liam immediately took out his wallet to prepare for payment.

His nose was very sensitive. At least the bread here, he had just seen a batch of freshly baked bread.

The smell was very fragrant, and the hygiene was also very well done. So it was perfectly fine to try.

The air quality here was very good, with almost no airborne dust. After these loaves of bread were out of the oven, they were also wrapped in leaves similar to lotus leaves.

"No charge. As long as you can occasionally come here to buy something to eat, our business will be several times better!"

Liam smiled. This owner was really interesting.

It should be said that the owners who could open a shop here, at least the shops with good business, had at least one of the two: product quality or purchasing experience.

"I still have to pay. If it's delicious, I'll order from you often in the future."

"That would be great! Sword Saint Liam, you and your little girlfriend, please eat with peace of mind..."

Hearing this, Syr subconsciously let out a "woo~" sound.

Her shy, girlish posture was really beautiful.

Buying bread, dipping it in the jam recommended by the owner, the taste was indeed not bad.

Liam had already adapted to the taste of the food here. He could only say that some of Orario's delicacies truly lived up to their reputation.

"Liam, here~"

Syr tore off a small piece of bread, then dipped a little jam and handed it in front of Liam.

Not simple. Syr can always grasp the initiative at just the right moment.

Then, now is the time to take the initiative.

Liam directly reached out and held her hand that was pinching the bread, and put the small piece of bread into his mouth.

Because of the intimate contact, and the young woman's slender hands.

His fingers slightly touched the inside of the young woman's wrist. Because of his excellent senses, just through indirect contact, he could tell that her heart rate was very fast.

Without a doubt, the Syr before him, at least when she was on a date with him, her heart was beating very fast.

At the very least, she was very happy and excited now.

"Is it delicious?"

"Very delicious."

Syr closed her eyes and gently chewed the small piece of bread with jam.

A very simple food, paired with the merchant's exclusive jam, and on top of that, it was fed to her by Liam.

So this taste made Syr feel very delicious.

The young woman's cheeks were flushed, and even her speaking voice was trembling.

The crowd of onlookers was large. Even the surrounding vendors were involuntarily peeking at Liam.

The various deeds of Liam had long since spread from among the adventurers to all of Orario, and had even begun to spread outside of Orario.

"Shall we go?"

Very naturally, Liam took Syr and continued to stroll down the street.

In the process of Liam taking Syr on a date, his actions were being secretly watched by many people.

People are gossips, especially since some of these secret observers were Syr's acquaintances.

Apart from the gossiping passersby on the street, there were also various adventurers.

For example, the waitstaff at The Hostess of Fertility restaurant.

After Syr had told them she liked Liam, these waitstaff naturally did their utmost to provide various assists. Although Ryuu was reluctant to give up her feelings for Liam, she still had to follow these waitstaff.

She had to both assist Syr, and in her heart, she was unwilling for Liam and Syr's date to proceed smoothly.

She felt she was really terrible. Such a version of her was really not frank, and also too selfish.

Cold sweat appeared on Lunor's face, "Has this Liam become even more formidable than before?

Before, he wouldn't care so much about the feelings of the opposite sex. Now he seems even more handsome."

Anya was a cat-person with short brown hair. She commented while eating:

"When walking in a crowd, he can also protect Syr at all times.

Where did he learn these skills?"

Women are generally more emotionally delicate and care a lot about various details.

They cared a lot about their feelings during the dating process.

And Liam, in the process of holding hands and strolling, could proactively clear a path through the crowd, so that Syr would not be bumped into.

He kept the pace of the dating pair at a reasonable frequency, and their chat could also flow smoothly and happily.

Coupled with being half a head taller than Syr, and having a perfect inverted triangle figure that looked slim in clothes but muscular without.

The waitstaff who were eavesdropping on the two's conversation were so excited they wanted to scream.

"Ryuu, did you see? Liam's mouth has become so sweet! He's so good at talking.

My heart is itching just from listening! How did he suddenly become enlightened?

It makes me want to try having a sweet romance with Liam too!"

Ryuu turned around abruptly. Chloe had a wicked smile on her face. "Wow, if it weren't for Syr being on a date with Liam, having gotten there first.

I would really want to have a romance with Liam too!"

Why can you all say you like Liam so easily? Why can't she do it?

Why is she so reserved? Cares so much about face?

Apart from the female waitstaff of The Hostess of Fertility and Ryuu, the adventurers of the Freya Familia were also monitoring from various corners at this time.

As everyone knew, Lady Syr herself had almost no combat power.

Her safety was naturally the top priority of the entire Familia.

And the members of the Freya Familia basically all regarded the safety of Lady Freya or Lady Syr as more important than their own lives.

Some of the Familia members, upon seeing Liam, their hearts were full of resentment and killing intent.

How could their noble Lady Syr be worthy of Liam?

However, compared to resenting Liam, they had to obey Lady Syr's command even more.

...

Liam sensed the numerous gazes from the surroundings. There were many spectators in the open and in the dark.

He directly chose to ignore them.

He took out a clean and tidy white handkerchief from his pocket and spread it on the public bench.

As a qualified gentleman, it was very necessary to always carry tissues or a handkerchief.

Normal women generally cared more about hygiene issues.

And on a public bench, it was very likely that there was floating dust, or fallen leaves, petals, and so on.

It was also very necessary to use a handkerchief to remove these.

This was like how both parties would clean their bodies and dress up carefully before a date.

Hygiene was also very important.

"While we're resting, I'll perform a dance for you."

"Eh? Liam, you can dance too? Then I'm really looking forward to it."

Liam nodded slightly, then thought of that old friend's classic dance.

"This is a dance I've practiced for two and a half days. I don't know if you'll like it."

Liam placed his gray overcoat on the public bench. In his hands, he condensed a sword-aura basketball.

Pure Selfless Sword Aura rotated at high speed in his hands, and was transformed into a zero-damage high-speed air mass.

The sword-aura basketball was held in his hand and dribbled between his legs. Then it rotated from his right arm to his shoulder and then to his left hand.

He turned around with the basketball, and then the basketball spun on the tip of his right index finger.

Inside the blue and white Selfless Sword Aura, a dragon-shaped sword aura began to condense. One by one, golden light particles began to condense into a small golden dragon.

Liam gently picked up the basketball and threw it towards the sky where the two were.

The inside and outside were rotating.

Then it exploded above the two's heads. The golden sword aura bloomed, turning into specks of golden "snowflakes" and "fireworks."

Syr was a little confused at first, then covered her mouth in surprise.

"Wow, that's really amazing!"

The corners of Liam's mouth lifted, and then he turned around. With his back to Syr, he began to perform an iron mountain-lean...

Happy, very happy.

Liam's dance was something Syr had never seen before. Just watching it once left a deep and unforgettable impression.

This was a dance that had never appeared in all of Orario.

By the time Liam finished dancing, Syr was laughing so hard her tears came out.

"Liam, your dance is too funny. Does this dance have a name?"

"It does. The name is 'Just Because You're Too Beautiful'."

"Is this a confession?"

"What do you think?"

In Liam's view, the happiest time on a date was the ambiguous stage before the two became lovers.

That feeling where both were looking forward to what comes next, wanting the relationship to heat up yet fearing loss, wanting to confess yet worrying about rejection.

Maintaining this ambiguity, the emotions of both parties would fluctuate violently due to various things.

"I don't know either."

Syr stuck out her tongue and showed a cute smile.

After a short rest, the two got up again to walk.

A wooden carriage passed in front of the two. Seeing Liam turn to look at Syr.

"Syr, please come this way."

He let Syr walk on the inner side of the street, while he walked on the outer side closer to the carriage.

On the streets of Orario, the speed of a horse-drawn carriage was generally equivalent to an adult's jog.

The speed of a full gallop was generally about ten meters per second.

Of course, because they were wooden wheels, without rune engraving for shock absorption.

For comfort, they were generally not too fast in the city.

Beams of celebratory cannons suddenly appeared in the sky, and then a pile of pink paper flowers exploded in the air.

Like cherry blossoms blooming in the sky, the pink paper flowers fell from the sky.

"Syr, did you know? The speed at which cherry blossoms fall is seven centimeters per second.

Then what is the speed at which two people's hearts are moved?"

Liam walked in front of Syr and gently picked off a paper flower from the young woman's hair.

Then he spread his hands and slightly closed his eyes.

A blue Selfless Sword Aura was released from his entire body. One after another, the falling pink paper flowers began to dance with the wind...
