The Only Daughter of Japan’s Greatest Blacksmith, Blacksmithing in VRMMO

「… So, who is she?」
「That girl’s name is Alice」
「That’s what I just heard. What I’m asking is who she is!」
「… D- Don’t be so angry…」
「Not at all?? I’m not mad at you??」

I managed to quiet down Suzu, who was angry for some reason, and explained.

「If Aya saw us in the same room, in the same bed, getting along, what would she think?」
「………. I’ll think your… close… ?」
「…… Haaaaaaaaaa……….」

Suzu sighing really loudly… I’ve never seen such a big sigh before.

「Aya does NOT understand at all!」
「…… Really?」
「Really!」
「… ?」

I’m not sure, but if Suzu says so, then I guess so.

「By the way, can I ask why?」
「Eh!? … No, it’s… I’m not sure what to say…」
「Hmm?」
「In short, what you’re trying to say, Suzuka-san, is that you think that they were doing something naughty?」
「Ehh… Eh?」
「U… I- I didn’t───I mean, whose voice was that?」
「Oh, by the way, I never introduced you to that voice, the cursed doll’s voice… Here it is」
「Hello~」
「…」

I grabbed it with both hands and showed it to Suzu, and the doll waved its small hands at her.

「… I, not, afraid」
「… I’m sorry, you’re speaking in broken English, are you okay?」
「Un. OK」
「… Can’t talk?」
「Exactly!」

The doll laughs at Suzu’s condition. It’s hard to call her “doll”…

「Hey, hey」
「Un? What?」
「What do you want me to call you?」
「… That’s right. I’ll let Ayane decide!」
「Ha! You can’t let Aya decide!」
「Suzu?」
「Ah… no. I mean…」

Suddenly, she came to her senses and insisted that I shouldn’t be allowed to choose a name. She insisted.

「Why can’t I decide… ?」
「U… T- The naming sense…」
「I- I know what I’m doing… !」

Everyone makes fun of my naming sense… The most notable one is when I try to name a sword… Even the description denies it… Uu…

「W- Was it such a shock?」
「… No problem. I’m fine. Suzu will decide then?」
「Okay, fine… But first, just tell me why that doll can talk… ?」
「Un, I got it」

──

After a few moments of explanation, Suzu gave it a name.

「… I know it’s cheesy, but what about Iris?」
「Iris? Oh, it’s because it possessed Alice…」
「Iris…」
「So, what do you think?」
「It’s good! My name is Iris!」
「Waa, congratulations!」

… And now that the doll’s name has been decided as Iris, the conversation has returned.

「So, is Suzuka-san jealous when she suspects you’ve done something naughty?」
「Ba!! Why did you say that!!」
「Wau……」

My face turns red. I thought it was either a mistake or a bad joke earlier, but it seems it was the truth… Eh, eh… I… I’ve never done that before…

「Ah, Ayane, your face is red!」
「! Aya looks so cute when she’s embarrassed… !」
「…」

I was too busy trying to keep myself calm to argue with her.

「… When I was jealous… It’s true, though… ?」
「…… I see」
「…… Un」
「… Speaking of which, is there anything Iris can do for me?」
「… That’s what I thought. Are you just going to follow her?」
「No? I can do a lot of things. Like, uh… Weapons! I can wield weapons!」
「Eh? Weapons?」
「Unh! Can I borrow your weapon?」
「… Okay」

I took out Reizan-maru, which I had temporarily stored in my inventory, and handed it to it. I have not yet put my trust in it, so I also set the Black Wolf King’s Magic Sword on my hip and get ready for battle.

「Hmm~? That’s a strange looking weapon, isn’t it?」
「Un. West… A normal sword can slash and stab, but this sword is mainly for slashing.」
「Fumu? I don’t really get it… Then, here we go」
「「… Un」」

We watch with bated breath. I’m worried that it might slash Suzu with the sword it has.

Then Iris stood in front of the sword.
