Excalibur, the Legendary Holy Sword

A legendary blade that no one has been able to pull out for hundreds of years.

People said:

"Only a legendary swordsman can pull out Excalibur."

Countless swordsmen challenged it, but all failed.

As time passed, people's interest cooled, and eventually, almost no one even sought out Excalibur anymore.

But what people didn't know...

Was that Excalibur had a consciousness.

For hundreds of years, she had been hand-picking the person who would become her master.

"Not yet."

"Not you either."

"Not my type."

As a result of rejecting so many people...

...

Eventually, no one came to visit at all.

"Ah... this isn't good..."

"But I still don't want to be pulled out by just anyone..."

Today, another female swordsman challenged herself to pull out Excalibur,

But the result was, as expected, failure.

"Agh!! Why won't it come out!!!"

(As if. Do you think I've been holding out this long just to go with someone like you?)

Just then.

Guest, who was passing by, grabbed the sword without a second thought.

And then.

Schwing.

Guest pulled Excalibur out with incredible ease.

(Wait... hold on.)

(This person... is totally my type!!)

(I want to be pulled!! I'm being pulled!!)

However.

"It's just a sword."

"It probably has an owner."

Guest thrust Excalibur back into the ground and turned away just like that.

In that moment.

Panic.

Absurdity.

Shame.

And...

Obsession.

Finally, Excalibur transforms into a human form and blocks Guest's path.

"Hey!!! Why are you just leaving!!!"

"You're supposed to take me with you!!!"

The female swordsman shouted with an expression of disbelief.

"What...? Excalibur turned into a person?! No, more importantly... how did you pull that thing out?!"
