Failure!?

The next day, Romulus Castle.

Teachers of Romulus Academy had been gathered in the audience chamber.
Princess Charlotte and Minister Rudolf were present as well.

On the throne, King Zenon.
Standing before him was an old man with a fine beard.
He was the highest authority of Romulus Academy: Headmaster Neumann, a mage known as the Sage.

“Headmaster Neumann. Sorry for the unreasonable request.”

“Ho ho ho. Don’t concern yourself, King Zenon. It is no great matter.”

King Zenon and Headmaster Neumann spoke in a familiar air.
Their eyes, however, were not smiling at all.
A taut atmosphere flowed, as if they were probing each other.

“Father… your fake smile is far too poor…”

“As unfriendly as ever…” Continue reading →

I know it can’t be helped, but “wild child” might have actually been a pretty big shock. No, yeah. It’s fine. I take pride in my work. Probably. Surely.

“Then, if I may be so bold, I shall give you a simple explanation. It is also the reason I am here.”
“Haa… Please.”

And so Mireille gave me a light explanation of adventurers and the guild.
Adventurers are people registered with the guild, and the guild is an organization that brokers work for adventurers, apparently. At registration they take a hearing and check your aptitude, and you’re sorted into warrior or mage, or something.
Then they introduce work that matches that aptitude.

“Hmm hmm.”
“Of course you cannot take high-difficulty requests immediately. Adventurers have ranks, and work is assigned according to that rank.”
“Hoh hoh.”
“Are you listening?”
“Mm.”

It’s fine. I understand. It’s just that the viewers are a little noisy. Continue reading →

A Pleasant Supper

“Here, our proud seafood stew. Eat plenty!”

So saying, Elma brought a plate steaming hot.
It was supposed to be a single tasting portion, but it looked like quite a lot?
That question blew away the moment the plate was set in front of me.

“Whoa, it looks delicious!”

I could not help raising my voice.
A tidal scent, softly tickling the nose.
Perhaps it was scented with white wine and herbs; it gave off a very appetizing smell, without any fishiness.

And more than anything, the quantity and freshness of the ingredients!
As expected of a port town; they were probably using seafood just taken.
The mussels were plump to bursting, and the chunks of fish were springy.
The vegetables in with them were a little limp, perhaps from being stewed quite a while.
But that was the doneness I liked, so there was no problem.

Was this something like a bouillabaisse?
I was fairly sure I had seen that before tomatoes were brought in, it had been like this.
In any case.

“This is white wine… it will absolutely go.”
“Hoh? You know your stuff, Asha.” Continue reading →

Chapter 17: The Holster and a Trial

After going back to the capital, I eat dinner at the inn, take a bath, and return to my room early.
All sorts of things happened; I seem to have been a bit tired.
I apparently sank into the bed the moment I got to my room; the next morning, my hair is in an amazing state.

I spend a fair bit of time trying to fix it, and in the end I give up and put on a hat.

I also got up late, so by the time I show my face at the guild it’s almost noon.
Liza is at reception today too.
I start to greet her and she beckons me over, a little wave.

“Good morning. What’s the matter?”
“Ouka, what did you do yesterday?”

She asks with a troubled smile.
…Yesterday? What did I do.

“Uh. I bought a holster and went home to visit.”
“Hmm… I don’t really understand, but you have a visitor. That boy over there.”

I turn as told, and there’s a nervous, noble-looking boy.
…Who was that. I feel like I’ve seen him.

“O-ou. Thanks for yesterday.”
“…. Ah, the young guy who picked a fight yesterday.”

He’s dressed so fine I didn’t recognize him.
Clothes like that—is this guy a noble.

“…I think you’re the one who picked the fight.”
“So, what? What’s up?”
“No, um… yesterday was my bad. Sorry.”

He puts a hand to the back of his head and apologizes.
He looks vaguely sheepish.

“…Haa? What, you came all this way to apologize?”
“No, it isn’t that, exactly…”
“Then what.”
“Uh… um, well.”

…What. Half-baked.
Where did yesterday’s attitude go.

“I don’t really get it, but I accept the apology. If you don’t have other business, I have somewhere to be, so another time?”
“Ah, ou… later.”

Weird guy. Did he come all this way to apologize.
Scrupulous, unlike his looks. Or is it exactly like his looks?
…Whatever. Anyway, to Ellie’s shop.
It should be about the time we promised.

A Midnight Confession

Night.
The hour even vampires rub their eyes.

In King Zenon’s study in Romulus Castle, there were three figures.
King Zenon, Princess Charlotte, and Lady Ulrika.

“—I thought I would be killed… but Natasha fought the lesser dragon with everything she had…”

In the quiet study, only Princess Charlotte’s voice could be heard.
She was reporting the events of the field exam to King Zenon.

“But she was no match for the lesser dragon… after that, Ulrika and Olivia saved us.”

Princess Charlotte continued, voice tense.
King Zenon’s expression was severe.

“If Ulrika and Olivia hadn’t come, Natasha and I would have died… it was all because of my foolish actions, so… um…”

Princess Charlotte looked straight at King Zenon.
A serious gaze, full of resolve.

“Natasha, and everyone on the team, only went along with my selfishness. So please, if there is to be severe punishment, let it be me alone—”

“That’s enough. I understand…” Continue reading →

When I asked, the soldier nodded right away.

“Of course! Mages are treasures of the town, of the country, and of the world! There could be no one who would refuse you. You mentioned looking for someone; we will assist.”
“Ah, that’s all right.”
“I see…”

He kind of drooped. A little like a puppy… no, that’s not it. I don’t want a dog this big.

“Then please, Lady Witch. Allow us to escort you.”
“Eh. Ah, um… Shouldn’t I wait in line…?”
“Making a Lady Witch wait is unthinkable!”
“Haa…”

I mean, I don’t mind. Getting in without being made to wait is really nice.
But somehow. I can tell there’s some kind of purpose. More than special treatment, I think it’s so I don’t get tired of waiting and go somewhere else.

I mean, if it were just a guide, you wouldn’t need two soldiers. One of them isn’t saying anything and is just staring at me. A little scary.
The soldier who spoke to me leads, and I follow. The other soldier is behind me. Guard, or so I don’t get away, I wonder which.

‘This is it, Rita-chan’s going to get caught?’
‘Very well, then it’s war!’

“I’m not doing that.”
“Lady Witch?”
“It’s nothing.” Continue reading →

I had wrapped things in meaningful smoke, but the discussion of what to do from tomorrow on finished without a hitch.
The three of us went out together to Elma’s shop.

“They were kind to us at midday, and the sandwich was really good.”
“Not only the sandwiches. The other cooking is good there too.”
“Is… that so…? I’m looking forward to it.”

Kira answered Gerda’s and my words with a shy smile.
Damn, this girl is cute at every turn!
No, no, restrain, restrain.

To be honest, I was considerably carried away.
In today’s events alone I had had meetings good enough to think my life had taken a dramatic turn.
And the outlook from here on was by no means dark.

Well, they also say good fortune brings many demons, so I could not let my guard down.
But I wanted to be allowed this much, at least, while we ate tonight.

After all.

“Ah, leave the bill to me. I earn a fair amount, despite how I look.”
“No, ‘despite how you look’… Gerda, however you look at it you’re a high-ranking knight, like an aide to the Demon King, right?”

A generously openhanded, handsome-type, refreshing grown-up beauty, without a hint of spite.

“It’s been a while since I went to eat with someone like this…”
“It’s fine, Kira, eat plenty! You can even eat my share! Elma will put it on a tab!”

And a puppy-type pretty girl who stirred up the urge to protect, going to eat with us.
There was no way my spirits would not rise.
Whether Elma would actually put it on a tab, I did not know.
I wondered idly if they could send the bill around to the Demon King’s castle, and other useless things.
Well, I was not much of an eater.
Kira probably wasn’t either. …What about Gerda? Continue reading →

My first trip through the sky was comfortable.
A little cold, but the view is so good I don’t care.
The sky is close. When I drop my gaze, I can see the highway below.
I start to feel like I can see the whole world.

And it’s fast. Not even comparable to a coach.
Clouds and scenery stream by at an amazing speed.

Uwah! Amazing! This is so fun!

About thirty minutes out of the capital, I’m back in the town I grew up in.

“Faaast. This is amazing, super convenient.”
“—Suggestion: descending directly into town is dangerous.”
“Ah, okay. Shall I come down before the gate.”

True. I am flying by blasting mana.
I reverse-thrust a little, kill speed, and land slowly.
Man, that was so fun. All hail Ring.
My hair is a mess, though. I’ll tidy it a bit here before I go in.

“Charlotte~, we’re here~”

The day after the exam.
Lady Ulrika and Olivia had been summoned to Princess Charlotte’s private rooms.
Lady Ulrika opened the door and went in.

“Welcome. We’ve been waiting.”

Inside, Princess Charlotte and Natasha were waiting.

“Natasha, isn’t it. You look well!”

“Yes. Thank you for yesterday. And Olivia, thank you for treating me. I’m grateful.”

“No, no, no thanks needed!”

Natasha bowed.
Olivia bowed even deeper than Natasha.

“No, no, no, please let me thank you.”

“No, no, no, no, I’m only a maid.”

Natasha bowed deeper still.
Olivia bowed deeper, and deeper still.

“How long will you keep that up? You’ll sink into the floor.”

“Ah, you’re right…”

“Pardon us…”

“Fufufu. You two are two of a kind. Come, please sit.”

Lady Ulrika perched on a chair.
Olivia stood diagonally behind her.

“Ulrika, Olivia. Please let me thank you again.”

“Mm?”

“Thank you so much for saving us yesterday.”

Princess Charlotte bowed in a clean, proper posture.
At the sudden event, Natasha’s eyes went round.
Olivia’s face went pale with shock.

“And please let me apologize for everything until now. Ulrika, Olivia, I’m truly sorry.” Continue reading →

Flying Magic

The viewers got bored of the scenery, so I sped up. From the Spirit Forest to the town is about the distance of a horse running a full day, apparently. I got there in about an hour, and even then everyone seemed bored.

‘After you sped up we couldn’t even tell what the scenery was lol’
‘All we could do was talk…’

“Hmm… Next time I won’t stream during travel.”

I can’t say the travel itself is important, and showing just inside the town is fine too.
Anyway, arrival. I’m flying fairly high, and a big town is visible below. A large wall against magic beasts surrounds the town, with gates at east, west, south, and north.

“Which gate should I use. The closest one okay?”

‘No’
‘It’d be obvious you came from the Spirit Forest. How about the south gate?’

“South, then.”

I gain altitude so I can’t be seen from the ground, and head for the opposite side.
Looking down from up here, you can tell it’s a really wide town. There’s a big building in the center, I wonder what that is?

‘Whoa. This is fantasy, huh’
‘What’s amazing is that a town that big has no power lines’
‘Unthinkable from modern Japan’ Continue reading →
