I descend slowly from the air. The soldier who’d been standing blankly in front of the gate notices me and hastily stands at attention.

“We’ve been waiting for you!”
“Eh.”

I was being waited for, somehow. Why?

‘Mireille’s arrangements?’
‘Rather I can’t think of anything else’
‘Mireille, competent’

I don’t get it. I don’t want it spread much that I’m the Guardian… Did she spread it?

“Um.”
“Yes!”
“Have you heard something about me?”
“No. Only that it has been confirmed you will be granted the title of Witch.”
“I-I see…”

Confirmed, huh. I thought I’d get scolded for not coming back together even if the request didn’t fail. If I can get it I want it, though.
I want a cool title and such.

“Will I get an epithet too?”
“Most likely without question.”
“Hmm… Mireille’s Scorching Flame is cool, right.”
“It is cool…” Continue reading →

Snack Toss After a While

I wake up. I leave the house, yawn, and start the stream.

“I’m out of sweets. Please.”

‘Morning’
‘At least say hello lol’
‘Sweets, huh, leave it to me!’

A reply like striking iron and getting a ring. A big help. Breakfast is happening.
When I wait a little, lots of sweets start lining up in front of me. Today there are more snack types than Japanese sweets. I like these too because they’re delicious.

‘Wait wait what’s happening!?’
‘Is this that rumored snack toss?’
‘How do you do it? I want to too’
‘Come to think of it ever since that incident new people have exploded’
‘About time to put the magic circle out again?’

“Mm… Yeah. I’ll do that.”

I actually don’t know much about how they watch my stream on that side. Just, the magic circle for snack toss is, they take what I showed, kyapucha? Something like that. Then they print it, or so I hear.
By the way, the one who taught the viewers how to print was Master, not me. I don’t get it, so when they don’t get it I want them to talk it out over there.
I take my staff and display a magic circle at the tip. I point it at the sphere of light.

“Somehow get this magic circle onto paper. Handwriting is probably impossible, so do that printing thing properly. Then when I send mana through the magic circle, the sweets on top of the circle are collected.” Continue reading →

“Mm. The name is Kouta. I don’t know the kanji or the family name. The time he died is between when the plan for Kokoro-zakura Island was announced and when development started. About that much.”
“I see. Understood, I’ll have them look into it.”
“Please.”

I don’t know how far they can look, but they should be able to look further than I can.
Now then. For me, this is more the main topic, maybe.

“So, Hashimoto, what do you want from me?”

I don’t think they’d do it for free. I’ve heard Japan has a huge population, and I understand searching from that is a really hard job.
So considering the price, even if there’s some unreasonable demand…

“Let’s see. Nothing in particular, I suppose.”
“Eh.” Continue reading →

“I see, so magic appears to be a fact.”
“Mm. It doesn’t prove another planet or anything, though.”
“No, it’s enough. Ah, it’s plenty…”

Saying that, Hashimoto looks up at the ceiling, tired. No, he really is tired. Work is hard after all, maybe. The pressure must be huge too.

‘Rita-chan. The prime minister’s tiredness isn’t that kind…’

“Mm?”

‘It’s mostly Rita-chan’s fault’
‘It really was a huge fuss’
‘A nasty joke might have been easier, you know’

“Ahh…”

Yeah. Apparently I really made things very hard. I don’t know the specifics of what happened, but this is my fault after all, maybe.

“I’m sorry.”

When I apologize, Hashimoto hastily brings his gaze back and waves his hands.

“No no! It’s nothing for you to worry about! If anything, I want to say thank you for coming to Japan.”
“Is that how it is?”
“That’s how it is.” Continue reading →

The Prime Minister

Where the car brought me was a big building. Apparently a really nice hotel. We take the elevator, and I’m shown to the top floor. I’m led into a very wide room.

“Could you wait here?”
“Mm. How long?”
“Probably we’ll make it before the sun sets…”
“Hmm…”

Waiting isn’t a problem. Even if I stay the night, it’s not like there’s anyone who’d worry. The Great Spirit shouldn’t worry either. So well, it’s fine.

“Can I stream in this room?”
“As long as you don’t leave the room, it’s fine.”
“Mm.”

I got permission, so I resume the stream.
The viewers seem really surprised by the room. I am too.
In the spacious room, calm furniture is arranged. In the center is a big table and chairs, and a lot of sweets are laid out on the table.

“Can I eat these?”
“Of course.” Continue reading →

When I look at the rooftop of the building again, they seem to have noticed me after all, and they’re staring this way. When I think our eyes meet, they bow. It’s a little embarrassing, so I want them to stop.
When I come down in front of them, the three bow deeply again.

“Welcome, Guardian of the Spirit Forest, Lady Rita.”
“Uwah… How do you know that? Eh? Have you been watching my stream from that far back?”
“Of course.”
“Eeh… Are you that free…?”

Ah, they stalled. That might have been rude. Sorry.

‘Rita-chan, are you in a bad mood?’
‘No I think she just thought that and asked’
‘You know? A word-knife is sharper when there’s no malice’
‘You can tell by looking lmao’

Ahem, the man thinks, and continues. Continue reading →

After finishing the morning stream, I teleport to Japan past noon. The destination is Mami’s house.
When I teleport onto the balcony and go in, Mami and Chii-chan were eating something. Plenty of water in the bowls, and they’re slurping something whitish and long and thin. First time I’ve seen it.
Mami notices me and her eyes go round.

“Eh? Rita-chan, why?”
“Why… Would it have been better if I didn’t come?”
“That’s not it. I was watching the stream, but the government people?”
“Mm… Later. I’m not in a hurry.”

After the morning stream, we only decided a meeting place. They said they want me to come when my hands are free, so I thought I’d do what I need to do first.
In other words, magic instruction for Chii-chan. Continue reading →
