"Miro, big sister!"
Walking around near the elentary school, Miro easily found her youngest sibling.
"Lily!"
Lily R. Silverwind.
Unlike Miro and Kairan who could be classified as 'adults' in their own way, Lily was still a 'teenager.'
Lily was the daughter of Miro's third mother, Maria Silverwind, the Margrave of Silverwind.
Unlike her gloomy(?) third mother, Lily was the Raven family's unrivaled 'healing' character.
She loved people, was kind, and always positive.
Ian once said about Lily that "it seems Maria absorbed all the gloominess."
Only Maria tilted her head in confusion, while everyone else nodded.
Even Miro, who didn't particularly like people, adored Lily imnsely.
There was nothing to dislike about her.
She was doll-like pretty. With her gentle, smiling personality, just being around her made one feel warm inside.
"Are you already done with school?"
"Yes. There were no classes. I just went there for research."
"Wow... I wish I had days when I could go ho early like you..."
Unlike universities, the Empire's elentary schools typically held classes almost all day.
This was because they also functioned as a kind of daycare facility.
Actually, Lily didn't need to attend elentary school as she was a noble, but...
Due to Maria's strong insistence, she could only return ho at designated tis.
"How's your studying going?"
"Uh... you an magic studies?"
"Of course I an magic."
Lily smiled awkwardly.
Though Lily was like a retriever, indiscriminately liking almost everyone.
Honestly, she didn't much care for Miro who only talked about magic whenever she opened her mouth...
In truth, the only person in the Raven family who could converse with Miro was Ian.
For the rest, occasionally the ultra-sociable Kairan would engage with her?
Miro absolutely adored Lily.
But Lily actually found Miro intimidating.
Being a magic-fanatic nearly on the sa level as her father, and the university's biggest loner, there was nothing they could talk about.
"Well, these days... Ah!"
Before Lily could be flustered, a child Lily's age appeared.
An elentary school friend.
"Hey! Lily! Hurry up and continue practicing! Or did you run away by yourself?"
Miro stared at the unfamiliar girl with an insensitive gaze.
...Lily wanted to run away out of fear!
"Who's this?"
"Ah, um, Sister! This is my friend!"
Miro walked steadily toward Lily's friend.
"Hello?"
"Who are you?"
"I'm Lily's older sister. Lily needs to co with right now. Are you very busy?"
Lily frantically waved her hands.
...Her friend didn't see Lily's signal!
"A little? We were practicing for the [Formula Battle] that's happening in a few days."
"Formula Battle?"
"It's a competition where we solve each other's magic formulas in our class."
Miro smiled brightly.
...It was the smile Lily feared most!
"I'm being evaluated for a [Magic Professor] qualification at the Magic University. Could I perhaps look at your formulas?"
"Really? Would you review them for us?"
Lily gazed at her friend with desperate eyes.
My friend, do not cross that river!
But her friend walked straight into the magic-fanatic's mouth on her own...
"Lily. Want to join us too?"
"Ah."
Of course, Lily too.

"You've been claiming that [Ignition] formula is a simple magic, but that's truly a mistaken idea."
"...No. This is elentary school level..."
"Ignition can't possibly be simple, can it? Look. What's the principle behind fire igniting?"
"..."
"What's the difference between fire and heat? Why do so things catch fire while others just get hot?"
"Well..."
"I'll demonstrate."
Miro took out her magic wand and waved it.
"[Ignition.]"
[Skill: Ignition]
[Basic magic that makes flas bloom on the target.]
[MP: 30]
The [Magic Panel] appeared before Miro's eyes.
Almost all magic could be used through this [Magic Panel].
This was possible because the Empire's Supre Lector, Ian, had organized all magic.
When a wizard selected the appropriate magic from the [Magic Panel]—
The [Mana] stored in the wand manifested the magic.
This was modern magic.
Ordinary wizards used magic by calling up the information stored in the panel exactly as is.
But what about skilled wizards?
"[Magic Modification]"
[Modification command confird. Which part would you like to change?]
"[Change Ignition's MP consumption to 1]"
[Warning. Command exceeds specified variable range.]
[Formula editing required.]
"[Edit. Reduce temperature increase by 80%, but pull the specified output value to the minimum.]"
[Edit confird.]
She understood the principles of magic herself and knew how to make changes.
Miro Talian was a genius who could rightfully be called the best wizard of the new generation.
She knew perfectly how to handle the [Magic Panel] created by Ian, and furthermore, could freely edit magic.
Creating more efficient and superior magic.
That was Wizard Miro's dream and goal.
"Now. The mana required for ignition is normally 30, right? But by editing like this, you can recreate the basic principle of ignition with less mana."
"..."
"This doesn't look like ignition at all, does it? So how could this develop into ignition?"
"...I think I need to go ho..."
Miro finally let the girl go when she started crying and begging.
Of course, she had no idea what she'd done wrong...
"Let's go ho too."
"Yes. When we get ho, let's stop by Father's office."
"Dad's office?"
"Father was looking for us. I don't know why."
"Could it be about the family trip?"
"Family trip?"
"Yes... Dad said he wanted to go to the Coral Sea for about a year... Didn't you know?"
"? I didn't know that?"
"..."
Lily was slightly taken aback but soon nodded.
Her companion was Miro. What could she expect?
Lily had already forgotten how to have expectations of Miro...
"Father is too much."
Miro grumbled.
"Making travel plans without saying a word to ."
'He did tell you...'
Lily thought this but couldn't bring herself to say it.
It was obvious that Miro would think Lily was lying.
"Let's go then."
The two held hands and headed to their father's office.
Ian sotis worked at the university headquarters, but he preferred researching at ho.
What? The headmaster doesn't co to work?
If the Empire's [Supre Lector] doesn't want to co to work, what can you do?
Ironically, in Ian's household, only Kira went to work more often.
Since Kira was a regular professor, she had to teach classes without exception...
Moreover, her lectures were extrely popular, so teaching fatigue was high.
This was sothing even Ian couldn't help.
No one had forced her to beco popular anyway!
"Miro! You're back!"
"I'm ho, Mother."
"Did Lily study hard too?"
"Yes! First Mother!"
"Ah! Miro! Mom baked cookies~!"
"I'll eat them after greeting Father."
Miro bowed politely to Lucy before heading straight to Ian's office.
At the door, Miro took a deep breath.
Ian's office.
It was the space Miro loved most in the world.
Because it was the place where especially bright mories were made amidst the barren mories of her childhood.
Though Miro was a genius.
Only Ian truly appreciated her genius.
Ian was the only one who recognized Miro not simply as a 'strange child' but as a 'child who matured quickly because she was too intelligent.'
That's why Miro loved that room so much.
...It was a space that naturally ward her heart.
Miro spoke with a slightly trembling voice.
"Father."
A middle-aged man's voice ca from beyond the door.
"Co in."
As soon as the door opened, bright sunlight greeted her.
A wide glass ceiling filled the room—
A room full of all kinds of plants, animal specins, parchnts, and books.
This was the office of her father, whom Miro respected most in the world.
"I heard you were looking for us."
Lily wore a curious smile.
Miro herself didn't realize it, but her voice went up about an octave when talking to Ian.
Though Lily also loved Ian.
Among all the children, Miro was undoubtedly the one who loved Ian the most.
"Yes. Rember when I talked about the family trip before?"
"Of course I rember."
...That was a lie.
She had forgotten until Lily told her.
But fearing she'd be treated as a 'strange person' if she was honest, Miro answered nonchalantly.
"I wanted to ask for your opinions."
"I'm fine anyti!"
"...I'll try to make ti as well."
Ian smiled brightly.
Oh my. Miro. You forgot again...!
It was 100% certain, seeing how the date didn't imdiately co to her mind.
Miro worried that Ian would be disappointed in this aspect of her.
But Ian simply thought, 'Ah. She really is Lucy's daughter after all~!'
"But why suddenly a trip to the Coral Sea?"
"...A respected elder passed away. I promised I'd visit again, so I need to keep that promise."
Ian briefly explained to his children.
What kind of journeys he had in his youth—
And what kinds of people he t.
"Sir Salvador was. A truly magnificent knight."
"I see."
"These days everyone only looks for Belenka, but in my day, Sir Salvador was the greatest knight."
"...Ah. Yes."
Ian chuckled.
Saying "back in my day~" without even realizing it.
I've beco such an old man...!
"I like the idea of a family trip too."
"Then, keep your schedule open for a while."
After coordinating schedules with the children, Ian sat alone at his desk.
Then he pulled out a book.
It was the [Travel Journal] co-written with Takarion.
"When was the last ti..."
Ian slowly turned the pages of the travel journal.
The records from his youth were packed, but.
After his third child Lily was born, the records were virtually blank.
...There had been no opportunities to travel.
Building up the Magic University had been too demanding.
Looking after the children also consud a lot of ti.
But Ian smiled gently.
Now that the children were nearly grown—
Truly, after such a long ti, an opportunity to travel again had presented itself.
Ian slowly picked up his quill.
And wrote new words in the [Travel Journal].
Just two words.
Family Trip.
That was enough.
...
...
