Ein received a farewell from Kaisel at the school. Its contents were a letter of introduction to the Alliance and a source called Majolica.
After that, leave the school and take the water train back to White Rose Station. With Chris, he went for the Magic Stone store in Majolica and advanced his legs.
From the boulevard, a majolica shop set in one shaded part.
He had a reputation among adventurers as a hidden famous store.
Even though the reputation is only "hidden", there are no custors in the store today, and only Ain and Chris are entering the store.
"... Your Highness? You know... you don't have to look in the store for a flicker. My shop is more real in the evening."
What Ain thought was that Majorica would find out lightly. The majolica also speaks of it.
"Uh... why evening?
"Because the adventurers are coming ho. So I'm going to wholesale all the good demon stones I've been hunting. And then you'll be rich in the morning, or the servant will co and buy it."
Majorica's Demon Stone Shop is crowded with ti earlier than noon in the morning and after evening. Otherwise, there will be no more visitors at all.
Apart from the evening, of course, the rich and the adventurers co. Still, only enough people co to count on the day.
"Well fine. Welco, both of you. I wonder what happened today?
Secondly, Ain is deprived of consciousness by the Demon Stone. It still slls pretty good in the store today, and Ain't got to look around, and Ain't got to be fluffy.
"Dear Ein... You can't. You have sothing to do first, don't you?
"Whoa, I totally forgot."
"Oh, can you run errands on , not Demon Stone?
"--Actually..."
Sa content I told Kaisel. Tell it to Majorica. Majorica, who also enters and exits the castle with the loading of demonic stones, for which reason the confidentiality contracted is strict and worthy of credit.
Before I arrived at the store, I sent them to the castle and asked Majorica if I could tell them about it, and Warren gave permission.
Explain the sa things you told Kaisel about the Red Fox from about the Demon King.
Majorica looking interesting at first. But when you hear the Red Fox and its unique skill, The Curse of Loneliness, along the way, your expression gradually becos more rude.
"... both of you wait a mont. 'Cause I'm gonna do the shoplifting."
When it's a good ti to talk, Majorica goes outside when she suddenly closes the store. The look on Majorica's face she gave looked lost sowhere.
"You know sothing."
"... yeah. Good luck with that."
Ein and Chris both guessed that Majorica knew sothing about the clue. Otherwise, things wouldn't have changed so much about Majorica, that's what I thought. Soon after the storefront Majorica returns to the store, Karan Karan and the sound of a bell ringing by opening the door is sowhere sad.
"Ha... you two, tea would be nice, right?
"No, I don't mind."
"That won't be the reason. To His Royal Highness Prince Wang, Marshal...... there are two of them, but I can't believe I'm not giving anything away. And... maybe sothing long out there, this story."
After all, Majorica knows sothing. Ain't I glad in my heart, so fast, I never thought I'd have a clue.
Majorica turns behind the counter and starts preparing tea from where Ain and the others can see it.
"Nevertheless, Your Highness. Long ti no see, long ti no see."
"Oh. There was a lot going on and I was supposed to rest."
"... yeah. Hey, Chris? Do you have any idea why I ssed up?"
"Because we talk about important things, don't we?
"Which thing is that? Red Fox...? Or the Demon King?"
What Majorica says is both right. And if you have information about both, I want it so bad that I can get my hands out of my throat.
"Both, though."
"Yes. Then it's not the sa reason I really ssed up the store, yes, please, both of you."
Majorica hands over the finished tea to Ain and Chris. But I don't know why Majorica did it.
"Mr. Majolica. What do you an? You're saying there's a reason, besides what you're saying to Mr. Chris?
"... Hey, Your Highness. Are you... are you sure, Your Highness?
The word assud a sharp cooling of the air in the store, altering the atmosphere as if it were a different world.
"What the hell is that? What does that an?
"Are you a" person "or a" demon "…? Can you tell which one it is?"
"Ah majolica......! That's too disrespectful --"
Chris reveals his anger at Majorica's words. I don't know what Majorica felt, but that word alone would be enough offense of disrespect.
Ain't that right in front of Chris, hands up and stop her moving.
"I'm still human." Is this it?
Only calmly, Ain't made a word out of it without showing how one thing worked. Tell him about yourself, staring straight at Majorica.
"... yes." Not yet "... Okay, Your Royal Highness. I'm sorry for being rude, Chris. But I really had to ask."
"... ok"
Chris how Majorica honestly apologizes, but still hasn't completely forgiven him. But because Ein has stopped at sight, Chris decides to be patient.
"But Mr. Majolica. Why do you ask that question?
"From a man who made a seal like a living thing, His Highness looks like a demon. How did that happen and what happened..."
"Probably because I'm getting stronger by sucking on demon stones"
"A, Dear Ein!?
To Ain, who suddenly tells the secret, Chris grabs Ain's shoulder and makes him turn to himself.
"I'll be fine. If you're Mr. Majorica. We're talking about the sa kind of confidentiality already... well, that's why. I wonder if that brings us closer to the demon."
"... Chris. Is what Your Highness says true?
"Ha... yeah, I am. Having absorbed so many demonic stones so far, Ein has gained the power he has now."
Describe the toxinolytic EX Ein possesses and one miracle that resulted from his skills in absorbing dry ads. Majorica seed strongly intrigued, and I heard Chris explain, nodding yeah.
"You understand ?
"Yes, I understand, Your Highness. But... it's like a world tree."
"World Tree...?
"Oh sure, if you ask ...!
Ein didn't know what he was talking about, but Chris seems to rember and agrees with the words.
"He is said to be the ancestor of dry ads. That's the world tree. It protects those who dwell near themselves, and if there are evil demons, it sucks without question if it has feet on the earth. That's the World Tree."
"What ancestor... does that an it was the dry adds that ca from the world tree?
"That's what they say. That's why I thought you looked a little like . Anyway, I can't believe the guy who pulled Dry Ads' blood has that kind of power... you feel the edge, don't you?
When I heard that, I could snort to it, Ain.
"So maybe I was about to beco sothing more of a guardian than a demon.... Well, I know what's going on for now. You asked Kaisel, and she relied on , right?
"Yes.... do you know anything about red fox?
"I know you do."
I honestly admitted it, Majorica. Hearing that, Ein does not hide his joy, but floats to his expression. Chris, standing beside him, also gave a hospitable look.
"Sothing I used to read in a city that was written about it. … troubleso creatures who by race were enemies or allies"
"Whoa... tell !
The look of Ain asking to speak up and tell you what it is about. But Majorica looks a little troubled and starts thinking a little bit.
"There's only one more thing I know. The Red Fox manipulates demons, forcing them to manipulate even if they're not the demons they raised... that's all I know. The sa goes for the lack of material, but I wasn't even that interested at the ti..."
"Oh yeah..."
I'm sorry to hear that. Still useful information, I didn't know you manipulated demons. Chris starts thinking about what ans to do it.
"So I'm going to introduce you both to a place where you might know a little more. You said you read about it in a city a long ti ago, right? The na of that city is' Magic City Ist '. Looks like Kaisel prepared a letter of introduction to the Alliance, and from there's one institute there… I'll write you a letter of introduction to a certain institute, attached to Ist's school."
Just today, Ain't got two references. I'm sorry I haven't been introduced, so I thought I'd bring you sothing to thank you for next ti.
"What's a magic city ist..."
"Dear Ein, did you know?
"Of course. I understand the geography of the continent once, but... how long does it take to get there by water train?
Again, Majorica heads to the counter and now begins to prepare a letter of introduction. The authoritative venue is that the references that Majolica prepares are precious because, without the references, the gateway paynt is normal.
"There are direct flights to Ist. It's a flight that won't stop at any station on the way, so we'll keep accelerating... so you'll be there in half a day."
"Still half a day? I knew it was a long way off."
"If it's purely distance, it's more than double the magna."
It would be the best move in the continent for Ain. But there's also fun, magic city of Ist. If you own demons such as Wyburn, there are people who use it to transport them. It is probably a city with a far more fantasy-stained atmosphere than the King's capital, even in light of the past life you can recall from Ain's fading mories and things in it.
Ishtarika has four large cities. The first is the Wang capital, the largest and most populous city in Ishtarika than anywhere else.
Next is the magic city ist. Speaking of magic, more research was going on than in the Wang capital, and Ist was also famous as an experintal city. In addition, research on demons is progressing a lot and such materials are abundant.
Just like the area known as Wang Du's school city, Ist is lined with many schools. Basically, all the graduates are those who hold research positions.
The third is Balto, the town of adventurers. The city arrives in less than half a day by water train from Wangdu.
As its na suggests, it is a town where many adventurers gather, and there are many demons in the area around it. It was Baltic where all those who hunted it and lived lived.
Many of the materials that can be taken there are, of course, shipped to Wang Capital, which is an important food for life.
Ein's classmate Bats, the fort his father is on duty, exists just outside this city.
Finally, the port town of Magna. Many seafood products delivered throughout the continent are spread through this magna. The ingredients eaten locally are very fresh and delicious enough to be liked by the Ishtarika royal family.
"Yes, Your Highness. I got it, I think you can get it through easily if you take this."
"Thank you!
The na I was given belonged to an unfamiliar school, but it's natural. Exactly. Speaking of Ain, I don't even know the na of a school in another city. But thanks to Majorica, we were fortunate enough to continue our investigation.
"So? Are you headed as Prince Wang? It's going to be just as noisy."
"Ah... yes. Instructor Kaisel said that Mr. Majorica could do sothing about it."
"... oh?
"Can we do sothing so that Prince Wang doesn't find out?
"Ma... another sudden challenge"
Majorica begins to think with her hands on her forehead. Whether it's a challenge or not, Ain't thank you for coming up with that solution.
"How many, by the way?"
Majorica, who turned to Chris, asks.
"Dear Ein. ...... and then, even if you're coming, you're Dill. So I thought maybe three."
"I'll have 15 million G's out. If that's okay with you, I'll make it for you."
For a lot of money, Ain't thought I'd have to look for another way. But Chris responds to it.
"Okay. I'll bring it to you later."
"Yeah, I got it. Then I'll do sothing to make it early."
I was surprised to hear that Chris instantly responded, 15 million G, but conveyed his willingness to accept without any concern.
"K...... Mr. Chris!? Are you sure?
"Naturally. I an, it's cheap if that's what it takes. I was prepared to go up to 200 million Gs."
"Oh, yeah..."
"Your Highness. Demon props are expensive, and it's easy to get over 10 billion G's when it's expensive stuff.... Well, as a people, His Royal Highness Prince Wang is tough on money and secure."
Even the average monthly inco was an easy amount to buy if it was also a demonic item for civilian use. But if it's a bespoke item, the price jumps at once, and the digits change. Though royal, Ein was surprised because he didn't get to spend much money either.
"And Dear Ein. Mr. Majorica probably deducts the technical costs. Because it would only be the amount of material...... Right?
"Yep. If I could just add the technical costs, I might have gotten 50 million G's."
"... then 15 million G would be too cheap."
"If you think you will serve His Royal Highness Prince Wang... well, that's fine. And I'm asking Chris to do it."
Majorica ntions a big thing about the vessel with a crazy smile on her face. Ain't been filled with sorry, but only one thing bothered .
"Speaking of which, what do you know about Mr. Chris and Mr. Majolica?
My body has solidified in a pissy way, Chris. Look at her. What? I thought Ein, but turned to Majorica for answers.
"... Chris. Didn't you tell him yet?
"Yes, it's hard to say or sothing..."
"Eh.... Mr. Chris, what can I do for you?
I'm still slightly confused Chris, but I never turned to Ain and opened my mouth. If you look at her hand, you can see she's holding her fist hard.
"... my sister with Mr. Majolica. And Lord Kaisel and I were at the sa party..."
"Ah, sister......!?
"Totally no more. Why didn't you tell so soon?"
"It's hard to say because the content is a bit allergic..."
Continue the conversation between the two with Ain in sight who keeps surprised. Ain't never heard a word about Chris having a sister.
"K, Mr. Chris!? Your sister was there."
"It's true. She was a sister full of problems..."
"... yeah right. You had a lot of problems. You were a tough girl."
"... Phew. Was your sister stronger than Mr. Chris?
Ain, who took a few deep breaths, regains just a little calm. What Chris and Majorica are talking about was quite an interesting story.
"Instead of , I was soone who wasn't even my hand or my leg, my sister. It was full of problems."
"Yes, I was really strong, Your Highness. Thanks to her, our party has spread its na. Well, she was a woman full of problems."
"... it's just amazing to imagine that Mr. Lloyd has no hands or feet. But he said it was full of problems...?
Chris starts holding his head with both hands. Chris, when you look at that, you were apparently quite a person. Ein, who sohow got hard to hear about Chris' sister.
"Also...... sorry Dear Ein. I'll tell you one by one, so give a break around here today..."
"Oh, uh... okay. I'm sorry about that, huh?
"Ha... boy. Your Highness, it's a little hard to say. That's why Chris got a little confused, too. Forgive him, okay?
"Of course. It's nothing to be angry about."
Chris, who is still holding his head, Ain't sohow looked like a dog and stroked his head on. When I saw Chris being caressed in silence, he soothed a little.... Is it your fault? Chris felt his body slightly shifted so Ain could stroke easily.
"I've been kept for a long ti, cat... well, fine. In the anti, I'll start making specially ordered magic props today, and when I can, I'll co and deliver them to the castle. Is that all right with you?
"Please. I'm suddenly sorry."
"It's okay. That's about it. I think I can do it in about ten days. Final confirmation, but three is fine, right?
"Yes, we don't even act in large numbers, so please count them. … If we were to act in large numbers, perhaps it would be ti for Ishtarika to move officially."
"Right. Got it... I'll make you 15 million G's."
Concerned, about Ain acting while hiding who he is. With Majorica's cooperation it begins to move towards a solution.
And the Red Fox clue, too, was told where he was likely to find it. If you think you just got started, you'd have a pretty good head start. The survey was thinking about working on an annual basis, I'm happy with this smooth haul because it was about its arrowheads.
"Look, Chris. How long has the escort been stroking his head? Co back here!
If Chris really was a dog, his tail would probably have swung with great montum. Chris atmosphere that feels that way.
But at that hour, the end ca, and Chris cautioned Majorica.
"Ha... but I'm sorry, Dear Ein. I was a little out of my mind."
Seeing Chris return to sanity, Majorica muttered 'I knew you were a pompous...'
The voice doesn't sound like Ein and Chris, it just ends on its own.
"Look, I've already done sothing for you. Take your Highness back to the castle. It won't keep you waiting."
"But I'm sorry, Master Ain! I'm losing my mind."
Keep your head down, Chris. It won't be my fault you look a little blushed.
"That's about it if you ask . Then it's ti to go ho, Guild later. I'd like to sort things out for today."
"I understand!...... Majolica. Thank you for your cooperation."
"Yes, sir. Welco again, now take your ti, Your Highness."
The following objectives were determined: Aim for a magical city ist with a degree of discipline. So I'll use Majorica's introduction and get to work on the investigation.
Going to my first city, I can't say I'm not looking forward to that. Instead, from Ain't now, it's like half looking forward to the investigation and half enjoying it.
As a matter of fact, the magic city of Ist was the city where Ein planned to take the form of studying abroad in the short term when he was in his sixth year.
Ain't got a lot of education on magic in King's Capital and no hands-on classes. That was to go to Ist in the near future and educate them about high magic in Ist.
And Ain't going to be heading to the magical city of Ist, though it turns out to be in a different way.
There was an important investigation called Red Fox, but given the authentic magic that would be touching it for the first ti, it couldn't stop my mind from starting to leap.
