Translator: Jiro Editor: Ryunakama

Following that, we took turns pouring magical power into the barrier until the Protection Barrier was fully repaired.

Im all done Zeph. Milly said.

Good job.

A dim light enveloped the whole room and the magic circuits began to work properly once more.

Their construction looked strangely beautiful.

This really is spectacular.

As I looked at the properly operating chanism a new idea struck .

Lydia and I both had a curious expression on our faces as we watched the magic circuit in action.

As I was focusing on engraving the way the magic power moved I heard a voice inside my head.

Hey Zeph. It seems like you successfully put up the Protection Barrier. Could you leave the Hokora? Im going to adjust the seal so that no one can get in.

It was Yera.

I would have liked to study it a bit more, but I never expected that Id get this fixed soon.

Okay

Haha. You sound quite disappointed.

You on the other hand sound quite happy, Yera.

The Heavenly Mage Festival is drawing near after all And this year its Urohis turn so how can I not be excited. she said.

Really?I thought that it was the Blue Heavenly Mages turn this year.Maybe the order changed from what it was in my previous life

The Soul Heavenly Mage: Urohi Tatsumigawa.

She was a foreign princess who, a few years ago, married into the Hems Family, a family known for generations of Soul Heavenly Mages.

She then began to miraculously rise up, leaving her spouse behind and assuming one of the Five Heavenly Mage titles. A true prodigy of Soul Magic.

And, because Yera was a travel aficionado, she got along swimmingly with Urohi.

Urohi huh Kuku, I guess Im going to be looking forward to it as well.

Oh my! Are you planning on participating in the Title Match? Yera asked.

You could say.

The Heavenly Mage Festival was a once-a-year event sponsored alternately by the Five Heavenly Mages. And this year it was Urohis turn.

Which ant that this year the Title Match would have the Soul Heavenly Mages Soul of Soul title on the line.

And, as a result of returning to my country and fighting a number of high-levelled monsters, my level had increased to 88.

It wasnt quite up to par with when I was in my pri, but it was enough to defeat a Heavenly Mage.

I see. Ill have you now that Urohi is not an easy foe. Do your best. Hahaha Yera said, laughing loudly.

Of course. Ill do everything I can. I said with a grin.

By the way, could you leave the Hokora already? I want to completely restore the Protection Barrier.

Well be out any minute.

Tsch. I wanted to spectate the chanism a bit more, but I guess tis up.

I took everyone and we proceeded out of the Hokora. As soon as we closed the door a blinding light burst forth.

The light spread, enveloping the whole of Nanami and then disappeared.

It seems like the barrier successfully covered the whole city.Still this timing It feels like she was watching us the whole ti.Yera really is a scary one.

Will the town be all right now? Claude inquired, concerned.

I rembered what Yera had said to the other day and recited it to her.

According to Yera, the black monsters have begun to dwindle. At least in the North Continent that is. Furthermore, she said that a number of available Dispatch Magicians had been dispatched as well.

It was still difficult to declare the East Continent totally safe; a few Dispatch Magicians wouldnt help much, but it was better than nothing.

Well if sothing does happen well just rush over imdiately.

After I took a final glance at the Hokora we left Nanami.

So, how are we going to go back? Are we going by boat again? Milly asked.

Now that you ntion it Lydia exclaid, her face revealing her distress.

Co to think of it, we really dont have a ans of going back.If we are to go by boat to the North Continent, itll take us close to ten days.

We might not be able to make it in ti for the Heavenly Mage Festival.

Well considering there are no other options I guess it cant be helped.

Just as we were going to walk towards Berutas harbor, a human silhouette lood in front of us.

Youre finally here.

Elise?!! Milly exclaid.

Her surprise was completely normal.

Elise wore her crimson cap as usual, and her silver hair floated in the breeze.

She was the Fla of Fla, Bertram Cabels daughter, and despite her age, she was a Dispatch Magician.

With her transportation spell Portal, she was the one who had brought us here. However, we found ourselves on our own at one point, and she was caught by the bandit group. Afterwards Id sohow ended up rescuing her by accident.

I rember I told her to go back. To think that shed still be here.Shes way braver than I thought.

Didnt you go back to your fathers place? I asked.

Dont be foolish. Im a Dispatch Magician after all. I wont be able to return unless I finish my mission first.

Kuku, it appears that you do, after all, have a conscience.

As Elise looked at with evil eyes, I said, resting my hand on top of her head.

She may still be a chick, but shes doing everything she can to fulfil her duty.A Dispatch Magician should at least be this devoted to their work.

Elise was continually glaring at , as if she didnt appreciate my attitude.

How long do you plan to keep your hand there!! Dont act all friendly with !!

Sure, sure. I apologize. I said waving my hands.

Elise on the other hand, just turned her back to .

If youre going to do that, then why did you co to et us in the first place? I dont get her at all.

Claude stepped closer to as I let out a sigh.

Um Zeph-kun, who is this?

Oh yea, you havent t her Claude. This is the Dispatch Magician Elise. We were able to get here with the help of her transportation spell.

A Dispatch Magician? Claude asked with a stiff expression.

Elise then turned around and presented her hand to Claude.

Its a pleasure to et you. My na is Elise Cabel.

The pleasures all mine. Im Claude Leonhardt.

Both of them said, tightly gripping their hands

What an intense handshake!It seems like Claude is sowhat cautious of her.Could it be because Elises a Dispatch Magician?

The one who brainwashed Claude three years ago had also been a Dispatch Magician, so maybe that was why.

I should change the topic for now.

So Elise, why did you co?

Considering its you I thought that maybe youd be in a pinch with no way of going back. L-Like thered be any other reason for to co!!!

I guess youre right.

Hmph Im glad you understand!

Elises voice broke at the end of the last line for so reason.I really dont get her.

Either way, just wait here for a bit. Ill get ready. Elise said.

Sure thing.

Elise turned around and retrieved a large cloth from her rucksack.

It was a cloth with a magic circle drawn on top of it The cloth was a magic tool which increased a spells power. By using it she was able to transport a large number of people at once.

Im done. Get on. she urged.

S-So cramped Milly murmured.

Similar to her, everyone had difficulty getting on top of the cloth.

Due to Claude being with us, it felt even more cramped than last ti.

As Claude clung on to she spoke in a quiet tone.

Zeph-kun It seems like you got another one

What are you talking about?

Nothing Claude replied while glaring at .

I sensed a jet black aura emanating from her, but it was most likely just my imagination.

Seeing Elise look over here from ti to ti also led to think that maybe she was sowhat cautious of Claude as well.

Elise and Claude huh For so reason they dont seem like theyll get along with one another.

Well then, were off!! Elise said, closing her eyes and beginning to chant.

The magic circle suddenly emitted a blue glow that fully engulfed us.

The view in front of my eyes increasingly darkened as the light encompassed us fully. The blackness cleared after a while, and I found myself tossed on top of the dirt ground.

Imdiately after that, one after another, everyone fell on top of .

Were here. Elise said.

Ouch Where exactly are we? Claude asked.

Without looking her in the eyes, Elise replied.

Were in a plain close to the capital. Its be dangerous if we were to appear in a strange place and bump into the people there, dont you think? To think that you couldnt even figure out that much, hmph Elise said with a smug.

Urgh

Claude was sowhat irritated by Elises condemnatory attitude.

I guess these two really dont get along after all.

Milly abruptly stood up and approached Elise, surrounded by the tense atmosphere.

No matter how many tis I see it, its still an amazing spell. Thank you Elise she said.

I-It wasnt much!

Nihihi, oh co on, you should be more honest from ti to ti

Elise didnt seem to be that displeased with Millys behaviour.

These two, on the other hand, seem to be doing quite well.Milly does have the tendency of not building any walls between herself and other people after all.She can be considered the archenemy of those who enjoy erecting such barriers.

Either way, Im going. I wish you all the best. Elise said, turning around.

You too.

See you again Elise Milly said, waving her hand at Elise.

While Elise on the other hand just glared at her. It was a determined look, the kind one would send towards their rivals.

Elise shifted her gaze away from the dumbfounded Milly, casting Teleport and vanishing.

As Milly watched Elise fly away I placed my hand on top of her head.

If you arent serious shell leave you behind. I said.

Huh? What do you an? Milly asked.

Nothing.

Well I guess being an airhead is one of Millys strengths.The Great Magicians of the future huhFinding a good rival with whom you can grow together is certainly crucial.Milly and Elise Considering their talents, theyll probably beco one of the Five Heavenly Mages in the future.

Well, they wont be as strong as though. I said laughing.

?

Milly simply tilted her head in astonishnt without saying anything. I made my way to the capital with Milly and the others.
