194 8-4 Ains Hale Memorial Festival Unexpected visitor

After receiving advice from Mother, we decided to prepare the iron plate, but we couldn't do it in the alchemy room due to its size, so we decided to do it in the garden.

''You're going to put a fire magic stone on the iron plate?''

Yeah, but as a magical stone, the heat conduction will be unbalanced. But if the magic stone is left as it is, the heat conduction will be unbalanced. I'm going to process the magical stone to make it as flat and wide as possible.

'You can be so thin and still function...'

It's true that it's already more like a magic board than a magic stone, but it's weird because it's functional.

''Well, I'll teach you how to process a magic stone eventually.

Yeah. We'll just have to take our time with each one.

Yeah. Mizella's motivated, and she'll be able to do it soon enough.

"Hmm. That's exciting. Come to think of it, smelting outside, you have to get an A grade, right?

'Yeah. I've only recently learned that...

Class A is surprisingly convenient....

And when you're making something large, you have to build an alchemy room as big as a warehouse.

''What are you doing now?''

'Hmm?　That's the connection between the fire magic stone, the magic stone for storing magic power, the converter, and the activation device.

'It's pretty complicated it's just heating up the griddle, isn't it?'

"Since the kids will be handling it, we'll put safety first, and then we'll use water and wind magic stones on the outside frame to create a cool breeze to prevent heat stroke.

'What we're making right now is a festive iron plate, right?　It's not like a giant griddle for a big kitchen or anything, is it?

'Yeah. Well, if you're going to use it after that, you'd better be comfortable with it, right?　I should also try not to use the cold air when it gets cold........ Now we just need to adjust it so that it can move with as little magic power as possible.

Now you'll be able to open your stall comfortably on hot days like summer or cold days like winter.

There's an okonomiyaki stall you can eat at any time... isn't this great!

I have one question for you: are you donating...?

'Yeah. Materials are cheap, and if it's an orphanage, they won't complain about it elsewhere if they don't take the money, right?

There's no end to the amount of free everything, but if it's an orphanage, I can offer it for free in the form of donations.

Well, it's also strange that Aina and the others donate and I get money from them.

"The cost of the technology is outrageous, but I'm sure the kids won't get it.......

'Well, that's fine. As long as you have fun making the okonomiyaki. Ugh, let's go deliver it when it's done.

You're that kind of a guy, aren't you? Yes, I am. We'll do it. Well?　You look like a guest?

Hmm?

Mizzella turned her head towards the gate.

Hmmm!　What are you doing? I'm very curious.

Would you mind stepping away from the gate?

'Good. I've proved my identity and I have business with the alchemist here.

'Yes, but we have a doorbell...'

And also. We need this kind of espionage to protect Sicilian-sama, so I thought I'd practice it if you'd like!

This is Iris-sama's mansion as well, so that's not exactly...

''Because........Sicilia-sama, you're a stronger person than me, so you're not worth guarding....... I'm afraid that if I don't contribute in a place like this, I'll be abandoned at any moment...

I don't know...

What's going on here?

When I called out to the raccoon child, who seemed to be having trouble with his eyebrows, the gatekeeper of the raccoon tribe, he bowed his head and said, "Oh no, they've found you. He bowed his head and said, "It's been a while.

It's been a while!　It's Seren!

Oh, yes. I know, but..... Um, what's going on today?

Yes. 'Mike,' who is asking for an order from Mr. Iris?　I'm here to pick up what I believe to be the

Anyway, let's just open the gate and have her wait for a moment.

''Uh ... please wait a moment.

Yes!

I quickly left and checked with Iris.

''What is it? Do you want to see me?''

You ... you should at least tell me who the recipient of the order is.

"Hm?　Ah, Sicily. I forgot to tell you that I'm sorry. I'm sorry, but Serenity is probably on her way to pick it up.　Then give him what he wants. Seren has the money.

What's going on?

You seem to be more listless and cold than usual.

"I can't go to the Ainsdale Festival because of work..... Ha!　'You're not going to tell me you're going to open a store, are you, Masaka-Onushi!

'No, for now I'm planning to attend as normal but...'

'Oh, I see. If you hadn't invented another sweet taste, I would have been more depressed. Well then. Then hand me the things.

"Mr. Iris?　Skipping out?　Would you like more?

I'm at work!　And there's nothing more you can do!　Stupid!　Demon!　Too late!

"...yes?

"N-No, don't do this!　Get off me!　

The communication is cut off.

..........

Iris, you shouldn't say that to a woman.........

You've lost a man you'll miss....

''I'm sorry. I've received confirmation and I'll pass it on to you.

'Yes!　Iris-sama, you didn't say anything, did you? Well, here's the bill.

Mr. Seren gave me a bag of money, so I checked the contents.

It seemed to fit, so I gave her the microphone accessory I took out of the magic bag (in disguise), and Seren-san seemed to have put it away into the magic bag as well.

I'm sure you've seen this magic tool at an auction," said Sicilia-sama. She wanted it and asked Iris-sama to give it to her!

'Oh, I see. I mean, you were in on it.

'Yes!　Our country's chooks are on display too!　They bought it at a high price!

Yeah, that would probably be me.

Oh, it was you. How do you like it?

It was delicious.

The chocolate ice cream was delicious.....

Considering the unit price, I can't eat as much as I'd like, but I don't have enough to try many things, and I'd like to buy more.

I'd like to buy more. All your slaves are happy, aren't they? Usually they are not here.　I never knew a slave could taste sweetness.

'Well, we're not very normal, so...'

"As long as things change for the better!　By the way, what were you making earlier?　It looks like you've been making some pretty big ones.

'Oh, is that... uh, would you like to see it if you're interested?'

'Are you sure?　Could it be a secret weapon of the kingdom or something!

No, it's just an ordinary cookware...

What secret weapon.........

I can't and won't make such a thing even if I were asked to.......

I'm sure I'm going to make an enemy........

As I approached the iron plate, Miserra was wearing a hat, and after bowing to Seren-san, she gave up her spot so that I could see her better.

''Hoho.......it's a big iron plate, isn't it.......''

Yes. I'm making it to fit the festival tent. Um, we're almost done, can we continue?

''It's fine. I'm the one who abruptly bothered you, and besides, it's fun for me to show you alchemy.......and that person........?　I mean....what?　What's that?　No....no way...what?

Mr. Seren looked at Mizella, and suddenly he looked startled and moved closer and closer.

'Oh, um!　I don't mean to be rude, but weren't you at the auction in King's Landing the other day...?　Well ... as a slave ...

.........

Okay. If you've been to the auction, you've seen Mizera before, haven't you?

I'd prefer not to lie badly here but let's keep it nailed down.

Yes, sir. So I bought it. And now you are my apprentice.

'My God!　Oh, thank God.... I knew about the treatment of half-elves in this country, so protection in our country!　But I lost the bidding, and to this day I regret it!

My God........that opponent who was competing with me was Seren-san?

If you're Sicilia-sama's bodyguard, you're probably getting quite a bit of money, but even so, more than 5 million knolls is a lot of money.

If that's the case, then he must be a very good-natured person.......

''Oh, I'm sorry for the suddenness of not saying your name!　I am Seren, I am the guard of the Imperial Emperor's sister, Lady Sicilia Ocelot!

''The Empire's........royal family guard.......

'No, no. I'm not quite there yet.

What a person of effort, right?

''It's true that the Empire is a supreme powerhouse, but there's a perception that half-elves are large, late-in-life types.... But you'll be fine with it. It's good.......really, really good.......

Seren-san holds Mizella's hand, bowing her head and shedding tears.

You were really worried about her........

''.........Yes. I am happy to have met my master. Thank you, Seren-sama, for worrying about me too.

"Master!　I'm fine with Selenium. I'm still in the process of training myself, and we'll keep each other posted!　If I know you're doing your best, I'll be more inspired to do my best too!

Yes, sir. Seren. My name is Mizella. It's nice to meet you.

'Mizella yes. I remember!　And I won't forget!　Ah, today has been a good day........ I would have liked to talk to you a bit more if it wasn't for the important business of Miss Sicilia afterwards.

"Important business?　In this town?

'Yes. Apparently, I'd like to speak with my lord... ah!　I didn't tell anyone!　I'm sorry, I can't say more than that!　And forget it!

Oh, oh no it's fine. I won't say anything else. Neither will Misela.

'Yes. I'm fine.

''Ho........Huh, I can usually keep more secrets, but I was a little too happy to slip up.......I'm not ready yet....... Alright!　Reflection is over!　Now if you'll excuse me!

It didn't take long for me to recover from my reflection and turn on my heel and leave....

I wonder. You're a lovable, useless child......... I can understand why Sicilia-sama would want to keep it at hand.

I'm not going to be able to tell you what to do.

'Just leave it at that point I don't want the secret to slip out of your mouth...'

I see. Isn't that.......not good.......

'Well, I don't think Lady Sicilia doesn't know about it, so I guess I'm only giving her information that she can divulge...'

As I'm watching Seren walk out of the gate, I turn around and put my hands over my mouth.

Ah, don't shout something about this.

''I forgot to say it, but me and Sicilia-sama will be here until the festival!　I'll see you soon!　So long!
