: lend me some money (1)

Jamie was taken aback by the sudden situation.

There has never been a case in which a Perfect Cell activated itself like this.

I held it tightly with my hand, but the more I did it, the more intense the vibration.

"Master, why are you doing this?"

"Perfect Cell !"

Bena frowned as she looked at the bracelet swaying wildly.

"Why?"

I do not know either. Suddenly this... ."

Even after injecting mana, the vibration did not stop.

I couldn't figure out why I was doing this.

Then, out of nowhere, a series of groups appeared. They, of five, were moving the large box very carefully.

As it got closer to the box, the vibration got worse.

Jamie looked angrily at the box they were holding, and then her eyes widened.

'Sealing magic?'

At least 3 or more sealing magics were stacked.

It seemed to contain something very important.

Something so important and so great that the Perfect Cell responds to it.

There were no such things in the world, except for two things Jamie knew.

surely ."

why?

Bena asked at Jamie's murmur, but she wasn't in a position to answer.

His head was already filled with unbelievable thoughts.

As Jamie was still looking at the box, one of the movers approached him with a stiff face.

"Hey, little boy. What are you looking at like that?"

" ."

"Turn it off. Why are you bastards doing this here at night?"

The man tried to kick Jamie and Bena out, spewing harsh words about what was so uncomfortable.

But the man's attitude didn't matter to Jamie.

Rather, pretending not to know, he pulled the man's crotch and pointed to the box.

"What is that? The men were moving very carefully... ."

Then I asked with innocent eyes, and the man scratched his cheek and answered.

"That's the day after the auction Eight! What am I saying to the kid? All right, go home! Your parents will be waiting for you."

After saying that, the man ran to move the box again.

As the man left, Bena, who was next to him, said with a slightly disgusted face.

"Did you really have to ask me with that face?"

"The innocent face of a child is a pretty strong weapon."

A child's face with an innocent face is far more powerful than the saying that you can't spit on a smiling face.

see now

At first, the man who was trying to kick me out with harsh words didn't answer me kindly in a rather gentle tone.

"It's an auction item ."

It almost seemed like it.

From the fact that such a precious thing was being carefully moved at night like this, an illegal smell resonated.

"I think there was some magic in the box."

Even though he had no talent, he was a warlock in his own right, and Bena also seemed to recognize some of the magic in the box.

"At least three. At most six or more."

Yeah?!

"Keep your voice down. The number of sealing magic hanging on the box. I wasn't quite sure either."

Sealing magic is a way to lock it in the end. If you put several of those things, even the best wizards had a limit to reading them.

"Why the hell did you put so many seals on it?"

Yeah.

Jamie nodded and fiddled with Perfect Cell.

The vibration almost stopped as it moved away from the box, and now it doesn't move at all.

If the Perfect Cell pierces through several sealing magics and reacts to this extent, only two are expected.

'All Might or God Killer.'

All of them are probably the three major Shinigami that he used.

Strength entered the hand holding the Perfect Cell.

I don't know which of the two, but one of the three major gods was certain. It could be both, but the odds are slim.

'If both were in, it wouldn't have ended up as a vibration.'

When the three gods gather in one place, something special happens.

But nothing happened.

It wasn't blocked by powerful sealing magic. At the current level of human magic, it was impossible to stop it.

master?

"I was just trying to finish it at the level of seeing what it was like."

Apparently, I was directly involved in the auction.

The problem was money.

Earl Welton provided a lot of extra money, but it was enough to buy a snack or plenty of food.

It was impossible to compete in the auction house with such money.

'If I ask Siegfried, will he listen?'

The money looked pretty good.

But lending was another matter. It's unclear whether or not he'll be able to get the item with certainty.

Above all, if you borrow money, you have to explain a little bit about the three major gods... I didn't like that.

"Steal?"

But then he shook his head.

It was a secret auction. If it was enough to release the three major Shingi, it would be quite large. Will you be able to break through the security of such a place with your skills now?

It was obvious that at least a skilled person in the master class would be guarding it.

After Jamie pondered for a while, Bena, who was watching, shouted with a frustrated face.

master!

"Wow! Why is this guy screaming?"

"What is it!"

what?

"I think it was just the box, please tell me. Don't think alone!"

Ah.

Come to think of it, I was lost in thought and forgot about Bena.

Jamie dragged Bena to a gloomy place.

Because it was a story that shouldn't have leaked out in any case.

I put a safety device once more to prevent the sound from spreading by magic.

"Listen well."

Yeah. Prick your ears!"

Bena put her hands to her ears as if to listen carefully.

Jamie didn't want to see him look so bad, so he hit him with honey.

"Oh! Why are you hitting me... ."

"Just listen normally."

As Jamie spoke with an annoyed expression on her face, Bena nodded in tears.

"It looks like one of my gears is in that box."

" Are you excited? Is it like this one?"

Vena chinked on the perfect cell.

"Yeah, like this guy."

OMG. how? You said it was a great coincidence that you got it."

okay.

The gravestone of Warlock Ganon, who was sleeping in the Maya Trey Mountains.

If the blue dragon Maya Trey had not recognized Jamie, he would have passed without even knowing the existence of the Perfect Cell.

"Then you have to take it! What are you doing here?"

" idiot Will they stay still?"

Those who moved the box are not very important, but surely there must be an escort to protect the box besides them.

I don't know how good their skills are, but I didn't know what would happen if they made a fuss for nothing.

'Now, my skills are very vague, so I'm annoyed.'

If it had been the state of an archmage, I would have done it like Bena said, but it was unreasonable to do such an adventure with a 6th class.

"Anyway, I'm going up to a secret auction the day after tomorrow."

Ohh.

"But there is a problem."

money! Is it money?"

It's pretty quick in this part.

Jamie nodded her head.

Bena explained why the money was a problem with an excited look.

"Auctions dealing with novelty items would be quite large and would attract huge capitalists. There's no way they'll just see Shingi and pass on it. It's going to cost you, obviously, and you'll spend a lot of money. Right?

"Exactly."

By the way Then there is no answer."

Apart from the exhilarating explanation, there was no way to get the Shingi in Bena's eyes.

Because Jamie couldn't have the money to fight those big capitalists.

"If I borrow it from Sir Siegfried?"

"I wonder if there is such money, and even if there is, I have to explain Shingi to some extent. That's not allowed.

"Or stealing secretly?"

"It's not much different from the attack we had earlier. On the contrary, it was even harder."

"Are you asking the family?"

" It can't be either. You won't know where the money comes from.

Earl Wellton may come to arrest him.

That was the specification.

if not ."

Bena continued to worry with a careful face at the successive denial, and soon opened her mouth.

"What about that grandmother?"

grandmother?

"I am the owner of Ars Magna!"

Jamie's eyes widened, because she didn't expect Benna's name to come out of her mouth.

okay! There was Kiriel!"

Siegfried said that she was the greatest alchemist, the 8th class archmage, and a businessman with businesses around the world.

And when I think back to the conversation we had during the day, I can guess that she had a staggering amount of money alone.

If it were her, she would have had enough money to win a new pair at auction.

if there is a problem .

"How do I ask her?"

Will the stingy old man who has everything he needs do to his request?

"Anyway, let me ask you a favor! After all, you have to go down anyway."

" okay. You are right."

I don't know why Bena was saying the right thing, but they were all right.

"Let's go."

let's hit it once

So decided.

* * *

Kiriel was resting in the subspace he made himself. She was looking at something with sad eyes, with her seldom worn glasses over her nose.

It was a small frame with a picture of the child.

pin.

The child's name in the photo was Finn.

She rubbed the frame with her finger. There were a lot of hand stains on the frame, and it felt that much time.

Perhaps the main character in the frame had passed away quite a while ago.

"I miss you even more today."

put the frame down.

Even after a long time had passed, I could still vividly see the child running around in my head.

When it was time to sleep, the voice that was whispering in his arms drifted in my ear.

"But don't worry. This mother is going to see you soon."

Finn was Kiriel's only son.

It wasn't the child I gave birth to, but I raised it with love. But Finn fell ill.

I did everything I could to cure the disease.

He spent a lot of money and asked a bishop-level priest to heal him, but he failed.

I tried sweeping the so-called panacea, but also failed.

Even talented therapists have failed.

Although he had never told anyone, Kiriel even tried to ask the Warlock. However, the gnome was rather trying to devour himself, so he erased it from the world without a trace.

Finn was quickly weakened, and the last day was approaching. I still remember clearly what my son said at that time.

-Mom . I don't want to die.

Kiriel closed his eyes.

It was because of the memories of that day.

"But it's okay now."

Siegfried came today.

I asked him to retrieve the Heart of the Shadow Lamb from the upcoming secret auction.

I've spent plenty of money, so I'm sure I'll bring something.

'As long as you have the heart of the Shadow sheep, all the ingredients are ready.'

A material that can open a door that will allow you to enter the world of shadows.

It has been said since ancient times that the shadow world is connected with the afterlife to which souls go.

As Kiriel recognized for himself, there was a possibility that it was true to some extent.

It was enough just to have the possibility.

I've been collecting materials for a long time, and now I'm at a standstill.

pin. my sweetheart Wait. This mother will bring you back here."

For that purpose, he had businesses all over the world and invested heavily in alchemy.

At some point, he began to be called the greatest alchemist, but alchemy was only a tool to learn how to enter the world of shadows.

As long as I can meet Finn, it doesn't matter what happens next.

That was then.

Who is it?

Someone came to the Saint-Dermain branch.

When I picked up the magic ball and checked it, I saw familiar emerald-colored hair.

It was Jamie Welton.
