Chapter 59. Dia Reki (1)

After I went to the royal capital to recruit the Dwarf Blacksmith, I openly took a leisurely break with the excuse of relieving my travels.

Normally, I secretly hide and goof around, but it's also special to rest openly for a cause.

What's the difference?

This profound difference is unknown to anyone but a professional slacker.

“Arel. It is meal time.”

I was sleeping for a long time when I heard a low voice in my ear.

When I open my heavy eyelids, a female sorceress with a slightly languid impression is looking down at me.

“Ah... Diaya?”

“Meal time.”

Right.

Apparently, he woke me up for lunch.

“Meal time.”

Why are you saying the same thing twice?

Are you going to eat anyway?

I woke up feeling hungry just in time, so I should eat.

“Ahhhhhh? Is it meal time already?”

After all, time passes quickly if you are leisurely.

“Shall we go to the restaurant? Dia. Please ask me today.”

“yes.”

Dia nodded and waved her wand slightly as she cast a spell.

Then I felt my body rise, and my upper body was raised automatically.

Dia manipulates my body with magic and moves it.

Originally, it was a light object or a simple magic that floats oneself or the other person, or the result of my own theoretical guidance in line with Dia's meticulous barut.

This meticulous way to raise my body instead made me different.

It is the completion of the perfect daily life auxiliary magic.

‘... It's comfortable.'

After all, the feeling of being wrapped in magical power is similar to floating on water.

I think I might be addicted to it.

“I want the clothes, too.”

“yes.”

Dia gave a short answer and additionally manipulated the clothes to change me.

The sight of clothes floating in the air and clinging to my body would probably be quite bizarre for a third person to see.

“???? wow.”

As evidence of that, Kania-nee, who was standing in front of my room, was exclaiming with the feeling that she was very awake.

His face seemed to be full of words he wanted to say.

“sister? what's the matter?”

I still float by relying on Dia's magic, waving to my sister and asking.

“Ah nothing... no...

Noona hesitated and then shook her head.

He doesn't say anything, but if you look at his older sister's face, you can clearly read what he's thinking.

Even if you don't know what's going on, you must be thinking that you're going to wake up.

Why is that?

If you don't say anything, it won't be a big deal.

At best, it would be a question of whether to destroy another training ground or not.

“ah. Will your sister eat too? Let’s go to the restaurant together.”

“... in that state?”

what condition are you talking about?

I took a look at myself.

clothes? changed perfectly.

I never thought I could tidy up even the hem of my clothes so meticulously with pure magic that manipulates objects.

Dia good job.

I gave a thumbs up and Dia gave a thumbs up as well.

In the meantime, even the messy hair had been perfectly arranged.

It's perfect that he takes care of you even if you don't give instructions!

“Very good workmanship!”

When I praised her, Dia smiled silently and spread her shoulders.

However, in real time, Kania noona's eyes get colder and colder.

Are you hungry from a lot of morning training?

At this time, I had no idea why my sister was reacting this way.

Today's lunch is a stew with braised lamb and various vegetables.

Same menu as Kania noona.

However, the amount is three times more than mine.

And Dia is standing still and not moving as if she's beside me while I'm eating.

Originally, there are things that go against the etiquette and Dia always assists me.

For that reason, although it is a little exceptional case, Dia is allowed to be here unless it is an official event.

“???? yes?”

I responded that I didn't know what I was talking about at the unexpected point, and the female knights, including my sister, explained the reason for today's meeting seriously.

* * *

Diareki.

Among the 12 wizards recently hired exclusively at my estate, there are only two of them in class 4, and they are female wizards who serve as my exclusive attendant and escort.

And lately, it's my older sister's concern.

“Is there anything wrong with her?”

When I asked while looking at Dia, she had a blank look on her face as if she didn't even know herself.

“Is it possible that Dia is doing things dishonestly... or something like that?”

“no. It is not.”

My sister denied the allegations.

Even if I think about it, D.A.'s work attitude is the pinnacle of diligence, and she does her job meticulously enough to make me want to stamp her with a job well done.

He always silently follows me and helps me with my daily life, and when I review the reports posted by the wizards, he always stays by my side and doesn't show his displeasure, even explaining the basics meticulously.

It's literally perfect in the sense of a magical assistant.

“Isn’t it okay then?”

“...Yes, there is no problem up to that point.”

It's just...

“Don't you think it's a bit excessive?”

Yes, Dia diligently follows me and works.

Yeah... he kept following me.

Where does it go too far?

“Arell you these days! Do you even walk on your own feet?”

“Hmm? When I go to the bathroom, I go to the toilet.”

I answered immediately without hesitation.

Even so, I wouldn't go out of my way to the point of making Dia follow her to the bathroom.

I can see what I can see.

ruler! how is it!

“wow??????

Kania noona made an expression of being truly fed up.

“That is too much.”

In the end, Asha shook her head and helped out a word, perhaps to take her sister's side.

“Is it too much?”

“Hasn’t Arel-sama been living by relying only on magic lately?”

Even Seina... pointed me out.

Wasn't my grip on people's hearts only this much?

“I don’t think this is the case either.”

“I was just pursuing a convenient life, right?”

Apparently, they seemed to be taking issue with how I was living a comfortable life supported by Dia's magic.

“But it is convenient.”

“There is a degree of convenience. Worst of all, it doesn't look good. Every time I see Arell-sama floating in the air, I am startled.”

Is it that much in the eyes of others?

When I made eye contact with Dia, she said no with a wink.

“Are you okay?”

“It can’t be!”

“It can’t be!”

“That's not it!”

All three shouted at the same time.

“... There is also a problem with Dia's attitude. Even if it's Arel's assistant, it's too much. Who in the world follows you to the bathhouse and serves you with magic!”

In the end, Asha also raised her voice, as if her patience had run out.

Their complaint seems to be that I rely too much on Dia's magic in my daily life.

“Isn’t Arel working too hard on Dia?”

“I don't think it's that much... but

if someone hears it, they'll misunderstand.

I've never squeezed Dia's magic to that extent.

In the first place, this level of labor is not a big deal for a 4th circle wizard.

Since there is no wastage of spells, mana consumption is also low.

More than anything.

Dia is free on holidays, right?

It is only on weekdays that I rely on her magic.

“Above all, it doesn’t look good. Now, he only goes around inside the castle, but if he does it outside too

, “Ah? I can't do that.”

At Asha's concern, I laughed lightly and denied it...

“... No, that's okay too.”

“Arel-nim!”

“I'm kidding.”

Seeing that their complexion is immediately dyed to an earthy color, it looks really ugly.

Ugh... is that too much?
