CH 59

「Soft breeze.」

Upon Rofas-san’s command, wind began blowing inside the storage.

「It’s a wind magic stone. Cancel.」

The wind stopped at his command.

A-amazing!

If there are wind magic stones, then a fridge made of wind and water…

「This is a small magic stone, so it’ll last about half a day. I’ll leave some extras behind.」

Eh? It only works for half a day? Then it’ll be impossible to have a fridge that activates it endlessly then…?

Ahh, that’s too bad. I guess I have to learn how to use magic so I can make ice…! It looks like the magic stone alone isn’t enough to get on the path to a fridge!

It was now the next day.

I woke up early because I knew that Bryce-kun was going to leave today, but…

Mm, rather than feeling sentimental, I was more curious about the explosions coming from outside.

I went to wash the rice in a pot and then filled it with water. Thirty minutes from now.

I headed outside to see what was happening.

A giant fireball was flying towards Rofas-san.

「U-uwah, it’s like Dragon Balt !」(*1)

People who know about the series would probably tell me that I’m wrong, but that’s the only thing I can relate the giant fireball to.

What was it, the southern islands, um, the name of the great king, umm, his name was…?

Kame, kame, um… (*2)

「Kame, what was it…」

「Hm? Kame? What’s that? Is it yummy?」

Eh?

I just noticed that Kurtz-kun was standing beside me.

「Good morning, Kurtz-kun.」

「Good morning, Yuuri-neechan. So, what’s kame?」

Um, how should I put it…

「There’s a children’s story from my hometown, and it has the name of the magic that Bryce-kun is using, um, it’s also the name of a great king who lived on the southern islands. It’s called Kame-something, but I can’t seem to remember it…」(*3)

「Ehh, it has the name of a great king in it? That’s so cool!」

Uu.

I couldn’t tell him.

The great king from the southern islands was more of a cheery existence than a cool one… And that the name was used for the attack in order to generate laughter, due to gag manga getting popular during that time period…

Kurtz-kun’s eyes were glittering.

「That’s so cool, Bryce-niichan. You can use magic that has a great king’s name in it. You’re amazing.」

Ahhh, I’m sorry!

「So, Yuuri-neechan, do you remember the name of the great king yet?」

…Maybe it would be best if I don’t remember it. If the words kame and ha became popular in this world, I don’t think my heart could take it.

「I’m sorry, I don’t remember what it is…」

「Oh, okay…」

Kurtz-kun hung his head in disappointment.

Uohh, I’m sorry!!

「I’ll tell you if I remember what it is!」

Uugh.

As we were talking, Rofas-san dodged another fireball and jumped up about four meters off the ground.

Amazing!

He came down at Bryce-kun with his fist.

「T-that’s, An Pun- 」(*4)

Oops, I shouldn’t go there.

I covered my mouth.

「What? An Pun??」

It’s the name of the special attack of a certain anime character aimed towards young children. I watched it many times with the two cute children.

I wonder if they’re doing alright. They’re probably going to stop watching that anime soon, and move onto hero shows instead. If they graduate from that too, then… I wonder what they’re watching now. I shook my head slightly.

I’m sure they’re happy. I was shocked that they were basically taken away from me… But their real mommy is a kind-hearted person, and she’s working really hard.

She is probably a much more wonderful person than I am, just as my husband said…

I shook off those feelings, and looked forward.

Rofas-san didn’t exactly resemble the anime character from the children’s anime, seeing as he was incredibly muscular.

Yeah, even if he did the same pose, it wouldn’t suit him at all.

「Hey, what’s that? That thing you just said?」

Kurtz-kun looked at me with his glittering eyes again.
