67 First story: Seeking magic equipment.

"This time, I reward the princess of our country, Shelia, for rescuing her. The reward is to recite the Viscount to Leons Forster, acknowledging Shelia's engagement to Liana"

About six months have passed since then.

I'm nine years old, and my freshman year is almost over.

My eyes around me have been amazing since the emperor announced Shelly's engagement to Leena.

I became the youngest and the Viscount, and I became famous with the envious man engaged to the princess, and no one among the nobles knew me.

At school, the position that used to be Shelley became me.

I mean, I'm surrounded by my classmates all day.

"Put me in the side room"

Like that.

"Put me down."

etc.

It was really loud.

Well, I can't stand it.

"Because I'm not looking for a sideroom or a subdivision! If we're gonna make this any louder, we're never gonna get along! ♪ When I say ♪

Nobody's been close since the next day, though.

It's peaceful now, like that.

At school, I'm often with Hellman and Frank.

Shelley and Leena and I are loud around and we only talk about the extent of our morning greetings at school.

For that matter, it's customary for me to play at my house after school.

Every day, I didn't do anything in particular, I talked to them, I helped them with their magic special training.

We've both been able to use unattributed magic in the last six months.

And Shelley tells her uncle that Leena teaches the Virgin her magic each day.

Each of them was asked to show achievements next time because the magic they were good at seemed to be improving with dizziness.

I saw those two, and I'm free too, and I wanted to be able to do something today.

I'm in the commercial district of Teito.

I've been thinking about doing an investigation into the magic fixtures I've been wondering about.

A magic fixture is something similar to the magic item I'm building, but completely different.

I'm the only magic item I can build, and I don't need to replenish the Demon Stone.

In contrast, magic fixtures can be made by anyone with skill, but demon stones need to be replaced occasionally.

A magic tool is like a convenient tool that runs on batteries in a previous life.

I guess the parable is that Demon Stone is like a battery.

It's like boiling water, brightening up a room, something that needs to be in this world.

I don't know how to make magic equipment like that, I'll remember it anyway if I'm free!

I came out of the house alone on holiday thinking something like...

Well, I don't need to because I can use creative magic...

I wonder if it would help anything...... and think.

Besides, I can spare some time.

Right now, I'm in front of the store where I want to be.

"Fermer Chamber of Commerce Head Office"

The Fermer Chamber of Commerce boasts a top share of magic fixtures.

The top one here used to live in my house.

There were so many people in the store that it was easy to see them thriving.

When I walked into the store, my beautiful sister handled it.

"Welcome... what about me, your father and your mother?

"No, I came alone"

"So, what can I get you? What did they ask you to do?

"No, nothing in particular..."

"Then go home. 'Cause it gets in your way."

"Oh, hey, I'll do the same........................................................................................................................................................................................................."

They let me out before I finished saying it.

"What the... Can you listen to me for a minute..."

"Oh, I don't know what I'm going to do... Look for other stores selling magic equipment around here..."

I sighed and began my walk in the commercial district.

"I can't find it anywhere!

I walked around looking for them... but there were no shops.

Apparently, the Fermer Chamber of Commerce is too strong for anyone to sell magic equipment in the Empire...

"What's wrong with me? Could you be lost?"

Could it have been loud?

Worried, a young woman spoke to me.

"Huh? No, you're not."

"Then what do we not see?

Actually, I was looking for a store that sells magic equipment.

"Magic equipment? Then there's the Fermer Chamber of Commerce right over there."

"No, I'm looking for a store other than the Fermer Chamber of Commerce."

"Other than the Fermer Chamber of Commerce? I wonder if there was anything else...... oh, there was one! It's a small shop on the edge of the commercial district. It's a hard place to understand, so I'll show you around."

Seriously!?

"Ho, is that true? Thanks!

Thus, I was probably asked to show my sweet sister around.

Well, assuming this woman's people are even me for kidnapping purposes, I'll be fine.

"Right here. Look, that old little store."

In the direction pointed by the woman...... there was a thin dirty shop that would convince me even if I was told it was already crushed.

"Oh, is that it? Ok...... thank you"

Is that really open?

"No. Bye."

That's what the woman said when I bowed my head.

"All right, let's go in... Hello!"

I pushed the heavy door and went inside.

"Hmm? What, you?

When I went inside, a tough old man seemed free, growing a beard that was likely to be described as craftsman.

"Uh... can I have a look at the magic equipment?

"Hmm? A customer! Oh, how many months has it been?

"Oh, you haven't got so many customers?

You don't want to stop for months.

Oh, my God, how's life?

"Oh, nobody's coming. Well, you can handle it."

The shopkeeper was very optimistic about my concerns.

"Oh really..."

That sucks...... are you okay shopping at this store?

"Everybody's going to go to Fermer's... but you came here, not that way?

"Uh... I went over there and they kicked me out because I was a kid"

"What!? I would like to… The Great Chamber of Commerce is very important to select customers…"

"Uh... can I see your magic equipment?

"Whoa. What kind of stuff are you looking for?

"Uh... not that there's anything in particular..."

"Right. Then you can watch as you like."

"Thank you"

Well, then, let me take a look.

Looking at the products lined up in the store from one end, the interior of the store is as dirty and dusty as it looks.

The product is kept in a mess and I'm not sure what it is.

I dusted and pulled out what was in front of me.

"What is this?

I asked as I showed the shopkeeper the black sphere.

"Ah? This is... sure, the one where dark magic is used and you just get sleepy watching"

"Heh? Can magic equipment do that too? So, what's this?

Now I took out the white sphere and asked.

"This is holy magic being used, you can relax watching"

"Ri, relax...... no other magic equipment can say this is awesome?

"Well then... how about this? With thunder magic, it's a stick that comes to the brisk when you touch it."

That said, the shopkeeper pulled it out and showed me the stick the tip was beeping about.

"It... what can it be used for?

"Uh... well, yeah. How about a massage or something? And... give me the output and I'll be a weapon."

"S, Stangan...... this store, you keep all the crappy stuff... what about this box?

"When you open it..."

"Wow!"

"It's a surprise box with flames popping up. I'll make it cheaper now."

"Oh, it was dangerous... I almost lost my forehead... that's a hell of a surprise box..."

"Not so much."

"I didn't praise you!

"There's other thunder popping up and water popping up."

I've said that and put out a lot of similar boxes.

"Yeah, I don't need any of them. And... now I know why this store isn't selling."

"You don't need it... I thought I'd finally get my money in... Huh? Why isn't it selling? Well, I'm sure it's Fermer's fault."

"No, I'm sure there is, but more than that, this store is way too bad"

"Ah? That my store is terrible!?

"Yes. Dirty shops make it difficult for customers to get in. I don't know what the product looks like when I go inside. I tried the product and the injured person appeared. This is why it's so bad."

"Ugh... Damn... I can't say it back..."

I knew it myself.

"So, there's one suggestion"

"What?

"Can you teach me how to make magic fixtures?

"What? Why? How does that involve selling stores?

The shopkeeper roughed up his voice.

"If you can tell me… I'll try to change this shop"

"I see..."

The shopkeeper laughed niggly.

"So, can you tell me?

"Right... apprentice... yeah... well, I'm free anyway and I think I've been tricked and I'm gonna get on with it"

"Is that okay? Thanks!

"Oh, because instead, my guidance is strict, huh? Don't run away on the way, okay?

"Don't worry, I'm used to Spartan instruction"

There won't be any sparta to beat Grandpa and Grandma.

"Right. Then come here tomorrow morning."

"That's... I can't do it in the morning except on my day off because I have school"

"School? You, how old are you?

"Huh? I'm nine."

"School at nine...... that means you, nobleman!?

"Yes, but?

Is there a problem?

"How could a noble child be walking around like this alone!

"My house is loose."

Well, I'm in charge.

"Huh? Which nobleman the hell are you... Speaking of which, you hadn't heard the name yet. What do you say?"

"Ah, it's Leons Forster. Call me Leo."

You were rude to beg for teaching without a name if you ask me.

"Well... isn't that the house of the brave! Well, I'm convinced of something... Leo... then I'm Holland. Call it what you want."

"I understand... Mr. Holland... Master!
