127 Lesson 10 Next Plan ①

It had been two weeks since the orphanage had been built and the orphan problem in the slums had been solved.

I don't see any kids sleeping on the streets anymore, so they'll be fine for now.

Bill and I are honestly living in an orphanage.

Now I'm interested because I'm working hard on my studies, swordsmanship and magic, respectively.

Well, I guess this is due to Anne and Camilla and the others.

Then, the recruitment of the gendarmerie began and the security of the city began to improve little by little.

So let's move on to the next plan.

"Mr. Flair, you're free to use where the Dark Market City was, right?

"Huh? Oh, yes. I'm fine...... what are you going to do?

Yeah, I knew you wouldn't have a problem using it.

"Trying to make the most of it. So I'm going."

"Whoa! Learn more…"

Before Mr. Flair finished saying anything, I moved to a certain place.

"Okay, here we are. Probably supposed to be off today..."

With that said, I was coming to a mansion in the Empire City.

"Yes. Ah, Master Leons. What's the matter, sir?

Ringing the bell, one butler came out.

"I'm here to see Mr. Elsie. Are you there?"

"Are you Chairman Elsie? If you're the chairman, you're off in your room because it's a holiday. Shall I let you know?

Oh, I'm here. Good.

"No, that's fine. It's not good for you to come all the way out of your room, or I'll go to your room."

Because this house is huge and it's hard to get from room to here.

I've been here a few times, and I know where Mr. Elsie's room is.

"Okay. Well, I'll go ahead and tell the chairman."

"Oh, nice to meet you."

Speaking of which, I didn't tell you anything first...

Well, it looks like the butler's gonna go ahead and tell him, so is he okay?

Then I slowly headed to Mr. Elsie's room and knocked on the door.

Concon

"Mr. Elsie, can I come in?

"No! Don't come in yet! I'll open it when you're ready, so just wait a little longer!

"Ugh, yeah. Okay."

When I knocked, a loud voice flew in, so I let go of the door knob I grabbed in a hurry.

I'm sorry. After all, you should have contacted me first before you came.

Then a while later.

Gacha

"I'm ready... Contact me first if you're coming already!

Mr. Elsie, who is sweating, opened the door and complained with a disgruntled face.

"Excuse me, I'll be careful this time"

"Well, fine. So, what's wrong with coming to see me for a long time? If you suddenly think you stopped showing your face, wouldn't it be awful not to come for a year? I missed you so much, didn't I?

Oh, speaking of which, you weren't here that much anymore... you should have come once in a while.

I feel terribly sorry for Mr. Elsie, who looks really sad.

"Oh, I'm sorry...... The school has become a dormitory life..."

The truth is, I left Belle, Shelly and Leena alone, and I couldn't get here, so what...

"Yeah, I know. So I gave up, too. But when the school went on a long vacation, Leo wouldn't come."

"Oh, I'm sorry...... Busy with territorial management..."

I've been to the territory since my day off...

"That, too, I know. For merchants it is no exaggeration to say holy places. Muldeen. You became the lord of the city there, didn't you? I also know you're busy. But! Then you can count on us extra!

"Ugh, yeah......"

Is that it? Was Mr. Elsie of this character?

I haven't seen him in a year, so maybe he just remembers, but wasn't Mr. Elsie any more important?

"If it's our chamber of commerce, bring it to the development of the city, right? Because let's make Leo-kun's city a city full of magic equipment on one side?

"Huh? Oh, yeah...... There's something Elsie would like to ask you..."

"Is it true!? What am I supposed to do? Make sure you let me hear it!

Hey! Let me talk to you, too!

Well, then, you can't explain anything.

"Ugh, yeah...... Then I'd like to explain it to my master too, and let's go to his shop."

Once I explained to Mr. Elsie, I was going to ask the masters to do the same, but I decided to ask my master for help because my bones were going to break in the explanation.

"Okay!

When I offered him my hand to make the metastasis, Mr. Elsie shook it with both hands with pleasure.

Really, did you have this personality...?

"Master!"

"Hmm? What's that voice!?

I arrived at my master's shop and when I called my master, a master came out with a surprised face.

"Long time no see!

"Oh, you! Get your face out!

When I greeted him, he approached me with great momentum.

Happy to see your apprentice's face for a long time?

"Excuse me. It was dorm life..."

I made the same excuse as Mr. Elsie.

"Hmm? Hey. Hey, come here. Elsie, it's a little bad. Just give me a minute."

"No, it's been a long time. Enjoy your time with just the two mentors."

When the master suddenly grabbed hold of me, he asked Elsie for some permission before taking me to the back room.

"Oh, um... what's going on? And... did Mr. Elsie have that personality?

Because it was just the two of us, I asked what bothered me.

"That was your fault."

"Huh?"

Because of me?

"You... Why didn't you show your face for nearly a year?

"Uh... it was dorm life"

"That's not true, is it? You, every holiday, we find out that you were doing a request for a beast girl and an adventurer, or playing with a girl in the Imperial City."

"Huh... Huh? Why..."

The words that came out of my master's mouth were too shocking, and I didn't get the words out right away.

"How do you know? That's because Elsie had her men look into it."

"Huh? Mr. Elsie?

Mr. Elsie was looking into me?

"That's right. You went to Elsie's house for a while, didn't you?

Was I going through?

Oh, you mean when I was teaching you creative magic...

"Yes...... Even so, I was just teaching you creative magic, right? Oh, what's wrong with that?

"Oh, I'm going to tell you anyway because if we were going to have a conversation, we'd find out... Elsie, I totally fell in love with that one. To you."

"... Huh!?

Is Mr. Elsie in love with me?

"So I was dissipating the stress of the unfamiliar chairmanship by being with you... You suddenly stopped coming, didn't you?

"Yes..."

Something... I can read the story...

"Then Elsie went crazy. I haven't interfered with my work, but I'm starting to use my men for personal use... Mainly, I was letting you find out what you're doing right now..."

"Is that what you mean..."

So, you knew about me?

"And you've asked me to invent the magic appliance I have."

"Duh, what kind of magic equipment is it?

I'm scared!

"It's a magic piece of paper that captures the view you see."

"Huh? Lying... Ka, it's the camera..."

The magic equipment I was going to ask for.

"Oh? Could you have come up with the same thing? You know, I had a hard time making it."

"Huh? Did you make it?

You're lying, aren't you?

"Oh, it's taken me six months to make it. Not long after I discovered I could do it with light magic."

Or suck. This guy is a real genius.

"True, the master is amazing. So, what about that magic appliance?

"Oh, now Elsie has it. They're letting your men take your picture..."

"Huh? And you stole..."

Well, I can't talk about people either.

A rat came to mind on my head.

"Hmm? You, you've been to Elsie's room, haven't you?

"Yes, I do, though?

"Then you didn't see it?

"Hey, what?

What did you see (...)? I was scared earlier.

What the hell does that room usually have to say!?

"A lot of your statues lined up and your paintings painted with magic equipment."

"Yes, no... I haven't seen it"

My statue? Oh, my Figia made with creative magic...

Speaking of which, Mr. Elsie, you also made my figurine the first time you used creative magic...

That there was a lot of that lined up...

"Right. You hid it."

Yeah, it's hard to get me into a room in the street.

"Did the master see it?

"No. People told me."

"I see..."

By this I mean someone who has seen...

Maybe he knew about that butler or something.

So I guess you headed to Mr. Elsie's before I did.

"Well, as for my advice as a master..."

What's your advice?

"You deserve it. I left my hands on it. I left you alone. It's your fault, so do something for yourself."

"Well, of that...... where's the advice?

Hideous! You're a master, you can help me!

"You've had enough. Anyway, I mean, make up your stomach. Anyway, he's found out he's got his hands on a bunch of girls, so no reason to cheat or anything, right?

"Well..."

It's true, so I can't say anything back......

"You mean your over-freezing behavior came around this time. Well, wouldn't Elsie be somewhat better off if the stress was relieved? Look, show me the man."

That's what the master said, slapping me in the back as much as he wanted to be a basin.

"Yes..."

Stress......

We need to work something out.
