Vol 3 Chapter 59

Chapter 59

s.h.i.+n can’t keep his mouth shut

This was the worst situation possible.

Somehow the t.i.tle of “Magic King” which I wanted to avoid was given to me by Uncle Dis during the decoration ceremony.

If he declares it in such an official setting, It will spread throughout the Royal Capital in the blink of an eye.

When I take a walk through the city…

“Oh! Magic King!”(insert)

“Kyaaa! s.h.i.+n Magic King-san!”(funny)

“King of the Wizards… Truly appropriate.”(names)

Whenever someone calls out to me, “Magic King” will be attached to my name.

“I can’t even walk outside anymore…”(s.h.i.+n)

“I used to be really shy when people talked to me but I got used to it eventually.”(Sicily)

“I don’t want to get used to it…”(s.h.i.+n)

“But didn’t you get used to the team name almost immediately? You’ll get used to your t.i.tle before you know it.”(Sicily)

Sicily sat next to me and smiled.

Sicily is as warmhearted as ever even when she’s worrying about me. She really is a good girl…

“Well now Sicily, you’ve tamed s.h.i.+n perfectly haven’t you?”(Melinda)

My Grandmother was grinning while I was soaking in Sicily’s kindness.

I forgot about Grandpa and Grandma…

By the way, Sicily is living casually in our house since returning from the Rittenheim Resort.

Like that she started chatting and getting along with Grandpa, Grandma and the servants.

Before becoming my bride, she has to get accustomed to living with the Walfords so this is like an extension of the vacation.

She also sleeps over. However my grandmother’s surveillance is… (Kaelpie: Grandma needs a hobby…)

“Oh? But i had no such intention…”(Sicily)

“Don’t worry about taming your husband. The marriage will be happier if that’s the case, don’t you think?”(Melinda) (Kaelpie: coughcoughdivorcedcoughcough)

“Indeed! A different s.h.i.+n! Such a thing would be…”(Sicily)

“Oi, can you not create a plan for my future?”(s.h.i.+n)

“Not at all! We aren’t…”(Sicily)

“My Grandma’s jokes may be misunderstood so please don’t listen to her.”(s.h.i.+n)

“Kukuku”(Melinda)

“Don’t worry, Grandma, I’m just kidding”(s.h.i.+n)

I quickly replied while patting Sicily’s head.

“Auuu… that’s right.”(Sicily)

“Ah ha ha, you’re so innocent”(Melinda)

“Ho ho ho, but with this trouble will never leave you alone.”(Merlin)

As Grandpa said, after the decorating ceremony, no one in the team can walk around casually

When we walk through the town defenselessly we get surrounded.

“It would be good to teach them Gate as soon as possible.”(Merlin)

“Well… Maria told me that a lot of men called out to her recently, and she is getting fed up with it.”(Sicily)

“Our names are famous so perhaps they only approach her to take advantage of that… I hope she has been brus.h.i.+ng them aside…”(s.h.i.+n)

“Looks like it… However because I’m with s.h.i.+n when I go outside it’s all ok…”(Sicily)

Sicily said that while being slightly embara.s.sed.

All right… Sicily won’t go outsde alone anymore.

Because Sicily’s reputation in Swedes reached Earlshyde, there are many of those who wors.h.i.+p her as a saint and ask fo

r help.

If she goes out to the city by herself, she will be immediately surrounded and asked to salvation.

Not only that, but it seems that there are people who consider that to be insolence, so I had to escort her in a different sense than before.

Although.. I don’t think there is anyone that can do something to Sicily as she is now…

Many people think they can do something by force under the impression that she is a saint… Guard investigator Orto taught me that during a recent visit. (TN: The guy who figured out Stromm was behind the Cart incident)

But I can’t go outside anymore either.

Whenever I go out, I always go out with Grandpa or Grandma.

There seems to be a group of people who want to involve us in crime… somehow I’m busy rounding them up.

“They think they could do whatever they wanted if they somehow got you on their side, because you can slay a devil… Those types are beyond saving.”(Orto)

He warned me to be careful before he went home.

All the more reason to teach everyone Gate.

“At any rate… The people’s expectations of s.h.i.+n have grown…”(Sicily)

“After all, it’s become like this”(s.h.i.+n)

The whole team has the power to destroy devils, but only I got the t.i.tle of being a Magic King.

As a result, it became a trend of “not fearing devils”.

When I questioned Uncle Dis about it during one of his visits, he said something surprising.

“That’s fine, we have told the officers to tell their soldiers, it’s only the Ultimate Magicians who can defeat devils”(Dis)

“Were they convinced with that?”(s.h.i.+n)

“Once we told them that they need the ability to subjugate disaster-grade demons by themselves in order to defeat devils… everyone was immediately convinced.”(Dis)

Come to think of it, May said something about disaster-grade demons being trauma inducing machines to the military…

Even if they can’t imagine the power of a devil, they are fully aware of the horror of disaster-grade monsters.

“But what about the Three Power talks? It might have an impact on them…”(s.h.i.+n)

“You don’t have to worry about that. The negotiations may certainly prove to be difficult, but we want people to think that the devils are not a threat. Remember it’ll be bad if a country has a worried atmosphere.”(Dis)

“…Information manipulation?”(s.h.i.+n)

“You know some difficult words, don’t you?”(Dis)

I understand what Unlce Dis is trying to say.

But I was worried because it may affect the Three Power talks.

“The negotiation with the countries is my field of expertise, you don’t worry need to worry.”(August)

“…”(s.h.i.+n)

Uwa… Really…

“What is it?”(August)

“No, no.. nothing…”(s.h.i.+n)

“…I’ll question you later, just leave the negotiations to me. We’ve already completed several simulations.”(August/Lelouch)

“Is that so?”(s.h.i.+n)

What are we planning to do? Will the information gathering go smootly? It is a country that is said to be a major power after all.

It was rea.s.sured by the royal father and child Uncle Dis and August, so from here on I judged that it wasn’t my area of expertise, and I won’t worry about it any more.

“By the way… what did you say was wrong just now?”(August)

“Nothing’s wrong.”(s.h.i.+n)

“Spit it out!”(August)

“It’s nothing!”(s.h.i.+n) (Kaelpie: August is turning into a mom)

“After that, I was scrutiniously questioned by Gus…”(s.h.i.+n)

“Fufu, s.h.i.+n reacted exactly as i expected. I almost lol’d.”(August)

“When Elly finds out about this, it might become something troublesome…”(s.h.i.+n)

“…”(Elly)

“No way… You already know…?”(s.h.i.+n)

“Er, ummm… That…”(August)

“…Hey”(Elly)

“Ehe…”(August) (Kaelpie: Error 404: Dialouge.exe not found)

“Ehehe… It’s lovely isn’t it! What the h.e.l.l are you doing!”(Elly)

“Kyaa! I’m sorry! Honest! …Ah! It tickles!”(August)

“This guy! It’s not funny being in his shoes is it? Will the dust settle?”(Elly)

“Ah, sorry”(???)

“Huu… Fu… I’m sorry”(August)

“Ho ho, your relations.h.i.+ps are on good terms”(Merlin)

Several days after the decorating ceremony, I went to pick up everyone who couldn’t openly walk outside and gathered in one of the schools laboratories.

“How should i put it… It feels like it’s been quite a while…”(Yuri)

“I think so too, seeing as how our daily lives have been since the start of the summer holidays…”(Olivia)

“Now then, I’d like start to teaching Gate right away, is that okay?”(s.h.i.+n)

“Anytime!”(Rin)

Rin replied right away unable to wait, because she was looking forward to this day so much.

“Well then sit down and I’ll explain Gate.”(s.h.i.+n)

When I said that, everyone sat down obediently.

“I a.s.sume you’ve seen Gate many times now so you know what it does?”(s.h.i.+n)

Everyone nods simultaneously.

“First of all,I’ll start with the image to activate Gate, but this is how I imagine it therefore it may not fit everyone so please adjust it for yourself.”(s.h.i.+n)

After the intro, I draw point A and point B on the blackboard.

“Well, first of all answer this question: How can I get the shortest distance from this point A to the point B?”(s.h.i.+n)

“That’s simple. You go straight from here to here!”(Alice)

“Bzzz “(s.h.i.+n) (TN: He’s imitating a quiz show buzzer. Idk why the others know what that is.)

“What?!?”(Alice)

When I told Alice’s answer was incorrect, a commotion broke out immediately.

“What is the shortest distance if not a straight line?”(Maria)

“What is this? A riddle?”(Thor) (Kaelpie: Imagine hearing that one from the Sphinx)

“Hmm… I don’t understand it at all”(Rin)

Everyone quickly gave up.

“Well… I guess it would be hard to figure out if it’s on a blackboard…”(s.h.i.+n)

“Why on a blackboard?”(Rin)

“Well then, why don’t you write it on paper?”(s.h.i.+n)

When i said that everyone wrote two points on a piece of paper and started to worry about this and that.

“Raaah !Enough already! I don’t get it!”(Alice)

“Well everyone? Do you surrender?”(s.h.i.+n)

“I don’t get it at all”(Rin)

“I’ll tell you the answer, but don’t say it’s sloppy. This is my image for Gate.”(s.h.i.+n)

Everyone’s eyes became serious to my words.

“The reason I said it was difficult to arrive to the answer on the blackboard… Is this.”(s.h.i.+n)

I hold the paper and fold it in two. With that… Point A and point B stick together.

“This paper is s.p.a.ce, and when I fold it, point A, as the place I’m currently at, and point B, as the place I want to go to, the distance between them will be zero, which is the shortest distance…”(s.h.i.+n)

Then I pierce the overlapping points with a pen.

“This hole is Gate.”(s.h.i.+n)

When I looked at everyone, some had an agape face, some understood, and so on.

“Such an idea… I never would’ve thought of it”(Tony)

“Certainly the shortest distance is as he says… You can’t reach that conclusion on the blackboard.”(Mark)

“I see. I get it now.”(Rin)

“Do you understand the image?”(s.h.i.+n)

Everyone did a large nod.

“And, based on this image, when you start magic to open a Different Dimension Storage in two different places…”(s.h.i.+n)

A Gate appeared in front of my eyes and connected to the back of the laboratory.

“This is the image for Gate and it’s activation method.You can’t use it unless it is a place you’ve already been to because you can’t imagine where you want to connect to. Well? Does it seem possible?”(s.h.i.+n)
