60 A Place Called The Magic City Ist



"Ha ha. Hey, Katie? No, you can't. If you get busted."

"Nyah!"

Direct flight from White Rose, Magic City Ist. Ein is on that water train, boarding a noble vehicle.

We went to the Majolica Demon Stone Store and got a lot of information from Majolica as well as proceeding smoothly to the preparation of the references and the magic props we would need.

We received a magic prop for three and were to go for the magic city at a party of three as planned.

... Yes, the three of us were supposed to be on our way.

"I think that's enough...! Because it's already in the car! So stop treating me like a cat!

This is exactly what happened.... a waste cat has overheard information about going to a magic city.

That has caused a lot of fuss in the last few days and, at any rate, we have no magic equipment for her, making it difficult to hide herself. That's what I was thinking, Arrowhead, Ain suggested a bit of a silly animal treatment.

"Bullshit!... Ah, that's good. I'll rub it a little harder."

Let's not talk about it anymore, let's treat it like a big cat, not a ketsy. That's what I suggested.

Get into an aristocratic vehicle as a pet for a big cat to avoid finding out with Katima. Not particularly uncomfortable! That's what Ain thought.

And Ein starts stroking Katima's neck. So delightful looks exactly like a cat.

"If it was broken there, I'd be a complete cat already, okay?

"... Ha!? It's not good!

"Oh, please be quiet both of you..."

Chris sitting in a nearby seat complains. Speaking of Dill, who is also nearby, all I could do was smile subtly when I saw Ain doing the hair repairs and Katima being done.

"But a fish snack from the service of an aristocratic vehicle. You looked delicious."

"You know what? I'm a snack."

"I see. It's like it's not moving..."

Katie, by the way, is a pseudonym. It's just an easy name to pull out the "ma" from Katima, but, well, it would be better than not.

That brings us to four party members to whom Ain and the others are headed. Katima came as a pet frame to escort Chris and Dill, including Ain. She could not ignore this opportunity as a researcher.

"And this magic trick is handy."

"Dear Ein. Not as many craftsmen as Mr. Majorica, are they? He's one of the best in Ishtarika..."

"Oh, so much (...) But...?

"Even so (...). Yes."

affirm with a gentle sigh. Even as Chris, I don't understand that sense of fashion. Katima, who was listening to the two conversations, begins to get mixed up in that topic.

"What effect does it have in the end? I didn't ask for details."

"Eh. Mr. Chris?"

"Yes. From what I've heard, it seems to make consciousness" mildly "misperceived. So it doesn't work for demons and magicians."

"Nha? Going to a magic city doesn't work for the magicians?

Katima thought the question was the best, going to a magical city, but if it's easy to find out, it doesn't make any sense.

"I think it's probably pretty much all right because of the rating among Majorica that he's a good one. It's his job."

"... if you ask me so. Indeed. I'm convinced."

Among Katima, Majolica is highly regarded. Magic props made by Majolica are also commonly used in the castle, and even many are placed in Katima's lab. Given that, I don't think he's the one doing the half-way job.

"Dear Ein, by the way. Was Master Katima really allowed...? I heard from my father that it was difficult."

Dill was still worried about Katima even when he got here. No way. Actually, hide... is there anything wrong with that? and. At the time of the Sea Dragon case, Dill, who had done something close to 'runoff' with Ain, was calmly thinking about it.

"It's okay, Dill. But instead, Katima spent the reward she was going to get."

"Ho, is that a reward...?

"Really? The Book of the Demon King that Ein created while he was asleep! I was going to take that reward from your father. Put that in this magic city! I managed to make him admit it. You put the reward on hold, and you were right."

I see, and nodded Dill.

Katima was going to get a reward from Silverado, and Katima was going to make a huge contribution in this case, and Katima was going to spend it on purchasing new research magic items.

But I came down this time.

From a standpoint, Katima can't easily leave the King's Capital. When it was easy for her to get there, the port town of Magna was set as the limit.... Actually, Katima is also, this is the second time she's taken to a magical city, and she hasn't been out many times.

That's why I hit her straight into her desires.

Katima is a famous researcher. For example, people who would be able to participate in national projects like the White King and serve as team leaders. That's Katima von Ishtarika.

Because she is such a girlfriend, a city with new technologies like the Magic City is a place where you want to take a trip at all costs.

Back to the story, Katima's launch feat is by no means a small one.

In a short period of six months, it was the result of research that I spared while sleeping, using all the handouts and knowledge I could possess.

If I had struck up so much merit, Silver would have had to admit to accompanying me to this magical city as well.

"Looking forward to it."

Unlike any other time, Ein and the others continue on their journey to the Magic City with some fashion katima to put on their pets. There's still a long way to go, it'll take half a day at any rate.

We left Ishtarika in the evening, so the time to arrive in the magic city of Ist is near 7: 00 a.m. Of course you will get some sleep in the car, this aristocratic vehicle has about six rooms. It would be the number of rooms including the lounge where they are sitting right now, but because of this I was able to rest one person at a time in my personal room, so I felt comfortable.

While he was on a journey that included important tasks, Ain's vehicles were surrounded by soothing air.

I would like to thank her for having Katima, which made it more of an air of relaxation for everyone and without overstuffing her.

And then Ain woke up. He seemed thirsty and had a hard time sleeping.

When I glanced at the clock placed next to the bed, the time was just around 2: 00 p.m. A little over three hours will have passed since I got into bed.

"Wow...... ah. You want to go to the lounge?"

Ain woke up and headed for a drink in the lounge. As a service, aristocratic vehicles are even available for many drinks and snacks. It was just a vehicle with quite an expensive price, and the service was full.

Open the door and exit into the aisle of the vehicle in which Ain and the others rode. Noble vehicles have entrances and exits installed per vehicle, and travel between vehicles is not normally possible. Looking out the window, I could see the dark scenery but also the flickering lights.

Running right now seems like an agricultural zone, and the lights are probably because the farmer's people are awake. Looking at the crops spreading across the vast grounds, he gazed at one end of Ishtarika's national power.

Having enjoyed the view for a little while, Ain heads to the lounge remembering he was thirsty.

"... that? Dear Ein, what have you done?

Unlike her usual on duty, Ain was greeted by a firm, soft smile. Without turning on the big lights, the brightness leaking from the outside and Chris' appearance, which was illuminated by small indirect lighting, went with her beautiful appearance and felt somewhere fantastic.

"I'm a little thirsty. What about Mr. Chris?

Chris was sitting in a small bar space.

Not in armor as usual, on a sleeveless sweater, Chris in tight pants. Her good style brings out that fashion goodness, accented by beautiful blonde hair.

In Chris' personal clothes, which I don't see much, Ein kept looking at Chris for a few breaths more than usual.

"Actually, so am I. Would you like to join us, if you don't mind?

Chris in private clothes is still different than usual. Even if I take one smile, it's full of unusual charm, and even if I look at the glass in my hand, I feel something colourful about the movement of that finger. Even the long, thin legs assembled under the table add to her current charm.

It never means Chris in knighthood is unattractive. But maybe this Chris is her original charm. It's not weird to think that way.

"I guess I'll be next door."

"Yeah, of course. I'll get you a drink."

When Ain sits next to Chris, Chris stands up in the wrong place and goes to prepare Ain's drink.

By the way, what Chris was drinking was hot wine, warm wine. Couldn't she sleep either? I think about that.

"What will Ein have to drink?

"Mm-hmm. I like tea. We only had cold tea, right?

"Yes, it is. Please wait a moment."

In such a slightly stylish bar, a beautiful blonde sits next to her, but the man asks for tea. I thought if I thought of that in my head, I wouldn't look too dressed up. But I can't help it, I'm not old enough to drink, and now I just have to put up with it.

Shut up and enjoy the atmosphere. And enjoy the conversation for a little while with Chris, who is usually hard to see. That's the best part.

"Thank you for waiting, yes please"

"Oh, thank you"

She shows up from the side and leaves a drink in front of Ain. Fluffy scent from Chris' neck, her sweet scent is just a little hateful.

But I don't know anything about Ain't like that. Chris, sit quietly back next to Ain't.

"... This is the first time I've actually had the opportunity to talk to Ein, and I think so."

Chris takes a glass with hot wine in it and talks to Ain as he sees it. If you look at her face on the side, it feels a little redder on her cheeks than usual if it's because of the alcohol in the hot wine. You look like you put on a cheek red, not bad.

"Speaking of which, you are. I've had a lot of opportunities for the two of us to act, but I don't think this is the first time we've taken our time..."

Lights by magic props surround the space where Ain't and the others are. Its lights, which by no means use real flames to brighten them up, but purposefully recreate swinging flames, were instrumental in creating a calm space.

"It's been years.... since Ein and Olivia picked you up"

"I miss you. At first, you saw Chris, and you got on guard."

"Hehe... you did. As a matter of fact, Dear Ein, the story of Ein standing to protect Olivia is an anecdote of a reputation among the Kingsguard Knights."

"Holy shit, what's that..."

When Chris rode Princess Olivia and went to the port town Roundheart, he arrived on the spot with several Kingsguard knights. Even though the air they were emitting was never such a substitute to withstand one child, Ain stood in front of her to protect Olivia without fright.

"Honestly, the Kingsguard knights were also trying to figure out what kind of child Ain was like. Even though Olivia sent occasional updates to Ishtarika, I still don't know if I'd actually met her."

"Well yes...... so?

"Dear Ein, that action has spread to the entire Kingsguard knight since the first day we arrived in Ishtarika, and has become a reputation."

"I'm a little embarrassed..."

Chris laughs when he sees Ain looking shy. Ain and Chris were immersed in old memories as they were.

—— Well. As we talked, the two drinks were gradually running out, too. Finally, I see the bottom, and I feel it's time for this conversation to come to an end.

"... hey, Dear Ein"

"Hmm? What?

Chris kept his words to himself like he couldn't even say a few words. Atmospherically, it's going to be the last topic.

"In the future...... K, will you marry Master Krone?

"... What!?

Ain't been able to answer Chris' words I didn't expect, just to look surprised. Why did Krone come out? And why have you asked me about my future? I don't know what Chris is thinking.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I..."

Chris, who turns red and takes care of it, waves loudly, 'No, I'm not!' It appeals to me.

"It's nothing. I'm sorry...... it's such a time already! You should get some rest, too, Ain! Then I am now......!

"Hey, hey, Mr. Chris!

"Good night, Dear Ein! I'll pick you up in the morning!

Chris, who looked panicked, did not wait for Ain's words to come after him. On her way home, I can peek at her slight personality around putting back the glass I used.

"... what the hell, suddenly"

The leftover Ain was just staring in the direction Chris had left. After a few dozen seconds or so, he drank up the remaining tea, put the cup back in, and then Ain also went back to his room.

Chris said that when he returned to his room, Ain't come by mistake and never opened the door. He was breathing a little less calm as he put his back more on the door.

"Ha... ha... but already. I... what are you talking about?"

I don't even know why.

But I thought so. I was wondering if Ein, who joined Krone, would ever act with herself as before? If it goes away, if you think so... somehow the loneliness has crept up.

When it was getting brighter outside, Chris came to pick up Ain as if nothing had happened.

Seeing Chris as a knight and behaving as usual, Ain't somehow hard to ask about last night.

From then on, nothing in particular happened, four people gathered in the lounge for breakfast and the train arrived safely to the magical city of Ist.

What surprised me when I went outside was the station amenities. Ein and the others had tickets to use the noble vehicle, but there are demonic props that pass through it at Wangdu Station.

Ein, who likewise thought he would pass a ticket-like magic fixture and get out of the station, but the idea was torn apart in an instant.

"... I didn't even think there was that"

"Demonic props to be implemented in White Rose soon. Is that convenient?

"I realized how amazing the magic city is"

I didn't see the ticket. There was just an area with a thick black line drawn on the ground, and as I passed through it, I got a used print on my ticket.

As it turns out, he just walked out.

Ever since I went outside, it's been all the more surprising. Purely, to another city from the king's capital, Ain is blinded.

Streamlined objects everywhere in town. In the middle of the city, a large watch stand is installed. If you describe the atmosphere of the city in color, the sky is blue. The shades of the city are often used as intermediate colors between blue and purple. It's a bustling city, unbeatable to the king's capital.

There are uncornered, streamlined trains running everywhere. I guess that's the magic city's own water train here. Although the mechanism itself may not be the same as a water train.

"Now, Dear Ein. There may be many things to be concerned about in the ist, but there are many days of stay. Shall we start by arranging an inn?"

"Oh yeah. Then we'll have to find it from the inn."

The number of days Ain and the others are scheduled to stay here in the magic city of Ist is roughly two weeks. In the meantime, the four of us are going to act, but we have to prepare the inn first. Forget that, it is important as a primary goal because it will not be tolerated as the King Prince that he will be staying in the wild all over town.

Ein agrees with what Chris says and decides to start there first.

"Dear Ein. I've been here about four times with my father. For this reason, I know of an inn that also offers rooms for aristocrats, so if you don't mind, I'll show you..."

"Ain't got to do what Dill says! I want to get out of town!

"Yes, yes... bye, Dill. Can I ask you to show me around?

"I understand. This way, then."

Dill seemed to be a little familiar with the city and decided to leave the inn guide to Dill.

Chris had also been here to the magic city of Ist, but he didn't know much about those things, so it's just fine that Dill knew about the inn.

The three followed Dill to the inn.

Thanks to Dill, I was able to arrange the inn lightly. Ain't a line that started doing subsequent appointments up front.

The next place I went was at an institute, written in Majolica's letter of introduction. that it is attached to the school, the entrance will pass through that school. The name of the school is "Ist Grand Magic Annex School" and the name of the institute is "Ist Grand Magic". I was mistaken, but apparently it was the school that was created as an annex to the institute.

When it came to the destination being here, Katima showed her most excitement of the day. Something tells me that the institute is a place where top talent gathers even in Ist.

"I'm sorry. I need to talk to the lab."

Chris talks to the guard and begins to look for instructions.

"Hmm...? You're an adventurer? That's unusual, do you have a reference?

"Oh, I have it. Do you mind?

"Come in and take the straight path. Then you see a big building, so that's the lab. There's another gatekeeper near the entrance, so you just have to hand him a reference."

"Got it. Thank you."

The story went smoothly and Ein and the others were able to enter the school grounds. As the guard said, a short walk saw a large building. The building, which stands surrounded by a school, is made of beauty, as if it were a small castle.

Two gatekeepers approached when they perceived the four approaching.

"... what can I do for you? Adventurers."

Neither Chris nor Dill is wrapped in the armor used by the Knights of Istarica. I'm wearing my own gear, and I look like an adventurer. The magic props made by Majorica also seem to be working well enough, and Prince Wang doesn't seem to have found out he's here.

"I have a letter of introduction. I was told to hand this to you."

And Chris handed me the reference that Majorica made for me.

By calling me an adventurer, are you on any alert? I feel that my attitude is not very gentle.

"... let me rephrase the contents. Sorry, adventurers often bring fakes. I don't want you to be offended."

There are adventurers everywhere who think about handiwork and bad things. That had also come here to Ist on occasion, and there were many examples of attempts to enter the institute with disguised references. Laboratories with lots of valuables become gold.

"Hey, hurry up and get the chief professor."

"What...? Are you the chief?

"Don't worry, I'll call you soon!

One gatekeeper, I guess, is a junior or a rookie. A gatekeeper who had spoken to Chris gave instructions and made him go get the chief professor.

"(What's a chief professor... he's a pretty great guy. How could such a person...?

It is not impossible for Ein to wonder. Katima is such an authoritative laboratory. I didn't think it was until the chief came.

"Excuse me Guests, I'd like to wait a little longer...... Huh!

"Oh. I don't mind."

Ein replies that he doesn't mind a gatekeeper with a completely different attitude.

Then after a short wait, a gatekeeper and one old man rushed towards me from the lab.

In a long rush, even in the long run, I could understand at a glance that he had come in a great hurry.

"Ha... ha... but I'm sorry! Sorry to keep you waiting. Uh... you guys...?

"I'm suddenly sorry. I wanted to check something out, and let me ask you something."

Ein labors the man he thinks is the chief professor who appears in a hurry.

"I'm sorry, etc. and... it's outrageous. Guests like you are important even to us......!

Listen to that word, why does Ein matter? That was all in my head. But the answer will soon come, in Ein's previous life, the words of shock that would have been in the top five were conveyed.

"... No, no way. What is the introduction to 'Professor Emeritus Majolica'? I also read the references. If there's anything we can do to help, we'd love to help."

—— Professor Emeritus, so...? That pervert...... the honorary professor of one of the premier institutes Katima also admits......!?
