Continuity is the Father of Magical Power

First story, I need territory.

The class change test is over and we're off for a long time today.

Today, I was also going to do it at a fatigue party with Herman and Frank......

Last night, I had to reschedule abruptly because of my reading with Shelley.

(Good luck with the exam. How's it going for you both?

(Eh... I guess it was about the same as before)

(I am more confident than last time)

(Oh, that's good. You're going to be in the same class as the two of us in fourth grade.)

At this rate, I hope we're together until graduation... well, don't worry.

We're both hard-working people.

(You can afford first place in the school year. Is it full again this time?

(What do you think? To a boulder, maybe one is wrong?

Don't think I have about one careless smith. Yeah.

(You can afford to say that...)

(Oh, yeah?

(Well, fine. Besides, we both want to go a little farther from tomorrow for about two months, okay?

(Two months from tomorrow? Where? What do you do?

What are you gonna do with all your long vacations?

(I don't know where it is. Ask your father tomorrow. What are you gonna do, go check out Leo's territory)

(Territory? Ah, territory...)

Speaking of which, I was noble.

When I turned ten, they said they'd let me run the territory.

I'm eleven now, though.

(Is it Leo-kun's territory? That sounds interesting. Of course I'm coming. because I'm free)

(I guess I'm free, too)

Apologize to Frank and the others, will the fatigue party do after the results are announced?

(Okay. Well, I'll wait at the castle tomorrow)

(Roger that. See you tomorrow)

(Yeah. See you tomorrow)

(Yes, I'll see you tomorrow)

There is such an exchange in readings, and Leena and I are currently on our way to the castle.

Bell decided to take two months off to explain the situation.

You've been doing your maid's work with me for a long time.

A two-month break would be short.

By now, I'd be back in the orphanage.

"It's been a long time since Leo and I took a carriage. Since we first went to see Leo-kun's mansion, right?

"Was I? I miss you. How many years has it been since then? It was about three years ago because I just got into elementary school, right?

Speaking of which, you were on your way to the castle then.

"Was it that long ago?

"That's right. Oh, yeah, remember that promise?

"Promise? Did you promise anything?

"You forgot? Look, I promise I'll take Leena home."

Sure, you promised to cheer up Leena, who can no longer go home.

"Speaking of which... you promised me that. Did you remember that?

"Sure. I'll definitely take you."

I have to keep my word.

Besides, I've seen Leena's hometown.

"Thank you. I hope so."

That's what Leena said, and she laughed nicely.

"Yeah, expect it. Oh, yeah. Let's go even when we graduate from elementary school. If you can graduate in class S, you will also be exempt from the magic school entrance exam. We'll be gone in the meantime."

Sure, I think I was off for about six months.

You can use a metastasis on your way home, and you're going to figure it out.

"Huh? Is that so soon? How?

"That's what I'm going to think. Before I do, I have to graduate in class S."

If you can't graduate in S-class, you'll study for six months.

"Right. I get it. I'll study hard."

Then he arrived at the castle and was led to the Emperor's room for the first time in a long time.

I didn't have an uncle today, and Mr. Elise was in my room.

"Long time no see. How have you been?

"Yes. I was fine"

The emperor looks fine, too.

"That was good. How are you, Liana?

"Yes, I was fine too"

"Right. Then let me get to the point. First of all, Leo, this is the territory I'm giving you. Hard to find a territory worthy of your credit, Leo. Leo, I was going to give it to you when you turned ten, but it ended up today."

Was it? Well, it's hard to secure the kind of territory you suddenly give the Viscount.

"Was it? So, where's my territory?

"Oh, the place, the southwest side of the empire. It is one of the leading commercial cities in the capital, just as it is a relay point between the southern boardrail territory, the western Philibert territory and the capital. It's a city where people come and go, a city where travelers come and go."

Something tells me you're gonna get a lot more territory than you thought.

"Are you sure you can get such an amazing place?

"Oh, instead, it's a little narrow for the Viscount."

You mean you chose a place with good quality for the narrow minutes?

"Is that what you mean? Then I'm convinced."

Even if it's wide enough, it seems I can manage it, so I guess I'd rather that way.

"And I'll leave it to you, Leo, to put your hands on the territory or not. You don't have to do anything. I think a lot of money will come into you over there, Leo."

Unearned…….

"Really? Honestly... I'm not having any trouble with the money..."

You get a hell of a lot of money coming in from Mr. Elsie's store every month, don't you?

Besides, it's dorm life, and I don't have a chance to use it...

"Speaking of which, I hear you took over that Fermer Chamber of Commerce. Sure, there seems to be plenty of money. Then you won't be afraid to fail, and try something."

We're not taking over!

After everything I've done, the top just changed at some point.

Try something......

Well, do you want to do everything you can in two months?

"Right...... ok. I'll think about what I'm gonna do when I get over there."

"Oh, I hope so. Let me know what you did later."

"Okay. Stay tuned."

"Oh, and it's the name of the territory, but you can do whatever you want. However, the name of the territory will be Leo's family name. By the way, Muldeen is my current name."

The name of the territory?

I don't know what to do......

"Is that the name of the territory? It could be the same as before, right?

"Oh."

"Well, then, in Muldeen, please"

"Are you sure? That's gonna be the name of the family for the rest of your life, right?

"Oh, so is that...... But if I suddenly change the name of the city, the residents are going to be confused. And I thought Muldeen was cool."

Leons Muldeen...... well, you're fine.

"Right. Well, Leo, if you like. I'll send you some official paperwork later, so you can sign there."

"Okay."

"Two more months... but I asked for my daughter."

Oh, yeah. On second thought, I was also the princess's escort.

"Yes, I'll protect you no matter what."

If you're a man, I need you to swear this much.

Even if a bunch of dragons attacked me, I'd definitely let them protect me.

"That's reliable. Well, it's a safe place, so I don't think you need to worry about that. Oh, yeah, I have to give this to you. This contains detailed information about the territory. Keep your eyes open by the time you reach the realm."

That said, the emperor was given a thick bunch of paperwork.

Yeah, that's just right for a free run of travel time.

"Okay. Well, then, let me go."

"Yeah, you can try to run your territory, but it's my day off, so have fun."

"Okay."

Shelia doesn't rely too much on you, Leo.

"Wow, okay."

Nothing. You can count on me, okay?

"Then I'll be back in two months to report good results."

"Oh, I'm looking forward to it. Then go."

Then I broke up with the emperor and my uncle walked in from the front as I walked in the castle.

"Ah, Leo. Long time no see. Didn't you grow up a little bit? You're here to get territory, aren't you?

"Yeah, I am. From now on, where we're going"

"Well, I won't be seeing you again for a while. I miss you."

With that said, my uncle hugged me.

Is that it? Was your uncle such a character?

If I had thought of that, my uncle squeaked softly in my ear.

"Now you have many enemies. Never be alarmed for the next two months"

"To?"

I couldn't react because it was sudden and only had a weird voice.

"Oops. From now on, I have to go to His Majesty the Emperor. Then have fun with Liana and the princess."

"" Yes ""

"See you later"

My uncle left when I talked to the two of them, without worrying about me.

You got a lot of enemies for me? Can't we just stay alert for two months?

I'm too scared to go to territory from now on.

I figured I'd stop going......

Well, that can't be...

"In the meantime, shall we head?"

What's to come... yeah, I'll take care of it then.

I'm sure you can do something about it.

I decided to get away with it.
