As for Kirsch, we decided to provide escorts to ensure his safety. My guild also has a few specialized guild members to take on a covert security mission. Liza, who is in charge of gathering information, is one of them.

Put the contract in the safe in the office on the second floor of the shop and Verlaine starts removing the apron on the spot. I can't help it because the office also serves as her private room, but I'm too bold to look at it.

"... hmm? I just took off my apron. No way, is your husband going to order you to take it off while you're watching it? That's quite an interesting hobby."

"Well, I'd like to ask you about the mountains, but I'd rather talk about my work now."

"It's not cool... because I'm a dark elf, don't you find me attractive as a woman? Human men prefer white elves, but they're essentially the same race. The difference between worshipping the dark god and worshipping the light god caused a difference in skin colour."

"I know there was a reason for that. When the Dark Elves themselves tell me, I can't believe it."

"Fufu... that's the story of the age of myths. To be honest, we don't really feel that it affects our species today."

Verlaine folds the apron and puts it on her desk, and then tries to take off her headdress.

"... that means you can still love me? I've seen it, Master seems to be feeling a little better today because he hasn't drank yet."

"Well, I'm not always magically detoxified, either."

When you take off the white apron, it's only a black based dress underneath, and it suits you pretty well. Verlaine in the form of a white elf is quite clear, but this dress will look great in the form of a dark elf.

"But we got a pretty big request. I had no idea that a request to bet on the survival of the state would be brought in lightly. It's just what your husband did."

"Even if there are too many people who know it's not a normal guild, it's obvious... well, I almost want to cool off after this job."

"I think the Velveteens are going to move their soldiers, but what about that? If the enemy army is already in motion, we may need to make some flashy moves. It would be nice if I moved, but the master would have come up with a more appropriate hand."

"Verlaine has been away from the battle for quite some time, so I can't let him. Well, instead, it's really flashy, and the first thing I want to ask is that it's a lot more difficult."

Verlaine laughs bitterly because she knows who she's talking about, even if she doesn't give her name.

"That girl... she did all kinds of things for herself in Japan. That girl has created a new lake and turned it into a tourist attraction. There are a few other variable topography that remain intact." Walking Earth Mutation, "but why don't you rename the street?

"He doesn't know what to do... but it's all about aesthetics."

"Aesthetics... I don't hate people with that kind of obsession. It's my way, isn't it life?"

I didn't say anything impudent, but I agreed with Verlaine heartily.

"If you don't hear me, bring me back to the tavern. I'll help you with the entertainment."

"Oh, please. I hope you'll listen to me honestly, because I need to hurry as fast as I can."

Around now, "Walking in Heaven and Earth Mutation" is interesting. With that in mind, I'm going to leave the office.

"Does your husband take a friendship oath that he won't even marry Cody until he gets married?

"No, that's not true. I wonder why an apron in an apron dress is so fascinating to take off."

"Hmm... well, if that's what you think, maybe you can show me your attitude. Totally bad. Master seems to be more of a demon."

"Because they seduce people too grandly. I'm drunk. I don't know what to do."

"... after all, your husband is not a single rope. It's going to burn more and more... but you shouldn't underestimate me. This is still the ex-Demonic King."

I do not despise you at all, and I must consider returning the talisman to Verlaine eventually.

However, when I saw my excellent behavior as a shopkeeper every day, I was sure that I was beginning to think it would be a pity to return it to the demon kingdom.

◆ ◇ ◆

The next morning, I left the shop to Verlaine, and I went to Magic College in the morning.

Take a coach ride to Magic University in the northeast of King's Landing. The grounds are quite large enough to require a five-minute walk from the vestibule to the laboratory building. The campus is full of life as students eat outdoors and practice magic.

There was a general reception at the entrance to the laboratory building, where there was a receptionist. Since it seems suspicious that you are hiding your face, this place is usually approaching without hiding your identity. Even if I was named Dick, no one would immediately realize that I was a member of the Demon King Crusader. That's why I've lost my presence over the past five years. However, it is also my nature that I want to put in a fake and name it.

"Hello, is there anything I can show you?

A receptionist in a hat talks to me. With a uniform in the form of an emphasis on the chest, your eyes will definitely go there - it's called Miralka. Do magic college officials get nourished in the chest?

With a pleasant smile, you look young, but working here is probably older than me on the 18th.

"Duke Solver. I'd like to speak to Professor Miralka's lab in Attack Magic Department I."

"You must be Duke. If it was Professor Miralka, I was just sent to the library. Can you wait here?

"No, let me go directly. Thank you for telling me."

"No, thank you. Miralka has a lot of male customers, but they are mostly asked to pay in advance."

"Really... that. Then why did you show me around?

"Today, a young man with dark hair came to me and told me that I should guide him if he named me De."

Instead of "I want you to show me", "what to do" was what Miralka was going to say. And what were you going to do if you accidentally wore it with someone else?

"You said your voice was lower than it looks, so I'm sure... right?

"Well, maybe it's me. If you see Miralka again, tell her not to mischievously share her personal information."

"Yes, sir. I'll keep it a secret from me and Professor Miralka."

The receptionist laughs and pardons. Following that, a big chest shakes with a trail - the name tag on it says "Polo Marcott."

"I'm sorry if it's irrelevant, but don't boys talk to you meaninglessly?

"My job is to guide the outside world. I don't want to hear any of that."

Well, then, since I'm an outside person, I can't be guided again - not if you're nagging me. If Miralka found out, it would be fatal, so I decided to be more cautious.

◆ ◇ ◆

Enter the library of the Magic University, hear from the librarian where Miralka is headed, then head there. Miralka came looking for the materials for the attack magic and said she was on the east shelf on the second floor of the library.

Attack magic is all about borrowing the power of the Spirit, borrowing the power of God, and interfering with the reason of the world by drawing on the magic within yourself. My magic developed what I learned from people by myself, but the basic part is classified as a kind of magic that interferes with the world.

As she walked upstairs impressed by the number of books on the shelves, she finally found her purpose.

Miralka is staring at a book in a high position. Then I tried to stretch out and take it off, but I couldn't reach my fingertips just a little bit more.

"I wonder why I put a book in such a high place. You shouldn't leave books out of the reach of professors."

Miralka complains that she regretted not getting it.

When I approached her without noticing me, I pulled out a book that Miralka was about to take, and I offered it to her.

"Is this what you were trying to take?

"Eh... di, Dick. How long have you been watching this?

"I was just about to take a book. Isn't that it?

"... well, I don't have to say this is it."

When Miralka receives a book from me, she glances through it. After all, it seems that this book is good.

"Just because you're a little taller than me, if you take a book with refreshment, I won't review it that much."

"Now, I'll bring you a stepping stone. Or should I give you a shoulder car?

"Eh... hey, don't get on your nerves. Stand on your feet. I'll take off your shoes when you ride."

Miralka's biting hard, but I'm not used to it.

A young professor at the University of Magic, she looks like a student because she is 16 years old. The receptionist was the same, but she wore a hat showing her degree in school, and it suited her quite well.

"... I was hoping to come soon. Is there anything you want from me?

"Oh, Miralka, as a masked wizard," no. "Wait, listen to me."

It gets blocked before I tell you everything. Miralka stroked her golden hair while waiting for the book in a mood.

"That's an exception for Yuma. I hope you don't think I'll wear a mask if it's that easy."

"I know a lot about that. Miralka is really a friend."

"Oh, nothing comes out even if you wake up. I just thought it would be a little dangerous to keep Eileen as Yuma's guardian. It's no big deal."

The most dangerous thing is Miralka, but I can't wait to say it.

With her help, the first stage of the problem will be solved - in a magnificent way.

"... because you took the book, I'll consider it for a while. I still have to gather the materials, so you can get them for me. If you use Enhanced Magic, you can carry about 50 books.

"It seems difficult to strike a balance, but let's try it. Miralka, you're acting like a professor."

"Reading this book won't help me with my magic, but if I don't teach my teachers a theory, I won't be able to learn magic... ah. Take that blue cover book. Two books on the left, please."

Miralka doesn't hesitate to ask me to take books one after the other. But now it would be cheap if she were to listen to me.

After taking about twenty books, Miralka said with a soft smile.

"I'm glad you came today. It's hard to carry alone. Thanks, Dick."

"Eh... I see. He's the best."

…… What are you looking at? Is there something on my face?

"In general, you have beautiful eyes, nose and mouth."

"Even if they say such a natural thing now. Your face has human eyes, nose and mouth."

First of all, I was surprised that Miralka thanked me - but when I was collecting the material books with her in this way, I wonder if it seemed fun to me.

"Oh, speaking of which. Anyway, it's about Dick, so you saw the receptionist Pollon's chest, right? No, I told you to be careful, so I'll be on the lookout next time."

And in a second, I thought it was my fault. Duke Solver's exclusive presence in the university, and the widespread use of his name as an alert from women, is something we can avoid. I feel a little disappointed if it gets into Timmy's ear.

And I gave the librarian a book that was more than twice my height, and with my eyes peeled and surprised, I went back to Miralka's lab with a book that I had been authorized to lend. I feel it stands out without meaning, but I deceived myself because I can only take power.
