We were now moving to the old school building talking room.

"Long time no see, Mr. Fifi"

"... long time no see"

I greet Fifi again sitting across the street, suppressing feelings of deviation from expectations. Then she lowered her head, too, with a peck. Same emotionless face and voice...

"Why is Mr. Fifi in school?

"... I brought it because I finished repairing the magic item I was receiving my order"

Answer my question pale, Fifi. Speaking of which, I thought you were asking me to do that, and I see Magilka.

"Surely it wasn't His Royal Highness who delivered it? He didn't give up there."

"Her Royal Highness is not here. According to Mr. Fifi, Mr. Elizabeth has been caught doing official duties that Her Royal Highness tried to throw at him."

Fifi nods at Magilka's explanation.

(The princess is the same... the sight comes to my attention then)

I shudder brutally thinking of Emilia, who is iron-clawed and frozen and soaked, and that horrible witch who is running it.

"... I came instead with the life of Master Elizabeth. If something goes wrong, I want you to take care of it immediately."

Fifi says so, but I think the timing might be too good.

Is this coincidence? Perhaps Master Elizabeth could help us by knowing the prince's situation? No, I was terrified that it was the latter, just wondering if it was there. Sure, Elizabeth and the Queen seem to be in informal contact, so maybe she was consulted by the Queen.

Well, anyway, let's leave it to coincidence here to move on.

"It was just fine, Mr. Fifi. I need your help."

I just decided to use the help of this genius magician. Then, after finishing class in good time, Lady Rain returned to the talking room.

Zach is following you as well if you rendezvous along the way, but I'm kind of restless.

"Hey, Mr. Fifi, I'm listening to you. Thanks for coming all the way to deliver the restoration item."

Although in the usual tone, Lady Rain's attitude and movements had changed into missteps. The skirt was completely different from yesterday when he said he was restless, gracefully, and walking like a dancer. That's enough to make me fall in love.

"... hey, Lady Rayne is acting like a princess in a little while, what's going on?

Zach, who came to my side, listens in a fearful whisper.

I know how that feels. I almost deplored the horror of Dr. Amanda's mentoring so quickly that it changed.

And Fifi, voiced, is faceless but leaning his neck.

"... who?

Unlike us, Fifi, from a country where such courtesies are loose, is very rude, but he reacts so that he can nod, and asks us.

"You may not believe it, but I am the first prince of my kingdom of Ardia, Lady Rayforth. There's a lot going on right now, and I'm turning into a girl, and I call you Lady Rain."

Magilka answered Fifi's question on behalf of me.

"... transformed into a girl. Is that magic? No, if it's magic, it's hard to sustain. Then it's by magic items. From what I've seen, that circlet is suspicious"

That's an expert. I'm just going to look at it and see what's causing it. I was relieved to see in my mind the early resolution of this case.

"You're right. Because of this circlet. And I can't take it off."

Lady Rain looks troubled and leans her neck with her hands on one cheek. The trick was so adorable.

(Even the habit of manipulation in times of trouble has been corrected. Dr. Amanda, horrible person......)

"... of great interest. Can I see it?

Did the artisan soul catch fire, or the faceless Fifi approached Lady Rain softly without acknowledgment.

There was no reason to say no, and Lady Rain was turning her body toward Fifi, who approached her as she sat in her chair, and making an adult of herself.

And Fifi's 'appraisal' begins.

"... Sure, I can't take this off. In a way, it could be close to a curse."

"Is this a curse?

Lady Rain listens as she growls at Fifi's whining she said while looking at the circlet.

"... one obsession or the other? I feel like it. This is trouble."

"Can't you take that off?

I can't stand the cloudy and suspicious words of Fifi, which make me rush to conclusions.

"... I can't force it. I don't know what will happen. But it doesn't mean you can't take it off again, so I suggest you take it off the regular way."

"I don't know the proper way to do that. Is there anything we can do about it?

I ask even more for Fifi's answer.

"... I can't. I peeked inside a little bit, but this is fundamentally different from what 'we' handled. Good place to go down the road too. I can't call it a magic item. Stupid from me."

Fifi rarely started putting a kettle on someone else's work.

"It seems the students at this school made it?

"... of the school? Does that mean people?

"Ugh, yeah."

Without really understanding the intent of Fifi's question, I affirm.

"... Impossible. It's not a technology that can be used by students who are evil, people, and not experts."

The words made me pin.

(Sure, there was another presence in the notebook, 'that one'! It said that the person intervened and was quickly completed)

"Sure, there's another person in the notebook who helped make this item."

"... then the person may have made this"

I was in the mood to be distracted by this case, which came here and turned out to be new facts and was about to get more and more labyrinthine.

"Um... you've said from earlier that it's a bad way, a bad way, but has Mr. Fifi figured anything out?

Magilka asks the question instead that I am stunned.

"... eh, the encroachment during the outrage completely disregarding the magic technique, the theory, of the 'Demon Nation' I learned is applied to this circle. So such a strange effect became possible. But the devil is the devil."

Look at Fifi, who is emotionally insensitive but has been rapping, and I find her surprisingly angry.

(She's the scary type when you piss her off... I'm sorry about that.)

"Um, could you give us some more details?

You perceived Fifi's air, and Magilka prompts him to be frightened.

"... this is a technique called 'fairy prank'. An outrage that enables it with Merhentic logic that ignores both our theories and our common sense. The technique of" them ", which our magic engineers have taught us to hate."

"What are they?

I was the only one losing curiosity and listening back as everyone finally pushed silence on Fifi, whose slightly negative aura began to leak.

"... only one species can use 'Fairy Prank'. This involves' elves'"

As we were all stunned by Fifi's words, he said, "What the heck, hey, hey, hey, it's an elf. Ooh!" And there was me in my heart rejoicing.

"E...... are you an elf"

After a few minutes of silence, Magilka proceeds with the conversation.

"... eh, this is for sure. An important part of that item can only be made by an Elf Magician. Adding that its' fairy prank 'somehow prevents me from removing the circlet"

Elf magic engineer. I do recall that it was the Demons and Elves who were developing magic technology in this world. It was surprising that one of the two great magician engineers was carrying on this case.

Then the elves, like the Demons, are famous for not having much interaction with people. I couldn't hide my further surprise that the elf was in this school.

"Then it would seem nice to ask the school director if the elves were in the school. This is a big step forward."

To Fifi, who answers with certainty, Lady Rain launches the next course of action. Even the just forgotten school director will never forget the rare event that the elves were in the school.

We were just about to move on.

"I was wondering if there was an elf in school. Hmmm......"

In the clock tower, we headed to the dean's office, where we're checking with him to see if the elves were at the school.

The school director lifts his head to look at the ceiling with his eyes closed and a long beard.

"Um, there he is. I don't remember exactly when it happened, but the elves did. That girl turned out so pretty. Yeah, yeah, good style. Wow, guffoo."

School director who can do whatever he remembers. Apparently, the elves who came to this school are women.

"Why is the elf in school? Did the school director call you?"

After turning a chilling glance once, Magilka asks the school director.

"No, there's no connection to the elves in Non. She came all of a sudden."

"Suddenly..."

"Um, they're teaching their magic skills around to futuristic boys and girls on a wandering journey. I was wondering if you could hire me as a teacher for a short period of time. Even now, magic technology is not a lack of information for the people, and technology has become underdeveloped, so I am very grateful that you can teach me. Oh, sure, not then."

In the middle of the conversation, the school director got up and started fishing for a big crate and looking for something.

"Oh, there it is, there it is"

The school director takes one cartridge out of the crate and brings it to us.

When Magilka received the cartridge and checked the contents, she took a piece of paper out of the cartridge. When she spreads it on her desk, everyone gathers and peeks in.

"What is it, this?

For a few moments, Magilka, who checked the paper, asked surprised to look at the school director.

"I said it was a contract. I don't think I'd feel comfortable if I didn't sign a contract like this. I asked him to sign a contract or something to do anything. It's a little harsh, Gohon, but it's good to have a great passion for teaching and helping students. Really, it's beautiful...... Gufff"

School director who remembers something and can do it again. Anyway, you must have thought of her that had nothing to do with what you were talking about. It's probably unnecessary information for me, so I decide not to ask.

"Bye. Because I had a valuable experience meeting an elf. After she left, I thought I left the first contract I had with her in honor."

"Sure, there's an autograph for the school director. Besides, one more thing... is this the name of the elf? It says" Shelley. "

Listen and stare at the contract so Magilka can eat in, and start analyzing.

"Please be polite until the date of the contract. Now you know when the example developer will be."

More useful information comes in, and our investigation progresses in a frightening fashion. This also inspired me, Fifi. It was varied.

That Fifi, but he's not here. He said he would take a tour of Wang Du for a while and tour the magic crafts here. He was separated when we boarded the school director's office.

If I may, I don't want you to act like you're breaking the heart of our precious magician. She could do it unconsciously, so please.

Out of the question, this is how the investigation into the "Prince TS case" progresses, and if we find that Shelley Elf later, or "Me" from that period of time, we will also know how to remove the circlet.

(No, blush, blush. If it had been a little longer, the prince would have turned into a princess.)

I was more than disappointed at the progress I made in solving the case, but rather lowered my chest to that side.
