Kenshi o Mezashite Nyūgaku Shitanoni Mahō Tekisei 9999 Nandesukedo!?

The Kingdom of Fallleon is a rich country with a population of about two million.

Owing to its enormous agricultural productivity and well-stockpiled cereals, there has never been a large-scale famine in recent decades.

There are also many excellent adventurers due to the Royal School of Adventurers, and the damage caused by monsters is less than in other countries.

Not only on a scale, but also at a high level of security and culture, it is said to be an ideal state.

Above all, the most gratifying thing for the people is that 'taxes are cheap and there is no hunger'.

Unless this is Bre, the kingdom of Farleon will have nothing to do with the popular uprising.

Such a queen who governs the kingdom of Fallleon.

A great woman who garners respect, not only domestically, but also from other countries.

Emeline Greda Fallleon.

There were undelivered people napping in Her Majesty's office like that.

Of course, there's only one person on this earth who does that.

He is a great wise man.

"Here, great sage. It is the Lord's freedom to take a nap, but why come to the concubine's room? That couch is not a bed."

"'Cause my students are gone from school on winter break, so I'm free."

The Great Sage, complained to Her Majesty the Queen, answers as she falls asleep on the couch.

It doesn't look bad at all.

"Why should a concubine go out with the Lord in his spare time..."

"Isn't that nice? Even His Majesty doesn't seem free. Besides, I just take a nap. Harmless, harmless."

"If you just want to take a nap, you don't have to be here. Besides, if you're that free, don't put your concubine back where she was!

That being said, Her Majesty the Queen stuffed the Great Sage.

Anyway, Emeline Greda Fallleon is originally an adult woman over twenty years old.

The Great Sage magically turned it into a nine-year-old.

At first I did it with half the fun, but it suited me besides my thoughts, and my reputation around me is good, so I keep it that way.

These days it has also been known to the surrounding countries that 'the Great Sage has turned the Queen of the Farleon kingdom into a child', so they will proceed without any trouble in the diplomatic arena.

"I'll get it back to you one of these days ~"

"Your Lord always says," One of these days, when will you come? "

"Come on... don't worry about it. You can live longer when you're young."

"Mmm... Lord, did you do this magic to prolong the life of your concubine...?

"It's not like that... but maybe it is."

The great sage thought a little and then nodded small.

It's the first time I've noticed it since I was told, but I did want Her Majesty the Queen to live longer.

That's what magic can do to force you to extend your life.

"Hmm... it's not like I want to die prematurely, either. Thanks to being a child, has my life span been extended for more than a decade or so? Well, I have no business hurrying back to being an adult, so let's just stay this way for a while. But you are a wise man. No more... no more."

"I know, I know."

I don't need to be told.

Extending or reducing a person's life expectancy at will, that's what the Great Sage has power for.

But that would not be permissible.

Even now, the Great Sage has fought the temptation to abuse his power.

The great sage, who possesses immense magic, never ages. I've been alive for nearly three hundred years, and there's no sign of death.

So the people I know die one after the other, putting aside the Great Sage.

I can do it if I want to increase people's life expectancy.

But if you really do that.

The Great Sage decides on a person's life expectancy because he likes it or dislikes it.

When that becomes normal, I'm sure the Great Sage will not be able to be human.

So the Great Sage, no matter how lonely or uncut he was, didn't do anything to unnaturally extend his life, no matter how much he loved them.

Well, occasionally. As I did to Her Majesty the Queen, I've cheated for about a decade.

That's all.

They all died like humans.

No one will live the same time as the Great Sage.

One day, I wish someone would show up who would live as long as the Great Sage on his own.

Whatever life you just break up with...

and.

The Great Wise Man felt sinking into the gala, at that time.

"... hey, big sage. What's with the blurry chest?

Without needing to be pointed out by Her Majesty the Queen, the Great Sage also noticed.

It's not only glowing, it's slightly warm.

"Maybe..."

The Great Sage put his hand in his clothes and pulled out a pocket watch that was always hanging from his neck.

Then the entire pocket watch glowed pale and had heat. It's like a person's temperature.

"Whoa. That pocket watch, was that such a suspicious magic item? You're not gonna blow up or anything, are you?

Her Majesty, who saw the light emitted by the pocket watch, lags anxiously behind.

The Great Sage took the chain off his neck and looked down at his pocket watch.

This light is undoubtedly due to magic.

But there's no sign that it's going to explode.

Nevertheless, I didn't even know why my pocket watch suddenly started glowing, the owner, the Great Sage.

"It's okay. Maybe."

"Ha, maybe!?"

Her Majesty became a gnawed face and hid behind her desk.

"I just wanted to say you don't have to worry so much... but I'll leave you in the dimensional warehouse just in case"

"That's good. I can't stop if you put me in trouble here. Take it back to your house and take your time."

Her Majesty put only half her face out of the shadow of her desk and said coldly.

A flimsy word, but this is the royal palace.

It's a big deal if the building just breaks down a little.

The Great Sage is thought from around to be a ruinous character, but has no taste in destroying people's homes.

So I suddenly tried to go home with a pocket watch that started glowing.

but.

"Coming -"

I heard voices from my pocket watch.

It was the voice of a girl I had never heard.

"I'm coming - there's an enemy coming to destroy people."

The light overflowing from the pocket watch grew stronger, and it reflected a statue of something like a slide machine.

But not on the wall, but in the air.

The light, whose focus was blurred, eventually became the shape of a person, creating a statue of a human girl with thoughts of a mid-teenager.

No.

It was not a statue that the light reflected, but rather a presence that only seemed to be an entity, and stepped down to the floor (,,,,,,,).

White skin. Long silver hair. A neat face.

Tuba's wide black triangle hat. Black robe.

Looking at the girl, the Great Sage feels as if he's looking in the mirror.

"Hey, what... were you also the Great Sage, Lord, and Hidden Child?!?"

Her Majesty pampered her mouth like a goldfish, comparing the girl to the great sage.

That's how similar they are, even from others.

But no matter, the Great Sage doesn't have a daughter.

My family died a long time ago, too.

Then why are they so similar?

Who is this girl?

Why was it in my pocket watch?

And more than anything.

"Please, a strong man of this era. Fight the enemy with me.

What is her "enemy"?
