Life in Another World as a Maid Mage

Adventurers Guild Tris is just a few days away. Adventurers, who were always busy away, spent their leisure time in the conversation room.

At the end of the year, it seems that everyone is busy preparing for the New Year's holidays, and the number of requests will be exceptionally small. Busy again two or three days before and after the cathedral's New Year's Eve event. Until then, there will be sparkling requests for escorts and gathering.

That's why at the Tris branch in the gap right now, everyone is squandering their time in their own way. It seems that some adventurers who wait in their hometown are returning home to spend time with their families and friends, but some of them use this leisure time to hold workshops, etc., which is rather more lively than usual.

Today, a sewing class was held by women in the corner of the conversation room. The main students are the new boys. The women who serve as lecturers are taught to repair basic cracks and buttons and repair tears, and are doing their tasks.

Toby, who lives in an orphanage, also sat in one of the seats and worked on the issue. If you are willing to take the Adventurer Registration Exam, you will be able to participate in a special space even if you are not enrolled.

"This is it... this is it. That's right, you're good."

"Ok, it was easier than I thought."

"Uhh... maybe I can't..."

Late in the morning. The corner of the Alliance crowds with cheers and moaning festivals from young adventurers.

--I thought it was a woman's job to sew and stuff. Even in the orphanage, the nuns seemed keen to teach the girls, but the boys spent that time helping with hard work and teaching simple carpentry.

But for adventurers, sewing skills are not a necessity... but it is a good skill to learn as much as possible. Fine contamination of clothing on the expedition can lead to death. It is said that there are many unexpectedly cases where tears and meltdowns can be caught in battle or become a factor that hinders concentration, causing serious injuries and loss of life.

Trivial adventurer business. It is rare that you lack concentration because your clothes are torn, but it is better to pick anxiety buds among newcomers.

However, because some people are not good at it, they were also taught "first aid" using fasteners, bandages, etc. Men seem to know better around here, and Alec and Clement were acting as lecturers.

Those who cut through their sewing skills early on are taking this course, but many of them are aimed at two talented people who enter the Tris branch with five fingers, and the two who were looked at by the boys with admiration were smiling bitterly with half the illumination and confusion.

Looking sideways at his future colleagues, Toby turned his gaze to the neighboring Theoli.

Silky, glossy black hair worn by the noble daughter, smooth skin with butter melted into the milk, long eyelashes bordered by obsidian pupils, small plump lips with always soft smiles.

(It's cute... I'm a little older, but it doesn't matter.)

When the far eastern tribes visited the orphanage, they were uncomfortable that the immigrants had come to see the orphan in half the fun. However, as I was telling the story with the rare technique of a live movie, kneeling to the young children's eyes, talking to each other, holding her up while being forced, and watching her perform a new story - the feeling of yearning quickly changed to yearning.

Gentle, gentle and nostalgic. Someone who can reach out and envelop you if you want. I heard rumors that there was a reason, but she always smiled without giving it away, and she looked terribly attractive.

I thought she was the ideal woman. A woman like this is better for a wife. It didn't take long to think so.

--If there was a priest, he would have discovered that what was underlying it was an affection for a mother who broke up with her when she was young, but Toby didn't realize it.

Anyway, he fell in love with this woman named Shiori and decided to ask her wife that she was still single.

To do this, we need to build some standing and earn more. Don't let her pretend to feed her husband by mistake. Men are worthy. A former orphanage buddy who already had an independent family said so.

After raising his heart to the shelf and turning his gaze to Ellen, a sister-like beauty as depicted in the picture, and the boys surrounding Nadia, the owner of the handcrafted piercing and splendid limb, Toby turned his gaze back to Ciori.

Though different from Ellen and Nadia, Theori is also an attractive woman. The evidence also has circles around Ciori. Toby, who was occupying the seat next to his adventurer-registered predecessors, focused on the last finish of the stitching, the ball clasp. At the end of the stitching, the needle that came out of the fabric was held down with the index finger and thumb, and the thread was wrapped three times and pulled out.

"Yeah, you're good. Though I seem quite used to it....."

Although the seams are loose and look slightly bad, the overall performance is not bad. Rather a good one. Theori smiled, saying that it would be enough to treat him on the expedition.

"I heard you needed it for an adventure, so I practiced. The nuns taught me."

I see. But you didn't have to take the course. "

"Hmm, that might be true... but I was wondering if there might be a way for an adventurer to do it. It's hard enough to learn. I was worried about your first aid."

Thanks to my participation, I was able to give away your portable sewing tools. It was a shame that Theoli wasn't back, but the retired adventurer left it behind, which was used and familiar to Toby's hands. It was as if I inherited the will of my ancestors, and my heart bounced with that feeling.

Besides, I sneaked up on Alec's hands-on lectures as he advanced the needle and learned that the first aid technique was not easy.

"I'm so glad you came..."

Toby scratched his head awkwardly when he inadvertently confessed that he was distracted by the sewing class.

Theoli giggles.

"Hmm, I didn't get much praise for the extra findings... but I do remember what's on the other side. It's not a bad thing to have a wide field of view, so focus on where you need to concentrate and use it properly."

Good luck.

Toby nodded forcefully, encouraged by the words of his followers.

The air surrounding them is warm. Toby thought it wasn't a bad atmosphere. I think that if we shorten the distance in the meantime, it will turn around eventually.

"... and yet... you're really enthusiastic. I've been there many times before, listening to people, borrowing books, getting ready."

Muna

Hehe, Toby smiles while rubbing under his nose.

"Stand on your own now."

Toby, an orphan, has no place to go if he's an adult and leaves the orphanage. If we don't lay the groundwork for life quickly, we'll either be living on the streets or looking after the poor homes. That's why children from orphanages are desperate. Even if Dean Jesus returns to life in trouble, he will accept it, but the world is not very good. Naturally, it is a facility made up of bona fide donations.

Rather, the Tris orphanage, which has strong patronage support, is quite privileged, and some people are expelled early if they reach the age of 12 and can legally work without reaching adulthood in small, individually-run orphanages.

Toby doesn't know how hard it is, but the adults say that some people are taking steps to run orphanages with a view to State subsidies, and some orphans are placed in poor environments without being properly protected.

Yes, I'm sure I'm blessed. That's why once you get out, you can't go back. You will be taken care of until the day you welcome adults. I decided to leave the orphanage the next day.

--Of course, that's not the only reason I'm enthusiastic.

I glanced at Shiori. She listens to Toby with her usual smile.

Good timing. Because of this, I would like to express some intentions in the meantime.

"Me. When I'm independent... there's someone who wants to be with me. That's why I want to study, train, and be a great adventurer soon. So..."

"Eh!? Is that so!?"

Theori was terribly surprised when she jumped up, and we were surprised again.

"That's... so amazing."

"Eh, no... I mean... well, it's not like my homeland."

It's also cute that Shiori, who rushes to make amends, is a little rushed.

She says that the age of majority is twenty in her home country. Not many teenagers had families before that, but rather tended to be avoided.

In a very rich country, children rarely need to work for their lives, and Toby is required to have an education until his age. Since many of them continue to go to the upper school after graduation, the age at which they nest from their parents will inevitably increase. That's why teenagers tend to see themselves as premature under the protection of their parents, and marriage at that age seems unlikely.

The younger the marriage, the better, especially for women, unlike the kingdom where the tendency to say so is strong.

"Really... that's right. Toby's an adult now. So Toby's working really hard for him now."

"Oops! I still haven't told you how I feel. He seems to be a little older and a lot of rivals, but I'll do my best."

"Yeah, I'm here for you."

Toby laughs at her as she nods with a smile.

"Oops, don't wait!

Yeah? Yeah, good luck.

... I don't think it has been conveyed yet, but this is fine now. It's better. We will continue to build a relationship in earnest.

Toby, who felt better in an atmosphere that was somehow not bad, felt his gaze like shooting at the next moment and became stiff. When I turned my eyes towards you, my eyes met those of purple blue. It's Alec.

Looking down at Toby with his eyes closed to intimidate him, he unexpectedly relaxed his expression and called out to Theori.

"Shiori. It's time for lunch, but what should we do? Let's take a break."

That being said, his hand is casually turned around her shoulder.

The expression of Shiori looking up at him softly resolved. A heartfelt smile, not a clergyman's smile. Seeing a slight splash on his cheek, Toby took a deep breath.

"Yeah, that's right. It's not good to stuff the roots, so I think it's time for a break."

After checking the clock, Siori gazed at Nadia and Ellen and stood up as Alec urged her. Alec's hand, which had moved away from Theoli's luxurious shoulders, was still attached to her thin waist.

Well then, let's take an hour off. I'll come back in the afternoon, so you can leave only those who want to. Thank you very much. "

With Nadia's decree, some of the boys started cleaning up their tools. The rest of them will be practicing in the afternoon.

"What about Toby? Do you want to continue this afternoon?

Of course, she wanted to nod, but Toby shook her head as she smiled.

"I'm trying, but... I'm leaving today. I still have help for the orphanage, so... yeah"

I see. Well, good luck. See you next time. Take care and go home. "

"... oh"

Siori, who also spoke to the students' boys, left the cafeteria with Alec's escort. Until then, Louis, who had been playing with his fellow magicians at the window, chased after them.

Huh?

There was someone who slapped Toby on the shoulder standing there in a gloomy manner. Clemens, a man of dreadful beauty. He slapped his shoulder several times silently, laughing bitterly, then waved his hand and walked away from the scene.

I'll drop it off a while later.

"... eh?

Again, Toby uttered a moaning expression.

"Hey... eh? Huh?"

Resurrected in the back of the brain are purple blue eyes that ejected Toby sharply for a moment, and a man holding Shiori.

Alec Dia, one of the top two-of-a-kind men in the Tris branch, who once visited the orphanage for consolation. Recently, there are rumors that I am in the process of being promoted to S-Class.

A man in such a cloudy position embraced the shoulders of a woman she liked intimately, and she accepted it as a matter of course. And that sweet air of two people looking at each other.

Heirardo Bjorne, an old adventurer who understood the situation and watched Toby completely consolidated, murmured.

"... what is that guy? Was it over before it started?"

One of the young people who heard it said it was stinging.

"Well, it can't be helped. When Alec's husband got back, I didn't think he was going to talk to Shiori so fast."

The young man with him nods at all.

"I don't know how long that kid's been targeting Shiori-san... but if he really lets me out like that, he'll be my enemy."

I don't know.

"I mean, he's going to grow up next month, right? There's too much difference in age in the first place."

"Absolutely. Shiori-san, I can't help it because you look young."

Hillard turned his gaze at the dining room behind them, with the young men talking to each other.

"Even so...."

Remembering Alec, who tried to restrain a boy as old as his parents and children, he laughed.

"--I can't grow any bigger than I thought"

No, no, it stinks blue. It stinks blue.

Behind Toby, laughing amusely, and standing still, the clock ticked at noon.

― ― The Adventurers Association (Alliance) Tris Branch is only a few days away until the end of the year. On this day, a love came to an end without any beginning.
