The rain is hitting the window.

There was heavy silence.

But you can't be dragged by that.

"... this story, my lady..."

The Earl slowly shook his head left and right.

You mean you don't know. I think that's fine. From what I've learned, I'm just going to plant pointless guilt.

"What's the lady like now?

"As a result of the activation of the Devil's Eye, my relatives were assigned (...). She was just rubbing it with the color of her dress, so she hit the maid who was there."

"Are you okay?"

"Of course. The maid chief still knows how to defend herself. —— but the fact that she ran out of magic and was suddenly surprised by a leopard person put Eva to sleep."

I was upset. [M] They landed a better category among the worst.

"So what should I do with the lady"

"The magician said the seal will come sooner or later when it can be unsealed. That I should be able to control my magic by then. But very few seal-related skilled people can look for it in two days a day."

The Earl placed a small leather bag on the table. I looked familiar in a stuffy, spherical form —— very.

"I was going to give this to you at the gift pearl awards ceremony the day after tomorrow"

What came out of it was a blue light —— a strangely warm (...) feeling light —— even a gifted pearl. The light is strong, and the outdoors can be dim due to the rain, illuminating the indoors brightly.

The characters you see there are called [Magic Operation ].

"When Eva gets used to magic control, she's going to drop the stars and have them done with one [magic manipulation] of the stars, even if they don't end up"

Really? You had a proper response... if it was going to be a gifted pearl, it wouldn't be hard for the Count's finances. I think the 4 star [magic manipulation] is pretty rare though.

I'll be happy then. [M]

"... you didn't have to worry about the seal if the award ceremony was held the day after" The Dinner Party of the buds and the crescent moon ""

If so, it's... it's my fault.

"Mr. Reggie, you saved Master Kruvschlatt's life. No one will blame you. I'm not particularly injured about today."

"But..."

"If you still care, I have a favor (...)"

The Earl grinned —— wow, nice smile. I was well guided. [M]

"Giving gifted pearls by the award ceremony is unacceptable. But I can't leave Eva like this, so I'm going to use magic tools that will push her magic to the limit."

What the Count had placed on his desk was a bracelet embedded in silver and five green gems.

"This is the one?

"Yes, it absorbs magic and when it absorbs, the green turns blue. I have a lot of magic capacity so I can save it tomorrow or the day after...... but the problem is Eva herself. It's physical scarcity that lacks magic."

"Oh......"

I know very well because I have fallen out of magic too.

"At a time when even just being able to force tension, it means the flesh is also tough. So I want Mr. Reggie to stay with her and do it."

"That doesn't have to be said anymore"

When I answered immediately, the Count shook his head to the side.

"Eva relies on you more than you think."

Yes...... is it? That sounds delightful, embarrassing.

"Okay. Then I'd like to go escort your daughter."

"Regards"

I stood up and thought I'd leave the room. I noticed.

"That's right. Didn't the Count say he had two things to tell me?

"Oh —— right. I forgot."

Nothing, the Earl said in such a tone.

"It's a gifted pearl given to Master Kruvschlatt, but apparently it has a lot of potential of at least 7 stars"

"Heh..."

What did you say?

7!?

"What's up? Was that so much information Mr. Reggie wanted to know?

"Yes, no, but I've never heard of seven..."

"Neither do I. But I guess that's not the gifted pearl you're looking for, is it?

"It 's--... Yes, that's right"

"Mr. Reggie had some kind of gifted pearl in mind and was seen wanting to know the information. So I guess you're not interested in talented pearls with 7 or more unknown stars"

Scary. That's all the Count thinks about.

"I'm interested. Interested."

"Even at least 7 stars?

"7 stars or more"

Whatever. You can have more than nine.

"Really? I get it. Thank you for your time, Eva."

"Yes."

I left the Count's room and headed to the lady's bedroom.

According to the attending doctor of the Sullies family, the lady is asleep, so I came to the lady's bedside with permission to enter the room.

It's dark outside even though it's daytime, and the rain tells the windowsill to fall. The little magic guide lamp on the pillow was throwing gentle light indoors.

I brought a small chair and lowered my hips beside the bed. If it's true, the escort's not ready for me to come here, but the Count seemed to have given me permission, and there were two maids in the corner of the room, but I confronted the sleeping lady.

(... I didn't think you'd find out about your daughter's mother in this way)

If you found out about the past, your daughter would have a terrible chest ache. You might even think that your demon eyes killed my real mother —— even though that's never happened.

(If I can help the lady by leaning in, I will gladly help. Of course we have to look for Lark or Mr. Lulusha, but it shouldn't be a problem to the extent that the lady spends time with him until she gets used to [magic manipulation]. If I had my [Mori Luo Wan], I might be able to give you some advice)

In my hand was a magic prop given to me by the Count —— a bracelet that also looked like an accessory. Looking through [Mori Luo Wan], I can see that many sorcery ceremonies are written on the surface that comes into contact with my hand.

The technique seemed to me like a chain to tie the lady up.

(... the Count told me so much about private circumstances, not only because he's buying me... but also because he's trying to attract sympathy. That guy, that's what I have there)

Of course, if you ask me that, I'll say, "I'm telling you because I trust Mr. Reggie. I don't know if it will be taken that way" or so I guess I would say without moving a single eyebrow.
