Reincarnated into an Otome Game? Who Cares! I’m Too Busy Mastering Magic!
299 House Jaime's Vault
"Welcome, Alice-chan"
"Hello, Suwright-sama. Thank you for responding to my sudden request."
It was Sue Wright himself who greeted me when I came to the House of Jaime to gather information.
The purple amethyst sage is passed through a beautiful garden and invited to the east house.
After the maid from the Jaime family had prepared the tea set and left the room, her sister immediately spoke to her.
"This is the first time Alice has told me that she wants to talk to you personally."I was so excited last night that I couldn't sleep! "
Is that so?
While leaning back at the sparkling onee-sama, I brought up the topic I was preparing for.
"When you gave me the asamei that was handed down to the House of Kaime, you brought me various other teaching materials, right?Actually, I was curious about some of the magic tools I saw at that time.I'd like to use that as a reference. "
The goal was to ask Grandpa Richterite about the Imperial Castle, but it wasn't realistic to suddenly go and ask Grandpa about it.
Therefore, I explored the timing of Grandpa's presence in the upper house and visited him with a body that said, "I want you to show me the magic tools, so I came to see Sulite-san."
But when I said that, Sue Lite-san was disappointed because she could understand.
"Hey, is that what you're saying?" I was planning on doing something terrible again, and I was wondering if you'd let me take on that part of the job. "
"Socsonna Koto Hanani Mokanga Etemasenyo!!"
Actually, I'm here to break into the heart of the Empire and prepare to infiltrate, so I'm trying to dye my hands on the worst thing I've ever done, but I can't say that.Too many pictures make me look like a robot, but I drank a lot of tea and managed to bring it back.
"Oh, speaking of which, how is Athena-san?" I heard you're making some final adjustments at home. ”
"Nh... I see."
Sulight's sister looked a little troubled.
"I've always raised you with a view to becoming a concubine, so I don't have any major problems... but Athena really isn't confident."Even though the manners are right, my head has turned pure white in a hurry. "
"That's right..." It's a heavy responsibility, and you're more nervous than usual. ”
"That's right.... but there's something more strange than that."
Strange thing?
When I heard it back, Sue Light-sama tilted her neck.
“Sometimes I look happy.Even though I was so nervous and hated it, it's like I remembered it once in a while. "
……
"When I asked why, I wanted to read a book that was only in the Great Library of the Imperial Castle."I might be trying to find a way to become a book lover.You're getting caught up in something, aren't you?
It was my mother's guess, but Sulight-sama looked at me.
"I know it's strange to ask you to do this to someone younger than Athena... but Athena will start school in the morning and spend the afternoon at the Imperial Castle next week, so I want you to see how it goes during the daytime only"
"Um... I see. I don't know what I can do, but I'll help if I can.”
I feel a little uneasy while nodding firmly.
I am aware that there is something alienating about people's feelings.
It's especially true when you get addicted to something, and it's not uncommon to miss the children of the Dawn Brigade.
Even when I was Gabriela, I didn't realize that I had turned her upside down...
But I couldn't refuse if you asked me to.Above all, Athena-san was an important person.
Sue-light-san laughed amusedly as she renewed her enthusiasm.
"Honestly, when I'm talking to Alice-chan... fufu, I don't know what to say.It's strange because I feel like I'm talking to a mother my own age. "
"I-I see... hahaha"
Actually, I'm the same age, and I look after my children who are about the same age as your daughter, so I can't hit them, I can't go far... I can't say I have a broken mouth.
For the time being, I decided to change the subject.
"Um, I've finished my tea, can I see what I asked for?If you see an unusual magic tool, you may get an interesting new work! ”
"Fufu, that's exciting."Well then, let's go to the vault. "
He was immediately guided and stood in front of a tightly locked metal door.
Onee-sama unlocks several locks, casts a spell, and opens the last lock.
Then the heavy door slowly opened.
"Well, I wonder which one I was talking about."You can grab whatever you like. "
"Oh... ohhh...!!!"
The moment Sue Lite-sama put it on her side, her eyes almost drooped from the spreading sight.
There were coveted treasures like mountains.
"W-What is this!?"
"Hmm? Oh, that's a stone with the magic of purifying water."I heard you used it during the war. "
I-Is this you!?
"That's... it's definitely the brooch you use at the ceremony."It's said to make the user look attractive. "
"Haaa...!"
Inside the vault, one house was about the size of a house, lined with narrow places and magic items.All of them were precious items that were used in old magic.
Not only did she take it one by one and make me feel uncomfortable asking questions, but onee-sama replied with a giggle.
Of course, there are many things that are easy to reproduce using Alheo characters.
However, the wisdom and ingenuity of the old people were very interesting and seemed really helpful.
Then, I forgot the purpose of my visit.
"Here, this cane...!?" By the looks of it, in a simple device using rune characters... ah double structure!? Wow, it's so compact... that Suwright-sama, this place is... "
It wasn't Suwright-san who stood in front of me when I turned around.
”... hah?”
“Hi Alice, it's great to be as eager to study as ever.”
──What a purposeful person.
It was Grandpa Richterite, who was rubbing his hands together behind his back.
