Two hundred and seventy-nine.

(I think it's about time.)

After leaving the card store Asteria Home, confirming the time, Mira pointed her legs at the Coffee Craft Bell Antiques Store. It's for the photo shoot I promised.

Coincidentally, Mira was able to see the long-awaited 'Dumblrf' card in qualifying for the card game. Even though the cards were real, I was in a good mood for the ability to defeat General Forty-Eight.

So Mira, as I recall, takes out the Legend of Asteria card.

"I think this one's triggered it."

What I've got is a Fuzzy Dice card. From there, various pieces of information connected. Mira laughed that everything was odd again and went into the antique-loving shopkeeper's waiting shop.

Change of place, in front of the 'Asteria Home' holding room.

(... I didn't know the A-rank adventurer's "Grand Deal of Moonlight Snowflakes" preference was a little girl... It makes sense that we haven't talked about sex before. The woman who stops by him, I guess, because she was just an adult, correspondingly)

Card game skill in its neat face and serene personality. And most importantly, a handsome man with the strength to be an A-rank adventurer - the Grand Deal. Naturally, many women have set up love rushes before him, packed with elements that can still be used.

Among such women are the Noble Lady, as well as many other beauties who may even seem to be flowers of the High Ridge. But Grandir never took their hand.

I don't know where the hell you're dissatisfied. Moreover, if Grandir, Harlem, there was so much air in the women that even polygamy would be allowed. Nevertheless, the man who never befell anyone, Grandeel.

Only once have my fellow adventurers whispered to me. I was wondering if he was a man.

My friend recalls that when such rumors spread, I was always with him for a long time.

A friend of mine, who is also a B-rank adventurer in the same guild as him, was walking toward the venue, stroking down his chest saying he was glad he wasn't, while also having a complicated mood about how the girl loved him.

Even more so, in the Asteria Home store. In front of the hall, which was the venue for the tournament. There was one well-dressed man in the sales space dealing with cards and related goods for card games.

His name is Elio. He's a sales rep for the Grimoire Company. Next to him like that, he also looked like a female clerk.

"Ah, was the tournament over on the boulder yet"

Ellio, who had been watching the game since the beginning of the tournament, had gotten out on the way and was just returning. Put fatigue on your face watching as the venue is removed and ready for the celebration.

"Yes, Mr. Leona has decided to advance to the main battle."

"I see, did it still happen"

When the clerk answers, Elio squeals with a face like he expected.

"Nevertheless, all of a sudden, I was surprised when you left like you were in a panic. Is something wrong?

That was about an hour ago. During a rousing tournament, Elio suddenly jumped out of the store. When the clerk asks about it, Elio sighs and tells him why he's finished working hard. That's because someone I know gave me powerful information that I saw a cute girl with long silver hair.

"Didn't the airship get off to school yesterday? I was curious, I just went to see it before the tournament started. So that's it. If you look closely, you didn't see the national seal on the airship."

Aircraft are very valuable and the majority of them are owned by the State. But I got off to school. That was different. That's right. Elio lined up what he saw and heard at that time.

The ship has carried a large number of children. The children entered a newly built orphanage behind the school. According to the student who witnessed the airship, many spirits are aboard again. Also according to the stories of the officials, things have come from the far grimdart to the far alkaite. And the kids say, "Sister Mira," frequently.

Speaking through them, Elio went on to say that he had heard from his cousin Julio, who was in the same job a few days earlier, about the 'Spirit Queen'.

"The place is Haxthausen in Grimdart. The Spirit Queen appeared in the boom of the Thief Fuzzy Dice."

Elio explains by trying to connect the dots with the dots. "Spirit Queen" who was in Grimdart. The airship that it came from the Grimdart side. There were many spirits on the ship.

"And above all, the children call it 'Mira Sister', whose name is the name of the Spirit Queen!

"The Spirit Queen" is often discussed. However, the alias is too far in advance and the original name doesn't seem to convey much. After listening to Elio, the female clerk finally reveals her surprise when the name Mira and the "Spirit Queen" are linked together.

"I mean, there's a spiritual queen in this city?

"Yeah, that's what I intuited. I still have to say that the characteristic of a cute girl with long silver hair is still vague. But based on the information that the Spirit Queen is coming to this city right now, it's highly likely that she's already here."

the big incident, the crusade of the giant evil chimeric closen. That has been the subject of discussion throughout the continent, and the launch of a booster pack on the subject was currently underway at the Grimoire Company. The cards of the famous adventurers involved will be re-recorded, as will the Spirit Queen, who is considered one of the useful actors.

Consequently, permitting new entries was currently a top priority among Grimoire Company sales. So Elio also jumped out with just another little witness statement.

"But from the looks of it, was it empty?

The female clerk looks at the tired Elio and asks.

"Yeah, you're right. I also heard that you were at the antique store, but it seemed to be a little late..."

After flying out of the store, Elio confirmed around the place that he had witnessed it. But he wasn't there anymore, and he was running around the city listening.

But it's not worth it, and the information I managed to grab additionally is already slow, and Elio laughs bitterly that the Spirit Queen was after she left the antique store.

After that, there was no new information, and I went around and just came back.

"I'm sorry to hear that. It would have been a confirmed bonus if we could have contracted."

"Really, I am. A chance to play in Bacchus…"

Ellio sighs deeply when his expectations were just huge and so was his disappointment.

and one man rushed over to such an Elio and a female clerk.

"Emma. Didn't you see the girl with the long silver hair? When I asked them, they said they'd gone home."

A handsome Grandir friend stopped on the verge of jumping out of the store and asked Emma, a female clerk. He was in contact with Leona fans first after leaving the holding room. And I heard a story about a searcher who was a Dumblrf fan and left a while ago.

If we chase him now, we might be able to catch him. But after leaving the store, it is unclear whether he went right or left.

Therefore, I asked Emma, who had always been near the entrance and exit, but it was Elio who responded first to the words of his friend.

"Hey can you let me hear more about that!?"

Ellio jumped at his friend with an impatient look.

"Huh? No, in the meantime..."

I want to go out and look for him as soon as I can. I don't have time for a detailed explanation. A friend who thinks so, but was completely stopped by Ellio's temper.

"─ Girl with long silver hair. Were you wearing a magic girl costume?

"... could you possibly know about that child?

A feature I heard from Grandir was that she did wear magic girl style outfits. But there is no further information. All Grandir and his friends know is what it looks like.

That's where it sounded, Elio's words. Somehow, he knew more than he looked about the girl he was looking for, and when asked, he replied, "To the extent I heard rumors."

"Okay. I'll talk to you. Tell me about it."

"Fine."

My friend and Elio talked about knowing about a girl with long silver hair in the form of an exchange of information.

"The Spirit Queen...... I didn't know you were in the same business."

The features detailed by Grandir coincided beautifully with those scrutinized by Elio from rumors. That means that it was nothing more than proof that it was the Spirit Queen herself who was in the venue until a short while ago.

The identity of the girl I was looking for was an A-ranked adventurer called the Spirit Queen. My friend is surprised by the fact but delighted to get a very easy clue.

When it came to Elio, he learned the fact that if he hadn't gone outside and watched the tournament here all the time, he would have come from the other side, and was greatly oblivious. And Emma comforts me that no one could have predicted this.

"But I can't believe the adventurer doesn't know the Spirit Queen. Although the case of Chimera Clozen was quite topical"

When Elio said so, his friend replied with a bitter smile. Recently, he was a little alienated from the main business because he was training his cards in preparation for the tournament.

"Speaking of which, we've been playing against each other every day for about two months now, haven't we?"

Squeeze as Emma remembers. My friend still laughs bitterly that he has lost. And in every world, you smudged me that it was what was up there.

Okay, I'll take the left.

"I'm on my right."

Anyway, the important thing now is to find that spiritual queen. Ask him to come to the store if he can. If that's not a good idea, give me your contact details. That's what I decided, and they jumped out of the store.

(Well, even if you can't find it this time, it's a harvest to know you're in the same business)

Friends think as they look around the city without a neighborhood. The Spirit Queen is an A-rank adventurer. If so, we can communicate via the union. Even if we can't find him here, it's possible enough to keep our promise to meet him.

Nevertheless, it took a lot of work and, above all, it was a question of when you would get the message. It often takes time to dive into a dungeon or travel from city to city.

When you get back a communication that you have received the message, set a date and time to meet. In some cases months ahead. In the meantime, if Grandir's troubles persisted, there was no trouble.

Therefore, his friend made the best use of the knowledge and skill he had developed as an adventurer to search for the Spirit Queen.

(Hope you find it)

Elio, by contrast, had no other way to achieve his purpose than to make contact somehow. As far as commercial use is concerned, this is because they cannot accept communications via the Union.

However, Elio had had several successful negotiations under this condition. This time again, as always, he used the connections and good perceptions he had grown so far to follow the Spirit Queen while listening from the people on the road, the owners of the stores, etc.

Mira was in a room transformed into a photography studio while being searched for in unknown places.

"So, Spirit Queen. Quickly, on this couch."

The owner indicated that was the couch Mira had purchased earlier. But if you realize what's going on, there are numerous other antiques lined up around it.

"It's getting busy for a long time."

Mira said what she thought as she sat down on the couch. At first glance, we can see that there is no unity in those antiques and that the ages and regions are fragmented. It was also found that all of them were brilliant things that were highly artistic and looked good, and would be quite a lot of money at a glance.

The only thing is, I don't know why they're being put here like this. Mira turned her gaze to the store owner to ask silently why.

"It is...... Of course, it's because you're the Spirit Queen! You can't let a souvenir photo of Queen Spirit, the great adventurer of the moment, kill the landscape."

When Mira's gaze allowed the shopkeeper to swim his gaze for only a moment, after a short while, he smoothly said why. But at this time, the shopkeeper's face had a sales smile on it, and Mira sees it as a compliment. Because it looked very different from when we were talking about antiques.

"Is that true?

After Mira wandered her gaze further once she now asked, the shopkeeper just opened his mouth saying he had noticed.

This photo will be critical enough to be a turning point in the antiques industry. Therefore, as evidence of that information, this photograph will be conveyed widely across the continent along with the name of the store from which it originated. Moreover, it definitely spreads beyond imagination from person to person, from antique enthusiasts to antique enthusiasts.

That's why we've arranged the finest products that we pride ourselves on, along with a little advertising for the store.

"I thought I could advertise all over the continent without spending on publicity, and I don't have a hand in not hitchhiking this,"

With a confessional tone of sin, the shopkeeper, who then exposed it that far without looking bad, tightened his expression neatly at the next moment: "If you're restless, I'll clean it up right away!," he continued.

"No, it doesn't extend to that. Whatever you want."

The shopkeeper is an antique enthusiast and a merchant who runs the store. Convinced that these strengths were still there, Mira rather laughed bitterly that this was just the right amount, and decided to meditate her eyes on publicity.

"Thank you. Now, let me take a picture."

The shopkeeper, who politely bowed his head and thanked him, finally set up a photo machine all the time. And I said, "Oh, I'm fine with you being normal. And then the gaze, please, around here," I ordered some from Mira.

"Hmmm... should I look like this"

Mira, sitting back on the couch as though she were the queen yet fluttering with majesty, responds to the shopkeeper's request and returns her grumpy posture to a dear pose. It was a well-dressed failure to perform myself. However, as requested by the shopkeeper, Mira's appearance on the couch, which seemed a little adult, was interesting even as a deep-window maid, and the beautiful girl was more prominent.

"Yes, that undecorated and innocent look! Fantastic!"

The shopkeeper, who brilliantly brings out the pity hidden in Mira's little body, cuts the shutter looking a little excited. And after a while, he muttered, "This may have been one of the best," and looked up to heaven with momentum that seemed to ascend.

"Oh well. Then the spirits won't feel safe."

The photographs in evidence appear to have been taken completely. Having learned so much from the store owner's condition, Mira was pleased that the environment of the artificial spirits in an unusual position would be improved by this. And I just stood up saying the role was over, that's when.

Unexpectedly, I hear the owner waiting for me.

"Oh, wait, Spirit Queen. If you can, as a spare, let me take some more pictures. You can also think that the first sheet is failing due to misalignment, blinking, etc."

I'm sorry, but the shopkeeper looked really serious and asked to continue shooting. Though there was a response that one of the best was taken, in some cases, it may not be usable.

"Well... I'm sure you'd be anxious to have just one."

Mira stares at the photo machine provided on the tripod in front of her and squeals so. And I still remembered that that photographic machine could not be digital.

The photo machines that are now spreading throughout the world were brought in technology by former players. But what I once heard in a chat with Solomon is that digital cameras with plenty of electronics are not yet made and everything that's out in the world is filmed.

In other words, the photographic machines brought out by the owner are also film-based. And unlike digital in the case of film type, it was not possible to confirm how it could have been taken without developing it. If the first one fails without only shooting, it's over.

Convinced by the store owner's statement, Mira sat back on the couch once now, taking the same attitude as earlier, saying with a soft-face, "Anytime's good," she said.

"Thank you. Then..."

The store owner graciously then restarts the photo machine and cuts the shutter again. And I also shot "just in case, another one" twice or so.

"Thanks to the Spirit Queen, we have a wonderful photo."

The shopkeeper laughs so loudly. But it also seeps a strange color into his expression, and he walks out to look around Mira with a photographer removed from his tripod in his hand.

"Even more so now, I thought, maybe from other angles, you could draw on the charm of the Spirit Queen more."

The shopkeeper, who shrugged with a very strange face, asked me if I could shoot some more. And good looking pictures can only attract people's interest.

If interest arose, it could sooner or later pop out of the antique world and reach the general public. If that happens, the possibility arises that those who have no ties to the antiques will be interested in triggering it. In this way, there will be opportunities for commerce in stores, and the recognition of spirits living in antiques will be further expanded, so that they can be handled better. Yes, the shopkeeper makes me speak fluently.

"Hmm...... I don't know, is that what it is?"

Isn't the earlier picture enough that you were well handled? Mira tilted her neck at the store owner's words, not sure because she was not as familiar with publicity and advertising.

Then the shopkeeper spins words all the time here.

"If it was an ad or subject to go there, it would certainly have been enough now. But you're not! That angelic beauty has the potential to push the limit of enough! But that can't be normal. That's why I want to change the angle and try to get that right!

The shopkeeper answered with a high voice in such a sensational manner. With so much enthusiasm not to lean on anything else, "It's a possibility because you're a spiritual queen," he stared at Mira with his passionate eyes.

"Ho...... I'm the only one who can do it."

"Yes, I can't think of anything but a spiritual queen"

A few questions. But then, Mira's mind was decided.

In addition to promoting a little store, this photograph will also be an advertisement aimed at recognizing the existence of the Furniture Spirit. If so, there was no compromise option for Mira worrying about the Spirit.

"Okay, okay. Let's make it a picture where everyone believes the Spirit lives in antiques too!

Mira, so intent, just come on. Get in position and face the photographer. And he made me smile invincibly, creating myself that I could afford.

"Thank you. Oh, that compelling smile, it's great!

When the shopkeeper shouts loudly, he cuts the shutter as the momentum holds. Then, using it as a skin cut, he changed angles and directions one after the other and started taking pictures.

"Boulder, Spirit Queen! Fine, that's great! Yes, you have the Queen's smile! Come on, up next! GOOD! Now let's lower our gaze a lot! ─ ─

As the shooting continued, the store owner pushed the limit of heat, entering the tense like a photographer who seemed to be somewhere. Its body moves well without missing the allure of Mira, allowing shooting from all directions. And the pose instructions popping up everywhere were all about maximizing Mira's pity and little satanic luster as a beautiful girl.

"Let's see."

With such momentum and heat from the shopkeeper, Mira also did everything as she was told again. It deserves the name of the Spirit Queen, such as posing as a conceited queen or, if you wonder, the gravian-style that fell asleep on the couch. Besides the girly cuteness, the shooting continues with a bunch of sexy shots.

"That's it, here you go! It's perfect!

The store owner who shuts down Mira on the subject was still doing so well.

A shooting party I started for my beloved antique. The trigger was certainly supposed to be that. But every time I cut the shutter, every time Mira changes her pose, the color of the store owner's eyes gradually changes again.

"Nice, Finish......!

And the last one, the shopkeeper with a sexy shot of licking from his feet on the last film, rolled to the floor with such a full smile that he was likely to ascend. His eyes, with love and sexuality floating in half at the same time, are just closed when they have been accomplished. The condition was as sunny as it was with all of Tenshou.

The owner accomplished his primary purpose. The purpose of putting Mira's charm on record.

And at the same time, it was one that led to the future of the antique world. If the information comes out with this photo, it's bound to change the current state of the said antics, which definitely had no way of dealing with it.

The shopkeeper thanked God for the light inserted into the future of the antiques world and for the treasure he had made for the rest of his life.
