Lucille came to my mansion.

Lucille is Lucille's niece in crimson and also Lucille's apprentice.

So, it's going to be my sister apprentice, but I just met her today, and Lucille lacks emotional ups and downs, and I'm not sure what she's thinking.

Lucille in a black robe stared at me and I was in trouble.

"Um... what's up?

"Sticky."

Lucille says in an unchallenged voice.

This is the mansion hall, and behind me there are residents who feel intrigued.

Six girls, including Philia, Clarice, Lisa, Estelle, and Lylene Remilia.

Lucille glanced at them.

"Besides Dr. Lucy, there are so many girls out there"

"That's right!

So Clarice advances out.

And I deliberately put my index finger up and laughed.

"Master Solon and I are tired of living in this mansion with as many as nine women. And all the beauty!

To the six of us here, and to the twins of Arte Flora, if you let Lucy in, it would be nine indeed.

But the way Clarice put it, I feel misleading.

I thought, Lucille stared at Clarice wonderfully.

"What does everyone have to do with Solon?

"I am a maid, and Master Solon is your husband."

Clarice answers happily for some reason.

"I am Solon's disciple, and Solon is my master, right?

and Filia.

The young Estelle said of me, "The man who saved my life".

Everyone saw Lylene Remilia next to Estelle.

"Oh, my turn?

Lylene, Remilia wanted to know how we were doing.

Lylene Remilia is a former executive of the Knights of St. Sophia.

Ever since Sage Arte assaulted me as a traitor, I've been unable to use magic well.

"Solon is... someone I can trust, I guess. I feel safe being in this mansion because I have Solon"

Lylene Remilia blushed a little.

Next up is Lisa, the white monk girl who took my side during the Necropolis offense.

"Are you Mr. Solon to me? I'm an admirer!

Lisa said pleasantly and Philia swelled her cheeks when she saw it.

"Ah, sloppy. I should have said the same."

Sophia stayed at the end.

Sophia was a pure white monastic garment as usual, which, in contrast, turned her face bright red.

"Solon is important to me, and I wish I was important to Solon."

Sophia glanced at me with her emerald eyes and then got embarrassed.

I tried to open my mouth to answer, but before that, Philia smiled happily.

"I mean, we're all buddies."

"You mean a solon companion...?

Philia nodded with a smile at Lucille's inquiry.

"Yeah. We're all in this mansion."

"So did Dr. Lucy..."

"So I need to help Lucy"

Nevertheless, bailing on the army to rescue Lucy would also mean treason against the imperial government.

I am considered a cautious figure by the government for various reasons, including being in conflict with the Knights of Salvation, covering Arte for the Necropolis affair, and being Lucy's apprentice.

"There's no way Solon and Sophia can defeat the soldiers and solve it right now if it's magic."

I nodded to Phyllia's words.

"Yes. No rush allowed. If you move poorly, it's the enemy's idea."

The biggest enemy is not Claire.

Claire at least told me to keep Lucy from being executed.

I guess that's Claire's military intelligence agency's intent, too.

The more dangerous Knights of the Redemption, and how Father Gapon's Emperor's Office Part III will emerge, is the question.

"I'm looking into where Dr. Lucy is with me, and I'm considering ways to rescue him. The problem is power. I want to avoid fighting and solving as much as possible..."

As I kept saying, Sophia pulled my sleeve.

And stare at me to the top.

"When you have something to fight for and protect, I want you to use my power."

"Sorry. Thanks"

When I stared back at Sophia, Sophia sifted and shook her neck to the side and said, "You don't have to apologize" to me.

My ability to fight in this mansion today is almost limited to me and Sophia, and Lisa.

When that happens, for example, if this mansion is raided by the Knights of Salvation, can we protect everyone?

The only hope is Lucy's entrusted book of magic.

Lucille took the Book of Magic.

"I don't think you guys have enough power right now"

"I guess Lucille's right. With the help of the Book of Magic."

"To do this, we need the magic of Master Filia. So we need to be able to use the supporting magic of this Apocalypse."

"To do this..."

When me and Lucille stared at Phyllia, Phyllia let her face shine.

"Maybe I, am I expected?

"Right. I will be burdened with Dear Philia..."

"Yeah. Glad! Because I will do my best to help Solon!

"Thank you. Let's do our best to decipher the Book of Magic."

"Huh? Or decrypt?

"This magic book is written in ancient script, so you can't read it as it is."

Lucy didn't write all of this magic book herself, but seemed to make ancient magic as a foundation.

I added letters to the magic written in ancient scripts and made a book of magic.

The Magic Book contains magic in the letters themselves, and the structure changes depending on the type of letter.

That's why it's not written in imperial standard language, but it still needs to be grasped and understood.

"Ho, there's no translated version or anything?

To Philia's inquiry, Lucille shook her neck to the side.

"There isn't. Dr. Lucy has mastered ancient Alemanian."

That's something like genius Lucy, but from us, I got in trouble.

Lucille seems to know how to decipher it.

"At the very least, it seems that if you can understand what it means at the word level, you can use magic, and there's nothing I or Dear Philia can't manage to read... it's a lot"

If I did it alone, it would take two days.

Although.

Clarice hit Pong in the hand.

"I'll help!

says Clarice.

Everyone else nodded at the word as well.

"Are you sure?

"Of course! Even if you can't do it alone, it's a moment for eight of us."

"Sure, this book looks like a string spelling, so can you work with it at the same time if you split" "

When I turned my eyes to everyone else, everyone nodded in unison.

Sophia gave me a soft grin.

"It's not just Master Philia, we all want to help you, Solon."

"Thank you, Sophia. And everybody."

When I came back to Imperial City, I was alone.

But at some point, I've got a lot of people living in my mansion, and they need me.

Phyllia looked up at me and snapped, "I'll do my best, too," and smiled.
