"Dear Alec, what are you thinking?

Mansion living room.

When I was stuck in my thoughts looking out the window, Ange, who cared about it, heard it.

"Yeah, I'm thinking about the winning prize for the Alec Cup."

"Huh?"

Ange gets a moment right, as if she was poked in the void.

While I grin and reassure.

"I know, Ange wonders. Ange suggested the winner have the right to marry me."

"Yes...... that, I knew you couldn't...?

"No, that's not true. It's just a matter of fact, there's a chance that the winner is a man."

".................. ah"

Ange says she realizes the possibility for the first time since she was told.

"Oh, I'm sorry! I completely forgot."

"It's okay."

I grinned again and tried to reassure Ange.

Yes, the Alec Cup is not exclusively for women.

Normally the man participated, and both previous times the man normally won.

"Whatever your father or Ange says, I can't give up on this... because if you were a man, you'd never get married or anything."

"Yes! I understand!"

"Yeah, good"

Seriously, I was a little horrified.

I don't think it's possible, but Father, Father in law, Horsen,... and Eliza?

There are many people around me who behave unexpectedly.

In case you don't think so, but if you're going to be able to marry a man, I'll resist using SSS-ranked magic at that time.

"Besides, if a woman wins, she might not want to get married."

"That's never going to happen! Absolutely!"

Ange insisted strongly and went "absolutely" twice.

"There can't be anyone who can have a chance to marry Master Alec and say no!

"... well, yeah, thanks. Then I'll just think about when the winner was a man. I've been thinking about what a guy would be happy to get."

"Uh... uh..."

Ange thinks desperately, but she can't seem to think of one right now.

"Oh, yeah! Dear Alec, please wait a moment."

"Yeah? Yeah, okay"

Nodding to Ange, she jumped out of the living room.

After a while, I brought back one maid.

The maid is young, but Amelia, an ancient stock of the mansion.

Amelia looks in trouble.

All of a sudden, they brought me in, and they said, "What is it?"

"Thank you for waiting, Master Alec."

"What's the matter, Ange, bring Amelia or something?"

"Amelia, I know so much about you. When Alec isn't around, he tells me everything."

"Oh, yeah."

"Amelia, please listen to Alec."

"Ha... what's wrong, Master Alec"

Amelia still looks bored by the fox.

I explained to her the circumstances so far.

"So I was wondering what I wanted"

"It's hard. If you're an adult male, I think it's about money, land, and women."

"Right there, right?"

In fact, even my senses that I was a normal man in my previous life gave such an answer.

If I put it more together, I'll end up with a word of "gold," but if I broaden my interpretation to say a little, the land and the woman will also be in the candidate.

"But that doesn't make much difference. Originally, your father bought you money so you wouldn't have trouble eating all your life."

"If so."

"Yeah."

"Alec's favorite."

"Inked?"

"For example, if a peasant wins, I'm going to give Alec's name to the crop he's growing. Alec's mark, or for Alec's sake. It's worth climbing a sea urchin even if it's the same."

"I see."

"Or farmland in the first place - name Alec to the address"

"My name on the land... or the land..."

Me thinking a little in that direction.

Two, a good idea flickered in my head.

Cut eyes open, Amelia realizes that.

"What's wrong, Master Alec?"

"I came up with a good idea. Thanks, Amelia."

"No, you're welcome"

"What did you come up with, Master Alec?

"Evidence over theory, let's go out in the garden for a bit"

I took Ange and Amelia both out of the living room into the mansion yard.

I put out a dirt magic ball. I also used it when digging the basement when I quelled the rebellion at Eliza's request, a dirt magic ball.

In the middle of a fairly large garden lawn, a square metre of space was cut out with a dirt magic ball.

Standing at the center of that space, close your eyes.

Ask the stone of the wise. Increase your magic and magic into a space on all sides of a meter.

"... All right"

"Master Alec? Did you do something?

From outside the space, Ange asked with a strange face.

"You'll see when you come to me, Ange."

"Yes...... Yep!?

Ange, who came into the space of a meter and square, raised her voice in amazement.

"Dear Ange?

"Try Amelia in, too."

"I did...... this haha"

Amelia also opened her eyes to surprise.

The space of one meter four that the two came in, that's no longer one meter four.

With the space spreading with gnawing goons, the space scraped off the ground with the earth's magic sphere was about 100 meters square.

"Hi, it's getting wider"

"Try going outside."

"Yes...... oh, it stays the same"

"It's small from the outside, it gets wider when you go inside...... wow! It's amazing, Master Alec! What's wrong with this!

Amelia was excited to put the situation in plain words and asked me.

"It's a kind of spatial magic. Oh, there's something easier to understand."

I found a gardener's tool shed a little further away.

Go ahead and go inside, use the same space magic, then invite the two of you inside.

"Wow! Now the cabin is like a gym!

"I can't believe it...... I've never even heard of this. Is this Alec's magic too?

From the outside, the magic is no different than it was before the magic was hanging, but the magic is that it only gets wider inside.

"Yeah, you are."

"It's amazing, Master Alec!

"I don't know. This"

Ange walked into or out of the room.

From the outside, it's just a tool shed, a larger space in the gymnasium where you can get inside.

Turn that back a few times.

"I'm so excited!

Ange looked at me with excitement, as she put it.

Ange honestly gave her thoughts, but Amelia on the other hand remembered exactly where it started.

"That's right, Master Alec. This is a fantastic hand that not only expanded the land and space, but also virtually gave Alec ink on farmland."

And he admired me.

If you're going to praise me that far, if the winner was a man, you'll be fine with this as a prize.
