Cheat Magician Life That Started From Being Judged Useless

The fruits of work

***---***

After returning to the boarding house and washing off my sweat, I put on the clothes I just bought.

When I wear crispy clothes that have just been bought, I feel that I'm somewhat sharper.

"Amanda-san, then I'm heading out."

"Yes, if you're late, I'll lock up, so go straight back to your room."

"Yes, I understand."

"Take care, Kent."

"I'm off, Meisa-chan."

Yesterday, Meisa-chan, who was pouting for me to take her with me, is now seeing me off with a big smile.

I bought a box of Mesudori Pavilion cookies as a souvenir to bring to Klaus-san, but I bought an extra box and gave it to Meisa-chan.

Fufufu, so simple-minded.

From the alley behind the boarding house, I moved in the shadow.

I may be a little over-self-conscious, but I'm getting more and more attention lately, and it's getting more and more troublesome.

I can't afford to be late for the invitation because of some strange people.

I couldn't just suddenly go out in front of the gate, so I waited for the flow of people to stop at the corner of the road a little ways away before I went out.

When I showed the invitation to the garrison member guarding the gate, I was smiled at with a great smile.

"Since the apprenticeship of the gardener, you've made a lot of progress."

"No, I don't think it's as good as a career, but I'm nervous since it's my first time like this."

"Hahaha, Klaus-sama is a person who doesn't care about the details, so I hope you enjoy it."

"Yes, I will do that."

Like before, I walked along the grassed cobblestones to the front door.

Since the sun is going down, the sky is adorned with beautiful gradiations from orange to deep indigo.

When I rang the heavy door knocker, the door opened quietly.

"Welcome, Kent-sama."

"G, good evening, I, I'm here to take part in the invitation today ..."

"Please give your greetings to the Lord."

"Ha, hahi ..."

I was overwhelmed by the butler's 'The Butler' aura who greeted me, and I greeted him unintentionally.

Guided by the butler with my mouth tingling, we go down the corridor.

By the way, when I came last time, there was a scent of medicine in the mansion, but today it has a refreshing scent of flowers.

"Go ahead ..."

"I'm sorry ..."

Beatrice, dressed in a pale pink dress, stood in the drawing room, but as soon as she saw me, her smile bloomed like a flower, and she walked towards me with a bouncy step.

Uh ... it's bad, she's so cute, she feels like a real princess.

Beatrice gracefully bowed by pinching the hem of her skirt.

"Welcome, I'm glad to see you, Kent-sama."

"G, good evening, I, I'm here to take part in the invitation today ..."

"Stiff greetings and such, we don't need them, come, let's sit down ..."

"Y, yes ..."

Beatrice pulled me to the sofa.

Beatrice sits next to me and naturally keeps her body in close contact.

"Be, Beatrice-san ..."

"Rise."

"Ri, Rise ..."

"Yes, Kent-sama."

"Hey, aren't you a little too close ... I wonder ..."

Beatrice's face, sitting next to me and in close contact with my body, is at a distance where I can feel her breath.

I mean, isn't it hard to focus your eyes being this close?

"There is no such thing, or rather, this isn't enough ..."

"Rise ..."

Beatrice's lips approached me and made a noise on my cheek.

Anyway, anyway, isn't this something a handsome guy does?

Beatrice, who separates her lips from me, smiles a sweet smile.

Yeah, it feels like I'm certified as a carnivorous rabbit's property.

"Hey Rise, why me?"

"That's ... you saw my improper appearance, and touched me everywhere ..."

"Gufu ... but that was treatment ..."

"Is it really 100% treatment? Didn't you have any guilty feelings? Am I not attractive?"

"N, no ... I can't say there was nothing ..."

Beatrice was in a really bad condition when I started treating her rot disease, and it made me wonder how she was still alive.

An unhealthy feeling was also transmitted to the palms of my hands that shed healing magic.

However, the softness of Beatrice, who regained her complexion and health through treatment, is ... dangerous, and even if I remember it, I'm likely to have a nosebleed.

"Because you violated this maiden's body, you have to properly take responsibility ..."

"What are you saying, violate ... be, besides, we still don't know each other well yet ..."

"That's why, we need time to get to know each other like this?"

"But if other invited guests can see this ..."

"Tonight, there's only Donovan-san besides Kent-sama, and Donovan-san won't be able to see us until the last minute."

No, she's supposed to be younger than me, but I don't feel like I can win no matter what I say.

Still, if I don't tell her to stop kissing me in public, the jealousy of Nazario might cause a troublesome thing again.

"Rise, I have a request ..."

"Well, what could it be? Something like what we did during treatment time, right now is a little ..."

"No, it's not that. Can you stop kissing me in front of everyone when we meet in the city?"

"For what purpose is that?"

"Because there are a lot of people who are longing for Rise, I think there are a lot of people who feel jealous or unconvinced when you kiss me."

"You, something like that ... Kent-sama is the hero who saved Volzard. Rather, there are many people who feel unconvinced about me."

"No, that's not possible. Anyway, kissing in the city is prohibited ..."

"That's unpleasant."

Beatrice who is being 'Tsun' with her lips sharply pointed and has become sulky ... is super cute, isn't she? It makes me want to hug her.

"Even if you hate me, it's a little embarrassing to be kissed when everyone is watching ..."

"The one who was kissed by another woman is saying that ..."

"Uh ... no, Manon and Yuika ..."

"How is it different from me, is it because I'm younger, or am I unattractive, or ..."

Beatrice's eyes were moistened and teary-eyed, and tear-drops dropping from her eyes fell down her cheeks.

"No, no ... there's nothing lacking in charm ..."

"Yo Kent, you did well to come here ..."

"Higu ... K, Klaus-san? This is ... different ..."

Yeah ... What a timing to come in, this bad old man.

"Kent ... I hope you're ready for this ..."

"No, it's really different, it's a misunderstanding. I'm just ..."

"Just ... what? Tell me ..."

Wow ... He has bad eyes, but I'm completely gone ...

"But when we meet in the city, I want her to stop kissing me in front of everyone ..."

"Whaaa? You said you refused a kiss from Rise? You shouldn't joke around. I haven't had her kiss me for years. She used to love papa ... Anyway, the one who used to kiss me, tells me these days that I'm annoying."

"No, it's your fault ..."

"Shut up! Bastard, it's already decided. With a gloomy expression as she floats near the windows, Kent-sama ... Are the feelings of the me that is made to hear such muttering understood?"

"No, but, the jealousy and envy is amazing ..."

"Of course it is! That's how it is compared to receiving a kiss from Rise, if anything, it's a reward!"

"No, because Klaus-san told me not to put my hands on her ..."

"Of course I did! Kent, I don't admit that you bastard can put your hands on her ... but if you're going to receive a kiss from Rise, you can't afford to refuse it, you fool!"

No, what you're saying is incoherent, what is Beatrice thinking while staying in close contact even in this situation?

"Papa ... annoying."(TN:Uzai)

"Guha ..."

Oh, Klaus-san collapsed to his knees.

I mean, can you stop glaring at me with upturned eyes, and muttering 'I'll kill you, I'll kill you' over and over again?

"Goshujin-sama, Donovan-sama, has arrived."

It's a butler-san who doesn't change his complexion even in this situation ...

"What's this situation ... Kent, don't mess around with Klaus-san."

"I'm doing no such thing."

"Fufuf, it's a joke ..."

In order to understand the situation, after relieving the tension a little, Donovan-san calmly sat in the chair opposite me.

Or rather, is it okay to leave Klaus-san alone?

Donovan-san opened his mouth after seeing me, who was perfectly attached to Beatrice.

"I see how it is, that idiot son of the Orlando Store, no wonder he's messing with you ..."

"Eh ..."

Upon hearing Donovan-san's words, Beatrice stared at me with a surprised expression.

"Did you talk to Dellitz?"

"Yes, that's right, but that person doesn't seem to be straightforward ..."

"Fufufu, that's natural. Otherwise, the store couldn't be so big."

"Well, Nazario was given a warning, so I think it's okay ..."

Ara-ra, Beatrice is feeling despondent.

I mean, just coming in, grasping the situation and talking about the right topic ... I wonder if Donovan-san is an Esper.

"Beatrice-jou, you seem to be accustomed to being seen by people, but you should think a little about how you are being looked at."

"Yes ... I'm sorry, Kent-sama."

"Oh, yeah, but it's not that serious, so it's okay."

She let go of my body in a sloppy manner, but she grabbed my cuffs and held on ... It's dangerous, is it okay to hug her?

"So how was your talk with Orlando Store?"

I was asked by Klaus-san, who recovered as if nothing had happened.

"Yes, he said to throw away the things up until now and to start over from a level field ..."

"I see, to lead a hand-reared party including A-rank adventurers around by the nose, I think it's a reasonable line."

"Oh, yes, I have something to talk about before the meal ..."

"What, I'm not allowing you to marry Rise ..."

"No, it's about the messenger from Resenburg."

"Ah? Is there a messenger from Resenburg?"

"Yes, they should arrive at Volzard in the evening on fire day, the beginning of the week."

According to Fred, who continued to scout, Camilla ordered the messenger to leave early in the week after finishing the selection.

"Well, are they planning to leave Lastock early in the morning and arrive at Volzard that same day?"

"Yes, that's how it is, but it seems that the Resenburg side doesn't know we're in Volzard at the moment."

I talked to Klaus-san about what Camilla might have guessed so far and asked for advice on how to deal with it.

"I see ... If they don't know where you are, you don't have to bother to let them know ... Rather, it's better not to know where you are."

"But if the knights of Resenburg ask about us, we have this hair color ..."

"Well, the black-haired group certainly stands out, and if they ask me, they'll find you in Volzard in one go, but ... you're worried."

"Well, is it okay if we get caught?"

"There is that too, but they don't have time to gather information, they have to return by the next morning."

"Well, the next day ...?"

"Oh, almost certainly ... do you have any other questions? If not, let's have supper. Tonight is a recognition party for surviving the maximum outbreak.

He feels like a fox, but it's okay because the lord of Volzard says so.

Klaus-san took the lead and guided us to the cafeteria.

"Welcome, I'm glad to see you, Kent-san."

"G, good evening, I'm here to take part in the invitation today ..."

"Come, come, dispense with the stiff greetings, have a seat please."

"Yes, thank you."

Marianne-san, who greeted me, is dressed in a bright red evening dress that matches her hair color.

Klaus-san is at the so-called 'birthday' seat of a large table that can seat more than 10 people, Donovan-san is diagonally to his right, and Marianne-san is next to him. I sat opposite Donovan-san, and Beatrice sat next to me.

"Now, let's toast to suriving the maximum outbreak."

Klaus-san raised a glass filled with a slightly golden liquid.

It has a soft and refreshing scent and smells of alcohol.

"Um ... I can't have alcohol yet ..."

"What are you saying, you can't say that the man who made a great deal of effort in defending Volzard can't drink. And Kent this is the new liquor from Bruno."

"Well, is that Bruno-san from the livre plantation?"

"Yes, livre liquor is best to drink after it has been aged for about three years, but there are a few new liquors that have just been brewed at this time. It's a translation of fortune-telling. You see, it's the result of your sweat."

I thought I had goosebumps all over my body.

Summoned to this world, I arrived at Volzard, and my first job was to harvest and prepare the livre plantation.

Some percentage of the new liquor in front of me also includes my work.

"Now, a toast to Volzard's safety!"

"Cheers!"

The liquor I drank for the first time seemed to condense a refreshing scent, and it seemed to permate all through my body from my mouth, throat, and nose.

The reason why I feel warmth flowing through my stomach is probably because it contains alcohol.

"How is it, Donovan."

"Yes, this year's liquor seems to be good."

"If Donovan's endorsement comes out, there's no doubt, how about Kent?"

"Yes ... Guzu ... I'm impressed."

"Idiot, why is this guy crying?"

"Because this liquor from Bruno-san's place where I worked for the first time ... Thanks to Dino-san and Maya-san ..."

I remembered when I came to Volzard, and when I thought that the memory was made into liquor and it was here, tears began to overflow.

"Kent, you protected it."

"Eh ..."

"This liquor might have been messed up if it had been stepped on by the goblins ... maybe it couldn't have been tasted like this. You've protected it, I'm proud."

"I ... yes, yes ..."

It's sloppy, and if you say that, I'll be overwhelmed with tears.

I put the new libre liquor in my mouth and closed my eyes to think of the scenery at the farm.

Cheerful Dino-ojii-chan, kind Maya-oba-chan, stout Bruno-san ... everyone's faces come to mind.

After two weeks of work, I was completely occupied with training and rescue operations. I completely neglected them.

Tomorrow is rest day of the week, I decided to visit the farm with a souvenir to talk about my impressions of the new liquor.
