51 – Joint Practice (5)

… … quadruple.

The interior of the crack, which had been divided into several branches, regained its original appearance.

If there is one difference, is it to the extent that the crystal that becomes the nucleus has been moved so that no one other than me can find it?

“The efficiency isn’t too bad.”

It was a bit arrogant to ask for magical power, but I liked that he properly recognized the difference in position and obeyed.

Most of all, because it was communication in a way that conveys will, not intention, he embodies the situation I want without any deficiency.

Thanks to this, I was able to erase the traces very easily without using authority.

It wasn’t exactly erased, it was scattered.

The place where the work was done and the guy named Kim Jeong-hyun were crushed and scattered throughout the re-established rift.

In addition, he did not forget to manipulate all of the internal magic power in preparation for psychometry-type abilities.

‘I want them to move quickly.’

If the shadowy guys visit this place in search of the whereabouts of Kim Jung-hyun and the demon, they will follow the traces I have manipulated and become new guides to satisfy my interest.

Whoops.

As soon as you step into the exit, the scenery changes completely with a slight sense of floating.

The dull blue ceiling disappeared and a slightly warm sunset sky appeared.

My gaze naturally guarded the crack and moved to the side of the line official.

Standing there was Lee Ye-sol, wearing plain plain clothes, not a pure white robe.

He released the mana that was wrapped around his body and slightly revealed his presence.

Lee Ye-sol, who was a little dazed, turned her head to this side.

Recognizing me, she slightly bowed her head and greeted me.

“Did you come out?”

“I used holy water well.”

“It was made by the Executor, so he would be happy if you deliver it later.”

“I will.”

As I passed the frozen official and headed for the checkpoint, Lee Ye-sol quietly followed behind.

“Everyone returned to the academy without much fuss, and the injured students were also completely healed.”

I nodded and asked at Lee Ye-sol’s behavior, which was not her role.

“If you have any business, tell me. Seeing that he even changed his outfit cumbersomely, it seems like he has something else to say.”

Less than Claire, but Lee Ye-Sol also provided a lot of help on a similar level to Claire.

Rather than giving it, it’s closer to just asking for it one-sidedly.

In any case, it is said that a light request is a relationship that can be granted.

“It’s no different, after returning to the academy, I saw the executor packing his things. When I asked why, he said that he would be staying at the professor’s mansion for a while.”

“I asked you to stay for a few days due to circumstances.”

“You mean the professor himself?”

“Yes.”

“Hmmm.”

I couldn’t see her face because I was standing behind her, but I could feel Ye-Sol Yee-Sol’s excitement right now just by raising her voice a little.

– Confirmed.

Just like when I entered, I followed formal procedures and came out of the restricted area.

“If there is anything Claire needs to do, let me know. I will send it back as quickly as possible.”

“no. For several years, all the bailiff did was review and approve documents, and he will continue to do so, so please hire the bailiff at your convenience.”

“You’re saying something that would be quite hurtful if the person in question heard it.”

“well. It seems that you will have a slightly different reaction than the wound. Ho Ho.”

Lee Ye-sol smiled smirking and slowly passed me forward.

“Come this way.”

Ye-Sol Lee took me to the parking space, where I got into the vehicle Ye-Sol Lee personally pulled.

I put on my belt and start the car.

I asked while looking at Lee Ye-sol reflected in the window.

“therefore. Why did you come back?”

“If you don’t mind, could you spare some time today?”

“If it were today… Four hours seems to be fine.”

“That’s enough.”

Lee Ye-sol covered her mouth and laughed, and the still scenery began to move slowly.

**

-Wow, are you an Awakener? it’s really big

– You look like an Awakener. Why are you wearing those weird glasses?

– It must be something like an artifact, right?

Ye-Sol Yee-sol, wearing glasses that impairs perception at the muffled voices of people, looked at me and asked.

“Did I come to a place where there are too many people?”

“Okay.”

It hadn’t happened once or twice, and it was something out of the interest of people I didn’t know.

Rather, I was more curious about why Lee Ye-sol had brought me to the department store.

I escaped the gaze of the crowd and climbed the escalator.

On top of it, which moved smoothly, I naturally asked Lee Ye-sol, who stood next to me.

“Are there any items with special conditions for purchase?”

“Yes… ?”

“Something that’s only sold to men, or things like couples’ products.”

“ah… … .”

Raising her head slightly, Lee Ye-sol blinks a couple of times.

Then he raised the corner of his mouth and said.

“If it was something like that, you wouldn’t have bothered the professor, would you have asked the other kids?”

“then.”

“It’s no different that I asked the professor to accompany me, and I wanted our bailiff to bring us some things to use while staying at the professor’s mansion.”

“If there are things to use, they should be in the temple.”

“It is true. Oh, this way.”

The floor following Lee Ye-sol was the floor where women’s clothing stores were gathered.

“The Executor is so frugal that he has no interest in adorning himself. That’s why you don’t have a spare set of plain clothes.”

“… … exactly. The width of the costume is very narrow.”

“It is. Seriously, you have that look and body and don’t use it.”

“Is there something that a woman of Claire’s level of skill and status should use her looks and figure for?”

“Hmmm, of course.”

She covers her mouth with her hand and laughs.

Then we stopped in front of a store.

The female staff only politely greeted them.

It didn’t come towards us.

“When the professor saw it, what do you think would suit the bailiff?”

Same design but different colors.

I thought about the white and blue colors for a while before opening my mouth.

“blue-“

“Sky Blue?”

sky blue.

It’s not even a funny name.

“… I think white would be better.”

“is that so?”

“Any color would suit you, but I think that would suit Claire’s atmosphere a little more. clean and pure.”

“Oh my… .”

Lee Ye-sol opened her eyes wide and nodded.

Then, I quietly called the staff to pack the top I chose.

“Then this one?”

“How about this?”

“Come to think of it, the professor doesn’t wear a smart watch. Is there any special reason?”

She took me around the store, purchasing seasonal Claire’s clothing and a couple of trinkets, such as modest earrings and necklaces.

“sorry. I only have two hands.”

Ye-Sol Lee smiles smirking at the envelopes magically floating behind me.

“I just have to buy one more now, so the professor will wait here for a while.”

“… I will.”

She took me to the shelter and busily walked alone.

“Sigh.”

Not physically tired.

But the mental fatigue was great.

In simple terms, it’s only about an hour.

I don’t know why I’m so tired when I’m just following Ye-Sol Lee and choosing a color that suits Claire.

-Sigh… … .

– Whoa, I’d rather work.

-How far did you go to the bathroom… ?

‘… … .’

Guys like me who can’t hide their tiredness by putting their luggage around.

Watching that, I suddenly felt a little sorry for Claire.

‘… I guess I’ll have to get a license.’

Every time I went out, I often dragged Claire with me because of my means of transportation.

In particular, when Baek Ha-na was still young, we would stop by marts and department stores together to find necessary supplies.

But today, when I was in the position of being dragged around by Lee Ye-Sol, I realized that I felt much more tired than I thought.

“professor.”

Lee Ye-sol faithfully kept what she said before leaving.

Lee Ye-sol, who returned within a few minutes, was holding a box with an antique black background in her hand.

She said, putting a box a little larger than the palm of my hand into one of the envelopes floating around.

“Shall we go?”

“… I will.”

I was the last to join the shelter, and I left the shelter before anyone else, receiving envious glances from tired men.

**

– I will tell the bailiff.

After arriving at the academy, Ye-Sol Lee told me that before going back to the street of light, and I took a lot of envelopes.

‘You’re tired… .’

I only hung out with Lee Ye-sol’s shopping for a short time, but I felt a similar level of mental fatigue as when I manipulated the crystal.

– If you hold on tomorrow, it’s the weekend… !!

-I heard there is a movie theater in the center. Shall we watch a movie?

-But the kids who went to practice today came back as rags.

As the evening began in earnest, the streets were full of leisurely students.

However, none of the students recognize me and pass by.

It was because the mental fatigue was considerable, so it killed the sense of existence.

Click.

Without being disturbed by anyone, I quietly passed through the maze, opened the front door, and entered the house.

The brightly lit hallway and the subtle smell greeted me first.

It was time to take off my shoes, change into slippers, and put mine next to Claire’s white coat.

Pia!!

A small but clear chirping sound came from the end of the hallway.

– Beep!!

A little rascal flew towards me with an angry face.

It moves its small wings quickly and in an instant, the guy on top of my shoulder chatters loudly.

– Pia! Beep!!

You could tell from the emotion in his voice that he was in a rough state of anger.

The problem is, why is the guy who used to follow Claire so angry?

‘… I want to kick them out.’

Read at noblemtl.com

Running with both feet on someone else’s shoulder.

I moved to the kitchen to find Claire to deal with this cheeky fellow, feeling her energy.

And I found out what the guy was angry about.

-Piaang!!

A charred pot and a frying pan with black smoke rising.

A few other ingredients on the table.

– Beep!! Beep! Beep!!

The fairy looked at the empty honey barrel and sugar bag and tapped my cheek with her small hand.

I ignored the noisy guy and called her name as she stood firm in front of the sink like a stone statue.

“Claire.”

“… … .”

I didn’t hear an answer, but instead, I could see the weak movement of my shoulders, which had shrunk more than in the morning.

‘I knew I couldn’t cook, but it’s terrible.’

I don’t know what he was trying to make, but judging from the honey and sugar he used, it seemed that he intended to make something for the guy who was going wild on his shoulder, not for himself.

It all seems to have failed.

I mobilized the magic that was floating around in the messy kitchen.

The magic power that responded to my will began to wind up the messy tableware and materials and organize them.

– Beep?

The rampaging guy also stopped stamping and calmed down, as if it was strange that things suddenly started floating around.

I called her again after confirming that the tidying up was over.

“Claire.”

“… … Yes.”

“You can’t do everything right the first time. I’ll tell you later, so for now, organize the things you brought.”

“… Jim, say… … ??”

Claire, who had difficulty turning her back, noticed the envelopes floating behind me and asked with her eyes wide open.

“This… … ?”

“It is your burden. Lee Ye-sol said the explanation was done, so take it and organize it.”

“uh… Yes. I will… .”

Claire quickly approached me and took the envelopes floating around in her arms one by one.

“then… … Excuse me for a moment.”

Then, as if running away, he left the kitchen.

chuang chuang.

– Pia.

This cheeky bastard called me with another slap on the cheek as if he wanted something from me.

However, he seemed to know what he wanted even without looking, so he opened Baek Ha-na’s cupboard and took out some children’s chocolates and peeled them.

“Please stay calm until we finish eating.”

– Beep?

I handed him chocolate.

misread.

-Bang-ang?!

After shouting loudly, he took the chocolate as if stealing it, spread it on the table, and started eating.

She peeled a few more just in case, set them aside, and moved on to prepare dinner for Claire.

Kwadang-!!

– Beep?

“… … ?”

A loud noise came from the hallway and I and the bad boy turned their heads at the same time.

Not long after, Claire returned, her face red to a serious degree.

Claire hid herself behind a wall.

“Me, school, professor, you… … ?”

“What.”

“Yeah, everything, nothing else… I heard that the professor chose everything you brought… … .”

“If there’s something you don’t like, tell Yesol Lee.”

“Oh, no… It’s not like that… That, that, really… I wonder if the ‘all’ professor chose… ?”

“Yes.”

“Ah… … .”

Pushyi-!!

White steam rose above Claire’s head.

It was a strange phenomenon that would never be seen by normal humans.
