067 – It’s difficult to buy my own house! #7

“Ladies and gentlemen, and distinguished guests from all over the world. welcome. I am the owner of this palace, the Duke of Phrygia. It’s a modest place, but please feel comfortable—”

A blonde dwarf climbed onto the podium and shouted something.

It wasn’t a very important story.

The important thing is that chocolate fountains are spraying incessantly in the banquet hall.

“… Chocolate Fountain! Naru, I’ve never seen anything like this!”

Naru put her cup on the fountain and drank the chocolate.

Seeing this, the wizards in dresses whispered.

“What family is he from?”

“Has there ever been a child like that?”

Naru is very popular even in this place full of wizards.

Soon, Naru shouted as if she had found something.

“Oh, look over there! There are a lot of kids who look the same age as Naru!”

Where Naru pointed her finger, there were really a lot of kids.

Judging by the cone-shaped hats and wands that looked like magic wands, they seemed to be little wizards.

Probably the sons and daughters of the wizards who attended this banquet.

“yes? Tywin! There’s Tywin!”

Naru waving her hand.

“Ow, shack… ! Tywin! nice to meet you!”

Looking at where Naru pointed, there really was Tywin Cladeco.

The gray girl of Princess Power A is rare in the world.

Originally, it was A+, but it dropped to A-, but it was amazing to see it recover to A again.

“Oh my God, I have to be entangled with Naru until here.”

“Miss Tywin, do you know that Barbara girl?”

Tywin sweeps his forehead.

And the children talking to Tywin next to him.

Tywin shook his head.

“I don’t know. How can a guy who is not even a wizard receive an invitation to a banquet… .”

“Ow, shack… ! You forgot Naru’s name! Tywin is crazy! it’s okay! Naru is Tywin’s friend! I can understand!”

“… … .”

Tywin kept his mouth shut.

Seeing Tywin like that, Naru tugged at my sleeve.

“Dad! Then Naru will be playing with Tywin!”

“yes? Okay then.”

Naru, who is only in the first year of elementary school, would be bored if she followed the adults.

I’d rather be with my peers.

Warak-.

Naru hugged my leg once and ran towards the kids.

I watched the small lantern disappear among the children and suddenly noticed that I was left alone in this place.

So what should I do now?

Once I received the invitation, I came to the palace of the Duke of Phrygia.

“Where is Brigitte?”

I looked around.

There were only people wearing conical hats, so it was unclear where Brigitte had disappeared.

As I was paying attention to my surroundings, I heard someone giggling.

Soon, with a coughing sound, someone spoke to me.

It was a man wearing glasses and holding a thick book in his hand.

“I am a body that has participated in every Walpurgis Night, but you are a face I have never seen before. Excuse me, but which school are you from?”

which wave?

I don’t have anything like that.

As I frowned, I heard a chuckle from the side.

“There’s no way barbarians have schools.”

“Who invited that guy?”

“Only the clothes are decent.”

Indeed it is.

This is what Brigitte said about the rudeness of wizards.

There was a feeling that I was alone in this place.

It felt like a bee visiting an ant’s nest.

Yeah, that’s exactly what it felt like.

Just then someone shouted.

“Aren’t you the Duke of Judas by any chance? God, I couldn’t recognize him because he was dressed up like a new bridegroom. I never thought I would meet a nobleman in a place like this.”

Who is it.

You’re a man I don’t know

He was a tall handsome man with a face I didn’t know at all.

However, his voice spread among the people and soon created a small commotion.

“Isn’t Judas a thief?”

“That person is… ? I thought he wasn’t an ordinary savage… .”

“… Let’s run away before we get into a fight.”

The wizards soon murmured and cleared their throats and withdrew.

Just when I thought it was a very strange situation, a tall handsome man came up to me and said in a small voice.

“Yuda, what are you doing here?”

“Oh, are you Salome? What are you doing here? I didn’t recognize him because he was in disguise.”

“I was tracking some ‘book’. There’s a good chance he’ll show up at this banquet today. Yuda, didn’t you come for that book too? Otherwise, why would you come to a magician’s banquet like this?”

it’s a book

Could it be that Salomedo Platan’s book “God” is being aimed at?

It’s pretty tricky for me to steal the goods this guy is after.

“Is the book called ‘God’ by any chance?”

“No, that’s not the name of the book I’m aiming for. However, it is a book with incredibly valuable information. I heard that you can buy an armed fortress with one book.”

belt!

Buying a fort with one book!?

I was really taken aback.

I was so surprised that I clung to the ceiling on all fours without even realizing it and crawled on it!

“There’s a person clinging to the ceiling!”

“I-what is that… ! I can’t believe my eyes!!!”

“Kyaaa I must have been possessed by a demon! Who called the exorcist… !!!”

“Judah, come down quickly! “Riding the ceiling” is not something you show off with such advanced skills!”

After Salome gave a small cry, I calmed down a bit and came down to the ground.

Anyway, I was really surprised.

Buying a fort with one book?

Among the artifacts of the Demiurges, are the ‘Yahbach’s Spear’ and ‘Efar’s Necklace’ worth that much?

It was the moment when the blood of the thief in me was boiling.

Soon Salome clicked her tongue.

“But magicians are unlucky after all. Glasses men who like to chat in a language only they know. Anyway, I’m going If I talk to you any more, I’ll get suspicious.”

pat-.

Salome disappeared through the crowd.

I’m alone again – just as I was thinking about it, the lights flashed on the stage.

“Hi everyone. I am El Cladeco.”

Standing in the light was El Cladeco holding a microphone.

The woman standing next to El Cladeco was the person I met this afternoon.

“A golden Cladeco. Isn’t the next to you Friede-sama, who inherited the white color with the theory of ‘relativity magic’ this time?”

“It’s awesome. If you’re given a color, it means you’re the best wizard of your time, right? I never thought I’d see them both in one place. This Walpurgis Night is amazing.”

“Of course! It’s the first exchange between the Mage’s Tower of the West and Graham Academy’s lab.”

The noise of the people was loud.

pat-.

Soon another light came on on the stage.

It was Brigitte who appeared under that spotlight.

“Is it Brigitte?”

“He’s a black wizard.”

“The Black Wizard participated in the Walpurgis Banquet? Isn’t this your first time?”

People’s chatter spread to a strange feeling.

Was Brigitte’s appearance quite unexpected?

“Can ‘black’ be called a wizard in the first place? They are simply destroyers and destroyers.”

“that’s right. Magic isn’t like that. It is the miracle itself that contains the secret of the creation of the world. To use it only to break and destroy something like that… .”

“Shhh, you can’t say things like that. But you’re one of the heroes who defeated the demon lord.”

“But the facts are the facts.”

Very noisy.

It seemed that Brigitte was not just highly praised among the people.

From what I’ve heard, magic that wizards think of is something creative and creative.

So, he must have been jealous that Brigitte, a master of destructive magic, was bestowed with a ‘color’.

Scratches the losers who can’t climb on the roof.

I didn’t care.

Brigitte herself wouldn’t mind.

* * *

“I’m going to die-.”

Brigitte, who had come off the stage, came towards me and sighed.

I handed him a glass of wine.

“I hear you’re good at presenting.”

“What is this? What about Naru?”

“I’m playing with the kids.”

“yes?”

“Rather than that, I heard that your family is announcing a book comparable to Artifact today. I heard it’s a book that even a saint can buy.”

“… Was there such a thing I wouldn’t have had the energy to write such a book. That’s Walpurgis. It’s a dying family. Even though they brag about being descendants of the first people.”

It was Brigitte who clicked her tongue.

The boy looked around and spoke.

“It’s all nonsense. How you appear to others is far more important than magic. People who have been thinking about that for a long time. Like pretenders.”

“Hey, what are you saying to the family you were born into?”

someone said sarcastically.

I turned around and saw a woman wearing glasses.

She had freckles on her face, but she was pretty.

hair is white.

Her breasts, tucked into her dress, were quite large.

He was wearing gauze on his face, but it looked like he had been slapped on the cheek by someone.

Brigitte frowned at the appearance of a woman out of nowhere.

“Gudrid?”

“It must be Sister Gudrid! She’s your third sister! Also, after participating in the event, isn’t it polite to greet the head of household and mother first? Isn’t that right, mother?”

The woman called ‘Gudrid’ turned her head.

There was an old lady holding a fan, gray-haired, pale, with red makeup on her lips.

The blue eyes behind the glasses were exceptionally cool.

Wouldn’t it be like this if there was a strict wife of a first-generation chaebol?

He was a man who knew how to overwhelm people with his gaze.

This must be the real ‘noble’.

When the old lady looked at Brigitte, Brigitte was taken aback.

“you are… .”

“Brigitte. It’s been a while. You look healthy. But you seem to have forgotten your etiquette. It seems like you hang out with bad friends.”

you’re a bad friend

I looked around.

I was the only one who could be called a bad friend.

But the old lady was wrong.

“I am not a bad friend. You’re a fucking bad friend.”

As I laughed, a woman called Gudrid stood up like a cat struck by lightning.

“Ji, how safe is the thief right now! This is Bathory von Walpurgis! To the great hostess of the family—”

“done. It’s foolish to talk about etiquette to someone who doesn’t know manners.”

Shuk-.

As Gudrid said something, the old lady raised her hand.

Gudrid tried to say more, but then shut his mouth.

The old lady, whose name turned out to be Bathory, came out and looked at Brigitte slowly.

Then he spoke calmly in an emotionless voice.

“Brigitte, don’t be direct. Now stop rebelling and come back to your family.”

“rebellion… ?”

Brigitte frowned.

The expression on his face showed a very bewildered feeling.

“It’s funny when someone who takes my place off the family table speaks of rebellion. Was I your family in the first place? You abandoned me just because my hair was a different color!”

It was Brigitte who was screaming.

Soon, the people who were making noise around me gathered their eyes one by one.

At the moment when my face was all burning, the old lady said without changing the color of her face.

“Bury the past. What matters is what we can do in the future. Brigitte, the lord has prepared a place for you. If you stay calm, the wedding party will come soon.”

“What? marriage? What do you decide on your own?”

“You are twenty-five. I can’t delay any longer. Your older sisters are all married and have children. Your older sister, Gudrid, already had a baby at the age of 20.”

All the women of the Walpurgis family get married early and well.

It felt like I had a vague idea of why Brigitte was conscious of her age of twenty-five.

“… under.”

Brigitte wanted to say something, but she was angry and bewildered, so she put on an expression that she was not going to say anything.

Without giving Brigitte a chance, the old lady added.

“You are my daughter. You have an obligation to obey my words. Because that’s what mother and daughter are. You will find out when you have your own daughter.”

“I’m not getting married!!! I won’t give birth to a daughter even if I die!!! I would rather kill myself by biting my tongue than end up like you!!!”

It’s very hot.

Soon Brigitte tugged at my arm.

“I was an idiot for thinking I could do anything in a place like this. Judas, let’s go! No need to waste time in a place like this!”

want to go?

Should I call Naru—thought so, the old lady said as everything was thrown into confusion.

“Today, in cooperation with the Graham Academy, Walpurgis’ prestige will rise high into the sky again. Brigitte, your role is also important here. We will study the homunculus.”

“… What!?”

“In that sense, Brigitte, I want to talk about this book. There were quite a few phrases that couldn’t be interpreted. Brigitte, you would know. Especially about ‘Aru’.”

Aru?

Shuk-.

The old woman pulled out a book from the bag she was holding in her hand.

It was a rather thick book.

“Yes, this is your diary. It is written about the research of the homunculus in the legend. When I discovered this, my hair stood on end in many ways. A realm of creation beyond magic. The hope of the Walpurgis family. If we join hands with Graham Academy, the development of homunculus is a dream—.”

“That, bring that to me!!! Why do you look at my diary as you please!!!”

pat-.

Brigitte took the book away.

Of course, the old lady was relaxed.

“It’s a copy of the essentials. The original is kept by the head of household.”

“… … !”

Right now, Brigitte’s face was a silent scream—the words fit perfectly.

Then, maybe he came to his senses right away, he pulled my hand and headed to a place where people were rare.

“This fucking foot!”

“Wow. Calm down.”

“I can’t calm down! It’s the worst. Needless to say… . Judas, you must steal a book. A book owned by the head of the Walpurgis family!!!”

Wow – it was Brigitte grabbing my collar.

It seems out of my mind.

Isn’t this the first time Brigitte has been seen so disheveled?

Even when I met the demon king at the demon castle, it was more solemn than this.

At this point, I have no choice but to ask.

“What the hell is a homunculus? What else is Aru? It sounds like a similar name to Naru.”

A moment of silence filled the gap between me and Brigitte.

Around the time when only the chatter of the people at the banquet hall echoed loudly all over the place-.

“… … .”

Brigitte glanced at her surroundings.

Then he said little.

“Homunculus means an artificial life form created by magic in legends. And Aru… . it’s my family The only one in the world… .”

Emotions seemed very confused.

I have only one thing to say here.

“My pay is high. After all, he is the king of thieves. But since he bought expensive clothes for me and Naru, why don’t we fight with them? Okay, I’ll steal it for you today.”

I’m starting to get a little worried too.

Aru and Naru.

About the homunculus.
