Chapter 11: Soon 8 Years Old

It’s been about two years since the emperor’s visit.

Soon, I’ll be 8 years old.

I have been practicing creation magic a lot for these past two years.

After changing the shape of that lump of mithril, I kept using it for practicing creation magic over and over again.

However, since I didn’t want to waste them, I used only one magic stone.

All that time, there was but one material I really wanted to try out.

It’s my father’s handkerchief, which I used to make the <Misanga of Growth>.

And at last, I learned what material that is…

　Luxurious silk that contains a great amount of magic power.

　Obtained from moth cocoons that live only in places with a high concentration of magic power.

By the way, it’s expensive because these cocoons are only made by silkworms from the Demons’ Forest.

Just 500g of it costs about 4 platinum coins at a material store (around 10 million yen).

But I bought it!

So, what should I make…

I’m thinking about making something so that I can stow things on a dimensional pocket.

Ever since I appraised Grandpa and Grandma I wanted a <Space Storage>, but I couldn’t make it because the materials and magic stones I had seemed not to be good enough.

Then using Magic Silk and a magic stone, the result was,

　A rucksack you can put whatever you want in,

　Its capacity is proportional to the amount of magic power first poured into it,

　The user is the one who first pours magic power on it,

　Only the user or someone who poured magic power at the same time as them can open it.

　Creator: Leons Forster

I can’t believe it really produces a dimensional pocket…

Pocket… 4D… No, whatever.

However, it’s crime prevention functionality is pretty good…

It’s great that they can’t open it…

And at last, my magic power became something ludicrous.

　Leons Forster Lv.1

　Age: 7

　Tribe: Human

　Occupation: Creator

　Physical strength: 5 / 5

　Magic power: 31400 / 31400

　Power: 5

　Speed: 6

　Luck: 1000

　Attributes: None, Creation

　Skills:

　Appraisal, Creation Magic Lv.3,

　Non-attribute Magic Lv.1, Magical Operation Lv.5,

　Innocence Lv.2

　Titles:

　A person with memories from a different world,

　Sorcerer

My magic power seems to be growing at an increasingly fast pace, and then I realized how extraordinary the <Misanga of Growth> really is.

For example, if you start with 10 then it would usually go 10 + 1 + (1+1) + (2+1) +… = 10+1+2+3… and so on.

In my case, it goes 10 + 1×2 + (2+1)×2 + (6+1)×2 + … = 10+2+6+14…

However, it grew so much that the efficiency of the training dropped significantly and now it’s become difficult to increase it any more.

Then again, magical operation became level 5.

　Ability to manipulate one’s magic power inside the body,

　You can move it faster as the level goes up,

　Magic power increases as the level goes up as well,

　Obtained through one’s own effort,

　Lv.5: You can easily manipulate magic power even outside your body.

Also, I got the innocence skill.

I realized I got this after Sherry left.

　Can behave innocently,

　Increasingly difficult to get flustered over something as the level goes up,

　Lv.2: You can play a poker face unless you have a really big deal.

Now, from here the plan is to go to the Imperial Capital for my 8th birthday party.

The nobles usually hold their birthday parties at their residence in the Imperial Capital, it’s also common to invite noble families of equal or lower ranking.

And because of that, as my party is that of a Duke family, it will attract a great number of people.

Aah, I feel like running away…

My birthday is in July, but I’ll have a special training at my grandparents’ house until the beginning of the school term in January.

Then, after I turn 8 I’ll be living on the Imperial Capital.

I’m looking forward to what kind of training is waiting for me!

<1 week later>

Preparations for going to the Imperial Capital are over.

Well, I finished packing everything so I guess I’m ready.

“Then, let’s go.”(Diork)

“Haah, I understand.”(Leo)

“Don’t be sad, we can come back later.”(Diork)

It’s not that I’m lonely, the problem is…

I don’t wanna go to the party!

“Father, I want to attend to Leo’s birthday party!”(Sherry)

Sherry hurriedly told to the emperor.

“Wh-Who did you hear it from...”(Orton)

“It doesn’t matter, I want to go!”(Sherry)

“You can’t. Exactly because I knew that it would be like this that I didn’t tell you about it.”(Orton)

Said the emperor, holding his head.

“Why not? It’s fine isn’t it?”(Sherry)

“If you attend only to Leo-kun’s party and not to the other nobles’, they will be jealous of the Forster family, you know?”(Orton)

“It’s fine either way, isn’t it?”(Sherry)

“I-Is that so? Even so I won’t give you permission to go this time.”(Orton)

“Eh~ I want to go~ ”(Sherry)

“In that case, why don’t you call Leo-kun to pay an informal visit to the castle the day before or after his birthday?”(Orton)

Said the emperor with a grin.

“Can I do that?”(Sherry)

Sherry asked back with a dubious tune.

“Basically, if you call it as just a visit from a friend of Sherry’s then the other noble families have nothing to do with it.”(Orton)

“I’ll do that then.”(Sherry)

“Yosh, so let’s wait for Leo-kun to arrive at the Imperial Capital.”(Orton)

At that time, on a carriage going to the Imperial Capital.

*shiver*

Eh? I suddenly felt a shiver down my spine.

“Aah, I don’t want to go to the Capital~ ”(Leo)

I said, unconsciously.

“Don’t say that. You’ll be able to meet your sister and the others after all this time.”(Diork)

Speaking of which, it’s been 2 years since I last met my sister, and I haven’t met my brothers since my first birthday.

I wonder if they have grown up well.

Going to the Capital makes me little glad, but I couldn’t beat the feeling of not wanting to attend to the party.

Haah, I’m really depressed…

After about a week, I finally arrived at the Imperial Capital.

I didn’t get carsick this time because I got used to it on that trip when I was 5.

But it was plain boring.

The whole trip I was just looking outside and doing nothing.

However, as I approached the Capital, the feelings of ‘I want to go home’ and ‘I want to continue’ kept clashing on my heart.

This way, I safely arrived at our residence on the Imperial Capital...
