[Eng] Keizoku wa Maryoku Nari Chapter 13

Chapter 13: I am Taken to See Sherry

After leaving the house, uncle crossed through the city very quickly.

Amidst the people walking on the streets and above the roofs, basically, we went to castle through the shortest way possible.

However, no one noticed us because of uncle’s <Covert>.

Then, we immediately arrived at the castle.

“Uncle, you didn’t have to hurry like that, though?”(Leo)

“What are you saying? I don’t think it’s a good idea to keep a girl waiting.”(Damian)

“Y-Yes.”(Leo)

“Even if you overslept.”(Damian)

“Yes~ ”(Leo)

“Then, let’s go.”(Damian)

Saying so, he jumped over the castle walls while carrying me.

“Eeh!? Let’s go through the gate normally.”(Leo)

“What are you talking about? I’m supposed to bring you in secretly, so there’s no point in passing through the gate.”(Damian)

“But if you can jump over like this, I’m worried about the crime prevention system of this place.”(Leo)

                                        _father

“Don’t worry, I and the hero are the only ones who can do something like this.”(Damian)

“Eeh? Really?”(Leo)

“It’s my job to deal with it if someone who can do that comes, though.”(Damian)

“What does uncle do?”(Leo)

It was said he’s part of the special forces, but what does he do?

“I’m part of a unit under the emperor’s direct control.”(Damian)

“Is that any different from the knights?”(Leo)

“The knights need a lot of permissions from the minister to move, they also have other works like maintenance of security in times of war, my special forces is the elite who escorts the emperor, we also move directly under his command, like how he asked me to do this today.”(Damian)

“Hee~ elite huh~ that’s great!”(Leo)

“Thank you, we have arrived at the princess’ room.”(Damian)

Saying that, he drops me in front of the door.

*knock knock*

“Princess, I have brought Leo-kun.”(Damian)

Silence.

Hm? There’s no reaction?

“Sherry, are you in there? I’m sorry for being late.”(Leo)

Then, the door opens.

Sherry appears in a bad mood.

“Late.”(Sherry)

“I’m sorry, it was hard to wake Leo-kun up~”(Damian)

Hearing that, Sherry looked at me.

“Does Leo not care about me?”(Sherry)

“Th-There’s no such thing! It’s just that I was so tired from yesterday’s party that I couldn’t wake up easily.”(Leo)

“Muu, even though I wanted to go yesterday as well~”(Sherry)

Sherry said with watery eyes.

“Don’t cry! I’m really, really sorry. I’ll do anything so please forgive me.”(Leo)

“Fuu~ Anything huh… I understand, I forgive you.”(Sherry)

Fuu, it seems that I was forgiven somehow.

But, at what price…

“Well, since you guys have made up, I’m leaving here.”(Damian)

Saying that, uncle disappeared in an instant.

Really, covert skill is so useful…

“Now, enter.”(Sherry)

“This room is so girlish.”(Leo)

The whole room was pink-colored and there was a lot of stuffed animals.

“Is that so?”(Sherry)

“Yes, do you like stuffed animals?”(Leo)

“Yes, I do.”(Sherry)

“Then give me a minute, please.”(Leo)

Since there’s no material, I’ll try to make a stuffed animal with magic power alone.

Then, I imagined a penguin and made it.

“Here, I’ll give you this, so cheer up.”(Leo)

“Are you sure? Understood, I’ll cheer up.”(Sherry)

“Yes~ Thank God~”(Leo)

With this, I can be at ease.

“Then, here’s a gift from me.”(Sherry)

She gave me a beautiful necklace made of mithril.

“Thank you, can I wear it?”(Leo)

“Wait, I’ll return the magic stone from before.”(Sherry)

Sherry said that and handed me a magic stone that shone as much as my owns.

“Ooh, you worked hard. But is that fine?”(Leo)

“It’s okay. I’ve been always pouring magic power on that one and it became very bright, so this time I’ll start a new one from scratch.”(Sherry)

“I see.”(Leo)

“Besides, I want to see you using magic on that necklace.”(Sherry)

“Is that so? Well, fine.”(Leo)

“Yay~ ”(Sherry)

“Then, there’s something I want to do.”(Leo)

“Okay.”(Sherry)

Receiving the necklace and the magic stone, I used creation magic.

At that time, as usual, they shone and it succeeded.

Then, the result was a necklace with a round magic stone in it.

“Looks like it worked.”(Leo)

“What kind of effect does it have?”(Sherry)

“Hmm, let me see.”(Leo)

<Necklace of Communication>

　A necklace that allows one to talk to people who have poured magic power on its magic stone,

　It’s done via a registered magic item.

　The registration method is just to touch this necklace.

　Connected(registered item):

　-Sherry(Necklace of Love)

　Creator: Leons Forster

Ooh, I made an item for communication as planned.

I wanted it because there isn’t any convenient means to contact someone like a telephone.

“For now, I’ll try wearing it.”(Leo)

[ED: on the raw Leo hands it over to Sherry and tell her to wear it, but I think it’s a typo since it’s him who’ll be wearing it.]

Then,

⎡Sherry.⎦(Leo)

“Eh?”(Sherry)

⎡Can you hear me, Sherry?⎦(Leo)

“What is this?”(Sherry)

“It transmits your voice to the other party when you want to.”(Leo)

“Hee~ That’s so great. I’ll give it a try.”(Sherry)

⎡Leo, can you hear it, Leo?⎦(Sherry)

⎡Yes, I can.⎦(Leo)

⎡Amazing! We can talk like this.⎦(Sherry)

⎡It works even if it’s from far away.⎦(Leo)

⎡Yay~ ⎦(Sherry)

“With this we can talk anywhere and anytime.”(Sherry)

*chills*

Apparently, I made something scary.

“Y-Yes.”(Leo)

“I’m looking forward to it.”(Sherry)

“Y-Yeah.”(Leo)

“Ah, that’s right. Thanks to that magic stone my magic power has increased a lot, you know.”(Sherry)

“You sure worked hard.”(Leo)

Okay, let’s see how effective the <Necklace of Love> was…

That’s an awful growth huh~ (Like you’re one to talk)

As expected, growth boost items are great~

“I’ve been practicing magical operation everyday as well.”(Sherry)

“Good girl, good girl.”(Leo)

I said, while patting her head.

“Hehe, actually, there’s something I want Leo’s help with.”(Sherry)

“Something you want my help with?”(Leo)

“Yes, I want you to play with my magic power.”(Sherry)

“E-Excuse me from only that.”(Leo)

“Earlier, you said you’d do anything, right?”(Sherry)

“Uuh, I understand.”(Leo)

A man doesn’t go back on his word.

“Then please.”(Sherry)

Saying that, Sherry lied down on the bed.

“Haah, let’s do it then.”(Leo)

I gave up and started moving Sherry’s magic power.

“Hm? It’s become easier to move.”(Leo)

As expected, she’s growing.

“Is that so? Maybe that’s because I do it everyday huh~”(Sherry)

Gosh, it’s starting…

“Since we haven’t done it in a long time, it’s very enjoyable~~”(Sherry)

(I’m innocent, I’m innocent)

“Fua~~~~”(Sherry)

(I’m innocent, I’m innocent, I’m innocent, I’m innocent….)

I think it’s been more than 10 minutes since then.

I’m tired.

Sherry has fellen asleep.

“It seems you had fun, huh.”

Suddenly, I heard a voice from behind.

When I turned quickly, the one who was there was my uncle.

“You surprised me~ Uncle, did you see that just now?”(Leo)

“Yes, thank goodness this room is soundproof.”(Damian)

“Aah, this is the worst~”(Leo)

What have I done in front of other people?

Aaarrgh! I’m so embarrassed I want to die…

“Well, since you said you’d do anything, a man can’t go back on his word.”(Damian)

“Uuh…”(Leo)

“More importantly, you can manipulate others’ magic power quite well at your age, huh.”(Damian)

“I happened to teach Sherry how to manipulate it, so I can do it if I want to.”(Leo)

“No no, isn’t it great that you can manipulate magic power at such at that age?”(Damian)

“Eeh~ Is that so?”(Leo)

“Yes, I’ve recently been practicing it by using a magic tool that absorbs magic power, there aren’t many people who can’t manipulate it, you know.”(Damian)

“Is there something like that?”(Leo)

“Yes. Initially it was intended to absorb the magic power of prisoners, but it was found out that you can train your magic power by letting it absorb all your magic power and then repeating it.”(Damian)

“Hee~ That seems useful, huh.”(Leo)

“Well, it’s troublesome to reach level 3 in magical operation so that you can train your magic power by pouring magic on magic stones, furthermore, you don’t really need it to use magic.”(Damian)

“Eeh~ But I need it for creation magic.”(Leo)

“Come to think of it, Leo-kun uses creation magic, huh.”(Damian)

“Yes.”(Leo)

“Magic that no one can use, huh...”(Damian)

“Well, that’s because I have a lot of magic power.”(Leo)

“That may be the main cause, but it might have to do with magical operation as well.”(Damian)

“Why is that?”(Leo)

“Because of that magic tool I mentioned before, there is hardly anyone who can manipulate magic power, and if you need magical operation to use creation magic, that makes sense why no one can use it.”(Damian)

“Oh, I see.”(Leo)

“Now, it’s getting dark, so let’s go back Leo-kun.”(Damian)

“Understood.”(Leo)

“Are you sure you don’t want to say something to the princess before leaving?”(Damian)

“That’s okay. Because I have this.”(Leo)

I showed my necklace to uncle.

“Creation magic can also create things like that, huh.”(Damian)

“Yes, that’s because it’s something only at this level.”(Leo)

“But it’s still amazing to be able to reach this level.”(Damian)

“That’s not true.”(Leo)

“There you go again~ Now then, come here, I’ll carry you back.”(Damian)

“Eh? Are you carrying me again?”(Leo)

“Yes, that’s because we have to go secretly.”(Damian)

Then, on the way back, uncle carried me at a tremendous speed again…
