Chapter 80: In the royal capital

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

『Did you neatly return to the academy? Did pirates attack on the journey?』(Spirit-san)

『It was all right this time. We were attacked by a little demon, but it was not so strong』(Tsuchio)

『That's good. So how about the two who I gave my protection? How's it going?』(Spirit-san)

『Yes, they haven't evolved yet and I don't know. What kind of protection did you give them?』(Tsuchio)

『It is not much different from the dragon protection. Well, I didn´t limit the evolutionary destination, so the content is only a little. Growth acceleration only』(Spirit-san)

『Why? Is it a matter of compatibility?』(Tsuchio)

『No, there were quite a few evolutionary destinations from the original. Especially that shadow girl, it's already completely decided.』(Spirit-san)

『Is that what you know?』(Tsuchio)

『Somehow though. It was only a feeling.』(Spirit-san)

『Hee...Can you tell me what it is?』(Tsuchio)

『I really don't know what it is, just somehow. The future is uncertain, so it can't be understood clearly.』(Spirit-san)

『Well, that's right. What do you want as the next souvenir?』(Tsuchio)

『There is no wish, you only have to decide yourself. If it's a present from Tsuchio, then I am glad with anything.』(Spirit-san)

『A few stones?』(Tsuchio)

『I forgot to mention, within the bounds of common sense』(Spirit-san)

『It's a joke. Then, I have to think about a wonderful souvenir that makes you cry from joy』(Tsuchio)

『Huhu, I expect that. Well then, enjoy your holiday.』(Spirit-san)

『Yes, you also work hard every day.』(Tsuchio)

The branch is taken away and I lay on the bed. I came back from Cyano islands to the academy, but I still have summer vacation. Lucas has returned home, so only Shadow-san and I are in this room. The question is how to spend the remaining summer vacation now and what kind of souvenir I shall make for Spirit-san. I still have two weeks left, so I might as well go out somewhere. Shall we go somewhere where we've never been?...But if that's the case, we should have spent the whole summer vacation. And a place in the vicinity is roughly gone....

“Well, the Maronma mountain isn't very suitable and it is troublesome because there are a lot of adventurers. Well, I wonder what has become of that item box. Shall I ask sensei next time? More than that, where do we go now.... Shadow-san, is there a good place?” (Tsuchio)

Shadow-san who got Spirit-san´s protection seemed to have her evolutionary growth accelerated, because there seems to be an effect of growth promotion. After all, I want to train properly.... Nichrome also has the flesh of a devil beast, so she will also evolve. Where shall we go?

“It is safe in the kingdom, after all. There aren't any strong devil beasts, but will I get stuck in sightseeing? Do you want to go to the library, Shadow-san? Ah, I don't want to take Ruu and the others. There are various books...and you can even get a pink goodwill. Well, we will go if you want to go. While we're in the royal city, we will go there once." (Tsuchio)

Last time I went there, I was too busy to do sightseeing. Now, let's look at it clearly. The place I want to go to in the kingdom...is the library only for the guild in the royal castle. I've never seen a shop before...but well, there's not much I want to see. I don't even know what is there.

“Perhaps Yukurishisu-san is coming. Well, since she became empress, she would be busy and probably doesn't have time." (Tsuchio)

It's already late today, so we should start at tomorrow morning. It is easy to return because we have passed the road many times. All we have to worry about are thieves and devil beasts.

I departed to the capital immediately and arrived after three days as planned. I took a lodging at the Puppy pavilion inn I had stayed in before and decided to go sightseeing. If it’s the capital, many people and things gather together.

“There are plenty of stalls in the commercial district." (Tsuchio)

“Well, it's a commercial district. If you put out money, everyone seems to be able to open a store." (Nichrome)

“Various things are on sale like weapons, foods and accessories.... They also sell magical tools." (Tsuchio)

“Watch out, there are a lot of fakes among them. There are also bargains sometimes.” (Nichrome)

In such stalls, you can get cheat weapons or otherworldly things. Well, such a good story is only rolling with astronomical probability.

“Shall I use appraisal and look for rarities? Even if it looks devilish, deception of magical power is a very difficult technique, so I can judge it with my sensor." (Nichrome)

“Are you serious? Let me know if you found something interesting.” (Tsuchio)

“Understood, I will start the search now." (Nichrome)

A sensor came out of her ears and Nichrome started to look around. Then, do I also look around the stalls?

There are many shops in the commercial district in the commoner’s town. Grocery stores, clothing stores and weapon shops are all lined up. It seems that they also sell ornaments and slaves, but only aristocrats and rich people buy them. Because commoners don't buy it so much, such shops are near the second wall.

“Is there anything you want today?” (Nichrome)

“Well, I don't want anything. I wonder if there are good things for Ruu and the others who aren't here." (Tsuchio)

“I am satisfied if I can stay with master. Speaking of which, are you a father?” Nichrome

“Me too!"

“No, it's like a necklace or a ring... that's it, it's not about me. "

“I can recreate it with my magic, the same as this dress. "

“There is no need to use father's money. Oh, but I want you to find the ornaments that suit me "

“Oh, that might be nice. I also want to choose."

I see, make it themselves huh. Really, Ruu and the others are really troublesome for sure. That's fine, but I feel a little lonely. I want to cause some troubles too....

“I am not very good at that kind of thing, though.... Well, why don't you try it? If it's strange, just say something." (Tsuchio)

“I know, if Tsuchio will be fine." (Nichrome)

“Thank you." (Tsuchio)

Well then, will I look for something that looks good for Ruu? I should also search something for Rin, Lime, Nichrome and Shadow-san. Nichrome can not make it with her own magical power like Ruu. She told me that "Anything like this isn't necessary for such things and weapons." But...there is no problem if you force it. Worst of all, I just have to order. I have plenty of money, and I'm not going to buy something expensive!

＜Yukurishisu´s POV＞

“Huu......the capital for the first time in a year" (Yukurishisu)

“This is the human capital, there are indeed many people. They really have a good reproduction growth. Don't they worry that we are demons?"( Wo-kun)

“It seems they know about it by magical power, but it is okay because we hide. Rather than that, the work is fine isn't it?" (Yukurishisu)

“There is no problem, one week from today is completely holiday. Well, after that we have plenty of appointments scheduled" (Wo-kun)

“Well, I got a break finally..." (Yukurishisu)

“To do that, we had to put a lot of appointments ahead for this schedule. I was so busy last month." (Wo-kun)

“Was it because of that!? That's why the schedule was so strange!” (Yukurishisu)

“Well, thanks to that, we came to the kingdom like this. As long as the result is good, everything is fine. So, are you not going to search for that Tsuchio child?" (Wo-kun)

“That's right. I'm sure that it's summer vacation now and he probably is here in the capital" (Yukurishisu)

“What would you do if he hasn't come?" (Wo-kun)

“I will head to the academy and leave a message. For now, I hope to let him know that I am alive. Well, I hope to meet and talk with him if possible." (Yukurishisu)

“Then let's start searching quickly. Is there a guess?" (Wo-kun)

“Yes. I remember the inn where he stayed last time, so let's go there. It was a good inn, so he should be staying there again." (Yukurishisu)

“However, it's midday now. Isn't he probably outside?" (Wo-kun)

“Well, that's right...then let's go to the library first. It's a place that Tsuchio said he wanted to go, so maybe he is there." (Yukurishisu)

“I understand. Milady has heard a lot from him." (Wo-kun)

“Well, I heard about it when I listened to a chat. I just happened to remember it. Hey, if you leave too far, you will get stranded. If people stray in places like this, it is hard to meet up again." (Yukurishisu)

“That’s nostalgic… in the past when we went to the imperial capital, milady ran away and strayed away from us and we found you trembling at the corner of a street crying. I was anxious that you were kidnapped..." (Wo-kun)

“At that time, I was really scared...and I remember being scolded then” (Yukurishisu)

“Don't do such a thing this time. Even though we have ceased fighting, we are still enemies for humans" (Wo-kun)

“The reverse is also true. When will it become possible to interchange? I hope I can do it while I am alive." (Yukurishisu)

“Both’s roots are deep, so it isn't something that can be solved easily. Let's do it in long-term." (Wo-kun)

“Well, I'm looking for Tsuchio now.” (Yukurishisu)

“The library, I heard that it is a place where large quantities of books are stored in..." (Wo-kun)

“It has a great amount of books...which can be seen if you pay the admission fee, right?” (Yukurishisu)

“Looks like it. There are plenty of history books, tactical books and child books. There are also magic books to those who aren't very strong." (Wo-kun)

“We also have a library at the empire, but it isn't open to the public. It is because there were so many secrets." (Yukurishisu)

“Apparently, those kinds of things seems to be in a different place here, therefore this library is open for the public." (Wo-kun)

“Looking for Tsuchio is also a bone break in this area.... I'll ask the receptionist now." (Yukurishisu)

－A few minutes later－

“Milady, how was it?" (Wo-kun)

“It seems that Tsuchio didn't come, because he takes his familiars with him normally and the receptionist didn't remember him coming today" (Yukurishisu)

“Do you want to wait in the library?” (Wo-kun)

“No, let's go outside and look for him. I want to see him very much for a moment because he came to the capital. Once we meet him, we could go home at once." (Yukurishisu)

“Milady...” (Wo-kun)

“Well, it doesn't mean that we would play around! What? Look at the capitals of other countries and see if there is any part that can be used for our royal capital! It's not fun!" (Yukurishisu)

“Haa, then shall we go through the capital while looking for him?" (Wo-kun)

“This is a great place. The street near the gate was also amazing, but the commercial area is at a different digit." (Wo-kun)

“There are a lot of stalls and it is really lively. But it's hard to find Tsuchio." (Yukurishisu)

“What kind of demons are with him?" (Wo-kun)

“His familiars are a dragon, slime, unicorn and a shadow. They're all women" (Yukurishisu)

“It's a pretty conspicuous group...well, will they be buried by this crowd of people?" (Wo-kun)

“First of all, let's see from end to end. I don't necessarily want to stay here, but here is where the most of the people gather in the kingdom." (Yukurishisu)

“Hey, older brother! How about this skewers, I will keep it cheap!" (Shop owner 1)

“It looks yummy, the fragrance of spices stimulates my appetite. Please give me one." (Wo-kun)

“Please also look over here! Fresh fruits!" (Shop owner 2)

“After a salty one, I have to clean my mouth with a fruit. Please give me some." (Wo-kun)

“You have a good appetite! Please also look at my mushrooms!" (Shop owner 3)

“Huh, this is thick.... and the sauce with a strong taste is exquisite, let's buy it too." (Wo-kun)

“...Wo-kun, you absolutely enjoyed it more than me, didn't you? Why are you eating everything you see!?" (Yukurishisu)

“Huaheehahueihuahuhuahhuehu, huohuhuohuhuohuhhuahuohuihuanahuaihuahhuhuhuahe" (Wo-kun)

“Don't talk while having something in your mouth, that's vulgar! Later, it is a mess! Talk after swallowing!” (Yukurishisu)

“Gulp. This is a reconnaissance, I will make use of the kingdom’s culture first hand" Wo-kun

“It is almost the same as what you said to me before.... We shouldn't spend so much money because we don't have much" (Yukurishisu)

“I know, I will finish with that fruit juice." (Wo-kun)

“No juice, absolutely no.... You are looking properly for Tsuchio, right?" (Yukurishisu)

“...Yes, of course." (Wo-kun)

“What, really? You definitely haven't looked for him!" (Yukurishisu)

“No, you don't have to look for him anymore. I found him. That would be him with that dragon and unicorn over there.” (Wo-kun)

“You made it, Wo-kun! You found him faster than I imagined! For the time being, I will talk to him, so Wo-kun you eat that food!" (Yukurishisu)

“Ah, Milady!...You were looking forward to seeing him, so I let you talk for a while. I won't disturb. Ah, excuse me, one juice please.” (Wo-kun)
