chapter 47
47 – Episode 47 Brothers go through the same hardships
“Ohh… Yohane’s unrequited love.”
It’s quite interesting, but Stella decided to be content with just accessing the
information.
She wasn’t someone to get involved in or get in the way of someone’s love.
“Let’s go somewhere else.”
So, at the booth I was originally going to, I turned in the direction of
avoiding running into Yohane as much as possible.
It was Stella’s own consideration.
“You wouldn’t want to come on a date and meet your middle brother.’
I followed her actions.
If Stella had a romantic interest in Yohane and tried to do something, I would
have stopped her.
In the first place, telling Yohane’s unrequited love was also implicitly
expressing the opinion of avoiding her sister.
If the younger brother does not ask for it, there is no need to reach out to the
younger brother in love.
Not to mention, the fact that Arien came this far also seems to have some
feelings for her younger sister. Yohane may or may not, but from a third
person’s point of view.
The younger brother’s romance was halfway successful.
‘cheer up. Yohane.’
I wholeheartedly supported my brother’s relationship.
“What are you doing there?”
“I’m just watching.”
With a rough answer, I erased my brother from my mind.
The main viewing of the island of mystery is more focused on the night of truth
rather than mystery.
night of truth
It literally refers to discussions and presentations of magicians discussing the
truth held at night.
The night is long but also short.
During that time, wizards discuss the truth and show off their magic, and the
wisest Remicron judges who has reached the truth the most, but the most
spectacular night is.
That doesn’t mean there is nothing to see during the day.
Even during the day, not at night, wizards give lectures and presentations.
Most of those magicians give lectures or presentations to find investors to
invest in their work or to gain fame or resume to raise their level, so the
level is lower than a night where they discuss the truth.
However, as it is the result of wizards who were immersed in the magic embedded
in the mysterious island, there were many magic towers that were of a higher
level than wizards of the same level.
The quality of the artifacts that came out was also quite good as the level was
high.
But Stella doesn’t pay attention to those things. I gestured to and fro.
“There is an armor that absorbs and reflects some of the magic created by the
prospect of the Red Mage Tower, so why not go see it?”
“I am not interested.”
“Then, how about the items for this presentation from the green mage tower over
there? It looks like they’re trying to show you a part of it in advance before
nightfall. I can’t see what it is from here.”
“It is the same. Not very interesting.”
Stella put on a bored expression. Most of the things that were all so-so from
her point of view.
Armor that absorbs and reflects magic?
Such things are common artifacts, so many that the imperial palace treasure
chests are overflowing with rot.
And the results of the other Mage Towers are obvious.
In broad daylight like this, there’s no way they’d come up with a technique that
could become the essence of the Mage Tower, so they’d all be there.
“Is that so.”
I lowered my arm. It seemed that Stella would not go to see it if I suggested it
here.
“And even if it’s not a woman, if it’s something that catches the eye of a
woman, wouldn’t bureaucrats in the empire show interest and take care of things
on their own?”
I also agreed with what followed.
The Ministry’s role was not limited to simply ‘hunting down warlocks’. The
department of the Ministry of Magic took care of all work related to magic,
befitting the name of the Ministry of Magic.
But now there is no such Ministry of Magic, but the Empire is not an Empire for
nothing.
As if replacing a missing cog, a new department was built over the empty seat of
the Ministry of Magic.
They will now take care of all the magic-related work that the Ministry of Magic
handled.
Therefore, there was no need for Stella to go see them here. Anyway, the
servants who contribute to the empire under her will take care of the work.
So the steps move forward without hesitation. When I couldn’t find anything more
to see on this side, my gait naturally sped up.
‘T don’t see many interesting things.’
Stella stopped in place. She looked up at the sky. It is still sunny.
she raised an eyebrow. After thinking it through, Stella decided.
“Cadian. Please guide me once.”
“A guide?”
“Didn’t you say you visited the mysterious island a few times? It doesn’t matter
where you are, so just guide me to a place where you can spend your free time.”
“All right.”
I lowered my head. I even thought hard about it.
Is there really a place that will attract Stella’s interest?
The Night of Truth is held in the evening, so let’s make an exception.
He didn’t seem to be particularly interested in the wizard’s lectures.
Then a strange thought ran through my mind.
“stellar. Are you interested in clothes?”
“clothes?”
It is basically commercially developed to some extent. And the clothes on the
mysterious island are more like artifact-type clothes made in the Mage Tower.
The clothes sold here are not clothes made of common materials that can be
easily obtained, but various clothes that are in harmony with magic.
“I don’t really need.. clothes.”
As a member of the royal family, she is always rich. If you ask an attendant for
clothes, she is the one who can see and wear dozens, hundreds, or thousands of
outfits.
“Do you need clothes?”
The sudden question reminded me of a closet in my house. Do you need clothes?
The wizard’s brain is brilliant. I could remember all the clothes I had in the
house and also what kind of clothes they were.
Most of them are achromatic clothes. And they were clothes that had been worn
for a long time.
It’s not obvious because I’m wearing the uniform that is the symbol of the SS,
but most of my everyday clothes have a stretched neck or have been worn for a
long time.
Thinking of the increased number of clothes I had packed in my bag right now, I
was positive.
“Required.”
“Is that so?”
added the words.
“But you don’t have to live here.”
“It happened. Are you interested in clothes?”
“Not much.”
“I thought so.”
Stella smiled. She doesn’t know what Cadian’s usual style is, but I can guess.
When she went to Cadian’s house the other day, she saw Cadian in casual clothes.
Even at a glance, Cadian’s clothes, which seemed to be uninterested in clothes,
were worn in achromatic colors, and the neckline was stretched out.
“What kind of clothes do you want?”
“I just wear what is comfortable.”
“What is comfortable?”
“Anything that is comfortable to move around when worn is fine.”
This is the answer that people who are not interested in clothes would say.
Stella snorted.
“Let’s go. to buy clothes.”
The Mystic Island is divided into districts, but the commercial district is not
located very far away.
The mysterious island wasn’t wide enough to ride in a carriage, so after walking
for a while, the commercial district was full of people.
n many . n
“It’s probably a commercial district, right?”
A place to buy and sell artifacts. The Mystic Island is controlled by the Magic
Tower so that you cannot enter without an invitation, but there are many
invitations issued.
Those in the commercial district went with wizards and occasionally saw ordinary
people and mercenaries.
The Mage Tower usually sells invitations. The mysterious island is where you can
enter if you just ask for the invitation.
The Mage Tower sent invitations directly to me and Stella, but few people
receive this privilege.
“Where do you plan to look back?”
From right in front to the other end, everything is a clothing store. I felt a
bit of annoyance as I looked at the clothing stores that would pass on 40 even
if I couldn’t do it.
But contrary to me, Stella’s eyes were shining.
She had seen any clothes she wanted, as long as the imperial palace requested
them, but this was the first time she had visited a clothing store in person
like this.
“Let’s go from there first.”
Stella took Cadian’s hand.
shopping.
And that too… It was shopping with a girl who was very interested, had good
stamina and an indefatigable spirit like a wizard.
I went shopping when the sun was clearly in the middle of the day, but the sun
was setting and the sunset light was shining on the road.
As a battle mage, he had trained his body well, so he wasn’t tired from
wandering around this much, but he was mentally tired.
This is already the 70th clothing store. I had no idea there were so many
clothing stores in the business district.
My hands are full of bought clothes. He toured all clothing stores and bought as
many as 15 sets of clothes.
I looked around 70 stores and only bought 15 clothes.
“How about this?”
Stella brought out the 167th outfit and pushed it in. Take a rough look with
your eyes to see if your upper body and clothes match.
Ee It seems to he fine.”
I answered roughly. Words didn’t have much power.
Even though all the clothes I bought were mine.
I just wish that this shopping would be over quickly.
That was the moment.
As if she didn’t like the 167th outfit, she went to the store next door with
Stella who put the dress back in place.
There, Stella and I met Johanne and Arien.
Johanne is surprised to see me.
“brother?!
“Little brother.’
And as we looked at the clothes in each other’s hands, my younger brother and I
felt a strange sense of kinship.
