“what’s the matter? Yoner?”
“Oh… nothing. sister. Oh yeah. We’re going out now…”
Yoner muttered his tongue out. Then, over the amethyst glasses, Joanen’s eyes twinkled.
“Are you going out?”
“Yes.”
“Where are you going?”
“To see my friends.”
“When are you coming back?”
“Writing… well…?”
“Who is this Wordanaj family friend?”
“Hey, Lee Han is busy… Why?”
“You seem to be interested in alchemy.”
“Oh, no. I am not that interested.”
“Are you the alchemist chief?”
“……”
Yoner stared at Lee Han and Ratford.
You said that again in that short time!
‘sorry.’
Ratford bowed his head.
I just wanted to show Yonaire’s sister that Lee Han is a great person…
“Yoner… did you think I would treat your friend like the other alchemists in the workshop? Isn’t that what it is?”
“Oh, no.”
“right? I can’t do that.”
Lee Han wanted to ask, ‘How do you treat the other alchemists in the workshop?’ but he couldn’t.
“If I was a student at the Magic School, I would study during the vacation… Is my workshop not a suitable place to learn alchemy?”
“Oh, no. My sister’s studio is the best in Grand Den…”
“thank you for saying it like that.”
“But Lee Han is really busy…”
As Yoner persisted, Joanen turned an arrow to Lee Han.
“Why don’t you visit the workshop once?”
“thank you.”
“When would you like to visit?”
‘Really VerdusYou’re right!’
Lee Han had no choice but to admit that he was able to set a specific schedule right away.
Joanen noticed Lee Han’s alertness and turned to the carrot.
“I don’t know what Yonner said, but that’s a bit of an exaggeration. There are times when I am busy with work, but at that time, Yoner came to the workshop and looked around.”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
Others would have been deceived by Joanen’s good-natured expression, but not Lee Han.
The original devil always smiles kindly.
“My workshop is still not a bad place to study alchemy while on vacation. High-quality materials can be used generously, and the workers receive generous wages. It’s also a good way to build a network as many of the city’s top alchemists come to see us.”
‘It’s all here. Lee Han. If you refuse a little more, your sister will…’
Yoner’s earnest wish was to no avail, and Lee Han responded immediately.
“Do alchemists get paid too?”
“Sure. Aha. Are you interested in salary? As much as he is a friend of his younger brother to Einroguard student…”
Joanen secretly spread his three fingers. Lee Han’s heart pounded at the fingers wrapped in his white gloves.
three fold.
“Lee Han…!”
Yoner whispered sadly, but Joanen smiled as if she knew what Lee Han wanted and stretched out one more finger.
“…I really wanted to learn alchemy during vacation.”
Joanen gracefully grabbed Lee Han’s hand and shook hands.
“Welcome. Come anytime. Oh yeah. Can I talk to my brother for a moment?”
As Lee Han and his friends left first, Joanen turned to Yoner.
Yonner said with a gloomy face.
“If I lose a friend, it’s my sister’s responsibility…”
“I’m really not going to let you down. promise. Wasn’t he a bit more unusual than that?”
“ah. yes. He’s a strange person.”
“I thought you would turn it down, but you accepted it because of your salary. Maybe it’s because he’s from the Wodanaj family, but he doesn’t like gold coins. Do you have any debts?”
“Nope. I just like gold coins.”

“I’m a little worried about going to see Gainan too.”
Lee Han, too, was in a position to visit any large aristocratic family, but the imperial family had a slightly different story.
Basically, there’s nothing good about being tied together.
The nobles of the empire were divided into three categories.
A loyalist who supports the best of the royal family.
The aristocratic faction, with more than a hundred members of the imperial family, ridiculed and opposed to how great it is.
And neutrals that do not belong to either category.
The Wodanaj family belonged to a representative neutral faction. In fact, the Wodanaj family left the neutral faction and could even be called a chipper or a loner.
However, when Lee Han officially visited the imperial residence, rumors of ＜Lee Han of the Wodanaj family, support of the royal family A?> were just right.
“it’s okay. If you go with a group like this, all your school friends will visit together.”
Yonner understood Lee Han’s concerns.
In this case, an appropriate justification was important.
“Actually, it was a matter of going with you guys, so I didn’t worry too much. Rather, I am concerned about the people who will be in Gainando’s mansion.”
After visiting the Dalcard family and the Maikin family, I could tell.
The differences between the houses of noble families were greater than expected.

Now, if something strange happened at the Guyando mansion, it wouldn’t be too surprising.
“How is the atmosphere in Kainan-don’s mansion?”
“Gainando’s mansion? It’s ordinary. There is no such thing as a test or anything like our family. The number of customers is also small.”
me from kainanThe guests visiting the house were more likely to come because of Gainando’s mother than to see Gainando, a member of the royal family.
First of all, the Kraha family, Gainando’s mother’s family, was an enormously wealthy family in the empire.
If you had that much wealth, you would also have abilities that you didn’t have. Of course, the guests couldn’t come, so they were anxious.
However, there were not that many guests at the Kainandone mansion.
“Because Guy Nando’s mother doesn’t like to greet her guests.”
“Why? A lot of guests are needed to promote Gainan’s reputation… Well. not.”
It is necessary to welcome guests frequently to spread rumors of the family and increase its reputation, but sometimes it was the other way around.
The more often they are greeted, the more bad rumors can spread.
Lee Han changed the topic.
“What kind of mother is Gainando?”
If it was another good Professor Verdus, the visit could have been delayed a bit.
“He is a kind and kind person. and…”
“and?”
“You are a very beautiful person.”
“That’s right.”
Lee Han was taken aback by the sudden remark.
“When we first meet, it may be difficult to look directly into the face.”
“why?”
“You’re so beautiful, there’s a halo coming out from behind. I couldn’t even look at it.”
“…isn’t that just a mixture of spirit or angel blood?”
“right. I heard that the light spirit’s blood was mixed with it.”
Lee Han wanted to ask, ‘I can’t see my face because of the light, how do I know if I am beautiful or not?
How important would that be?
“Oh yeah. Do you really give pocket money if you are friendly with a guy?”
“yes.”
“Obviously, am I the best friend? What do you all think?”
Ratford and Nelia looked at Lee Han as if it were ridiculous.

“Please wait thirty minutes.”
“ah. Did the guests arrive first?”
“That… I’m sorry. Please wait thirty minutes.”
“??”
Lee Han and his friends tilted their heads in front of the front door of the splendid Gai-Nan-Done mansion.
He could have waited for a while if the guests arrived first, but waiting outside the front door was not uncommon.
Unless there’s something in the mansion that shouldn’t be shown…
“what?”
Beeppapapapa-
pop! Puff puff puff puff!
Magical firecrackers lit the sky with the sound of a gigantic wind instrument chorus.
Passers-by threw their eyes in surprise, wondering if there was any festival.
“what…”
“What is this…”
“Welcome to the mansion!”
“You came to the mansion…”
“welcome…”
“welcome…”
“welcome…!”
Chorus sounds from within.
Lee Han suddenly wanted to return to the mansion.
“What fuss is this?”
“It looks like the prince is welcoming guests at the Kraha family mansion.”
“Oh my gosh. Do I need to make so much noise?”
“I think they are friends I haven’t seen in a long time.”
The faces of Lee Han and his friends turned red at the sound of people talking interestingly.
“…cloak, swallow me.”
“Come on, come in! me too!”
The four went inside using the magic they learned in Einroguard.
Guy Nando, who was on the giant marble staircase, waved his hand as soon as he saw the four.
“Here! here!”
“Quickly stop singing!”
“uh? why? Only one movement has been played yet.”
“Noisy, stop singing!”
“Stop it quickly!”
friends are angryWhen he gave out, Guy Nando became confused and beckoned.
Then the musicians who were waiting at the mansion site took their hands off their instruments.
“why? Was the song bad?”
“It’s not about the song. Let’s go inside quickly.”
Lee Han and his friends dragged Guy Nando into the mansion.
Gainando was dragged along with a grunt.
“You can go in after listening to all the performances.”
“I’ll hear from you later.”
“really?”
“…someday. Rather, Gainan. he’s been fine Is there anything wrong?”
Lee Han changed the topic. Gainando said after thinking deeply.
“I had something to do with it.”
“!”
Ian was surprised.
Could it be that Gainando suffered persecution from the handsome royals just as Asan suffered from the handsome brothers of the Dalkad family?
“Who made an argument?”
“no. Yesterday I put in a new wizard card and I lost.”
“……”
“……”
Yoner momentarily raised his hand to slap Guy Nando in the back of the head.
It would have been a ‘clap’ if Nelia hadn’t hastily grabbed her wrist.
Lee Han nodded his head as if he knew it and asked again.
“Are you doing anything other than the wizard card? Who didn’t come and argue or argue?”
“yes? No one came.”
“……”
He said that no one had come, which made it a bit sad.
Lee Han exchanged sad glances with his friends.
“It’s okay because we came this way.”
“So I prepared to play, but you guys stopped in the middle.”
Gainando grumbled again.
When Yoner raised his other hand, which was not held by him, Nilia hurriedly grabbed it as well.
“Less than that. Let’s go play together during vacation.”
“What are you planning to play with?”
“Walking around the store, buying some new cards, browsing some toys, buying magazines from school…”
Lee Han shook his head sharply.
Do you live such an extreme consumption-oriented life?
It was a good life to become a beggar.
“Gainan too. That’s good, but there’s something more fun.”
“What? really?”
“Follow me and you will know. Let’s go together later.”
There was nothing more enjoyable than silver coins earned through sweat. Lee Han decided to share the joy with Guy Nando.
Yoner whispered.
“I don’t think Gainan would like to do that because of his personality.”
“it’s okay. You just have to tell me in a situation where you can’t escape.”
“……”
“Oh. I have to pay back the money I borrowed.”
Gainando called his servant. Lee Han was surprised at the unexpected appearance.
“I didn’t know you would remember first.”
“She said if she didn’t pay her money, she was trash.”
“That’s right.”
Gainando’s room was large enough to fit several wagons. Each of them was moderately scattered, grabbing something that looked interesting and playing.
While reading a novel serialized in a magazine with interest (Toberiz, a dog-beast detective, was looking for the culprit by foresight magic), Lee Han noticed that it was noisy outside.
“What do you have plans for today?”
“uh? uh, ah. right. I was told that other royal families were visiting.”
“……”
“…if that’s not a big deal, what’s the point?”
