47 – Find the Healing Factor (?) (2)
Almost as soon as the solicitation event was over, the owner suddenly left, saying he had something to do for a while.
Aisha-sama, who was in a very good mood while she was away for a while with a woman called a saint, sent her master away very lightly, unlike usual.
‘Just hold me as usual.’
It was a pity. At least while I’m with Aisha-sama, I can also spend time with my master.
During the last few days when Master started attending the academy, the amount of time he spent with Master drastically decreased.
But in the past, I spent a lot of time teaching martial arts, cooking and cleaning together. I never thought that if you weren’t a student, you wouldn’t even be able to enter the classroom.
If I had known it would be like this, I would have opposed going to the academy.
‘I purposely took it out and wore it…’
I lowered my gaze and slightly lifted the skirt of the maid’s uniform.
The clothes my colleagues forcibly gave me as equipment for a decisive battle.
“Listen! A maid is a man’s dream! So, I will make her my maid!”
“Don’t be a jerk, kill me quickly!”
I remember what my master said on the battlefield three years ago, rejecting Aisha-sama’s words and twisting my fate.
I think it’s okay even if you’re not a maid.
As a result of observing it quietly, the owner’s fetish was quite wide.
Still, I mustered up the courage to change things up a little while I was on my way to the academy, hoping to catch the master’s attention one more time.
“It suits you well. They’ll tell you to try it on right away.”
Those words that I repeat several times a day.
How happy I was that my master complimented me. I wanted to hear that again, so I changed my clothes a little bit every day.
Change the shape of the lace or apron, or change the color tone a little.
He doesn’t say anything every time, but he gives me a small nod after looking at the exact part I changed.
Then, as if possessed by an indescribable emotion, I try to make a new change.
Is this what love is?
‘Well…’
I even thought so at first. But I’ve never done it, so I can’t confirm.
I read Aisha-sama’s novel several times because I was curious, but I didn’t understand it, so I quickly covered it again.
Are you willing to sacrifice your life for your lover? I’m the master’s pet, so that’s a natural feeling.
Or is it that you only think of your lover all day long? The only ones close to me are Aisha-sama, Master-sama, and the old dragon. It’s a bit vague to make a conclusion.
Right now, I just want to get closer to the owner. I want to draw more attention. I feel like I want to be with you more.
‘Um…’
After all, it might be love. I should read Aisha-sama’s novel again.
As I was diligently cleaning the venue, Aisha-sama suddenly approached me with a smile.
“Hey~ Laminasis~”
As expected, I look especially good today. I’m not the kind of person who calls me so warmly.
It must have something to do with the master. What the hell happened
“I have a request for you~”
Aisha-sama ask me?

Now about 30 minutes until the quest is over.
‘Where the hell are you stuck!’

My own little healing factor, hide-and-seek with the 2nd Prince was currently in progress.
“The prince? You’re already in, but didn’t you go there?”
I asked the principal I met while passing by, and he said he had already entered. Even with only one attendant.
According to what I’ve heard, he was ordered never to follow him, so even the principal couldn’t figure out where he was.
No, do you really leave the country’s prince alone? It’s dereliction of duty!
I’m sorry, but I also asked the principal to find the prince. He is looking for the academy in the sky, but he doesn’t come out even if he really dies.
You must have played hide and seek in the old days? But as soon as the word healing is about to disappear from my heart, it jumps out quickly!
“So Count!”
I heard the principal calling me from down there, and I quickly descended to the ground.
“Did you find it?”
“No… I couldn’t find it.”
Holy crap. We have about 20 minutes left. If you fail by a short distance, you will be twice as angry.
“Something is strange. Even if you searched the entire academy with search magic, there’s no way you won’t see it.”
That’s what I was thinking too.
I’ve been shooting search magic in the air since a while ago, but there was no reaction, so I felt strange. I wondered if I was outside the academy.
However, there is clearly a phrase ‘somewhere in the academy’ in the quest, so it is not somewhere else.
Other things are unkind, but this part is certain.
“Is there any way to evade the search magic?”
“Yes? Hwa, the reason the prince would do that…”
“The reason is not important. Do you have? Are there any?”
At my prompting, the principal drool for a while, pondered, and carefully opened his mouth.
“Anti-mana artifacts are possible, but they won’t make it impossible for Count Sow or I to find them even if we do our best. Then…”
So what?
“Fire, Hwangseong… If you use the legendary level treasure…”
At that moment, a legendary item that can be obtained from the imperial castle passed my head.
‘You bastard!’
The 2nd Prince fell from the Healing Factor into a bastard at once.
What kind of Harry Potter is that!? Why are you coming to the academy with an invisibility cloak?
—–
‘Whoops… I’m looking hard.’
While having a conversation with the principal, he burst into laughter as he saw Count So fly back into the sky. I’m really having a good time after a long time.
It feels good to get away from the imperial castle for a while, but aren’t they enjoying this fun game too?
‘When will I be able to find this body?’
While I was looking forward to it, I started to worry about the remaining amount of magic stones I brought to use the treasure of the imperial castle.
The legendary treasure, the ‘Invisible Cape’, is more commonly referred to as the ‘invisibility cloak’.
It hides all of the wearer’s mana as well as sound and presence.
Instead, mana consumption was huge, and most of the mana stones that had been collected in triple digits were already losing their luster.
‘This alone is enough for three months’ worth of finances.’
Because you have to make a lot of magic stones in a short time, and you’ll have to stab a thick reward into the mage tower that must have made you cry.
Still, this time, I’ve got quite a lot of money as a condition for admitting the nobles of the kingdom and the kingdom to the academy, so I don’t have to worry about bankruptcy yet.
‘By the way, that’s a really great amount of mana. Aren’t you tired?’
Even this country was surprised when Count So soared into the sky casually.
Emergency magic is not difficult. However, if you are a wizard, you will hesitate once in a while. Because it consumes an enormous amount of mana as much as the floating time.
Even the court mage of the imperial family can only fly without resting for about an hour. It’s easy to fall after flying around ignorantly without magic stones to replenish mana.
I know this well because I have experienced it myself.
But Count So has been doing that for over an hour already, and isn’t he using additional magic to find me?
Indeed, he is the son of Marquis Peirosis, a loyalist of the Empire. Could it be that he inherited the blood of a great mage? Or is it because he is a disciple of the Archwitch?
Putting aside the slightly spreading expectations for a while, I remembered the original purpose of coming here.
‘Then where… When are these guys going to come out?’
I didn’t bring a legendary treasure passed down to the imperial family just because I was getting old and wanted to play hide-and-seek with my subordinates.
‘The Swamp of the Five Elements.’
Those who have spread all over the continent for a very long time and engage in dissident activities, focusing on the empire and the holy kingdom, and fanatics who abandon the grace of the only god Raen and believe in their own god called ‘Erekk’.
It was because I received a report that the arrogant swamp of the Five Elements was moving towards the academy.
I was expecting it. From time immemorial, the goals they were aiming for were set.
Didn’t three of them gather in one place called the academy? It was a very natural procedure for them to move.
‘It would be the icing on the cake if we went to the next emperor.’
For them, this is a golden opportunity to achieve their goals and shake the empire at the same time.
So I moved myself. To add the finest to the finest bait.
However, the Swamp of the Five Elements is not an opponent to be taken lightly. Isn’t it a group that is still fully active while harassing the Empire and the Holy Kingdom?
It was essential to have someone capable of escorting me and at the same time defeating them using ‘strange tricks’.
‘Fortunately, there was the right person.’
A loyal subject who has been protecting the empire for a long time, and a person who currently holds the position of a court mage.
And someone who has a great interest in what’s happening at the academy these days.
Hearing that the Swamp of the Five Elements was targeting the academy, he blinked his eyes terribly and silently expressed his anger.
That’s right.
I heard that the mob was preparing a bloody dinner at the place where my son, who had been separated for the first time in six years, had returned. There’s no way a man who is famous for his love for his family could not be alone.
‘Thank you, Marquis Peirosis.’
Isn’t this the first opportunity in six years? It’s time to wash your appetite.
