v5c145 - Alex seeks an Energy drink after a change of mindset
“Ms. Sophie is amazing. You’ve been up almost all night.”
“No, I’ve been sleeping myself. But I’m a little different. I have an automatic mode of action.”
“What’s that?”
“Yes. It takes a lot of magic power, but in return, my body will do whatever I set it to do while I’m asleep.”
“What’s that, isn’t that scary?”
“I’m fine. It can’t do anything difficult, and what I was doing this time was just an act of receiving magic from the Master. However, since the Master will be supplying me with a rich supply of magic power, it should be possible for me to keep going for a week if I want to.”
…… Wait a minute.
I woke up in the morning to the movements of Fiine and Sophie, and heard a terrible conversation.
Doing it for a week …… That’s going to kill me!
I mean, they were already doing it all night long, right?
Are Sophie and Fiine’s bodies going to be okay?
“I see. I’m jealous that you keep doing it. I get sleepy after a while, and if Sir Alex gets serious, I’ll pass out from the sheer intensity of it all.”
"
"
“Faint …… you say? When Master gets serious, does it go so far as to make you pass out?”
“Yes. When Sir Alex thrusts himself, he activates his charge skill and it’s amazing! And when he takes Ms. Rei’s energy drink, it’s even more amazing, so you’ll pass out in no time!”
I see. The point is that I should do them myself and take them down early.
This was a blind spot.
But I think it’s not a good idea to keep letting it out endlessly all night long, so I’ll ask if she can make an energy drink with a slightly reduced duration.
When I first woke up, I found that Fiine was overflowing with that, so we went to take a bath first.
But it was just leftover hot water …… or rather water.
“I’m sorry. I heard you two talking a little, and …… I heard that Sophie had been doing it all night, but is your body, or rather your stomach, okay?”
Besides me and my clone producing the same amount at the same time, Sophie’s body is smaller than Fiine’s.
But when I asked why Fiine is having more trouble with my stuff…
“Apparently, Master’s stuff that enters my body and doesn’t become a child is taken into me and converted into magical power.”
“…… I, I see.”
It is a wonder of the human body, or a wonder of magic, how that thing can be converted into magical power.
Once all three of us were dressed, we woke up everyone and we had breakfast, and then we headed back to the south house, but on the way there, I went to Rai and told her what I thought that morning.
“Rei, I need a favor. I want you to make a certain potion for me.”
“Uh, what do you want to request from me, Alex-han? It doesn’t look like you need any restorative medicine …… Oh, like the sleeping potion that put Tsubaki-han to sleep the other day?”
“No. I’m looking for some of those energy drinks you gave me a couple of times.”
“W-What did you say! Alex-han wants an energy drink!? W-When is it!? When is the festival!?”
No, what festival are you talking about?
“Alex. You didn’t do it with me yesterday, you know.”
“Mr. Alex. Let’s do it as we get to the south house, okay?”
“Well, well. That kind of festival, huh …… This is something to look forward to.”
Ellie and Lydia pressed their chests against me, and Mio’s eyes lit up.
A little later, Nina and Meilin gently held my hand, and Nora and Yudit asked, “What kind of festival are you talking about?” and dived in with a confused look on their faces.
“I-I’m sorry I’m late …… but this festival, I won! Miss Fiine. How long will it take you to make the Rei’s medicine?”
“Hmmm, I think I can make it as early as the evening.”
“Ooohhh! So, if we hold the festival in the evening, I will be the only one who wins tonight!”
I don’t know what they are talking about, but everyone is in an uproar about the festival.
In the midst of all this, Sakura approached me and bowed deeply.
“Master Alex. For today’s festival …… Please allow my foolish sister, Tsubaki, to participate in today’s festival ……?”
“No, I have no reason to refuse since she’s your sister, but what kind of festival is it today? Is it some country’s national day or some god’s birthday?”
“Uh …… is it okay if I tell it here?”
Sakura looks at Nora and Yudit with a troubled look in her eyes.
I don’t know the details, but I guessed what Sakura was trying to say, so I decided to ask her again later.
I mean, I haven’t been able to talk to Rei about the details yet, but will it be okay?
Give me a break from regular energy drinks, will you?
