Upon Rofas-sanâs command, wind began blowing inside the storage.
ăItâs a wind magic stone. Cancel.ă
The wind stopped at his command.
A-amazing!
If there are wind magic stones, then a fridge made of wind and waterâŠ
ăThis is a small magic stone, so itâll last about half a day. Iâll leave some extras behind.ă
Eh? It only works for half a day? Then itâll be impossible to have a fridge that activates it endlessly thenâŠ?
Ahh, thatâs too bad. I guess I have to learn how to use magic so I can make iceâŠ! It looks like the magic stone alone isnât enough to get on the path to a fridge!
It was now the next day.
I woke up early because I knew that Bryce-kun was going to leave today, butâŠ
Mm, rather than feeling sentimental, I was more curious about the explosions coming from outside.
I went to wash the rice in a pot and then filled it with water. Thirty minutes from now.
I headed outside to see what was happening.
A giant fireball was flying towards Rofas-san.
ăU-uwah, itâs like Dragon Balt !ă(*1)
People who know about the series would probably tell me that Iâm wrong, but thatâs the only thing I can relate the giant fireball to.
What was it, the southern islands, um, the name of the great king, umm, his name was�
Kame, kame, umâŠÂ (*2)
ăKame, what was itâŠă
ăHm? Kame? Whatâs that? Is it yummy?ă
Eh?
I just noticed that Kurtz-kun was standing beside me.
ăGood morning, Kurtz-kun.ă
ăGood morning, Yuuri-neechan. So, whatâs kame?ă
Um, how should I put itâŠ
ăThereâs a childrenâs story from my hometown, and it has the name of the magic that Bryce-kun is using, um, itâs also the name of a great king who lived on the southern islands. Itâs called Kame-something, but I canât seem to remember itâŠă(*3)
ăEhh, it has the name of a great king in it? Thatâs so cool!ă
Uu.
I couldnât tell him.
The great king from the southern islands was more of a cheery existence than a cool one⊠And that the name was used for the attack in order to generate laughter, due to gag manga getting popular during that time periodâŠ
Kurtz-kunâs eyes were glittering.
ăThatâs so cool, Bryce-niichan. You can use magic that has a great kingâs name in it. Youâre amazing.ă
Ahhh, Iâm sorry!
ăSo, Yuuri-neechan, do you remember the name of the great king yet?ă
âŠMaybe it would be best if I donât remember it. If the words kame and ha became popular in this world, I donât think my heart could take it.
ăIâm sorry, I donât remember what it isâŠă
ăOh, okayâŠă
Kurtz-kun hung his head in disappointment.
Uohh, Iâm sorry!!
ăIâll tell you if I remember what it is!ă
Uugh.
As we were talking, Rofas-san dodged another fireball and jumped up about four meters off the ground.
Amazing!
He came down at Bryce-kun with his fist.
ăT-thatâs, An Pun- ă(*4)
Oops, I shouldnât go there.
I covered my mouth.
ăWhat? An Pun??ă
Itâs the name of the special attack of a certain anime character aimed towards young children. I watched it many times with the two cute children.
I wonder if theyâre doing alright. Theyâre probably going to stop watching that anime soon, and move onto hero shows instead. If they graduate from that too, then⊠I wonder what theyâre watching now. I shook my head slightly.
Iâm sure theyâre happy. I was shocked that they were basically taken away from me⊠But their real mommy is a kind-hearted person, and sheâs working really hard.
She is probably a much more wonderful person than I am, just as my husband saidâŠ
I shook off those feelings, and looked forward.
Rofas-san didnât exactly resemble the anime character from the childrenâs anime, seeing as he was incredibly muscular.
Yeah, even if he did the same pose, it wouldnât suit him at all.
ăHey, whatâs that? That thing you just said?ă
Kurtz-kun looked at me with his glittering eyes again.
