The Magician Wants Normality Vol 2 Chapter 4

I Seemed to Have Obtained a Best Friend

 

Well, I arrived at Zeburesuto!

I have to be mindful that ‘I’m a noble lady under the protection of Irufena’ and if it’s found out that it’s a false claim, it will be heavily punished.

This is slightly shady, Rudolf.

For the time being, I had been occupying one of the rooms in Seraglio while waiting for the introduction of the other accomplices.

The palace?

Because the nobles can come investigate me, it’s impossible!

Seraglio, except for a part of it, let in only women, isn’t this place safer?

 

 

“I’m so sorry, I should’ve come sooner.”

“No, no, it’s natural since I’m confined in here.”

“I’m so glad you can understand. Oh, basically my aides doesn’t contact with anyone but the Prime Minister.”

“Since I’m a noble who had the protection of Irufena, isn’t it bad for me and your aides to get along well?”

“It’s better to erase the component of doubt since we are on good terms, and I probably prefer to be seen as one.”

 

Since our first meeting till now, we had spoken on various subjects to an extent where we are close enough to casually talk now.

It was also good to treat him with home cooking, though it might probably look unusual to others.

………Ladies, you should never take the cooking path lightly.

Because Rudolf, who came from royalty eats my cooking without caution, it brought an outcome of trust in your partner.

That’s why we are both determined to erase them all together on the introduction stage.

Defeat? Failure? That is not good, right?

We will definitely have the last laugh, but from what?

Rudolf, me, and several guards arrived together in the sunny room.

The other accomplices, including the prime minister would later come after occupying the nobles.

It’s seriously unfortunate.

Well, since I don’t want the other accomplices to see, let me hand a couple of things to Rudolf before it’s too late.

I search in the baggage and placed two items on the table.

 

“Oh, what is it?”

 

I noticed that not only Rudolf was interested, but so was the guards.

 

“This small one right here is for communication and the bracelet is a present from me to you as friends.”

“For communication?”

 

Rudolf took the small one in his hand, his eye subtly opening wide.

The guards looked at each other confused.…huh, isn’t magic items more widely used here than Irufena?

 

“The voice is delivered through the square in the power stone. In a sense, we can talk to each other.”

“Hee…..how did you made it so small?”

“I just kept on improving it, and for it to work, simply wear it and it’ll correspond by delivering your voice to the other person.”

 

It’s a pendant with a simple appearance.

But the passionate group of black knights declared that it was carrying the soul of craftsmanship.

Without even having to speak—telepathy—it is possible through communication.

Even from Rudolf’s reaction, I guess, it seems to be originally a bigger thing than it seem to be.

Otherwise, the only thing it does is let us talk through it.

 

“This allows us to call each other?”

“Yes, it’s like that. Basically this is for us to cooperate and communicate when I’m far away.”

“Got it, I will try not to catch any attention. And then, what about that?”

 

Rudolf pointed to the shiny silver bracelet.

Fu….Listen good!

 

“It’s the Valhalla Bracelet. I made it without this world’s common sense.”

“Hah?”

“It’s a high-grade magic item that is made from a mage of a different world!”

 

With a broad grin, I laughed while looking very satisfied.

Well, with the approval of Maou-sama of course.

I will even have Rudolf take it to his grave and later on, it may become a legendary item.

 

“So when you get drugged or poisoned, just drop your blood to the power stone and it will purify you back to your original state.”

“Then this bracelet uses purification?”

“In addition to both physical and magical barrier, and also healing magic……..”

“Oh? Hold on a second, isn’t that strange?!  Why does it have more than one effect?”

 

Ah, right, this reaction is to be expected.

Mmm…as a result, the world of games was really without limitation in terms of imagination.

 

“Because I made it”

“So then, what is it?”

“It’s ‘just a thing’ I had put together! And because you cannot leave the bracelet in this world, take it to your grave”

“Surely…. It’s a taboo curse.”

“That not it! Hey, who do you take me for……this is knowledge from a different world and a profit of my effort.”

 

Because this is a difference in recognition, I cannot explain it.

You have no choice but to accept it as ‘just a thing’.

Rudolf, be an obedient child now, please.

Onee-san is getting anxious because of you.

 

“And be careful to not exhaust yourself when healing and purifying since it drain so much of your energy aside from universal barriers. And just so you know, purifying takes time.”

“….? Is it somewhat different from normal magic?”

“Because I don’t use it since I incorporated the magic that only I can do.”

“Ah~ …..so the gap of the recognition between this world and my world is this thing here?”

“Yup. Oh, it’s also effective against love potion.”

“I understand this item is high-grade, but I don’t think I can pay if it’s too high, alright?”

“Oh, it’s free, okay? After all, I said it’s a gift and it’s because I worry about you.”

 

*Gashi* Rudolf squeezed my hand with a big smile.

 

“I want to call you my best friend! You’re such a great person!”

“…..I remembered what kind of situation you had been living in, don’t you think so?”

“My dear friend!”

 

You are like a juvenile boss who sang some murderous song.

No, were you simply delighted because I was being nice?

Actually, considering that this is ‘something that originally didn’t exist’, the price wasn’t set.

Moreover, it’s exclusive to the owner, but this is stuff that’s close to a short performance.

 

“I see, you were also an engineer. Thanks!”

 

The guard watched as Rudolf authenticated it cheerfully and wore it with warmth.

Hey guards, as for you guys.

Is my sincerity so easy to believe? I do not mean to deceive you.

Amazement traveled across the guards and one of guards solely came through with a tired smile began to speak.

 

“Many thanks, Lady Mage. Really, and we are very sorry for his Majesty.”

“Everybody is strangely tired, too… In the area that is not common for the guards.”

 

Uh-huh, all the guards nodded in agreement.

It wasn’t my imagination when there seemed to be power in their fists.

 

“We had an exhaustively hard time trying to bring this up and talk about it. Though this time we are truly glad.”

“Yeah, for the Seraglio destruction.”

“Do not say it so quickly. But please gradually make him a scapegoat!”

“We’ll help you with all our efforts!”

“Retaliation on that scum!”

“Please, by all means!”

 

…………

……..What should I do?

All the guards, their eyes are quite serious.

Furthermore, they loudly declared, ‘Please by all mean, show him hell!’, without so much as covering it.

Are they not loyal to their king?!

Oh, should I prepare a place for activities for them? Would everyone do it?

I say, their feeling of unity is incomplete! Do you all dislike it so?

Was it the very limit of mentally……..hmm, If it’s not meeting, I can’t think of such plan.

 

“I’ll do my best”

“We all are looking forward to it!”

 

*Fua* All of you guards should feel relieved. I had exactly achieved playing the role as a minion for Maou-sama!

But well…..I would like to forget it.

I can’t return home until I completed the mission?! There will be no ED to swallow!

Maou-sama stated that if I don’t make use of this situation, then the crisis of life and death will be more terrible.

Uu, even though I said it like an aggressive leader, I’m as well, a regular citizen. Please do appreciate a little, will you?

I’m still a maiden…..

 

“That Erushuon, His Imperial Highness among other things, praised his mages highly.”

“I heard the bounty were seriously frightening to the point of bursting into tears when hearing about the savage mage!”

“Mizuki, is savage a word of compliment?”

 

……

That guy?

He is the cause, the one who spread the rumor about the savage mage, Maaoouu-samaaaa!

As it is only a rumor, I cannot deny it!

Rudolf doesn’t know the story well either so I can not respond to it!
