"Welcome. ”

As soon as Alice entered the door, before she could look around, she heard the voice of a younger-sounding man not far away. She opened her mouth slightly in astonishment, and after reacting, she hurriedly covered it with her hand.

Isn't this a magic workshop used by magicians to practice secretly, to study, and to protect themselves?

There are also quite a few shops in Gensokyo, and Alice naturally knows that although this phrase has other uses, the most common place is the 'welcome' in front of the store.

Alice's eyes wandered, and she took a quick look at the surroundings of the room. There was a mess of piles of paper, cardboard boxes, and other things she didn't quite name. If you are someone else who lives in the modern world, you will immediately realize that such a place is not just a store, but an office that runs some kind of business. But Alice, after seeing the messy, even feeling a little dirty and dilapidated, was even more convinced that this was a store.

No way, who made Gensokyo, the 'department store' that Alice frequents most often, open on the edge of the Enchanted Forest, look like it's so messy and dirty that people have nowhere to stand in many cases?

It's not that the owner of the store is too lazy and never tidyes up the hygiene of the store. In fact, among the various monsters who go to the store to buy things, there are many fools who lack common sense and are rude. Not long after the owner of that shop had worked hard to clean and tidy up, it was turned over by customers like the ruins of Alibaba's 40 thieves.

Alice, who also likes to be clean and tidy up, sometimes looks at the appearance of the store and thinks that the boss is quite pitiful. But let her pity the family and help them clean up...... Don't even think about it. A half-demon man, why would Alice, who has no relatives and no reason, do such a thing for someone else's favor? Like when she was trapped in the enchantment with Levi before, there was no way, and second, it was also her own home. Alice didn't want to take care of the man in the family at that time, but she didn't want her home to be dirty and messy, and she didn't want the stinky man to mess with her own things, so she took care of almost all the housework on herself.

"Yo, Kurokiri, are you the only one here?"

Levi greeted the young man in the room who was packing his things, and he sounded familiar with the man. But Alice felt that the man was not the owner of the place. Although there is something special about the man with glasses. But there is no doubt that the man does not have in his body the magic that whether it is a magician, a magician, a magician, etc., it must have.

The man whom Levi called Kuroki was tall and slender and dressed in a very ordinary way, giving Alice the impression that ...... A bit like the kind of people in this world call 'scholars'?

Since this is a magic workshop, its owner should be a magician. Especially buying such a large building as her own magic studio, even with Alice's shallow understanding of the world, she feels that this is not something that an ordinary rookie magician can do. Before entering, Alice also guessed boredly what the magician was like. Obviously, whether she guessed right or not, it would definitely not be the man she saw now.

"Huh, it's Mr. Levy...... Ah, by the way, I heard Miss Orange say that there will be regular customers coming to the door today, and it turns out that Mr. Lévy is referring to him!"

The young man in glasses seemed to be glad to meet Levi, but given that Levi had been frequenting the shop since he was a college student, to help with their business. Otherwise, Kuroki would not have encountered so many 'interesting' things at that age. Of course, that's just what he thinks. In fact, the owner of this shop, the magic workshop located here, and the owner of this building, once joked to Levy that this young man named Kurokiri Kanya was born with the kind of 'trouble-grabbing' physique.

The so-called 'trouble-grabbing' physique is popularly explained as a trait similar to that of the protagonist in comics, novels, etc. The world's most rare events and once-in-a-century coincidences will appear around the protagonist, thus triggering one bizarre story after another, which continues to attract the interest of readers.

Lévy knew that this kind of unscientific and superstitious thing sounded like it actually existed in reality. Just as he talked to Alice about the city's 'luck' before, people also have their own luck and their own 'destiny'. And these seemingly metaphysical things have very scientific and rational explanations from some experts. Something like a 'magnetic field', or a 'force field' or a 'quantum field'. People like Levi can't remember that much, of course, but even if she asks Evan, she can actually explain it to the point where it makes sense.

And beings like Levi, whose lives are far longer than human beings, have witnessed many people who have frequently encountered adventures that cannot be explained by purely probabilistic theories. It is precisely because of the existence of these people who are like the 'protagonists' that the world has become the strange status quo of the current chaos and chaos but delicate balance.

And the young man in front of him is the kind of person who was born like a 'protagonist', who has been involved in countless bizarre situations in a short period of time and has effectively changed the fate of many extraordinary people.

"Because I want to ask Orange for help, I discussed it with her some time ago, and I happened to be free today, so I came over to get something and talked by the way. ”

Alice could tell that the orange in the mouth of Lévi and the young man with glasses was probably the owner of the building, that is, the magician who bought the building in order to build the magic workshop.

"Yes, Miss Orange said before she went out to pick up an item that the guest had requested, and I don't think it would take long for her, so Mr. Lévy would have followed him first...... Wait a minute, Miss?"

The young man with glasses, Kurokiri, also seemed to have just seen Alice beside Levi at this moment, and when he saw her appearance, he felt that his age was that of a middle school student, and he hesitated for a moment what to call her. If Alice hadn't been as mature as her face and temperament had been far beyond her age, but as lively and cute as Mengmeng in front of outsiders, Kuroki might have called her 'little sister' or something.
