31. Master

The way to live in this cold place is naturally not to rely on the "blood" in Letty's heart, and it is true that excessive display of strength can survive in a sense, but it is more likely to be targeted by one's own enemies, or...... Forcibly taken to a small room for tea by a group of guys called "police".

Enough money, with the necessary common sense, is the way to survive here. There is no such thing as a "robber" who will suddenly appear here, even if someone really grabs the bag with a knife and snatches it, he will soon be under the net, and there is no need for too much "power" here, when a "heretic" suddenly appears in a group of "ordinary people", that guy will soon become the focus of attention, the headlines of tomorrow's newspapers.

It's like...... It's the same now.

I couldn't look at Letty's lack of nervousness, but all Irina sitting across from her could do was bury her head in the newspaper once more. Times are constantly evolving, but it seems that there are still some things from the "past" that have not been abandoned, and now I am holding one of them.

It may be different from what it used to be, but it is more appropriate to be a source of information than in those days when newspapers were used as beds.

"About the Magician's press conference a few days ago......"

Ah, that's it, I don't know what the press conference means, but ...... As long as there are three words that are all too familiar, there is absolutely no problem in following the address.

"Letty, we found it. ”

"Huh?"

“...... Forget it, it's fine. ”

Letty, who is really the eldest lady, looks like she won't be able to change the style of the corresponding "eldest lady" for a while. When possible, she always chooses the most comfortable enjoyment. Although the food appearance is still so impeccable. But......

"Also. Our money is not spent on this. ”

Glancing helplessly at the table, it was clear that Letty, who was still a newcomer, first learned to buy breakfast beautifully.

"But...... Aren't we very rich?"

"Not at all!"

Even if you do have a little money, it is based on the fact that you can successfully find a quick way to get to your destination, no matter how hard it is, at least you have to ensure that the cost of the journey is complete. Even a simple understanding can show that prices have risen a lot over the years, and it is no longer possible to let Letty play like this. Simply throwing them away may be an option, but ......

This is the companion. Although it requires constant worry, it will not be abandoned. At that time, did the two sisters also see themselves like this?

"In short, it's time to limit your spending from tomorrow. And then...... Snacks too, that kind of thing just looks brighter. I've already calculated the route, and the fare to get there can be said to be very tight, so ...... You can't spend any more. ”

While reprimanding softly, Irina quietly clutched the money bag in her hand, and after hesitating for a moment, she finally gave Leiti a part.

"This is today's portion, please keep buying the meal. Be careful not to be too ostentatious and ...... You can't spend it indiscriminately. ”

"Hmm......"

"We're magicians now, not the eldest lady. "A dejected face in the face of Letty. All Irina did was add another sentence that made her sigh.

After all, everyone's identity was decided as early as when I received the certificate of completion from Ms. Rosie. An undisputed magician, who no one can deny, slipped out from under the noses of the attacking enemy at the behest of his superiors to join the witches who were confronting the "era" head-on. Yes, that's how it is, no matter how dangerous it is, you have to face the difficulties, but ......

"Is it me today?"

Reluctantly borrowed money, Letty tilted her head as if she remembered something, "Irina, are you with me?"

However, I still can't look at it directly, the restlessness that pours out of my heart. Maybe the dream before is the best proof of it, I ......

"Well, I'm still a little ...... It's uncomfortable, so it's bothering you. ”

Whispering, and then bowing her head and apologizing silently for the clumsy lie that Letty couldn't detect, was the only thing Irina could do now. Even if you want to force yourself to eat in order to "survive", the food you put in your mouth is completely tasteless like a wax block, and it is clear that it is ...... It was a breakfast that made Letty happy.

He hurriedly wiped his mouth and turned to leave, only to feel better the moment Letty closed the door. It must have been affected by the dream that I had when I had a fever that I would never forget, and the scenes of escaping to the "fairy tale" began to emerge clearly, whether it was being targeted by strangers, or escaping the pursuit of some "partners", or the figure of the master I glimpsed at the end, these are like soldering irons, and its imprints are engraved on my heart.

Sure enough, even though a long, long time has passed, and I still don't have the courage to wander around the streets when I come back here. Ran out of the master himself, but ...... But never "ran out". This is also why I don't want to hurry as soon as possible, but with the relationship that Letty has been waiting for, let alone going out, now I don't even have the courage to look at the window, as if as soon as I open it, I will see the figure of the master in that not wide landscape. Obviously, these feelings have long been forgotten when I went to the "fairy tale", but ......

Existence exists after all, just like what you have done. "killed" the two sisters with a means that bordered on "betrayal", and took Sister Zero's book and kept it for himself. I've never been a big lady, maybe ...... It's not even a magician. If it weren't for Ms. Rosie's acceptance of herself, if it weren't for Ms. Rosie's patient teaching of herself, then even if she really had the "absolute" talent as she said, it would be useless.

No, can't think about it so much anymore, at least...... At the very least, take Letty with you to find the place of the Magic Society. It's the first time she has come into contact with this world, and she is too weak, and if she is not careful, she will fall into the unique "trap" here. She was her own companion, her long-lost companion, the second companion, so ...... You must not watch her approach little by little and be indifferent.

......

"Whew...... Let's see if there are any through trains. ”

Sighing softly, the chilly wind blowing outside the window forced him to focus on the newspaper again. Even if fear is unavoidable, at least ...... Also choose a safe method. O master...... O greatest master, he is only one of your many slaves, so ......

It's been a few years, and so should you...... I forgot that I existed. (To be continued.) )
