Chapter 104

There is no librarian in the archive, even if someone comes, it’s only to bring the new collection . Therefore the books in the archive aren’t sorted, they’re just lined up on the bookshelves . Also, the books that can’t be stored in the bookshelves left in the box, there are even some that awfully piled up .




「He said the archive needs to be organized A BIT, right…」
「That’s what he said…」
The two who go further to the back are shocked by the mess that’s more than they thought .

After seeing the awful mess, Souta thought about rearranging them by using the dimensional storage . However since it’s impossible to separate them by genre, he needs to confirm them all one by one . Considering the time and effort to store the books from the bookshelves and then rearrange them back, this method is put on hold .
「Dina, for the time being, let’s clear out this area a bit and then put the books we finished confirming here . 」
「Ahh that’s right . We won’t know which is which if we don’t divide them . 」
As Souta lifts the books to make space, Dina receives them and then move them to another place . After the books are cleared out, Souta put a big empty box there .

「This is good enough I think? Dina, put the books you finished confirming in this box . If it’s something you would like to read or think we would need, even if they’re not the books by Grevin, give it to me, I will store them in the dimensional storage . 」
「I understand . But is it alright if we take books that are not written by Elder-san?」
Asked Dina with a slightly worried face .
「It’s fine, the condition I gave was 『Give me the books I need』 . I never specify the books I need to be only Grevin’s books . 」
「I see . Certainly, it seems that was also what’s written in the document you signed at that time…」
「That’s why, pass me whatever books pique your interest . But, let’s not going too far and takes books we might not read okay?」
「Ye~s, then, I will check from the inner part first . 」




「Alright, I will check from the front first then . 」
They split up and then go check their respective shelves .

There is no uniformed way of organizing with how the books lined up at all, a picture book for children can be next to a difficult technical book .
「What the heck is the criterion of this collection…」
After flipping the book for a bit, they decide what isn’t necessary to be put on the space they made earlier . There are novels too among them, Souta stores those series in the dimensional storage .
After Dina checks several books, she carries them to the empty space and hands over books that interest her to Souta . None of them are written by Grevin, those are the books that simply takes her interest .

After continuing for a while, they decide to stop for now because the bell that indicates the noon is ringing .

When they leave the archive, they can see Rudredd on the other side of the corridor .
「Ahh, you two to come out already . The noon bell is ringing, I was about to ask about taking a break . 」
Souta and Dina approach Rudredd, they ask in their mind whether Rudredd the leisure to do so .
「…… I will say this beforehand, it’s not because I have some spare time, I’m the one who keeps the key, so I’m currently fulfilling that responsibility, and I also have some break time . If you don’t mind, want to join me together to eat in the castle cafeteria?」
Souta and Dina look at each other, they confirm their intention only by eye contact .


「I’m grateful for the offer, but I would like to refuse . I have a favorite store in this town . 」




Dina nods deeply, agreeing with Souta .
「Houu~ I’m intrigued by this store that you even refuse to eat at the castle cafeteria . 」
Twinkles can be seen in Rudredd eyes .
「Then, why not come with us? It’s a bit far from the castle, so it might be inconvenient for you but…」
「Let’s go!」
His appetite can be felt from his response to Souta’s words .
「Please wait at the gate, I need to report about going out from the castle before I can come . 」
Having said that, Rudredd quickly leaves without waiting for Souta to respond .

「H-He’s really into the idea huh…」
「I never thought he would be that eager…」
The two look at Rudredd’s back astonished .
Not long after waiting at the gate, Rudredd come . Instead of his usual civil servant clothes, he changes his clothes into plain easy-to-move clothes and hides his face by wearing a hat .
「Sorry to keep you waiting, I’m late because I need to issue various instruction . 」
「I don’t mind, the store is always empty anyway . 」




「…… Is that store doing okay?」
Rudredd whose expectation seems to be excessive, feels uneasy from Souta’s words .

「It’s alright! The foods are so delicious, people don’t come because it’s in a confusing location!」
Dina fervently says so while making a fist .
「U-Understand, I believe you . 」
Rudredd is pressured by Dina’s zeal .
「You will understand once you eat their foods, for now, let’s go to the said stores . 」

Although he doesn’t mind walking around the city, once they reach the intricate back alley, Rudredd’s expression seems to be alert .
「I’ll check just in case, but you’re not lost right?」
「Should be fine . 」
Souta answers curtly while keeps advancing .

After turning on the alley a couple of times, Souta stops .
「We’re here . 」
For Rudredd, it’s the first time he arrives at this store that’s Souta and Dina already familiar to .
「Here is…」
Souta opens the door and goes in, the two follow behind him .

「Welcome… Oh? You come with the minister today?」
Seeing Rudredd’s face below the hat, Zofi shows a slightly surprised look .
「Yeah, he said he’s interested with the store we always went to, so I take him along . 」
「Heee~ To be acquainted with one of the top persons in this country, both of you surely well connected . Ahh, feel free to sit at your favorite seat . 」
however, she also comes back to the usual Zofi in a heartbeat .

Rudredd opens the menu once he’s seated, but wondered why Souta and Dina don’t look at the menu .
「Do you not look at the menu?」
「It’s because we have always ordered the same thing . 」
「Houu~ Then I will also order the same thing both of you order . So, what kind of food is it . 」
In response to that question, despite they never arranged the answer beforehand, they answer in sync .
「「Chef’s recommendation!」」
