Chapter 70

Before going home, they make a detour to the real estate agency . It’s to take the key from Fuura, who was asked to manage the house . As they enter the shop, they find Fuura dozing off on the counter .




「Fuura… Oi, Fuura, wake up . 」
Since she’s not waking up even after being called, Souta decides to shake her shoulder .
「Fuura, it’s a customer . Hurry up and get up . 」
With that, she opens her eyes and raises her body .

「N, Ahhh . 」
She raises her face and looks at the surroundings, and after making sure Souta is there, she gradually wakes up .
「Finally, you got up . I want you to return the key, since I’ve come back…… Are you listening?」
「Fuwaa~…… Un… I’m listening . 」
Yawning, she stretches her body to wake up, and at last, she grasps the current situation .

「Fuhh-, I’m finally awake . Sorry, yesterday I was up late sorting documents . 」
Fuura rises from her chair and greets him from the start again .
「Souta-san, welcome back, that was quick . I never thought you would finish in one month . Your purpose…… were you able to do it?」
She asks that while sending her gaze toward Dina and Roury behind Souta .




「More or less . By the way, one of them is not my companion, but Elmia’s mother . 」

「Fuee~ El-chan’s mother? I can’t tell . No matter how I look at her, there seems to be no resemblance…… Wait, do you mean it’s the golden-haired woman there who’s El-chan’s mother?」
She asks while pointing at Roury .
「Yess~ present . I’m Elmia-chan’s mother, Roury . I’m planning to live in this city for the time being, please take care of me . 」
「…… Errr~, are they really parent and child?」
Fuura, whose hand is grasped by Roury for a handshake, sends a doubtful gaze to Souta . In response, Souta just deeply nods silently .

「Well, Roury will live in this town, you may meet again so you can stop at that . For the time being, I want you to return the key…」
「Oh, right . Please wait a moment . 」
After that, she enters the back room and brings out the key after a while .
「Sorry, I put it in a safe so I wouldn’t need to be worried about losing a customer’s possession . I will prepare the money now . Ummm…… . 」
Fuura, who believes that trust in business is important, put the keys in the safe aside from when she took care of the house . In addition, the valuables and money she managed were also put in a safe, albeit a different one .

「No, just keep it for now . It’s been decided that I’ll go on a journey again after a while, that money is set aside for that time, is that okay?」




Fuura, who was going to open the safe, stops her feet, and then nods to Souta .
「Got it, please tell me if you need it . 」

「Now then, the key is returned . Also when I go on a journey again, I’ll tell you . At that time, please take care of it too . 」
「Yess~ I’ll definitely take care of it . Also, Roury-san and that person over there too, please come if you need to rent a room, here we also have information on property for rent . 」
「Yes, I will leave it to you at that time . 」
「I wonder if I should live with my mother for the time being . 」
Dina and Roury answer differently, and then they leave the store .

After leaving the real estate agency, they go straight to Souta’s home .


Upon reaching his residence, Dina and Roury stare at the mansion .
「Is this your house, Souta-san?」
Dina imagined it to be an ordinary home, hence her surprise when she learns it’s the size of a mansion when they arrive .
「S-Souta-san is rich, aren’t you?」
Roury also imagined the same, so she’s also surprised at the size of the mansion .





「Ah, I wanted to use it as a base, so I wanted it to be spacious . The number of people might increase more and more, so having spacious base will prevent us from feeling cramped . 」
While replying to the two, Souta opens the magic wall using the key magic tool .
「W-What did you do just now? You turn the key at empty space, didn’t you?」
「Ah, this huh . This is that sort of magic tool . I made it with my companion on the journey of the old days . 」

Roury is shocked by Souta’s remark . It’s a high-level magic tool seen for the first time, moreover, he says he made it . Of course, alchemy by itself is not enough to make it, but knowing that an unknown alchemy technique was surely used surprises her .
「Well, since the development also stopped at the prototype stage, it hasn’t been circulated to the world, I think there are only two or three of these that exist . 」
「Tell me the manufacturing method…… It’s impossible to do, isn’t it?」
Souta shakes his head lightly .
「I feel bad, but this is impossible . I didn’t make it alone, moreover, it’s dangerous depending on the usage . If it’s the one we made, I can track the item from the outflow of magic power one way or another . It will be troublesome if there’s an exception to this . 」
「Right, sorry . I’m just saying, don’t worry about it . 」
Roury apologizes to Souta with her shoulders slumped .

「Now then, it’s already open, so let’s enter . 」
Upon entering the gate, they go to Ed’s resting place and remove the carriage body .
「Well then, Ed, we’ll be inside, so call me out if there is something . 」
After Ed nods to him, Souta takes meals and water to Ed’s resting place .

 

After entering the room and escorting the two into the living room, they fall onto the sofa .
「Ah~ so tired~」
「As expected, I’m also tired……」
Fatigue from a journey over a long distance and a long period of time, on top of which is mental fatigue from coming to a place they’re not accustomed to, all of that comes at them with full force now they’ve reached a place to rest .

Only Souta doesn’t show tiredness, and he prepares a meal and cold drinks in front of the two . The smells stimulate the two’s appetites, and so they manage to wake themselves and eat the lunch vigorously . It seems like they’re quite hungry, so Souta then serves an additional meal .

After finishing the meal, the two lean on the sofa and fall asleep .
「Although we planned to go to Carena’s shop after a while…… waking them up right now would be pitiful for them . 」
Souta takes out a blanket from his dimensional storage and lays it over the two people . After that, he starts washing the dishes and heating the bath water .

They wake up by the time the sun is about to set .
