Chapter 306
I went home after fetching up Hilda, who was staying at Megumi-chans house, on the way home from work.
Onii-chan, Hilda-chan, welcome home.
Welcome back.
Were home.
Weve been separated for a while, but the fourof us have finally gathered. Thank you for your hard work, everyone.
No, thank you for your hard work, onii-chan.
As we think back on the incident that has been resolved, we were finally able to take a breather.
Come to think of it, onii-chan, what happened to the conquering of the tower of sunrise?
Ah, now that youve mentioned it, there was also that one, huh. I was able to conquer up to the 59th floor in the end and theres only the 60th floor left.
Eh? Why did you come back when the goal was in front of you? By any chance, is onii-chan the type of person who stops just before the boss in an RPG?
Well, its right on the money, but
Thats not it, this times event happened right when I was going to the 60th floor, so I came back home in a hurry.
I see. Well then, are we going to go to the 60th floor now?
No, lets stop for now. Since theres probably a boss, theres no time as Im worn out with work. Lets go on Saturday with all preparations ready.
Understood, well then, its the Tower of Sunrises boss fight on Saturday, huh.
Even as the plans on Saturday were decided, the four of us ate dinner together.
However, while eating dinner, Elenas countenance is a little strange.
She seems somewhat down and lost in thought
When we were drinking tea after the meal, I decided to ask Elena.
Elena, you seem to be down, is something wrong?
No, umSeiji-sama, I have something to say.
What is it? You dont need to stand on ceremony.
Its rare for Elena to bring up a subject like this.
I learned about it at the church, but in this world, there seem to be a lot of people suffering from injuries and diseases. Because of that, Ive been thinking. Cant I help healing those people using my magic?
Hmmm, its a good thing that Elena is suggesting something shed like to do independently.
However, there are various problems with this..
Elena, you know that magic doesnt exist in this world, right?
Yes.
It would cause an uproar if Elena uses magic in public just like this time. I dont want to cause too much uproar if possible.
B-, But
I understand Elenas feelings as even I would like to do something.
However
Onii-chan, too, keeps acting violently in ninja form, right?
Aya butted into the conversation.
As for that, it cant be helped because it was to solve the incident. Besides, its fine since I covered my face with a mask.
Then, isnt it fine for Elena-chan to use magic if she wearsa mask, too!?
Are you stupid? No one would believe a suspicious guy wearing a mask to do something like healing wounds and diseases for them, you know?
If a mask is no good, wouldnt an omen mask be fine?
Omen mask?
What kind?
Ah, wait a minute.
Aya took out an omen mask from her [Storage Bracelet].
How about this?
It was a Nezumi-Mouse omen mask.
Youre going to make Elena wear this?
Is it no good? I think its cute, though.
Whoohoo, it is I, Nezumi-Mouse!
I will heal your injuries and diseases using recovery magic~!
Oops, I imagined something strange.
Ah, I also have something similar.
Elena, too, took out something from her [Storage Bracelet].
Its this.
Elena wore the thing she had taken out and showed it to me.
Its that.
Its something like a masquerade mask.
However, it has something like a feather decoration; it looks very elegant and suits Elena.
Elena, who wore that mask, looks just like a [masked magical girl] or some such.
Its good! Onii-chan, this is fine, right? Right?
Seiji-sama, is this fine?
Mmmm, what to do
Ill give you one condition.
Condition?
Elena, you should acquire [Invisibility] magic. Then, Ill saythat its OK.
[Invisibility]? Alright, Ill do my best to acquire it!
If she were able to learn [Invisibility], she will be able to escape safely when push comes to shove.
Its only limited during the day, but since Elena cant acquire [Darkness Magic], it cant be helped.
Now, how is she going to go about it
What about you, Hilda? Are you going to help Elena?
No, uhh
There are times when even Hilda would like to do something, huh?
Hilda, by any chance, would you like to continue helping Megumi-chan?
Yes! Id like to help Megumi-chan.
Theyve already become close friends.
There seems to be no problem with regards to this.
Alright, its fine.
Thank you very much!
And then, Hilda will become an idol, too!
Hilda, do your best.
Yes!!
Elena and Hilda have found something theyd like to do, huh.
Its a good thing.
Aya, do you also have something youd like to do?
Eh? Me?
You dont have!?
Let me see, we will be having a tournament as a club activity this time, but can I go?
Hm? Tournament? What kind?
Its a karate club so, of course, its a karate tournament.
Karate tournament?
Aya is going to participate?
Ugh, my head
Youre not going!!!
Why not!?
