The teacups I gave to Shigenobu-san were definitely made by Nebula and not national treasures like Yohen Tenmoku. In the first place, being able to simply make something like that is amazing.
They did say that the actual Yohen Tenmoku doesn’t have a starry sky-like burnished finish as beautiful as Nebula’s yunomi teacups, but unfortunately, Hina-chan and I have no knowledge of pottery, so we have no clue what they were talking about.
[I just heard from Nebula that she calculated what the pattern would be like when baking it……]
[Is that possible? No, I think it does seem possible for artisans to do that, but to do it this perfectly? ……Well, there are many people in this world for whom our common sense doesn’t apply, so I can’t really say that’s impossible……]
[I mean, even that magic tool Kaito-senpai wears on his arm is beyond common sense for not only us, but also for the people in this world.]In response to Shigenobu-san, who looked perplexed but somewhat convinced, Hina-chan spoke, seemingly being reminded of something. By magic tool on my arm, she’s obviously talking about my Teleportation Magic Tool.
This magic tool, which makes use of the white magic crystal I got from Shiro-san, actually is quite an outrageous item.
[Is that so? At first glance, it just looks like an ordinary magic tool……]
[Ah~~ Errr, this is a Teleportation Magic Tool.]
[……A Teleportation Magic Tool? A Teleportation Magic Tool of that size?]
Thanks to Hina-chan’s strange pass, I was worried about how to explain it, but Hannah-san also tilted in her wonder.
I guess her confusion is understandable. A normal Teleportation Magic Tool is huge after all. Even the latest Teleportation Magic Tool bought by Sieg-san is about 1.5m tall, but it’s apparently already considered a small model.That’s just how complicated Teleportation Magic is and how high of a mana expenditure it requires.
[……Errr, the magic crystal used for this is extremely special…… There’s no limit to the magic formulas that can be carved into it, and since it internally generates magic power, one could say that the magic power it contains is almost infinite…… In addition, it doesn’t deteriorate with multiple usage and the passage of time.]
[ [ ……Huh? ] ]
[I knew you would react like that. I understand how you feel, but since it’s a magic crystal created by Shiro-sa…… by God of Creation-sama, it’s just beyond common sense in all sorts of ways.]
Incidentally, this magic crystal currently has various functions applied to it, such as Teleportation Magic, Causality Intervention Recovery Magic, which healed my wounds when we were attacked by Black Bears before, and there’s also that magic that returns this magic tool back to my arm with just a thought.
However, even with all the magic already engraved in this magic tool, Kuro mentioned how she could engrave more and how she felt like one can engrave as many magic formulas in it as they want. Well, since it’s an extremely special magic crystal, it seems like it’s impossible to engrave magic formulas into it unless they have skills on the level of Kuro or Alice’s……
[……A- Ahh~~ Errr, I did hear in passing that you have God of Creation-sama’s Blessing…… but that really was real?]
[Y- Yes, that was real.]
[……I see. Well, I also heard about it from Kaori-chan, so I didn’t think it was a lie…… but I still had my doubts.]
[Yes, if it’s just Rei and Fia saying that, I would have thought they’re just exaggerating things again……]
[……Eh? Rei-san and Fia-san? You know them?]
That was an unexpected name drop there. According to the way Hannah-san said it, she seems to have heard about me from people other than Kaori-san, and those people are Rei-san and Fia-san…… She’s definitely talking about Sieg-san’s parents.
[……Ahh, come to think of it, Sieg-san did mention how Rei-san and Fia-san were acquainted with an otherworlder, and that they imitated their house and made a porch in their home……]
[Yeah, they’re talking about me. Rei and Fia…… Rejnhardt and Sylphia are old traveling buddies of ours. We’ve known each other for a long time now.]
[ [ [ Traveling buddies? ] ] ]
Hearing Shigenobu-san call them traveling buddies, Aoi-chan, Hina-chan and I tilted our heads almost at the same time.
[Yeah, I used to travel around the world. Not like an adventurer or anything like that, more like a traveler wandering around. There was a period in time when I wandered from place to place with no particular goal in mind.]
[Period in time he says, but we’ve wandered around for more than 50 years.]
[Hahaha, well, it’s true that we’ve wandered around most of our lives…… Well, during that time, we got to know a lot of people and sometimes traveled with them. We also got to know Rei and Fia at that time and traveled together with them for a while.]
[Heehhh…… That’s kinda nice. By the way, why were Rei-san and Fia-san traveling?]
A relationship that became friends after getting acquainted in the middle of an aimless journey. That somehow feels like an RPG Hero Party, and it’s kinda nice.
In fact, even now that their journey has ended, it seems that they’re still good friends.
[Ahh, they were a couple of delinquents who ran away from Rigforeshia because they wanted to travel the outside world.]
[Eh? Is that right?]
[Yes, Rei was someone strong enough to be ace of their defense force, and Fia was a Spirit Mage who had a promising future and should have had a stable future, but they apparently found such things boring, and after refusing their solicitations, they ran out.]
[Those two may now have a child and have become parents and they’ve become a little calmer, but back in the day, they were horrible people. For example……]
The topic of a common acquaintance found in a place I hadn’t expected brought about a lively story, and hearing Shigenobu-san having fun talking about the old Rei-san and Fia-san that we didn’t know about was fun.
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [They looked like the silly duo last I saw them, but from Shigenobu’s point of view, that state was actually them becoming calmer huh……]
