The Small Sage Will Try Her Best In The Different World From Lv.1!-Chapter 40 The Black Bellied Racoon
Chapter 40 The Black Bellied Racoon
No, well, certainly since I used such a flashy magic like that, it couldnโt be helped that I became a rumour. ๐๐ณ๐๐๐e๐ฏn๐ผ๐ท๐๐.๐เซฆ๐ถ
Hm-m. Did I overdo it?
But I was quite desperate at that time.
When I was thinking about what I should do, Noir who was riding on my shoulder rubbed my cheek and said, โNyaanโ. Then, Purun who was riding Noirโs back moved to the shoulder opposite to Noir and rubbed my other cheek.
Ahaha. Both of you, that tickles-!
โOh my, Yuuri-chan. Youโre awake?โ
Along with the sound of the door opening, Amanda-san came in bringing breakfast. I wonder why? She usually ate meals in the dining room.
Perhaps my face expressed my question, since Amanda-san said, โAh, about this,โ and lightly lifted the tray she was holding in her hands up.
โI heard that there was a noble I didnโt really want to meet coming here, so Iโm evacuating.โ
Noble, huhโฆCould it beโฆ?
When I reflexively turned to look under the window, Amanda-san placed the tray and looked under the window as well. Then, she had a sour expression. ๐๐งโฏ๐๐๐๐๐ป๐ัต๐ฆ๐.com
โWhoa. Isnโt that Count Rainier? This is the worstโฆโ
โYou seem to know each other?โ
โHeโs a regular customer at my familyโs company. He has an innocent-looking face, but heโs quite a sharp and able person. Anyway, Iโm glad that I donโt have to meet him.โ
โWhat happened?โ
โHe approached me with the intention of making me his second wife.โ
โEh, but Amanda-san has Georg-san, right?โ
โThatโs right. Thatโs why I turned him down, but he was quite persistentโฆCount Rainierโs son, Lansley is also here in the Izel fort, so I had tried to turn him down from him, but he wouldnโt give it up. Certainly, itโs true that normally itโd be a great story if the daughter of a merchant family can get married to a noble, moreover quite a wealthy noble, but Count Rainier is a lot older than me, you know? Besides, I donโt plan on marrying someone other than Georg!โ
Awawawa. Amanda-san, your voice is too loud!
Sure enough, the racoon-looking person called as Count Rainier looked up. I closed the window in a fluster, but I felt like our eyes met.
โThis is badโฆAlthough I was supposed to be away investigating the Demon Forest, my lie might be exposed.โ
Or rather, I think that itโs certainly exposed. Since our eyes met just now. Moreover, I felt like the dwarf-san next to him called Krumm was also looking up at me.
I hope nothing will happenโฆ
But my anxiety hit the mark perfectly.
I thought that I could spend my time locked up in my room while Count Rainier was staying by asking Virna-sanโs cooperation to bring me my meals, but when I was summoned by Serena-san for a magic trainingโฆ
-He was there. The black-bellied racoon.
โWhatโs the meaning of this? Itโs supposed to be Yuuri-chanโs magic training.โ
Amanda-san put her hands on her waist as she reproached Serena-san at the entrance of the underground training grounds. That figure of hers clearly showed anger no matter how you looked at it, but the red pupils that flickered due to the anger was incomparably fascinating.
โCount Rainier is an Earth magician. He was going out of his way to teach some Earth magic that I couldnโt teach. I thought that youโd be grateful, so I donโt know why youโd get angry instead.โ
Serena-san didnโt falter from Amanda-sanโs sharp gaze, and her beautiful blue eyes were looking at us intently. In her eyes, I couldnโt see any ill intention especially towards Amanda-san.
โHave you asked for the leaderโs confirmation?โ
โWhy must I? Am I not this fortโs head magician? Even if I donโt ask Leonhart-sama, this is still within my authority.โ
โโYou havenโt heard, huh? Yuuri-chan, letโs return.โ
When Amanda-san turned her heels to leave, Count Rainier who had been silent all this time called and stopped her.
โThere isnโt any need to return this quickly, right? Itโs been a while since we last met. Let me see your beautiful visage for a while more.โ
As Count Rainier said that, Amanda-san silently took out and curled up a paper from her pocket. I saw it before, itโs a puff ball thatโs used here instead of letters.
Amanda-san blew on the puff ball and it quickly became white clumps of snow and flew away.
โThe leaderโs going to be here soon, so if youโd like to see some beautiful face, I think you can just see the leaderโs face.โ
โHahaha. Strong-willed as usual. Thatโs why youโre good, donโt you think so, Krumm?โ
โDwarves prefer meek womenโฆโ
โDonโt you think itโs good to have a strong-willed woman who will turn meek just to me? Really, dwarves are no fun.โ
Count Rainier was laughing, โKukukuโฆ,โ like a villain. Meanwhile, Krumm-san who was next to him turned his gaze away from Amanda-san, signalling his disinterest.
Really. Although heโs Gazad-sanโs friend, why is Krumm-san serving Count Rainier who seems quite detestable? Itโs a mystery!
