The next day, after eating breakfast, I returned to my room while remembering Anzu’s words.If it was closer, she would agree to go to Crimonia. Yet, for now, you had to take a large detour through the coastal road to get there. The only other option was to cross the mountain range. These two possibilities were both time consuming, and not very safe.I wanted seafood to reach the town, though.When I thought about, the best option would be to make a tunnel.If there was a tunnel, the distance to Crimonia would be shorter, Anzu would come back with me, and seafood would be able to reach Crimonia.There was a problem with making a tunnel, though.You couldn’t make a tunnel by just digging through the mountain.There was a difference in altitudes.If I just started digging horizontally, it was possible that I would just come out in the middle of the mountain on the other side. Also, if this side was lower than the other side, I would just end up digging through the earth forever.If I di
The next morning, after we had finished eating breakfast, Cliff and Mylene-san began discussing plans for the future in the dining room on the first floor."Then, we will just transfer a portion of the tunnel’s tax revenue to Nicole’s card, through the guild.""Procuring the magic lines will be a problem as well.""The light and wind magic lines, huh. Couldn’t the guild do something about it?""We could, but I’m afraid that the market prices might collapse if we did.""Then, as we thought, the best option would be to ask for the lines the capital has in stock?""I believe that would be for the best.""Also, since it’s something so important, we can’t really report it with just a letter.""You will be able to see your wife, so isn’t that good for you?""It would be, if I didn’t have any work to do. Right now, I have work to do, you know. On top of that, I have to take care of the business with the tunnel and this city becoming our territory, so my workload has increased even more. When
We ate the meal that Atora-san prepared.It was a simple fish meal, but Cliff didn’t complain. It was funny, seeing Atora-san’s anxious face as she watched him eat it."I prepared a carriage outside, so we should head towards the tunnel."She said after we finished eating.It seemed that she had prepared everything while we were eating.We went outside, where a roofed carriage waited for us."Cliff-sama, Mylene-san, it may be small, but please get on."She was right. It was small compared to the carriage Gran-san used at the capital.However, there were no nobles in Mireera, and preparing this carriage was probably the best they could do.Cliff, who understood that, wouldn’t complain."I don’t mind, so don’t worry about it."The carriage could seat three people on each side, opposite of each other.Cliff, Mylene-san, Atora-san, and the three elders.Jeremo-san headed for the coach seat.So, where would I be?Perhaps, the roof?That wasn’t the case, as it seemed that Atora-san and Jere
Anzu’s issue was put on hold until the tunnel was finished.Deiga-san told me that the chances were good, so I was looking forward to it.I said goodbye to Anzu and Deiga-san, and left the inn. Atora-san, Jeremo-san, and the elders came to see me off."Atora-san, thank you for everything.""What are you saying! I am the one who is really grateful! You can stay longer if you want, but that can’t be helped, right? Nicole, we will always welcome you, so do come visit, okay?""I built my house here, so I will return. Also, please say goodbye to Blitz’s party for me."I thought that they would be back already, but that wasn’t the case.Well, we did say our goodbyes when they departed."Yes, I will. I’m sure they will be surprised when they come back."I didn’t know if they would believe it or not, though.I looked for Jeremo-san and saw that he was speaking with Mylene-san. He noticed my gaze and approached me."Jeremo-san, I will be counting on you about the matter, okay?""It’s a request
I went to the Commerce Guild, which I hadn’t been to for a while.I took a quick look around for Mylene-san, who was always slacking off, but the Guild Master wasn’t sitting at the reception desk. It was possible that I wouldn’t be able to see that scene for some time. I felt sad when I thought about that, but for the employees, it was probably something to be happy about.As I was thinking about which reception desk I should go to, since she wasn’t here, I noticed Riana, who had taken care of me when I bought the plots of lands, so I decided to go to hers."Nicole-san, welcome. What business might you have here today? Is there any problem with the land you bought the other day?""That’s not it. I have no problems with it. On the contrary, I was thinking if it was really okay for you to sell it to me that cheaply.""No problem, I heard the story about Mireera from the guild master the other day. Keeping that in mind, the land was a cheap price to pay. You will have a commerce rank of
In a vast waterless beach.“What should I do now that I’m here?”I get a stick and draw a circle.“This is my space, I’m drawing a circle to mark it.”After drawing a big circle, I walked to the center of the circle and sat down.“What should I do now?”I said and kick the sand.“Kicking sand doesn’t seem to do me any good… And they're not anything as much sand in this place.”I turn my glance to the sun with an exhausted face.“... Even the sun is lifeless. Just hanging there sleeping in the sky.”I held my knees and turn my glance to the sand.“Doing nothing probably the best plan.”While sitting at the center of the circle. A saw a shadow figure on the sand. It looks at me and talks.“Hey… My name is Mayu.”This shadow is just my imagination. This shadow figure always shows up when I’m doing nothing.“Can I ask you some questions? Here it goes…”Here we go with the questions again. I really feel tired of it. I just want to do nothing.“Can I pass if I want?”I asked.“It’s up to
In the rocky mountain on the edge of the northern map. The few officials of the demon king army are currently camping there before they made their new hideout.“I can’t believe that the demon king is not even in the war. The demon king truly didn’t care anymore. I can’t believe she change so quickly.”The one who’s talking is a member of the former leader of the assassination squad of the demon king army name rocket. Using his ability to make human size rocket with his magic. He continuously destroys the giant rock in the mountain area.Eriko gets a marshmallow and puts it on the stick. She then let the fire burned the marshmallow for a little time. After the marshmallow became softer. She then gets a chocolate cracker and puts the marshmallow on it.Making a bite on it, Eriko’s eyes glimmers.“So good! This is so great! Marshmallow is truly one of the spirits of camping.”“We’re not here to relax! We’re supposed to be planning on having revenge. We must kill all of the humans.”Said
Opening my eyes, I woke up in a familiar place. I turn my glance around me and saw the girl that I love the most peeling apples. Maple after peeling the apples sliced I and make a rabbit on it. She made a smile and appreciate cute it was.“Maple…”She turns her head toward me and gives me her smile.“Mayu… Good morning.”“Good morning.”I stood up from my bed and seat. Maple was worried and escorted me.“Are you okay? Is there something hurt?”“No… No, at all.”Remembering the last thing that happened to me while I’m in the war. All I know is that I’m battling Eriko the blood manipulator. No matter what I do, Eriko always has the advantage.Eriko rarely has a weakness. Her blood manipulation, immortal-like regeneration, magic, and beast taming ability are very powerful even I have the wisdom of all magic as a wizard sage.While I’m in the middle of a battle with Eriko. I unlock my strange ability. This must be a genesis bearer ability. At that time, I’m able to do a time leap. After I
In the blink of an eye, almost one year has passed. The world destruction ritual was postponed because of Mayu’s death. Everyone was devastated and sad about the news. Especially to her significant other Maple. But this time Maple remains strong-willed and stays cheerful despite the happening. She continues living in the restaurant and assisting Akane. With Noah’s Plan in world destruction and making the whole world underwater using the genesis bearers powers failed. Princess and Isacia took advantage to defeat her. With all the royal family dead. Princess Charlotte was in charge of the whole kingdom. The true dragon race came into agreement with Princess Charlotte. The threat in the world was gone. Noah and Creator of Magic Mayu. A peace treaty was made. The leader of the true dragons the blue dragon girl named Cyan promised that the true dragons as part of the divine race will never gonna do anything that will harm the whole of humanity. The same promise was made by Princess Cha
I didn’t expect such an occurrence to happen. The surrounding was bright and full of happiness. There are some quarrels here and there but everything was moving fine.“There are too many customers we expanded and bring some tables and chairs outside the shop.”Using Megumi's plant magic. She created fairytale-style chairs made of vines and wood. From the roof, a big leaf was used. With that upgrade, the shop was looking magnificent from the outside.The customers are kept ongoing and everyone was helping us. Laura and Princess Charlotte already invested in the shop and brought many ingredients to keep the serving continue.With the insane challenge given to Akane. Akane was more fire up and started cooking in front of the customers like one of those live cookings.Seeing how big Akane’s smile was. I was thinking of Akane really wanted to become a sword saint. Cooking is a much better suit than her.“Can I also help the shop?”A little girl come and approached me.“Eh? Sorry but this i
The day has come. Waking up early in the morning. I opened my eyes. My room was still in darkness and the light was the ray of the morning sun coming from my window.I get up and seat on my bed. Made a big “Yawn~” and stretched my hands upward. It was still too early. The grand opening of our coffee shop was set at nine in the morning.Being the first one to wake up. I walked around the house and opened the main entrance door. Still with my exhausted self from sleep.“Well, gotta start getting things early…”Opening the door I saw a swarm of people waiting outside the restaurant. Even it was too early. There is a huge crowd waiting already.This is very surprising. I closed my eye’s again to check if I’m in reality.“Hmmm!”The breath burst from my mouth as I look at them.I closed the door and fixed myself as fast I can. I then wake up everyone whose still happily playing on their dreams. I pulled them out and presented them to the long line outside of the restaurant.“There are lots
It’s Autumn season the green leaves of the trees turn maple brown. The cold breeze of the upcoming winter is already felt. People are mostly busy cleaning the dry falling leaves.But in Floaroma City, that suppose to be the case. People are busy for another kind of reason.Colorful flags were placed around the city. Different kind of stall was constructed. People are getting busy displaying the product of Floaroma city.Early in the morning, the whole staff in the restaurant decided to have a day off together and walked around the city.“Wow, pretty.”Sasa said as she looks at a sheet of fabric displayed in the street. The fabric has different patterns on it and very pleasing to the eyes.“That’s right… I guess it is a festival season now.”“What sort of festival is it?”“It’s Floaroma’s dance festival. It started 250 years ago, and everyone dances however they please in the town square or the highlands. It’s about offering the fruits of the harvest to the earth god and praying for a
I gripped my sword tightly. Reinforcing the whole of my body with magic. I dashed forward and make the first slash. My sword clashes with the Demon king sword. After the first clash, it was immediately followed by the second and the third. In just a few moments our sword is already moving at terrifying speed.I always battle Akane with my sword. I know how swordsmen already swing their swords. I predicted the demon king's slash and intercepted them immediately. Unlike how Eriko battle me earlier. This battle is farther more extreme. Expected of the demon king.I already put revenge on the people killed by Eriko. Reflecting on myself. I was wondering…Why I’m still fighting?To me who don’t have anyone to protect anymore. Why I’m still fighting? I thought over and over again.I made the first strike but as the battle drags out. I’m looking toward Megumi’s face.Unlike me, Megumi has a future. She has a future with her child. Emiko needs a mother. Killing this person in front of me is l
“Let’s amuse each other until the end, my playmate!”Eriko dashed forward. She swings her red blood sword attacking me constantly.I manage to avoid all of the attacks because of the increase of speed of my new form.Focusing magical energy on my sword. I counter back slashed Eriko’s chest. My sword was covered with magical power and the strength I put on the sword was each to the magic I used. Resulting in a black spark that dealt incredible damage to Eriko’s soul.“Soul piercer!”“Managing to use soul piercer with a sword… You’re truly a talented one…”After successfully using a soul piercer with my sword. I get closer to Eriko and attack her continuously. When the soul piercer was successfully hit it the target. The target was stunned for few seconds.Within that seconds Eriko can’t move. I have to continuously attack her and destroy her soul.When I destroy her soul. That means she won't be reincarnated ever again. This evil will be erased forever in this world.To all of those pe
In the demon realm, the hunting and the hunted battle continues. Day and night monsters and demons continuously appeared right before my eyes.The divine race fear of the creator widens and want to kill me as fast as possible. But that is something I never wanted.I want to survive no matter what… I will go through this and destroy everything on my way.Katia beside me with her sword. She made a sword stance to prepare herself for combat.“Mayu they are coming!”I concentrated and beneath the ground. The monsters and demons emerge. Breaking the ground and causing destruction.“These monsters must be familiar. They are all programmed to hunt the creator's vessel.”“There are so many of them.”About a hundred monsters suddenly appeared. They are not just ordinary monsters. They are all S-rank monsters that can destroy an entire city if they wanted to.Not even a genesis bearer can handle such a number by myself. Especially that each monster has I’s own set of skills.Running won’t make
It’s been three months since Mayu left the restaurant. Leaving me with just her letter. I still feel fearful about what's going to happen to her.As usual, the restaurant was lively and has many customers. Sasa and Nana are steadily getting used to serving customers quickly. Megumi was now the chef when Akane was gone.Akane also feels bitter about what Mayu decided to do. Even still, I know that Akane feels anxious about Mayu. She is her closest friend after all.“Welcome to the red riding restaurant. Can I take your order?”“It’s the rumored cutie in the restaurant. It’s Maple.”“Your name was so cute just like your face.”“Can I take your orders now?”A normal day has come and I was forced to smile as I look toward the customers. Most of them are annoying always asking for my phone number and more.I’m exhausted. I thought and then goes inside the back of the restaurant.In the back of the restaurant was an alley. They are almost no one walking in this place. Looking bout the sky.
I have a dream… A very very long dream. A dream about me in the past. For a weird girl like me, childhood is rough. My family wasn’t as caring, but still, I’m grateful for the life they gave me.Without them, I would be unable to experience everything I’ve been through.Life comes in many flavors. Sometimes it's sweet, sometimes it's bitter. Sour days always come and there is a stale, tasteless day of boredom.Back in Japan I only care about myself. I never thought that I would need someone at my side. I always think that I can do everything on my own.I keep proving that everyone else around me was wrong. I accumulate money and live alone. It was fun being able to do anything without someone yelling at you. This freedom and loop of happiness. Being a slave to pleasure is for sure. If not made moderate, it will surely destroy someone’s life.Where am I again? I see, I’m back in my house again.Waking up early in the morning, there as I wake up Marie and Shuri playing with Shirone and
