Well, I finished it.
"Huh?

 One afternoon.
 One afternoon, while we were both reading in the living room, Charlotte approached me curiously.
 Allen closed the book he was reading and laughed.

You're early. You've already read it?
"Yes, I did. Yes, it was so interesting, it went by so fast.

 Charlotte nodded her head, still holding the thick book to her chest.

 The book she was reading was about this country.
 History, culture, major industries, tourist attractions. It was mainly a guidebook for foreign visitors, written in a frank style, but the content was still profound.

 Charlotte is from the neighboring Kingdom of Neils. This is the first time she's been out of the country, and Allen thought it would be good for her to get to know the country.

 Forgetting about time and immersing myself in reading.
 It's a small thing, but in today's busy world, it's a very luxurious moment. In other words, it's a bad idea. Maybe.
 There was also the important purpose of resting Charlotte, who would have cleaned the whole house if left alone.

 That's why I gave her the book, but I didn't expect her to read through it so quickly.
 Charlotte opened the book happily.

I've read about the Athena Academy of Magic that Allen-san and Eruca-san were talking about. It's a big school.
Well, yeah.

 Allen squinted at the black-and-white photo of a familiar school building.

 Athena Academy of Magic is an incredibly large school. The students, teachers, and other staff are about the size of a small island nation.
 It's the place where he was kicked out about three years ago, but it's the school where he spent most of his life. I have a certain amount of affection for it.
 It's been a while since I've been there.
 I grinned and asked Charlotte.

I smiled and asked Charlotte, "Is the school the place you're most interested in? Is there anything else?
"Well, there are many, but if I had to pick one, it would be .......

 Then Charlotte's hand, which had been flipping through the pages, suddenly stopped.
 Allen tilted his head and looked at her with a frightened stare.

If I told you where I was interested in ...... what would happen?
You'll know where to go tomorrow.
I knew it!

 Charlotte exclaimed and turned mysterious. Allen shrugs his shoulders at the strange reaction.

You don't want to go far? Well, a woman has to carry a lot of baggage.

 When I used to live with the Crawfords, I was taken on family trips about once a year. Remembering the scene, Allen smiled.

I'll take your luggage. I used to carry my mother-in-law's and ELCA's suitcases with my uncle.
"No, no, that's not what I meant. ......

 I'm not sure if you've heard of it or not.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.
You don't have to be shy about it.
But I love spending time with Mr. Allen here at the house.

 But I love spending time with Mr. Allen in this mansion," Charlotte said, smiling wryly. Every word seems to be a lie, but ...... Allen is a little frustrated.
