How do we get into the room without Akari and Tetto noticing us....

　One idea is to use transference magic.

　However, transference requires a considerable amount of magic power, so Akari should be able to notice you when you deploy the magic circle.

　If it was possible to do that in the first place, there was no need to come all the way to the front of my room like this.

　You can connect to Akari's room with transfer magic from my room, and then place the gift by her bedside.

　Now, what shall I do?


　And then it hit me.

　I'm not sure I'm going to make it, but I'm going to try.

　It's going to be okay.
　My gut tells me that it will work.


　I kneaded my magic power and deployed a tiny magic circle, being careful not to exceed my magic power that was filling the mansion.

''.........''

　Good, neither Akari nor Tet seems to be awake.


　In order to alert the enemy to the intrusion of demons and other enemies, and for Yoko and Mai to absorb their magical power, this house is usually filled with my magical power.

　It's partly intentional, but my home is the most relaxing place to be, so when I'm in such a place, my magic path loosens up and my magic power is released on its own.

　That's why this house is usually filled with my magic power.

　Whenever someone comes to the house for a birthday or for some other reason other than family members, I have Yoko and Kikyou absorb their magic power. If I don't do that, the guests will get spell drunk.

　My family is already used to it, so even my magic power won't cause them to get magic sickness.


　Also, my transfer magic consumes different amounts of magic power depending on the size of the magic circle and the distance it travels.

　The size of my test deployment this time is about 1 millimeter in diameter, and the distance it travels is 5 centimeters - in other words, just enough transfer magic to move to the other side of the door.

　I knew that as long as the magician's magic power is reduced to less than my own floating in the mansion, Akari and the others won't notice me.

　If that's the case, this should work too.

　I'm going to deploy a magic circle that is large enough for each person to pass through.

　The distance to shift is...


　About a half a millimeter ahead.
　It's inside the door.

　Akari and the others hadn't even noticed this magic circle.


　Okay. Let's go.

　Trusting my intuition, I walk towards the door.

　The body enters into the transference magic.

　The body that left the magic circle, before hitting the door, the next magic circle is deployed anew.

　You'll be able to use it to help you get to the next level.

　It's like slicing my body into 0.1mm slices and sending them sequentially to the transition destination.

　My transition magic is a magic that moves through the 'space in between' that connects the spirit world and the human world. The body that entered the transfer magic circle in this world, using this magic, exists in the space between the two worlds for only 0.1 millimeters.

　By the way, it is said that ordinary humans cannot survive in the space between the two without a spirit escort. I'm a fixed status, so it's not a problem.

　It's a bit of a forceful wall-passing technique that only I can use.


　I was able to successfully pass through the door.
　It's perfect, if I do say so myself.

　

　I just brought a gift to Akali, but I've mastered a new magic.

　I look forward to being able to use it in a real battle one day.


　

　I was able to leave the present without Akali or Tet noticing.

　That next morning──.


Brother Hal!

　Akari burst into my room.

'Good morning, Akari. What's up?

Look at this!　I got a present from Santa Claus!

　As Akari said this, she had two packages in her hand.

　One of them was the one I had placed at her bedside last night.

...You got two presents?

　It's funny.

　I'm sure there was no other family member moving around last night besides me....

My brother Hal (nii) gave you this one, didn't he?

"Eh.

　Akari holds out a gift package with a red ribbon on it.

　I put it on her bedside table last night.

"Did you notice me coming into your room?

'Nope. Neither Tet nor I noticed that brother Hal (nii) brought me a present.

So, why do you think...

'Brother Hal (nee). I have a skill called super intuition, remember?

Oh.

　That's right.
　Akari has a skill called super intuition.

　It's equivalent to what my brother, Cain, has, and it can tell you the consequences of what you predicted to be 'somewhat so' and whether it's correct or not.

'I told you about my brother Hal (nii) and Santa Claus a while ago. So I thought that maybe brother Hal(nii) gave me a gift, and Skill gave me the answer.

'Uh, well...'

　They knew.
　They knew I was going to be a gifter.

　Huh?　Then what's the other gift that Akari has?

Akari, what's yours?

　I asked as I looked at the package she was holding in her left hand, with the blue ribbon on it.

'This is the present I got from Santa!　Santa Claus is really a real person!

　Akari said with a bright smile.

'But if it's true, Santa Claus in our world only comes to 14-year-olds, right?

Yeah, I know, but how do you know that?

Santa Claus........or Gifter in my world. I got a letter from this gifter. 'This year it's special!'

What?

　The white paper that Akari showed me...

'I'm really only allowed to give gifts to children up to the age of fourteen, but you had your first birthday in this world yesterday. This year is extra special.

　That's what it said.

　What is this...?

　Oh, I don't know about that.


"Santa Claus really exists! Good thing I'm in another world.

　Akari looks very happy.

　Eh..........

　Is there really a Gifter?

　But if there is a Gifter in the house, that means it's a pretty badass existence.

　Even a demon wouldn't be allowed to enter my mansion, and it wouldn't even fall for the thousand traps I set.

　Moreover, there was no reaction to my magical power that I had deployed so that I could immediately detect the intrusion of someone, either.

　There are beings in this world that are skilled at infiltration and covertness.

''Brother Hal (nii), look!　Santa's present, that's the material I wanted!

　The gift that Gifter gave me was the same 'Crystal Deer Antlers' that I gave to Akari.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this in the future.

　It seems that gifters also have the ability to know what they want.

　Moreover, he knows that Akari is from another world.

　Gifters are badass.
　Could it be that........they're actually gods of creation?


　There are a lot of things that are bothering me, but so far they don't seem to be doing any harm.

"Ehehehe.

　Most importantly, Akari is happy.

　I don't know what she's planning to create, but since she looks happy, I'll call it a good thing.



　I see.

　There really is a real Santa Claus.
