Ha, I can't wait for it to get warm.

　Elinora sister, who was slumped over at the kotatsu table, blurted out.

　I could sense from her attitude that she wanted me to care about her somehow.

　When I was daring to go through with it, my leg was lightly kicked.

　When I glanced at Erinora sister, she gave me a look that could be called a stance.

　Brother Silvio and Mother Erna are here as well, but it seems that I am the one who is designated as the person to talk to.

''Is that because it's cold?''

No. It's because when there's snow on the ground, we can't practice as much as we would like.

　When I asked the question as you might expect, Sister Elinora answered smoothly.

　Normally, I think it is the temperature that makes me wish it would warm up sooner, but it seems that Elinora's practice was the standard.

It's true that if there's snow on the ground, we have to remove the snow, and if it's melted, the rehearsal space will be shabby.

'Yes!　If it's frozen, we'll have to change places, and we'll have less time to practice!

　When I throw out words of sympathy, Elinora's sister gives the reason for her decreasing training time one by one.

　Normally, Elinora Sis doesn't have a shred of feminine power, but when she starts talking like a woman in this kind of situation, she doesn't stop, surprisingly. However, it's limited to things related to training and swords.

　I'm not going to be able to get my hands on any more of Elinora's practice stories, so I talk to Silvio's brother who is reading next to me.

'Do you think Brother Silvio would like it to get warmer soon?'

Yeah, after all, I don't like the cold.

　Even though Brother Silvio was reading a book, he answered me with a disciplined look.

　Elinora sister's gaze pierced me as if she hadn't talked enough yet, but I went through it.

　I'm not the type of person who uses empathy alone to get a conversation going, so I'd like to have that done by Mother Erna or the Emma sisters, who are the same gender.

''How about Al?''

'Hmmm, yes. I can manage the cold with magic, but it's still hard when I go outside and wake up in the morning. It's not that I don't like it, but I think I like spring better.

　There's goodness in winter and goodness in summer.

　I'm not denying either of those, but I still prefer the more comfortable spring and fall.

　I wish I could maintain the right temperature at all times, but even magic has its limits.

　And I can't use my magic when I'm asleep.

''I wonder if Luna's territory is ever warm?

　Geez, could it be that Sister Elinora is planning to go to Eric's territory just for the sake of practicing in comfort?

''The climate in the Misfirito Kingdom isn't that different anywhere.

Yeah.

　However, Sister Elinora's hopes were crushed by Mother Erna's words.

　That's right, there wasn't a land in the kingdom with that much temperature difference.

''Then how far do we have to go to get warm?''

　I'm wondering how far you have to go to get warm.

'I think it'll get warmer if we get close to the Kingdom of Rasul.

It's the opposite of home. That's a long way from home.

　Sis Elinora moaned when she heard that.

'Oh, you do remember your geography properly,'

Are you f*cking kidding me?

　As expected, the words you just said were taken as too much of a lick, and Elinora sister glares at you with a snap.

　It's a good thing that you're able to do this, because if you're looking at the way Elinora sister usually studies, you know.

　It's a good thing that you're in the Rasul Kingdom, huh?

　I've heard that it's Natasha's hometown, and most of the country is deserted and has a hot climate all year round.

　Although it's a neighboring country, Koliat village is the easternmost part of the Misfirito Kingdom. It's quite far away.

　However, the distance is not so much of a problem for me, as I am able to transfer through spatial magic.

　I've never been to the Rasul Kingdom, but if I keep progressing through the transition, I'll be able to go there soon.

　It might not be a bad idea to go to the Lazur Kingdom as a winter retreat.

　You can practice transposition and practice increasing your magic power. Besides, once you've been there and memorized it, you can head there the next time you want to go sightseeing. You can kill two birds with one stone.

　Okay, let's go. Once you've decided to go, you can act.

　I lightly slipped out of the kotatsu and went back to my room to get ready.



　◆



All right, I'm ready to go.

　I had told Saara that I was going out, and as I walked out of the mansion, I had come to a meadow that was less popular.

　The snow is all over the place, so I can barely see any kind of flowering plants.

　Unfortunately, I can't even take a nap in the meadow, but today's goal is not to take a nap, but to repeat the transition and go to a winter resort.

　We can shift to the cold place without any trouble because there is no one here.

　It may be a long journey, but I have transference. If I don't misjudge the amount of magic, it will only take a moment to come back.

　And since the food and water necessary for the subspace is stored in it, you don't even need to pack a bag.

　It's a good idea to be able to go out dressed as if you were going for a walk around the area.

　The advantages of spatial magic are fully demonstrated.



　I take it out of the mansion and check the map I have stored in the subspace.

　The Rasul Kingdom, which boasts a vast land to the west of the Misfirito Kingdom.

　It's a good idea to continue transitioning westward all the way past the royal capital.

I've only been to the royal capital, so if we transfer to the royal capital and continue to transfer west from there, we will arrive at the calculation.

　If it's an absurd plan, that's fine as long as you have spatial magic.

　How far I can go depends on my magic power.

　On the contrary, the only thing to be careful about on a trip is also magic power.

　If you misjudged the amount of magic power, it would be difficult to make a day trip, and you'd have to wait until your magic power is restored, or you'd have to spend the night in a town or village somewhere.

　If I, a seven-year-old boy, stayed overnight, everyone in my family would be worried.

　I could lie about staying at Thor's house or my home, but if they came to check on me, that would be too much trouble.

　In order to cover up the lie, you need to pile on a bigger lie. Eventually it will come apart and be exposed.

　That's why it's best not to have any adventures.

　If you're suspicious about the amount of magic, you should turn back without transferring, that's an ironclad rule.

　However, I've successfully transferred to Kagura for a long distance before.

　The consumption of magic power was intense, but there was enough room to make a round trip and a half.

　I don't think the distance to Rasul Kingdom is farther than Kagura, but I'll be careful with my magic power just in case. On the other hand, as long as we keep that in mind, it's easy to take it easy.

　If you go outside, there will be demons, but if you move in transition, you won't have any close encounters.

　All you have to do is expand the map inside you by shifting over little by little.

''Then we'll start with the royal capital.

　I imagined the rooftop of the same building as last time and activated the transition.

　Then my vision went limp, and the next thing I knew I was on the roof of a house in the royal capital.

　The convenience is overwhelming as always. The distance that would take a week to reach by carriage is in an instant.

　I've come by way of transition to the royal capital, but I can hardly feel the drain on my magic power. There's no problem with the amount of magic power.

　To head out of here, you can leave the west gate and continue to head west, but if you go through the gate, you will naturally be checked by guards and knights.

　It's a bad idea for them to know that I'm supposed to be in the village of Colliat and that I can stay in the royal capital.

　If it's a baronet's family, which is not much, but my family is famous, and I've made more acquaintances like Alecia and Ra-chan.

　There should be no information leakage.

　When it comes to moving in a way that doesn't go through the gates--

I guess the sky is the limit.

　This would be the best way. If you can transition from the air and cross over, you won't get caught at a checkpoint and you won't be seen.

　Long live the illegal entry and illegal exit.

　I made a staircase with the shield, and I climbed straight up into the sky above the royal capital.

　Then, when I had gained enough altitude to avoid being seen, I checked the west gate.

　I'm aiming for the winter resort, the Kingdom of Rasul.

　With my eyes on the far west, I activate my transition.
