49-Hades were too strong




 I will undo the unreasonableness of the world.
 I just had one of the most embarrassing experiences of my life. It's important to say that I have no taste for such things, and I don't get any pleasure from them.
 It's important to note that I have no taste for such things, so I'm not going to go ahead and say that I have no taste for such things, but in spite of that, I suffered a level of psychological damage on the main street in the afternoon that could be called a public execution.

 It seems that Black is currently under the influence of two types of magic, information hiding and recognition inhibition, so people around him don't notice that he is the Dark Lord unless he speaks to them directly.
 It's a countermeasure to prevent people from coming to the famous Black's side when going out with him.
 The fact that the people around me perceive me as an ordinary girl in town is a huge negative factor in this case.
 In the early afternoon, a young girl of only 140 centimeters in height was seen as a man in his twenties drinking a couple of sticker fruit on the main street, and I was considered a pedophile.

It's a good thing that you're not the only one. What's going on?
''Well I was just thinking about how I'm going to walk around town from now on...''
Yeah?

 I reply to Kuro, who tilts his head curiously while holding my hand, with a gaping shoulder.
 If they were just holding hands, even a brother and sister would still have passed........no, wait. Didn't it say that the age of marriage is low in this country? So, maybe the scene we just saw was at some level of comfort... then maybe it's okay? No, leaving aside my mental damage, I might be safe from a social standpoint.

 As I was thinking about this, I noticed that the atmosphere around me had changed a bit.
 The number of restaurants in my field of vision has decreased, and there are more and more small shops that look like street vendors.

What is it, the atmosphere has changed a bit?
''Yeah. There's a lot of 'personal creation magic tools' shops around here.
A personal creation?
It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for. You can find a lot of rare and unusual items that are one-of-a-kind, so you might be able to find a bargain.
Yeah, that sounds interesting.

 I'm not sure I'll ever be able to find a way to get my hands on them.
 I'm sure you'll be able to find a lot of people who will be able to help you with this.
 I'm sure you'll be able to find a lot more than you need to know.
 For example, in the room that Lilia-san assigned to me, there is a magic tool that adjusts the temperature within a set range, which can instantly warm or cool the room with just a touch.
 I wish we had them in the original world as well, because they are so much better than air conditioners.

 It seems that many of those magic tools are sold around here with even more special effects, which is simply exciting.
 I'm not sure if it's a good idea to go to a store with a moving ball of water in the air, or a swirling wind in the air.
 While I was looking at several stalls, my eyes were drawn to such a fantastic scene, when my eyes were suddenly drawn to a signboard.

''.........A magic tool for space transfer? Um, what kind of magic tool is this?
Well, guest, you're looking good. This wizardry tool is great because it records several points and can get you there in an instant.
'That's great. Can you travel to far away places?
Of course. It's true that you can't move from the human world to the demon world or the divine world, but if you're in the human world, you're good at moving! And this guy can be used over and over again! I guess that means I can travel as much as I want with this thing.

 In response to my question, the owner of the store explains to me in a light-hearted tone.
 This magic tool seems to be what is called a warp tool.
 I'm sure the location is recorded, so you need to visit the place once, but I still think it's an amazing magic tool, and... honestly, I want it.
 I'm sure that in the future, when doing tourism in this world, if spatial transfer is possible, it will be very useful.
 But if that's all it is, I'm sure it's expensive....

How much is it, by the way?
'Cheap price today only, R30,000 now!
30,000R....
....

 It's still expensive. 3 million yen, more than half of what Lilia-san gave me........but when you consider that I can do space transfer as much as I want, it's probably a cheap buy.
 In fact, even if you have 50,000R, it seems unlikely that you'll ever run out of it all, so maybe I'll buy it.

I mean, that's-- "Stop, Kite, you-- what?

 I was curious and was going to ask for a more detailed explanation, but at that moment, Black opens his mouth.
 And after looking at the spatial transfer magic tool once, Black speaks to the man who owns the store.

''A one-time disposable tool costs 10,000R, but a spatial transfer magic tool that can be used multiple times is 30,000R?


 The owner of the store looks astonished when he sees Kuro. I see, I hadn't spoken to him earlier, so he hadn't noticed that Black was the Dark Lord.......

''For a magic tool with that much high performance, I'd say it costs at least R5,000...I think it's at least five white gold coins or more...that's pretty cheap, isn't it?''
Oh, yeah, that's, uh...

 
 Let's see, a magic tool for space transfer is originally more than 50 million........

This Demon Crystal... it's something like 30% pure, right? It's a messy surgery, and that's the best we can do to move from town to town, right? Moreover, with a demonic crystal of this size and low purity, it would take 'half a month' to reuse it once it's used, right?
...Oh, no, I mean...
Black? What the hell is purity...?
''The higher the purity of a magical crystal, the more magic power it can store, and the faster and more efficient it is to replenish the magic power that has been reduced by the magic in the air. That's why the higher the purity of the Demon Crystal, the more expensive it is.
...Well, does that mean that this magic crystal is a cheap one?
Yeah. And it's pretty small. Spatial transfer magic requires a large amount of magic power the farther you travel, so if it's a magic tool that can move from country to country, it would have to be at least 80% pure and about three times this size to be able to use it properly.
....

 I see, the shopkeeper certainly didn't explain the distance that can be moved or the time it takes to reuse it.
 In other words, this magic tool can only transfer space about a few kilometers at best, and moreover, once you use it, it will take more than two weeks before you can reuse it, or the owner needs to replenish a large amount of magic power.
 It's true that moving is a good idea, and you can use it over and over again, but if I think back, I didn't say anything specific about it...you're good at it. If it weren't for Black, I would have been a perfectly good customer.

''So........so? She's a very dear friend of mine...
I'm sorry, too!

 The shopkeeper, who was sweating profusely with a pale face to the point of pity, got down on his knees tremendously after Black's words.
 Umm, hmm. It's true that I was almost cheated.............It was a clever way of saying that, but I wasn't telling a lie. It would be a fine line if you asked me if it was a scam or not.
 Even if I had been tricked into buying it with this, it could be said that it was just me being careless for buying it without checking carefully.
 Moreover, considering that I was found out by this extraordinary being called the Dark Lord, I can't even blame him too much. But I'm already crying....

Kite, what do you think? Do you want me to give you a scolding?
What?
'Yes, no, it's fine. No real harm was done, and you apologized to me, so...
Well, if you say so, Kite, the next time I see you do the same thing I'm going to be a little pissed.
Ha, ha, ha, yes. It won't happen again.

 Feeling a little sorry for the man in his late thirties who was crying and desperately trying to get down on his knees, I left and walked with Black again through the stall area.
 Thanks to Kuro, no real harm was done earlier, and in a way it was a good lesson.

''Black, is the purity of the Demon Crystal something I can understand even if I see it?''
'Hmm. It's difficult to detail, but I think you can get a general idea. The higher the purity of the Demon Crystal, the darker the color, so you can use that as a guide.
Okay.

 Apparently, it seems that the more expensive a magical crystal is, the darker its color becomes. That means that the most expensive magic crystal is black in color........hmm? Wait a minute....
 The necklace Black gave me. The necklace with the detection magic in it was all black in color... could it be of such a high value?
 Did Black give me something so awesome that he just gave me a gift? How rich are you, Black?

 As I was walking along, once again realizing how amazing Black is in many ways, I suddenly felt a strong presence.

''.......What is this?''
"...hmmm. There's something coming.

 Apparently Black felt it too, and we stopped and turned our gaze upward at about the same time.
 Immediately after that, we heard a scream-like cry, though we didn't know who it came from.

''It's a wyvern!''
Huh?

 With that voice, the surroundings become noisy all at once.
 Out of the corner of my eye.......there were seven large shadows that moved as if they were circling in the sky above the royal capital, demons with green scales and huge wings.......multiple wyvern figures were there.

''Why the wyverns?!''
'Did you fail to take them down? That's ridiculous!
Ha, call the Order.

 The shouting and shouting that could be heard from all over the place, and the obvious anomaly of a wyvern attacking the royal capital.
 I'm sure the strange presence I felt a moment ago was due to my sensory magic sensing the approach of the wyvern.
 I'm not sure what this feeling is, something like the will that comes from the wyvern, is contained in it... fear and impatience?

Did you get away from the strike force?
'Hmmm. I don't think they'd engage in a battle without setting up a warding spell... but seven of them is too small to be a flock, and I think it's normal to think of them as survivors who have escaped. Maybe they ran away from 'something that wasn't a strike force'.

 The situation is quite tense, although Black replies calmly to my mutterings.
 It's a wounded beast in the sky, so to speak, and it could attack at any moment.
 They are circling in a circle in the sky right now, but if all of them attacked at once.......

Black...
Kite. Do you remember what I said before?
...What?
'You talk about me staying out of trouble in this country for no reason that means I'd be involved if I had a reason.

 In response to my impatience, Black replies to my impatience by quietly mumbling a few words.
 It's a quiet and unassuming way of saying things, and what I feel from it is ... anger?

I'm having a great time with Kite and I'm having a great date with you...
Excuse me, Black--what?

 With words that seem to hold back his anger, Black snaps his fingers.
 I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.

You're going to be able to get the best out of it. I've dressed up a lot and that's why I'm going to be angry if you interrupt me?

 Immediately afterwards, the sky above turned black as if it was being painted with paint.
 A little while later, the blackened sky returned to its original color, and there were no shadows or shapes of the seven wyverns there.

''........''
Okay, it's over... and let's move on, kite.
...Oh, um, Black...? What the hell are you doing now?
Yeah? I got in the way of my date, so I used 'Space Annihilation Magic' to get rid of it.
I'm sorry.

 Space Annihilation Magic! What's that, it's already horrible just from the letters! Did you erase it? Did you just wipe them out? 
 
 Or rather, the wyvern that disappears within seconds of appearing is too pathetic. I never dreamed the day would come when I would feel sorry for the wyvern.

 Dear Mom, Dad - I thought the Wyvern appeared in King's Landing and I thought it was a flash in the pan - but the Dark Lord was too strong.
