Even though it was night, the market was crowded with people, with lights everywhere.

The city that never sleeps ... well, that's what they say.

　Marise, walking next to me, muttered.

'This isn't the first time I've gone out at night but it's always fresh, no matter how many times I come here.

　Lara is also frolicking in the area.

　The bustle of the capital hasn't changed much since a thousand years ago.
　The city at night shows a different face from the daytime. The nighttime atmosphere lifts my spirits and makes me reach for things I don't need.

　Just like that, the two of us and I were shopping for sweets and juice.

Hey, hey, man.

　Hmm?
　He called out to me from the side.

'Would you like to have a drink?　You're a good man, so I'm going to have to serve you the first drink!

　When I looked, there was a woman with a large exposed bosom looking at me with a lustrous gaze.

　Huge.
　What is, I mean her breasts.
　They must be comparable to Lara's, right?　
　Even if I wasn't trying to look, my gaze naturally turned towards my chest.

''Ku, stay away from Kurt!
It's true!　And Kurt's looking too much at a woman's breasts.

　From both sides, Lara and Marise grab my arms and try to keep me away from the glamorous woman.

'Oh my, I had a lovely girlfriend. I wouldn't be able to match you with such a childish woman.'

　A woman giggles as she giggles.

'What do you mean by that!'

　Lara puffs out her cheeks as if she's angry.

'I meant it just the way it is. You seem to have big breasts, but you don't seem to have the charm of an adult. You know what I mean?　Mi-li-ku.
'Oh, you're just being vulgar too!　And Kurt we're still students, you know?　I'm not ready for a store like that!

　While I was doing this, the woman glanced at me sideways.

It doesn't matter. There's no law against children drinking alcohol.

　Hmm. It's true that in this world........or rather, in the royal capital, there is no age limit for drinking alcohol.
　However, it is recommended that you must be over 20 years old to drink alcohol.......but that doesn't mean there is no penalty for drinking.

'And you,'

　The woman poked me in the chest with her finger.

''You're a student of the magic academy, looking at your uniform, aren't you?　And yet ... it's hard to believe you're only sixteen or so. Thirty ... forty years ... no, because you seem to be living a more profound life.
..........

　The woman's keen observation made me unable to form words either.
　I've been reincarnated from a thousand years ago, as I've said many times before. In that sense, what this woman says is not necessarily wrong.

　However.

''Don't mislead Kurt by saying weird things!
Kurt is our guy!

　Mugiyu.
　Lara and Marise hugged my arms with an even stronger force.

'Hmmm, I can't help it. I'll let you off the hook this time.'

　The woman fluttered and waved her hand in resignation.

'But ... if you can't get me out of your mind, you can always come here, okay?　I'll entertain you personally.

　For a change, a bewitching smile appeared on the woman's mouth.

'I'm never going to go!
Kurt!　What would happen if you came to this store without telling us you know what would happen, don't you?
Yeah, of course.

　I hadn't planned to go from the beginning, but I was confused by the power of the two of them not letting me say things.

　After that, they were forcibly dragged away by Lara and Marise.




''I'm not prejudiced against ... that kind of water business either, but not when they take away Kurt!

　Lara and Marise were pissed off about what had just happened.

　We're walking back to the school, having finished our purchases.
　We are farther away from the market, and the streets are becoming less crowded.
　It's no wonder that some people are tired from the school festival. It's no wonder that the popularity of the market is decreasing.

''Hmm?''

　Just then, Lara finds something.

'Hey hey sis, are you going to defy me?　Do you know who I am?
'I don't know!　Let go of me!
I don't like it.

　A pair of men and women.
　The man grabbed the woman's hand and pressed it against the wall of the building.
　The woman's face was contorted in disgust.

'Kurt,'
Hmm.

　It looks like a poor quality pickup.
　I don't feel good about missing it. It's because people like that make me feel sick just by looking at them.

"Hey,

　I stood in front of the man and woman and called out to them.

'Oh?'　What's up with you?
That's my line. The woman doesn't like it. Let her go.

　I grab the man's hand and force him to let go of the woman.

d*mn it...!

　At first the man tried to resist, but he couldn't resist my power and made a face of anguish.
　He was a man with shaggy hair. I wonder if his age is similar to ours.
　If you look closely, his face seems to be well-defined, but it's useless if his heart is lowly.

''You ... you know what it means to do this to me, right?

　The man's voice contains anger in it.

'I've seen a lot of guys who spit that line out in my time. Every single one of those guys fell down in front of me.
I guess I'm going to have to punish you a little for that.

　The man holds up his hand and tries to deploy the magic formula.

　But.

'Too late.'

　I grabbed the man's face and pushed him to the ground as it was.

''Guhaha........!　Why isn't the magic working?　What do you mean?
It's treacherous magic.

　It's really........poorly done.
　But still, I thought my face was well known in the royal capital.
　That's why it's rare for people to come to you like this and pick a fight.

"Keep your head down there for a while.

　As soon as I let go of the man, I deployed my gravity magic.
　Because of this, the man is unable to stand up.
　The only thing he can do is to get down on all fours and keep his cheek from the ground.

"Ki, you........!　Remember. I've memorized your face. This debt is going to cost you.　After all, I am--
Oh, man, you're a talker.
Guh!

　The man was soon unable to speak as he further strengthened the magic contained in his magic.

'Let's go. Lara, Marise.
Uh-uh!
'But what was that man anyway?　I think I've seen this somewhere before...
I don't know.

　I'm not much interested in that.

　We were going back to the school after making sure the woman was not injured.
