Naturally, the turns of Sylvia and Elfriede were postponed.

I left the summons to the two of them and greeted Princess Elena.

Upon reaching her through the guards’ walls, the human barrier closed again.

Elena lets out a small sigh and defeats them.

“Get a little further away. What would other people think?”

“But now there are a lot of outsiders around, so it’s dangerous.”

Because of the attempted assassination of the last event, he is openly wary.

As the escorts say, it is true that it is much more dangerous than usual.

But Elena did not yield.

“But there’s no need to stick around. Aren’t you so confident in your own abilities?”

After the princess spoke twice, the escorts reluctantly retreated.

At that moment, she regained her smile and held out her hand.

I politely grabbed it and walked towards the center road of the academy.

On the first day of the festival, from the beginning of the festival, there are various stalls and experience areas.

Most of them had tents set up by the roadside, but there were also quite a few full-fledged stores.

What if you take it somewhere and you don’t like it?

Suffering from such a burden, I was looking for a good store, and Elena thankfully chose me first.

“Shall we go over there?”

“Oh, yes.”

A shop boasting a majestic presence among the tents swaying even when the wind blows a little.

It was a teahouse with a strong sign of construction using even summoning techniques.

Caffeine, which has recently been popular in large cities, is doing something.

The interior is also luxurious for something that was built in just a few days.

It seems that the number of digits in the budget is different from other stores.

‘If I spent this much money, I don’t think it would make a profit even if it was full throughout the festival… Did you open the store for promotional purposes?’

Because it is the beginning of Jungang-ro, there is already a long line even though I left early in the morning.

However, when Elena illuminates her face once, the line splits left and right.

I entered the store with my head, which was about to bow down, forcibly.

The son of the count family under the Duke of Beltern brings the menu himself.

Unlike conventional coffee houses, they do not sell alcohol.

In addition, most of the customers filling the seats are women.

When I chose a decent menu, Elena ordered similarly.

Even during the day, there is no alcohol, so the atmosphere is good.

“I really didn’t know that tea-only shops would become popular…”

“It’s a job to invite people to your mansion every time you meet someone you know.”

“It would certainly be like that when it came to the royal family.”

After sharing a light joke, the menu quickly came out.

Elena was easy to deal with, except for the fact that she was royalty.

Treating others seems to be ingrained in my body.

At the same time as she picked up the teacup and took a sip, a strong sense of drowsiness touched her tongue.

I deliberately ordered a decent menu, but even considering that, I’m too used to it.

As I smirk inside, Elena smiles contentedly.

“I think they use very good tea leaves.”

“I’m glad. It’s a product delivered by our family.”

“Yes? Really?”

I thought about it over and over again because I was afraid it would be like I was fluttering for nothing…

No matter how you look at it, the tea leaves grown by the handmaiden are correct.

I’ve drank this a few times so far, and now I can’t get confused.

Elena, who had been talking about various things, naturally asked to invite her to the mansion later and got up from her seat.

The line at the cafe was getting longer.

Since we came to the festival, we walked around leisurely, eating some street food, and parting ways before dinner.

Eventually, as the sun went down, many stores started selling alcohol as if they had promised.

Tired of walking around in the morning, I went straight back to the dormitory and fell asleep.

I felt like I would be able to fall asleep because of the noise of drunks if I had done it for nothing.

the next morning.

Medusha, who had already returned to the dormitory, sat on top of me and shook her shoulders.

The partners on the second day were Medusha and Persia.

I freshly washed my body and left.

“Okay, now it’s my turn. I looked around yesterday, and I saw a few shops…”

The first place I stopped by Medusha, who was running while holding my hand, was none other than yesterday’s cafe.

I came so early today, so I think I’ll be able to get in right away.

By the way, do I have to go in there one more time?

After a moment’s hesitation, the two of them tilted their heads.

“Master, why are you like this? You don’t like that?”

“No. Let’s go in.”

After a short deliberation, I decided to take a stand.

It’s the second time for me, but the first for Medusha and Persia.

With that in mind, when you enter the familiar shop, the clerk brings you the menu with a shaky expression on your face.

He drank tea while pretending not to see her, and then escaped the store.

I’m going to the next place with Medusha, who is very excited… This is the place I stopped by yesterday too.

but. Since there is only one store that stands out in each area, there is no choice but to overlap with the first day.

Still, there will be an event or schedule that is different from yesterday.

The place where Michael and Elpentus and others fought in the past.

The musicians were seated there, which has now been completely converted into a concert hall.

Medusha, who was tasting the fried snacks after cutting the potatoes into thin slices and putting them on a skewer, naturally showed interest.

“What is that? Let’s go.”

“Do you think you’re still preparing?”

As I spoke with full of anticipation, the stage host betrayed it.

It also serves as a test of stage equipment and recruits participants on the spot.

A voice amplified by a simple spell echoes toward me.

“Ah, Count Elcloud! Come and pick a song.”

I tried to reject the joke with a bitter smile, but…

Medusha slapped me on the back.

“Okay. Let’s go.”

“What?”

“I want to hear you sing. Those musicians look pretty good. They’ll be able to play whatever song you choose.”

I learned a lot from the handmaiden, but singing had nothing to do with it.

From n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

Just what you call

When she looked at Medusha with such a gaze, she quickly shook her head.

“The main duty of the goddess is not to play, but to appreciate.”

“Master, be strong.”

Persia cheering as if slightly weakened.

Eventually, I tumbled up onto the stage.

I’m not confident, but if my summons is black, I’ll have to.

The host with a wicked smile handed me a staff with amplification spells.

“I didn’t know you would really come… It’s an honor. Then, what kind of song would the Earl…”

“The duke is using summoning.”

It’s a bit odd to sing the dukes of Welttern on stage, but unfortunately I don’t know any other songs.

Thankfully, I remember this because I heard it at the last concert.

The lyrics are also very strong, so I didn’t forget them.

While the host showed a rather strange expression, the band started playing.

It seems that the song is more popular than expected.

I expected an answer that I did not know such a song, and I sang with a stiff neck.

“The summoned beast used by the Archduke, the Duke is using it today… Steno and Euryale. Control the sea route…”

A voice that I can’t see.

There were also a few beeps in the middle.

Medusa and Persia hold onto their boats and laugh, while lamentations flow from the audience.

“What are the lyrics…”

“Count El Cloud, are you really merging with Beltern?”

“I’ve been walking around with Elfriede for a while now…”

“No, it could just be that Elfriede is getting married to Louise. A new heir will be born soon anyway.”

When I finished the song with a lot of speculation, the host patted me on the back saying I was sorry.

After memorizing his face, I went down the stage, determined to get revenge.

After that, after finishing the day by fulfilling Medusha’s request as much as possible, as soon as he returned to the dormitory, he slept as if dead.

The next day, as soon as the first rooster crowed, I was forced to wake up by the voices of Ethel and Laurier.

“Louise, wake up quickly! It’s our turn at last!”

“Can we have fun together today? We’ve been looking at a nice shop…”

I go to the cafe again with the two guys tightly sandwiched between them.

As if to make up for the lack of skinship, it maintains close contact all the time.

The clerk at the cafe looks tired now.

After leaving the cafe, I ate a snack made by coating the fruit with syrup and fries in the shape of a whirlwind again. After stopping by the experience class of the Summoning Alchemy Department, I enjoyed the game developed by the board game club.

I’m so used to the rules now that I have to watch it on purpose.

As they continued the close battle, they narrowly lost, and Laurie, who won the victory, sang delightfully.

“I’m sorry, Louise. I should have looked into you…”

“No. Even if it’s your first time, you’re really good.”

“One more round!”

While the angry Ethel asks for a rematch.

The director of the board game club who taught me how to play the game looked like he was struggling.

Still, Ethel and Laurie didn’t sing like Medusha.

As if trying to rip me in half, they each pulled in a different direction and went through the autumn festival.

Eolin, who was tasting the snacks the students had bought while stacking them on the bench, looked at me and muttered as if it were nonsense.

“Why do you change partners every day? What kind of lion are you?”

“The lion is stuck in the house, so even if he stays still…”

“Louis! That’s the next one!”

Maria and Christine, who are tomorrow’s opponents, thought that they would walk around a little more leisurely, but…

Rather, they visited stores of major subjects and showed more activity than expected.

Act as if bragging.

In the meantime, of course, the cafe was not forgotten.

“It’s a pandemic in major cities around the fortress.”

“Oh, yes. That’s right…”

I hate festivals now.

Originally, I should have rested tomorrow, but I have no choice but to push Sylvia and Elfriede’s schedules.

After being dragged late into the night by Maria and Christine, they return to the dormitory.

Sylvia, who had been watching me for several days, showed her depth.

“Master. The complexion doesn’t look good, are you okay?”

“I’m playing every day, is it okay, what do you have to do?”

I tried my best to respond calmly, making sure Sylvia didn’t worry.

She is a precious vassal of our family.

It should be treated as the same as the summoned beasts.

Maria and Christine sometimes seem to show their faces in their booth, but…

My summons have been playing for 4 days and they don’t seem to get tired of it.

He waved his hand at Sylvia’s worries and went to sleep.

I left the dormitory the next morning and, without realizing it, was walking towards the cafe.

It’s almost become a habit now.

“Lord, master. Wait a minute. Today, we’re going to take a leisurely stroll around the outskirts.”

“What? It’s a long-awaited festival, but is it okay?”

Sylvia wouldn’t have been able to enjoy the festival properly as she was monitoring my minions to avoid accidents.

But she nodded her head coldly, moved to a quiet bench, and forced me to lie down halfway.

Elfriede also follows her and settles down on the same bench.

The gloved hand runs through my hair.

“Did you continue to look around the same route until yesterday? There are booths that stand out for each area anyway.”

“Are you too embarrassed? I know you well.”

“Of course. I have served the master here the longest.”

Sylvia speaks proudly with her chest straight out.

Elfriede, sitting next to her, sheds her eyes while admiring her slightly.

“Today, I just relax.”

“thank you.”

I roamed the fringes of the festivities with sincere gratitude for Sylvia’s care.

Fortunately, a corner or unpopular booth wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.

While enjoying a leisurely walk, stopping for no apparent reason.

An unexpected sight was seen at the entrance to the busy central road.

“Well?”

“Master. Why are you like this?”

Sylvia and Elfriede naturally follow my gaze.

In the direction the three of them looked together, strong men were stacking wooden boxes.

Looking at the signs stating not to touch it, it looks like it’s a firecracker to be used tomorrow.

I wonder if I can leave something like that in the alley… But even the city guards are mobilized for this festival.

It is natural for the borders to become stricter as it is a country where even outsiders come and go.

The problem is that I witnessed the exact same scene last night.

The amount of the box itself looks the same, but what did you replace it for?

When I revealed it, Sylvia sniffed it with a cautious look.

“Ummm… Gunpowder is gunpowder, but I don’t think it’s for fireworks.”

“okay?”

“Yes. Usually fireworks are made to be colored by mixing gunpowder with a metallic compound, but there is no such odor at all.”

“Everyone, isn’t it just a misunderstanding? How do you know that in the first place…”

“My senses have not been so dulled.”

Sylvia shook her head coldly at Elfriede’s question.

There’s an unfamiliar atmosphere in the air.

I was contemplating what to do.

At the same time, Michael, who was looking around the festival, found a box in the alley and was annoyed.

It looks like the stress has piled up while others are playing.

“I told you not to put this out in advance. I know it’s hard to finish the installation on the 6th day, but what if someone sets it on fire?”

“Fireworks must be the responsibility of Summoning Alchemy… I’ll bring it in now.”

“Ha… President of the Student Council!”

After hesitating for a while, when I tried to report a sense of incongruity, he recognized me and waved my hand warmly.

“Uh, mother-in-law! Where are you leaving Maria?”

Why do you dare to call me like that, leaving behind a good name for cousin?

I clicked my tongue inward and walked over to him.
