45 – What happened around you.

Linking the necromancer license and refined magic stones went fairly well. Erica, who has excellent dexterity, even succeeded in expanding subspace by connecting the two. However, opening and closing the subspace consumed too much mana.

Also, in the case of subspace, the necromancer had to open and close it frequently, but the time it took to open it was also a problem as it was a space. Because the time required to open it became longer and the mana consumption increased, the two people spent time shrinking the expanded subspace and changing the opening method.

“It’s not as easy as I thought.”

Erica, wearing glasses, straightened her back and said. Ed agreed and straightened his back. I had never dreamed of being able to enjoy nearly infinite space as comfortably as with a premium necromancer license, but now I couldn’t be satisfied.

“I have to shrink it first. It can be a little bigger than the subspace I have now.”

It was a narrow space of about 4 meters wide and 3 meters wide when filled with skeletons without other objects, so it was too small to store the Desert Lizard obtained here. The size of the now expanded subspace is fine, but the convenience is very lacking.

Thinking that they might understand why the North didn’t come up with the idea of connecting something else to the necromancer license, Ed and Erica went back to research.

He inserted the subspace expansion device and the small plate into which the necromancer license could be inserted, and Ed blew mana into it. The expansion device, completed with a double-opening structure that opened a large space at the back when a small subspace opened and a little more mana was injected, had plenty of space even after inserting the six Desert Lizards that Ed had secured this time.

Would it be okay to say that he is half as tall as the original owner, the Heavy Rock Turtle? The basic primary sub-space was increased to 4m*4m, and the secondary sub-space was also approximately 7m*7m in size. Ed stopped injecting mana with a satisfied look on his face after confirming that the sub-space had expanded to the point where he no longer had to worry about it unless it was filling up a large skeleton.

“Mr. Prosborne, how are you?”

“This is perfect. I don’t have dozens or hundreds of skeletons in subspace like other necromancers, so this is the level I want.”

Ed originally carried around 2 Death Knights and 10 Skeleton Knights in the subspace of the special necromancer license, which is said to be close to infinite even in the North, so this size was really spacious. I thought it would be a bit tight if I put Desert King Lizards in the second subspace, but anyway, I was able to store the eight Desert Lizards I currently have.

“I’m glad. Every time the magic stone decreased, I really stopped bleeding… I also had a good experience.”

The money Ed paid for helping expand the subspace was 200 million energy, and sales of the Heavy Rock Turtle exceeded 20%, so Erica gladly participated. I learned that the horns of monsters are an important element that connects the subspace to the world, and also found out that subspaces can be created if there is a material to replace them. It was a complicated task and fun to match the wavelengths of the magic stone and the monster’s horn in order to expand.

“I must go back now.”

Erica said with a little regret. Since he earned 200 million energy, he could play around for a while, but he had to digest some of the supplies coming to him from the Necromancer Association before he could get another job next time. I want to continue my research while staying with Ed, but when I talked while working together, Ed didn’t seem to be very interested in magic tools.

“Well. It’s like I spent a little leisurely.”

Ed got up and opened the window. The wide open sea under the bright sunlight. It’s winter in the south, but the weather is good for playing in the water, and the party, Glowin and Arebijou, are enjoying their vacation by taking a walk on the beach every day.

“The time has come to return to Les Sand.”

Ed wondered if the two enjoying their vacation would want to go back, but he figured it wouldn’t matter since Arrebijou had to follow him anyway.

“Didn’t you go to the sea?”

Ed, who had come down with Erica, could see the two of them near the studio. Glowwin, who wears a wide-brimmed hat to cover the scorching sunlight, looks like she’s on vacation, and Arrebijou, who is minimally armed, is a bit disparate, but now it’s a suitable combination.

“I’m tired of looking at the sea for two weeks. Did Ed finish improving it?”

Knowing what Ed and Erica were doing, Glowyn asked insinuatingly.

“Yes. Now I can enjoy the sea comfortably.”

“Are you going to rest for a bit and then go back to Lessand?”

“That’s right. I’m not going right away today, so Mr. Levy, please get ready too.”

“Okay. I wonder what else I’ll catch this time.”

After feeling that the two had enjoyed their vacation sufficiently, Ed thought it would be a good idea to go south. And then, seeing Erica sitting next to the two people, unable to speak to them, he spoke.

“Wouldn’t it be better if we moved together, Erica? I can use the train ticket I have.”

Unlimited room pass, it was okay no matter how many people in the party increased, but there was a limit on the size of the room, so it was practically no different than a table for 4 people. If you sit a little tight, you can sit up to six people, but since the party is a mix of men and women, I didn’t think to sit like that.

“Yes. I’ll go with you when you go.”

Ed nodded at Erica’s words and spoke to the three of them.

“I’m going to see the sea. I can enjoy myself comfortably today.”

“Erika-san is also taken. Except for the first day, everyone was in the studio, right?”

“Would you like to go with Erica?”

“Yes. Let’s go together…”

Ed walked towards the sea with Erica, who lowered her head and looked at the floor. Arebizou, who was left behind, said while looking at the two people.

“It’s definitely not a blood relationship…”

“At first glance, they look similar and look like siblings, but if you look closely, they are different.”

Although they had rare silver hair and blue eyes in common, their body shapes and faces were completely different. Just in case, Glowin inquired with Carla about Erica’s past and confirmed that the past Erica had mentioned was correct. What was unclear now were Ed’s parents, two people neither the Information Guild Kala nor Ed knew.

‘Though that’s not particularly important.’

It was a pity to lose his status as a super necromancer, but Ed had already amassed great wealth in the South. If you don’t buy a house in the center, somewhere like the Rica Coast, you have enough money, and you don’t know how much wealth you will accumulate if you go to the South again this time.

‘Do I want Ed to come back to center?’

I was interested in it because it was a strong existence that broke the repetitive daily life, but it was regrettable that I missed the most interesting part every time. It was a bit disappointing to think that we could draw Ed’s figure clearly by obtaining and combining information from more people than relying on one person.

“What will Levy do? Shall we go back?”

“Let’s go back and wait. Like you said, I’ve seen too many seas.”

“Whoa…”

Erica sighed and waited for the magic locomotive going north from the station. The three people who rode the east-west locomotive together went down south, toward Lesand, so I felt a little lonely waiting for the train alone. I usually get along well alone, but after a few weeks of interacting with other people, I felt more lonely because that interaction was cut off.

‘Because of the color of my hair or eyes…’ .’

It was the cause of my mother’s death when I was young, so people kept asking me if I was from the north, so I hid it whenever possible. I saw someone who looked like me, wouldn’t it be okay now? Of course, I don’t know if I’ll get caught up in trouble again, but the 200 million energy in my bank account gave Erica some unknown confidence.

On the other side, a magical locomotive descending south arrived. Since this is the southern terminus, it was possible to start immediately after the magic locomotive turned half a turn to change direction and did light maintenance at the repair shop. Seeing people getting off the magical locomotive that had stopped on the other side, Erika turned over the robe she was wearing on her head. Compared to Ed, her silver hair, which felt a bit whiter, blew in the wind.

But when he saw that neither the people getting off the train nor the people waiting for the train going up north paid attention to his silver hair and blue eyes, he let out a small sigh.

“Good.”

Determined not to hide herself now, Erica clenched her fists when she heard a woman’s voice beside her.

“Huh? Who do you resemble with silver hair?”

“Eh?”

I turned my head in the direction of the voice and saw a red-haired woman looking at Erica with interest.

“Even the blue eyes are similar… I knew Ed as an orphan, but did he have a younger brother?”

“Ed…? Mr. Frozenborn?”

“Huh? Do you know?”

Erika shuddered when the woman asked with her red eyes flashing.

“Mo… I don’t know!”

“Why? I’m not a bad person?”

The woman approaching slowly lowered her head slightly and whispered in Erica’s ear.

“I’m a necromancer who killed monsters with Ed in the north. Can you tell me where Ed is?”

Necromancer of the North. In addition, it was said that he had been catching monsters with Ed, so strength naturally came to mind. Then the red-haired woman lifted herself up and said.

“By the way, aren’t you really related to Ed? They look a lot alike? Can you give me your finger for a second?”

“Yes? Here.”

It’s a suspicious-looking woman, but I wondered how they would figure out blood ties. Because of that, my mother was suspected of cheating and even divorced. Erica held out the index finger of her right hand, and the red-haired woman grabbed it and bit it hard.

“hehehe?!”

I screamed at the pain I felt in my fingers and lowered my head in shame as people around me looked at me. The red-haired woman, perhaps aware of the surrounding situation, took her fingers out of her mouth and wiped them with a handkerchief she took out of her pocket.

“Not related by blood. So where are you?”

“It’s been a while since I left for Lessand in the south.”

“thank you.”

Erica, who was staring blankly at Hermona as she quickly disappeared out of the station, felt the gaze from those around her, so she put on her robe again and took out her glasses.

“I’ll never take it off…”
