Chapter Index

    “Charging complete!”

    After lying in the Master’s arms for a while, my headache gradually subsided.

    It has a much more dramatic and faster effect than the medicine I took before. In addition, it has no aftereffects at all, so it is a perfect superior version of the medicine.

    I would like to be held in his arms all day, but realistically, that is not possible. I swallowed my regret and quickly escaped from his arms.

    “Ahem, are you feeling better?”

    “Yes! It’s much better!”

    “Thank goodness.”

    The teacher, who had been pushing me forward, smiled and patted my head as he saw me stretching with a bright face.

    “This time, you really should go up first. I’ll wash up and change my clothes soon and then go up. Don’t you have to take care of Seo-yul too?”

    “Yeah.”

    I nodded obediently at the teacher’s words. It was just the right time for everyone to get ready and go out.

    I went up to the first floor, leaving my teacher behind as he headed to the shower room attached to the training center.

    “Your Majesty, Princess Iseo-yul has woken up.”

    [Okay, I got it]

    The fairy who was waiting near the stairs leading to the first floor nodded to Oru’s words.

    As Yoru said, on the first floor, Seo-yul was sitting on the sofa, having woken up.

    Seoyul was swinging her legs out of the sofa. Behind the sofa was Ariel, who had been looking after Seoyul more than Yeonhwa these days.

    I nodded to Ariel, who was bowing her head slightly, and approached Seo-yool, who was sitting on the sofa.

    “Yeah, Dad… ”

    As I approached, his eyes, which were still half-open as if he was still half-asleep, gradually opened.

    As I hugged Seo-yul, who naturally stretched out both arms, he said it was nice and dug into my arms.

    [Seoyul, did you sleep well?]

    “Yes… ”

    [Are you sick or tired anywhere?]

    “Yeah… It doesn’t hurt. We can go out together.”

    Seo-yool shook her head from side to side in my arms, wondering if there was a question. In fact, the answer to the question wasn’t that important. I patted her on the back and looked at her closely again.

    Fortunately, there are no problems. I usually pay close attention to Seo-Yul, but it wouldn’t hurt to pay more attention.

    ‘The magic is also well maintained.’

    I also checked the magic I had cast on Seo Yul while doing a health checkup.

    There are dozens of magic spells cast on Seo-Yul. There are also dozens of magic spells woven into the designs of the clothes he made himself.

    Basic barrier-type protective magic and instantaneous spatial magic. And counter-attack magic to subdue attackers, or if that doesn’t work, to tear them apart without leaving a single piece of flesh behind.

    These are magic spells that fully utilize the magical skills gained from the Tower of Magic Affinity and Knowledge.

    Thanks to this, time and brain were wasted, but I am satisfied because Seo-Yul’s safety has increased.

    As he smiled proudly at her, Seo-Yul, who had been writhing in his arms, suddenly narrowed her eyes.

    [Seo Yul-ah?]

    “Sniff sniff… ”

    He tilted his head and patted my back. Seo-yul didn’t respond, but raised his head and sniffed my neck. His breath tickled my shoulders and they twitched involuntarily.

    Seoyul’s forehead, which had been sniffing for a moment, furrowed even more than before.

    “Atla’s, I smell something.”

    [ah]

    I let out a belated exclamation. Since I had rubbed my body so hard earlier, it was natural that my body odor would linger. In fact, I had rubbed my body with that intention.

    But Seo-Yul didn’t like it at all and was busy rubbing her body against me with a look of displeasure.

    [sorrow]

    I wish I could smell the Master’s body scent from my body, but I’ll be hanging out with Seo-yul.

    I swallowed my regret and tried to dispel the buried scent with purification magic.

    .

    .

    .

    There was an opening ceremony, and some time passed while I chatted with Hong Seong-jin and prepared to see the festival.

    Especially since it was winter and the days were getting shorter, I could already feel the orange glow of the sunset outside.

    It’s around this time that some families are starting to prepare a late dinner.

    – Takoyaki! Made by Shiyoram Cadet himself! Takoyaki cooked with flame magic! You can taste them one by one!

    – How is that any different from household magic? Even your cooking skills are inferior to mine, yum…

    – There’s a lot of talk about free food. And you fucking obstructionist, I told you not to come. Eat that and get out of here.

    But the festive atmosphere showed no signs of abating. Rather, as if to counter the darkening sky, each street stall lit up its colorful lights, making the streets even more colorful.

    “Originally, festivals are held more at night. At night, the stars are visible, and the surroundings sparkle in contrast to the dark sky, creating a good atmosphere.”

    While I was calmly observing the festival, Elia, who was next to me, answered my question.

    She met up with friends she hadn’t seen in a long time right after the opening ceremony and had just joined the festivities.

    [Aha, is that so?]

    “Yes, my hometown festival also started at night. Of course, it was a small festival in the countryside.”

    I nodded, thinking, “Okay, that’s what it’s like.” I’ve never participated in a festival before.

    The birth festival experience from the original? Honestly, it was a bit miserable to think of it as a festival experience based on the game experience…

    Even after the first time, the birth festival was considered a fame event and spec-up event rather than a festival.

    “Hey, didn’t you say you were going to help the street vendor? But can you play like this?”

    “On the afternoon of the 4th day, I decided to help out with the street vendor for a bit. Yeonhwayeonhwa, aren’t you trying to take me away too blatantly…?”

    “Don’t drink raw food, what are you talking about just because I asked.”

    Elia wasn’t the only one who joined.

    There was the Master, who had come out of the mansion with them and was now calmly looking around, as well as Yeonhwa and Baek Arin, who had quickly joined and were bickering as if it were their daily lives.

    Professor Riana and Lee Ji-yeon were unable to join.

    As Professor Riana is the professor in charge of the first-year and spring classes, she was in charge of supervising the first-year students who were running street stalls or performing on the streets.

    Of course, it’s not like you don’t have any free time at all, but you don’t have much free time on the first day.

    Lee Ji-yeon’s side is meeting with the head of Taesan’s family, who visited during the opening ceremony, due to personal reasons.

    ‘… I need to pack something for Professor Riana. And for Lee Ji-yeon… Should I meet Ga-ju too?’

    I hesitated for a moment, but decided to push it back. The ominous feeling that the head of the Taesan family was giving off was still being interpreted, and judging by his appearance, it didn’t seem like he would be going back anytime soon.

    [Are you not cold or anything?]

    “Yes, it’s really warm.”

    [If it’s chilly or something, you have to tell me right away, okay?]

    “Yeah.”

    Seo Yul-i squeezed the hand that was holding hers tightly, spitting out white breath. But she was busy looking around with a distracted attitude.

    The curiosity in their eyes seems to be sparkling, as if they are finding this festive atmosphere incredibly novel.

    ‘It was good that I brought you out.’

    It’s so cute how the pom-pom on the tip of the hat twitches every time he moves his head.

    Although it hadn’t snowed yet, the weather was chilly, so Seo-Yul was wearing thick clothes that were almost fully equipped.

    Thanks to the consideration given to the comfort that Seo Yul would feel from the beginning of production, she doesn’t seem to feel any great discomfort even when wearing it thickly.

    He nodded at him and let out a loud noise.

    – Are you guys watching it well?

    – Yes, Your Majesty!

    – There are so many people…!

    – It smells delicious… Is that all food…?

    A voice rang in my head repeatedly. The voices were transmitted to the fairies sitting above my head and shoulders respectively.

    I felt bad about leaving him at the mansion and just leaving, so I brought him along to show him around.

    Of course, there is no need to cast a spell to attract attention. It may be okay for a person of average size, but even if you cast a perception-impairing spell on small children like this, they will feel uncomfortable.

    So, the fairies were given a different spell, one that did not cause cognitive impairment.

    ‘I was thinking of going out without magic, but then I wouldn’t be able to enjoy myself comfortably because of my fame.’

    Even now, drones occasionally fly overhead.

    It’s okay to be caught on camera, but if my group and I show up right away, everyone’s attention will be drawn to us.

    I also got stared at and talked to so many times on my way to the mansion after breaking up with Yeonhwa. It was so bad that I had to go into the alley late and have a cognitive impairment.

    [Seo-yool, aren’t you starting to get hungry? Should we buy something delicious from a street vendor and eat together?]

    “… Is it delicious?”

    [Yes, yes, it’s delicious]

    “Uh uh… ”

    As I tapped Seo Yul’s arm while he was absentmindedly looking around, and asked her, Seo Yul’s expression suddenly became strange.

    Seo-Yul, who had been rolling her eyes, glanced at me.

    For a moment, I was taken aback by the reaction, but then I looked as if I was puffing out my chest.

    [Wow, I have so much money, don’t you think? Seo-yul can buy a thousand or ten thousand street food items and not even notice it.]

    It’s not just a bluff. These everyday expenses can’t make a significant difference to my bank account balance.

    There was a time when I was terrified of the harsh prices of this world and trembled before spending money… Thinking back now, I was deeply moved in many ways.

    Of course, the cost of using it in the superhuman industry is extremely high, but I can somehow solve that.

    [So don’t worry, you can eat whatever you want]

    “… Okay.”

    After repeated appeals from me, Seo-yool eventually nodded. However, judging from the reluctant expression on her face, it seemed like she didn’t feel it no matter how much I insisted on having a lot of money.

    [Then shall we start with that? Chicken… no no no, pork skewers!]

    Instead of Seo-yul, who had no choice but to look around and hesitate to choose food, I took the lead and went in and out of the street stalls.

    They say that the flower of a festival is food. As the saying goes, there was an abundance of food to eat at the street stalls, as they sold all kinds of food prepared on the spot.

    “Omnyumnyum… ”

    [How is it? Is it delicious?]

    “B… Okay.”

    I already know that Seo-Yul eats a lot. Maybe it’s because she’s still growing, but she eats more than I do.

    So I kept putting food in his mouth, and he ate it well while watching me.

    As expected of a child in his growing years, I also felt a surge of energy and wandered around looking for a suitable stall.

    “Oh, come to think of it, I didn’t go to many festivals this year.”

    That was when.

    Yeonhwa, who was carefully eating the cup of rice so as not to get it on her scarf, suddenly opened her mouth as if she remembered something.

    “I used to go to the food festival in Taesan every once in a while and eat a lot.”

    “Pig.”

    “If I were a pig, you’d be an overweight seal.”

    “I’m going with my heart and it’s okay~”

    “shi… big! Who doesn’t think it goes to the chest? Huh? ”

    “But you’re smaller than me?”

    “This fucking shit.”

    “Oh my, the filter is coming off…! Oh, should we do that?”

    Baek A-rin, who was terrified, suddenly pointed to one side. At the tip of her finger was a machine placed near the entrance to the arcade.

    It was a punch machine that even I, who had never been to an arcade before, could immediately recognize.

    “How about a bet after a long time?”

    “That? Huh, you’re really bad at turning your attention, you sea lion bitch.”

    Yeonhwa’s lips twitched at Baek Arin’s gesture. Her expression showed that she would never let him escape. Baek Arin also let out a deep sigh as if she had no choice.

    “Ah~ If you’re scared, there’s nothing you can do.”

    “What?”

    Yeonhwa’s expression, which had been calm, hardened. Baek Arin, who smiled at that, quickly shrugged her shoulders with an expression of understanding.

    “No, what’s the smart thing to do? It’s stupid to get into a fight you’re going to lose. And since there’s nothing to protect this time, it’s right to back out if you think you’re going to lose~”

    Baek A-rin’s words poured out like a flood.

    “Well, I’ll give you a special treat just this once. Thank you.”

    – Snap!

    The spoon in Yeonhwa’s hand shattered at the sharp words. Yeonhwa’s trembling hand pointed to the punch machine.

    “Follow me, seed… sprout.”

    “The filter function has finally stopped… ”

    Baek A-rin approached the punch machine, shaking the shattered spoon in a hesitant manner.

    Yeonhwa followed behind with a laugh, and the others, including me, followed along with interest.
