Chapter Index

    Actually, even before I came here, I thought I knew why Joy was so social.

    If our cute Joy suddenly starts bullying other people, there’s only one reason for it.

    Me. I guess you’re trying to show me off in front of everyone because you were bullied in social circles in the past and now that your positions have changed.

    It’s typical of Joy that she didn’t think that that was the seat that she would find the most awkward.

    But I’m afraid of what will happen later if I just say that he’s being silly and let it go.

    Other people don’t know that I feel uncomfortable when I see others being burdened.

    Then, from the perspective of people in high society, I become a scary bitch who uses her friend’s power to get revenge for the past!

    There’s no point in trying your best in social circles! The shady people in society will interpret my actions as they see fit and then hit me in the head!

    ‘What does that mean?’

    Grandpa. It pisses me off that you pretend not to hear me because it’s uncomfortable to answer.

    It’s not like my plan to make you a magical girl staff member disappeared.

    Okay, I’ll keep this plan in my mind.

    If you tell me in advance, I’ll have time to prepare myself mentally. This kind of punishment has to be sudden to be meaningful.

    bang!

    Boom!

    Kwaaang!

    “What the heck?!”

    I screamed in surprise at the sudden loud noise, bit my lip and glared at Joy.

    “They’re like that, but they’re saying that the magic they make is like a fairy tale? Even if the magic they make sends people to heaven, it’s probably far from a fairy tale!?”

    “Maybe so?”

    “Maybe?! Are you thinking of sweeping away all the powerful people in Joy Kingdom!?”

    If you’re interested in the throne or power, just tell me! It won’t be hard to make you the queen!

    If you just support Renee right after she declares that she wants to claim the throne again, you can take the throne as queen right away!

    “Why do I do such a troublesome thing! I am more than worthy of the position of Duke’s Young Lady!”

    “Then why are they making such magic!”

    “I don’t know either!? Even though I always do that, the results are strangely good!”

    You say that kind of thing happens not once a day, but every day!? But everyone laughs it off because the results are good?! Does that make sense!?

    Are all the people in the Patran territory Buddhas? If they do that kind of thing right next to you every day, it seems like they’re going to start a fight and beg you to please stop it. How can you laugh and laugh when you hear them do that kind of thing?

    While I was seriously wondering if Erginus had developed some kind of hypnotic magic, I finally got up again as the ground shook with another explosion.

    “Guide those crazy guys to where they are. I need to see with my own eyes what they’re up to.”

    I ignored the facts that the tearful old man was spitting out and headed towards the back mountain with Joy.

    And then my suspicions almost became certain. The sight of the mountain, which had lost its greenery as if it had been bombed, was far from a fairy tale landscape no matter where I looked.

    It was more like something out of a war movie or a documentary about the dangers of weapons.

    From my perspective, who remembers what this place used to look like, I find it truly unbelievable that the author, the husband of the Fairy Queen, could create something like this.

    Fairies are meant to live in harmony with nature, so how can a human who should be called the Fairy King destroy the fairy land?

    “Does Runevia know this?”

    “Are you asking me?”

    “No. Joy. Not you, our kids.”

    If you think about it, it would be difficult for them to answer.

    The fairies who had suffered together with Frey’s obsession were sleeping soundly, nestled in my hair.

    The kid who brought me here just moved me half-asleep and then fell asleep again.

    But I feel bad about waking them up again, so let’s put off asking Runevia until later.

    If the problem gets worse, I think we’ll see the spectacle of a couple fighting.

    “Lucy Allen. I never thought I’d see you here.”

    Erginus, who appeared from Joy’s shadow, continued speaking while brushing the soot off his shoulder.

    “Didn’t you avoid anything related to magic because it gave you a headache?”

    “I wanted to do that too, but I couldn’t not come because you were making such a fuss. What the hell are you doing?”

    “There is only one thing I do. The development of magic.”

    “So what kind of magic are you developing to make it look like this? Are you planning to send people to heaven and paint them fairy tale scenes?”

    When I pointed to the scorched mountain and said something, Erginus turned his head and coughed in vain.

    “Let me make an excuse in advance. There are some parts that are different from the original intention.”

    “Explain it so I can understand.”

    “First of all, do you know what Joy asked for?”

    “You asked me to create a fairy tale-like landscape.”

    “That’s right. When I first received the request, I didn’t think much of it. There are countless ways to create a fairytale-like landscape. If I just asked the fairies, they could make something that looked good.”

    I know, it’s not hard at all for a wizard like Erginus to create a fantastic landscape.

    So I don’t understand it anymore. Why does this happen when you can make something just by making a few gestures?

    “So I was just trying to make something suitable, but then the magic god came and laughed at me.”

    “Huh?”

    “He was so angry at the thought that he was losing to him because he could only think like that. He lost several times and finally won once, so I decided to make him understand the situation because I didn’t like the way he was acting all arrogant.”

    I haven’t even finished hearing the whole story yet, but I already know what’s going on.

    That’s why it’s even scarier. What would happen if a wizard who was considered the greatest genius in the history of the continent went berserk trying to defeat the God of Magic and got into an accident?

    “It was a simple problem, but it was more difficult, but I eventually found a solution. What is the easiest way to create a fairy tale-like landscape? Isn’t it to go into a fairy tale?”

    “…Wait a minute. You. Then surely.”

    “Hoohoo. Yes. I created a magic that magically brings the world of fairy tales to life. Is that all!? I even made it so that all the characters in it can move like a scene from a fairy tale! I have to be perfect in this kind of liveliness to be able to crush that bastard’s nose! Where did this idea come from!”

    “Wait. Wait. Shut up for a second.”

    I silenced Erginus, who was excited like a pervert talking about my beauty, and slowly asked a question after wiping my face.

    “What is the fairy tale you created?”

    “I looked at several fairy tales for this magic, but this one was the most effective.”

    The fairy tale book Erginus took out from his arms was titled ‘The Giant’s Garden’.

    “This is a fairy tale with a moral message about a selfish giant realizing the importance of charity, but what caught my attention was the garden in the fairy tale. A garden managed by a giant sounds fun!”

    It sounds like fun. A social gathering in a garden built to the standards of a giant. Anyone would be amazed.

    But there is something like that.

    “What came out of the giant’s garden to make the mountain look like this?”

    “Who is the monster in the Giant’s Garden? It’s a giant.”

    “So the giant you created disobeyed your orders and attacked you!?”

    “We focused too much on the aspect of liveliness and gave it too much ego. We even created a safety device, but the specs of the giant we had in mind were too high, so that’s it. ”

    “You really are a fool.”

    I let out the curses that came to my mind and looked around while raising my head. As I listened to the story, I could see traces of violence on the scorched mountain.

    “But still, isn’t it strange? No matter how strong a giant is, he can’t be stronger than you.”

    “Can you destroy a work of art that you worked so hard to make so easily!”

    “You’re really, really a fucking idiot. You.”

    If I didn’t have a man’s sensibility, I would think all men are like this, but I understand both sides of the sensibility.

    So I get it. It’s not a gender issue, it’s that Erginus is a cripple.

    Sigh. I can’t even be bothered to talk to her. Should I just call Mom and tell her to do it?

    “…Wait a minute. Maybe Lucy Allen and Joy can be persuaded.”

    “What is it?”

    “The giant’s persuasion! The reason the giant didn’t listen to us was because we were adults who had lost our innocence! But you two are different! If you are not adults yet, the giant will listen to you!”

    Hey, you punk. Are you saying that because you saw my height? Are you saying that because I’m short, people will mistake me for a kid?

    As I was naturally feeling annoyed, I suddenly found something strange in what Erginus had said.

    Even if I say that because of my appearance, why Joy? No matter what, if you look at her appearance, Joy is far from being a child.

    “Erginus, why am I included?”

    Joy seemed to have the same question, tilting her head.

    “That’s because you have a pure mind like a child!”

    “Phew!”

    I couldn’t help but laugh at the words Erginus blurted out while he was half-conscious.

    Hehe. Heh. Our Joy is really innocent.

    “…Lucy.”

    “Pfft. Pfft. Pfft.”

    “Stop laughing.”

    “Al. Phew. Phew. Hahahaha!”

    “I told you not to laugh!”

    But what can I do about it being funny!

    “Lucy is a kid in both mind and body!”

    I stopped in my tracks at the words that Joy blurted out while her face was still hot. I wiped the smile off my lips and glared at Joy.

    “What did you mean by that?”

    “That’s exactly what I said.”

    “Ha. What nonsense are you talking about? There’s no one as mature as me?”

    “Phew. That’s an interesting story. Someone who was mistaken for a peer by children.”

    “That’s because their eyes were weird!”

    You’re even bringing up old things! How childish of you! That’s why people say you’re innocent!

    “Okay. Both of you, stop fighting and listen to what I have to say.”

    Erginus, who had come between us, coughed lightly and continued speaking.

    “There’s no conclusion to be reached even if the two fight here. So how about checking it out?”

    “What are you talking about?”

    “Confirmation?”

    “I told you. We lost our innocence, so the giants wouldn’t listen to our stories. So if we check how much the giants pay attention to your stories, we can make an accurate assessment.”

    Hmm. I feel like I’m being fooled by Erginus.

    “I like it. I’m confident!”

    If I back out here, I lose!

    “Okay! Let’s go check with the giant! Which of us is more like a kid!”

    No matter what, I’m better than Joy!
