Maou Reijou no Kyouiku Gakari - Chapter 35: Delivery

Delivery

“All right, then, rest up for the rest of the day.”

I walked Femu to the front of her personal room and said so.

“But…”

“Just rest for a while. No classes from noon onwards today.”

I let Femu, who still looked hesitant, into the room halfway, as if I were pushing her in.

It was magic of that scale. It must have taken a considerable toll on her body and mind.

For the future, I want her to rest well for now.

“Now…”

Having succeeded in persuading Femu for the time being, I walked down the corridor with a renewed determination.

I told her to leave it to me, but the reality was that it’s not that simple.

It was the first time for me to face an individual who wielded magic on that scale, and to teach her to control it.

Naturally, the common sense of magic instruction that I have used up to this point would not apply.

But there was no time to whine.

If I don’t do it, there is no future for me or her.

“Rosé, there you are.”

Walking through the mansion, I discovered the maid I was looking for.

“Frey-sama, did you find Femu-sama?”

“I found her, and she’s resting in her room. You can rest easy now.”

“I understand. I will be at ease.”

The exchange was a bit stilted, but a slight tinge of relief came over Rosé’s face.

Then, I continued, getting down to business.

“Rosé, I have a few things I need you to get for me.”

“Yes, I am at your service.”

I ordered the necessary items one after another for Rosé, who replied as if it were a matter of course.

I never thought that the exchange, which I thought was only half-joking at the time, would come to fruition in this way.

“—I need things like I described, can you get them for me?”

“Yes, it will take a few days, but it is possible.”

“Then I’ll leave it to you. But as soon as possible, please.”

“I will. As soon as I receive it, I will bring it to your room.”

In a sense, the process that seemed the most difficult was completed with just that one exchange.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

“Hey, Frey ….Is Femu ok?”

A few days after that day, San spoke those words during a class with one of the five sisters missing.

Because of the vanished mountain, I told the four of them everything that had happened, thinking that it would be impossible to keep it hidden.

I know they are right to be worried about their sister not being here, but I’ve decided to have Femu take a break from class until I’m ready and give her a good rest, both physically and mentally.

“Femu will be fine. I’ll take care of everything, and you study properly on your own.”

“Uheee…”

San stuck out her tongue and slumped to the desk.

“Are you okay sensei…?”

Now Fia asked worriedly.

“Me? I’m doing even better.”

“But you have very large dark circles under your eyes…”

“Hmm? Is that so?”

“Yes…”

I rubbed my eyes lightly.

No, there is no way I can get it off by rubbing.

I didn’t care about it at all, but if they are so worried about it, it must be a big dark spot.

It is true that since that day, in addition to morning and afternoon training and classes, I have had more work to do at night, so I have hardly slept at all.

“Anyway, there is no need to worry. Just relax and enjoy like you are on a big boat.”

This level of sleep deprivation is nothing compared to my training days.

At that time, there were more times when I found myself unconscious than sleeping.

I was pushing myself too hard.

“San, Fia. We just have to trust him and wait quietly. Okay?”

Isuna told them in a calm tone of voice.

I’m still getting used to the change, but it’s most reassuring to know that they trust me to take care of there sister.

At the same time that they slowly shook their heads in response to Isuna’s words, the entrance door was opened and Rosé walked into the classroom.

“Excuse me for interrupting class.”

“What’s up?”

“I have just received the items requested by you, Frey-sama and wanted to inform you of their arrival.”

“All of it?”

“Yes, I made sure everything was in order.”

While Rosé nonchalantly said this without changing her expression, my heart was racing like a child with a toy in front of him.

“All right! Well then, I know it’s a little early today, but class is over! Tomorrow is your day off, but make sure you’ve done your prep! That’s all!”

I told the four of them and immediately went to my room.

As soon as I opened the door to my room, I saw a pile of goods in front of me.

“Wow!”

I held them in my hands and checked them out with admiration.

Griffin feathers.

Arachno mucus.

Salamander oil.

The beak of a cockatrice.

The scales of a basilisk.

Mithril steel and selenite.

And so on… The materials for making various kinds of magical tools as ordered were definitely available.

And a small vial placed carefully on the desk.

I took it in my hand and checked the contents through the translucent container.

Just by holding it, I could sense its extraordinary magical power.

It is unmistakably the bone marrow fluid of a real old dragon.

I never thought that I would have the opportunity to have such an item in my life.

If I were to prepare them in the human world, they would cost the size of a national budget.

Even royalty and the nobility would not spend this much on the education of just one person.

“I’ll be grateful to use everything I can get my hands on.”

Talking to myself, I set about making the magical tools needed for Femu.
