Chapter 14: 14

“Urgh.”

A skinny middle-aged man shook his head violently as if in a tantrum. He then ran around the cave several times before banging his head against the wall.

No matter who sees it, that is the action of a person who is out of his mind.

The man, who had been moving strangely for a while, suddenly stopped in place. Then his blurry vision became clear again.

“I need a test subject for my experiment. More, a lot. No, no. It would be nice to have just one proper test subject.”

There was little to use as a test subject around here. That’s why it’s called a small town.

It’s safe here because there’s no need to be afraid of being caught by others, but the quality of the test subject fell instead.

“No, no, no. I can’t do that.”

Then it becomes more difficult to study black magic. I have to summon demons as soon as possible and get stronger.

“Shall I move?”

The man muttered and looked around the cave. In the cave with a gloomy atmosphere, there was a strong smell of blood.

“Okay, I’ll move.”

After all, I’m running out of test subjects that can be used in this area.

“Then where should I go?”

The man thoughtfully pointed his finger into the air. And as if he had made up his mind, he looked in one direction.

“Yeah, that way. Looks like it will be fun there.”

His finger pointed down the road that Adele had taken in the carriage with Ronschka and Lucas in the past.

One two three four…

Adele, who was carefully counting the silver coins, swept them all into her pocket with a determined face. The day is soon approaching.

Ronschka’s birthday.

But Ronschka has never been congratulated on his birthday. Because Adele found that day terrible.

It must have been a painful day for him because his mother had such thoughts.

‘I want to change that thought.’

For that reason, she had also looked up references before. She read a children’s book called “Baby Bear’s Birthday Party” all the way through. Now she can tell the whole story without reading.

Ronschka didn’t seem to understand yet why the baby bear was so happy to eat the cake on its birthday, but he obediently listened.

‘It’s all my fault.’

Her chest ached as if it was being squeezed.

Still, this birthday party was going to be pretty well prepared with Madeleine’s help.

Madeleine said that she would bake the cake herself, and Kish and Leon would help decorate it. Adele herself decided to cook other dishes. It would probably be a dish that relied a lot on the memory of her past life, but it would be worth eating.

‘And a gift.’

More importantly, I have to buy a gift.

Ronschka has never received anything from his mother. Meaning, he has no belongings of his own.

Ronschka was nonchalant about it, but Adele’s heart ached at the thought.

“Then what should I buy for him?”

As she was fumbling in her pocket, there was a clatter of metal clashing.

A meaningful gift that he can carry around…

After thinking about it for a long time, Adele decided to have a look for herself and judge it later.

Yes. Today is Adele’s first outing since coming to the mansion.

“I want to go too!”

Just before getting into the rented carriage, Ronschka rushed over.

Oops, I tried to buy a gift secretly, but Madeleine seemed to fail to hold him back.

“I’m just going to the market for a while.”

“I-I still want to go,” said Ronschka excitedly.

He has greatly improved in speaking, but when he is emotionally excited his stutter often sets in.

“I-I want to go too!”

His eyes were getting wet with anxiety.

Adele thought it was okay since they were together in the mansion for quite some time, but it seemed he was still uneasy being separated from his mother.

“Mom will be back soon.”

“B-but still!”

“Okay. You can come with me. Instead, never leave my side, understand?”

“Yes!”

Ronschka smiled brightly at his mother’s decision.

At that moment, Adele saw a familiar blond boy in the distance. It’s Leon.

Leon, who rushed in, asked, “Can I go too?”

“There’s no problem if you come with us too.”

Still, Adele is glad she’s not alone.

Worried that Adele might get lost in the market she first went to, Lucas attached an attendant.

The attendant named Jin is tall and has an ordinary face. She hasn’t seen him many times, but he is quite a trustworthy person.

“By the way, did you get permission from your teacher?”

“Of course! He said to be careful. I’ve been to the market many times, though,” replied Leon excitedly.

So four- no, five, including the coachman, headed for the market.

 

After driving for a while through the winding and narrow road, a town came into view in the distance. After passing through the gate, it was quick to find the market.

Seeing the market cleaner than expected, Adele shed admiration involuntarily.

She had already talked to Jin to distract Ronschka when she found an item suitable for a gift.

They arrived in front of a candy shop with colorful candies.

Ronschka showed a lot of interest in candy. So she bought him some. The way he eat was so cute because he looked like a squirrel.

Next is the clothing store. Lucas always bought clothes for him, so she didn’t feel the need.

It is unfortunate that there is not enough money to buy a weapon or tools an Elementalist needs, but she promised she would definitely buy one next time.

Going around and looking at the stores one by one like that was tiring, but it made her feel better. Especially when Ronschka laughed, a smile spread on Adele’s lips as well.

Then, suddenly, a store caught her eye. The store with the old sign seems to be a kind of stationery store.

As she carefully looked at the display, there was one pen holder that caught her eye. It was an elegant-looking pen holder made of a mixture of wood and metal.

‘Is it expensive?’

Adele glanced at the price tag.

‘Oh, it’s a price I can buy.’

If it’s a pen holder, you can use it while studying and take it with you wherever you go.

Adele pondered, then glanced back. Quick-witted Jin was good at catching the children’s attention.

“Please give me this.”

Adele spoke to the seller in a small, quick voice. However, the old salesman was serving quite a long time, contrary to Adele’s thoughts.

He walked slowly, picked up the pen holder, and turned it around. He then nodded his head and went back inside in slow steps. Oh, he looks like he’s about to wrap it up.

Ronschka and Leon were eating snacks excitedly.

‘How cute.’

“Here it is.”

Adele turned around with a smile to accept the wrapped pen holder from the seller.

Now, let’s join the children naturally and go back to the mansion.

The first outing seems to have ended safely. That’s a relief.

The moment she stepped forward with that thought in mind, she saw a black shadow behind the children. She frowned and took a closer look, apparently it was a man wearing an old robe.

Somehow she had an ominous feeling. At the same time as Adele ran over in a hurry, Jin shouted loudly.

“Who are you?!”

Then, her view was blocked by a sudden small explosion. It was scary to be blind, but she couldn’t lose the children like this.

Adele desperately dashed past Jin, who was falling, to reach the man in the robe. In front of him were children who seemed to have passed out.

“Go away!”

Adele slammed into the man in a robe. And while the man lost his balance, he tried to catch the children, but without success.

An immediate counterattack came and Adele was thrown to the ground. And when she managed to get herself up again, no one was there.

‘Magic? However, the magic of this era is strictly controlled… no way.’

Adele’s face went white.

‘A wizard.’

There was nothing else that came to mind.

‘Calm down. Calm down, Adele.’

Adele raised her hand and slapped herself on the cheek. The burning pain seemed to clear her mind a little more.

‘First, think about what you can do now.’

In the novel, the abduction took place in the mountains. But this is a city. Unlike in the mountains, there will be many people to help. For example, the police or guards.

Adele gritted her teeth and approached Jin.

Fortunately, his wound did not appear to be deep.

After giving money to a passer-by and asking to take care of Jin, Adele ran to the guards in a hurry.
