Chapter 114: 114

 Chapter 114 - Familiar's intentions

After rejecting the pair of what appeared to be scouts from the Royal Capital who came to the plaza, Souya decided to discuss the future with Shamil.

He was able to have a telepathic conversation with his familiar if he got close enough, but the sensation of his voice reverberating in his brain was not pleasant, and it would cause a disturbance and be unclear, and also consume a small amount of magic power.

 

“Master. There is a great deal of concern about the Red Horn, but now that you are safely back in Ilstadt, I’d like to offer my opinion as a familiar. Some of it may be harsh, but please forgive me.”

“Harsh? …… Did I make a mistake or something?”

 

Although I reflexively asked this question, I was not entirely free of any fault that I could think of. However, the Cait Sith, whom I have known for less than a week, should only be able to tell what is going on on the outside.

Souya, though defensive, decided to ask his opinion.

 

“The first thing to consider is that the master, who has such a brilliant track record that it has become a hero’s tale, is without a home. I thought you would have at least one safe place to live. I am not sure if it is advisable to have a discussion in a plaza ……I don’t mean to be rude, but what have you been doing during this 20-year gap?”

 

Souya did not hide his reluctance in response to Shamil’s blunt question, as if he were conducting a pressure interview.

Although he had once told Louise a fictional story about the details of Souya’s background, he had never told anyone the truth. It was an outlandish story of a transfer to another world, and even if he had informed her, it was unlikely that she would have believed him wholeheartedly.

And even those few who knew that he was the Silver Rei had no way to trace the 20-year gap. The only one who knew everything was Eris, the goddess who had summoned him.

 

“I can’t tell you about it, and I don’t intend to tell anyone …… I have not been playing around for twenty years, but there is no doubt that I have not made my mark on the world, nor have I made my fortune.”

“It’s not about self-improvement or that thing. I think the current Master is strong, but I don’t feel the vulgarness of the Silver Rei I hear about.”

 

An even more scathing opinion. This Cait Sith may be surprisingly meddlesome. It was obvious that one would have to be a hardworking and caring person to work with a wise man holed up in the mountains, but it was surprising to see this side of him.

 

“Then, it’s fine to say that I was playing around. It is true that I was in a lukewarm place to escape the hardships of life.”

 

Souya confessed only that he had been indulging in moderate work and living.

 

“But even if I got a house, who would take care of it? I can’t afford to hire servants …… Shamil, will you do it for me?”

“I have been taking care of the hermit of mount Iskar for many years. I will take care of everything, starting with shopping, cooking, cleaning, laundry, and whatever else you order me to do …… Isn’t that the original purpose of having a familiar for a magician?”

 

When Shamil pointed out the original role of the familiar, Souya agreed with what he was told. The tailcoat that Shamil wears when he is in human form seemed to suggest that he had a role as a butler.

 

“That is true, but …… You want me to buy a house?”

“I promise you that I will be able to fulfill my true potential as a familiar …… if your heart wasn’t moved by the scout from the Royal Capital earlier.”

“That won’t happen.”

 

Souya replied immediately, remembering the 200 white gold coins, and Shamil looked relieved.

“…… And, I heard that you have been sleeping alone, away from your friends. You are not keeping your distance from Miss Mia and the others, are you?”

 

Apparently, while Souya was sleeping, he was in contact with Mia and Merylou. Souya had a bad feeling about this, but decided to listen anyway without interrupting Shamil.

 

“Why is it that you are not living with Miss Mia?”

“She shares a bed with Merylou-kun. Based on safety, there is nothing to worry about.”

“…… I am afraid that one day you will disappear from everyone’s sight, just like that Silver Rei …… This much is clear. Those of us left behind will be hurt.”

 

Souya remained silent and listened.

At the same time, he sensed a directionality in Shamil’s opinion.

 

“Shamil. You’re really trying to tie me down to the Ilstadt …… By the way, it seems that Emily-kun likes you, but I wonder if something happened from that point on?”

 

Souya kept his distance from Emily, a Lingen survivor girl. He was concerned about her, but he could not think of any witty words to say to her, and the only people who were able to interact with Emily on the way home were Louise, who had become her guardian, and Shamil, whom she missed.

It is a shameful thing, but I must say that Shamil, the Cait Sith, was better at dealing with her. At the same time that this familiar was encouraging, it was a case that made me feel inadequate.

 

“Yes, that’s why I was at Miss Louise’s house last night with Emily.”

“I see. How did she seem?”

 

I have gotten to know Emily well enough to call her Emily. I was envious of the fact that they were able to communicate with each other to some extent, but I am convinced that I am too old to be able to do the same.

 

“I got the impression that Master was quite fond of Miss Louise …… What are you going to do even though you have someone like Miss Mia?”

“Shamil.”

 

Souya interrupted Shamil.

 

“…… what I want to ask you is about Emily-kun, though.”

“I’m sorry …… I’m still not sure what to say about Emily yet. To be honest, I, a Cait Sith, am not entirely capable of understanding the human heart.” 

“It’s something we can’t fully understand, even among ourselves …… If Shamil wants to do so, I hope you can continue to be friends.”

 

After a beat, Soiya continues.

 

“I’ll take what you said positively. At least you can rest assured that I won’t suddenly vanish like the Silver Rei.”
