Chapter 58: 58

Chapter 58 - Charlott's Request

“…… The Magician’s Guild? Yes, of course. I show my face a lot. I’m also the one who coordinates the requests from the Magician’s Guild.”

 

As the second receptionist for the Adventurers’ Guild, Charlotte seems to be the bridge between the Adventurers’ Guild and the Magician’s Guild.

Souya decided to ask once, including confirmation of his favor, if she had a great deal of involvement with the Magician’s Guild.

 

“I see. From here on, let’s keep our voices down. I don’t want others to know too much about it.”

 

Souya confirmed that there were no people around. It was still early in the morning, and fortunately there were no other adventurers in sight.

 

“……. In fact, I don’t have any connection with the Magician’s Guild. I can’t afford the huge membership fee, and I doubt I’ll ever get involved personally.”

 

After telling her that she had no connection to the Magician’s Guild, Souya looked at Charlotte.

Perhaps it was unexpected, but she seemed to be a little surprised, but Souya decided to continue his story. 

 

“So, to get to the point, I need a magician staff that the magician’s guild handles. It’s not the staff that I need, but the magic stone that comes with it. I’d appreciate it if you could get it for me when you show up. I’ll give the money to Charlotte-kun first, including the cost of labor.”

 

After listening to what Souya had to say, Charlotte’s expression changed like she was convinced.

It’s rare to find a magician who doesn’t belong to the Magician’s guild, and it’s generally not good. I wonder how she feels about a stray magician who has no connection to the magician’s guild, we’ll see in the coming conversation.

 

“…… Souya-sama, I knew you were a mole magician. It is true that with Souya-sama’s skills, there is no reason why he should not be a topic of conversation in the magician world.”

(T/N: I don’t know if it’s mole magician or rogue/stray magician.)

 

Charlotte closed her eyes, put her hands on her cheeks for a moment and looked like she was thinking, then opened her mouth, as if she had gathered her thoughts.

 

“…… Would you like to join the Magician’s Guild now? With Souya-sama’s ability, you don’t need to pay a membership fee. Rather than that, I’m sure the guild will want you if they know your skills. I can assure you that you will definitely get in with the special treatment.”　

 

It was a development that I had anticipated to some extent, but Charlotte had solicited me to join the Magicians Guild.

As she said, I can join the Magician’s guild with the special treatment. However, there were several reasons why Souya did not want to do so.

 

If you are a member of a Magician’s guild, you can’t keep all the magic you are learning in secret.

Souya had learned several lost magic techniques from the goddess Eris and from magic books he had unearthed from ancient ruins, which were not known to the Magician’s Guild. Some of them are likely to be designated as forbidden spells by the Magician’s Guild if they are made public.

Some of them, such as the wraith form that he used to interact with the ghost boy, Connie in the Thrail forest, are so dangerous that they are unlikely to be listed as new pages in the guild’s grimoire.

 

“You say you can assure me of special treatment. But, how good do you think I am at magic, Charlotte-kun?”

 

Souya had never reported his magical abilities to the Adventurer’s Guild.

It’s possible that she’s estimating him too high because he defeated the Silver Demon, but Souya asked Charlotte how much capable she thought he was.

 

“A Grand Master level. It’s just a guess on my part, though.”

“Oh …… why you would think so?”

 

The prediction of the Grand Master level was consistent with Souya’s current ability. It might be necessary to check if there was any basis for that prediction.

Souya’s expression became a little grim, as he pursued Charlotte.

 

“The request to rescue at the old fort that Souya-sama took. In fact, as a regular employee of the Adventurer’s Guild, I went there to investigate. I’m one of the investigators.”

Charlotte made an unexpected statement. If she was one of the staff members who rushed to the scene in a horse-drawn carriage after the battle with the Silver Demon, it is highly likely that she had already met Charlotte at that time.

 

“I was wearing a hood at that time. I think it’s natural that you didn’t notice. And the traces left behind by the Silver Demon. It’s the magic bombardment Penetrate that can only be used by Grand Master level magicians.”

“You don’t need to say more than that.”

 

Souya interrupted Charlotte’s tongue-smoothing words. She seemed to be a far more devious and shrewd opponent than he had thought.

If you think about it, she, who is also a thief with a gold-class adventurer’s certificate, cannot be an easy opponent. If her light and friendly demeanor is just a gesture to catch them off guard, then she’s quite amazing.

 

“I see. Charlotte-kun. It seems like it’s not the first time you’ve seen me …… You’re such a bad girl. No, it seems I was rash. “

“I’m sorry. I thought it would be funny to say Nice to meet you for the second time. But at that time, I was not able to greet you with an introduction. Souya-sama left by the time we got there. “

 

Charlotte bowed her head to Souya and apologized.

It is true that at that time, that we had not exchanged any greetings at that time. The guild staff was called in to take care of the aftermath, so Souya and the rest of the group, who were exhausted, returned to Ilstadt as soon as possible to take over.

 

“Did you tell anyone about your prediction of Grand Master level? “

“No, I did not. I don’t have to, and I don’t intend to. I thought that if you hadn’t announced it yourself, it might be because you wanted to hide your abilities, Souya-sama.”

 

Charlotte put a finger to her lips, smiled and denied Souya’s question.

 

“…… Charlotte-kun, you also have the face of a Thief. In fact, it’s not much of a problem if people talk about my magic skills, it just adds a little trouble. But whether or not you are worthy of my trust will be a part of our future relationship.”

“…… I’d be glad to have your trust there, though. It’s not like there’s any merit in displeasing Souya-sama, after all.”

 

Souya sighs as he feels like she’s been in control of the situation the whole time. Compared to Mia and Merylou, who are straightforward and honest, I have to be more cautious in my conversations. 

Souya put his hand on his forehead and made a thoughtful gesture, then he opened his mouth.

 

“I’ll trust you then …… And, I don’t want to join the Magician’s guild for now. So I’d like to ask you again if I can ask you to procure the magic stone. “

 

In response to Souya’s question, Charlotte put her hand over her mouth and smiled bewitchingly.

 

“I will procure it. There are only a handful of magicians in the Magician’s Guild who can reach the level of Grand Master level, after all …… I admire you very much. Um, in exchange, I’d like to ask you to do one thing.”

 

She continued in a flirtatious catnip voice.

 

“Could I please ask Souya, a Grand Master, to teach you magic? …… Then I will give you my personal magic stone. If you want, I can also work as a Thief ……. Um, if there’s anything I can do, please don’t hesitate to ask.”

 

Charlotte’s cheeks flushed as she stared at Souya with a glint in her eye. If I were to exaggerate, I would say that there is a heart symbol in her eyes. 

 

“…… Okay. I promise to help you out when I have time. It looks like someone has arrived. Excuse me.”

 

When Souya saw a group of adventurers enter the guild, he was forced to respond, and he made a quick promise and said goodbye to Charlotte.

Looking at her as she smiled and waved, it might have been my imagination, but I couldn’t help but feel as if she had timed the arrival of the other adventurers to force me to make a choice.

It seemed that I would no longer have to worry about the spread of my magical abilities, but I might have a new problem on my hands. Souya frowned as he thought back to the promise he had made.
