----Clang!! A pleasant, clear sound echoed through the nighttime garden. "Phew. Well, this should be enough for today." After destroying the 10th training dummy of the day, I let out a breath and wiped the sweat from my forehead. When I arrived, there were still guards and such around, but now there was no one but me. I came here a little after the 9 o'clock end-of-work bell rang, and it's probably been about 2 hours, so it must be past 11 now. Normally I'd stay for another hour or so,…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
"Wow. I'd heard about it, but it really is a very spacious room." Being the number one hotel in this town, the room was quite luxurious and magnificent. That said, it wasn't so dazzling that one couldn't relax. It was fully equipped with things to maximize relaxation, such as fluffy feather sofas, magical tools with heating and cooling functions, adjustable lighting, and so on. From the open terrace, one could overlook the vast and refreshing white sand beach. Also, facing east, one could…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
After filling our stomachs, we found ourselves at a certain jewelry store. Since Isan is located in the coastal area, internationally diverse decorative items gather here. For that reason, stores like this tend to be quite numerous. "Arcs, look at this. Isn't this necklace absolutely wonderful?" What Eleanore pointed to was a necklace adorned with a purple gemstone in the center. It was a design that conveyed elegance within its splendor. "It certainly is lovely. I think it would suit you well,…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
A clear blue sky without a single cloud. The blazing sun reigned supreme, pouring its light down upon the earth, and the surface of the sea receiving it sparkled sparsely like a starry sky. The season was summer. An appropriate landscape spread out before us. "Arcs, look! The sea, there's such a beautiful sea!" "There was no sea in Egenhardt or around the academy. It certainly is very beautiful." Eleanore gazed at the view beyond the train window with sparkling eyes. While finding it…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
Having gotten new clothes, Eleanore and I were strolling through town again. The main street was lined with stalls, all bustling with activity. Amidst it all, drawn by a particularly prominent savory smell, we were standing in line at a grilled meat skewer stall. "Here ya go, two meat skewers!" "Thank you very much." I handed payment to the stall owner who showed a hearty smile, and received the skewers so juicy that meat juices were dripping from them. The appearance and smell assured me…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
Several weeks had passed since then. "Please look, Arcs-sama. I made flowers with magic." "Arcs-sama, would you like some tea sweets?" "Fufu, the stars are beautiful, aren't they, Arcs-sama." Arcs-sama, Arcs-sama, Arcs-sama. Eleanore has grown quite attached to me. Though her expressions are still limited, she shows far more emotion compared to our first meeting. It's a bit surprising that she actively invites me to play, but well, it makes me happy too. After all, since…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
After the skirmish in the back alley ended, I returned to the shop carrying the recovered jewelry. The shoplifter and their companions had picked a fight so enthusiastically, but they quickly became docile once I showed them a bit of pain. By handing them over to the city guard, this shouldn't lead to any more trouble. Well then, with that said, the matter is settled... or so it should be. "Thank you so very much!!" Shown a bow as perpendicular as a chicken wing, I was bewildered. For…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
"Hey, Arcs? Who was that woman you were talking to today?" "No, that was..." "I don't want to hear any excuses!!!" Black magical power resembling tentacles that had wrapped around me surged forth. For an ordinary person, this level would cause them to lose consciousness in an instant, but for me it was merely like being bitten by a mosquito. But even so... you know. She's probably doing this unconsciously, but I think she's being a bit harsh. How did it come to this? I thought I had…- 94.5 K • Ongoing
