Black Summoner - Chapter 100
Chapter 100 Keepsake
Crest Forest / Elf Village
Early in the morning of the next day, we say goodbye to the Elven Village and leave for Perth. The Elder and the elves of the village asked me to stay more time, but I can’t afford to leave Perth’s mansion longer. I don’t want to make Ellie and Lucas, who are waiting for our return at the mansion, worry unnecessarily.
The elves were about to give me the money they collected from all the village, but I refused it. I can’t accept the money that will shake the finances of the village. Instead, I agreed to have some of the forest specialties. Like getting the fruit that Efil likes.
In front of the village gate, the Elder and Leonhard, who is still in el form, see us off.
“Leave the guarding of the village to Gown. And next time, use the transfer gate to come to Gown. You will be always welcomed.”
“Yes, at that time, please be in your true form.”
“Ha, ha, ha! Okay, I promise. Well, you’ll be busy for a while due to the S-class promotion.”
“Is there anything?”
“When a new S-class adventurer is born, there will be a festival all over the city, because it happens once every few years in the world.”
“I don’t want to be too big…”
“Well, don’t say that. Sometimes you can make a profit by selling your name. And the festival is one of the greatest pleasures of the people. When you are officially promoted, it will be a gorgeous thing to do. Last time… Oh, was it Sylvia a year ago? She was promoted to the top like Kelvin. Thinking that, the newcomers are excellent these days. By the way, Sylvia was celebrated grandly at Gown! But she was shy and didn’t attend!”
It’s just that she escaped… It was wonderful even if the main character wasn´t there.
“Efil san will go to Kelvin.”
“Thank you Elder, for yesterday.”
“No! It’s a small thank you that we can do. It’s us who bow our heads!”
The elder and elves hurriedly bow deeply to Efil, who greets him properly like a maid. On the contrary, if I am bowed by this many people, I will feel uncomfortable.
“Please come and visit us anytime, think of this village as your hometown. Everyone in the village is waiting for you. Oops, I forgot.”
The elder presents a small jewelry box to Efil.
“Efil san, please receive this.”
“Um, what is this?”
“It’s a keepsake of your mother, Rumil. Please bring it with you. Rumil will be happy too.”
“Mother’s keepsake …”
Efil receives the jewelry box, gently opens the lid, and looks inside.
“Is this a hair clip?”
“It was what she wore when Rumil was discovered, the only thing that was intact was this hair clip…”
“The decorated emeralds are very beautiful. I’m glad, Efil!”
Sara stares at the hair clip from Efil’s side. I also glanced from the side with an appraisal eye.
“Magic jewel hair clip”. The decoration is also wonderful, it is processed while taking advantage of the characteristics of the magical jewels. It is more effective than when it was a rough stone. It is definitely a product of a well-known craftsman. The hair ornament imitates a small flower, and emeralds are embedded in the part that hits the petals. It’s not flashy, but elegant and beautiful.
“Efil, why don’t you try fasten your hair? I’m sure it will look good.”
“Okay, are you sure?”
“This is Efil’s thing. We don’t have to say no.”
“Well then, my master, please …”
“I understand.”
I untie Efil’s hair that is tied up in the back, and then carefully re-bundle it with the magic jewel hair clip. At the mansion, I used to comb Efil’s hair when I woke up early in the morning. I somehow could tie her hair.
“How is it?”
Efil asks, looking back.
“Oh, after all … No, it looks great.”
“Yeah! Green shines on Efil’s blonde hair!”
“Yes, it’s very nice.”
As everyone says, it looked good as if the hair clip was made exclusively for Efil from the beginning. The Elder who knew Efil’s mother may be looking at her again.
Efil is happy, but I’m worried about her glancing at me. I have to say it too.
“Efil, it looks good on you.”
“Thank you. I am very happy.”
Two people are staring at each other. And a sweet mood begins to drift around …
“Yes, yes! Kel-nii and Efil-nee, that’s only after you get home.”
‘Pan, pan’ Rion claps her hands to restore the mood. Recently, I felt that my sister has become very strong. I’m happy, but I wanted you to wait a little longer if possible.
No, the elves behind the gate and Gown soldiers on the barrier are looking and paying attention. The correct answer is to withdraw early.
“Cough! Well then, Beast King, Elder, we’re sorry for this.”
“Um. continue to devote thyself.”
“Thank you very much. I wish you good luck on your trip.”
As the way here, It’s a spin the way back. Well, let’s skip it so that we can return by the end of today.
[My liege, Ich think Ich want to go out soon …]
[Gerard, you’re in-house arrest in my magic for a week.]
I haven’t forgotten the stupidity you did at the feast yesterday. I remember how hard it was for me and Efil after we got off the barrier. Gerard was the main reason why I was exposed to curiosity a while ago. Above all, your sins are heavy when you expose my lines, which are so embarrassing to hear in person. It is unforgivable.
[No, Ich doesn’t think it was this one’s fault.]
[Gerard-ji, I understand your feelings, but you can’t do that.]
[Mu, there is no way to stand if Rion tells me.]
[But I am also responsible for being there. I will refrain from second helping for a week.]
[[[[[Eh! ??]]]]]
Melfina said something outrageous, and everyone was upset.
[Me, Melfina, don’t get ahead of yourself!]
[No! No really, Mel’s body wouldn’t last a week!]
[Princess! You don’t have to go out with myself!]
[Mel-nee, you can’t do such a cruel thing…]
[I am troubled. I’m buying food based on Melfina’s consumption … If Melfina can’t eat it, Clo-chan will eat it, or I will give it to Claire-san…]
I tried to persuade her with all my might. She usually was excited when eating food. It’s uncomfortable to see Melfina’s appetite suppressed. It is a level to worry about illness.
[ I see, everyone …! I understand. I will do my best to eat!]
While having such a stupid conversation, we returned to Perth.
