Black Iron Magician

Chapter 375 Reconciliation

Satella was saved by the low boiling point of Weere’s laughter and managed to be forgiven for the kidnapping. Nevertheless, no matter how much she apologized, it doesn’t change the fact that she couldn’t use her teleportation magic until the same time tomorrow. To begin with, even though Satella is an acquaintance, she’s someone who belonged to the Great Eight Demons. So, Weerel decided not to pursue this matter since she didn’t want to make things worse, and she decided to stay on the Dragon God’s Island until tomorrow.

「I’m really sorry, Wee-chan.」

After erasing her tail, Satella bowed her head again. She seems to care about Weerel so much that she was desperate not to be hated by her.

「You have already apologized…. You don’t have to apologize anymore….」

「But you were in the middle of an important dinner party, right? I’m so sorry that it turned into just dinner at this ordinary household.」

‘It’s not an ordinary household,’ Chinatsu retorted in her mind.

「Ah, no…. Even though it was a dinner party… it was more of a family affair with the Batten Family…. Besides, I honestly prefer Satella’s food….」

「W-Wee-chan!」

Satella hugged Weerel’s whole body. Weerel, who’s smaller than Haruna, seems to stimulate Satella’s motherhood very much.

「Um, by the way, is it going to be okay over there? Even if it was a family dinner party, they would be confused if Wee suddenly disappeared, right?」

「Ah, you’re right. I think Therese-san will be worried too. Even if Wee-chan forgives it, it’s a serious matter if the Mage Prime Minister goes missing.」

「That’s okay…. If it’s Satella-san, I’m sure she placed a message card over there when I got teleported….」

「A message card?」

「Even I won’t invite someone without notice~. When I was teleporting her, I sent a message card that says, 『I’ll borrow her for a day!』」

「…… Is that really okay?」

Chinatsu imagined a message card that a phantom thief placed on the crime scene. Well, it’s not a wrong image.

「Along with the modest writing, there’s Satella-san’s autograph…. Besides, I’m sure Therese-san will guess the situation from the message card and do something…. If I can go back tomorrow without my grandpa knowing about it, I think it won’t become a serious matter…. Also, I have a surplus of paid holiday, so I will arrange it as one when I return….」

「I see~. You’re right, Therese-san probably will do something about it!」

「Well, that’s right…. Wee, would you mind taking the apology gift with you when you go back tomorrow?」

「Ah, then I will prepare it. I will do my best to prepare something good!」

「Please do it in moderation…. If Satella-san really gets serious… she would prepare an outrageous item….」

By the way, the medicine that Chinatsu took earlier is one of the items that have an outrageous market price. It’s an item made by boiling the horns and the scales that have fallen out from the water dragon, which is a symbol of longevity, and must be processed by capable people (dragons who can turn into human) for three days and three nights, but only a very small amount could be produced. It’s rumored that it will not only ward off all kinds of harm to the human body, but also extends one’s life span.

「By the way, Wee-chan, can you still eat? You were a light eater, weren’t you?」

「I can…. After all, I just started eating over there…. Ah… if possible, I want a hamburger steak….」

「Okay, I will do my best to make it!」

Thus, Weerel joined the dinner―― and after a while, the dinner is over. The mountain of food had disappeared completely, and Sattella went to the kitchen to wash the dishes. Haruna and Chinatsu tried to help, but they were turned away and told to relax because they are guests. And then, it’s time to relax, and the girls decided to talk about each other’s recent activities.

「Hee, Therese-san is leading the Four Heavenly King of the Sea Demons?」

「Yes…. She shows no restraint, but she’s very considerate…. She’s building a good relationship by distributing food…. At first, the locals were suspicious of the monsters… but they completely trust them now…. As someone involved in politics… I’m grateful for the existence of Therese-san…. Rather than that, I was surprised by Haruna-san and Chinatsu-san…. In this short period of time, you met the Great Eight Demons…. Moreover, you even had a match….」

「Is it really that amazing?」

「It’s a path that normal people avoid…」

「Ara ara? Wee-chan, when you were little, you were traveling alone to have a match against my husband, right?」

「S-Satella-san…. I-I was very young back then….」

Satella, who appeared from the kitchen, begins to talk about the past while evading Weerel, who’s trying to stop her in panic. When she was little, Weerel sneaked away from home without telling Joseph and embarked on a journey to train herself.

‘Well, she’s only a young child, so she will come back soon after visiting the neighborhood’, ‘the magic talent she inherited from her grandfather is so great that she can even repel bad guys by herself’, her parents were optimistic and they thought so at first. However, it was several months later that Weerel returned home. It was the beginning of the first grandpa crisis, the Joseph Shock.

「「The Joseph Shock…!」」

The first thing her parents didn’t expect was that Weerel was unexpectedly active. And the second thing, which was considered fatal, was that Weerel had received a huge amount of pocket money from her grandfather, Joseph. The pocket money, which was too much for a little girl to have, saved Weerel from the trouble of raising money for her journey, and it allowed her to expand her range of activities. With money, the ability to take action, and power, even a little girl can do almost anything.

Weerel traveled by connecting carriages and ships across her favorite sea from the continent of Jiba to the continent of Zen. There were times she was attacked by monsters and bandits, but she was already good at using magic at that time. Thus, she visited the Dragon God’s Island, which is famous for its beautiful sea, without any difficulties.

「At that time, I was working part-time as a waitress at a restaurant. On my way home from work, I found Wee-chan, who kept playing at the beach even at night. I talked to her since I thought she was a lost child, but I was wrong. Then, I guessed that she had some circumstances, so took her home―― cough, I mean, I put her under my protection.」

「You’re talking as if you did a good job, but… that’s what people call kidnapping….」

「I just wanted to give you a delicious meal and a warm place to sleep!」

Well, Weerel was taken away by Satella, but after she enjoyed the island for some time, she was sent back to her family’s mansion in Adelheit by teleportation magic. By the way, the moment Weerel returned home by the teleportation magic, Joseph’s emotions exploded and he collapsed. It was the second Joseph Shock.

「「The second Joseph Shock…!」」

「Setting Satella-san aside… since you two are here… does it mean that you are going to take the trial of the Great Eight Demons Rimudo…?」

「Ah, yep! Shishō said that we are going to do it tomorrow.」

「I see…. It seems that you have become even stronger… so maybe it’s possible for you…」

Probably thinking about the content of the trial, Weerel closed her eyes and nodded many times.

「Wee, could it be that you know what the trial is?」

「Yes…. After all, I tried it the day after Satella-san invited me to her house…」
