After greeting me, Frea-san's subordinate used what seemed like Space-Time Magic to conjure a large box. This must be the item that Frea-san had requested.

[Big Sis, here it is.]

[Ahh, it must have been rough, good work. I'll take it here.]

Frea-san easily lifted the huge box, which was several meters tall, as if it were just a small one. The box then emitted a light and disappeared. It didn’t seem like it was stored in a magic box, so she likely teleported it somewhere else.

After that, she conjured a large barrel-like object and placed it in front of her subordinate.

[Share this with the others.]

[Thank you, Big Sis! I'll gladly take it! Well then, I'll be leaving now!]

[Yeah, let the others know I appreciate their efforts.]

[Understood!]

After replying to Frea-san and giving me a quick nod, the subordinate’s body glowed and transformed into a massive dragon. She stored the barrel using Space-Time Magic and flew off.

[Sorry for taking up your time, my comrade.]

[No, don't worry about it.]

[I had asked my subordinates, who are skilled at crafting, to make something for me. I thought it would take them a bit longer, but it seems they hurried to complete it.]

[That big box from earlier, right? Is it some kind of training equipment?]

[You're not entirely wrong, but it’s a bit different from what you might imagine. If you're interested, would you like to see it? It’s stored in a room we'll pass by on the way to my private quarters.]

[I don't really understand what you mean, but if Frea-san is okay with it, I’d love to see it.]

Curious about the box's contents, I nodded and followed Frea-san as we moved along. We walked through a fairly spacious hallway for a while until we reached a large set of double doors, where Frea-san stopped. It seemed this was the room, and the doors looked quite heavy and solid.

[Those are quite the impressive doors.]

[They're nothing special. Eingana suggested that the room should be spacious, so I prepared a larger room. Well, let’s go inside.]

[Yes…… O- Ohh…… This is…… I see, it's a room for practicing music.]

As soon as I stepped into the room, I understood what Frea-san had meant earlier. Inside, there were multiple guitars and magic tools for performing music, along with a stage-like platform.

I suddenly recalled the band Frea-san, Eingana-san, and Fafnir-san had formed, which I had seen in the Hydra Kingdom.

In other words, this room was for the band’s music practice, and the box from earlier was probably related to that. That's why, in a way, it was indeed used for training, just not the kind of training I had in mind.

[Come to think of it, I remember you performed live in Hydra Kingdom…… Wasn't your band called Dragon Soul?]

[Unn? Were you there? To think I didn't notice my comrade's presence…… I still have much to learn.]

[……Ahh~~ No, things were a bit complicated back then…… A- Anyhow, the contents of that box are for your band activities, right?]

I did see Frea-san live performance in the Hydra Kingdom, but it was when I was traveling with Shiro-san…… in other words, we were watching from a different dimension, so it’s only natural that Frea-san didn’t notice me. That said, explaining all of that would take too long, so I decided to steer the conversation back to the topic at hand.

[Yeah, it's a magic tool designed to adjust sound reverberation. I place it in all corners of the room. Once I decide to take something up, regardless of the reason, I go all out———– that's my way. I don't intend to hold back when it comes to playing music either…… I plan to train with everything I've got, so I can reach even greater heights.]

[Hahaha, I see, that's just like Frea-san. However, you were really cool playing the guitar. I've got no clue how to play instruments, but watching you made me want to give it a try.]

[Fufu, I see. Well, if you ever feel like it, don’t hesitate to let me know. I can teach you enough to play for fun, and it would be enjoyable to perform together with my comrade.]

[That sounds great. I’ll definitely take you up on that if I get the chance.]

Well, to be honest, back in high school, I kinda yearned to play the guitar. However, getting into it seemed tough———— I had to buy a guitar and learn the chords, which felt like a big hurdle, so I never actually took the plunge into the hobby.

……However, now that I know there are guitars in this world too, and since I have both the money and time, maybe I really should give it a shot.


<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [Whoa, seems like a weird flag just got triggered.]

? ? ? : [But you know, Kaito-san is actually pretty suited for music. He has a good ear, and with his Sympathy Magic, he could even infuse emotions into sounds. If he really puts his mind to it, I think he could be pretty amazing……]
