Chapter 36
Since Louis Sauver had never avoided me even once before, I was extremely flustered.
“What’s the reason? Is he sick somewhere?”
“That’s not it, but… he says he’s busy…”
I had no idea what he could be so busy doing, but since that’s what he said, I decided to go back.
However.
“I’m sorry, but the young lady said she won’t be receiving guests today.”
The next day too.
“The young lady isn’t here today. I apologize.”
And the day after that as well.
Louis Sauver wouldn’t meet with me.
At this point, it was starting to seem strange.
I was worried he might be secretly plotting something weird again.
It seemed like he was deliberately avoiding me.
What on earth was Louis Sauver thinking when he entered the swordsmanship tournament, and what happened to our goal of me preventing the world’s destruction and Louis Sauver returning to South Korea?
I had so many things I wanted to say…
In the carriage on the way home, I opened the system window.
[33% until world destruction]
Since the world destruction gauge remained the same, it didn’t seem like Louis Sauver was doing anything strange.
But an inexplicable uneasiness continued to linger in a corner of my heart.
* * *
Starting the very next day, I began magic lessons with Shamal.
To avoid drawing attention from other people as much as possible, we decided to have lessons every dawn.
Shamal was a good teacher.
According to the original work’s description, while the Magic Tower master was a genius, Shamal was closer to a hardworking ordinary person.
Being the hardworking type, he also had a talent for teaching others.
Shamal explained the flow of magical power in a way that was easy for me to understand.
Only after hearing that explanation did I realize that what I had felt flowing inside my body whenever I reacted to dark magic was actually magical power.
“Magical power normally circulates through your body like blood. Then when you gather it in one place to use magic, the magic activates.”
From the principles of magic.
“Try thinking about gathering magical power at your fingertips. If you can’t imagine it well, you can think about when blood circulation is blocked.”
To how to operate magical power.
Shamal explained everything step by step for me, a beginner.
While learning various magics, I asked him to teach me the magic I most wanted to learn.
Teleportation!
You have no idea how difficult it was when I went to the snowy mountains last time.
If I had known how to teleport, I wouldn’t have suffered looking for the fountain pen and could have returned easily.
Most importantly, if I knew how to teleport, wouldn’t it be convenient for saving money and running away?
However.
“Teleportation? That’s not possible yet… It’s difficult magic, so it’s still too early.”
It was like a bolt from the blue.
“Ah, really…? I really wanted to do teleportation, but it can’t be helped… I understand, Shamal… Let’s learn other magic first…”
When I expressed my disappointment with my whole body, Shamal reluctantly said let’s try giving it a shot.
“The most important thing about teleportation magic is specifying accurate coordinates. If you mess up and your body gets stuck in something like a tree, your body could be split in half…”
At Shamal’s scary warning, I thought about learning it later, but I still decided to try being brave once.
“I’ll still try it once.”
I’ll try it once and if it doesn’t seem to work, I’ll give up then.
Shamal nodded and told me in detail about the principles of teleportation, methods for teleporting, and so on.
He even gave cute analogies suited to my level, knowing nothing about magic.
“Rene, what did you want most when you were young?”
“What I wanted most?”
There were countless things I had wanted. Though I couldn’t have even one due to our poor circumstances.
Later, I gave up knowing that no matter how much I wished, I couldn’t have them.
But since Rene had been a wealthy noble from birth, I shouldn’t say that.
“Well, I had everything I wanted.”
Then Shamal made a “hmm” sound, and soon as if he thought of something good, he said “ah” and asked.
“Then is there something you want to eat now?”
“Um, chocolate cake!”
I don’t know why, but Shamal smiled at my words about wanting to eat chocolate cake.
“Then like that feeling of wanting to eat that, try desperately picturing the place you want to teleport to in your mind.”
Hmm, where should I go. Should I try going to Kaisis who’s nearby?
I was earnestly picturing Kaisis’s room in my mind.
“Huh?”
Suddenly I teleported to the stable.
As I was tilting my head in confusion, Shamal teleported to the stable and followed me.
“Rene, there you were. I didn’t know where you went so I had trouble finding you.”
Then he carefully took my hand and teleported me back to my bedroom, saying.
“It’s probably because your magical power control is still immature. Let’s try again.”
Encouraged by Shamal’s words, I earnestly practiced teleportation.
Each time, I randomly teleported to places like the middle of the bathroom, on top of the tiger-shaped statue in the lobby, under the dining room table.
It was fortunate enough that my body didn’t get stuck somewhere.
When I returned to my bedroom dejectedly, Shamal told me it was important to specify coordinates more precisely in my head.
“Specify precisely…”
I stared intently at the floor in front of me while earnestly muttering that I would move there.
And when I operated my magical power again, this time…
“Huh?”
I teleported to Louis Sauver’s room.
Louis Sauver was sitting at his desk writing something, but when I suddenly appeared, he opened his eyes wide in surprise.
“How, how did you get here?”
He kept saying he was busy and not in his room, but it was all lies!
I looked at Louis Sauver with resentful eyes and asked.
“Louis Sauver, what’s going on? Why have you been avoiding me like that?”
When I snapped at him, Louis Sauver pressed his lips shut again.
“Why on earth did you enter the swordsmanship tournament? And what’s this about aura manifestation?”
This time too, Louis Sauver didn’t answer.
Feeling anger rising inside me, I fired off questions rapidly.
“What happened to our goal? Did you forget we decided to prevent world destruction?”
Even so, Louis Sauver just kept watching my reactions.
“Ugh! Say something!”
When I said this while pounding my chest, Louis Sauver led me to the table and handed me a cookie that was placed on it.
Does he think I’ll be appeased by something like this?
Still, since he put it in my hand, let me at least taste it.
Munch munch.
“Th, Rene. I’m really sorry about this.”
“So please tell me what’s going on. I need to know so I can modify our strategy or do something.”
“…Could you wait just a little? Once I become a Sword Master, I promise I absolutely won’t cause such trouble.”
Louis Sauver’s eyes held sincerity, but there was no way I could see such things right now.
Sword Master? The female protagonist becoming a Sword Master?
Then the world destruction gauge would definitely rise, but doesn’t Louis Sauver care?
The moment I thought that I was the only one fretting about this current situation, all my strength drained away.
“And you have no intention of telling me the reason?”
“…I’ll come find you soon. Just wait a little until then…”
“Forget it. I don’t know what you’re trying to do, but I don’t have the authority to tell you what to do anyway. Do whatever you want.”
I gave up and told him to do as he pleased, then left his room.
I’ll let him handle his own affairs, and for now, I should do whatever I can within my means.
The maids who saw me coming out of his room—when I had never even entered it before—all looked shocked, but I just walked forward without looking back.
I was upset that he was suddenly acting like this.
I thought we had grown quite close after I was transported into this romance novel, bonding over being from South Korea.
But suddenly it felt like we had grown distant.
After trudging out of the Marquis’ mansion, I finally realized the problem.
But wait, I don’t even have a carriage—how am I supposed to get back?
Will teleportation work properly?
Will Shamal be able to find me if he knows I’m here?
I stood in the middle of the Count’s estate, looking around in all directions, then internally cried out.
Someone please come pick me up!
