A few days after the admission briefing.
I managed to get through the aptitude diagnosis, and I was looking forward to the start of school and spending my days leisurely.
The day when I fluttered as a demon king and a wise man seems to be a distant dream.
However, as expected, the peaceful days did not last so long.
It all started with rumours that "suspicious people who came to the city are looking for wise men."
It was the mayor of a neighbouring town who brought the rumour to my house.
"Although I hide my identity with a robe, it seems that I'm wearing a sword ... There is a story that a glimpse of the sword had the coat of arms of Mayley."
"Mayley's country ... I see ..."
"They are listening to the people in the city.'Did you see a big disaster or a person using great magical power around here?'"
The mayor said so and turned his confused face to his father, the lord.
My father nodded silently, but I can almost imagine what he was thinking.
Because I think the same thing.
Princess Claris kept my existence a secret, as promised.
However, perhaps the investigation revealed that the King had subdued the Demon King.
It's not surprising because I expected that part to come out sooner or later.
When I was thinking with my ears stuck to the door and listening.
"Bo-chan? What?"
When I was called out and looked back in a hurry, the maid who brought the tea was mysteriously tilting her head when she saw me.
"Wow! Nothing!"
should not.
I was completely distracted by my father's conversation.
I hurriedly ran away from the front of the room.
Sigh lightly while climbing the stairs.
Good grief.
Did this happen after all?
At the moment, I'm hiding that I'm a knight of Mayley and I'm looking for it.
However, in the future, he may formally talk to the king of this country and start searching in a grand manner.
You can make up any number of reasons without revealing the awakening of the wise man.
If that happens, it will become more and more important.
My father is also a Margrave.
If you leave it as it is, there is a high possibility that I will be forced into a delicate position.
I don't want to bother my father.
……it can not be helped.
Let's talk about it once.
I could have predicted that this would happen anyway, but I feel heavy.
I don't want to worry about my parents, so let's go and come back alone. How to get to Merley alone ... Is that the way to go?
I had a plan for such a time.
I myself learned the transfer magic (self) when I defeated the Demon King.
However, it cannot be activated at this stage because the amount of magical power is insufficient.
When it comes to that, there is no choice but to have someone fly it.
Only my father and eldest son have acquired the transfer magic that others fly in our family.
While my dad was talking to the mayor ...
After climbing the stairs, I hurried to my eldest son Logan's room.
◇◇◇
"Forgotten at school?"
My brother, who was writing at the desk, stopped his hand and looked back at me.
As I approached, I looked up at my tall brother with a troubled face.
"That's right, brother. A treasure coin given by a dead grandpa. The other day, when I went to school for a diagnosis, I took it with a talisman and it seemed to have fallen."
"Absolutely Eddie. Don't take anything important to the school."
"Yeah, I'm sorry"
My brother's voice is calm even if he shows a scolding attitude.
This eldest son, like his parents, is vulnerable to my younger brother, who is older than me.
"I can't help it, let's go get it with me in a carriage"
"That's no good ... If my dad and mom know about coins, I'm sure they'll be scolded. So I just want you to secretly transfer me to school."
"You're a transfer, that's ..."
"You can go right away with your brother's transfer magic, right? Then you'll be back in a carriage with Max!"
The second son, Max, goes to the high school of the academy by carriage every day.
"Transfer magic (other)" possessed by his brother Logan can only fly others.
I was lucky that Logan didn't acquire the magic to transfer himself, "Transfer Magic (Self)".
Thanks to that, Logan can't say he's following me.
"I'm still worried about letting him go alone. I just had something like that the other day ..."
"Already, my brother. I'm a freshman at the Royal Academy in a little while. I can go get my forgotten things by myself."
When I swelled my cheeks, my brother smiled unavoidably.
"... Yeah. You're about to want to do anything by yourself. I don't know if there's any danger, and it's my brother's job to gain some experience." Let's prepare the magic "
"Thank you, brother!
"Haha is a helpless guy. I understand, so don't hurry."
Transfer magic is activated by drawing a magic circle at your feet.
My brother took out chalk, a large parchment, and a map from the desk drawer and spread them on the floor.
"Eddie should be a little away. Don't touch the magic circle. It would be difficult if the technique was rewritten."
"Yes"
My brother looked at the map to check the longitude and latitude of the academy and incorporated it into the magic circle.
Look at it from a distance.
It's the first time I've seen my brother write a magic circle since I remembered it, but it's pretty fast.
Few people can draw such a complicated magic circle accurately and without hesitation.
"Okay, it's done."
I screamed loudly.
"Wow! Onii-chan, there is a mouse behind the curtain!"
"Mu !? What? Eddie, wait a minute!"
"My brother dived under the desk!"
"Wow, I see! Here !?"
While my brother was crouching down and looking under the desk, I picked up the choke and quickly fixed the magic circle.
I fixed the longitude and latitude.
-In other words, you have corrected your destination.
...... By the way, let's fix some things that are a little worrisome.
There is no waste in my brother's magic circle, but this puts a heavy burden on the 6-year-old body.
When I quickly rewrote it and put the choke back in place, my brother raised his face.
"Onii-chan. How about?"
"Um ... I'm sorry. It looks like I've escaped. I'll tell the maid later."
"Yeah. I'm sorry to surprise you, brother."
"No. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Then stand in the magic circle."
"Yup!"
As soon as I entered the magic circle, the transfer magic was activated.
I closed my eyes and relaxed while feeling the wind caused by the transfer magic.
The sensation that the viscera floats softly.
I feel like the inside of my body is tickling.
A moment later, when I opened my eyes, I was standing in a different place.
The wind that surrounds it disappears with a slight delay.
I came to a certain office.
"Who are you?"
A bearded man sitting in a chair looked at me and raised his eyebrows suspiciously.
Even if a child suddenly appears, no one will move.
From his majestic behaviour, he instantly realized that he was not a foolish king.
Since I've been dating countless kings in my previous life, it's as easy as instantly recognizing whether it's a helpless idiot king or a fine wise king.
Right now, only the king and I are in this office.
There is a sign of escort behind the door, but I also like the area where my aides aren't rushing.
As you can see from the first impression, it would be helpful if you could communicate properly.
With that in mind, I call out to the king.
"You were looking for me, right?"
"……what?"
I smiled at ease and extended my hand to the person.
"Did you want to talk to me? That's why I came to see you, King. Let's talk now."
