(EP-281.2) Fairy and Summer Trip #5
281 – The Clumsy Fairy and the Summer Trip #5
Yesterday, she pretended not to care and stormed off to her room. Did she spend the night thinking it over and decide to change her mind in a more positive direction?
She has a cute side to her.
However, if I were to tease Mirna too much here, her pride might take a hit, and she could get even more upset. So, I pretended not to care and said.
“How to earn points....”
“You’re not saying you haven’t thought about it, are you?”
“......”
I hadn’t really thought about it.
I was just giving out points arbitrarily whenever I felt like it. Maybe she sensed that, because Mirna let out a deep sigh early in the morning.
“There will definitely be complaints. So, I thought about it last night. Thanks to that, Narmi will be taking my place tomorrow and the day after.”
Shaaak—.
Mirna showed me a long scroll.
The contents written on it were...
「Morning wake up call +10 points
Preparing a meal +10 points
Listening to worries +10 points
.
.
.
Childbirth bonus +100 points」
“What is this?”
“The northern guards are mostly focused on the Great Wall Clarice right now. Because the fickle Queen has been pouring excessive troops and resources into the wall.”
I see.
It seems that by concentrating too much on the wall, other areas have been neglected. It’s only natural since resources and manpower were limited.
“If you’re a politician, why don’t you do something about it? There are already too many dungeons appearing in the north. There’s a lot of problems.”
The witch adventurer grumbled. Before I could respond, Mirna, who had been listening to the conversation, jumped in ahead of me.
“Sir Theo is an archmage who has surpassed the 5th rank. He can easily deal with those bandits, so the situation will be resolved soon.”
Only then did the tension in the faces of the people around us start to ease. An archmage was kind of like a tactical weapon or troubleshooter.
However.
A dwarf adventurer with a bandage on his face uttered a pessimistic story.
“A mage might not be enough. Not long ago, a young archmage party from the White Mage Tower raided the bandits’ hideout. But, we haven’t heard anything from them since. They’re missing.”
Archmage from the White Mage Tower.
Missing.
At those words, the people around us became agitated again.
━Is he talking about that white mage, Tefer, from the White Mage Tower?
━Missing...
Tefer.
I thought the name sounded familiar. But it was the mention of ‘an archmage from the White Mage Tower’ that helped me remember. Wasn’t she the Ark student who placed 4th in the Queen Contest?
I remember her because she was a genius who had achieved the 5th rank at an age similar to mine. She had brown curly hair, braided into two and wore glasses. She looked like a gentle lamb.
But despite her meek appearance, her skills were extraordinary.
And yet, she’s missing.
With a genius archmage gone missing, I can only imagine the uproar in the White Mage Tower.
This situation might not be as simple as I initially thought.
