Chapter 28 (1/2)

Chapter 28: Nonstop Lucio

After Hugo left the library, the King let out a sigh for some reason.

「What happened?」

Knowing that he was the King was a bit stalling, but I somehow asked with child-mode.

「I suddenly got envious of you. In what I’ve heard from Ruby, she said that you have deciphered more than a thousand Grimoires」

「Un, I read it」

「I cannot read even one book. Even though these much Grimoires are collected」

「U〜n, that can’t be help, I think. You’re the King right, the King is busy, so there’s no time to read Grimiores」

Right now was my real feelings, and there was another one.

This world’s Grimoires are manga, but I know what manga in the world that I was before.

The person called the King, it can’t be helped because he wouldn’t have time to read manga.

「……you really are thinking of that seriously」

「Un, I really think of that」

「Even so, I would think that if I could read. I also, want to experience what is magic at least once」

「I see……wait a minute」

I left the King there, and ran around inside the library.

From the thousand books of Grimoires that I’ve read, I also choose ideas from there, and searched for that inside the library.

And the three books of Grimoires that I brought, I pa.s.sed it to the King.

「Here, this」

「What is this?」

The King tilted his head and asked.

「This one’s, the Grimoire that my Ojii-san was reading. It’s the one that he said, easiest to read. And, this one is the only Grimoire an Obaa-chan somewhere read, you can learn the magic to become a dragon you know. This one’s the Grimoire that many people I asked that they have read」

「Hou?」

「I think that one of these the King can read」

「……can I read it」

「I’m sorry, if only I could teach you how to read……」

I felt a little guilty.

I have taught a lot of people to read until now, but I couldn’t teach any one of them.

「That’s why, at least, I thought I should bring the book that might be easy to read」

「I see. Yosh」

The King received the Grimoire.

「It’s your recommendation, I will carefully read it」

After separating ways with the King, I returned to the inn from the Grimoire Library.

When I entered inside, Isaac was on the lobby for some reason.

「You’re finally back Lucio. Where were you」

「Just a bit. Rather than that, why is Nii-san here?」

「I thought I might as well say greetings」

「Greetings?」

「Yeah, I also decided to live here in La Linea, I came to at least let you know」

「Was that so」

「I also bought a mansion. I will invite you in some time」

No, it’s okay. I’ll just be troubled being invited.

In the first place, why did Isaac came to La Linea?

At the time that I was going to ask that.

「Is Lucio Martein-sama here」

One man entered from the door.

It’s a man who I saw for the first time, but he’s wearing the same clothes with Hugo.

I wonder if he’s a messenger of the King?

「I’m Lucio」

I entered child-mode, and went in front of the man.

「This is the words of the King, listen respectfully」

「Yes」

The man took out a parchment, spread it, and started reading it.

「Lucio Martein. Aforesaid, praised with the achievements of ancient magic resurrection, you will be appointed to a Baron」

「Thank you very much」

The one that was said earlier in the Library.

But, it became like this huh. Achievements of ancient magic resurrection, un, it’s reasonable.

Because the King was saying to make me Baron in any way, so maybe the aides or ministers, somebody might’ve searched for that point of compromise.

I received that parchment.

I became a Baron with this huhーーwhen I was thinking of that.

「Is Lucio Martein-sama here」
