Chapter 30: Prized Wife

I am in a party.

A night party that is being opened inside the palace.

The organizer was the King, therefore, almost all of the partic.i.p.ants seems to be n.o.bles or wealthy people, they looked like celebrities.

Of course, the venue was also extremely flamboyant.

「Wawa……」

Sylvia who was beside me was being taken aback.

I took her with me, wearing a dress from the Dress Up magic, but she was panicking to the scale of the party.

「L-Lucio-sama」

「Un?」

「I think that I am out of place」

「That’s not true, you know」

「But, everybody around are all grown-ups, they are all ladies and gentlemen. There is no one else childish like me」

「If you say that, there isn’t another kid other than me, right. Well, don’t mind it too much. Sylvia is my wife, so you should just act in a stately manner」

「Yes, I understand」

Sylvia nodded, but she was still too stiff.

“I should be in manner”, it was clear that she was nervous thinking of that.

「Ah! Lucio-sama, I will go get drinks!」

She said that, and *PataPata* she ran.

That can be left to the venue personnel though.

Well, rather than being nervous at all times, it might be better to let Sylvia do something to make her distracted.

And when I was looking at that from far away, one man approached Sylvia with dispute.

It was a young man at around the same with Isaac about 16-7,  and the clothes he was wearing looks expensive even from where I look from far away.

I approached, and called out from the behind.

「Ne〜ne〜, what do you want with my wife〜?」

I talked to him in child-mode.

「Lucio-sama!」

「Lucio-samaaa?」

Sylvia ran towards where I was, and the man looked at me as if to measure me.

「What happened?」

「E〜to……uhm」

「Why is a kid like you in here? Do you know what kind of place this is and what today’s event is?」

「I’m sorry, I don’t know」

Honestly, I really thought of that.

Is something going to happen? I came here because I received an invitation from the King, is there some kind of real meaning for it.

「I guessed so. It’s something kids like you won’t know about. Kids like you should hurry up and go home, just go play house or whatever」

The young man said that, and went away with a stride.

He then calls out to a young lady at around the same age that was in a little far away, and talked joyfully.

「Let’s go back」

「Yes」

I took Sylvia with me, and return to where we were earlier.

「I’m sorry, Lucio-sama」

「Un?」

「It’s because I’m a kid, I’m causing problems for Lucio-sama right」

「It’s not like I’m being troubled at all」

「Un……but……」

Sylvia looked at the grown-ups.

When I followed her sight, I found out that she was staring at a very grown-up beauty.

「I want grow up faster……」

「You want to try?」

「Eh?」

Sylvia was surprised, and stared at me as if to confirm.

「Do I want to try, what do you mean Lucio-sama」

「Do you want to be a grown-up beauty like that, I mean. Using my magic」

「Ah!……Lucio-sama’s magic」

Sylvia’s eyes s.h.i.+ned in an instant, but she soon looked down.

「It is okay, even if I become a grown-up, it is not like I am going to be a beauty like her」

「Un? That’s not true at all. When Sylvia becomes a grown-up, you’re going to be more beautiful than that person. I, who looks at Sylvia everyday, can guarantee」

「But……」

「Seeing is believing」

I stopped Sylvia’s words, reached out my hand and used magic.

Some people nearby was surprised. It was because I suddenly started using magic.

But ignoring that, I casted magic on Sylvia.

「Fake Growth」

Soon after the light of the magic enveloped Sylvia, her body grew up.

The 9-year old body of Sylvia grew up in an instant.

She grew up to her 16 year old appearance that I had specified.

Sylvia looked at herself, and looked down at me with a surprised face.

「T-This is?」

「It’s a magic that changes the appearance to look like a grown up. I specified it to about 16-years old. It means, how you look right now, is how Sylvia would really look like after growing up to 16-years old」

「Amazing……there is also this kind of magic huh……」

Sylvia sighs in wonder. I stared at her intently.

「Un, beautiful」

「Eh?」

「You’re as beautiful as I thought, Sylvia. Let me say, you are more beautiful than anyone in here」

「T-T-T-T-That’s not true desu」

Sylvia blushes and sways off her hands. But, that was my honest opinion.

The Sylvia right now is beautiful. With no doubt, she was more beautiful than any other woman in here today.
