Even... after years of precipitation, it has become more and more charming.
"I actually don't like drinking very much"
Aozaki Touko supported the guardrail, looked at the bright moonlight, and chuckled, "Besides, if I'm down there... they won't be able to let me go."
If she is having a baby and having a banquet now, she will either be surrounded by people and praise her, or people will feel a little bit reluctant to let go. Of course, it is more likely to be both.
Therefore, she had the self-knowledge to leave the banquet and leave the space for her subordinates to have their own fun.
"Ha... after all, you are Magic User~"
Kayneth said with a very understanding smile, "This situation is simply like ordinary people seeing Prime Minister... No, maybe it can be compared to ordinary people seeing gods."
In this era... Magic User is a very meaningful existence. It is a god directly connected to Root in the past era of gods. It has the same great power. There is no problem in saying that it is equivalent to a god.
And...Aozaki Touko's life trajectory is too brilliant, and his rise speed is almost like a myth.
Therefore, it is covered with a sacred veil in the eyes of ordinary Magecraft teachers.
"This is really not something you would say..."
Aozaki Touko pursed his lips and smiled, gently holding the hair beside his ear with his bare hands. "If it were you before... you should be confident and work hard, and then achieve the same achievements as me, right?"
"... Now I'm just a housewife."
Shaking his head slightly, Kayneth said with a happy smile, "Master Magecraft's status should be regarded as a matter of interest. It is enough to be able to live a peaceful life with Sola."
He has seen a lot in the society of ordinary people, and he has also thought a lot about the memories of his past life. If he continues to pursue the pursuit of a traditional Magecraft master, maybe... he will end up with nothing.
Even if his pursuit reaches Root, the final outcome is nothing more than... a relatively clean death with no ashes left. If that is the case, then why doesn't he choose to spend a happy life with Sola.
As for family responsibilities, now his adopted sister Lainis·El-Melloi·Achizolti is doing a good job.
In this case... wouldn't it be good to choose to spend a happy life with Sola.
"Kayneth... You have really changed a lot."
Aozaki Touko sighed, and then glanced at the living room downstairs, where Roman was holding a wine glass, and together with several grown men, they were asking Kayneth for a drink.
"There are many people down here who want to drink with you. It seems that you are really popular."
"..."
Hearing this, Kayneth followed his gaze and immediately twitched the corner of his mouth. Those guys were not looking for him to drink, they were looking for Miss Kenshin to drink. It would be weird if they transformed into Miss Kenshin without being teased.
So, he shook his head slightly and said rationally:
"For the time being, we still need to keep a clear mind to face tomorrow's work."
"It's work~"
Aozaki Touko raised his eyebrows slightly, and then showed a bad Mind's Eye smile, "Speaking of which, Kayneth... are you planning to go back to London in the near future to see with your own eyes what El-Melloi Family is now?"
"... back to London."
Kayneth looked a little complicated and took a sip of red wine. "With Magic User taking care of the El-Melloi Family, no matter how many difficulties we encounter, we will get through it safely."
Even if he is in Tokyo, he has been paying attention to the El-Melloi Family in London. Even if he cannot fully understand what is happening, he can still know the general development and current situation.
Now El-Melloi Family is under the dawn of Aozaki Touko Magic User's reputation,
Although life was a bit difficult... Clock Tower The other families did not target El-Melloi Family too much.
Even... maybe there will be a breakthrough in some sense in the future.
"... I did step in to help a little bit."
Aozaki Touko A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "However, I also received a good reward. Your adopted sister is really cute. It's really hard to stop bullying her."
"... Bullying... just treat it as training."
Kayneth's expression froze, and he turned away his eyes and said, "What you want to get, you have to pay for it. This is natural, isn't it?"
In a sense, Lainis, who became the leader of El-Melloi, has the right to choose his destiny. According to the normal life trajectory, he would probably end up being married.
Therefore, even if some difficulties occur during the period of becoming the head of the family, it is just the price of moving towards a better destiny.
"So... you don't plan to go back and take a look?"
Aozaki Touko's pretty face showed a bit of disappointment, as if she was disappointed with Kayneth's choice.
"No... please allow me to think about this."
Shaking his head slightly, Kayneth drank all the red wine in the glass, with a look of struggle on his face. To be honest, he really wanted to go back to London for a visit, but he felt timid about being close to home.
Moreover, Clock Tower clearly stated that he was already dead.
"Don't worry, your identity won't be revealed."
Aozaki Touko smiled slyly and said, "This time you will return to London in the name of my maid. Then you can also use my name to do what you want to do."
"The maid... is indeed a good concealment method."
Kayneth twitched the corner of his mouth and said with a headache, "But if this continues, I will almost blur my gender identity."
He can probably guess what Aozaki Touko is thinking now, which is nothing more than wanting to see what will happen if he cross-dresses and returns to London. However, he feels that returning to London like this will lose some important dignity.
And it's hard to imagine what I would do if exposed.
"Hehe... this trip back is still worthwhile."
Aozaki Touko's smile became sweeter and sweeter, "Don't you want to see Waver now? Now... he misses you and feels extremely guilty."
"...Waver."
Hearing this, Kayneth thought for a moment, and then replied, "Well, it would be good to go back and see how stupid he is."
"Then it's agreed."
Aozaki Touko closed one eye, put his index finger on his red lips and said, "In two days... we will take a private jet directly to London. This trip will be considered as your paid leave."
"Okay."
Chapter 294: Fairytale Childhood
"Touko Mama... I can't sleep."
Illya was lying on the soft bed, her red eyes staring at the unfamiliar ceiling. It seemed that too many things had happened today, which made her a little too excited, and now she had no sleep at all.
This kid... has too much energy.
Aozaki Touko glanced at her daughter helplessly, picked up the remote control and pressed the light. Then the lights in the room dimmed. Then, she turned over and took Illya into her arms. She raised her hand to gently stroke her daughter's smooth silver hair.
"Sleep, Illya, there will be good stories in your dreams tonight."
The soft and gentle voice echoed gently in the bedroom, and Illya felt a laziness and sleepiness well up in his heart. He gradually closed his eyes and fell into a sweet sleep.
I don't know why, but every time Touko Mama comforts her to sleep, it always works very well.
Just one word can put her to sleep.
*
*
"Hey...Illya... wake up."
A cold and sweet voice suddenly sounded.
In her sleep, Illya frowned slightly, and then opened her eyes in confusion and sleepiness. Then, she fell into a state of trance as the scene before her eyes changed.
Beside her bed, a beautiful girl with long silver hair was suspended in mid-air. She had a pair of black wings behind her back and was wearing Lolita-style clothes.
There are pieces of black feathers falling gently in the air like embellishments.
"Are you awake?"
The beautiful Silver-haired girl nodded slightly with satisfaction, then lifted up the hem of her skirt gracefully and performed a lady's skirt-lifting ceremony, and then said with a straight face, "My name is Suigintou, and I am the controller of this space."
"... Um... I am Illya, please give me your advice!"
Illya instinctively replied politely, and immediately realized that something was wrong. She should be sleeping in her mother's arms now, why did she appear in this castle-like room with a room.
Could it be that... she actually traveled through time?
"Hmm... it seems that you are very receptive."
Suigintou nodded with satisfaction. Then, he bent down and took out a big sword from under his skirt. After Illya subconsciously took the big sword, he explained:
"Brave, this is the best sword in our village. Please use this sword to defeat Demon King Shinku and bring peace to this world."
"Wait... Isn't this development too weird?!"
Illya waved his hands in panic, his drowsiness completely disappeared, and asked in panic, "I didn't even tell you the basic story background, and just went straight to fight the Demon King. Even an NPC grandpa wouldn't be so perfunctory."
"... So it turns out that there is a need to introduce the background story when summoning a hero."
Suigintou showed a slightly dissatisfied expression, but he still had the patience to say, "The evil Shinku ate the cake that the master gave me, so I summoned the brave to defeat Shinku."
"What a random setting this is!!!"
Illya's eyes widened and he couldn't help but complain, "You summoned the brave to fight just for a cake. Haven't you considered the brave's feelings?"
"But you can't go back without seeing Shinku."
Suddenly Suigintou suddenly said such a sentence.
Upon hearing this, Illya's cute little face froze, and she couldn't help but raise her finger and point at herself. "Based on common sense, sister Suigintou, do you think a young girl like me can fight?"
"Didn't you get the best sword in the village?"
Suigintou pointed to the big sword beside him and explained seriously, "This sword is an artifact that can only be used by brave people... It can give you the ability to defeat monsters and gain experience points. As long as you train well, you will be able to defeat Shinku sooner or later and get my share of the cake back."
"... Isn't this too casual?"
Illya was a little helpless to say a word, and then whispered, "If I disappear, Touko Mama, Irisviel's mother will be very worried."
"It's okay. You can go back at dawn in the real world."
Suddenly, Suigintou's expression became much gentler. "Actually, Illya, you are in a dream right now. You will wake up and go home when the sun comes up."
"... Didn't you say you couldn't go back before?"
Illya blinked her red eyes and couldn't help feeling relieved in her heart. She was really afraid that Touko Mama would be so worried and anxious when she woke up and found that her lovely daughter was missing.
"Well... the settings have been changed."
Suigintou shook his head slightly, held his chin with his hand and said, "Well, if you don't defeat Shinku, then you will dream here every night until you defeat Shinku and get back the cake I lost."
"... Excuse me, is Shinku very powerful?"
Illya raised his hand weakly, with a little fear and worry on his face. Seeing this, Suigintou glanced at Illya and replied, "It's very powerful. I can probably hit a hundred Illya with one hand."
Saying this, she waved her hand carelessly.
"But Illya, don't worry, Shinku will be a little angry at most, grab you and spank you, or maybe punish you with a bunch of homework.
"Homework!"
Illya looked a little panicked.
There is something wrong with this world... Do you have to do homework in your dreams?
*
*
in reality.
In the bedroom, Aozaki Touko and Irisviel hugged each other and leaned against the bed. There was a display screen suspended in front of them, which played the interactive scenes of Illya and Suigintou.
Now they have seen Illya holding a big sword... leaving the city to start the journey of leveling up slimes.
"... Perhaps Illya and Taiga should be allowed to learn kendo"
Irisviel looked at his daughter's clumsy movements and began to think about whether he should ask Taiga to teach his daughter kendo. You must know that Taiga's swordsmanship level is something that Touko has always praised.
"There will be no danger in Reality Marble."
Aozaki Touko shook his head slightly and said softly, "I squeezed this Reality Marble just to give Illya a place to have fun, and to cultivate friendship with Rose Maiden."
"... friend"
Irisviel rested his head on Touko's shoulder. "Actually, when I was in Einzbern, I also dreamed of experiencing a fairy tale-like story and being able to go on adventures and make friends with cute elves."
She did not have a so-called childhood... her body was already mature when she was born, and she became Aozaki Touko's wife not long after she became conscious. Although she was not dissatisfied with this, she felt sincerely lucky to meet Aozaki Touko.
