A VR Travel Story That Makes You Want to Be Humiliated

Chapter 225: Magic Show (1)

"What is famous here?"

"What, are you travelers?"

"I'm an adventurer. "I came to this city for a trip."

"Hmm, it's famous, so even if you ask so vaguely... "

"Please give me six skewers." Just give me three, and three are for packaging."

"I received an order for six skewers! Did you ask what this town is famous for? If that's the case, I know it well. First... "

After leaving the Marti family, we wandered around the market for a walk, snacks, and to gather information.

As befits a city where the duke's family's home is located, the market was bustling with activity.

The market, which was formed in a circle around a large fountain built beneath the statue of a man who was probably the family's founder, was bustling with people even though it was daylight during the peak working hours.

"This is sea fish transported directly by an inventory expert! Come see the fish as fresh as it was just caught!"

"How about the latest trendy accessories in the imperial capital? "We are selling high-end accessories that even nobles look for at a low price today only!"

"I have a good potion for men! Yes? How good is it? "It's a bit difficult to say, but it's a good potion for men!"

The large market was saturated with merchants soliciting customers to sell even one more product and the voices of customers showing interest in such products.

Various performances were taking place in the fountain in the center.

An acrobat who throws five or six balls into the sky and catches them skillfully, a magician who draws coins from all over his body and receives cheers, and even a bard who shows off his flashy speaking skills with bright-eyed children sitting in front of him.

It was such an ideal landscape that I thought that if I were asked to draw a picture with the theme of 'a lively plaza market', this would be the picture I would get.

"Wow. It reminds me of the old days."

"If it was the old days... "

"Yes, before I was kidnapped. Even though it wasn't this active, I think it was this big."

Flora, who was walking while biting into a piece of grilled skewer, recalled her days as a princess and was so impressed that she said everything.

Flora's country was literally at the forefront, so the atmosphere may have been somewhat depressed, but the square of the imperial duke's family, compared to the square of the capital of a country, spoke of the empire's status.

"So, what did that guy say earlier?"

Asil had already downed one skewer and took out a new skewer from the box he had packed and asked while muttering.

"I've heard a lot about this and that, but this is what I'm attracted to."

I showed the leaflet I received from the street vendor.

Since it was a leaflet that was handed out every day, he already had it and was about to throw away the excess, but he said he would just give it to me.

Why are you being so condescending when you were going to throw it away anyway?

Asil looked closely at the leaflet I gave him.

"Let's see." 'A popular magic show. 'Finally landing!'"

"There's a famous magician recently, and it looks like he's performing here this time."

"What is shape?"

"That's right, I don't know anything other than what's written on that leaflet."

"Well, that's true. Huh? "Is this tomorrow?"

"Okay. "Wouldn't it be perfect to hang out here for one more day and then go see a magic show tomorrow?"

"Oh. "I think it's a pretty good idea, isn't it?"

"Since that's the case, let's have fun today. Flora. "Is there somewhere you want to go?"

"Eh, me?"

Flora was surprised, as if she didn't know the topic would come back to her.

Although he had improved significantly after going through the academy, Flora still lacked independence in many ways compared to an ordinary person.

Even if you don't try to stay by my side, you have trouble making decisions.

I thought it would be a good idea to get people into the habit of making their own choices when there is no pressure, like now.

... Rani, I am not Flora's mother and I wonder if I should do something like this.

I look at it because it's cute.

This time again, Flora was confused and could not make a decision.

"Choose comfortably. "I'm just having fun anyway."

"Yeah, but. If what I chose wasn't good... "

"We're just having fun anyway, so what's the point? If it's not good, you can go to something else later. "We have a lot of money and a lot of time."

"Ah. Soira. If Flora doesn't choose, I... "

Jerrit!

She glared at Asil, who tried to intervene without notice, and made him quiet.

Now my child... No, Flora is teaching, so don't interfere. Without notice.

Fortunately, Asil seemed to have had the last chance to recognize her glare and quietly took out her third skewer.

But we bought two skewers per person. I guess I'll have to take something and eat it later.

"Yeah, um, um... "

Flora kept rolling her eyes here and there, and began to think seriously, perhaps realizing that if she didn't choose, I wouldn't say anything until the end.

"Well, then... "

That's how we came to.

"... "I see you guys strangely often."

"Haha... "

It was a magic testing room in the wizard guild.

If I get a new item, I should use it. I changed my equipment, how can I tolerate this? Furthermore, I understand Flora's feelings for choosing this place.

But I never thought I would see this person here again.

We happened to have some business to do at the wizard's guild, so we bumped into Luca, who was there, and smiled awkwardly at each other.

Who would have thought that we would already be seeing each other after saying goodbye for just a few hours.

Perhaps it was truly a coincidence, but I immediately disappeared into the guild, but the awkward smile on my face remained for a long time afterward.

Only when other people in the guild were looking at us strangely did we enter the exam room, which was our original purpose.

"I think I've seen this a lot somewhere?"

As soon as I paid the fee and entered the exam room, Asil complained of déjà vu.

No, why doesn't he recognize this?

"It resembles the training ground at the academy."

"Ah! Is that so?"

It had only been one day since he left the academy, but it already felt like his memory had been reset.

Well, Asil was hard to see at the training ground.

I came out a little hard for the first few days, but soon I became absorbed in just having fun. I don't know where I went to have fun.

– Kwaaang!!

I had a chat with Asil while looking at Flora who was diligently using magic in a test room where damage was displayed when attacking a wall formed by magic, like the training ground at the academy.

Flora holds up her newly acquired staff.

Looking at the damage shown, she rubbed her eyes in disbelief, then carefully placed the staff on the floor and banged it again.

Looking at the newly displayed damage, she tilted her head and raised her staff again.

After repeating it a few times, she seemed to be convinced of the effectiveness of the staff, her eyes sparkling, and she raised both hands in worship.

... If I had known you would like it so much, I would have saved you sooner.

Magical Staff – Ruby is a piece of equipment that is difficult to obtain and gives bonuses to all attributes to varying degrees, but if we limit ourselves to just one of Flora's main attributes, the fire type, we can somehow obtain equipment of a similar level even with our party's financial situation. There was.

The ability called Flor itself is a magic-specific ability, and it can be used well without a staff or wand, so I thought there was no need for a staff.

But now I see it wasn't like that. A little reflection.

After the test was over, I walked around the market and played with Flora, who hugged the staff as if they were treasures.

The staff exam ended quickly, so there was a lot of time left.

The day after I spent the day like that.

"The best magic show in the empire starts now!!"

– Waaaaa!!

The long-awaited magic show has finally begun.

It may not be the best in the empire, but it was evident from the crowds gathered in the wide square that the host was so popular that he said so.

On the second floor of the building overlooking the plaza, people were sticking their heads out of every window and looking at the podium, and some young naughty children were often seen getting scolded by adults around them as they tried to climb trees to look around.

In line with people's expectations, the magic show was a success.

In a world where magic exists, magic is beyond imagination.

My eyes are rolling in a splendor that makes it difficult to explain what is going on, Flora next to me is tilting her head and trying to find magic in the magic show several times, and Asil is cheering without thinking.? Br?

She enjoyed magic in her own way and finally reached the climax of the magic show.

"Unfortunately, this is the last show! Haha. Don't be too discouraged. The performance will continue for a few more days. Then, I will introduce a rare magician worthy of the last one! The magician of space, space!!!"

– Space! Space!!

The audience's voice grows louder as the host sings.

A tent opened, and a masked man walked up to the platform waving his hand... Just disappeared.

The cheers of the audience, unable to adapt to the sudden change in situation, gradually subsided.

However, the host continued the proceedings in a familiar manner.

"Oh! Looks like our space made a mistake. I think I closed the space without realizing it because of your cheers. How far has it gone?"

As the host spoke, the audience began to look around.

Soon, a commotion broke out somewhere in the square.

"Here!"

"Space is here!"

"It wasn't there until just now!"

"Haha. Excuse me. Please excuse me."

Space made his way through the crowd of people in the audience with a voice that was natural but somehow had an acting tone.

At the moment when people's attention was focused, Space took another step forward.

The next moment, he appeared next to the presenter on the podium.

– Waaaaa!! It's magic!!!

"Nonsense. "I didn't feel any magic power?"

Flora reacts like a fantasy native to the magic unfolding before her eyes.

Asil and I, who are familiar with magic, just enjoyed the magic, cheering along with the rest of the audience.
