Come, To A Place With Warmer Weather To Spend The Winter
「Haaah, will it get warmer soonー」
Eleonora-neesan complained while lying face down on the kotatsu table. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
From her manner, I sense a somewhat subtle feeling of wanting attention.
And my feet were lightly kicked when I purposely ignored her.
Glancing at Eleonora-neesan, she gave me a look as if to say ‘be more prepared’ or something like that.
There are also Sylvio-niisan and Elna-kaasan here, but it looks like I’m the one being chosen as her conversation partner.
「Is it because of the cold?」
「No. It’s because of the snow I can’t practice as much as I want」
And when I asked the question as she expected, Eleonora-neesan smoothly answered so.
Normally, it will be because of the temperature that people will wish for it to become warmer soon, but it looks like it was because of practice for Eleonora-neesan.
「It’s true that you have to remove the snow when it piled up on the ground since the practice ground will become muddy t if it melts 」
「That’s right! And you have to change location if the ground is frozen and the practice time will also be reduced, you know!」
When I said something that elicited empathy, Eleonora-neesan then mentioned the reason for the reduction of the practice time one after the other.
Eleonora-neesan usually doesn’t have any trace of femininity, but she surprisingly can’t stop talking as she starts talking like a girl at times like this. Just that, it’s only limited to things related to practice or swordsmanship.
At this rate, I will be stuck with listening to Eleonora-neesan practice conversation, so turn to Sylvio-niisan - who is reading a book - next to me.
「Does Sylvio-niisan also want it to get warmer soon?」
「Un, I’m not good with cold after all」
Despite reading a book, Sylvio-niisan still sincerely looked and answered me. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
Eleonora-neesan gave me a piercing look as if she hadn’t said enough, but I ignored her.
I’m not the type that will liven up the conversation just by sympathizing so I’d like people of the same gender like Elna-kaasan or Ema-oneesama and the others to handle it.
「What about Al?」
「Hmmー, right. I’ll be able to manage with magic somehow but still, it’s tough when I go outside or when I wake up early in the morning. I can’t say I hate it but I may prefer spring」
Winter has its value and spring also has its own value.
I’m not denying either of them but as expected, I still much prefer spring and autumn since it’s easier to spend the time.
It would be nice if we could maintain a suitable temperature at all times, but even magic has its own limits.
I mean, I can’t use magic when I’m sleeping.
「I wonder if Luna’s territory is warm?」
Geh, don’t tell me Eleonora-neesan is planning to go to Eric’s territory just so she can practice comfortably?
「The climate in Misphilt Kingdom does not change that much you know」
「Eehー」
However, Eleonora-neesan’s hope was dashed by the words from Elna-kaasan.
It was so, there weren’t any regions in the kingdom that had that much difference.
「Then, how far do you have to go to arrive at somewhere warm?」
I’m also curious to know how far you have to go to get warmer.
「I think it will be warmer if you get closer to the Lazur Kingdom」
「It’s not exactly the opposite of us. It’s definitely too far」
Eleonora-neesan groaned when she heard that. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「Ah, you properly remember the geography」
「You, you’re making fun of me, didn’t you?」
And maybe she thought the remark just now was too disrespectful to her since Eleonora-neeasn sharply glares at me.
Well I mean, it’s obvious if you look at Eleonora-neesan’s usual study habits.
Even so, Lazur Kingdom, huh.
It’s Natasha-san’s birthplace, most of the country is a desert and the climate is hot all year round.
Although it’s a country adjacent to ours, Koryatt village is located at the easternmost tip of this kingdom. So it’s quite far from our place.
But, the distance doesn’t really matter for someone who can Teleport with Space magic like me.
I’ve never been to Lazur Kingdom but if I use Teleport repeatedly, I will end up there quickly.
It may not be a bad idea to try going to Lazur Kingdom as a place to escape the cold.
I can also practice my Teleport and it can also serve as training to increase the amount of my mana. Besides, I will be able to go there to sightsee next time as long as I remember the place once. It’s not just killing two birds with one stone, it’s even more.
Yosh, shall I go and try it? I need to take action once I decide.
I gracefully slipped out from under the kotatsu and returned to my room to prepare.
◆
「Yosh, everything is ready!」
After telling Sara I was going out, I left the mansion and went to a deserted grassland with few people around.
Snow covered the ground all around the place, so I could hardly see any flowers or grass below.
It’s unfortunate that I can’t even take a nap on the grass, but I’m not here to take a nap today but to Teleport repeatedly to find a warmer place to spend in winter. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
There is no one here so I will be able to calmly use Teleport here.
It may be a long journey, but I have Teleport. I will be able to return in an instant as long as I don’t misjudge the amount of my mana.
Moreover, I’ve stored a necessary amount of food and water inside my subspace so I don’t even need to bring anything.
I can just go on a trip in the same clothes as if I’m just taking a walk around here.
The advantage of Space magic is fully demonstrated.
「……Lazur Kingdom is to the far west of Misphilt Kingdom, right」
I checked the map I brought from the mansion and stored it in the subspace.
The kingdom of Lazur boasts a vast territory to the west of the Misphilt Kingdom.
All I have to do is just to continue on to the west after passing through the royal capital.
「I’ve been to the royal capital before so I will Teleport to the royal capital first and continue to use Teleport to the west from there and I should arrive there」
Although it was such a nonsensical plan, it won’t be a problem if you have Space magic.
How far I can go depends on my own mana.
Conversely, the only thing I have to take note of during the journey is my mana.
If say, I misjudge my amount of mana, then it will be difficult to make it a day trip since I have to wait until my mana recovers or stay the night in a city or a village.
And I’m sure everyone would be worried if I - a seven-year-old kid - were to stay overnight somewhere.
I can just lie that I stayed at Torr’s house or My Home, but if someone were to check on me there then it would be troublesome.
I will need a bigger lie to cover up a small lie. And eventually, it will give birth to a gap and get exposed.
So that’s why, let’s not get too adventurous.
The golden rule is to turn back without Teleporting when I’m not sure about the amount of my magic power. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
Although, I succeeded in making a long-distance Teleport to Kagura before.
The consumption of mana for it was a lot, but I have enough mana to do one and a half round trips.
I don’t think the distance to Lazur Kingdom is more than to Kagura, but let’s pay attention to my mana just in case. Conversely, it’s easy as long as I follow the rules I made.
And when you go outside, you will also encounter monsters, but when you move around using Teleport you will not come into contact with them.
All I have to do is to widen the map inside my map little by little.
「Well then, first let’s go to the royal capital」
I imagined the roof of the same building as the last time and cast Teleport.
Immediately after that, my vision distorted, and the next moment I arrived on the roof of a building in the royal capital.
It’s immensely convenient as usual. A week of distance by carriage was made in only an instant.
I arrived at the royal capital, but I could barely feel any mana consumption. There’s no problem with the amount of mana.
I should just continue to heat west after leaving the west gate, but I will of course have to go through the guards and knights inspection if I were to pass through the gate.
Though I’m supposed to be in Koryatt village so it will be bad if people know I’m currently in the royal capital.
It would be fine if it were any other unimportant Baron house, but my family is kinda famous and I’ve gotten to know people like Alicia and Ra-chan.
There’s no leakage of information if anything.
So when it comes to a place where I don’t have to pass through the gate――
「……I knew it, it’s the sky」
This would probably be the best option. I won’t get caught up in the inspection at the gate if I were to pass through from the sky with Teleport and I won’t be seen.
Hooray for illegal entry and illegal exit.
Creating Shield as stairs, I climbed straight up to the sky above the royal capital.
Then, I confirmed the location of the west gate after I reached a high enough altitude that people wouldn’t be able to see me.
Destination Lazur Kingdom, a place with warmer weather to spend the winter.
Setting my eyes far to the west, I cast Teleport. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
