Magic Stone Lamp

 Nonetheless, when you see a fascinating item like this, even I would want to buy it. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

「Should I buy something too……」

 I want to sleep in my room while gazing at the fantastical light from the lamp.

「This is the product I will recommend if you would like to casually present something to a friend or acquaintance」

 As I was troubled over it like that, Oaken led us to something.

 As we moved along with him, there was a row of smaller lamps lined up over there.

 While the lamps here are smaller and less vivid than the lamps from before, the price is still at a reasonable level.

 The prices were also fixed to a few to a few dozen gold coins――wait a minute, my sense of money might have gone strange to think that a few dozen gold coins are ‘fixed’ prices.

 As I looked at the products lined up while smiling wryly inside, a pair of S-shaped lamp caught my attention. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

 The shaded part of the lamp is somewhat small, but it makes good use of its curved base resulting in a well-balanced finish.

 The soft green and blue glow reminds me of Elna-kaasan and Nord-tousan.

 I feel like these will suit those two.

「Are you interested in these lamps?」

「Yes, I think it’s going to suit my parents」

「Certainly! It matches perfectly with the tolerant air of Elna-sama and the composure of Nord-sama!」

 Saying Elna-kaasan is ‘tolerant’ is kinda questionable, but if a woman like Loretta were to agree to these, then I guess it would be fine gifts.

「I’d like these S-shaped lamps please」

「Thank you very much」

 The price for both of them is 30 gold coins. It’s a bit pricey to have as souvenirs, but it won’t hurt as much when you think of them as gifts for your family.

「Maybe I should also buy some souvenirs for Eleonora-neesan and Sylvio-niisan」

 I know they’ll be asking for souvenirs from the royal capital so I’ll just buy the souvenirs for neesan and nissan at the same time here.

 Sylvio-niisan will be a lamp. He likes reading in his room so I want to buy him a lamp so he can read in peace.

「This, this is going to fit for Al’s niisan!」

 Just when I was looking around the lamps, Ra-chan rushed over to me.

 She holds a book in her little arms.

「……a book?」

「Try opening it!」

 When I tried opening the book after receiving it from Ra-chan, the pages opened and a warm light emanated from it. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

「Waa, what is this? A book-type lamp?」

「Seems so! It’s interesting, isn’t it?」

「Un, it is interesting. I will buy this as a souvenir for Sylvio-niisan. Thank you」

「Ehehe」

 Ra-chan happily smiled when I thanked her after finding the book.

 According to Oaken, it seems to be a light with a book motif. The light will turn on when you take it out and open it, and when you close it the light will turn off. How interesting.

 This is the only souvenir fit for Sylvio-niisan. I can’t think of anything else.

「Now then, only Eleonora-neesan left……」

 After Elna-kaasan, she is the person most difficult to give souvenirs to among the family members.

「Al’s oneesan?」

「Un. Is there anything nice for her, you think?」

「Hmーm, don’t know」

 I asked her with the same expectation that she would actively help me with it as before, but it seemed like nothing had come to Ra-chan’s mind.

 Even when she visited our mansion, she was always playing with me and Eric, she didn’t have that much contact with Eleonora-neesan. I guess she doesn’t have anything she could imagine to be good for her.

 It’s unfortunate since I would be able to use it as an excuse if it was chosen by Ra-chan when I gave it to Eleonora-neesan.

 If I can’t ask Ra-chan’s help then there is nothing to do but to choose and decide by myself here.

 Eleonora-neesan will put the lamp in her room, appreciating the light……it’s obvious neesan is not the type who will do something cute and lovable in nature.

 Suppose that I give it to her, I could imagine her carelessly leaving it on the floor and stepping on it, breaking it, or doing her practice indoors and ending up destroying it.

「I want to buy a present for my sister, do you have anything else you would recommend besides lamps?」

「How about some accessories over here」

 The place Oaken guided me to is a place mainly for accessories such as bracelets, rings, necklaces, and earrings, made from processed magic stones.

 Come to think of it, Eleonora-neesan was wearing earrings.

 I gave her a hair band and scrunchie last time, and she was quite happy with them.

 I feel like it’s not a bad idea to have accessories as choices for souvenirs.

 When I focused on the earrings, there were some that were modeled after butterfly’s wings.

 Black and jade green color runs through it, and even the fibers and scales are finely detailed.

「Those are called butterfly earrings, they are made using real butterfly wings」

「I knew it, they use real butterfly wings」

「Yes. Not only can you enjoy the different appearance on each side, it will also glow if you infuse them with magic」

「Ah, it glows」

 When I tried channeling mana into it, the butterfly’s wings slightly lit up.

 Not only does it look pretty as an accessory, but it seems like it can also be used as a light source.

 If it’s earrings, then even she has also worn them already and it won’t be bad if she knows that they also have a practical function. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

「Then, I will have this too please」

「Thank you very much」

 After I told him my intention of buying it, Oaken politely brought them to the register.

「Now that I have decided the souvenirs for my family, I guess it’s time to pay」

「Are you not going to buy for yourself, Al?」

「Ah, I forgot」

I became so immersed in choosing and buying souvenirs for my family that I completely forgot about mine. Even though I was also thinking of getting myself a lamp too.

「What kind of lamp does Al want?」

「I want a lamp to put in my bedroom. A lamp with pretty lights I can gaze at before going to bed, or relax while reading a book」

「Let’s find it together!」

「I will also help」

「Un, please」

 Ra-chan and Loretta replied while being eager to help me when I told them the lamp I wanted.

 Each of them starts to look around to find a lamp for me.

 Oaken only watches over us without interrupting, perhaps he knows that we are enjoying the process of searching for the lamp that I liked. I’m grateful for his consideration.

「Alfried-sama, this lamp is beautiful」

 Lorette brought a lamp over and said that, it’s a hexagonal-shaped lamp based on red and black colors.

 Each side of the lamp is sprinkled with warm colors such as red, orange, and pink.

「It is pretty, but the color is a little strong I think」

 I’m going to gaze at the light before going to bed so I’d like to refrain from strong colors. If I had to say, I prefer lamps with soft lights.

「I see」

 After telling her the particular lamp I wanted, Loretta puts the lamp back in its place and started searching again. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

「Al, how’s this?」

 When I approached the place where Ra-chan was, there was a big, seashell-shaped lamp over there.

 The seashells are carefully separated and have a light color scheme, perhaps imitating the sea.

「Hmーm, it’s pleasant and pretty, but maybe a little too big」

「I seeー」

 It has a calm color and is pretty, but the lamp itself was quite big.

 I can’t place it at the bedside and even if I place it at the corner of my room, it’s going to give me a feeling of oppression with how big it is.

 Maybe something a little more compact might be better.

 With that in mind, I tried moving to the place where more compact lamps are placed.

 This one is very compact. They are small, ranging from ones that can fit a small table to those that fit the palm of your hand. If it’s these then it’s going to be able to be placed in my room.

 Next I just have to choose lamps that have the design and color that I liked.

「Hm? What’s this?」

 As I was searching for a small-sized lamp, a spherical lamp caught my eye.

 It has a smooth, pure white surface.

 Even though all the other lamps are design-oriented, this one has a modest feel to it.

「The lid is opened somehow」

 When I tried to take it in my hand, the lid at the top part of the spherical lamp came off.

 Trying to peer inside, it is hollow and there is a depression in the middle as if to place something there.

「Maybe, you put magic stones with attributes inside this?」

「Indeed!」

 Taking a Water attribute magic stone lying nearby, I try fitting it inside the spherical lamp.

 Channeling mana into the lamp and turning on the switch at the back of the lamp, lights were being released from the top part of the sphere, illuminating the ceiling in a light blue color.

「Ohー, it’s pretty」

 After observing it for a while, this time I try placing a Wind attribute magic stone inside and press the switch. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

 Immediately after that, a green light emitted into the ceiling.

「You can see all kinds of lights!」

「What a lovely item!」

 

You can change the magic stone inside and gaze at the light according to your mood that day.

 Isn’t this a great lamp?

 After trying out all the magic stones of, Fire, Earth, and Light attributes magic stones, Oaken - who was keeping close and standing by - walked up to me.

「Normally, the normal magic stones will emit a single color of light, but if you fit in high-quality magic stones inside, it will be able to produce more delicate light 」

 Saying that, Oaken gave me a transparent magic stone with a mix of blue and light blue colors to me.

 There is a strong mana inside the magic stone, you can see at a glance that it’s a high-quality magic stone.

 I’m afraid to ask what magic stone this is, so I just fit it into the lamp without asking anything.

 Then, a sea spread out on the ceiling.

 The blue light is so vivid that it creates an illusion of being in the sea.

 All three of us exclaimed in wonder.

「It is also possible to change the color by adjusting the mana」

 When Oaken touches the lamp and channels a stronger mana inside the lamp, the light changes to a color reminiscent of a dark, deep sea, and then a mix of strong colors like aurora. Conversely, when the mana is weakened, the color changes to that of a light sea color, like the shallow waters.

 It’s really a complex color. It probably projects such colors because it uses high-quality magic stones.

 Lying on my bed facing the ceiling while enjoying the various colors. Isn’t that nice?

「I will take this」

 Although the direction has changed from my initial plan, I think I was able to buy a lamp that perfectly suits my bedroom. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
