Chapter 177: Walking Ice Magic Tool?

「Al, do you have a good idea to bribe Sheila? I mean, Asmo and I are living next to each other after all. At this rate, it will only be a matter of time before neechan and Sheila meet with each other. I’ll be out after my neechan beat me up. When that happens, I will have to tell her about my dear friend Al to Eleonora-sama the moment she returns 」

Torr said with a somewhat disgusting act.

If your thought of me as your important friend, then you won’t tell on me, right. If it wasn’t because of that, then everything will be fine……

So I thought in my mind without saying it directly.

The time limit is until Ema-oneesama comes home.

It’s fine to say that Sheila-san will meet Ema-oneesama when she hung around in front of her house.

When that happens, then Torr will betray me in the future, and I’ll get beaten up by Eleonora-neesan when she returns.

……I have to immediately deal with this.

「Rather than that, give me water! Why are you not serving even a glass of water despite inviting a guest into your house!」

Just when Torr and I were talking about how to evade our sisters’ punishment, the nearby Asmo said that exasperatedly.

「The heck, we’re currently talking something important. You can get water by yourself」

「You’re making me, a guest, work!? Fine then, I’ll just ask Al to get me some water with magic!」

「Oi, Asmo. You’re saying that it’s fine to let a guest, and a noble at that, work for you?」

Shouting like that while trying to make Torr work, aren’t you just like Torr?

When I asked that and objected to his words, Asmo says without feeling ashamed,

「I mean, if we bring Al in, then Ice will come out」

「That’s true, isn’t it! When it comes to this season, Al is the person in charge of making drinks!」

Torr said something I don't understand, taking advantage of what Asmo said.

Well, I don’t like the idea of being Torr and Asmo’s servant, it’s irritating but I’m also becoming thirsty so I will prepare some drinks.

I cast Earth magic while sitting on the chair. Make three cups with just the right size, then put some ice-block with Ice magic. Then complete it by using Water magic to add water to the cups.

「Here, it’s done」

After I said that, the two of them immediately drink from the cup in silence, perhaps they were already thirsty.

I can hear them greedily swallowing the water, and after that, they vigorously slammed the cup on the table.

「Puhaa! So good! Being able to drink cold water in summer like this is happiness itself!」

「The cold water is permeating my body!」

Truly flawless behavior like a middle-aged man who drinks ale in a bar.

Oh well, cold drinks are tastier than any other in this hot season after all. It would be understandable for these two to act like that.

There’s no villager who can use Ice magic, and it’s impossible for the villagers to have high-grade Ice magic tools in the village.

I also drink from my cup while thinking about that kind of thing.

The Ice magic-chilled water enters my mouth, quenching my thirst. As I drink it all at once, it directly passed through the back of my throat and smoothly entered my stomach.

The heat from my body that was flushed by the outside sunlight and the hot weather is being chased away by the cold sensation, giving me a refreshing feeling.

「Puhaaa! So good!」

When I come to my senses, I had also slammed my cup onto the table just like the two of them before.

Does cold water feel this good if we’re in hot summer?

I don’t think it’s a bad idea to try to chill and drink the fresh spring water from the mountain the next time I climb one.

It‘s bound to be better than the previous water I made using magic.

No, it’ll definitely taste better. It was the moment when I decided it to be so.

「「Al, another one!」」

「Yes yes」

Since Torr and Asmo presented their cups to me, I also included my own cup into the mix and pour more water using Water magic to the cups.

As soon I poured the water into the cups, Torr and Asmo immediately drank it all and asked for more.

They’re very thirsty apparently.

After drinking the third cup, the two of them finally calms down as they stopped asking for more.

「Al is so convenient, I want one in my family」

「Stop with that kind of compliment will ya」

I wonder if Roomba is the first person who started saying things like that?

I feel that that kind of compliment has strangely become stuck with people.

As I’m drinking from my cup while thinking about that, Torr asks.

「Hey, Al. Can you make something like a huge Ice with magic? If so, then I think it could make this house cooler」

「Ahー, certainly. If you just place something like big ice inside, then it’s going to become cool inside」

Human is, after you satisfy one of their desire, they’ll come up with another one.

It looks like Torr and Asmo - who had their desire satisfied - wanted to have a cooler temperature.

「It is indeed hot. Then, I’ll make it cooler! But setting up some ice is not enough you know!」

Despite thinking along those lines, I feel the same as the two of them, so I immediately jumped on their suggestion.

After I got off the chair, I raise both of my arms and hold them to the air and cast Ice magic.

Then, cold air was released all over Torr’s house.

The released white, cold air spreads inside the room as if it was trying to eliminate the hot air.

「「Uoooooooohhhhhhh!? So cool!」」

Tor and Asmo shouted excitedly as they basked in the cold air.

「Amazing Al! You can even do something like this! Now you’ve been promoted from the person in charge of drinks to releasing cold air!」

I won’t be happy at all even if you praised me like that.

「He’s a walking Ice magic tool!」

Now you completely ignoring my rights as a human.

「Let’s close the door so the cold air won’t escape outside for now」

Since Torr and Asmo are really impressed by the cold air to the extent that they don’t want to move from their spot, I close the doors and windows of the house with Psychic.

Fuu, now the temperature inside won’t increase for a while.

I cast the non-attributed magic Light inside the room since it’s becoming dim, guess it’s because there is no sunlight coming in.

I only made around five balls of lights inside the room and maintained it.

「Un, now it’s as bright as daytime」

After I’m satisfied with the brightness inside the room, Torr and Asmo - who had finally calmed down - say with strange looks.

「……I’ve always wondered about it, but Al is actually quite an amazing magician, isn’t he? 」

「He doesn’t run out of magic power like us」

I heard Torr and Asmo mutter to each other while sending a questioning gaze at how did I do it.

「Hmmー, I wonder about that? It seems like my application of using magic is different from other people in general, I don’t quite understand it myself」

I know that my magic power is so large that they’re poles apart from the average person thanks to Kami-sama, but I’m not even sure how to answer if people ask me about my actual skill in using magic.

I’m better in terms of control compared with the magicians from the Silver Wind - Aleutia and Ilya -, but I don’t have experience in the fighting abilities that are required to live in this world.

To begin with, I don’t understand the value of a magician that this world needs.

If it were about making Jenga using Earth magic then I’m confident to be able to make it quickly, but it doesn’t look like it’s going to be needed.

Rather, I have no intention of contributing to the country using magic nor do I want to work hard, so there’s no need to think too much about it

I can live a rich slow life with just my current magic skill and Space magic.

That’s more than enough.

「……hey, Al. I got an idea, how about treating Sheila here to keep her mouth shut?」

「That’s not a bad idea. We got iced water and the cold air to dispel the heat. It’s quite possible to use that for a negotiation」

For Sheila-san - who’s currently suffering from the heat - it can be said that Torr house is heaven right now.

If we provide her such a comfortable place to spend her time, then even Sheila-san would probably keep silent about things, right?

「How about it Asmo?」

「……I think that’s possible since neechan is weak with the heat. But just to make sure, it might be perfect if you can also treat her to some food for the souvenirs………」

「I see! Sheila-san loves to eat after all! If things go wrong, let’s persuade her by making some food using the seasonings from the bunch of souvenirs!」

This seems like it’s going to work. The future of Torr and me are shining brightly!

Torr and I smiles at each other as our expression brightened.

「Alright, let’s invite her right away!」

「Wait up Torr! She might be wary that there’s going to be something behind it if you invite from here. Now we need to lead her to come here from the other side and then convince her」

「I see! If so, come to this window here Al!」

Torr immediately understood after hearing my idea and quickly moved toward the window-side.

That was the closest place between Torr’s house and Asmo’s house.

It was such a close distance that they can easily talk to each other if both of their house’s windows were opened.

「Can you send the cold air from the Ice magic like before from here? If you do that then the cold air should be able to enter Asmo’s house from the gap in Asmo house’s wooden window」

「As expected from Torr. The best tactician of Koryatt village」

「Hehehe, stop it. It only works due to the wise Al’s intelligence」

Torr returned the praise while being modest when I take advantage of the situation to praise him.

Torr and I got along really well at times like this.

「……the both of you are just cunning」

「「That’s rude」」
