Alice Get to Know Home

.

「You’re in a lot of trouble, aren’t you? Hey, Alice, if you demand an apology, why don’t you ask her to teach us about the area and stuff. There’s a lot we don’t know, so it’s perfect」.

I see, that’s a good idea.

She can be our guide to Riade and our tour guide in this world.

「Oh, that sounds great. Can you do that? 」

「Hmm, if that’s the case, it’s a small price to pay. It is already late night so I’ll take you to the village first」

The village is probably the one mentioned before.

Captain Sophia is going to take us there.

However, Edilua and Hedera looked at me strangely when they heard this.

「We don’t have to go to the village, we can just stay here. …. Ah, humans have to sleep at night, don’t they?」

「What an inconvenience, humans are. 」

Well, we don’t sleep, do we?

I mean, as vampires, me and Hedera are, if anything, nocturnal.

We’re just a little bit better at night.

However, although it was good to go to the village, there was one factor that made me uneasy.

「If schwartz go to the village… Is it safe to take this cockatrice there? Wouldn’t the villagers be scared? 」

「Actually, I’ve been wondering about this…. This cockatrice, is it your tamed servant? It seems that she is very fond of you from what I can see. ….」

「Oh, by the way, was this cockatrice that the captains were looking for? We caught it earlier and made it Hedera’s familiar …. Is that bad?」

「You caught it ….? familiar? …. I don’t know what you mean, but you just tamed a cockatrice, a mutant that I have never seen before …. You must be one amazingly skilled tamer」

「I don’t know what kind of taming you are referring to, but right now you’re referring to my little pet, her name is Schwartz-chan, and I won’t give her to anyone because she was made as familiar by the order of Alice-sama」

Hedera seems to like this cockatrice a lot.

「No, we have no problem with it if it has become your familiar. Fortunately, the cockatrice has only been seen and no damage has been reported. …. However, it would be best not to take the cockatrice to the village. Even though it is a familiar, cockatrice is an A-ranked demon. The villagers may panic and you may get into some trouble. At the very least, it’s sure to cause an uproar.」

What’s wrong with that?

What’s the problem with a chicken? Oh maybe, it’s because it’s so big.

It maybe destroy a house if it got out of control.

God also said that demons are the enemies of humanity.

「Human beings are so troublesome. What’s wrong with just a big chicken?」

「I agree with you, She’s so cute afterall.」

「Should I create a different space then? 」.

I think that’s the quickest way to solve the problem.

If you want, you can catch any animal you find and put it in there with you, and you won’t have to worry about feeding it.

「How about building a house here anyway? If you leave it to me, I will prepare a mansion suitable for Alice-sama in a few minutes.」

Hedera suggested something like that while I was wondering if there were any rabbits around that she(schwartz) liked to eat.

Build a house here.

A house. …..

I don’t need a mansion, but I might need a house.

If we use earth magic or something, it will be easy to build.

What’s more, with earth magic, you can process soil, sand, and rock at will. It turns out that you can extract minerals from a lump of rock, or make something like a brick in an instant.

I don’t have to tell you since I have the highest (Lv.) of primordial magic.

Hedera also has earth magic (Lv. 9), so she can probably build a stone house without any trouble.

It’s the world of magic.

It’s so easy to build your dream home.

There must be no carpenter-san in this world.

「That’s sounds good! It would only take about an hour to fly to the city from here, and if Alice could create a gate to the city using space-time magic, we could go back and forth between home and the city every day without any trouble. It’s nice to have a base where you can relax.」

Yes, space-time magic can do that too. It’s too convenient.

We can build a house and listen to Captain Sophia talk about the world.

Then, we can build something like a chicken house nearby for Schwartz to stay in.

Two birds with one stone.

「Good idea, a house. Let’s do that.」

I would probably also try to make some furniture. Maybe a bed.

But I can’t make a bed with earth magic, It’d be like a stone platform.

How about creating such a magic by a one-time use magic creation?

A magic that makes furniture.

Wouldn’t that be a waste?

My skill, 「Magic Creation」allows me to create new magic only once.

Something like「I’ll grant only one your wish」 and 「then I want all of my wish to be granted」, if possible I wanted to do something like that, but it was not possible to create 「a magic that allowed the creation of any number of new magic at will」

I know it’s everyone’s dream and romance once and for all, I can understand that.

I think that God is pretty cunning to give me that kind of skill.

「E, Excuse me, …. What on earth are you doing? 」

In the midst of all this, Captain Sophia, who had been left out of the mosquito net alone, asked me in a puzzled tone.

We’re going to build a house.

Earth magic, don’t you know?

「We’re building a house. Why don’t the soldiers go back to the village? Or will they stay here? Honestly, it’s kind of annoying.」

「…. A house? Here? Now? 」

「That’s right. Could you please tell your soldiers to go somewhere else since they are in the way? I’m going to uproot all the soil in this area once, if you guys stay there, I believe you’ll fall into the hole and die !」

Both Edilua and Hedera were blatantly harsh with Captain Sophia’s men.

They must have been so angry.

After all, these were the people who had tried to kill us, so it was hard to understand how they felt.

「? Mm. …. ah, yeah. I don’t know what’s going on, but I’m going to go report cockatrice and tell everyone to go back to Riade.」

I’m sorry, but we need your patience a bit.

Then Captain Sophia ran back to her soldiers, talked to a few of them, and told them all to return to the city. Then the armored soldiers turned back the way they came, carrying the bodies of their comrades with them.

It was somewhat disheartening.
