The price of the scroll will remain high over time, incomparable to other luxury items. If Mayke has any business sense. And, well, I didn’t mention it in the previous conversation, but there’s also the cost of the ingredients. The scroll is not just about paper and wizards.

Then Mayke opened her mouth.

“Now that I’m talking about it, although it may not be very realistic…..”

“What is it?”

I was glad to show any interest. Mayke said.

“After I build the tower…… someday. I hope there will be a great genius wizard.”

I tilted my head as I listened to Mayke.

If you’re a genius wizard, there’s one person here.

“More than Mayke?”

“Oh my.”

She looked happy. She covered her mouth, laughed, and waved her hand.

“Of course I’m a genius. Where can anyone find any genius like? I will be the greatest prodigy in the magic world and the greatest prodigy at the Empire”

I didn’t mean to say that. Anyway.

“And you want more wizards that are more genius than Mayke?”

“Yes.”

Mayke nodded without hesitation. Holding her fingers under her chin, she made a dreamy face.

“A great genius, literally. I can’t imagine it right now.”

Mayke’s eyes were dimmed as if she was a picture of the future in her head.

I suddenly remembered Gyerg.

As a half-demon, he deals as folk of magic that will help her with it. The last time I saw him, it wasn’t that hard for him to be called a prodigy in the magic world.

Should I recommend him?

As soon as I thought so, Mayke’s voice cracked the air.

“The one who can use magic easily to erase a country from the map.”

“……..?”

“The one who can use magic to cross the sea without gasping a breath.”

“…….?”

“The one who’s possible to destroy the continent if you want, so no power dares to defy him.”

“…….…??”

“That kind of genius. I hope a wizard-like that will appear and lead the tower I made someday.”

“………Oh, yes.”

I answered, trying not to show the slightest sign of showing off.

“You have big dreams, Mayke.”

“Since it’s a dream.”

“I’ll cheer for you.”

It was not long before Mayke stared at me and grinned. Even though she said it, it seemed funny.

“Well, it’s too great to become true, isn’t it?”

“Well, it doesn’t matter.”

I thought so, but I shrugged and sided.

No one could know the future. And there is a saying. The bigger the dream, the better.

“It seems difficult right now, but it may come true in a few hundred years.”

“Is that so?”

“In that sense, I will do five times as much as the original as Mayke said.”

“Oh.”

For a moment, stars popped out of Mayke’s eyes as if she had lost her words.

I smiled face to face at Mayke.

***

‘Thank you very much, Lydia.’

Mayke repeatedly thanked me with a look that she couldn’t be more grateful then left.

It wasn’t just because I promised her a huge sum of money to build a tower.

At the same time, I decided to get rid of one of the family members who recently became a headache.

“How could you do this to me? Human!”

Gyerg appeared, grunting the air.

The hallway of the mansion was very wide for Gyerg to stand alone. I walked past him and said.

“It’s a good opportunity. I’m giving you a job.”

“I don’t need a job!”

Gyerg deliberately came after me with thumping footsteps.

He is an adult man, but he acts like a five years old kid. Tsk. He didn’t stop talking back.

“No, you need it.”

“Why do I have to work? If I do that I need to stop eating and sleeping her…….”

“Who’s gonna let you keep doing that?”

“What?”

I stopped and turned my head.

I narrowed my eyes and looked at him, and it made him flinch. Like someone who’s stabbed.

I said with my arms crossed.

“How many months has it been? Are you planning to set up your own life here?”

“That’s because of my mana……….”

“I know the mana you used for Ash last time has been restored.”

“No, human, you don’t know that, but a half-demon mana isn’t that simple to recover.”

“Then, what about the mana you used to go to the dining room from your room?”

Gyerg shut his mouth for a moment. I shook my head gently.

Even right now, I still could see it. I clicked my tongue when I saw the cookie crumbs on Gyerg’s mouth.

He must have been from the dining room picking up some cookies. I can’t believe he’s using the movement magic from there to here.

“Well, that’s… The magic of short-distance travel requires less mana than it looks.”

“Stop it. It’s disgraceful.”

I cut his excuse that wouldn’t work. And that wasn’t what I really wanted to say anyway.

In fact, it didn’t really matter whether Gyerg restored all his mana and continued to live in the mansion, sleeping and eating, or not.

The important thing was this.

“And you, don’t you think I don’t know that you’ve been interrupting my time with Ash whenever you have a chance?”

“Well, that’s a mistake! It happened by accident.”

“Mistake? Aha, I guess that’s why you’re gossiping Ash to me by mistake?”

The day he followed Ash to catch a High Priest of the Temple of Love.

I don’t know why, but since that day, Gyerg suddenly went crazy, began to interfere with me and Ash’s attachment.

That’s all I’m going to say. One day, he even sneaked in and said this.

‘Are you really going to marry him? You’re going to be with that human for the rest of your life? Seriously? You’ll regret it.’

Then I hit Gyerg’s head with an empty vase. How can he tell me what to do when he doesn’t know anything.

I was thinking of reaching Ash because of that, but I held it in because I didn’t think I would let someone’s life be lost forever. but the problem is that Gyerg couldn’t wake up after that.

Gyerg’s behaviour remained intact even after his head was hit, perhaps because he quickly recovered using the healing magic.

That’s why I finally decided to kick out this annoying half-demon.

“Don’t be so mean, just follow Mayke and help her build the tower. I already promised to provide your labour to her. I can’t back off, okay?

“What if I say I can’t?”

Gyerg stood up and responded like a child. I took it lightly.

“Then you can watch me go all my ways with Ash like this.”

“No!”

Gyerg shouted urgently and grabbed my ankle and hung on.

No, this half-demon. Heavy.

“Get off.”

“Promise you won’t go tell him. Then I’ll get off. Otherwise, I will never let you go.”

“Is that a threat?”

“Well, then?”

“It’s Ash’s bedroom just around the corner. He could hear me if I yell here…….”

Gyerg flinched at my words and soon put my ankle down and backed away.

I almost laughed at the tension on his face.

Ash’s bedroom is close to here, but he won’t be in the bedroom at this hour.

“Wow, what do you want?”

“I told you. Follow Mayke and help her build the tower.”

“Seed. You’re definitely going to kick me out, aren’t you?”

Gyerg looked pretty upset. And at this point, I had a very natural question.

I asked because I got really curious while pondering.

“Don’t you have a home?”

“What?”

“Do you have any place to go, other than here?”

At first, Gyerg apparently lived here for a while to recover his mana. However, his attitude has changed since some time ago. As if he’s going to live here forever.

So he’s more suitable to be called a homeless person, not half-demon.

Gyerg faltered as if he had been attacked by a surprise attack, and then he opened his mouth.

“……it’s gone.”

“What?”

“The home is gone.”

What?

“Really?”

“Why would I lie about this?”

“Fostering compassion…….”

“No!”

Yeah, I believe you. I asked.

“What happened?”

“………do you know the demon?”

I answered right away.

“It’s you.”

“It’s not us! I’m half-demon tribe!

“Are you two different?”

“Of course we’re different! Do you think roe-deer and deer are the same?”

I thought it was similar inside, but Gyerg looks like he would throw a stone at me if I talk about the animals, so I held back talking.

“It’s very different. So what?

“……we’ve been fighting for the territory for a long time. We are different races, but we had to live under the same territorial sky.”

“So the devil has won.”

I know even if I don’t listen to it anymore. Gyerg nodded his head.

“……..right.”

“I’m sorry to hear that.”

So what happens to the rest of the half-demon tribe? Not everyone would have died in the fight.

Are they living in the human world like Gyerg? If so, I wondered if it would be easy to distinguish them.

If he just hides his horns, he will look like a human being.

While thinking about it, Gyerg said.

“Now you know why I said I lost my home?”

“Yes. Definitely.”

“Are you still going to kick me out?”

“Yep.”

“What, what?”

So you thought I’d let you? The story was a story and that was it.

And under such circumstances, following Mayke is a boon to the lonely Gyerg. There will be a new home called the Tower.

However, Gyerg was furious that he didn’t think that way.

“You devil!”

Hmm…… maybe it’s because I just heard that story, why does that sound like such a bad curse word?

I was wondering if I should argue about this, but Gyerg continued to shout.

“You’re so happy to marry a man you don’t even know! You know, the Duke has put someone to watching you!”
