54. The Melancholy of the Wizard




 I woke up refreshed and refreshed in the morning.
 I could smell the good smells coming from outside the room, I walked out into the living room and Emily was in the middle of putting breakfast together.

'Good morning, Yoda,'
'Good morning ......, Celeste, what's going on?'
Good morning, .......

 At the dinner table, Celeste was like a wilting flower.
 She didn't look very pale and looked like she was about to collapse.

'I think my head hurts.'
Headache? You got a cold?
No, it's a magical storm.
A magic storm is a natural phenomenon that causes the magic to go out of existence?

 Celeste nodded emphatically.

'My head is heavy and throbbing when the magic storm comes,'
Ah, ...... I get a terrible headache on a low pressure day too, so I know how you feel. Should I get some medicine or something?
"Don't worry ......, he'll be back after the magic storm.
Okay.

 Celeste said, as if it was obvious.
 If you say that much, then it must be so.
 Apparently, Celeste, a wizard, not only can't use magic when a magic storm comes, but her physical condition also becomes extremely bad.

''Well then, let's not go to the dungeon today.
No, Ryota, you and your friends can go on as usual. I'll be fine.
No, I'm getting ready to go.

 I smiled at Celeste.

"Let's go to the real estate office today.

 The search for a new house had been stretched out for some time.
 If it was a day that wasn't suitable for dungeon diving, I suggested we do that one.

     ☆

 In the morning, I raised my strength from D to C in the fourth floor of the Nifonium basement.
 I could have gone to the real estate office right after breakfast, but it would take some time for Celeste to be able to move, so I raised my abilities in the meantime.

 I made use of the porch to raise his abilities.
 Instead of knocking them down and giving them one at a time, I knocked them down and used the strength seeds that I sucked into the pouch, all together at the end.

 The brain calls for ability boosts were called in batches, and it was a continuous increase, like when I defeated a goofy metal at level 1.
 Earning in the morning felt good, brain juice in a different way.

     ☆

 After lunch, I met up with Emily and Celeste and walked around the city.
 Due to the influence of the magic storm, many wizards could be seen in the city.

 Restaurants had "Wizard Day", "10 times points for wizards to come to the store", "free for groups of wizards", etc.
 They are trying to make money on the spot.

 Celeste, one of those wizards, is still in a bit of a tough spot.

"You okay?
I'm feeling much better. I can't push myself, but I'm good enough to be normal.
Okay.
To begin with, this one isn't so hard, since I'm the one who can use magic in the city.
That wasn't too hard: ......

 There are two types of magic storms, depending on the scale: magic can't be used only in dungeons, and magic can't be used in both the city and dungeons.
 The one you can use in the city seems to be the smaller scale, both in terms of sense and Celeste's current testimony.
 Still, it seems like it's a tough one.

 After a lot of small talk, we arrive at the real estate office.
 When I walked in, I saw a familiar face.
 A soft-spoken young man - Antonio stood up and greeted us.

He said, "Hi, Satou-san, it's been a while. What's going on today?
I'm thinking of renting a new room.
Okay.

 Antonio smiled and nodded at Celeste, smiling smugly and looked at her.

'A new companion, I want a house for the three of us to live in, with her in it.
'Yes! This way, please.

 Antonio, with his smiling sales smile, showed me around and made me sit on the guest couch.
 As I settled in, Antonio asked me, "So, what kind of property are you looking for?

'So, what kind of property are you looking for?
'Three bedrooms is the minimum requirement, or at least three bedrooms.
Wouldn't it be better to have a guest room?
The drawing room.
Yeah.

 Celeste nodded and glanced at Emily.
 Emily said, "? He tilted his head slightly.

'I thought when we lived together, sometimes I'd bring someone over to show off.
I know!

 I totally agree with Celeste.

'There are times when I feel like bragging about how awesome Emily House is. I mean, there are times when I feel like if I bring in a bad guy, he'll be healed and reformed.
I'm curious what will happen if you bring a deadly monster into the house. I wonder if they'll be purified by the vibes in that temple.
It's possible.

 I nodded in agreement with Celeste and I. "No, please don't say anything strange.

No, please don't say anything strange to either of us.
No, no, no, it's not weird. Hey, Celeste.
Yes, Emily's healing is definitely the best in the world.
Shit! Both of you are full of jokes: ......

 Emily was a bit flustered, and I'm just being serious.

'By the way, what's the budget?'
300,000 a month.

 I said immediately.
 The rationale was that the last one cost 150,000 pounds, and we were going to move to double that.

"Three hundred thousand!
Is that so, Mr. Yoda?
''It's not that much. If the three of us went out and hunted the father and son slime at maximum efficiency, 120,000 piro per sortie, 300,000 is an amount of money we could earn in a day. And more importantly.

 I looked at Celeste and Emily.

I want to live in a nice place with both of you.

 I said.

 Celeste and Emily both stared back at me in surprise.
 I'm in charge of the Ryota family purse now.
 All the money from the purchase of the drops is coming in to me.
 I'm earning money, I'm earning with them.
 It's out of the question that I'm earning it and not giving it back to my friends, and that's money we earned together in the first place.

 The money we earn together is spent for everyone else.
 That's all I'm saying.

Thank you, Mr. Lyota.
Thank you.
"There's no need to thank me for that. We've all earned our money, too.

So, what do you think of the property, like this--
Ugh!

 Just as Antonio pulled out the property documents, Celeste suddenly held her head and groaned.

'What is it Celeste?'
Hey ...... my head.
Head? Was it the magic storm?
Speaking of which, the forecast said the storm was going to intensify this afternoon, making it unusable in the city.

 Antonio raised an eyebrow.
 'So that's how it happens.

'Was your customer a wizard?'
'Oh yeah ......, is there a building that doesn't make you sick when a magic storm hits?'

 A series of "Wizard's Day" services I saw in the city, and a magical storm that felt almost like a natural phenomenon - like the weather.
 Could it be? I asked hopefully.

'On a day like this, just one house, and it's out of our budget--'
Let me see that.

     ★

 Antonio took me to a house with three floors on the west side of Cyclo.
 The first floor is a parking lot for several magic carts, the second floor is a common area for the bath, kitchen and living room, and the third floor has three bedrooms.
 That's the kind of layout I'm talking about.

 It's a perfect layout, but most importantly.

"I've got a headache. ......
Really?

 Celeste entered the house and felt better as soon as she closed the door.

'Yes, I didn't know a house could have such an effect.
Are you sure you're okay?
It's amazing.

 As he said, he was feeling surprisingly well.

How do you feel?

 Antonio asked.

'Very good,'
How much is this place about?
400,000 pounds, and it has the latest magic storm blocking system, so it's 30 percent more expensive than the same floor plan.
400,000 ......
Well, you see, that's just--
I've come to the right place.

 Emily frowns, and Celeste is afraid to bow out.
 They turn to me and I make the decision.

 They are surprised. They look at me with their eyes wide open.

"It's a small price to pay for this to go away.

 Then Celeste looked at me with a twinkle in her eye.

"Thank you, Lyota, for .......

 That's how I ended up moving into this house.
 It was another step up in the ladder of housing.
