Chapter 368 - Episode Fourteen- Three Great Weapons in Fage Territory (6)

“A-, Abel …… Mea’s very happy to receive this gift from Abel, but …… am I going to carry this around with me ……?”
Mea says with a terrified look on her face as she holds the Ortem I gave her.
I gave Mea an Ortem that is a guard Ortem that keeps moving with magic stones.
While it is only capable of simple movements, it is powerful enough to work even when I’m not around.
It should be able to work as well as a dragon.
“I feel uneasy when I think about it, just in case. I should prepare at least three of them ……”
“N-No, it’s fine!? You’re going to scare the people around you! What’s the matter Abel, you’ve been a little too overprotective lately!? Abel, don’t you have other things to do!?”
“Re-, really?”
It’s not like there’s anything that needs to be prioritized right now.
Unfortunately, the weapon mounted on the magic wave tower is still incomplete, but the current plan will take too much time, so I’m going to take some time to reconsider.
There is no point in rushing to build the magic wave tower since we also need to plan the money.
In any case, no matter how hard I try, it will be over several years.
The development of magic cell phone Magiphone can be done later.
The other day, Altamir insisted that I make three of them: one for me, one for Altamir, and one for Mea.
Altamir kept calling me and Mea for fun, and when I returned the calls with a salty attitude, she would get in a very bad mood, so I had to secretly extend the block function.
Even though I had discussed it with Mea, as expected, I was the only one beaten up by Altamir while crying, so we decided to make an additional one for Peter to disperse the mental attack from Altamir.
It took a little longer than I thought, but anyway, I don’t think I’ll be spending much time on Magiphone anymore for a while.
“By the way Mea, you’re representing me in the planning meeting for the Moon Festival Dimei.”
“Yes! I’m a little tired, but Mea is doing a great job!”
“Can you pass it on to someone else?”
“Yeah ……”
“I’m going to leave the alchemists division to Altamir and Rinoa for a while, and I’m thinking of stopping development and taking a break for a while.”
“Y-, yeah ……”
I think it’s best if Mea and I don’t go our separate ways.
If I want to use someone close to me, I can push it to Artamia or Peter.
I’m sure Altamir will accept the absurdity if I just promise to expand the functionality of her Magiphone, and I’m sure Peter won’t shake his head if it involves Count Julem.
“W-What’s the matter, Abel?”
…… I wonder if I should tell Mea what Kudor told me?
Mea seemed to be traumatized by the settlement, so I thought it would be better if I just kept quiet.
However, the situation is the situation. There was no telling when Count Julem might try to contact Mea.
It could be next week, or it could be tomorrow.
If Mea is the inheritance of the sky god, it is strange that he has not come to collect it, but has left it in the Fage territory where Peter, I and Kudor are.
Mea was looking at me a little uneasily.
It seems that she was having trouble answering me, and it showed in her attitude.
But when her eyes met mine, she lost her expression and rested her head on my shoulder.
“I’m very happy that Abel is thinking about Mea. …… hehehe ……”
“………… Mea.”
As I rested Mea’s head on my shoulder and pondered what to do, I noticed footsteps approaching.
“Abel-sama, Abel-sama has a friend at ……”
It was Euris’ voice.
I’ve already heard two sets of footsteps, so it seems that they’ve made their way here.
Somewhat embarrassed, Mea blushed and hurriedly lifted her head off my shoulder, and I straightened my posture and tied my face into a knot, pretending that nothing had happened.
“Huh, Mea-chan and Abel-chan, so you are in the same room? Don’t tell me, am I in the way? Would it be better if we changed the day?”
“…… dare to say it out loud for the room to hear?”
It was a familiar, innocent soprano voice.
It was Shame, the female adventurer who had been a benefactor to Mea and me.
As I stood up, I looked at Mea for confirmation.
Mea nodded twice, looking pleased.
I walked to the door and pulled the doorknob.
“Long time no see, Shame.”
Behind Euris, I saw a lively-looking girl with a ponytail.
Shame smiled, ran past Euris, opened her arms, and jumped at me.
Then she hugged me tightly.
“Hngh! Are you well, Abel-chan?”
“H-Hey, Shame!”
I hit Shame’s back to untie her, but she didn’t budge.
This guy is strong, is she really an F-class adventurer?
“Euris-san! Don’t just smile there, please take this person off me!”
“…… Ah!”
Shame looked up and frowned as if she’d lost it.
She seemed to be looking at my back rather than at me.
I turn around slowly.
I saw Mea, who was still holding the Ortem, her body shaking with a face like she was about to cry.
Shame shakes me off and puts a hand on Mea’s shoulder.
“I’m sorry, okay? I’m really sorry! It’s not like that! It’s a common greeting among adventurers! If I’m looking for a relationship partner, I prefer someone a year older than me who is tall, has trained to a certain extent, and has a wild feeling! Okay?”
I looked at Shame, who was apologizing desperately to the downcast Mea, while Gaston’s face crossed my mind, thinking that if you said that much now, it would be as if I had nothing, and thinking that now she’s being rude to me.
