It's about time we got here.

Listen to that voice and I'll wake up.

A strange woman sat in front of her as she rubbed her blurry eyes.

I feel like I don't know where I am for a moment, and I look around in a hurry.

A carriage?

Yes, I rode a Tsuji wagon.

Have you arrived yet? How long has it been since?

Looking at the sky from behind the carriage, the sun seems to have passed in the middle.

I left quite early in the morning, so it was about seven hours.

There is only a carriage that is not complimentary and luxurious, and the shaking pain is painful.

It was quite a vibration, but I fell asleep because I wasn't used to getting up early.

I hear the kid I was riding with talking about looking out the window and seeing London, and I try to get my face out the window.

Straight ahead, there was a huge gate and a fairly large city ahead.

It's huge enough to be compared to the village.

"You're kidding! This is London!"

Speaking of London of my time, it was still the size of a village.

It was convenient as a relay area for major cities, and many mercenaries stopped by on their way to various destinations to spend the night.

Soon, it became possible to trade in places other than dormitories and taverns, and it felt like an exchange, but...

The flow of time is terrible. Isn't this a completely different world?

◇ ◇ ◇

Then it shakes a little more and arrives safely in London, where it's the first time in a thousand years.

It seems more vibrant than I thought, and people are getting along quite intensely.

At that time, there were more rough people, but now it is well maintained and there are a lot of ordinary people.

It's been thousands of years, so it's made of architecture that's much more developed than my time!? I was expecting a little, but apparently not.

The same stone buildings line the road.

It's a familiar view.

When I heard Kuro's story over the last thousand years, he said that there had certainly been no major change.

Technology and culture.

There are three main reasons.

One is that war.

The land was ravaged by the beasts led by the demons, and a large number of people died.

It must have been pretty hard to get back from there.

The second is the Dark Ages. Witchcraft abolition continued for quite a long time, and until then magic, which had been responsible for many production activities, disappeared from people's lives, mostly because of the winter era.

That's right, just because the magic I've been using has suddenly stopped working one day, I can't suddenly do it all with my own manpower. At that time, I felt like I was covering a large part of it with magic equipment or a magician's substitute.

And finally, ironically, the dark age is over.

The Dark Ages came to an end when people were more fortunate to develop their civilization little by little with their own hands. However, as Cyrus had said, knowledge of magic had almost been reset.

We had to pile it up again from scratch. As a result, we had to take another step back from the path that the ancient sorcerers had piled up until our time.

It turns out that these combinations haven't changed much after a thousand years.

No, of course, it's going to be good enough for the people who live well in our time.

Hand and magic have merged to strike the right balance in this era.

The faces of the people who go to the city of London also have smiles that are unparalleled.

Even so, you can see a lot of flickering just now.

Are strangers so unusual? No, but travelers are supposed to be a land pattern that has been coming for a long time. Well, don't worry about it.

"Well, where's Cyrus?"

I take the letter I received from Cyrus out of Robe's pocket.

"I'm glad you've made up your mind, Gil. It's been five years since the earlier one... Things are changing around me. [M] Ah, don't worry, I have the same feeling of helping you. So, about the exam, was it okay the day before? I should say, I can't think of any other student coming at the edge. Oh, I'm sorry. It's not like I'm hurting you."

Damn, that's a long way to go.

Where is it? I'm sure the last person...

─ Well, let's meet once we get to London. I have a lot to give you. There is a shop on the school street called Fitz's Tavern for magicians. The inn is close, so I'll meet you there. I'll be on my way to see when the Tsuji carriage you're riding arrives. I may keep you waiting, but forgive me. I'll be waiting for you next month.

That's right, Fitz's Tavern on Gakuen Street.

I look around and find a sign.

"Er... Gakuen Street... Gakuen Street... Ah, there it is."

Looks like it's a little east of here.

There is only the name School Street, and there is a magic school in London nearby.

That means that the inn that Cyrus took for me might be a student's bread.

Ushh, let's go.

◇ ◇ ◇

As we approached the tavern, the number of student-style people increased.

There were many merchants and craftsmen in front of the gate, but not here.

There are only the names of the school streets, and there are bookstores, magic shops, and grocery stores.

When I arrived at the desired tavern, it wasn't even night yet, but it was quite busy.

Was it the sorcerers?

Perhaps there are many more magic buildings near the school.

It must be a magician's block around Rondol Magic School.

Sit back and wait under the tavern sign to make it stand out.

There aren't so many people in the streets just now, but I'm a little worried because I still feel like it's flickering here.

Do I look like a famous person?

Cyrus still has no sign of coming. Well, wait a while.

In these times, you can read the sightseeing book in London that I brought in advance.

"Hey, it's not funny!! Get off me, you idiot!

――

From the dark back street of the tavern, you can hear a woman arguing.

What are you talking about?

However, the desperation of women sounds obvious in a paranoid quarrel. This is completely attacked... Even if there are fewer Magic Beasts, will there be fewer incidents?

"Hey, hey, don't yell at me, you idiot. * giggle *, that's pretty good."

"What's so great, it's disgusting!! Just let me go!

"Ah? I'm not talking to you, damn it. Just shut up and do what I tell you. It'll be over soon."

A man's hand is grabbing the shoulders of a girl with a grip.

A blonde man with bad patterns and a red-haired ponytail girl.

The man is about to be attacked.

Bringing a woman into the dark from midday like this, what's going on with security in this city?

Give me back my previous impressions.

I gradually enter the alley.

"This is bullshit! Get your hands off me! Otherwise..."

"Or what? Kukukuku, what happened to a kid like you?"

At the moment, I grabbed the corner material that was standing on the wall and wiggled it with all my heart, hanging it on the flank of the man.

"---guhah!!

Brilliantly flanked and swallowed, the shock runs up my arm.

Come ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Don't come to my arm with a stick.

"Beep..."?

The man falls to the ground in pain.

Even though it's a poor body, you can't stand up so easily if you're caught in the act of surprise.

Suddenly the bad guy disappears from sight, and the girl looks at me alternately with the felling man with a stunned expression.

"That's my line, you piece of shit!"

The man perspires on his forehead and presses his flank, staring at me with a sharp eye.

"Pretty smooth..."
