Marie and her group decided to head to the mysterious Horai Mountain, which had suddenly appeared in the Empire.
Their official mission was to investigate the disappearance of citizens of the Empire who had gone to Horai Mountain and never returned.
ㅤ
However, the real reason they were going was to use the delicious fruits found on Horai Mountain to make desserts.
ㅤ
『Is it really safe to go to a legendary island inhabited by Sages without any plan?』
“Good point. We already know people have gone missing there. . . . . .How much do you know about the Sages, Witch-sama?”
ㅤ
Marie paused before speaking.
ㅤ
“I don’t know that much. I’ve only read about them in books. My memory from before my reincarnation is a bit fuzzy.”
“Books? Where could one find such information on this mythical existence?”
“The Forbidden Library.”
『The what now?』
ㅤ
Not recognizing the name, Ose and the imperial family tilted their heads.
ㅤ
“It’s a mysterious library where all the wisdom of this planet is gathered.”
『Where the heck is that?』
“In the Realm of Manifestation.”
『You actually went there?』
“Apparently, any wise individual chosen by the goddess can enter.”
『W, Wise individual?』
ㅤ
That was not a term one would normally associate with Marie.
Seemingly displeased, Marie activated her magic.
ㅤ
『Aaargh!』
ㅤ
Ose was crushed by her wind magic.
ㅤ
“Is it true that in that Forbidden Library, there is a book containing information about Horai Mountain that Lady Witch once read?”
ㅤ
Emperor Caliburn asked Marie.
Marie, with a slight cough, nodded and replied.
ㅤ
“I believe there was also a map.”
“! That would certainly be useful to have! We don’t know what to expect, after all.”
ㅤ
As Kaito said, it was necessary to gather some information before going to an unknown place.
ㅤ
“Alright, let’s visit the Forbidden Library before we head to Horai Mountain and gather information from ‘that person.’”
“That person?”
“The Guardian of the Forbidden Library.”
ㅤ
Guardian.
In other words, someone exists to protect the forbidden books.
ㅤ
“Let’s go right away, then.”
“May I also accompany you?”
ㅤ
Caliburn’s daughter, Princess Riara, raised her hand.
ㅤ
“Many of my subordinates have still not returned from Horai Mountain. I would like to go help them!”
『But will your father allow it? You are the emperor’s daughter, after all. Will he let you go?』
ㅤ
As Ose pointed out, was it really okay to take the princess to such a dangerous place?
Riara bowed her head to her father.
ㅤ
“Please, Father!”
“. . . . . .No.”
ㅤ
Riara’s shoulders slumped.
ㅤ
“However, if you go not as Princess Riara De Madukas, but as individual Riara, then it’s your own choice.”
“! Father…! Does that mean…?”
ㅤ
Caliburn smiled and patted her head.
ㅤ
“Go.”
“Yes!”
ㅤ
Meanwhile, Marie didn’t care one way or another about the increasing number of companions.
The only thing she was interested in was eating.
ㅤ
As long as her share of the food wasn’t reduced, she didn’t care.
ㅤ
“Let’s get going to the Forbidden Library.”
