“Kang Yoon-ah. Will you go with me? Let’s go sightseeing together. Please?”
The very next day, I tried to avoid Sophia’s gaze as she clung to my arm and gave me a desperate look.
“Grace and Eddie too. Come on, it’s just sightseeing. What’s so difficult about that. . . . . .”
This was how the incident started.
Sophia, who wanted to go to an exhibition near the hotel, had been looking for a companion since last night due to the rule that at least two people must act together.
However, starting with Adrian and Grace, everyone rejected Sophia’s request.
“I’m sorry, but I’m curious about the training ground. Once you get into something, you don’t get out of it, do you?”
“Sorry. Sophie. I’m declining too. I’m already exhausted from walking around yesterday. . . . . .”
“Ugh, you guys are the worst! I already made reservations!”
At that, the students who knew Sophia’s usual personality quickly avoided her for fear of getting caught.
In the end, the turn came to me, and that was the current situation.
“There are even some top-tier artifacts! Aren’t you interested in those? I’m really curious. Let’s go together just once. . . . . .”
Honestly, I was a little interested. In the end, I couldn’t help but accept Sophia’s request and started preparing to go out again.
“ . . .Then, I’ll go too.”
This time, it was Arietta who tagged along. She didn’t come out of the hotel yesterday, but she seemed to have changed her mind today.
So I spoke up right away.
“That’s great. Then, I’ll leave you two and. . . . . .”
“Yes. Let’s decide to go together as a group of three!”
I knew it.
Sophia was the type who liked things to be lively from birth.
Since there was no point in refusing any further, I ended up taking the subway with the two of them to the destination, Estadio Rosas Exhibition Center.
“By the way, you two knew each other?”
“Hmm. Since we’re both at the top of our grade, wouldn’t it be stranger if we didn’t?”
Somehow, despite the sudden joining, it seemed like they were close to begin with.
Well, as the two students who ranked first in their grade, they must have been called out whenever there was a school event. They must have had many opportunities to see each other.
“Sophie is a good kid. Except for the fact that she’s a bit clingy sometimes.”
No, you’re the same.
I, who was often troubled by Arietta at the academy, gave her a disapproving look as I heard those words.
While we were having such trivial small talk, we arrived at the station we were aiming for and got off the train and entered the exhibition center.
Sophia glanced at the pamphlet once and immediately handed it to Arietta, as if she couldn’t read it.
“Ugh, the words here are too difficult.”
The Interpretation spell was originally created for the purpose of communication, so it is not suitable for cases like this where translation is required.
However, Arietta read it without any problems and guided Sophia to the place she wanted.
“B-3 zone. It’s over there.”
“As expected of our senior. You’re amazing~”
When I looked at her with surprised eyes, Arietta opened her mouth with a smug look on her face for some reason.
“It’s inconvenient if you can’t read the original text. I know most of the commonly used languages.”
I sometimes forget, but these people were geniuses who couldn’t be compared to ordinary people. I realize it deeply in such aspects.
Like that, we walked around the exhibition hall following Arietta’s guidance.
I was also able to check the information of various artifacts using the emotion ability in the process, and among them, there were some that were intentionally made to be replicas, or some that had greater value than what was known.
Tring!
【DiMaggio’s Signet】
▶A signet imbued with the aura of Alaune.
The wearer receives a slight blessing of the forest and their ability scores increase slightly in related terrain.
「. . .𝙎𝙪𝙧𝙥𝙧𝙞𝙨𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙡𝙮, 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙮 𝙩𝙚𝙢𝙥𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙨.」
This kind of permanent activation artifact was also rare in the game.
At least, it shouldn’t be at a level where it could be casually placed in a corner of an exhibition like this.
「𝙒𝙚𝙡𝙡, 𝙄 𝙜𝙪𝙚𝙨𝙨 𝙞𝙩 𝙘𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙𝙣’𝙩 𝙗𝙚 𝙝𝙚𝙡𝙥𝙚𝙙 𝙨𝙞𝙣𝙘𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙚𝙢𝙤𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙖𝙗𝙞𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙮 𝙬𝙖𝙨𝙣’𝙩 𝙬𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙨𝙥𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙙 𝙗𝙖𝙘𝙠 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙣.」
However, I, who was watching it, couldn’t help but feel a sense of regret, as if I was letting a treasure rot away.
“Oh, it’s opening soon. The place with the top-tier artifact I was talking about!”
Indeed, if there were such high-quality items mixed in, then that national treasure-level artifact would be quite promising.
Feeling like a player for the first time in a long time, I headed to the opened area with the two of them, my heart pounding with excitement.
“We have kept you waiting. Guards are on standby in case of safety or accidents, so we ask that visitors please enjoy its appearance only with their eyes.”
And, I witnessed it there.
【Lantern of the Glowing Night】
▶The primordial light that illuminates the night. Only those with the qualities of a monarch can light the fire in the ring.
The equipment that was the core element of the shikigami summoner build that I personally researched when I was a ranker. The cursed tool that was like my soulmate.
