Chapter 18

Reaction comedian master Margaret

Ah, what?

Lord Exus, are you kinder than I thought?

I, Margaret Gardner, am a female mage serving as Lord Exusโ€™s tutor.

I was threatened terribly the other day, so I was afraid that something awful would happen, but nothing in particular did.

I was just listened to.

โ€œSo, this Count of Carranheit is more concerned with preparing for the โ€˜Adon Magocracyโ€™ in the northeast rather than guarding against the monsters of the magic forest?โ€

โ€œYes, Iโ€™ve never been there myself, so I donโ€™t know, but the magical technology of the Adon Magocracy is remarkable. The Calenheit borderlands, which would be the first battlefield if we were to become hostile, are secretly preparing.โ€

โ€œI see. Do you know anything else about the Adon Magocracy?โ€

โ€œWellโ€ฆ as the name โ€˜magocracyโ€™ suggests, itโ€™s a mage-first society, and they wouldnโ€™t hesitate to commit incest to secure talented mages.โ€

โ€œHmmโ€ฆ anything else?โ€

โ€œThe culture of magical tools is advanced, and they are imported into our countryโ€ฆ and itโ€™s a very cold country, thatโ€™s allโ€ฆโ€

โ€œI see. Thank you, that was informative.โ€

Setting aside the overwhelming intelligence and knowledge that makes me doubt heโ€™s really a nine-year-old child, nothing particularly terrible happens, right?

I was prepared to be beatenโ€ฆ

At lunchtime, I was served a country-style black bread and bean soup.

It was terrible.

I shuddered at how far poverty in the countryside could go.

Even though Iโ€™m a noble, is this it?

This is it? City craftsmen eat three times better than this.

And whatโ€™s with the small amount of food for a guest?

Itโ€™s normal for a nobleโ€™s table to be filled with more food than can be eaten, assuming there will be leftovers.

Thatโ€™s how they show off, saying, โ€œI can gather more food than I can eat.โ€

The leftovers are eaten by the servants.

Itโ€™s normally a shame not to be able to feed a guest properlyโ€ฆ

On the other hand, Lord Exus gave most of his portion to his younger brother and sister and left the table early.

Lord Exus signaled me with his eyes to follow him, so I did.

Then, I was led into the forest.

There, a beautiful blonde girl, unsuitable for the countryside, was waiting.

โ€œLord Exus!โ€

When the girl saw Lord Exus, she hugged him with a smile.

Is she his loverโ€ฆ?

โ€œNot particularly.โ€

โ€œWhat?!โ€

Stop reading my mind!

โ€œThis is Ada, the bakerโ€™s daughter. She has a talent for magic, so Iโ€™m teaching her various things.โ€

I see, sheโ€™s his apprentice.

โ€œSo, why are we in the forestโ€ฆ?โ€

โ€œWellโ€ฆ first, I want to apologize.โ€

โ€œEh?โ€

โ€œAbout the meal. Nobles are obligated to entertain guests, right?โ€

โ€œEhโ€ฆ yes, well, yes. Normally, itโ€™s unthinkable to let a guest go hungry, yes.โ€

โ€œI thought so! Teach me about that culture too.โ€

โ€œYes, yes.โ€

โ€œAnd, well, what. I was thinking of preparing the meal myself.โ€

โ€œโ€ฆEh?โ€

In the forest?

A meal?

Sure, thereโ€™s a small stone oven and a tentโ€ฆ

โ€ฆBut whereโ€™s the food?

โ€œJust waitโ€ฆ โ€˜Unzip File [Fermented Bread Starter]โ€™โ€

Suddenly, a bread starter appeared in front of Lord Exus.

โ€œWhat, whatโ€ฆ?!โ€

โ€œAda, bake this.โ€

โ€œOkay!โ€

โ€œAlrightโ€ฆ โ€˜Unzip File [Stew Vegetables] [Broccoli] [Chicken Breast] [White Wine] [Consommรฉ Powder] [Flour] [Milk]โ€™โ€

Ingredients lined up on the stone cooking counter in front of me.

โ€œHey, can you drink milk?โ€

โ€œHuhโ€ฆ? Oh, yes, I can.โ€

โ€œGood. โ€˜Auto-Cooking Runโ€™โ€

Then, the ingredients moved on their own and started cooking automaticallyโ€ฆ

And after a quarter of an hourโ€ฆ

โ€œItโ€™s ready!โ€

โ€œEh?!โ€

A mysterious womanโ€™s voice echoed from the void.

โ€œOh, itโ€™s ready. Letโ€™s eat.โ€

โ€œEh, what was that just now?! And more importantly, thisโ€ฆ what is this?!โ€

โ€œWhatโ€ฆ? If you ask me, itโ€™s magic. The voice is an electronic voiceโ€ฆ no, Iโ€™m not using electronics, am I? What should I call that?โ€

โ€œMagic?!! How?!!โ€

This is already in the realm of divine miracles or fairy secret arts!!!

โ€œEh? Oh, thatโ€™s strangeโ€ฆ Well, letโ€™s talk about that later. For now, letโ€™s eat.โ€

What was handed to me was white bread made of wheat and a white stew with unfamiliar vegetables.

โ€œYay! Milk stew!โ€

Ada, the girl, happily slurped the stew.

Well, since Lord Exusโ€™s apprentice is eating it, it must not be poisonedโ€ฆ

I took a spoonful.

โ€œโ€ฆMmm! Delicious!โ€

Iโ€™ve never seen a stew made with milk before, but itโ€™s so delicious!

The thick, sweet, and mellow soup clings to the soft vegetables, and itโ€™s very tasty!

The soup is infused with the scent of vegetables and the fat of chicken meat, spreading softly in my mouthโ€ฆ!

This white bread is amazing too!

Itโ€™s fluffy like a cloud and chewy like a babyโ€™s skinโ€ฆ!

I ended up eating it all at once.

โ€œโ€ฆTeacher, thereโ€™s more if you want?โ€

โ€œAhโ€ฆ thank youโ€ฆโ€

Oh, Iโ€™ve done something unladylikeโ€ฆ

โ€œSo, isnโ€™t this what magic is like?โ€

โ€œNot at all.โ€

โ€œCanโ€™t you do it?โ€

โ€œI canโ€™t.โ€

Hmmmm!

What is this?!

Whatโ€™s going on?!

Turn my common-sense upside down!

What about the theory of the four major elements of magic? The incantations?!

My common sense!!!

โ€œHuh, so thatโ€™s how it is. So, this is heresy.โ€

โ€œYes! Itโ€™s heresy!โ€

I taught him earnestly about the basics of magic.

Magic is divided into four major elements, and you can only use one of them.

Itโ€™s mostly for fighting, and thereโ€™s definitely no magic for cooking.

Thereโ€™s no magic to store things in the voidโ€ฆ

โ€œโ€ฆCould it be that mages arenโ€™t that great?โ€

โ€œThat isโ€ฆโ€

โ€œIsnโ€™t there any great magic?โ€

โ€œThere isnโ€™tโ€ฆโ€

โ€œSo, for exampleโ€ฆ collapsing space itself?โ€

โ€œSpaceโ€ฆ collapse, you say?โ€

How do you do that? Split the earth?

โ€œOr rewinding time?โ€

โ€œTimeโ€ฆ? Not even a god can do that.โ€

First of all, how can you think of such a presumptuous idea to control time, an absolute law?!

โ€œOr extracting only the heart of a living creature?โ€

โ€œScaryโ€ฆโ€

Thatโ€™sโ€ฆ creepy?! What kind of thinking is that?!

โ€œHmmmm, then, what about dropping a meteorite?โ€

โ€œโ€ฆWhat did you say?โ€

Could it beโ€ฆ why would you think of that?!

โ€œHuh? Is there such magic? To drop a meteorite?โ€

โ€œโ€ฆThere is. A forbidden spell, โ€˜Meteor Swarm.โ€™ Why do you know about it?โ€

โ€œNo, Iโ€™m just guessing. Whatโ€™s a forbidden spell?โ€

I donโ€™t understandโ€ฆ does a demon live inside this personโ€™s headโ€ฆ?

A story in which the heroine begs for the enemy's life

Reincarnated into another world! A programmer who died on Earth wakes up to find himself a baby in a fantasy world! Though it may seem like a fantasy world, magic is processed in a computer-program-like manner for some reason! Being an Earth programmer, he can manipulate spells to wield powerful magic! It's cheating! Totally OP! I see, it's a common setup. ...But there's one problem. This guy is fatally unsuited to be the protagonist.
