It’s been a few days since I received the news that Yogiri was sent to this world.

“H-Hello”, Yogiri bowed as she greeted Amelia.

“You must be Yogiri. I am Amelia Watson, a detective”, she replied.

I had no problem convincing Amelia to let Yogiri live with us. According to her, my friends are her friends too and if they were in trouble, she would gladly help them.

Since Yogiri had no luggage, there was no problem in moving her things. She was just sent to this world so she had no belongings or anything. Now that I think about it, Yogiri had nothing at all.

“Umm.. Amelia? Can I ask for a favor?” I approached her.

“What’s wrong?” she asked.

“Here’s some cash”, I forked all of the money out of my wallet and handed it to her, “Can you come along with her and buy Yogiri some clothes she could wear?”

“I don’t mind. Are you okay with having me as your company, Yogiri?” Amelia turned to her.

“I’ll be glad to have you accompany me”, Yogiri said.

“Then let’s go!”

Now that was done, I had to meet up with Oga. They already finished selling all of the Nokunium and reporting that we finished the quest so I was supposed to go to the Adventurer’s Guild.

I arrived there and saw Oga and Yuzu standing around.

“Yo, Mikage!” Oga greeted me.

“Hey, Oga. So? Where’s the cash?” I went straight to the point.

He handed me a huge stack of bills. It was more than five times what I normally carry in my wallet.

“This is a lot of money”, I said.

“That’s not all. There’s around twenty more times that amount sent to your bank”, Oga said.

“T-Twenty??” I couldn’t process how much money I had right now.

“Yes. We are very rich right now. I’m going to find a good gift for my girl. See you”, Yuzu left us.

“I can live luxuriously for three months and I would still have leftover money. What are you planning to do with your money, Mikage?” Oga asked.

“I actually have no idea. This is my first time that I have this much money.”

“Oh yeah. How’s the emergency a few days ago? Did you solve it?”

“Ah.. About that...”

I told him everything about Yogiri and her circumstances.

“So she’s going to live with you and that Amelia girl, huh?”

“Yes. I was glad that Amelia let her live with us.”

“That’s cool. So? What’s your relationship with her?”

“Yogiri? She’s just my friend.”

“Really? You had a really scary expression when you learned about your emergency back when we were on our way to Westa. I assumed she was someone way more important than a friend.”

“No no. Yogiri is a friend of mine. That’s pretty much it.”

“So you prefer Amelia more?”

“Dude... She’s also another friend of mine.”

“Uh huh. She let you live with her without any questions and even helped out your friend. Nothing suspicious there.”

“I do admit that Amelia might be misunderstood if you are an outsider but I know that she’s just being my friend.”

“Alright then. I won’t ask any more questions. Oh yeah. I’ll just head over to a good restaurant and eat up. How about you?”

“I need to find other ways to get stronger. I have enough money to buy some Stored Magic but I don’t want to depend on them.”

“Hmmm... How about learning Enchantments?”

“What?”

###

Oga told me about Enchantments and I went to the library. If I wanted to learn more about it, I should read it since Enchanting was a thing that Oga didn’t want to learn.

The library was very huge and I had no idea where to start searching. I remembered one thing that Amelia did when we were trying to find information about the Hall of Memories.

I headed towards the librarian’s desk and saw a black-haired girl with a round hat. She was wearing a white uniform and had a monocle. Her name was Rosalyn and if I remember correctly, she read all the books in the library and knew them by heart.

“Oh. Hello. You’re Mikage, right? Amelia’s friend?” she smiled at me.

“Yes. Hello, Rosalyn. Can I bother you for a bit?”

“What kind of books do you need?”

“I need books that talk about Enchanting.”

She frowned.

“There are more than a hundred of books that have Enchantment in it. You might want to be a bit more specific.”

“Okay... For starters, I need books that talk about the basics of Enchantment. Also, it would be great if it involved Dark Magic.”

“Basics? Will you try to Enchant an object?”

“Yes.”

“Alright. Can you wait over there? I know at least fifteen books that fit your criteria”, she pointed at a desk and then left.

I sat down and my sword glowed. Anya appeared in her human form.

“So... You’re going to try Enchantment?” she asked.

“Yes. Have you ever done something like that?”

“That’s right. I had one master who was good at Enchantment and creating Stored Magic. Her name was Ars Almal.”

“Ah. That short girl?”

“Don’t say that in front of her or she’ll get angry. But yes. Her.”

“What do you know about Enchantments?”

“I know lots of things about it but I don’t think I can explain it to you that easily. However, I am sure that I can help you out when you’re going to Enchant an object. So try to learn as much as you can, okay?”

“Got it. It’s assuring to have an amazing sword like you.”

“Praise me more. I like it.”

Rosalyn arrived with a cart filled with books.

“There are 17 books that talked about how to Enchant an object and there are 5 books that talked about Dark Magic and Enchantments”, she said.

“You’re the librarian, right?” Anya asked.

“Do you need my assistance?”

“I need history books about things that happened in the past 4000 years.”

“Oh? The period after the Dark Times?”

“Yes. Just find the best book you can think of and I’ll be satisfied.”

“Alright then.”

“You’re going to read?” I asked.

“Hey. You’re going to stay here for some time, right? I might as well learn about important things that happened while I was sleeping.”

I turned my attention to the cart filled with books.

Alright. Time to learn how to Enchant something!
