Jikuu Mahou de Isekai to Chikyuu wo Ittarikitari

Chapter 305 - A wealthy socialite\'s resolve

「Ahh, it’s sheer bliss.」

「Giggles, Seiji-sama!」

I had Elena give me a shoulder massage while watching TV.

At any rate, it was because I worked non-stop today~.

「Onii-chan, I’m home~.」

Destroying the sweet moment between Elena and I, Aya came home.

「Ahh, onii-chan and Elena-chan are flirting!」

「What the heck! I only have her massage my shoulders.」

『Coming up next is the follow-up report of the synchronized, multiple terrorism incident.』

「Huh? You’re watching the news?」

「Yeah, today’s event is being broadcast on the special news program the entire time.」

「How did today’s anime recording turn out?」

The first thing you worry about is that, huh.

「Since the news is being broadcast all day today, it has probably taken off.」

「S-, Such a thing~.」

「Isn\'t it better than it(the recording) having an L-shaped news ticker?1」

「That’s right, but……」

Today’s event was reported on the news program repeatedly.

The news’ content is as follows:

- The terrorism happened in 3 places at the same time.

- Some of the criminals were only injured and as for the common people, there wasn’t anyone injured.2

- All criminals were arrested.

Furthermore, on the news, the [mystery] of this time’s event was reported repeatedly.

- The existence of the girl called [Angel], who appeared in the church.

- The existence of the [ninja], who appeared in the high school.

- The existence of the two karate girls, who fought against the terrorist group in front of the station.

What the, aren\'t those only us……

Since Elena healed the injured people at the church, it seems they’ve decided to say that there’s no injured people.

『To begin with, things like injury being healed by magic is impossible!』

The expert, who went on the news program, raised his voice.

『Perhaps, their strong fear towards the terrorist group becomes stress and they must’ve seen a hallucination similar to mass hypnotism.』

He’s performing considerably well, huh~.

Well, since it’s only natural for things like magic to be unbelievable, it can’t be helped if they put it in this way.

『Then, what about the ninja?』

『As for the ninja, I think it’s probably a hallucination of mass hypnotism, too.』

『The possibility of the terrorist group in the church, too, being defeated by this ninja has been pointed out, but……』

『You shouldn’t say such an absurdity, those 2 places are considerably far from each other. Are you even saying that he used teleportation?』

『I-, I know, right~. It’s impossible.』

Well, in fact, that’s what happened, though~.

『W-, Well, what about the two karate girls, who fought against the terrorist group in front of the station?』

『With regards to that, since there’s a video as a proof, it doesn’t seem to be a hallucination.』

There’s a video as a proof, huh.

It shouldn’t be a strange video, though.

『Uhh, according to the eyewitness report, the two karate girls, who appeared in front of the station……one was a college student, the other one… was seemingly at least a grade school student.』

Hmm, it seems Mai-san will be angry.

『Thinking about it logically, since there’s no way a grade school girl can fight against the terrorists, the college student probably fought alone substantially, but it\'s impossible for me to suddenly believe it.』

『With regards to this, I’ll notify you about the follow-up report as soon as the video is available.』

I’m worried……

「Onii-chan, what to do, I might become a celebrity!」

What [what to do]!

Don’t pretend to be troubled while looking glad.

「Even though you told me not to stand out……aren’t you standing out too much!?」

「I’m fine!」

This fellow is hopeless, I have to do something fast……

On that day, since I was considerably tired, I went to bed early.

When I was going to the company the next day, I was called by Nancy.

I sent the director a notification and went to Nancy’s place.

For sure, she’ll ask about Elena~.

I wonder what should I say as an excuse.

『Hey, Seiji, you came.』

『I’ve come, it was terrible yesterday, wasn’t it?』

『It was terrible, alright…that’s not it! What on Earth is Elena!?』

『Even if you say that, what do you mean what is she……』

『You managed to somehow trick the police, but are you going to keep it a secret even to us? Seiji, there’s no way you don’t know.』

Um, as expected, I can’t trick her…… it can’t be helped.

『Uhm, Elena can use magic.』

『Magic…… magic, huh~. If it’s true, it’s a laughable story, but it seems I have no choice but to believe it, huh.』

It was finally exposed.

However, Mama-san nods with uh-huh.

There’s no way, but did she perhaps know?

『Why aren’t you Mama-san surprised, Mama-san ? It’s magic, you know? Magic!』

『Because the accessories that Seiji made weren’t ordinary. I was convinced about the existence of some strange power.』

I see, she was able to guess to some extent, huh.

『But Seiji, why are you keeping Elena’s magic a secret? If there’s that power, it’s even possible to become very rich.』

『I don’t like such a thing, but if Elena personally says she would like to do so, I will help her.』

『Then, I will persuade Elena…』

『Please stop it, Nancy.』

Mama-san stopped Nancy, who was in high spirits.

『What’s wrong, Mama!? Why did you stop me?』

『Have you already forgotten about yesterday’s event? To become a wealthy socialite3, it means she needs to take on that much risk. Whether or not she has the resolution to fight against such risk, it’s not something for other people to decide, don’t you agree?』

『I understand…… but if mama and I were to get hurt, you’ll help us at a cheap price, right?』

『What are you talking about?』

『Eh? It’s no good?』

『During that time when you went to Egypt and collapsed, Elena saved you using magic, you know? There’s no reason to take money from a friend.』

『Eh!? Is that so? Come to think of it, that time……I suddenly became well.』

『Somehow or other, it seemed I’ve been saved by Elena before. Thank you.』

『Say your thanks to Elena.』

『When I meet her next time, I’ll thank her again.』

『By the way, mama-san. About this time’s matter, was Nancy?Jewelry being targeted? Is it Gold’s unjustified resentment through misunderstanding after all?』

『As one would expect of Seiji, you even know about Gold, huh. But I think that Gold isn’t the mastermind.』

『Eh?』

Gold isn’t the mastermind?

What’s going on?

『Gold merely gave money, it seems there’s a different mastermind. Since it’s an information from the diplomat, who rushed to the police station, it’s certainly reliable.』

『A diplomat?』

『Americans have been involved in a terrorism in foreign country, you know? Naturally, the American government will move, too.』

What the, it becomes a serious matter, huh……

The criminals are Chinese mafia and it seems to have developed into a diplomatic dispute involving Japan, America and China…..

What a bad premonition; a bead of sweat flowed down my forehead.
