“Can’t we disassemble it?”
Liliana asked while examining the portable game console she received from me after completing the mission.
“It’s yours now. It doesn’t matter to me even if I disassemble it. Instead, there’s a high chance that you won’t be able to play the games inside it.”
At my words, she licked her lips with regret.
“Don’t you have one more Unho?”
“There is only one and it is precious.”
Now…
Can’t tell the truth Now was the time to appeal to the preciousness of game consoles.
“Unho What are these letters? Is it text? Or is it a device for magic?”
She asked as she watched the English spoken while playing the game.
“It is language.”
“Language? I’ve never seen or heard such a text message.”
“There are also texts that you don’t know about.”
“I thought I knew… Almost every language…”
“The world is wide. It must be one of the languages you don’t know.”
“I didn’t expect to hear such a story from you… Then can’t I learn this language? If you learn this language, you will be able to better understand that this is a game machine.”
“You can learn.”
“How can I…No way…You, Unho? Do you know?”
“Okay.”
For some reason, I feel very ignored…
“I never thought that the day would come when I would learn something from you, Woon-ho. Teach me this language Don’t pay the price for that.”
The words she wanted came out of her mouth.
“It’s a price… Don’t you have any magic items that I can use?”
“As expected, do you want an artifact…”
Liliana had a confused expression, but the magic items were good.
Makes it easier to use magic.
And I have already tasted the luxury cane.
She has become a body that is not satisfied with the crappy items in the Dimensional Shop.
If you’re a wizard like Liliana, she’ll have some decent magic items.
“Hmm…Which one do you want?”
“Is there any magic item that teleports?”
“…Teleportation?”
“The teleportation you did when dealing with me.”
It was magic that could be considered the most perfect evasion technique.
“That doesn’t work.”
“What? Why not?”
“That was possible because it was my space. Teleport is a very complicated and tricky magic. Space-type magic is like that, but it is used for escaping from a crisis, and is rarely used in battle.”
“So no?”
“There is, but it’s for escape in an emergency, so it’s not something you’ll be satisfied with. Don’t you want to be able to use it in battle?”
“Yes.”
Liliana said no if she didn’t want to give it to her, but she wasn’t the type to lie.
That was the only thing I coveted while dealing with Liliana.
It is also the magic that the Marquis Wizard escaped from.
But unfortunately, that’s not the case.
“Don’t be disappointed. I will give you another artifact that you will be satisfied with.”
“What?”
“This is it.”
Liliana pulled out a small ring from subspace.
“That?”
“It’s a telekinesis ring.”
When it comes to telekinesis, it was the ability used by Jia in the zombie world.
It seemed quite comfortable when Jia used it, so it was a bit coveted ability.
“Converts mana into telekinesis. It’s inefficient, but it won’t be a problem for you. It is an artifact that is perfect for you who are rich in magical power. Above all, it may look like you are using various spells.”
“Various magic?”
“Yes, if you bind your opponent with telekinesis, it might look like hold magic.”
“Can you fly through the sky?”
“It’s possible, wizards use the magic called levitation because it’s highly efficient, but… If it’s you, there won’t be any problem. It’s inefficient, but the utilization itself is good magic.”
Thinking like that gives me goosebumps.
“…The distance?”
“It depends on the amount of magic power. Of course, the farther away it is, the more magical energy it takes.”
“Call…For now, let’s do one.”
“First?”
“…It is nothing.”
I reached for the magic ring Liliana was holding.
But she put her ring I was about to receive into her own ah space.
“What?!”
“Whoa… I’ll give this to you after I’ve learned the language.”
It was an ulterior motive to pay for what had happened before.
But unfortunately, Liliana’s ulterior motive didn’t work.
From the beginning, I had no intention of going through the trouble of teaching her her language one by one.
I bought an English language pack from the Dimensional Shop with 500 coins.
And she handed her the language pack card.
“What is it?”
“It is a magic item that learns languages.”
“Is there such a thing…?”
Liliana stared blankly into space after receiving the card I handed her.
“What? A letter pops up in front. Install language pack?”
“If you install it, you will be able to read and write the characters as well as learn and listen to the language.”
“Is that possible? Stand, install…”
She used the language pack card while being dubious. The card scattered into light and permeated her body.
“This, this?! You…What the hell…How is this possible? Did I interfere with your mind?”
Liliana seemed a little shocked.
“Looks like you finally realized the greatness of my magic…”
“This, this… Magic?…Maybe I was trapped in a stereotype.”
Liliana said with a serious face.
“Are you finally acknowledging me?”
“…You may be using a different form of magic than we do…”
Just use it
Even if you don’t understand the structure or operating principle of a smartphone, it’s the same as using it without problems.
“Then do you know how this game console works?”
“…”
“Then it is…”
Liliana’s expression as she looked at me cooled bitterly, as if it was unfair that she admired it for a moment.
Resentfully ignoring me, she went away within a few days and eventually received the scheduled punishment.

The telekinesis ring I received from Liliana after giving the language pack gave me a new inspiration.
If I had to say it, would it feel like being a real psychic?
“Ahh! That’s right! I pressed the skill!! No, potion! This guy! Ha, only one! Oh, wake up, wake up!! Unho I think I can finally defeat this boss!”
While using the ring to float the magic wand in the air and spin it around while playing, Liliana was quite noisy.
I glanced up at the game screen she was engrossed in.
The blood of the giant boss on the screen was left behind, even though it looked like he would die with just one hit.
But at that moment, the screen of the portable game console turned off.
“Uh? Uh? Aww!! You only need to hit one hit!! Unho! How the hell did this happen! The screen of the game console went off!”
Enraged, she held out the game console to me.
“Um, looks like the battery is dead.”
“A ship, a battery!?”
“It’s like a magic stone. The battery must have energy for that thing to work, but that’s all gone.”
Still, the battery lasted quite a long time, probably because it was a high-end product.
“Well, then what should I do?”
“Calm down. Because you can charge it.”
“Chu, charging?”
“If you charge the battery with electricity, you can use it again.”
“Electricity? Can I apply lightning magic?”
Lightning bounced from Liliana’s hand.
“Do not do that! Then it will break!”
She was in a hurry to pour her magic into it, so she stopped.
“What? Then what are you going to do?”
Liliana gave her menacing glances at me.
The thick dark circles on her eyes were already the eyes of a gamer.
It wasn’t just a game, but it was filled with AAA level games, so it was natural for her to become like this.
‘I think I abandoned one person…’
“Hmm, it’s not that there isn’t a way.”
“How is that! Luck!”
“There are things that can be charged. Big hum. That item is now in my inventory… Subspace.”
“Then what are you doing! Quickly take out that thing and charge my game console!”
“That thing is a bit big. The inside of the wagon is a bit small to take out here.”
“Does that mean we need to make the wagon wider?”
“Yes. And…”
“And?”
“I wish I had one more magic item…”
“What?!”
At first, she even thought about drawing and eating one magic item per charge. But even when I thought about it, it seemed like it was over the line.
With just one portable game console, she could have severely eroded her affinity for me.
Considering such a situation, I decided to treat it generously as a magic item.

“Master, we have found a good place to camp.”
Looking outside from Marie’s report, I saw an empty lot in front of me by the side of the road, made for camping.
In fact, it is said that it is a place that travelers use for camping purposes.
In the meantime, I often used it while traveling by carriage.
“Marie, let’s camp over there tonight.”
“All right. Master.”
Now, just a day or two more and it was a slumber.
Of course, I couldn’t know, and the scale of the map was messy, so I couldn’t get a sense of it, but fortunately Marie knew.
I stopped the wagon in a suitable place in the clearing.
Then, they lit a bonfire in the campground and sat around to eat.
The dinner menu was a thick meat stew and bread from a restaurant in La Venta.
“Everyone sleep outside today, so we need to increase the space inside the wagon.”
Liliana hurriedly finished her meal, got up first, and entered the carriage.
She seemed to be in a hurry because of charging the game console.
The time when everyone except Liliana was sitting around the bonfire and enjoying the feeling of fullness.
-Multiple. Multiple.
– Knocked up. Rattle.
In the gloomy darkness.
I heard the sound of a carriage approaching.
The direction of the sound was towards La Venta, where we came from.
