Recently, there were rumors in the library of the Clock Tower that someone had seen a ghost. However, no one could fully tell what the ghost looked like. They just knew that there should be two ghosts. And it was like talking to a magician.
It was like they were playing hide-and-seek. The guard magicians in the clock tower were dispatched several times but failed to catch these two ghosts. If a magician is alone in the library, then the ghosts will definitely appear and scare the magician, but also
It was just a simple prank and would not cause any real harm to the magicians. Moreover, after the manager of the clock tower learned about this incident, he just told the magicians not to pay too much attention. So over time, the magicians
I stopped caring about these two mischievous ghosts that I couldn't catch.
The magician Raymond Cole Chamonaire was recently chosen as the Clock Tower Librarian.
The mischievous ghost appeared during the period when Raymond first took office, so some magicians jokingly called him the "ghost administrator". However, Raymond did not agree with this title, although his sense of existence was indeed weak and weak.
The ghost is a bit tough, but after all, he is still a living human being, completely different from ghosts like the ghost.
"Damn it! Sooner or later I will teach you a lesson!"
Raymond, who was teased by the magicians early in the morning, came to the library angrily.
"Ah... why did it appear when I took office? You mischievous ghosts, just let me go... Sigh... you won't listen even if I say this..."
This is what Raymond always says every time he comes to the library. Unfortunately, the ghosts still keep playing pranks.
"Don't worry! We will leave in a while. There are only the last bits of the magic books here that I haven't read yet. Speaking of which, without origin-logic, it's really hard to record the contents of these magic books.
trouble."
"who?!"
Just when Raymond was lying softly on the table and sighing, a voice came from behind him. He immediately looked around cautiously.
Although Raymond is still a practicing magician, his memory is very good. He can remember the sound he heard once. And the sound just now was something he had never heard before, that is,
Said it was said by someone he didn't know.
"Hey! Raymond, help me see where the book I want to borrow is."
At this time, a magician walked into the library and asked Raymond about the location of a certain magic book.
"Oh, oh. This book is in Area B on the 3rd floor, on the 17th bookshelf."
After coming back to his senses, Raymond accurately extracted the location of the magic book from his memory.
"Thank you! Mr. Ghost Administrator!"
The other party left with a joking thank you.
"Damn! You bastard! You should really let those two ghosts give you a hard time!"
This is the so-called kindness that goes unpaid. Because it is stipulated that magic cannot be used in the library, so Raymond could only stare at the opponent's back and cursed fiercely.
"Okay! Let me give him a good treatment! Think of it as a parting gift to you, Mr. Ghost Administrator, haha~"
The previous voice came from behind Raymond again, but the content made Raymond a little confused.
"Parting gift? What do you mean?"
"Ah! Help! Don't come here! Go around me! Ah!"
Just as Raymond was thinking doubtfully, the screams of some unlucky guy came from upstairs.
"No? Is this the so-called parting gift?"
Raymond instantly identified the owner of the mournful cry, the magician who had just teased him.
"Well... I have to leave..."
While gloating about his misfortune, Raymond also felt a little lonely, because listening to the lamentations of those unlucky magicians every day was one of his few pleasures.
Three days later, the mischievous ghosts in the library of the Clock Tower completely disappeared. From then on, magicians no longer have to worry about being teased by ghosts when they go to the library alone.
The title of ghost manager also disappeared from Raymond. However, the magicians soon had a new object for fun, which was an unlucky man who was pissed in his pants by the ghosts and hung upside down from the ceiling on the third floor.
Guy.
"Ilia, why don't we stay there? It's so fun to play with those humans!"
On the way out of the clock tower, Gaia looked back three times.
"Well, pranks are indeed fun, but if you keep playing like this, it will become boring. Besides, I have collected all the contents of the magic book, and there is nothing to read when I stay there."
Illya scratched her cheek, obviously she felt no guilt for playing tricks on the magicians.
"Moreover, I also got good information there. I don't have to wait for my magic power to completely construct a body before I can have a physical form. Although I had already thought of that guy's existence, I didn't know where she lived at the beginning.
No, so I gave up. I didn’t want to spend time searching everywhere in Japan, it would be too much trouble.”
Illya's troublesome character remains unchanged.
"Well? Then where are we going next?"
Gaia tilted her head and asked Ilia about her next destination.
"Japan, Tokyo."
So, after settling in the Clock Tower Library for nearly six months, Illya and Gaia embarked on a new journey.
――――The dividing line is here――――
"Well, this is it."
In front of a dilapidated small building in Tokyo, the figures of two girls, one tall, one short, one black and one white, suddenly appeared. Fortunately, there were few pedestrians passing by here, otherwise this strange phenomenon would definitely confuse people.
His courage was shattered.
"Ilia, the person you are looking for is here?"
The shorter girl in white looked at the dilapidated building in front of her and asked the taller girl in black.
"Yes, if the information in the clock tower is correct, the office of puppet master Aang Qi Chengzi should be here."
After saying that, Ilia took Gaia's little hand, walked into the broken building, and directly opened a certain door that had not been locked all year round.
"Welcome to Cang Qi Office, I am the director Cang Qi Chengzi, what can I do for you?"
Behind a dilapidated desk not far from the door, a mature woman wearing glasses and a cigarette in her mouth was sitting lazily on a chair. Behind her stood a high school student.
A girl with a serious look.
"Here...it's really full of rags and rags everywhere..."
Ilia did not directly answer Cang Qi Chengzi's question, but after looking around, she gave an overly honest evaluation.
In response to this, Cang Qi Chengzi just raised his eyebrows, but the high school girl showed an obviously unhappy expression and was angrily preparing to question Ilia.
"What did you say……"
A hand holding a cigarette stopped the high school girl from blurting out what she was about to say.
"Well, it's because of financial constraints. So I can only make do with it."
After stopping the high school girl from speaking, Cang Qi Chengzi waved her hand indifferently and put the cigarette in her hand back into her mouth.
"Are you? Financially tight? Aren't you afraid that those guys who desperately want to give you money will cry to death when you say this?"
Regarding the tight funding mentioned by Cang Qi Chengzi, Ilia was a little bit dumbfounded.
"Well, transactions also depend on the target. Okay, let's not talk about this, what do you want to see me for?"
Cangqi Chengzi was not interested in continuing to dwell on these irrelevant issues, and directly asked Ilia about the purpose of her visit.
"Oh! I almost forgot. I'm so sorry."
Ilia covered her mouth in feigned surprise and apologized to Cang Qi Chengzi without apology. Cang Qi Chengzi thought it was nothing, but the high school girl behind her glared at Ilia very unhappily.
"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Ilia Alan Stein Trenbel. If it's too long, just call me Ilia. This is..."
As she spoke, Illya pulled Gaia beside her to her.
"Cute Gaia-chan!"
"laugh……"
Just as Cang Qi Chengzi frowned in confusion after hearing Ilia's introduction, the high school girl couldn't help but laugh.
"Ju, there is someone who can introduce people like this, the lovely Gaia..."
The high school girl originally wanted to say Gaia-chan, but at that moment an indescribably powerful aura suddenly pressed on her, causing her words to stop abruptly.
"Okay, Gaia-chan. That's it for teaching people. Don't scare her to death. I still need their help with something!"
Illya pulled Gaia into her arms, who was unleashing his fierce momentum on the high school girl.
"snort!"
After Gaia snorted coldly, she obeyed and retracted her momentum.
"I'm really sorry. This child doesn't like anyone to call her that except me."
Illya's apology still did not contain any apology.
"We've finished the introduction here, what about you? Why don't you introduce me formally?"
"...As I said at the beginning, I am Cang Qi Chengzi, the director of this firm."
Cangqi Chengzi looked at Gaia in Ilia's arms and was silent for a while, then followed Ilia's wishes and made the introduction.
"this……"
As she spoke, Cang Qi Chengzi pointed at the high school girl behind her who was holding on to the wall, her feet trembling and she was breathing heavily.
"He is my assistant, and he will always be an orange." (Little love: Sprinkle flowers~Thank you to the book friend "Old Orange or Trouble" for your friendly appearance~)
