Chapter 499. Mage Tower Owner''s Work ⑴ It seems that the full-fledged process of handing over the Mage Tower Lord''s work has begun.


    From then on, Dia personally went to and from the Mage Tower several times to prepare.


    From what I hear, there doesn''t seem to be any problem.


    yes no problem


    i sometimes


    “Dia? Any help? Or is it that someone just doesn''t listen and opposes? Are you just beingte?”


    If there is, I''ll scold you instead!


    I can''t control my free time and every time she returns to the manor, I hover around Dia and ask.


    “it''s okay.”


    Or “No problem, don’t worry.”


    he demanded.


    No problem....


    huh. It''s good if there is no problem. If there''s nothing bothering you, you''ll be happy.


    “Yeah, no problem.” It''s not that I''m


    bored


    because I don''t have anything to do.


    Really.


    After all, I haven''t done anything either.


    It''s because I removed something like a parasite from the magic tower.


    Well, it''s something that no one knows about in the future, but it doesn''t matter.


    It was so leisurely.


    I''m so free that I''m talking to and ying with a mini c tree sapling that I recently brought to my room and improved for ornamental use.


    now you know how to do it well


    I''m bored... No, I''m sorry.


    Is it like the feeling of a parent who is disappointed with the growth of their child?


    yes? Is it a mini c tree?


    And I''m still bored.


    “Arel.”


    As soon as I came back from the Mage Tower, Dia found me.


    There is nothing to report.


    that it is


    I had some idea why she was looking for me right away.


    “I have a request I want to tell you.”


    “Please… is it?”


    heh i knew it


    Did you know that? yes! After all, I have to help!


    Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Dia is still far away. what is it I can''t help it.


    After all, you can''t do without me?


    It''s a no-brainer, but I''m sorry if you don''t rely on it too much.


    Obviously the most annoying man in the world, I decided to ept her business.


    I exhaled lightly, never wavering, and nodded.


    It is third-rate to show off here.


    “Yes, the time has finallye when you need my help.”


    “...Somehow, it seems that your eyes are shining.”


    “I took a nap.”


    Um, is it too obvious?


    Anyway, that''s it.


    What matters is what you ask for.


    “okay. What''s wrong? who doesn''t listen? Do you do the opposite? Oh, are you running out of money?”


    Just talk. let me solve everything


    I do everything except the impossible.


    That''s how I tried to listen to what Dia wanted to ask for in the almighty wish repair mode.


    But somehow Dia tilted her head.


    “...It''s not like that.”


    “huh? Isn''t it the magic tower?”


    Undoubtedly, the matter rted to the inauguration of the owner of the Mage Tower


    “This is an extremely personal request.”


    “Well, that would be fine too. So what is it?”


    I told you to listen, so don''t listen.


    And it might be better to ask for something extremely personal than a public request.


    Certainly, there is a meaning that it is a prize.


    Haven''t you been working hard?


    Enough reason to listen.


    Even though Dia decided to ask, she still hesitated a little, as if she was being shameless.


    I winked to mean okay.


    “are you okay.”


    “Then, I beg you regardless.”


    And she told me about the request.


    “....uh? really? wait for a sec?!”


    I listened without thinking too much, and at some point I opened my eyes wide and was startled.


    To put it bluntly, it''s more like a wish than a request.


    However, it is not a wish with material meaning.


    It''s the kind of thing that can''t be cut and drawn to a simple conclusion.


    “Really? I''m serious? Is that really okay?”


    I asked again.


    could it really be that?


    But Dia nodded once again, as if she had made up her mind.


    “That is enough.”


    Her will was firm.


    Then I have no reason to stop.


    Some time after Dia asked me for a favor.


    I visited a ce in Ernesia Kingdom with her.


    It''s not about business or what you do.


    It was only rted to Dia.


    “Is it really going to be like this?”


    “Enough.”


    Dia quietly shook her head once.


    The ce we visited was a certain vige in the kingdom... a ce that used to be.


    It was a ce that didn''t feel popr at all.


    How long has it been since all the residents have already disappeared?


    The houses are all ruined, and the weeds that grow haphazardly underfoot make an annoying noise whenever you walk.


    “A lot has changed.”


    Dia muttered quietly.


    “…Not in a very good direction.”


    I don''t even know what to say about that.


    This is the vige Dia used to live in.


    i.e. her hometown.


    It''s a pitiful ce that ended up like this because some damn bitch spread the gue on her technology experiment.


    Well, the culprit has already be a handful of ashes, so there is no point in swearing at him anymore.


    After thinking about what to say for a while, I decided to talk about the progress of the matter.


    “I have finished negotiating with the lord of this ce.


    There will be no procedural problems.


    So, sooner orter, we will start a major construction project.”


    Originally, this vige was thend of another lord, but through this negotiation, it was moved to our jurisdiction.


    On paper, the lord of Fahilia for 200 years. In other words, it is a contract loaned to me and my sessors.


    In the meantime, it''s up to us how we use this ce.


    It means you are free to do whatever you want to do.


    “He too was bewildered and allowed it.


    Perhaps he will never be able to understand.


    Even I thought for a moment ‘huh?'' Because I couldn''t help but be surprised.


    It was something I hadn''t even thought about in the first ce.


    “...And don''t worry about the gue.


    In the first ce, a long time has passed and all countermeasures have already been created. Residents will no longer be reluctant to stay here.”


    “This is what Arel-nim helped me with.


    I am not worried.”


    Dia speaks calmly and looks around.


    “…Is this really enough?”


    I asked again.


    What Dia asked me to do.


    It''s just that she lived in the past... to rebuild the ruined hometown again.


    But the word is reconstruction.


    After all, this is effectively a different vige.


    In the first ce, the word reconstruction itself is a contradiction. Recovery doesn''t make sense.


    This is nothing more than fixing it so that people can gather and live outside again.


    “This doesn’t change the past.”


    Dia was the first to speak.


    “No wizard can undo the past.”


    “???? Hmm.”


    “But even if I neglect it, it will only remain as a dead vige in my memory. Every time I think of this ce, it''s justplicated. In that case, wouldn''t it be better to change it?”


    To put a knot in the past and focus on the future.


    It might be some kind of ritual.


    For that reason, Dia asked me to rebuild this vige.


    After hearing her true intentions, I understood and epted her.


    “Originally, it’s something I have to do on my own. Despite my shame, I asked Arel-nim.”


    Yes, it is not simply a question of money.


    As it is a territory under the jurisdiction of another lord, there are many problems with procedures and power.


    In the end, it''s an impossible wish if I don''t use my hands.


    but.


    There is no need to ask me again for this matter.


    “Even if I hadn’t asked for it at this time…


    I would have helped.”


    Regardless of how much loss or gain there is, that much can be done enough.


    did that much work.


    If you can''t do that much, I''ll change the title from Past Life Pro to Past Life Trash.


    However, Dia refused to do so.


    “no. If you ept it without a reason and without meaning, it just doesn''t touch you.”


    “…Who says that?”


    How good is it to just receive it?


    “It’s Arel-sama.”


    It seems that he remembered what he said while shaping up one day.


    My mouth is the source of cmity.


    “But why now?”


    “There will be no time to look back after that.”


    “Ah…


    I understand. Why did she ask for this again?


    “That’s why I wanted to check it out now.”


    Dia went somewhere.


    I followed.


    In fact, she said she woulde alone, but I ended up following.


    “Here it is.”


    Dia stopped in front of a small lung.


    Then, when he carefully touches the abandoned house, the old wall crumbles with just that.


    “...This is where I lived as a child.”


    The reason she blurted out was probably that it was a ce she didn''t want to recall.


    Still, I can''t help bute here.


    Because at that time the dead could not be buried.


    All of them are burned and turned to ashes and disposed of in a ce no one knows about.


    Even the lord of this ce doesn''t remember.


    “Surviving after that day. enter the magic tower And it has reached Arel''s estate. And after a while, I will be the owner of the mage tower... It''s my job, but it''s really ridiculous.”


    “...Hey, did you say that yourself?”


    But for now, I decided not to bet on anything else.


    It''s probably her own joke.


    “You can refuse if it bothers you even now.”


    Because it was I who encouraged it.


    It''s an excuse, I''ll give it to you somehow.


    But Dia shook her head.


    “I will. The decision had already been made. but.”


    ” but?”


    “What should I do?”


    “As the owner of the Magic Tower, I am still not sure what to do.”


    It doesn''t mean that you simply don''t know how.


    There are many roads.


    There is also a way to satisfy only one''s own greed.


    Well, there''s a way to just go smoothly.


    Whether she leaves her name as a leader or ends safely in namelessness is her freedom.


    Moderate or radical, you can be anything Diaya!


    However, if you really want advice, I can give it to you.


    Yes, in my case for example.


    “Why don’t you just do whateveres to mind?”


    I always do whateveres to my mind.


    If there''s something you want, push through.


    If you think it''s wrong, hit it and break it.


    “...I know it''s irresponsible.”


    But what can I do to get back to work with that?


    What is half a joke


    It''s just a metaphor to convey the truth about not thinking too hard.


    okay. It would be better to give some good advice at this point.


    “All right.”


    “. uh?”


    But the problem is when you take it seriously.


    “As Arel said, I will do whateveres to mind.”


    “That’s right. huh. I hope it goes well.”


    what....? This isn''t it.


    Originally, I was going to say something more clever after this.


    Is that really enough?


    But since the person himself seemed to understand it, I couldn''t say much more than that.


    But what did you think, so you said you would know?


    Dia''s inauguration ceremony as the next Mage Tower owner was sessfully held.


    It was an unprecedentedly quick handoverpared to the previous Mage Master''s inauguration.


    The reason was that Helmin wanted to take over as quickly as possible.


    Because Dia also agreed to that.


    More than anything.


    ‘There is no need for trivial and cumbersome procedures.''


    It was because Dia herself was quickly preparing for the handover.


    Minor procedures and insignificant customs just showed off the atmosphere ofpletely crushing them without a change in expression.


    If you have anyints,e directly and exin the justification.


    That was what Dia meant.
