A castle entered my sights the moment we entered the underworld .
And it wasn’t a western style castle, but a towering japanese style castle that you’d expect a shogun to live in .
“It’s unexpectedly japanese . ”
“It wasn’t purposefully built this way, that castle was like that since the start . I think it’s based off the image the one who purified this place had . ”
I took a look around as Sasakursan answered the doubt I unintentionally let slip .
Other than the castle, there’s nothing else of note around, and although there’s a large plain spread out, there’s not a single person in sight .
“There’s really nothing here . Everyone who has things to do at the headquarters heads there directly .
“Aa, I see . ”
Did she sense that I was wondering about that? Sasakursan told me the reason why there weren’t any people around .
“Since the headquarters looks like that, I wonder if there are magicians that come in japanese-style clothing . ”
“It’s really not supposed to be like that, but since the headquarters looks like that, there are quite a few people that come wearing japanese-style clothing . Especially the prideful young male magicians, I think that stiff feeling is lame though . ”
“That’s harsh . By the way, how about me, do you think I’d look good in japanese-style clothing?”
Hearing Sasakursan’s harsh assessment of other magicians, I asked her .
Sasakursan who was going to answer me took a while and intently looked at me and nodded to herself while thinking about something .

“U-n, I think it would still be a while before Shinjou-kun can wear them . ”
“I see . Well it should look good on me once I grow a bit older . ”
“That’s right . Yeah, it should be like that . I’m kinda looking forward to when that time comes . ”
It seems that I’m a man that would look good in japanese clothes once I grow a little bit older .
It seems that Sasakursan is looking forward to how I’d look when that time comes .
“When that time comes…?”
“Eh… ah, that is… ehehe…”
Sasakursan didn’t seem to understand the meaning behind what she said, so I said it suggestively, her face turned red, and she tried to gloss it over .
Just that reaction is enough to make me happy .
“That was a bit sly of you . 120 points”
“Sly… what are those points for!?”
Of course, those points were for how cute Sasakursan is . The higher they are, the cuter she is, if I made the limit too high it would be hard to understand so the peak is 100 points .
However, since Sasakursan is too cute, I’m worried about how often the limit is broken through .
Well, there’s really no need to talk about this now though .
“Well then, shall we go?”

“Geez! Shinjou-kun is such an idiot!”
As a result of me casually dodging the question, Sasakursan angrily said that, and grabbed my hand .
Feeling Sasakursan’s soft and warm hands, I felt like my consciousness would fly off somewhere, she held my hand just like that while we head towards the magician league’s headquarters .
As expected, once we got closer to the castle, we started seeing silhouettes of what would seem to be magicians .
About ninety percent of them were wearing japanese clothes, and about sixty percent were young men, those young men after seeing Sasakursan showed looks of contempt and their mouths distorted into arrogant smirks .
Those guys seemed to be saying something, so I let my magic flow a bit and reinforced my hearing .
“What’s a woman doing here . ”
“Isn’t that Sasakura? This isn’t a place for women to go to . ”
“Uwa, it really is her . Rather, who’s the guy beside her? Did she trick him into empathizing with her using fake tears?”
“Wa she’s not only arrogant but also a loose woman . ”
Tto, some really disturbing stuff was entered my ears .
This group seems to have an especially dissapointing level of intelligence, I have never heard people talk badly about other people in such a stupid way before, and they’re not even trying to hide the ugly looks of contempt on their faces .
Also, there were some old men, who aged good enough for japanese clothes to look good on them, glaring at Sasakursan like they bit on a bitter bug .
I see, if you were around these people and took in gazes like this, it would only be natural to start hating magicians .
It’s incredible that you can be that cheerful being raised in this kind of environment .
“Those guys are idiots . ”
“Yeah, those guys really are . To the point that their idiocy is pitiful . ”

I was so taken aback that I involuntarily let out my thoughts and Sasakursan sighed while agreeing with me .
Sasaursan didn’t seem to mind, or rather she seemed to direct a pitying gaze at them instead .
I looked at her who was like that, she who noticed that, looked back, and let out a light laugh .
“I used to be desperate to win in the past, but now I don’t think it would be worth it to be up against those kinda guys . ”
“Hee”
“What do you mean [hee], just so you know you’re the reason I started thinking like that . ”
I absent-mindedly answered back towards those words, and she laughed and said that I was the reason for that .
“Shinjou-kun properly looked at me . Got mad at me . I got a lot of courage from that kind of Shinjou-kun”
“I, I see . ”
If you tell me that, that directly, I’ll get embarrassed .
“well , be that as it may, the piled up resentment won’t disappear just like that though . That’s why Shinjou-kun, won’t you let me use you just this once?”
“Sure . ”
I immedietly replied to Sasakursan’s words, I activated my powers, and directed them at the stupid bunch that were badmouthing Sasakursan, within an hour they will have intense diarrhea and stomach pain .
Signs of it has started to appear already, the stupid bunch’s faces changed colors, and they ran off into the headquarters .
Watching that, we head towards the headquarters .
“Eh, what, this bunch came all the way to the headquarters just to use the toilet?”
“Pfft… Shinjou-kun, that’s really underhanded…pfft…”
On the way there I passed by the stupid bunch who were struggling to get to the toilet first and were lining up on purpose, and said that out loud to Sasakursan .
Hearing our exchange, the stupid bunch glared at us while making a face mixed with anger and embarassment, but their faces immediately turn pale due to the stomach pain, and they were desperately trying to hold it back .
And after that, we ignored the bunch who were suddenly holding down there stomachs, and proceeded inside .
We finally arrived at a place that seemed like the reception area .
“Hm? It’s you? What does the trophy want with the headquarters . ”
As soon as we arrived, the receptionist said that with undisguised contempt .
As expected, it seems it’s the entire organization that looks down on Sasakursan .
However, without even faltering from that kind of attitude, Sasakursan opened her mouth .
“I am the magician, Sasakura Yumi . I came to add someone into the magician’s tournament using the special participation right . ”
“Ha? Special participation right? …Ah, that one huh, so is it this guy?”
“I told you to I’m reporting it myself . Do you want to die?”
Sasakursan said that imposingly and with confidence, and when the receptionist sent a fleeting glance my way, Sasakursan released killing intent and large amounts of magic .
At that action the receptionist that was acting arrogant a while ago, had his face turn pale, and he immediately started trying to contact someone using the telephone .
