The Neighborhood High School Girl, Miss Isezaki, Is the Great Saintess Returned from Another World~ And I, Suddenly Awakened as Her Exclusive Mana Supply Uncle, Travel Between Earth and Another World with Time-Space Magic~ - 159. Isezaki-san and Maristel

159. 159. 159. 159. Isezaki-san and Maristel

“Uncle!”

As I reached out my hand, Maristel stood in the way. Immediately after, a dazzling light enveloped the surroundings—

The next moment, I found myself not on the rooftop, but inside a large cavern where the walls eerily glowed with a bluish-white light.

Surely, this must be the “workshop” Maristel mentioned. With Maristel still holding onto my arm, I forcibly shook her off and asked her.

“Do you have the ability to use Dimensional Teleportation?”

In response to my question, Maristel glanced at her hand that I had shaken off and smirked with amusement.

“Oh? I thought you’d be cutely frightened after being abducted… but I like girls like you, you know? I’ll tell you this much as a reward for your bravery, that was a Portal Portation.”

Saying so, Maristel pointed to a strange pattern carved at her feet. It looked like some sort of magic circle unfamiliar to me.

“I mentioned before that this workshop is rich in mana, right? This is a teleportation magic that utilizes that mana. It can only be installed in places with abundant mana, and it’s not like it can jump very far. Plus, every time it’s activated, the magical instrument breaks, so it’s interesting but not that convenient. Oh well, I can’t use it for a while even though I just made it…”

Maristel sighed as she looked at the brooch on her chest. It seemed that brooch was the magical instrument.

“Hehe, after all, Dimensional Teleportation is a legendary magic that can jump anywhere without limit, right? Do you know how much vast magical power and delicate magical manipulation are required for that? Such magic only exists in fairy tales. Humans really are clueless about magic, aren’t they? Haha.”

Maristel laughed mockingly.

It’s said that demons are a race with a deeper understanding of magic than humans. Even things we don’t know about are common knowledge to demons.

But still… I didn’t know that Uncle’s Dimensional Teleportation was a legendary-level magic. As expected of Uncle! Amazing, he’s amazing!

And yet… I’m just a burden, bothering Uncle’s amazing hands. I really start to hate myself.

I thought it would be better to die than to become like this, but if I’ve been abducted, it’s too late to die now.

The strong and kind Uncle will surely come to rescue me after easily defeating the Orc King Zombie. At that time, will it be enough for me to just be rescued?… No, it’s not that I don’t long for that. But right now, it’s more important to be useful to Uncle.

What should I do for that? Fortunately, this demon—Maristel is talkative.

Earlier, she blabbered about the movements of the Digram Army, and now she’s chattering about how the Portal Portation won’t be usable for a while.

What I should do now is to extract information about the Digram Army, which should be behind Maristel, from her loose lips.

If I can obtain important information about the Digram Army, it will be easier to plan for the future, and if that happens, Uncle, who is worried about Levi like this, won’t have to risk his life for her anymore.

And then, when Uncle’s peaceful daily life returns, maybe he’ll praise me too. At that time, surely—

Uncle will gently stroke my head and ask, “Isezaki-san, no… Seina. You did really well. I have to give a reward to hardworking Seina. What do you want? Anything is fine, just say it.” Then, I’ll make a request to Uncle, of course, there’s only one thing. Uncle will smile softly at my request and say, “Haha, that’s such an easy task. Now, Seina. Close your eyes…” as he looks straight at me, gently placing his hand on my chin. While feeling his warm breath and the warmth of his hand, my heart pounding uncontrollably, I’ll lift my face slightly and gently close my eyes. And then, as the distance between us gradually narrows, Seina and Uncle will— 

“What’s wrong with you? Suddenly grinning like that… Your original face is good, so don’t make that face, okay?”

“—Huh!”

Maristel’s voice brought me back to reality. That was close, I was about to start bleeding from my nose in enemy territory.

I let out a small breath to calm myself, and decided to talk to Maristel again.
