Chapter 30.2. My Daughter's Talent

-Miu's Dad POV-

The Aburage family is an old and prestigious family, and although it's a small family, it's a prestigious maker of magic tools. They have many magic tools they inherited from the previous generation, and I'm told during my visit that they tightened their security because [Yggdrasil] had been making moves to target their magic tools.

That's why Miu's escort couldn't get close.

"There is something I want to tell you about Miu, so I would like to hear from you the other day."

"Oh ...... yuki-sama? Please wait a moment. The master is at home, so he'll take my place."

The butler, perhaps sensing something, immediately connected me to Ouga-san.

I'm gulping to keep my resolve unchanged, I clutch my phone tightly.

"Sorry to keep you waiting. It's Ouga. Takano-san, how can I help you?"

Ouga-san still has the same calm tone of voice and dignified air.

"Miu cures someone's magic disease."

"...Magic disease? Is that true?"

Ouga-san gasps at my words and asks in a surprised, and serious tone. Ouga-san himself must not have expected this. He had intended to look for a master recovery magician for Miu. But he said it was difficult because all recovery magicians get employed by other nobles. So Miu could use anything but her current recovery magic, and it was difficult for her to grow.

But she could use magic that could cure magic disease without being taught by anyone. No wonder he was surprised.

"Muu...... Miu-san may have a high talent for creating [Original Magic]."

"[Original Magic]?"

"Yes. Every magic has an origin. The first magic was spread by those who created [Original Magic]. There is still [Original Magic]. It's not uncommon for Yamiyo to create two or three [Original Magic]. Everyone has [Original Magic] as their trump card."

"It's the secret or innermost secrets of the clan, isn't it?"

Such magic existed in the Takano family. As for me, who had not awakened to mana, I don't know the details, but other families have such profound secrets too.

I'm relieved to know that it's not uncommon. That is because Miu's talent is connected to danger. It's unworthy of a parent to desire safety over their child's talent, but I did not want her to have the power to attract attention now.

But Ouga's continued words destroyed my hopes.

"That's right. But there is a problem. Most people create [Original Magic] based on their family's secrets and previous magic. However, Miu-san could create magic that can cure magic disease. But she wasn't taught by anyone. Her talent is phenomenal."

"If so, what do others think of Miu?"

"The amount of mana she has when she defeats the stone golem. And now that she could magic that can cure magic disease, she may be able to use other recovery magic. She may be able to use magic that can cure disability."

"Disability!"

It's possible. I bite my lip. Miu's the girl who could easily cure magic disease. If she could cure a disability.

"There are only 3 of them in Japan today. One is [Yggdrasil]'s founder, one is a royal family member, and the last one is a witch who wanders around Japan!"

Miu will be the 4th person to become a recovery magician who can heal disability. There must be no end to the number of people who'll obtain her at any cost.

"Teijo-san, I will accept what you told me the other day."

Then there is no longer much time left. Miu will enter the Magic Academy in the future. Miu will spread her power to the world. Even if she panics at that time, it will be too late.

Ouga-san had told me to receive my peerage from time to time.

"I understand. I will present Takano-san's knighthood to His Majesty. If it's necessary to protect a recovery magician, a viscountship would not be a problem."

"Viscount? I remember that the other day you were talking about a baron?"

"There is a possibility of Miu becoming a recovery magician who can cure disability in the future, then a viscount level is necessary. Even in the lower nobility, there's a difference between a baron and a viscount, because there's a difference between heaven and earth. If I'm a viscount, it's easy for me to get promoted to the rank of count, and it's also possible for Miu to marry a high-ranking noble."

Marriage, I'd like Miu to have a love marriage, but I'll leave that for now. I'm also planning to kick off all engagement offers.

"I'm a viscount,...... I understand. Please do."

"Leave it to me. I'll act immediately, and give you a good report the next time I see you."

"Thank you."

The conversation ends, and I hang up my phone. It's been a hell of a ride. Unlike Europe, Japanese aristocrats are not as fussy about etiquette, but there is still a lot to learn, and my position at work will probably change. Above all, I have to dive into the world of nobility, where all kinds of evil spirits of rivers and mountains swirl.

"I'm home! I bought the ingredients for the hamburger."

As I recline tiredly on a chair to rest, Miu opens the door and jumps in with a bang.

"Heh. Well then, mommy's going to make hamburgers now."

My wife, who comes in later, giggles funny and puts the shopping basket on the table.

"I'll help too!"

My daughter runs to the washstand to wash her hands. She is a kind girl, her charm heals and warms her weary heart.

I must tell my wife what Ouga-san just said.

But I smile, willing to do whatever it takes to protect this gentle home.
