Chapter 205
We Returned to the Mansion
“Well, it’s not just magic energy, but the power of will is related too… Or so I’ve heard. But the research on that is insufficient.”
“I see… In any case, it won’t activate on living creatures unless you strongly wish for it. …That’s good…”
“And you need not fear it as a dangerous ability.”
“It’s a good thing you were able to hear all of this. If all we knew was that it could be activated on living creatures, then you might have been isolated as a person with a dangerous ability.”
Sebastian brought up the chilling possibility as I sat there with relief. But he was right. Without the whole truth, I would be judged to be a dangerous person. Someone who no one could ever touch. Someone who was separated from everyone else.
…If this was back on earth and in Japan, I might have become the subject of research.
“Thank you, Ms. Isabelle. I am now much wiser about my own ability.”
“Bah, it was nothing. I enjoy finding out how rare Gifts are used. And finding out about magic tools as well.”
“Well, thank you for everything.”
“Please bring me more magic artifacts if you find any. …You can also come just to have a cup of tea as well.”
We thanked Ms. Isabelle and left the store.
