The Dwarven Kingdom is the only kingdom on the Clorius continent that focuses on developing blacksmiths and magic tool creators more than any other job. The kingdom had many talented blacksmiths and magic tool creators, one of the many creators of magic tools in the Dwarven Kingdom was Rudia.
Rudia is famous for his talent and thoroughness in creating magic tools. All the magic tools he creates are extraordinary. He once made an artifact only with an ancient note that he bought by accident and he made it without the help of others. Not long ago, he was recruited by the kingdom to work in the Magic Tools Hall. It was a paradise for magic tool creators.
Before becoming famous, Rudia worked as an ordinary magic tool creator in a shop along with other dwarves. One of them is Regza. Their relationship is so close that they consider each other as brothers even though they are not blood-related.
"Long time no see, brother!" Regza greeted Rudia who was talking to Princess Melkia.
"Ooh, who is this... Regza!" Rudia turned and saw who was calling him. When he saw that it was Regza who he had considered his little brother, he jumped for joy and gave him a big hug. The students smiled warmly at their familiarity.
"How are you brother? Ah, it seems I don't need to ask after seeing you now. Hahaha..." Regza laughed happily with their reunion. He looked for it after coming to the Dwarven Kingdom a few days ago, but he couldn't find him. Everyone he asked said they didn't know.
"You're kidding! I haven't moved here too long. How about you? Are you moving here too!?" Rudia suddenly teases him. But Regza was not angry at all because he had known him for a long time.
"You know I can't. Besides, I'm happy with my life right now." Regza looked at the academy students behind him.
"Hahaha...that's good! I was worried when you decided to go to the human region. But my worries seemed to be in vain!" Rudia patted Regza's shoulder.
"Ahem... Sir Rudia, can you postpone your reunion for later? I feel sorry for the students who waited so long because of your reunion." Princess Melkia smiled and cut off the reunion between Regza and Rudia.
"Ahaha... I'm sorry. Alright, we'll get to your activities now. Will any of you be my assistant?" Rudia asked the students behind Regza. Someone immediately raised their hand after hearing Rudia's words. That person is the most excited for the study tour today, Princess Rinne.
"I do! No, please make me your assistant for now!" Princess Rinne doesn't want to miss the opportunity to learn from one of the best magic tool creators in the Dwarven Kingdom.
"You... What's your name?" Rudia was a bit depressed with Princess Rinne who excitedly volunteered herself.
"Her name is Rinne. She is the Princess of the Cirlus Kingdom and one of the geniuses of creating magic tools in the human region." Princess Melkia introduced her proudly.
"Ooh! Then everything would be easier if accompanied by a genius. Alright, let's start the demonstration. I'll show you a magic tool creation technique that doesn't exist in the human region. I'll only do it once. You can still ask questions if you don't understand. Is it okay Princess Melkia?" Rudia looked at Princess Melkia for her approval.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Do it in moderation." Princess Melkia nodded slightly in agreement.
After that, the students were taken to another room that looked more neat and clean. There the students are shown various methods of creating magic tools that don't exist in the human region. The activity lasted a long time and ended when it was time for lunch. Princess Rinne is the only student who is the most excited and doesn't care about anything except what Rudia explains.
***
After the special class given by Rudia was over, the students were given a break until the evening because there were no more activities on their study tour schedule. The students were allowed to take a lunch break or sightsee the flower gardens around the Magic Tools Hall. They should not roam around in the tower because many places are forbidden to enter.
"You can rest and enjoy the flower garden in front of you. But remember, some flowers are poisonous so you have to be careful. You have to regroup before it's too late because we are going back to the castle. Do you understand!?" Princess Melkia said to the students in front of her. She reminded them in a slightly loud voice.
"We understand!" The students answered in unison.
"Then you can disperse and do whatever you want as long as you don't disturb the people inside the tower. Ah, if you want to have lunch. Next to the tower, there is a cafeteria, you can have lunch there. Then have a good rest." Princess Melkia left that place and returned to the tower because she had some business to do. Meanwhile, Regza continues his reunion with Rudia after all their business is done.
As planned, Hikaru and the other heroes will take the Princesses and Princes for a picnic and lunch at the flower garden.
"What about our plan?" Sintaro asked Hikaru and the other heroes.
"I have invited Princess Reina and Princess Aishia. They agreed to our plan. Meanwhile, Princess Rinne seems to have gone with Princess Melkia and she promised to follow us later." Hikaru had already discussed it with the two Princesses. As for Princess Rinne, he said it when their special class ended. But Princess Rinne already had an appointment with Princess Melkia.
"Good, now we just have to invite Princess Freya and Princess Iris. Can I ask the two of you for help?" Sintaro looked at Kyouka and Megumi. He thought it would be easier if it was a girl who invited them. Kyouka wanted to refuse, but Megumi answered him first.
"Alright! I'll invite them. Come on Kyouka!" Megumi grabbed Kyouka's hand to look for Princess Iris and Princess Freya.
"Wait..." Kyouka couldn't help but sigh and let Megumi pull her.
On the other hand, Princess Freya and the other three girls are confused about what they will do to fill their break. Lunch with other students in the cafeteria or picnic in the flower garden.
"So what are you guys going to do. Now it's time for lunch. We'd better hurry before the cafeteria gets too crowded." Princess Freya gave her suggestion to them.
"Hmm...wouldn't it be better if we waited for Ken first?" Clara is still waiting for Ziel since earlier. She looked around but still couldn't find him.
"Didn't I tell you that he left a message for me that you could have lunch first? We'd better go to the cafeteria first according to Princess Freya's suggestion." Princess Iris took the initiative to contact Ziel right after Rudia's special class was over. She didn't know why she suddenly became so bold and contacted him first. This is probably because she was infected by Princess Freya.
"But...I still don't understand. Why didn't Ken tell me directly but instead contact you?" Clara looked suspiciously at Princess Iris.
"That..." Princess Iris didn't know what to say.
"Alright that's enough, we'll miss lunchtime if we keep on chatting like this." Lilith helped Princess Iris because she was bothered by their pointless conversation.
On the other hand, Princess Freya who overheard their chat pouted because she was the only one in the place who didn't get the communication brooch. She forgot to ask Ziel that night because she was too shocked by the fact that Kalya said.
"Hey, maybe I can get a communication tool like you guys?" Princess Freya subconsciously asked them.
"Eh?" The three of them were confused by Princess Freya's sudden request. They still couldn't digest what she had said.
"Isn't that possible?" Princess Freya asked again because they didn't answer her previous question.
"Oh, it's not like that. It's just that we got it from someone, so we can't give it to you. Right, Clara?" Princess Iris knew that Princess Freya should know who gave them the brooch, but she couldn't say that in front of Clara.
"Yes. She's right." Clara gave her a small nod.
"Is that so?" Princess Freya looks disappointed after hearing their words.
"After all, what are you asking for this brooch, Princess Freya?" Lilith was curious about her true intention.
"If I told you to communicate with you, would you believe it?" Princess Freya tries to convince them. There was no way she would have told them that the real reason she wanted the brooch was out of envy.
"I see. I'll try asking Ken if he can give it to you too. But don't get your hopes up." Clara instantly believed what Princess Freya said. This made Princess Iris and Lilith sigh while shaking their heads at her overly benevolent nature.
"Thank you! I will wait for good news from you!" Princess Freya smiled widely after hearing Clara's answer. While they were chatting, Ziel came over to them. He came with Dalvin, James, and Rhea.
"My lady, what are you doing here? I thought you had lunch in the cafeteria. Didn't I tell Princess Iris?" Ziel asked Clara, then he glanced at Princess Iris for an answer.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I told her! Really! It's just that Clara wants to wait for you to have lunch together." Princess Iris frantically explained it to Ziel.
"You can't blame Iris. I was the one who asked them to wait for you." Clara quickly helped Princess Iris because she was afraid that Ziel would be angry with her.
"I don't blame her. Haa... Alright. How about we have lunch at the flower garden? I've cooked enough lunch for all of you." Ziel remembers he still has the food he cooked while trying to replicate the food from the earth.
"Really!? Let's go quickly. You guys should come with us too." Clara looks at Dalvin, James, and Rhea. She spent time with them yesterday. So Clara also considers them as her friends. The three of them looked at each other then smiled and happily agreed to Clara's invitation.
They choose a cool place with several large trees that cover them from the sun. This place was chosen by Princess Freya and Princess Iris. While they were preparing a place for them to have lunch together, someone came to greet them from behind.
"Can we join you?" Kalya and Beatrix came together to their place.
Previously Kalya asked Ziel if he had lunch or not. When Ziel replied that he would have lunch together in the flower garden, Kalya asks the place and quickly goes there. On the way she meets Beatrix who asks about Clara. So they ended up going there together.
"Auntie! Miss Kalya! Of course! Please!" Clara is happy with Beatrix's arrival and is surprised that Kalya is with her. On the other hand, Princess Freya clicked her tongue at the appearance of Kalya.
After the preparation of the venue for their lunch event is complete. Ziel took out a lot of food from inside his space storage. The 4 types of food he had made before were also there. Teriyaki, nikujaga, tempura, yakitori, and additional cheesecake and pudding.
Everyone who was there was shocked to see the food in front of them. Apart from the amount of food which was quite a lot for all of them, It was the first time they had seen all kinds of food except for kalya and the other three girls. They were happy to finally be able to taste the food again.
"Ken, what is this food?" Clara is curious about the food that is served in front of her.
"Yes. In my life, it's the first time I've seen food like this." Beatrix looked at the food one by one. Rhea, Dalvin, and James also felt the same way with them.
"This is a recipe passed down from my family. I tried to make it. Please taste it. I'm sorry if the taste doesn't suit your taste." Ziel invited them to start eating.
"Hmmm...this is so delicious!" Clara said with sparkling eyes after tasting the teriyaki.
"You're right. It suits my taste very well." Beatrix took more servings after she knew the taste of the food. After the two people tasted it, the others started to follow suit. They tasted the food one by one to know the taste. For those who are new to Ziel's cuisine, the impression they give is the same as Clara and Beatrix.
While they were enjoying the food, they were interrupted by the sound of a girl's scream.
"Where did you get all that food from!?"
