Endless Silver Machine

——If she wants to use me here, you must be mentally prepared to never come back. Hitomi didn't seem to want to say anything, and she probably didn't dare to be in the limelight, so I spoke on their behalf. After all, the current situation is not that optimistic. Although it is not to the extent that if you make one wrong move and lose everything, it will still have a very negative impact on you. But, even if I say so much now, you will forget about seven or eight points. Oops, it seems Hitomi discovered it, so let’s say goodbye here. By the way, please pay more attention to her affairs. She is a very troublesome child.

It seems... I had such a dream.

…………

Staying overnight in the castle and being woken up by the maid's soft voice in the morning was how Aika should have felt.

"Get up - get up!"

But he was not treated as gently as he had imagined. Aika didn't even see clearly who was breaking the morning tranquility. Her stomach was pressed violently through the blanket. It was probably the person who had just yelled and made a fuss.

"what……"

My eyes slowly adapted to the light. The curtains on the floor-to-ceiling windows of the room were not opened. The room was slightly dark, but it was enough to recognize the things in front of me. The man who had just left this room a few hours ago was now looking down at him with a condescending gaze, stepping hard on his stomach with one foot, and deliberately increasing the force.

"Don't stay in bed here. The maids were still worried just now. They came to wake you up according to Her Royal Highness the Princess's instructions, but you didn't respond no matter how hard you knocked on the door, so I came to wake you up instead of the maids. "

Ling was still wearing the same fluttery nightgown she wore when going to bed, and the result was clear to Aika in every way.

"Then please use the same method as the maid..."

"Huh? Is it really better to wear a maid uniform? I originally thought you were a pretty good person..."

Ling's cheeks turned slightly red, she bit her fingers and turned away.

"I meant for you to be gentle! And you have never thought about it that way once!"

"Isn't this quite energetic?" Her shy look was indeed an act, "Okay, okay, get up quickly, I'll be waiting for you alone."

Ling simply removed her bare feet and walked off Aika's bed.

"I'm going back to change clothes too. If you're ready, just wait outside the corridor for a while."

"Um."

After being tortured like this by Ling, Aika couldn't sleep even if she closed her eyes. Speaking of which, now he realized that his heart was beating very fast, and he didn't feel nervous just now.

"Speaking of which, can the spare key to the guest room be borrowed so conveniently..."

No one answered his question. Aika lifted the blanket and got out of bed.

Strange dream... I remember the other party said at the end that she would forget this dream, but Aika still clearly remembers every word she said. From a common sense point of view, the content of dreams has no actual basis and is like a product of fantasy. But the other party's words were like a seedling, deeply rooted in Aika's heart.

Who is the other party? "who is she? "Use" what?

I repeated those words in my mind several times, but Aika still couldn't understand them.

"I thought you would come out earlier than us, but we ended up waiting for you here."

Get ready to go out. Three girls and a maid leading the way are already waiting outside the door.

"Brother, didn't you look in the mirror when you came out..."

Luoluo stepped forward, waved to Aika, motioned for him to squat down, and then helped him tie his tie again.

"Thinking about a few things."

Under the leadership of the maid, everyone began to move to the restaurant.

"I had a strange dream."

"Isn't dreaming a common thing?"

"Hmm... I'm just a little concerned. Speaking of which, do you have any plans for today?"

"It depends on Her Royal Highness the Princess's arrangements. It should be a visit to Augustus or something like that."

Aika had gone shopping with Ling several times before, so she knew that she was actually very interested in such activities.

"Where are Luoluo and Wei Xi?"

"I also want to see what's in the center of the Bis Empire."

"I've only lived here in Fort Augustus..."

In this case, everyone's plans will basically be confirmed.

…………

As expected, everyone can visit Augustus freely in a few days, and all expenses will be borne by Lan Ming. Originally, Augustburg could also provide transportation, but none of the four had learned driving skills, so they had to give up unfortunately.

"The shops in Augustene mainly deal in... in your words, luxury goods. There are also many natural scenic spots here, which are the first choice for visiting. There are also art galleries, concert halls, opera houses, etc. If you are interested, you can check it out.”

Lan Ming briefly introduced August to everyone.

"Because I still have some matters to deal with, I can't go with you. As an alternative, I will let Angelina be your tour guide."

"Angelina?"

Aika couldn't remember who the name referred to.

"Haha, actually you have met many times."

Following Lan Ming's gaze, the maid was waiting silently some distance away from the dining table. Noticing Aika's gaze, the maid nodded slightly to him.

"That's it, Angelina, they're leaving it to you to take care of them today."

"Yes. Then I'll go ahead and start the preparations."

Miss Angelina, the head maid, bowed to Her Royal Highness the Princess again, and then quietly exited the restaurant without making a single noise.

"Actually, for your safety, I am going to let Charlotte go with me, but she insists on not leaving my side. Although Angelina is not a knight, her strength is very close to Charlotte. However, there should be no need to take action. The situation is that the public security in August is very stable."

In this way, under the leadership of Miss Angelina, who took off her maid uniform and dressed in casual clothes, everyone arrived at the commercial building that was rumored to house all kinds of luxury goods.

Jewelry inlaid with onyx and gemstones, perfumes and cosmetics sparkling under the display lights, mellow aged red wine in glass cabinets... all of them are marked with figures that are astronomical to Aika and the others.

A black pen displayed outside attracted Aika's attention. From the appearance, it was very simple in appearance, no different from the pens sold in ordinary stores, and it did not have a specific price like the products at other counters.

"Miss Angelina, is there anything special about that pen..."

Aika quietly asked Miss Angelina beside her.

"Mr. Aika, please take a closer look at the pen body."

Not understanding what Miss Angelina had planned, Aika could only follow her instructions and look at the dark gray painted pen body again. The stage rotates slowly, and the pen body flashes a little light from time to time under the display lights shining from four directions.

Does the surface of the pen body have an uneven design...

"Have you noticed, Mr. Aika? This pen is designed by Master Aurora. The pen body is completely polished with black diamonds, and it is said that every edge and corner is polished by her herself. The pen tip is made of platinum. It is also engraved with the name of Master Aurora and the date of completion. It is the only pen in the whole continent. It has no clear price because no one will buy it. Master Aurora does not allow this pen to be sold. Now It’s just stored in August’s commercial building as a display piece.”

"Is Master Aurora the designer of this pen?"

Lolo noticed the conversation between Aika and Angelina and overheard some of the content.

"Yes, Aurora Tila's job is the national magician of the Bis Empire, and design is just her hobby. But now, the title of famous designer is more widely known than the former."

"So she is the state magician?"

"The national magician is also a designer..."

There may be many possibilities for a person's development, but there are very few people who can realize these possibilities. Aurora Tila can develop her identity as a designer to such an extent that she can exhibit her works in August. Sure enough, the main reason is because of her interest? Just like Luoluo said, I did it because I was interested.
