All right, I need to think about something else. I have to select the magician first. I need to choose the magician who’ll become my partner after all!
From Ravel’s perspective, if there isn’t any outstanding magician, then she’s thinking of declining all of them. In other words we will be moving to the next opportunity for the selection.
“What’s your thought about this, Ravel?”
I ask Ravel about the selection of the documents we are currently doing.
Ravel makes a sour look on her cute face.
“To be honest……I’m starting to think it would be a good idea to move onto the next opportunity for the selection. Saying that, the majority of the magicians that chose Ise-sama are people that can’t get a passing mark from me. ……There are parts we can’t come to know unless we do the test which comes after selection of the documents, however judging from their experience and what kind of ability they have attained, then I don’t see any remarkable person that can live up to being a partner of the “Heavenly Dragon”, the “Sekiryuutei”.”
It’s Ravel who has researched them down to every last detail, so her ratings towards them will mostly be accurate. There’s also the side of her where she lifts me up high, however there must be aspects which only bring dissatisfaction to her if we are talking about my long-term partner.
She’s certainly right since I also looked through the documents, but there isn’t any person that actually stands out. Though there are magicians that I thought may be good or that are erotic!
Instead, if we are talking about short term (Several months to a year), then there are several of those who I think I don’t mind making a pact with. Ravel also knows about those aspects as well.
Even regarding other group members, there aren’t just a few of them that are thinking of making a short-term pact.
They must want to get familiar with it by having a short-term pact first. I have also heard that there were magicians that made a profit from a short-term pact.
“Hmm, then should we just make a short-term pact after all?”
I ask Ravel while tilting my head. Ravel doesn’t object to it strongly, and instead makes a serious face with her cute face.
“……If we make a short term pact and make a beginner's mistake since we are new to this, we may get a bad rating and have bad rumours going around in their society, so I do think that will be full of risks…… As your manager, I certainly would be sad if you don’t have a partner who will make a pact with you in your next occasion to form a pact.”
So she’s even thinking that far ahead. ……Yup, I’m scared that I might make a stupid mistake…… I’m trying to be serious regarding this issue, however if I compare myself to Rias and Kiba, then it feels like I will make more mistakes than them.
That’s part of it, but I’m starting to feel doubts about certain things. I’m thinking about asking Ravel about those things as well. Since I’m leaving most of the things to Ravel, there are still things I haven’t asked Ravel.
When both of us are thinking while saying, “Hmm……”, the door opens.
The one who enters the room is Akeno-san who came to bring us tea.
“Ara ara, are you still having your discussion?”
“Well, thank you for that—, ah!”
I get shocked at the person standing behind Akeno-san.
“Excuse me.”
It’s Sona-kaichou! Wow, this is rare!
“Kaichou! What business do you have today?”
When I ask, Kaichou lifts the edge of her glasses. Ah, Kaichou in her casual clothes looks cute. She’s wearing a light-blue coloured lace blouse and denim jeans. She is carrying a deep blue coloured coat in her hand.
Just like us, Kaichou and Akeno-san also sit on the cushion placed on top of the carpet.
“Yes, I’m thinking of discussing what we should do from now on with Akeno and everyone else. Tsubaki will also come here afterwards. I may be a hindrance to you, but please give me a bit of your time so I can talk with all of you.”
So the vice-president will also be coming here. I don’t know why, but having those from another group coming to my house sure does have a different taste to it!
《I’m also pardoning myself for being in here.》
