It had been about a week since he had gotten the phoenix tail feathers. As he worked on the paperwork, Leolde sometimes found himself thinking absentmindedly.

(I got the phoenix tail feather, but I can't be sure it's the real thing, so I can't feel safe after all. ......)

 He  wanted to go crazy with the idea that  he could get a revival item and avoid a future of death, but it turned out to be ambiguous and  he  couldn't feel safe. So,  he  have to continue to work hard to avoid the death as before.

(Not that I'm going to start over ......, but I have to come up with new countermeasures.)

 Leolde still has to explore all possibilities to avoid the future of death. At any rate, he will surely die. No matter how unreasonable it is.  If that's the case, he can't just give up here.

 After finishing his paperwork, he headed to the car manufacturing factory to relax.

 The car manufacturing was now under Marco's control , and all that was left was to improve its durability. The performance test confirmed that the car could go over a hundred kilometers per hour. However, because of the short mileage, they could not  use it as a product yet.

 Their goal for the future is to achieve a mileage of 10,000 kilometers. At the very least,  they will have to get it to run that far. Safety and durability are essential to establish it as a new method of transportation instead of a horse-drawn carriage.

(When the car is completed, I'll probably build a motorcycle for personal use.)

 Leolde, who was still thinking about the completion of the project, showed up at the factory and had a short chat with the workers, including Marco, before leaving the factory.

 Next, he went to the orphanage that was under construction. It was Leolde  who came up with the idea, but considering the amount of work Leolde  had to do, he couldn't leave it to him, so he gathered earth magic users from the royal capital and left it to Sasha, who came up with the design of the orphanage.

 Leolde went to the site to see how much work had been done. The orphanage was not yet finished, but under Sasha's supervision, the work was progressing smoothly. Satisfied that it would be completed soon, Leolde left .

 Finally,  he arrived at the  place where  he  was currently organizing the plots. As the number of immigrants in Ze'at is increasing little by little, he need to increase the number of residential areas. This is why  he  is giving top priority to   that project.

 The work that would normally take years to complete can be finished quickly with the use of magic. However, it only takes a moment to clear the land, but it takes time to build a  houses . Based on Sasha's design, the workers are carefully making the buildings one by one, but it's hard work because of the precision.

 Even so, they are working very hard to make it good, which is a big help to Leolde. Besides, most of the workers want to move to Ze'at. So it was only natural that they would put a lot of effort into it.  He was really looking forward to the completion of this project.

 After taking a break to look around the various places , Leolde returned to the mansion. With a wry smile on his face, he picks up the documents that had accumulated before he knew it. Isabelle made him a cup of tea and he slowly put the papers away.

 That night, Leolde and Charlotte had used transfer magic to come to a forest far away from Ze'at. As usual, they were training in magic.

"Come on, any time you want~"

"Let's go!"

 There was no signal to start, but Charlotte beckoned for them to begin. Leorde unleashes her magic at Charlotte without any mercy.

"Lightning!

 A single ray of light falls from the sky towards Charlotte, but it is blocked by a barrier and scatters. 

"Damn!"

 Clicking his tongue, Leolde moves away from Charlotte to get some distance. As he does so, he fires off a few spells, but they all disappear before the barrier.

"Sleep sleep."

"!!!!"

 Leolde is struck by an intense drowsiness after receiving the magic of the dark attribute that forces the target to sleep. However, he immediately shakes his head violently to blow off the drowsiness. However, it is a bad move. Taking his eyes off Charlotte was something he should not have done in the middle of a battle.

 When Leolde  turned his attention to Charlotte, she had disappeared. Charlotte had used her transference magic to escape out of sight when Leolde's sleep had not worked. It was a painful mistake to have let the world's most powerful  mage out of  his sight.

 As Leolde  searched for Charlotte's figure using exploration magic, countless spells flew at him. When he saw them, he put up a barrier and put all his energy into defense. 

(Calm down. You can use your exploration magic to find  her . .)

 Leolde, who had found a magical reaction, ran at once. 

 However, it was a decoy.

 What Leolde  hit was a clay figurine that looked exactly like Charlotte. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what's going on in your life.

"Ugh"

Don't let your guard down.

"Damm "

 Leolde was hit by magic at close range and fell to knees on the spot. He didn't lose consciousness, but he wasn't going to be able to move for a while. He  knew that  he wasn't going to be able to beat Charlotte yet.

"I'm surprised that it just like you, but how did  you react to magic? The fact that it looks just like you is amazing, but why did it have a magical response?

"It's because  was giving it magical powers to trick you. It was my way of tricking you into believing I was giving you magical power, and since your vision was so poor, I knew you'd  belibe for it.

"I see. SoI fell for it. ......

"That's what I'm talking about.

 It doesn't matter if you know what you're doing, but as long as you're relying on your magical reactions, you're going to get caught again and again. Leolde was pondering what to do about this new challenge. After that, they had several mock battles, but Leolde couldn't get a single scratch on Charlotte, let alone beat her .
