🕑 Added 2023-12-05 16:03:01 +0000 UTC"So, on the ninth floor..." Touko Aozaki looked at the receptionist at the front desk and said.
"Yes, Aozaki-san, the president is waiting for you there."
"I understand." Touko Aozaki nodded, picked up her suitcase from the floor, and said, "Well, then, forget about my visit. Just work as usual."
"I understand."
With that, Touko Aozaki put on the glasses she had just taken off and pressed the elevator button.
The receptionist at the JOJO office rubbed her head, feeling a slight headache. "Just now... what exactly."
"Fuyuki City." In the elevator, Touko Aozaki looked at the changing floor numbers and said, "It seems that the rumors are true. The Ryougi family is around here."
She was ready to temporarily leave Japan.
Although she had been designated for sealing, she wouldn't let her original plans for the visitation stop.
"However, I was originally planning to see his future vision before that affair started. Maybe it could be helpful... but moving from Morioh Town to Fuyuki City, really, my visitation is already prepared to leave. Anyway, let's go take a look."
Touko Aozaki said, and the elevator reached the ninth floor, and she stepped out.
"Is it Aozaki-san?" Someone asked after entering.
"Ah, yes." Touko Aozaki smiled and said.
"The president is waiting over here."
With that, he led the way, and they quickly arrived at Kurokawa Kazuya's office.
"So, you are Aozaki-san, nice to meet you." Having already packed up his things and taken out the manuscripts from this room, Kazuya avoided possible combat disturbances.
"Yes, and you are Kurokawa-san..." Touko Aozaki said with a slight sigh, "A bit different from what I expected."
"Hmm? Are you talking about precognition?"
"Oh... it seems you know a little." Touko Aozaki sat down somewhat unexpectedly, "Speaking of which, do you have something to drink? Coffee will do."
"Sure, wait a moment." Kazuya nodded and poured her a cup of coffee, saying, "Well, it's natural. After all, I don't have any precognition myself. I'm just an ordinary person tricked by Jewel Guy."
"An ordinary person? You really dare to say that." Touko Aozaki narrowed her eyes slightly, feeling danger and confidence emanating from the man in front of her.
It gave her a feeling that if she were to make a move here, she would be defeated...
How did he manage that?
Clearly, he didn't have magecraft... no, he could sense magical power.
On the back of his left hand, the place blocked by gloves, she could feel a strong fluctuation of magical power.
"Really... should I say it's worthy of a crowned magus? Seeing through my cards at a glance." Kazuya looked at Touko Aozaki's gaze helplessly and said, "I can't help it. I'm not good at magecraft myself, so I can't hide the magical power fluctuations above. I can only do it like this, using gloves to cover up."
With that, Kazuya took off the gloves.
Anyway, the person in front of him had already seen it. There was no meaning in hiding it or not.
But...
Although she was fortunate.
Before she prepared to go to the [Mystic Eye Collection Train], she could meet this crowned magus , the most special one among all the crowned magus.
If it were her...
"So it's like this... Command Spell." Touko Aozaki looked at the back of Kazuya's hand and said, "The command spells from the Holy Grail War held in Fuyuki City... no, are you the Master of the next Holy Grail War?"
"No... this is indeed the command spell of the Fuyuki City's Holy Grail War, but I left it behind with some means. Whether the next Holy Grail War will be held or when it will be held is still unknown. By the way, Aozaki-san, how about we make a deal?"
"A deal?"
"Yes, I have two trades I want to make with you. Of course, I'll pay, and you need money too, right?"
"Ah, yes, that's right. Or rather, which magus isn't short of money?" Touko Aozaki said straightforwardly... although a portion of her money was not spent on magecraft, but on various peculiar visitations.
"Is that so... then, if I pay, can you make a glove that can help me conceal magical power fluctuations? As long as it can cover the back of the hand, it's fine. As for the fingers, it's better to expose them, so it'll be easier to handle a pen." Kazuya asked.
"Of course, that's fine." Touko Aozaki's tone suddenly became cheerful. Originally thought that this trip was just running an errand, but unexpectedly, there was a hidden mission.
Hmm, it's like playing a game.
It seems that completing this mission can earn a large amount of money, making her happy.
Whether it's her hobbies or magical research, it's the same, especially now that she can't borrow money from the Clock Tower.
Being sealed by the Clock Tower like this, she feels the best thing is... now she doesn't have to pay back the money.
"According to what you said... making gloves like that, um, I'll charge you 100 million yen. How about that?"
So cheap!
Listening to Touko Aozaki's words, Kazuya said with an emotionless tone, "Material costs and such don't matter. Use the best materials. The higher the level that can conceal magical power, the better. It's best if it's a level that magus of your level can't see. How about that?"
"Well... in that case, I'll charge you 500 million yen." Touko Aozaki's eyes lit up, looking at the man in front of her who seemed to say, "I'm not short of money."
"Okay." Kazuya nodded.
It doesn't seem too expensive.
Although magus don't actually spend money, do they?
Earned.
Both Kazuya and Touko Aozaki felt that they had earned.
"At that time, I'll use some fantasy seeds to weave a glove for him, and carve some runes inside... I have the materials now, it's completely zero cost." Touko Aozaki also felt happy. Unconsciously, she would have 500 million yen.
How to spend this money?
"That's great. I will definitely make something that satisfies you. By the way, what about the first trade you mentioned... what is it?" Touko Aozaki took a sip of coffee, looking forward to asking.
"Well... I don't know if you can make some adjustments and checks on homunculus."
"...Homunculus." Touko Aozaki put down the coffee in her hand as if she had thought of something, "Einzbern?"
"Yes."
