Chapter 59 – Touring Ends Here! Also, Fireball

“Sоrrу, I think I’vе rеаched my limit…”

“Аh, thе Labyrinth Мinistry cаr hаs brоkеn dоwn! Wеll, if you fоrce it bасk into sеrviсе аftеr a hugе eхplosiоn аnd rоlling оver, this is bound tо haрpen.”

※ ‘Mаkеs sense’ ‘The drаgоn left a huge impaсt dеspite only aррearing fоr a mоmеnt…’ ‘I fееl like Little Spicе did something insаnе tоo lol’ ‘Wе’ll рrеtend we didn’t hеar that…!’

Тhey’re such соnsideratе Рeрpers аnd Meat Вrigadе mеmbers!

Well then, we just discоverеd thе sеcоnd ruins at the реrfеct time.

Uр until now, wе hаvеn’t еnсountеrеd а single lосal resident…

“Hmm, maybe all the humans in this world have been wiped out…!!”

“I knew it!”

“Ahem!”

As expected, there was no one living in the ruins.

But well, monsters don’t seem to enter human-built towns very frequently.

Maybe only small ones like Goblins, or monsters that are nimble like Griffons?

Since it’s relatively safe, we decided to make this our base and return from here.

“We’ll open a Gate here. The long-distance movement ritual we experimented with using Ms. Spice the other day has been systematized, so if we can arrive on Earth from here, we won’t need to use Ms. Spice’s home anymore.”

The Labyrinth Ministry person explains.

I see, that might be helpful.

“Even Spice has a private life, you know.”

※ ‘Was the state interfering in the little girl’s daily life?’

“Watch your phrasing!”

And so, the Otherworld tour ends here.

The Labyrinth Ministry people are drawing a Magic Circle in the background, planning to make this our base.

Probably we’ll be moving from ruins to ruins from now on.

Also, if Japanese vehicles speed through, it seems unlikely the monsters of this world would catch up anytime soon.

“Alright Spice! Let’s practice some magic before we go! You should be able to use Fireball now, right?”

“I forgot!! I’ve been busy every day… Little Chara, please help me out!”

“Okay!”

Charaway moves to a distance.

Seems like he intends to be the target.

He’s equipped with a flame-retardant cloak.

After that duel stream with Freya, it became common knowledge that flame-retardant cloth is effective against fire in streams!

“Flame retardant!!”

Just Charaway declaring this makes him significantly harder to burn.

※ ‘Is this catch?’ ‘This doesn’t feel like training to block magic lol’ ‘Charaway is such a good big brother’

“Alright!! Here goes!! Gather, mass of flames, and fly! Fireball!!”

At Spice’s raised fingertip, whoooosh! Flames are gathering!

Now, this has a core, and that core is charcoal.

The image is throwing the charcoal floating at the fingertip using centrifugal force!!

Then the Fireball flies in a parabolic arc…

And hits Charaway with a thud!

※ ‘Whoa dead ball!’ ‘Ouch ouch ouch’ ‘Hot hot hot’ ‘Did it work!?’

‘No, the smoke cleared and Charaway is…!’

“Ughwaa! The fire’s nothing, but getting hit stings a bit, this does-!!”

However, the moment it hits, the core charcoal shatters, so the Fireball disperses too.

Normally, the flames would scatter along with the core, spreading fire around.

“The damage seems low, huh…?”

‘Mmm, Fireball aa, the more magic power the target possesses aa, the more power it exhibits aa!!’

“Ah, I see. Little Chara has zero magic power.”

‘It only has about as much power as throwing charcoal aa’

Well, that’s only natural it’s not impressive.

In other words, this magic has no effect at all on ordinary people.

Even though it’s a representative flame magic, the reason it wasn’t mentioned in mainstream history is now clear!

It’s for fights between Witches.

But, if it works on opponents with magic power, it should be very useful in Dungeon Streams.

Because only monsters with magic power, Grudge Spirits, and Demons appear there.

…Oops, no no.

I’ve been Spice for too long, and my consciousness keeps getting pulled in.

“Ehh, so that’s why, this stream ends here! It was quite a spectacle! But touring is fun, so maybe we’ll have a rematch! See you later!!”

※ ‘Thanks!’ ‘Bye bye!!’ ‘Another stream packed with content’

‘Little Spice does a lot of outdoor streams besides Dungeons too’ ‘Can we really call this an outdoor stream?’

Stream over!

The Magic Circle completes simultaneously and begins to glow.

“We’ll operate it using this world’s magic power. We have data from the previous experiment and have tested it in several locations, so this should work… Hup!”

The staff member jumps into the Magic Circle.

His figure disappears.

Then another staff member’s smartphone receives a message.

“Ah, it seems he arrived at Narihirabashi Station! I see, it appears the travel distance in the Otherworld and the travel distance in reality are linked to some extent… No, even so, you can jump to a location several times farther than the travel distance. If we can understand this regularity…”

They’re thinking about complicated things.

“Well, Spice and I want to go back too, so should we just jump in here?”

“Ah, yes. Please bill the Labyrinth Ministry for the return train fare. Here’s the billing address.”

“Ah, thanks thanks. Yeah, you’re right, we can’t just go home on the return trip.”

It’s convenient, yet inconvenient…

“Shall we head back, then?”

“Yo, good work!”

Charaway and I return to our original forms and step into the Magic Circle.

Shino transforms into Mr. Murakami too.

“Then I’ll also…”

“Mr. Murakami, please report to the Labyrinth Ministry once.”

“Eh…”

Farewell, Murakami!!

He was hanging out at our place too much…

Thus, Charaway and I cross the Wall of the World and land in the real world.

“I see, indeed it’s Narihirabashi…”

“You know? I heard if it weren’t for the Dungeon Calamity, a huge tower was supposed to be built here.”

“Ah, so I’ve heard. You know a lot about it.”

“My senior streamer cleared a Dungeonized construction site here…”

Talking about such things, the two men, having come to a station they don’t usually get off at, decide to do some sightseeing.
