Momo's POV

It didn't take long for us to reach his house. There I found out Miyamura-kun and Azusawa-san were neighbors. It would explain why they are so close.

Miyamura-kun invited me into his house. Azusawa-san also wanted to come but Miyamura-kun persuaded her to come later.

Instead of a house, it looked like a mansion. There were probably two floors, and stairs leading to the second floor were in the hall. There was a beautiful chandelier and some exotic paintings on the wall. I don't about the number of rooms. But overall it was a beautiful mansion. It's baffling how a young child like him could live alone in this big mansion.

He led me to a room that looked like a guest room with sofas and other furniture fully furnished.

"Please,take a seat Hanakai-san.I'll prepare some tea for you", he motioned for me to sit on the sofa.

" No. I can't trouble Miyamura-kun like that. Let's just sit and have a chat"

"It's not troubling at all. I will bring some sweets", saying so he left for around 10 minutes. Then he came back with tea and different kinds of sweets. He motioned for me to partake in it while he sat opposite me.

The tea and sweets were good. I wonder how he's already so mature.

We talked about some mundane things for a while. Then some time later after some deliberations, I decided to ask him directly.

" Miyamura-kun, do you know about the supernatural? " I asked in a soft voice.

He looked at me for a while then opened his mouth to say something.

"I do know about the supernatural side of the world. Did your parents tell you about it?"

"Umm...yes.How did you find out? Was it your parents?" I asked.

"Yes."

"Miyamura-kun, do you learn magic by any chance?"

"I do. It seems you've also delved into human magics."

"Um..yes but I haven't made any progress for the past year or so. Does anyone teach you by any chance?"

"Yes. I have had some help from an acquaintance of mine"

"I see. I don't have anyone to learn from. I've just tried learning on my own using some books but the result isn't anything good" I said dejectedly.

"Hm, but I think you do have magical talents. You just need to learn from someone to boost the efficiency"

"You think? Could you introduce me to your acquaintance?" I asked with some hope.

"I can't. But if you want I can help you with learning magic"

"You will?"

"Sure, why not? But you will have to keep it a secret. I don't want people to know I'm learning magic yet"

"OK! I won't tell anyone"

"But you will have to come to my house often to learn magic. Are you fine with that?"

"I'm fine with that!" I said with excessive excitement. Then suddenly I realized I don't know what kind of magic he practices or how powerful they are.

"Miyamura-kun, can you show me some magic" I asked curiously.

He just smiled and did something with his hand. Then a blue magic circle lit up. Snow started to fall, and then small tornadoes of wind blew off all the snow.

It was sparkling and beautiful. I was excited to learn something like that. We chatted for a while talking about our hobbies. Then I went back home with a smile on my face.

Kouske's POV

After Momo had gone I started thinking about ways to get my aura and magical powers in control. If a human-like Momo could detect it then people from the supernatural could also easily detect it. I also need ways to hide my sacred gear.

Teaching Momo would let me get closer to her. I just thought of it on the spur of the moment. Even though I've never learned human magic Vritra could easily help me teach her. The magic circle I used was the summoning circle. Vritra helped me modify it for using it as a magic circle. It can roughly save up to 60% of the user's mana.

"I can teach you how to hide your aura and magical powers but I can't do anything about the sacred gear," said Vritra in my head.

[Kouske!There's an object in the shop for that] Clarice chimed in

I looked at the item in question

Condicarment(bracelet)(C): It can conceal any one thing the wearer wants-20000 points

I quickly bought it and put it on my left hand. It was silver in color with a capital C engraved in golden letters.

I focus on it to make it hide my sacred gear. I hope it works. I will be learning the other things from Vritra.

I found Asagi strolling around impatiently outside my house.

"So, what did she say?" asked Asagi.

"Nothing much. She was just asking about my parents as she knew them from before"

"Is that all?"

"Yeah. We just talked about some random stuff"

"Hmph!" she just looked at me for a while and went away angrily. Looks like she didn't buy it.

I went to meet Irina. But she didn't come to the park today. So I just came back home ignoring the other kids' calling to me to play.

I just came back home to go to the dungeon. There wasn't much to do. I was just taming as many slimes as possible. I didn't find any rare ones.

I went out of the dungeon. I decided to head for the mountains beside Kuoh town. There I found some beetles and other bugs and insects. I thought about trying to tame them. To my surprise, it worked. I could share its senses with mine. Afterward, I started taming all kinds of animals in the mountains and even Kuoh as they could become my eyes and ears in this town. And nobody could even detect the effects of my taming. So for spying it was a very good strategy.

That day when I came home late, Asagi's mom came to ask to have dinner with them. I didn't refuse and started following her.
