Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

"Linos, the master wants to see you."

Suddenly, I received a call from Lady Elsa. I wondered what she wanted, but nothing came to mind. However, when Erza-sama calls me, there is always some kind of meaning. She is not the kind of person who uses me without meaning.

"Master, it's Linos."

A knock on the door announces his arrival. There is a pause for breath.

"Come in."

I entered Erza-sama's room, and was stunned by what I didn't expect. To my surprise, the crown prince was there. Our eyes meet. I come to my senses and fall to one knee.

"I beg your pardon. I beg your pardon.

"Oh, there's no need to be so timid. "Oh, there's no need to be so modest. Please stand up."

"Thank you very much. I beg your pardon.

"Your Highness has come to the house to make a private request of Linos. We would be very grateful if you could help us.

"That's too kind of you to say. I will do whatever I can to help His Highness the Dauphin and by extension, my master. I am not a good man, but I will do my best to help you.

"Are you sure he's twelve? It's frightening that the Barsam family is so well educated."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looks at me. His face is smiling, but his eyes are not. This is the kind of man to watch out for. He has no mercy for those he considers his enemies. That's why I'm overly loyal to this man. Well, I have no intention of becoming his enemy.

"Let's get down to business. What I need from you is a goldfinch. There are about a hundred of them."

Golden bird... A chief bird with a golden bill and feathers that lives deep in the forests of Renoa. According to one theory, they feed on gold, and their meat is rich and tender, and is said to have the best taste of any chicken meat. The bird itself is classified as an F-rank demon, but it is very vigilant, and its escape is so fast that it can reach the speed of light. It is said that it is impossible to catch a golden bird that has fled, even for a lvl. 5 god-class human. Moreover, its flesh is so fast that it begins to decompose five minutes after death and is completely rotten within an hour. For this reason, the golden bird is rarely served on the dinner table. It is common that golden fowls are hunted by chance, and one theory is that golden fowls, realizing their deathbed, leave the flock and move to the entrance area of the forest. When golden fowls are hunted, they are immediately dismembered and eaten on the spot, or if one is lucky enough to have "infinite storage" or a spatial magician, they may be brought back without decomposition. At that time, the price is said to be in the hundreds of thousands of G. One hundred such rare birds. This is a rather absurd order.

"On the occasion of my inauguration as regent, an inauguration ceremony will be held. Afterwards, we will have a banquet to which we will invite emissaries from various noble families and countries. As the main course, I would like to serve a dish of golden bird."

"The deadline is in two weeks. I can't wait any longer. What do you say, will you do it?

"This is a great opportunity to show His Highness's prestige. Who else can do this but you, Linos?

Certainly, having 100 golden birds, which are extremely difficult to hunt, in one set would imply that they hold tremendous power. It would be perfect to show as a deterrent.

"Why can't you be the master?"

"Idiot. I can hunt a few, but not a lot. I hunt a few and they run away. I find a herd and my fire magic will burn them to a crisp.

"If my master can't do it, it will be even more difficult for me as an apprentice."

You've got your warding magic. We can find a flock of goldfinches, tie them all up in a ward and bring them straight to us."

This is absurd. First of all, it is difficult to find a flock of wary goldfinches, and even if you do find them, you will have to set up wards over a fairly large area. Even if you do find them, you have to set up wards over a very wide area. The moment the warding is revealed, the golden birds will disappear. The master's method will be difficult. Hmmm, I don't know what to do.

"Don't worry. Linos will find a way. Your Highness, please wait as if you were on a big ship. I'll make sure you get your 100 golden birds.

Erryl! When did you come into this room? What did you just say? Don't blow your own horn thinking it's somebody else's business!

"Yes, I'm relieved to hear that. But please don't bring it to me in a rotten state."

"Of course, Your Highness. The House of Bertham has an "infinite storage" system. They will not spoil once they are placed in those bags.

"Yeah, that's what I was going to ask you for, too."

"Your Highness, please don't call me sir. Please call me Elsa.

"No, only you and the Marquis de Berthaume are sincere in your opinions of me. It's a reminder to myself. Please let me call you teacher after all.

"Of course, sir."

A gentle banter begins among the others, except for me. Have you ordered yet? I'm left with no choice but to say, "Yes, I'd love to!" I could only reply, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
