Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

[ The new sun shining upon us, the new ray of warm light born to illuminate the world, the heroic child born with a fatal flaw of fate, and the lovely little boy that we all love.

The world is a cruel place and I believe you know that by now, dear Eon.

But in this harsh world, finding your own happiness is something special to every normal being.

It is my greatest joy to be your uncle, and I’m always thankful to you for things you might not even be aware of.

But still, as the ray of light that binds this lovely family, I wish you a long, happy, peaceful, and a life that you desire.

The true wheel of time spins forward, always following the law it has been assigned. The world follows worldly laws, nature being its creator.

The laws are truths, the ones breaking them are transcendents. The nature is author, we mortal her children.

The strings of fate might be present, deciding the flow of life; but don’t forget oh my dear nephew, nothing is certain nor absolute in the world or life. ]

‘It is a bit longer, somewhat complicated, and definitely not something with a shallow meaning.’

He said more than needed with just those words and, even though complicated, it was easy to understand what he wanted to say.

Even I understood what it meant and this bastard was smiling the same warm smile as last time.

The letter itself was only talking to him with the wishing for his well-being.

It was alright and well thought out but, we weren’t doing some writing competition. These letters were the clues to finding the gifts for him.

All the previous letters definitely had the clues, though difficult to understand, they definitely had them.

This one, however, was different.

‘There’s definitely no clue in this one…’

What thing in this letter can even point at something? I definitely wouldn’t think of this one as a clue to a present, but it definitely was.

So, how will my great darling deal with this~?

“How simple of you, uncle Theo…”

“Hum?”

Simple? What simple…?

“You got the clue?”

“Nope. I got the location of the gift.”

What in the nine hells?!

“Where?!”

“Inside.”

“What inside?!!”

“Shut up dum dum. It’s easy. The gift is inside the house, so don’t worry. Just finish your tea and calm down. Here, have some more.”

I was shouting with wide-open eyes while he just drank tea from his beautiful purple cup.

I was angry! And… he poured more tea into my half cup. And more than anything…

‘He said dum dum again…’

What the fuck does that even mean?!

-Sips.

And what does he mean inside?!

-Spis.

What the hell can he even understand from that letter to say that he knows the exact location of the gift?!

-Sips.

“Hmm… pass the sugar, please.”

“Here you go.”

-dup.

‘He is confident too… did he use some kind of spell because he knew there wasn’t any clue in this one to begin with?

[[ That’s a highly unlikely master. The confidence and happiness on his face are of pure certainty.

Knowing him, he would have just accepted the punishment, or at least had some signs of guilt.

But right now, it doesn’t look like he cheated in any way. ]]

[[ “Hmm. Right. You are right as always, Branwen.” ]]

Fortunately, I had this old crow who was smarter than me.

He was a special one to me, so… wait.

[[ “Hey Branwen. Did you understand the clue in that letter? You must have seen it, right?” ]]

[[ Unfortunately, no. Even I failed to actually grasp the hidden deep meaning in the depths of that divine language.

My poor knowledge of this grand nature and ocean of worlds is still far behind master Eon.

This old soul that has wandered the world in the pursuit of greater truths and gained a vast knowledge of the world has failed to decipher the insignificant hint to acquire a mere present.

I’m truly ashamed to be called a crow of wisdom… ]]

‘Right… he’s my dear old crow.’

The way he talks with me and people close to him is very weird compared to the cute Clover or Celes.

His way of talking is so weird it would give anyone hearing it for the first time a strange chill down their spine.

‘Eon called him a chunni…

I don’t know the meaning of that word, but that definitely sounds like something that would explain his peculiar way with words.’ .𝒐𝙧𝒈

Anyway, even my smart crow had no idea of what the gift was or any clue about it.

Then… how the hell did this bastard know of it?

How the hell did he know the exact location of it to say it with that much surely?!

-Sips…

-Clank.

-Nom, nom, nom.

“Ok, let’s go. Let’s see if you are right.”

I finished my entire cup and ate a whole chocolate cookie and looked at him with a serious gaze.

I didn’t doubt that he was telling the truth. He didn’t have any reason to lie to me in all this time we were together.

It was not long when technically speaking, but this definitely was long for us, so I know him a great lot.

So he was serious about knowing the location and I wanted to see just how right he was and what thing there would be from a lawyer who can write such a complicated yet simple things.

I looked down at him who was still calmly sipping his tea with a cupcake in his other hand.

He finished his cup and gave me a smile that screamed that I looked cute right now.

I know this smile now, one of his nine signature smiles.

Well, that wasn’t the point right now.

I wanted to see the gift, his reasoning behind knowing the location of the gift, and the reason he was so excited right now-.

“Rein. Chill darling.

We will be making lunch for hundreds of people after this one and maybe one after this.

We have a lot of work ahead of us. And you will have to go deliver some of the lunch I make to all of them at Alf’s house.

It will be fun and tiring, so cool down and focus on resting a bit instead of being so obsessed with a simple gift.

It’s my birthday and gift anyway. So, sit down and have some of this chocolate lava cake.

It’s a good one~.”

He took out a big cupcake-like small cake from his storage space, which looked hot and delicious from the very first glance.

The delicious scent of the cake had already filled the surrounding atmosphere.

‘This thing… I don’t think he had ever made something like this one.’

I also don’t think it’s something ordinary from the looks of it.

It’s most definitely a mix of his brownie, a cupcake, and melted chocolate.

The cake looked fresh, as if freshly taken out of an oven too…

‘That special storage space… I know it’s one of his origin skills, but to think a skill can completely freeze time for something when put inside… just amazing.’

Even my (Indigo) ranked storage skill wasn’t like this.

It can store a loooooot of things in it, but even that one can’t hold a candle before his skill.

I don’t think even an ancient artifact can stop time for things inside, as his skill does.

It’s just that amazing…

Anyway, the cake.

It looked mouth-watering, so I had to eat that. We also had to prepare food for everyone, just as he said.

As for the cake…

“Hmm~.”

Twelve out of twelve.
