Someday Will I Be The Greatest Alchemist?

Chapter 507:  Emilia-chan’s birthday

I was busy with various games, but today, I came to Rockford Earldom today.

When Papeck-san visited the Sanctuary, I received a letter that he was holding onto. The sender was Emilia-chan. Weve met with Earl Rockfords daughter several times, weve also cured Emilia-chan of her sickness, so among the nobles of Valkyra Kingdom, she and Margrave Volton were the closest acquaintances we had.

I received a letter from Emilia-chan inviting me to her birthday party.

It said that they were holding a party for the nobles, but in consideration of us, they were also holding a more private birthday party in consideration of us.

If they say theyre going that far then I suppose we must go. I havent met Emilia-chan since she was completely cured, and it could be a good way to relax.

We teleported to the Rockford territory. We could have taken Tsubakis carriage from Volton, but we couldnt be away from the Sanctuary for a few days. Charlotte and the others would flip out.

Iruma-dono, youve come.

Long time no see Earl Rockford. Thank you for inviting us today.

No need to be so formal. Now then, have a seat.

Shown into the mansion, Earl Rockford greeted us.

Madam Rose, glad to see you too. Rob-sama, its been a while. Emilia-sama, you seem to be doing well. And happy birthday.

Thank you for when Emilia was sick. Please enjoy yourself today.

Iruma-san, please call me Rod. You dont need to add sama.

Iruma-sama, thank you for coming here for my sake. Please also just call me Emilia.

Then Ill call you Rod-kun, and Emilia-san.

Please use chan.

Umm, are you okay with Emilia-chan then?

Yes!

Fufu, Emilia, oh you. You were so excited to meet with Iruma-san.

Mother! Jeez!

I greeted Madam Rose, then the eldest son Rod-kun, and Emilia-chan.

i thought Emilia-chan was still around 10 years old, but perhaps because people mature fast in this world, so it was an age that would it difficult to call her Emilia-chan, but since she had asked me to call her that, I couldnt refuse.

This time, our full party namely, Sophia, Maria, Kaede, Marnie, Laeva, Akane, Lulu-chan, and myself, had come.

Its a birthday celebration, so all the party members involved in the collection of materials for Soma were invited.

The room we were led to was lined with extravagant dishes. It was a buffet style party, and the other invited guests were already there.

Iruma-sama, good to see you. It appears the Papeck Company is selling interesting things again.

So you were invited to, Margrave Volton.

The one who approached and talked to us was Margrave Volton, a close friend of Earl Rockford. It seems they already knew about what Papeck-san was selling, but which one? Ive been busy with all sorts of things in quick succession, so I wasnt aware of which one they were pertaining to.

Iruma-dono, much obliged for that time. Please take care of Charlotte.

Ah, Viscount Packard. Charlotte-san has been of much help to me.

In the party held for Emilias birthday the other day, Lord Packard learned that the benefactor of his daughter and grandchild, Iruma-dono, would be attending the private gathering and asked to attend.

Viscount Packard, please use the Sanctuary lodge like usual. I think Charlotte-san would be happy too.

Umu, I shall pay a visit. Theres also matters with Elizabeth.

Actually, Charlottes mother, Madam Elizabeth is still staying in the Sanctuary lodge.

From the lodge, she could visit my mansion, go on a stroll around the Sanctuary, she could spend her time freely.

Although they said it was a party only for relatives, Earl Rockford was a high ranking noble. A few nobles he was close to, such as Margrave Volton, were also invited.

The grand party that was held a few days prior, and the royalists and neutral faction as well as wealthy merchants were invited to it. Put bluntly, the party held today was so we could be invited.

The party started calmly, Emilia informed us on the recent situation.

Hee, so youll be in the magic academy starting in the spring of next year huh?

Yes! Iruma-san, may I ask for some magic coaching?

Lets see. We have Sophia and Akane, so with a bit of time, we can give you advice.

Really!? Thank you very much!

Thats great, Emilia. Iruma-dono and Sophia-dono are a given, but even Akane-dono, Maria-dono, and Laeva-dono are also very proficient with magic. With this, you can have peace of mind with the magic academys entrance exams.

The rehabilitation of Emilias body is pretty much over, and she has pretty much recovered to the point that her daily life isnt impeded. Now, in order to utilize the increase in her magic power due to her complete recovery, she was studying magic very hard to enter the Royal Capitals Magic Academy.

When we talked about Emilia-chans magic coaching, Rod-kun made a request himself.

Then may I ask for coaching as well?

Rod-kun youre a knight with Swordplay and Shield Technique, arent you? Then you should probably ask Sophia.

There are differences between between Valkyra Kingdom and Yggurle Kingdom, but I believe the basics would be alright.

By all means, please do!

At Earl Rockfords suggestion, we decided to stay the night and coach Emilia-chan and Rod-kun tomorrow.

Today, Im going to enjoy traditional dishes from Valkyra Kingdom. Kaede and Lulu-chan were also jumping between tables lined with food.
