Kizef, who had collected the jewels that floated in the air by type, asked.
“Where should I move this?”
“Here.”
Luciel pointed to the jewel room. There were other jewelry boxes that had been moved in advance.
“…Is it safe to leave it here?”
“I used lock magic.”
“…I don’t think that would work.”
Kizef, who was handling each of the jewels Luciel had made, said.
“It’s more precious than a regular jewel, right? I think I can feel the magic power.”
Luciel nodded her head.
“That’s right. My jewels contain mana. We still need to do more research, but other magical powers……. I asked Mage Erika, who belongs to the Tower to do it.”
“…What? Did you show her this?”
“Don’t worry, it’s hard to explain, but she’s a trustworthy person. She measured the magic within the emerald and told me that it also contains the element of wind.”
After Luciel had said that, Kizef didn’t say any more. But no matter how much he thought about it, it seemed that it was too difficult for him and Luciel to handle alone.
To protect Luciel, and furthermore, to protect Luciel’s jewels.
“Luciel, then the rest of the family doesn’t know about this, do they?”
She nodded her head.
“Yes, you are the first. I didn’t tell anyone. Sister Erika doesn’t know the source of the jewel either.”
“I see.”
Thinking that only he knew Luciel’s secret made Kizef feel a little better.
“For now, keep it a secret from the family. Let’s tell them about it later.”
“…Okay. Instead, we need a way to keep these jewels safe. Your lock magic can be undone with high-circled release magic.”
“Then is there any other way?”
Luciel bit her lip in desperation.
“First, I will tell grandfather and ask for a Shield Sealing Stone to protect your villa.”
“Yes…Thank you.”
“Tell me everything I can do to help in the future. Don’t struggle alone.”
His hand stroked Luciel, his words were reassuring.
“Because I’m on your side.”
At that moment, Luciel thought it was all fate that she met Kizef and married under contract.
“I trust you. I’m on Kizef’s side, too.”
Luciel smiled softly.
‘In this life, I will save you.’
So that Bellstein will not face ruin.
Kizef asked, narrowing his brow.
“By the way, are you okay with pouring out jewels like this?”
“Yes, it’s okay.”
She replied that way, but she was out of breath because she drew too much mana all at once.
Kizef, who checked Luciel’s breathing by placing his hand under her nose, said.
“I see your breathing is disturbed, so you need to rest. Sleep early today I will take you to the private residence.”
“…Yes.”
There was definitely enough energy to move, but somehow Luciel wanted to stay still. Kizef lightly hugged Luciel. When Luciel, who was embarrassed, was awkwardly stiff, Kizef said.
“Wrap your hands around my neck.”
“Yes.”
Neither Kizef nor Luciel said anything after that, but they both knew that there was a fever on their faces.
Thump, thump.
As the spinel started to form, again and again, Kizef worriedly said.
“…You can’t make more, I want you to rest.”
“I-it’s okay.”
Perhaps this is because of this pounding pink feeling. It was somehow different from the expectation of something.
I glanced up at Kizef’s face as he moved while holding me. Kizef’s actions, words, eyes, or everything about him felt like they were in contact with my senses.
Luciel looked away and tried to suppress her emotions. But the pounding and fluttering emotions seemed to be out of control.
‘Other emotions were tolerable. But why can’t I hold this one back?’
Luciel closed her eyes, watching the green light of spatial magic from inside Kizef’s arms.
He drove Luciel to the bedroom of the private residence and asked Bessie to take Luciel to her room on the second floor.
Perhaps it was because he was worried that Luciel would not be able to control her emotions and make more jewelry.
After that, Luciel hugged the doll for a while, calming her pounding heart. After she barely calmed down, she quickly fell asleep, sinking in deep slumber. A smile appeared on Luciel’s lips as if she was having a happy dream.

The next day, Kizef went straight to Gillard’s study.
“Grandfather.”
“What’s going on, Kizef?”
Although Gillard opened his eyes wide as if it was an unexpected visit, he was happy to see the grandson who came to him, so he quickly opened his arm.
“I have a favor to ask.”
“If it’s your request, what can’t I do?”
“Please install a Shield Sealing Stone at the villa in Luciel’s estate.”
“A Shield Sealing Stone?”
“Yes, Luciel spends a lot of time there, so I don’t feel relieved.”
Gillard held back a laugh. At last, it seemed that Kizef and Luciel had finally started to get along, so he was satisfied in his heart.
He tried to play a little with his Grandson for a bit.
“Isn’t there an escort knight? The fief itself is also being protected, right?”
“That is not enough. Even Grandfather doesn’t want Luciel to be in danger.”
As Kizef spoke in a strong tone, Gillard said.
“I also want the child to be kept safe. I approve the installation of the shield seal. I’ll talk with your father.”
“Yes, thank you.”
Gillard soon revealed his true feelings and said.
“Luciel and you seem to be getting along a lot better these days. It’s nice to see. Even if it’s a contract or anything else, it’s changed since you got married.”
“……It’s not because of that, it’s because I’m worried about her safety.”
“Hmm, that’s all?”
Gillard sarcastically said as he watched Kizef answer with blushing ears.
“You know that Luciel has a friend who is taking magic classes with her, right? His name is Eres Sylvane, he’s a 12-year-old boy with a promising future.”
‘This kid, aren’t you jealous of this?’
Gillard stabbed him in the mood to make him so, and the effect was huge. It was because he could feel a dark energy around his Grandson.
“What did you say now…”
Kizef, who was still speechless, narrowed his eyebrows and said:
“I will watch.”
“…What?”
“The magic class.”
“I’m sure you don’t have anything more to watch?”
“No, I think Grandfather’s great teachings are absolutely necessary.”
Kizef said with a smile, but Gillard shook his head.
‘This kid, his obsession is exactly like his father’s.’
Gillard smirked as he stroked his beard.

Luciel had a long sleep.
How long did she sleep? She slept so much that her mind was clouded. She made so many jewels at once, so it was natural.
Luciel, who stretched out in a relaxed mood, thought of the past with a blush on her face.
‘Finally, I told Kizef my secret.’
I was afraid of being punished for revealing to others that I was a Crystal Fairy, I was surprised at how relieved I was after confessing.
The fatigue of the body caused by mana was also lighter.
Last time, everyone was worried because I couldn’t wake up for several days, and even the magic tower’s healing mage had been summoned. But this time it didn’t happen.
“Little Madam, did you sleep well? Master Kizef told me not to wake you up until you wake up alone. I didn’t tell the other adults either.”
Bessie quietly approached Luciel.
‘Oh, Kizef did it for me.’
In fact, if they had known that I was sleeping like last time, the house would be in chaos again.
“By the way, a mage from the tower has come looking for the Little Madam. What should I do?”
Luciel finally came to her senses. Today was the day Erika came to the castle. She went to Luciel’s little fief once a week to study jewelry.
“Tell her to come in. And prepare dessert. Very sweet.”
After receiving Luciel’s orders, Bessie smiled and walked away. Luciel, who met Erika, had a sweet dessert time before discussing work.
From the colorful meringue cookies to the fresh cream tart topped with blueberries, the chocolate financier, and the refreshing orange sorbet.
“Oh my God, today isn’t my birthday, is it? Thanks to Miss Luciel, I’m being blessed.”
Seeing Erika happily eating, Luciel also became happy.
She was about to get full and Luciel sneakily said to Erika.
“Can you do the next research right away?”
“Yes, now that we have a mana measurement tool, we can focus on our research in earnest.”
Luciel placed a pocket on the table and pushed it towards Erika.
It was the next three jewels separated for research. Ruby, sapphire, and topaz.
“It’s so pretty. I am already looking forward to seeing what other powers are hidden here!”
Luciel cutely shushed at Erika’s excited voice and she lowered the volume. Erika touched her lips, saying she would be careful and Luciel quietly spoke.
“Then please go to the lab building and conduct your research comfortably. If anything is lacking in the research space, please tell me.”
“Okay, Luciel. Don’t worry, it’s my specialty to stay confined and do research.”
“But don’t overdo it. If Sister Erika gets sick, the rest of the research will be delayed, so you need to take good care of your health. When you are hungry, go to the dining room and eat a meal. I’ll tell Chef Seth to pay special attention.”
“I will keep that in mind!”
The Duke’s chef’s special dish, Erika vigorously answered as she swallowed her saliva.
Luciel was about to go to Grandpa Gillard for a magic class. But she still had one doubt.
She knew that gems had elemental powers, so she wanted to use them in her staff if possible. That way she can use attribute magic.

Wouldn’t the creator of this wand know how to fully instill the power of the jewel?
It was when Luciel came to Gillard’s study lost with such thoughts.
“Hey, Luciel.”
Eres warmly waved his hand, and the blonde boy in the black suit pointed to the seat next to him as if he couldn’t lose.
“Luciel’s seat is here.”
