			While this was going on, Saito had arrived at the neighboring Tower of Fire, where Mister Colbert’s laboratory is. The object that he hastily picked up as he left was still clutched in his arms. After knocking on the door, Kirche peeked her head out. Clad in a skimpy negligee, it was quite a bothersome distraction for Saito’s eyes.

			“Ah, Saito.”

			“Is Sensei here?”

			“He’s here but…He had a few drinks and has been mumbling about something. Is something the matter?”

			As Saito got closer, Colbert, apparently drunk, was sprawled on top of the table.

			“Sensei, what happened?”

			“…Mmhmm. Royalty! And noblemen, blast them! Magic is all they ever think about! Even though there are plenty of undiscovered technical and cultural things in this world…All of these meaningless quarrels for the sake of pride…Blasted superiors, the lot of them!...”

			Not receiving permission from the royal court appeared to be a considerable shock to him. Saito had taken a liking of the Colbert before him now.

			If it was him…, perhaps he could hand it over, Saito thought.

			Saito tapped on Colbert’s shoulder.

			“…mmhmm. Wha? Aah, Saito-kun. What brings you?”

			His breath reeking of alcohol, Colbert lifted his head up.

			“Sensei…, here.”

			Saito set the object that he was carrying on top of the table.

			“Hm? This is…, what exactly?”

			Looking at the silver, rectangular flat object, Colbert’s eyes lit up.

			“…This is from your world? There’s no doubt!”

			Instantly, Colbert’s drunkenness disappeared from his face.

			“Yes. It was the only thing that I was carrying when I arrived here…, it’s called a notebook computer.”

			“Marvelous! Truly marvelous! Look at this, Miss Zerbst. It’s like the craftsmanship of Germania!”

			Next to him, Kirche had an impression like that of a helper looking over his best interests, as she also marveled at it.

			“No, Jean. This is much more elaborate than Germania craftsmanship. Hey Saito, what exactly is this? Is this a jewelry box crafted by someone from your world?”

			The words ‘your world’ rang through Saito as he looked over at Colbert.

			“…Forgive me. I accidentally let that slip.”

			“Isn’t it fine, if it’s me? Hey, I won’t tell anyone. The fact that you are a person from another world.”

			Kirche nodded with a carefree smile. Honestly, he didn’t mind Kirche knowing. Knowing that she was in fact an honorable girl with tight lips, Saito simply mumbled ‘oh well.’

			“Sensei, this wasn’t crafted to be a jewelry box. How do I put this…, while it’s kind of hard to explain, it can be thought of like a type of library that is packed full of books.”

			“A library? This thing? Truly, surprising! This small box being called a library of sorts! This world of yours, just how exactly does it work?”

			Kirche’s eyes were also wide open.

			“Are we supposed to shrink and enter it?”

			“No…, that’s not it. Words, pictures, and sound are made smaller into what is called ‘data’, and that data is packed into this thing. I did say that it was a library at first, but it can really store much more information than what you can find in a library. That stuff appears here. It is like a magical mirror that projects an image.”

			Saito opened up his notebook computer to show them the LCD monitor.

			“Speaking of which, is information of your world in here?”

			“…since I’m the only one that has used it, I don’t think anything important is in here. What this machine can really do is set up a terminal, which can exchange information with various other people.”

			“In other words, with other people far away from you. Is this what you mean?”

			Saito gave him a nod.

			In reality, he had only used his computer to surf the internet, so there really wasn’t much data. Well, even if he were to have some data, whether that would be of any use is another story.

			“Then, if you were to use this, you would be able to access the information of your world. Am I correct?”

			At this point, Saito mumbled in disappointment.

			“Well, if I only had power.”

			“Power? What is this power?”

			“It’s that thing. Electricity. This machine runs on electricity.”

			“Electricity! I see!”

			Colbert sighed.

			“Hey Jean, what is electricity?”

			“In this world, it exists in many forms. Like a flash of lightning or the shock that you get from touching the staircase on a cold, winter day. These are all forms of electricity. However, there are not many scholars that study this…”

			Kirche lifted her arms up and shrugged in confusion.

			“We also call upon it in magic. It is the branch of ‘lightning’ spells.”

			“How strange. I had certainly thought of it as some sort of poison or what not.”

			“…there is a battery inside of it. Ah, what I mean by battery is something that stores electricity. Hmm, it seems to be completely empty.”

			“I do not really understand that part, but if there is no electricity, it will not be of any use.” [[Image:ZnT13-083.jpg\|thumb]]

			Kirche fluttered around them.

			“But, it may be of some use for research.”

			Colbert nodded in agreement.

			“Just being able to look at this collection of parts closely…makes my heart pound with excitement.”

			Colbert continued looking at the notebook computer with the eyes of a child who had been given a present.

			“The least I can do for now, is let you study it as you wish.”

			Colbert looked at Saito worriedly.

			“But…are you sure? I am certain to be absolutely careful with it, but I may end up destroying it. Is this not important to you?”

			Saito shook his head.

			“It’s ok. Either way, I can’t use it.”

			Somehow cheerfully, Saito replied.

			Colbert nodded and buried his face in the notebook computer again. He couldn’t stop himself from taking it apart and analyzing it now.

			As Saito turned to leave, Kirche complained to him.

			“Really, you’ve done an unnecessary thing. He’s going to be so busy studying it that after a week, he will forget all about me.”

			“Sorry for barging in suddenly.”

			Colbert said, while scratching his head. Both Saito and Louise shrank in their chairs in embarrassment.
			At some point, Siesta had returned to set some tea out for them. Tabitha was sitting on the window sill, content with reading her book. It seemed that she was planning on staying there to keep an eye on Saito.

			Then, Colbert, who was also sitting in a chair, let out a big sigh. Apparently, there was something the matter.

			“What’s wrong, Sensei?”
			Saito looked towards his water with his head down as Colbert sighed. It seems like he didn’t even notice the current maid attire Saito had on. What incredible concentration this teacher had.
			“First, I have to apologize to you.”
			“Wha?”
			Saito looked blankly as Colbert started explaining the details.
			It’s about the expedition to the East on the Ostland. We will not be able to head east because Gallia will not allow us to pass through its airspace.
			Whether it’s merchant ships or exploration ships, foreigners must have official documentation in order to pass through their territory, in which permission is obtained through allied countries.
			Colbert once again let out a deep sigh.
			“You couldn’t obtain permission from Gallia?”
			Saito asked with a concerned tone. For that matter, something was off. A situation as simple as this shouldn’t cause such a heavy expression. Well, getting permission from Gallia was not exactly something that they knew much about…
			“No, first of all I don’t have a permit for that country. I asked Old Osman to arrange for one…”
			Colbert shook his head.
			A strange silence enveloped them. Then, Colbert slowly looked up.
			“…was it that much of a surprise?”, Saito asked.
			Saito was a bit confused, which started making him flustered.
			“Well, to be honest, it was a surprise...”
			Colbert’s expression got sour.
			“But, anyways, there are some unsettled matters to attend to, so for now I’m staying here…, no, I want to stay here.”
			Louise’s eyes opened wide.
			Tabitha raised her eyebrows briefly.
			Siesta’s cheeks turned red.
			The frankness of his own statement personally surprised Saito. Truly, it was a heartfelt statement. Taking a glance at Louise’s face to the side, he confirmed it to himself.
			“You may be giving up a great opportunity. If that is the case, you may never be able to return.”
			As Colbert said that, images of his friends ‘performing their services’ in the courtyard floated within Saito’s heart. Practice with the Knights of the Water Spirit. However stupid and short-sighted they were, and how much of simpletons they could be…they were friends that faced the dreaded dragon knights for his sake.
			With guys like them here…, it wouldn’t be so bad to just stay in this world.
			“Well, when the time comes, I’ll worry about it then.”
			At Saito’s carefree statement, Colbert shook his head in disappointment.
			“Unlike you, I cannot wait patiently for events to happen. I want to see it for myself! A world that revolves around the principles of technology, rather than magic! A world with different values, different people… Well, if you say so, I suppose we can postpone it for now.”
			Shaking his head all the while, Colbert exited the room.
			Some time passed between the inhabitants left in the room. The first one to break the silence was Siesta, whose voice was full of glee, embarrassment, and comfort towards Saito.
			“U-um! It is really unfortunate for Saito-san~! But, but, I am just a bit glad. I mean, I am glad that Saito-san has decided to stay in this world for us.”, she said.
			“Miss Vallière thinks so too!” Louise turned her head away, staring at her water.
			“I’m not glad at all.”
			Louise replied with an angry tone.
			“Since you have to stay here anyways, it can’t be helped.”
			“That cannot be true! Saito-san has helped Miss Vallière and the rest of us and saved Tristain from its crises countless times, hasn’t he!”
			“Well, I will acknowledge that. But, I did not summon him to jeer at other girls.”
			Louise looked at both Siesta and the silently reading Tabitha. At that, Saito casually mumbled.
			“A-ah, it was unfortunate for me. After all, I’m such a selfish, undutiful familiar…”
			“Then it would be better if you went home.”
			“If I could, I would have right away.”
			The two of them were heartlessly exchanging verbal blows with their backs turned. Then, Saito put his foot in his mouth.
			“But, that’s not all I’m dissatisfied with.”
			That statement made Louise red in anger.
			Then, Saito made his way to the door.
			Louise stared at Saito with a face like that of an uneasy puppy. But, she refused to ask where was he going.
			“Saito-san, where are you going?”
			“A walk.”
			“Like that, you are?”
			Saito looked down at himself, still clad in the maid outfit. Saito began changing in a panic.
			Siesta ‘kya-ed’ from overload as she tried to hide her face from the scene. But her fingers didn’t quite hide her eyes. Tabitha continued reading her book, completely ignoring the scene. Louise blushed and turned away.
			After he finished changing, he appeared to have remembered something and started looking for it. That particular item had ended up on top of Louise’s things. Grabbing it, Saito left the room.
			The door closed with a bang, drowning the room in a brief silence. Acting like nothing ever happened, Louise wordlessly grabbed a snack from the tabletop and started eating. Not having any appetite, Siesta started cleaning.
			As Louise silently nibbled on her cookie, she looked towards Tabitha sitting on the window sill and the darkness of night behind her.
			“It’s getting late. You should head back to your own room.”
			However, Tabitha neither replied nor moved. The sound of pages turning, Louise nibbling her cookie, and Siesta sweeping the floor were the only things heard in her room.
			“Hey Tabitha, are you planning to stay here tonight?”
			Tabitha nodded slightly.
			“Why? Don’t tell me because Saito is here?”
			Siesta’s broom immediately stopped. Tabitha nodded again.
			“What is the meaning of this?”
			Somewhat seething in jealously, Louise approached her. Tabitha closed her book and faced her.
			“You are going overboard.”
			“What? You have a problem with that? I’m telling you that Saito is my familiar. I am free to deliver whatever punishment I see fit.”
			“Even so, I cannot allow you to endanger him. Eventually, he will get hurt.”
			“What? Have you taking a liking to him?”
			“Not a ‘liking’.”
			Louise’s eyes narrowed.
			“…I’m saying that you are trespassing onto some serious grounds.”
			Tabitha looked straight at Louise, who was seething with jealousy and anger.
			“So what?”
			Louise furiously took out her wand. Tabitha readied her large wand at the same time. Louise’s body swayed from the impressive magical aura flaring around her.
			An aura of ‘void.’
			The growing jealousy in her heart was fueling Louise’s magic.
			Likewise, an icy aura comparable to Louise’s enveloped around Tabitha’s body, chilling the air around her. To onlookers, they appeared as two weak girls locked in a stare down. In fact, an ominous atmosphere spread around them, much like the calm before a confrontation between a dragon and a wyvern of equal strength.
			Instantly, Siesta picked up on the bloodthirsty air between them.
			“Well! You two! Well, well!”
			Breaking the deadlock, Siesta got between the two girls and handed them wine glasses.
			“I got ahold of an old bottle of Anjou wine! For now, shall we try some? Well? Well? Please put away those dreaded wands!”
			While still staring at each other, the two girls downed their wine.
			“Fu…”
			Once again, Siesta filled their glasses.
			Louise and Tabitha downed that as well. Emptying the first bottle, Siesta brought the next one out and continued pouring more wine.
