“Solomon’s treasure?”
“It's an awesome treasure right?”
“What's with those eyes...”

“My eyes don’t matter. Just tell me the answer first!”
“Hmm------…”
Scratch
p115
“Solomon was the King of Israel before 1000 B.C.”
- Prophet = someone who can hear the messages of god.
The people of Israel then, under the lead of the prophet Moses, left Egypt and created their very own country.
Wow---
I don’t wanna be a slave no more!!
Let’s run for it---
During their escape from Egypt, Moses obtained a stone tablet that had ten rules recorded on it from the Gods of Israel, meaning that he was bestowed with the Ten Commandments...
As long as you follow these ten rules, you shall be protected by the Gods...
Thank you for your great benevolence---
[Or more literally: I have come to receive your doctrine--- Or Doctrine received---]
Yay
And the previous King - Solomon’s father - King David, ordered King Solomon to build a temple to guard this stone tablet bearing the Ten Commandments in the capital of Israel, Jerusalem.
And so, as King Solomon obtained wisdom bestowed by the Gods, his country flourished, and he obtained immense wealth, allowing him to create a huge palace.
But the most important temple was in comparison, too small in size, causing the people to be unhappy with his actions.
When King Solomon died, Israel eventually split into two, the North and South districts Israel and was annihilated by foreign countries.
p116
“After that, the holy ark that was used to keep the Ten Commandments and treasures went missing. And after the years they were referred to by others as Solomon’s treasure.”
“What kinds of stuff are among these treasures?”
“The more famous one would probably be Solomon’s ring.”
“King Solomon used a ring to seal demons into pots and used its powers to make the sealed demons submit to him.”
If you are disobedient, I will seal you!
Pii-----------
Don’t people of olden days use wax to seal envelopes?
In order to not let the letter be lost, they will imprint a marking on their rings onto the wax.
I guess Zadou’s ancestors were probably sealed in the magical lamp and came from Babylonia to Japan through the Silk Road.
Hmph
Hmph
p117
“I originally speculated that the holy ark would be in Japan, I didn’t expect that it was the lamp that would be in Japan.”
“I guess my assumption is seriously flawed.”
“Wow, you are good
You are actually able to explain things to such details.”
“That is because I have been reading my father’s book collection since young.”
“That is why I believe that my knowledge in archeology is unbeatable.”
“I want to find Solomon’s treasure before my parents do to make them acknowledge my capabilities.”
“……
With such a mindset, no wonder you never noticed me…”
“?”
“It’s nothing! No matter what, that Solomon’s treasure is in Japan right?”
p118
“Okay!”
“Let us go find that Solomon’s treasure!”
“Hey...!
Why are you so enthusiastic about it all of a sudden?”
“Compared to being a powerful genie, isn’t it easier to become rich by finding treasure?”
“You intend to steal/rob/raid!?”
“Besides, though it is easy to talk about finding treasure, but actually...”
“I've been trying to seek clues related to its whereabouts since junior high, but it all came to naught.”
p119
“So commoners are dumber indeed!”
“What do you mean by that?”
“Didn’t the lamp travel to Japan through the Silk Road?”
“Then shouldn’t Solomon’s treasure have taken the same path?”
Ah
“So if we know where the magic lamp came from, we should be able to find clues pertaining to the whereabouts of Solomon’s treasure!”
“Yup, that’s right.”
p120
“You are pretty clever after all!”
Keep on praising me
“Heh heh of course!”
“So, before we find clues, we should still be down-to-earth and work on my genie level...”
Good bye
Hold fist
“Hey hey!”
“Even if I do summon you, you cannot do a thing!” [or you are still useless!]
“Oh yeah
I almost forgot the most important thing.”
Ah
Onii-chan
“I didn’t know that you and Kazumi Aika knew each other.”
“Ah! You sent her back with your car yesterday right?”
“Did she tell you that?”
p121
“Then did she tell you about anything else?”
“Other stuff?
No, I didn’t hear anything from her.”
“Really?”
“You really heard nothing from her?”
Doki… [or sound of heart-beat?]
“Yea... Yeah...”
“----------
Is it...”
Phew
“Oh yeah, one more thing!”
“?”
Dig
p122
“I found this book among the stuff you dumped at my house.”
“Ah, sorry about that!
That is the library book I've been looking for.”
“To think you were able to find it amidst that pile of stuff...”
Pff!
“Hmph
I've already packed it up for you!”
“Didn’t you say... you threw them away?”
“Don’t get the wrong idea! I'm not doing it for you!”
Niminy

“I just found it too much of an eyesore!”
“No matter what, you packed things up for me right?”
“Thanks.”
p123
“You...”
“That book was due last week! You better make sure you return it!”
Fly into a rage from shame [actual text 恼羞成怒 or be shamed to anger? Fly into rage through shame?]
Grr---
“Why are you throwing your temper around so agitatedly?”
?
Hmph
Hmph
p124
“Araki Jin...”
“Huh... Oh dorm head, what’s the matter?”
“I should be the one asking you that!

“I really did nothing!”
Oh...
“On the other hand, what is wrong with you? Dorm head.”

My two senpais.”
Shock
“You... Why did you follow us over here!?”
“Who would want that kind of disgusting thing?”
“Let’s go!”
“My love potion is bound to make anyone fall for you... I even threw in some burnt salamander dust into it!”
“That's probably the reason why people dislike it!”
“Ah senpai! Great timing.”
p127
“That book has exceeded the loaning period, please return it to me.”
Here
“Ah, sorry!”
“I would like to take a look at the original text of The Arabian Nights... I wonder if the library has it?”
“The Arabian Nights is it?”
“I got it, I will help you take a look at the storage of books for it.”
“You don’t have to.
I would be sorry if I troubled you to help me find it.”
“It’s okay. Please let me help.
Smaller text: Hohoho...”
Why are you laughing again?
“------
The two senpais earlier wanted to confess to Konoe-senpai but I tried to stop them...”

“Because dorm head is a hard type of person, he hates girls… Just looking at what happened just now tells it all.”
