Chapitre 518: It’s Not Even Worth Selling
Later that day, at Gabriel's house.
"What are you doing? Chatting with someone else?"
After flipping through her textbooks for a while, Gabriel, thinking she had finished reviewing, looked at Ren, who was playing with his phone, and took the initiative to talk to him.
"Yeah, Itsuki sent a message inviting us to attend the fireworks show."
Putting down his phone, Ren stared at Gabriel.
"...Ah, I might not be able to come back earlier. Since she invited you, you can go."
After hesitating for a moment, Gabriel said in the most casual tone possible.
She didn't tell Ren that she had the chance to come back for one hour, especially because she hadn't considered whether she wanted to use that opportunity.
From a perceptual perspective, she really wanted to use it.
After all, it's a fireworks show, and missing it means waiting for a whole year.
Moreover, she had promised to accompany him for a long time.
She didn't want to break the agreement.
But from a rational perspective, not using it is actually a good choice.
The main reason is that the price of this bracelet is too high, even though it's a birthday gift from Raphiel. It still feels uncomfortable to use it just like that.
It's a bit too extravagant.
Is it worth exchanging a bracelet that lasts for thousands of years for a one-hour opportunity?
Especially since next year doesn't mean there won't be a fireworks show; it's not impossible for her to join him next year.
This is where she struggles.
"Okay."
After a long silence, Ren accepted the reality that Gabriel couldn't come back.
"In that case, I promise to go with Itsuki."
In the past, Itsuki invited him. However, at that time, Ren wanted to go with Gabriel and was rejected.
"Promise, have fun then."
Gabriel reluctantly looked at the bracelet on her wrist.
She didn't want to promise him beforehand; otherwise, Ren would expect her to come back earlier as she said, and she wouldn't be able to participate in the fireworks show.
And even if she could come back earlier, she only had a maximum of one hour and wouldn't be able to do anything.
Therefore, in this case, it's better not to let him expect it.
If she really chooses to come back, maybe she can surprise him.
Thinking about this, Gabriel is a bit curious about Ren's expression when she comes back early.
This will definitely be surprising.
Picking up his phone again, Ren replied to Itsuki, telling her that he agreed.
After sighing, Gabriel took out her phone, intending to check the specific time of the fireworks show directly, so as not to miss the timing and not see anything.
"The fireworks show starts precisely at 8:30 PM. The time is right. The location is also right. That's what I checked earlier."
After confirming it personally, Gabriel felt much more relieved.
At this moment, a message from Raphiel appeared, and she unconsciously opened it to read.
Raphiel: [By the way, I forgot to tell you this afternoon. The protective teleportation of the teleportation bracelet is not completed all at once. It takes time to prepare, and it might consume a lot of magical power.]
Gabriel: [?]
Gabriel: [Why didn't you tell me about such an important thing earlier?]
Seeing the message sent by Raphiel, she felt a bit dissatisfied.
Something like this should have been explained clearly immediately; if stuck at 9 PM, it would be delayed for a long time.
Raphiel: [Forgot. Besides, it's been a long time since I gave you this bracelet as a birthday gift, so I can't remember some details clearly.]
Gabriel: [How long does it take to prepare?]
Raphiel: [Judging from your magical power, it takes five to ten minutes to guide and prepare. The guidance process will consume about two-thirds or more of your magical power.]
Gabriel: [Ten minutes? Then when I use it, won't it only block it for about fifty minutes?]
Initially, she didn't have much time, but it turns out that the guidance for this bracelet actually takes a long time.
Compared to this, the consumption of magical power is nothing.
A third of her magical power is enough for her.
Raphiel: [No choice, the magical power stored in that bracelet is too great, so it can only be channeled little by little. If activated instantly, heaven will notice the large magical fluctuation produced by the bracelet. This way, there's no point in providing protection.]
Raphiel: [Moreover, it takes time to release such strong magic that can temporarily block the surveillance of heaven and the demon world.]
Raphiel: [Don't worry, the preparation time is not included in the one-hour shield. You haven't been transferred to the human world, and the shield function won't be activated.]
Raphiel: [You just need to prepare in advance. For example, if you plan to teleport at 9 PM, you can start guiding at 8:50 PM.]
Raphiel sent several messages at once, explaining everything clearly.
Gabriel: [Okay, I remember.]
(Really, why did I think I would use that protection to teleport?)
Gabriel shook her head to clear her mind and not make decisions based on impulse.
(Even if I sell Kamikawa to this person, it's not worth this valuable teleportation bracelet. How can I use it?)
······
At the same time, at Shinomiya Residence.
"What do you mean Kamikawa-kun cares about this fireworks show?"
After hearing the news that Hayasaka just found out this afternoon, Kaguya wearing pajamas, asked.
She also knew about the fireworks show, but she didn't care.
Because she had never participated in such lively activities.
"Well, he'll look like this." Hayasaka believed in the judgment she made. "So, Kaguya-sama, you can try inviting him to the fireworks show. He'll definitely be happy, and the chances of him agreeing are high."
"Eh? Why should I invite him to the fireworks show?" Kaguya asked in a panic. "Is there any reason for me to support doing this?"
"You and Kamikawa-kun are friends. Isn't it normal for friends to go to a fireworks party together?" Hayasaka replied.
"No, not at all. I would never invite him to participate in the fireworks show."
Even though she was deeply moved by Hayasaka's proposal, Kaguya still vehemently refused.
No matter how she thought about it, she didn't want to take the initiative to invite him to the fireworks show.
It's like a confession!
