I Want to Be a Receptionist in the Magic World CHAPTER 5 Part 1

UNTIL I BECAME A RECEPTIONIST

CHAPTER 5 Part 1

Translator: Masakibluei

Currently, I'm in the fourth year of my studies. I am 16 years old now.

I grow way taller than when I first came to school. I think my chest also grows as well. I used to be flat-chested. However, Nike was quite reserved about it while Benjamin mocked me and said “its still a precipitous cliff.” (translator note: it means she is still flat-chested like a steep cliff).

Don’t just make it up about others like that, I know myself best after all.

Mine has a little boing in it though it's smaller than normal. Don’t add salt to other people’s wounds either.

Nanari: “Hey Marisa, what are you doing?”

Marisa:” I’m fixing up my make up. I’m going to invite Alves-sama to go on vacation together.”

Nanari: “Fuuu. That guy huh.”

At present, I’m nearly finished with my fourth year and is starting to enter the fifth year. However, we will have a long vacation first before we officially start our fifth year.

Marisa: “Women like us, when we have a guy that we like we can be even more beautiful. You also have a pretty face to begin with. Why don’t you start to have a little interest in romance? Your pretty blue hair and green eyes will become useless.”

Nanari:” Uuun”

Marisa sits on my bed while looking at the hand mirror on her hand. Both of us used to dislike each other. It never comes in my mind that I will be able to become friends with one of the self-arrogant noble girls. But here we are, having a small frivolous banter like a friend does. Somehow, we become friend. Well, I think it will be tiring if we are still on a bad term after 3 or 4 years in the same class. Being friends like this is really good. Truly.

The trigger that starts my friendship with the noble girls was something that is trivial. On that day, one of the noble girls was being rejected by Lockman. She did not want to return to the dorm and was crying by herself. Seeing her like that, I did not want to see her brooding over that guy. Thus, I called her.

Nanari: “Hey.”

Girl: “What do you want? Are you laughing at me?”

Nanari: “No, not really. Here.”

I cast a spell, ‘Karaza’ and made a sphere of snowflake. The sphere of snowflake appeared in front of the eyes of the girl. Inside the sphere, snow was falling and with illusion magic, a beautiful ice flower bloomed inside the sphere. It was a marjoram flower. The meaning of the flower is ‘your smile is wonderful’.

Nanari: “Astro Vega (starlight)”

For the final touch, a small amount of light is added into the ice sphere.

Girl: “It’s beautiful.”

Nanari:” It’s alright if you need some time to cry, but I think your smiling face is cuter. Personally, I don’t understand what do you like about him. I don’t have any favorable feelings about him after all and I have no love experience. “

The girl stared at the ice sphere.

Nanari: “I will leave this here. It will disappear by tomorrow anyway.”

Girl: “Eh?”

Nanari: “Everyone at the dorm is certainly worried about you. Then see you tomorrow.”

I finished saying those words and left the girl alone. She was not a close friend of mine, so I did not persuade her further to come back with me to the dorm. If I brought her with me, other noble girls would say something about it. In the first place, staying with her was also not a good idea because she probably wanted some time alone. It could not be helped. There is a teacher who is patrolling around, so she will definitely return soon.

Girl: “Hei, Hell”

But the very next day, that girl approached me and told me words of gratitude. ‘Thanks, Hell’, that’s what she said.

I just replied to her in a calm manner, “Ah? It’s nothing.” Although it seemed like I was not perturbed, actually I was extremely happy at heart. I was not being completely honest, but at that time, I did not feel any irritation. Since that day, I gradually became a part of the girls’ group in the class and now I am getting along with everyone. Occasionally, some of them may give me some sarcasm remarks, but it's different from before. Those remarks do not carry hateful feelings like before, but it carries some kind of affection in it. Moreover, the person that becomes really close to me now is Marisa. You never know what will happen in your life.

Marisa: “There is a party at the Royal Palace during the holiday. Alves-sama will be there since he is the son of Duke Michael Lockman. “

Nanari: “Hooo”

Soon, we have to leave the dorm and go home, why are you playing around in someone else room.

Marisa astutely visits my room to play and applies makeup on her face. Waist-length caramel color hair, red-brown eyes with dolls like fake eyelashes, white skin and pink cheeks. No matter how you look at it, she looks amazing. It can not be called exactly as pretty or cute but she looks like a doll. (translator note: what do you mean Nanari? Can we conclude that she looks like that old porcelain doll??)

Red dress has also become her trademark. I think red color suits her. Its passionate just like her and her magic type is also fire. It’s a great match.

Nike: “Benjamin, can you organize your luggage?”

Benjamin: “Wait! I will be done soon.”

Listening to Nike’s voice, Benjamin quickly goes to the wardrobe.

Because I will go back to the dorm once the vacation is finished, I don’t bring that many belongings with me. The things that I bring back with me are light stuff and textbooks. There is also homework to make a new magic circle during the holiday. Once I go home, I have to start doing it right away.

Nike who is still in the dressing room also does not bring that much stuff with her. She only brings some stuff that is enough to be put inside her handbag. Meanwhile, Benjamin who wants to bring a lot of change clothes with her is currently making a mountain of luggage in our room. Even though it's good to have a lot of clothes with, but is that really necessary? I think what she has is may more than enough clothes to wear during the holiday.

Marisa: “Looks like Alves-sama older brother, Bill Lockman is going to inherit the ducal house. Eldest daughter like me needs to approach him as a potential husband material!”

Nanari: “Ha?”

Marisa’s luggage is also here in this room. The quantity is even more than Benjamin’s. There are two more mountains of luggage compare to hers. Practically most of them consist of dresses and makeup tools. All of Marisa’s belongings can fill up a whole room. Since she is also sharing with two other nobles girl, I wonder if they also have the same amount of belongings. If all of their belongings are compiled, are they going to be fit? Aah, But during the third year, we studied space manipulation magic. They might use that magic to make it work.

Marisa: “After graduating from school, I’m also planning to join the knighthood. Apparently, it’s a tough competition.”

Nanari: “He”

Marisa:” Can you please listen more seriously?! That’s why you are a flat-chested woman!”

Nanari: “Shut up!”

Marisa who is displeased that I pay no attention to her talk throws some salt into my wound. Marisa proudly boasts her own chest on my face. In this respect, I am unable to retort back. In the end, I can only sulk about it. Are there only enemies here in this room?

Nike: “Marisa, Nanari, it's soon the time to go home. Let’s quickly gather at the school gate.”

Nanari: “Ah, it's time already?”

Nike comes out from the bathroom to check if everyone is ready. Marisa puts down her hand mirror and goes down from the bed. Then she puts all of her make up tools and handkerchief inside her luggage. Benjamin still has not finished yet with her luggage. She has not come out of the wardrobe.

Is it time to go home now? Time sure flies really fast.

Translator note:
I feel that Nanari is not a trustworthy source of information or she maybe not the type of person who is able to describe things clearly. I tried to look up into an image that can describe Marisa:
