The Blond Male Lead is Too Much - Chapter 109

He left me waiting for a moment and then disappeared for a while, then came back with a familiar red leather book.
“Just two hours. Security is tight these days, so we need to quickly return the banned books to their original place.”
“Is there a separate storage space?”
“The Imperial Library. I also snuck from there before.”
Ah, I see.
After thanking the crown prince, I sat on the sofa in his office and read a book.
Shit, shit, shit.
I kept flipping through the pages, and finally stopped when I found what I wanted.
[The great demon Ludwald loves to turn humans into insignificant beings. He especially enjoys turning them into mindless creatures, and often places curses related to this.
If you want to lift the curse of the creature, you must create an antidote with the following ingredients:
Spring water from the Saha Mountains filled with the breath of fairies, golden butterfly wings bathed in sunlight, silver stag antlers, and a 150-year-old magic stone.
If you miss even one of these, it can cause serious side effects, so be careful.]
I calmly compared the materials written in the book with the materials used by Matapju.
There was also a fairy spring, golden butterfly wings, and stag antlers.
There was just one thing missing: the 150-year-old magic stone.
‘So that’s why the side effects occurred.’
After figuring out the cause, I returned the forbidden book and greeted the crown prince.
“Thank you, Your Majesty. Then I will take my leave now.”
“… …Are we just going to continue like this? Just like that?”
“Yes, I’m busy.”
We had to move quickly because we had to complete the antidote within six days.
“Huh, so you weren’t making up excuses to see me at all.”
I returned to the Duke’s residence without hearing the Crown Prince’s mutterings.
Fortunately, when I checked earlier, the magic tower had three ingredients in abundance, so there were extras.
Since it means that I only need to find a 150-year-old magic stone, I first looked through the mining records of my Shasha magic mine.
‘… … Yeah, I thought it wouldn’t happen.’
If it’s already been discovered, wouldn’t the mission be too easy to solve?
I also investigated other magic mines. However, due to the nature of magic stones being sold immediately after mining, it was difficult to find magic stones that were 150 years old, let alone 50 years old.
‘I’m going crazy.’
As I held my head and sat in agony, something warm and soft touched my legs.
I looked down and saw Geumdongi rubbing her head against my leg.
“Oh my, our little kitty. Did you come to see your big sister?”
“Meow.”
“Oh, so cute.”
Maybe it was because he knew that he was completely in cat form now. He really looked like a gold-plated dragon rather than a magic tower.
He lifted the golden bowl and stroked its head and back before asking.
“Sister, would you like to play with me?”
“Meow.”
“Yeah, yeah. Just a minute.”
I took out the toy I had bought for Geumdongi a while ago.
As he waved the feathered stick back and forth, Geumdongi’s eyes lit up with curiosity. Then he ran towards the toy at full speed.
As I watched him tapping the stick with his small front paws and catching it gently, I moved the stick and Geumdongi quickly followed suit.
After playing like that for a while, I got tired, put the toy down, and lay down.
Geumdongi came up to me gently, lifted her paw, and pressed my cheek.
‘How anxious must the Lord of the Tower be right now? No, perhaps he has lost his human reason and is not thinking at all.’
He looked at Geumdongi, who was groaning as he stroked the back of her neck, and said.
“It’s okay, Geumdong-ah. I’ll definitely make an antidote for you. If you can’t return to the Magic Tower Lord, I’ll raise you.”
Even though Matapju couldn’t understand human speech right now, I wanted to reassure him in my own way.
When I tapped the tip of her moist nose with my finger, Geumdong tilted her head, not understanding what I was saying.
“Meow?”
Although she was really cute, at the same time, I couldn’t help but miss the human Matopju.
“Ha… … I miss you, Lord Matap. I really hope you return to being Lord Matap soon.”
I guess I have to work hard to make that happen?
I mustered up my courage and started searching for the 150-year-old magic stone again. But since I wasn’t making any progress, I decided to call in someone who seemed to be a magic stone expert and ask them.
“Did you call, Miss?”
That man was none other than our Shasha mine foreman, Michael.
“You said you’ve only worked in the magic mines up until now? So you know a lot about magic stones, right?”
“Yes, please ask and I will do my best to answer.”

“Is there a 150-year-old magic stone in the world?”
Michael blinked, perhaps because the question was so unexpected, and then answered.
“It probably won’t be among those already mined. But if it’s been buried underground for a very long time and hasn’t been discovered, it’s quite possible.”
“Really? Then, is there a magic mine that hasn’t mined magic stones for that long?”
“Yes… … I think so.”
I jumped to my feet, excited by Michael’s affirmation.
“Where is it? Tell me right now!”
“This is Shasha Magwang.”
“huh……?”
He calmly explained to me, who was looking puzzled.
“The Baron Silver Mine was maintained for about 170 years and was recently discovered to be the Shasha Magic Mine, so wouldn’t there be some unmined magic stones that are that old?”
“… … That’s right. Excluding us, all the existing magic lights have been around for less than a hundred years.”
We had a high probability of having the oldest magic stone.
“Michael, how do you check the age of the stone?”
“It will come out if you use the magic stone identification tool.”
“good.”
I sent him back with one request.
And immediately he called out the sword.
“Handmaid, pack your bags. I have somewhere to go.”
“What kind of tone is that? Where?”
“My magic light.”
He answered refreshingly and smiled brightly. I will go dig up the 150-year-old magic stone myself.

Shasha Magwang was located in the mountains about a day away from the capital.
We got off the carriage and walked up to the mine entrance, where Michael was waiting for us with his gear.
It was thanks to him that I had asked him to prepare in advance so that I could explore the mine myself.
“… … Miss, are you sure you’re okay?”
Michael, who had handed me the magic stone detector and the detector, asked me with concern.
The detector tells you where the magic stone is, and the detector determines the state of the magic stone.
“Yeah, it’s okay. Thank you.”
He answered, confirming that both magic tools were working normally.
The sword was carried on the shoulder in a bag containing shovels, pickaxes, and other implements used to mine the magic stone.
“Even though it’s a mine, it’s almost like a cave. It’s very large inside, so be careful not to get lost.”
He waved his hand to Michael, who had been insisting until the end.
“If we don’t show up by tomorrow, report us just in case.”
“Yes, I understand.”
We turned our backs on him and slowly entered the dark mine.
Thanks to the torches hanging on the walls here and there, it wasn’t as dark inside as I thought.
“It might be dangerous,” asked Carl, who was leading the way.
“Master, why are you personally taking on such a dangerous task?”
“There are two reasons for that.”
I answered seriously.
“First of all, I don’t have much patience right now.”
Three days out of the one-week deadline have already passed.
Now, there were only four days left, including today. It was too short a time to just sit still and wait for the 150-year-old magic stone to be dug up.
“Secondly, I don’t want to ask other people to do dangerous work that requires going deep into the mine.”
Especially when hiring Michael, he had boasted loudly that he would prioritize human lives above all else.
And then I felt embarrassed to suddenly kick out someone else for the mission.
Karl, who had been quietly listening to what I had to say, turned his head and looked at me.
“What am I, then?”
“Umm, who wants to go to heaven with me?”
“This is ridiculous.”
He looked forward again, laughing as if he found it absurd.
Actually, I didn’t want to bring a knife. It was dangerous, so I preferred to be alone.
‘This kid, whenever he threatens to take me with him wherever he goes.’
Honestly, considering Carl’s personality, I thought he would chase after me or get angry later, so I just went along with him.
For a while we walked in silence. Then Carl coughed and opened his mouth slightly.
“What… is this just me?”
