The Place Where I Was Sold as a Slave Was the Imperial Palace

＜Magic tools were the easiest＞

* * *

Rudy waddled to the space behind the stairs with the baby in his arms.

Since the building itself is in the form of a studio, the spaces are connected, but the entrance is created naturally due to the stairs and protruding walls.

When I went inside, there was a fairly large space.

Several wooden shelves were hung on both sides of the wall, and items such as baskets and bowls were placed sparsely in each compartment.

Most of it was covered with white dust.

There was also a shelf covered in mold by something unknown.

In the far corner, a lump tied tightly with a thin string hangs in the air.

It looked like it was smoked meat because there was a knife cut on one side, but I couldn’t tell for sure.

Modern Earthlings rarely get a chance to see raw smoked meat, so I honestly have no idea what it is.

Overall, most of the shelves were blandly empty.

“ha.”

Rudy involuntarily sighed and turned his gaze to the side.

On a low table in one corner, there was a round hot pot and silverware that looked like a magic lamp.

It seems to be the food that Bhimama and the princess ate today.

Rudy laid the princess down on the thick rug.

The princess wiggles her little hand and tries to catch him. Rudy dodged slightly. You can’t do anything while holding the baby.

I approached the table and tried to check the inside of the hot pot, but it was impossible with Rudy’s height. The table was too high for Rudy.

Rudy dragged a chair in the corner and stood on it.

I opened the lid of the hot pot and put it back down.

Quite heavy.

It was difficult to lift the lid with her small body, so she had no choice but to push the lid halfway to the side and peer inside.

There was half of the meaty stew left.

How did you eat this when you said you couldn’t use fire?

‘Couldn’t it be that they just ate it?’

If that’s the case, I’d be really sad.

Rudy moved his gaze to the side of the hot pot.

A silver bowl that resembled a magic lamp on the table contained vegetable soup.

It seems that the soup was made with tomatoes.

Coarsely sliced vegetables are half submerged in the reddish broth.

Other than that, it was just a few slices of roast meat and a loaf of bread.

“…”

Is this the food the king’s concubine ate?

No matter how much I live in a corner of the concubine as if I was abandoned, I am a non-mama, but it is really too much.

But the real problem lies elsewhere.

Rudy looked into the pantry with a feeling of despair.

No matter how much you search every nook and cranny, there is nothing for the baby to eat except what is on the table.

All I managed to find was half a bag of flour.

Incidentally, Rudy had nothing to eat.

Buradov said he would lack something, but he was lying. It wasn’t that there wasn’t enough, it wasn’t that there wasn’t anything at all.

At that time, a weak baby sound was heard from the entrance.

“Uhhhhh”

It seems that the princess who has been whining for a while is finally starting to cry.

Rudy hurried over to him and took the baby in his arms.

I sat down on the floor, put the baby on my lap, and patted it. The princess, who had been crying softly after a while, suddenly sneezed.

Come to think of it, it is cold inside the building with no heating at all. I put it down on the carpeted place in my own way, but the princess must have been cold too.

‘If I keep going like this, I’ll really freeze to death in the winter. Let’s check the magic tools for now.’

According to the nanny, you can boil or heat food with a magic tool.

If I could, I wanted to cook and feed the princess today. At least if you feed them warm water, they will feel better.

Rudy pulled back the curtains next to the food pantry as he had been told by his nanny.

There was a small space that looked like a dressing room.

There were shelves on the wall, just like food storage.

Several small boxes were placed on the shelf.

Rudy put the princess on the floor.

This time the baby started crying in earnest, but I couldn’t help it.

I closed the curtains to keep the noise down as much as possible and hurriedly approached the shelf to check the box.

When I opened a box, there was a red magic tool on the soft fabric.

It’s on the small side, slightly larger than Rudy’s palm.

However, it looked so strange that I wondered if magic tools were originally like this.

Like the slave necklace of the Duke of Watoringu, it is made by mixing clay with gem-like grains, but it is just a round stone shape.

Red lines were drawn around the edge of the stone shape.

The jewel grains spread throughout the magic tool seemed to be a mixture of various colors, but there seemed to be only red grains in that part.

The red line glistened in the light of the lantern.

There was a small hole in the front of the magic tool, and there was a small stick next to it.

If you’re seeing it for the first time, it’s probably hard to believe that it’s a magic tool.

No, I said that normal people can’t read it, so everyone knows.

In any case, what Rudy could tell as soon as he saw it was the letters written on it.

On the round, wide magic tool, this was written in Korean.

[Stove ; no authentication; available to anyone; Command “ignite” “extinguish”, automatic translation]

Stove···. It’s a magic tool, but it’s a gas stove.

If someone can understand this letter, they will surely be laughing with their belly button.

When I saw that [Stun Gun] was written on the slave collar, I thought that was the case, but I wonder if this was funny, I was stumped.

And if you’re going to write in Korean, write [gas stove] properly.

The commands are written in Korean as ignition and digestion, but looking at the automatic translation, it seems that both imperial and dicoquarian languages can be used.

Next to the Korean writing, there was a small picture drawn like an electric circuit, just like the slave necklace.

The circuit diagram was simple.

There was a sign on the front that meant a switch, and on the back, there was a small circle with the word [Magic Stone] written in Korean.

It feels like there is a magic stone in place of the battery.

‘The fact that the circuit is drawn means that there is a magic stone inside.’

I hear it’s not that heavy.

Rudy turned the round magic tool and looked at the back.

There seems to be a hole there too. It had a lid with a small hook.

When I pulled it out, a dainty-looking drawer came out. I thought it was a lid, but it was actually a space to put magic stones in.

Inside the small drawer was something that looked like a red bean.

‘Is this magic stone?

When I hold it in my hand and hold it in the light of a lantern, it is slightly transparent. It was like a small glass marble.

‘If I put magic into this…’

It was the moment I thought so.

Suddenly, the red light of the magic stone seemed to increase, and then it started to twinkle.

“uh···. uh?”

Magical power seems to have gone in?

Wanting to test it, I pushed the magic stone drawer back into the hole.

Insert a small stick into the hole that is the switch part.

As soon as the rod was inserted, a soft light emanated from the magic tool.

It seems to have been triggered.

The magic stone drawer, which could be inserted and removed just a moment ago, was fixed and did not move.

I got a little excited.

Rudy put the magic tool on the floor and said a small command.

“ignition!”

Suddenly, the entire magic tool became hot, and the fire came up like a gas stove.

“oh!”

The fire is bigger than you think. It’s not a gas stove, it’s not the level of a campfire. If you do this wrong, there will be a fire.

Rudy hurriedly exclaimed in surprise.

“digestion!”

As soon as his words fell, the fire disappeared as if it had never happened.

“ha.”

I’m glad that the magic tool works well. Since it was a piece of junk, if the command was not followed well, it would have been in big trouble.

“Now we have the fire secured.”

When I checked the other boxes, there were magic tools with [Capital] written on one box and several magic tools with [Light] written on the other box.

All are round and wide.

It was the same that there was a switch in front and a magic stone drawer in the back.

The other was the color of the magic stone.

The magic tool’s magic stone marked with the capital was blue, and the [light]’s magic stone was yellow.

It seems that each color of the magic stone can do something different.

There were also a few more boxes on the shelf, but the key didn’t reach them.

There are no chairs inside, so to get the box you have to get it from outside the heavens.

But it’s not like running away with your feet on a magic tool. You can check the rest later.

Feeding and washing the baby was the first priority.

Rudy poured magic into the magic stone in the [light] magic tool.

The operation method was the same as that of a gas stove magic tool. Just insert the stick and say the written command.

The commands were on and off.

When I turned on the light magic tool, the room became bright enough to be incomparable to the lantern.

It seemed that his eyes were dazzled by the sudden bright light. The princess closed her eyes and clenched her fists.

When Rudy went and hugged him, he grabbed his clothes until his fingers turned white.

“oh my god!”

I didn’t know it well under the dark lamplight, but when I saw it in bright light, the baby’s neck and wrists were all red.

My heart ached at the thought of how painful and painful it must have been.

“From now on, I will be with you, Princess.”

While muttering that, she takes the baby and goes out to the food storage.

The hardest part was what followed.

The tremendous task of pouring mana into a magic stone was easier than eating, but putting a pot on the stove was not possible.

A four-year-old can’t heat up a stew or put a large pot on the stove.

‘Such an irrational thing…’

There is fire and water, but I can’t use it.

Concerned, Rudy had no choice but to bring out the ‘capital’ magic tool.

I don’t know yet if I can drink the water that comes out of this magic tool.

Maybe you only use it for bathing.

At least I wanted to use it after verifying what went into my mouth, but there was no way to drink it right away.

Rudy sighed and looked at the words written on the magic tool.

The water supply was written a little differently than the light or gas stove.

[capital ; no authentication; available to anyone; automatic water level detection; command “cold water” “hot water”, automatic translation]

There is an additional word ‘auto-detection of the water level’.

Apparently, as long as it’s written in Korean, it seems that you can use whatever you want to define the magic tool’s performance.

I don’t know how the water comes out.

Rudy went out of the building with the capital magic tool.

After putting it down on the floor, I said [cold water], and then, mysteriously, the magic tool became damp, and water gradually began to come out.

I thought it would come out like a real capital because it was written as water, but it was just like water seeping out of the entire magic tool.

Let’s try a little, it was colorless and odorless plain water. It didn’t smell like a chemical that was unique to tap water.

Rudy rummaged through the food storage and pulled out a bowl.

When I put the tap water tool in it and said [hot water], the water started to fill the bowl little by little, hot enough to eat cup noodles.

The water continued to come out and stopped after filling the bowl to about 9 parts.

It didn’t even taste weird.

Hot water in general tap water is not drinkable water, but magic tools seem to be different.

Magic tool, it’s amazing. Wouldn’t this be more convenient than the modern Earth?

If you can write more letters, you might be able to make barley tea. If you can’t make barley tea because you don’t have barley, you can at least have some delicious mineral water.

When there was no problem even after about an hour after eating, Rudy turned on the hot water again.

Add some stew to it and feed the princess little by little.

The nanny said the princess wasn’t eating well, but as far as Rudy could see, that didn’t happen.

Every time I scooped it up with a spoon and put it close to my mouth, I grabbed it with both hands and ate it several times.

After eating for a while, the princess eventually fell asleep with a spoon in her mouth.

By that time, Rudy was also exhausted.

It was annoying and difficult to move to another place, so Rudy lay down on the corner of the food storage with the baby in his arms.

Probably because it hadn’t been washed, the carpet smelled soggy.

Rudy muttered [Lights out] with his eyes closed.

The lights that had been brightly illuminating the food warehouse a little while ago went off, and everything became quiet.

Rudy’s consciousness fell into darkness before he knew it while listening to the baby’s breathing sound.
