I Was a Loner, but My Class Got Summoned to Another World…-Chapter 111: Hero of Illusion
Logan woke up early the next day, he felt tired for some reason.
It wasn’t long before he noticed why.
Within his bed, one of his creatures did not properly fit anymore.
"I forgot you like to nightcrawl…" Logan said just loud enough so the sleeping kid who was hugging Luna. Read chapters at novelbuddy
"Yes, you… I even placed your bed in my room, Krexa…" Logan said, a little angry as he had no more time to sleep.
[Tired… more sleep] she said as she cuddled with Luna even more.
"Well… maybe you can but I can’t," Logan yawned while letting his creatures sleep a little more, especially since Krexa did not correctly use her nightwear.
Luckily, everything was covered, just a little overexposed.
As he got up, he went to his personal bathroom within his room, readied and dressed himself.
Looking at his face in the mirror, he noticed that a small beard was growing—one he had to shave every day, as everything grew fast in this world.
His hair, for example, had to be cut once a week.
At first, he hoped it wasn’t something bad, but Rubina took it as a normal occurrence in this world, meaning he shouldn’t worry.
Soon, he was with the others in the dining room.
Breakfast was being prepared, and as he ordered, even the servants ate at the large table he had made.
His biggest rule for his territory was against discrimination.
It was the one rule no one dared to disobey, besides the normal ones everyone should logically follow.
"Well then, what is everyone going to do today?" Logan asked his usual morning question to see if he would be needed that day in the estate.
"I finished my work yesterday. I was hoping to take a day off today if nothing urgent is needed. There are a few new taverns I wanted to visit. They are bringing in stuff from Gargos. If handled right, we can even make a good buck getting a stable supply line from them and reselling to the capital." Kai was the first one to say his part.
"That might work, but it would also put us at odds with our neighbors who have done that for years. We can, however, try adding our own flavor to each drink and resell that," a chef who made Logan’s favorite food pitched in.
"That should be interesting. As for my day… I will be going with the new lieutenant and adding possible checkpoints to reduce the number of problems we are having with the new residents," Chloe added before taking a spoonful of cake.
"We luckily finished most of the paperwork. I will just have it sent out before tending to the farm animals. A quick check should suffice. I will be free after that." Rubina added while sitting and waiting for the others to finish.
"If you don’t mind us, we will be taking a walk in hopes of spotting my master around your town, Logan…" Ruben said, and Logan consented to his decision with a nod.
As soon as Logan was about to add his input, a butler walked in with a girl behind him.
Within the room, only Ruben stood up as if he knew the girl.

"Marie! What are you doing here?"
Logan’s brain then went into overdrive.
Marie, a short girl who looked of Hispanic descent, thin and unassuming, was nowhere near as close as the girl before him.
Tall, thin, beautiful, with long silky black hair, she looked like a model, far from what he remembered.
Logan looked at the girl with apprehension, causing Ruben, who had gauged Logan’s character in the few hours he had gotten to know the boy to say something to the girl.
"Marie, we are all classmates here. You shouldn’t use your magic. You should know it only works on those who have not seen you before," Ruben said as the girl nodded.
Her form shrank; her features went from beautiful to more cute and petite.
Her long hair was the only thing that stayed the same.
"Sorry about that, Logan. I thought you did not care enough to remember me…" Marie apologized.
"It’s fine… why don’t you sit down? Order something if you wish," Logan said while nodding, remembering that within the class, someone had the class of Illusionist.
"Thanks, I just ate… but I won’t refuse a good dessert," the girl said as she asked for a sweet.
"Well, how about you tell us why you’re here…" Logan asked while still busy with his own sweet, wondering why they had another within the class in his land.
"About that, I was told I could find… what I needed here to finish a certain spell.
I just wanted to ask you directly, Logan, since my sources tell me you are able to get pure mana crystals."
"Yes… I did have a few, but I wonder who told you that…?" Logan asked, trying to hide his surprise.
He recalled those who should have known and knew that they would not easily expose what he sold, especially when it was something so important.
"About that, well, he told me he was someone who worked for the merchant’s guild leader Harold in Midar," Marie said while cleaning cream from her spoon.
Logan looked at both Ruben and then Marie, alternating his gaze a few times as he recalled that Ruben’s master’s assistant was the one who said he would be here.
As for Marie, an assistant of the very professional Harold, he didn’t think would release such important information.
He felt something off but decided to leave it for later.
"About the crystal, I don’t have one at this moment… but may I ask why you need it and what you would give for it?" Logan questioned while cleaning his mouth with a napkin.
His habits were becoming more like Earl Rosengard, as he secretly admired the elegant gestures Rubina’s father showed when he stayed in their mansion.
"About that… I wanted to see if I could work for you while I try to finish my project. As for the rest…being a fellow hero, I also amassed money while staying in the kingdom. Actually, with my magic, I only had to display a few videos, movies, and such from our world. That made me a good amount of money," Marie finished without really wanting to expose her reason.
"Work for me?" Logan repeated, wondering how she would be able to help him.
"Sure, I am not in a rush while I work on my project. As for the rest of your money, if you do decide to sell me one of the crystals, you can receive it in payments. While I do make a lot, it’s a monthly payment, or so I asked to squeeze more from every person who wants to use what I created."
Marie then took out a small crystal, which displayed a movie that only two people besides the girl using magic in the room knew.
It was about a ship that had sunk in the sea after it hit a large iceberg.
"Wow, and here I thought I was rolling in money, creating luxury weapons and armor for nobles…" Ruben added, knowing that while stealing copyright material, Marie could gain passive income for years to come.
"Well… entertainment is hard to come by, and with it, we can improve this town by having something that others will be forced to come to see," Logan thought about a few possibilities, maybe even creating this world’s Hollywood in his small town.
"About the crystal, we might be getting a few soon. I will have to ask you to wait if you do want to make the deal. Like Ruben, you are welcome to stay here… we at least have more than enough rooms for guests." Logan smiled while thinking about the money he would get in the future; he could almost imagine the dragon he would receive and riding it into the sky.
"Good, I will accept your offer, Logan. Also… you seem very different; it suits you," Marie said while making a crystal show an image of a boy who sat in the back of the room looking out the window.
