Chapter 2: Everyday Life at the Magical Ministry

Having heard during the harvest how passionate Fray and Ginger were about the Magical Ministry, and having had a party afterward to thank everyone for their hard work, I boarded a horse-drawn coach and headed home.

Though I had known that Fray looked up to Larna, I was surprised to hear that she wanted to work in the same department. But I suppose that was to be expected.

The same department as Larna. In other words, the Magical Tool Laboratory, where I was currently working.

Hmmm. So that brilliant and adorable Fray will be coming to work in our department...

Larna Smith, the department chief of the Magical Tool Laboratory, was herself so brilliant that she had joined the leadership of the Magical Ministry at an unusually young age, but she also had quite a strong personality. A total nerd for magic, she had a tendency to neglect anything not strictly related to the magic which drew her attention so powerfully. Working in the same department, I had become familiar with that aspect of her personality, and I also had to do a lot more work to make up for her neglect.

Even so, when push came to shove, she was a boss who could always be relied on to protect her subordinates. Besides, Larna was not the only peculiar person in the department. There was a cross-dressing muscular macho man, someone with far too little presence and a predisposition to getting lost, an extreme narcissist who had modified his uniform to be all sparkly, someone who could only make conversation by speaking through a plush toy, someone who wore a tank top all year round, and a mad scientist type who always wore a lab coat. We also had some flawed pretty boys with tragic backstories, like the previous student council president, and a former member of a gang of kidnappers from a foreign kingdom.

How could I describe the Magical Tool Laboratory, other than as a den of oddballs? That must have been one of the reasons that it was apparently the department most new employees least wanted to join.

The department was full of strange people, but they were also all good people, so it was a great place to work, but I wondered if Fray would be able to cope with so many intense personalities.

But, well, given how talented Fray was, I had a feeling that there was a high probability of her being scooped up by the Magic and Magical Powers Research Department, where Maria worked alongside her colleague Dewey. With Cyrus at its head, the members of that department were known as the star players of the Ministry. As the department’s staff were both very popular and very capable, all the promising candidates seemed to end up there.

Incidentally, both Dewey and Cyrus were romanceable characters in Fortune Lover II, and both of them had already fallen head over heels for Maria. In the game, they were fated to be opposed by Katarina, but under
