Loves
Oooh...this is it. The item I needed. Not bad. Please bring me more stuff to increase my magic stat.
Oooh...you clearly know what's important for a mage. Hm, as thanks I'll show you some of my magic.
Likes
You must have used a "Find Himiko A Good Gift" spell. Hm, well done. I don't mind you giving me more stuff from now on.
Hmm...yes, this will do. Now my MP can recover. Well, it's still not enough to power a big spell...
OK
Hm? Was that for me? I didn't realize. If you can't give proper gifts, you'll have a lot of trouble in life.
Hm...offerings for the mighty Himiko...Yes, this will do. This thing has no magic. A gift for a mage should be magical, y'know?
Dislikes
Nyeeeh... I don't want it. I don't know what you want, but put that away already.
... Nyeeeh...I'm at a loss... What are you thinking giving me something like this?
Hates
Are you bullying me? You're bullying me cuz no one else is around, huh? I wanna turn you into a lowly worm with my magic.

Introduction[]
???
Nyeeeh... So are we stuck here?
Yeah...that's what it looks like...
But don't be scared, I'm sure we'll be out of this place in a jiffy!
I'm...not scared. It's just a pain. Something like this won't make me panic. Cuz...I'm a mage.
A mage?
Hm...that's right. I haven't told you guys yet.
Prepare to be amazed. Fall to your knees. I am Himiko Yumeno, the Ultimate Mage.
...
...
...
But...I'm officially called the Ultimate Magician.
Ohh, so you're a magician. You should've said that from the start.
I mean, it makes sense though. Since magic doesn't exist.
... Nyeeeh...magic does exist.
Huh?
Because...I am a mage.
You're just a magician, right?
Only on paper...
I'm known as a magician, but that's just a ruse. I am actually...a mage.
J-Just a ruse...?
You guys might not know them, but... There's a group called the Magic Castle. Also known as the Hall of Magicians, it's where the world's magic lovers gather.
I was the youngest person to ever win their Magician of the Year award.
That's pretty cool.
It's all a ruse.
They're keeping my magic a secret by disguising it as tricks. Because of this ruse, I became famous all over the world for performing tricks.
But...*sniffle*...I'm not a magician... I'm a mage... Nobody believes me...
There, there, don't be sad...
W-Well, you could show us your magic. Then we would believe you...
Oh, that's right! Help us out with your magic! Take us back to when we originally—
Magic isn't all-powerful... I can only do so much.
I-I see... Then...what can you do?
I can choose the card you picked, pull out coins, and release doves. Nyeeeh... If I get serious, I can even saw someone in half.
Those are just ordinary magic tricks!
Obtained Friendship Fragment! Himiko's Report Card has been updated based on your experience with her.
You answered me, so you must be listening already.
Nyeeeh...
Geez... She's been like this from the start... extremely lazy to the point of being troubling.
Hey, if you keep being this lazy, you'll miss out on all the fun stuff in life.
I don't need fun stuff... I just want to not do anything my whole life.
You can't call that living! I'm not saying you should go overboard... but at least try to hide your laziness in public.
Nyeeeh... That's a pain...
... It's no use... I need to suggest something or else she won't move.
Let's read a book in the library!
Then, let's read a book in the library!
Library...?
Oh! She sounds interested!
Going down stairs is a pain... Bring the books to me.
What!?
B-But I don't know what kind of books you like, so let's go together.
Any book is fine... Reading's a pain, so I'm just gonna eat them.
What are you, a goat!?
Nyeeeh... Even talking's a pain...
Let's go for a walk!
Then, let's go for a walk!
Taking a walk is the biggest pain in the world... Just...walking around for no reason...
That's the fun part, though. You can find meaning in pointless things.
I'm a mage, not a philosopher, so leave me alone...
Geez, it's not like I'm gonna force you to think!
Nyeeeh... Even talking's a pain...
Let's play a game in the Game Room!
Let's play a game in the Game Room!
Nyeh? A game...?
Yeah! I think I saw a billiard table in there, so let's try that.
I've never done that...
It's okay, don't worry! I'll teach you the rules!
Memorizing rules is a pain...
Geez, she would say that.
Nyeeeh... Even talking's a pain...
*sigh* How have you lived your life up till now?
With magic, of course. All problems can be solved with magic.
Then, can you use your magic to get us out of here?
W-Well the tides still aren't right. It's such a shame, but my magic can't help us for a while.
What does the tide have to do with magic?
After parting ways with Himiko, who was too lazy to move, I returned to my room.

Free Time Event 2[]
Spend time with Himiko
Nyeeeh...
You're the same as ever, Himiko.
This is normal for me... If you don't like it, talk to someone else...
It's not that I don't like it. It's just...I'm worried about your well-being...
There's no need to worry. Actually, why are you paying so much attention to me anyway?
Hm? Mmm... I just worry about you for some reason...
For some reason...? Are you...playing for the other team?
The other team? What do you mean by that?
If you don't get it, that means you probably aren't...
Huh? Now, I wanna know.
Don't worry about it. Explaining is a pain...
...I think I've heard you say the word "pain" enough times to last me a lifetime.
So if you're not playing for that team...
I see... You thought I'd be an easy target.
Huh? Easy target? I don't get that either.
Popular girls like you...
No, never mind... If you don't get it...it's fine...
Again? Fine...if you don't wanna talk about it, then you don't have to.
But anyway...why do you bother me so much? Is it because you're the Ultimate Magician?
I'm not a magician. I'm the Ultimate Mage.
Oh, sorry! Yeah, that.
Sheesh...my magic has brought smiles to many children, y'know?
Oooohhh! I got it! I know why you bother me so much, Himiko!
Huh? Are you...a mage, too?
No, not that... You talked about putting smiles on people's faces, right? I feel the same way. Seeing smiles on everyone's faces after my performances was so much fun. Don't you feel the same way, Himiko?
...
Yes... When I see children smiling because of my magic...it makes me happy. It's fun.
We're very similar in that sense, so I was concerned about you. We're alike.
We're not alike at all...
Our idea of happiness and enjoyment is the same...like our talents fit that role. Aside from our personality, I think we're more similar than you think.
Is that so? I don't really get it...
Himiko shook her head, but I could see the truth on her face, clear as day. We're probably alike.
In the same way I wanna escape this place so I can make people smile... You wanna perform your tricks in front of those kids, huh?
Uh, I mean...you wanna perform your *magic* and make those kids smile, right?
Hm...
I can't let my magic...waste away here. It'd disgrace my title of Ultimate Mage.
Right? Then, let's work together to escape from this place!
...
That sounds like a pain, so I'll leave that to you.
Whaaat!? Y-You're supposed to say, "Let's work together!" too! Seriously... Himiko sure likes to go at her own pace. But I feel like we became a lot closer... We know more about each other now.
After parting ways with Himiko, I returned to my room.
Himiko's Report Card has been updated based on your experience with her.
Anyway, what were we talking about? Why I'm a mage?
Real magic, sure.
Real magic, sure. I feel like this conversation will go nowhere if I disagree...
No, it's magic. How many times do I have to tell y—
Huh?
What?
It's magic...
Yes, that's right, I just said it was magic...
Yeah, you're right! It's magic, it's magic! Hmph!
She looks really happy...
Anyway, what were we talking about? Why I'm a mage?
Then show me some real magic.
Then show me some real magic, right now.
Nyeeeh... Well...that's... T-There's no mana here, so I can't. If you sacrificed yourself I could...
...I'd rather not be sacrificed, so I'll decline.
Oh, that's too bad. I guess you're just not passionate enough about magic.
Not passionate enough to sacrifice myself, maybe...
Anyway, what were we talking about? Why I'm a mage? Why are you asking about that?
Well, because... Isn't it strange that such a lazy girl would go through so much work for a magic trick?
It seems like magic requires a ton of work to prepare, so...
A typical amateur question. You don't need annoying preparations for magic.
I-I see...
I'm talented. Not relying on my talent would go against my master's teachings.
Master? You have a master, Himiko?
Nyeh...? Did I not tell you?
This is the first time I'm hearing it. So there are apprentice magicians?
Hm, that's right. My master was an amazing archmage...
Hey wait! You called me a magician again! I'm a mage!
I had to spend some time calming Himiko down, who had become quite pouty. I wonder what kind of person Himiko's master is...
Himiko's Report Card has been updated based on your experience with her.
Free Time Event 2[]
Spend time with Himiko
Nyeeeh...
She looks really bothered by something.
Um, Himiko? There's something I wanted to ask you.
Nyeeeh? My magic's a trade secret.
No, that's not it... I was wondering why you became a magician.
...
Ah, sorry, a "mage." You said you had a master, did he inspire you?
Hm, when I saw my master use his magic, I awakened as a mage.
...Um, just making sure, but... Did your master also say he was a mage, not a magician?
Huh? My master is known around the world as a legendary mage.
I see... Himiko insisting she's a "mage" is probably her master's influence.
The first time I saw my master was on the stage during his magic show. The magic he performed was miraculous... Seeing it triggered the magic powers sleeping within me to awaken. But I didn't yet have the skill to control such powerful magic...
Therefore, I studied under my master to control my own magic.
I-I see...
Fortunately, it only took a few years of training to become a full-fledged mage. Master let me help in his show as an assistant while I trained. My master taught me the fundamentals of magic. Because he trained me... People started calling me the Ultimate Mage.
She's actually theUltimate Magician, but I probably shouldn't bring that up.
My master learned his magic by studying around the world, you know? Extreme Wind Magic, "Levitation"... Extreme Space Magic, "Teleport"... Extreme Meat Magic, "Sawing A Person In Half"... and many more.
My master made them all look simple, but...they were hard for me to grasp. I want to teach you the basics, but the stars aren't aligned right now, so...
Ah, I see...
Nyeeeh, so in return, this Ultimate Mage will answer any question for you.
In any case...I'm sure your master is worried about you right now.
When people get sawed in half...
When people get sawed in half, how do you put them back together?
...
Nyeeeh...it's...with magic, you know? Like, you activate the cells and... W-Well something like that. You probably wouldn't get it...
Don't think, feel.
Is that right...?
In any case...I'm sure your master is worried about you right now.
What if a fly gets in your teleportation?
What happens if a fly touches you during teleportation...?
Hm... Then you'd be face to face with danger...
But these days, spells are warded against interference from flies.
Good idea.
Even the Sawing Spell. It's great for when you want to make flies go away.
I don't think you should be cutting up a body just to keep away flies...
In any case...I'm sure your master is worried about you right now.
...
Hm? Is something wrong? Himiko's mood changed...
Well, maybe... He might...be worried...
Himiko?
I'm too tired to talk. I'm going back to my room.
Ah, okay. See you later then...
I watched Himiko walk away, and I returned to my room. Himiko was acting strange for a minute there. I wonder what's wrong...

Free Time Event 3[]
Spend time with Himiko
Nyeh...
I feel as though I'm getting used to this...
Breathing makes me too tired...
Breathing!? You need to breathe or you'll die, you know!
It's fine...I'll just suck in oxygen with my magic...
That's impossible! I have to think of something that will perk her up, quick!
H-Hey, Himiko! Can you continue the story you were telling before?
The story from before? What was it again...?
When you became an apprentice, and you went up on stage with your master...
Nyeh? What's the point of telling you?
Point? No, that's not...
Well I guess you can't help it. A mystical mage is right in front of you. Oh well. That's just how it is. I'll show you how special mages are... And I'll teach you just how many hardships I had to go through...
Himiko closed her eyes and inhaled a deep breath. Then, she slowly began speaking.
As I traveled the world with my master, I realized something odd... When I was onstage, the audience was cheering for me, not my master... I thought...there's no way they'd be cheering for me over my master.
No way?
Of course not. My master is a great mage that exceeds even me. But I knew what was really happening.
What do you mean?
We were sent letters and gifts from fans all the time, but... They were all addressed to me. They...lied about how great I was and called my master old fashioned.
Huh...
They were terrible...to make a trap like that. I didn't want their praise.
A trap?
That's right. It was all a trap to make me leave my master. Someone trying to take my master's title of archmage did something so sneaky...
No, I don't think it's something nefarious like that... Nothing that complicated. Perhaps it was around that time that the apprentice succeeded her master... Himiko is theUltimate Magician, after all.
But...it worked.
It worked?
My master...got caught in the trap. The curse in the letters affected him and slowly drained him of his powers... People started to notice me more... I was invited to magic shows...
Most of them wanted to make me the headline, not my master.
Himiko stared at her feet, shoulders shaking. I couldn't tell if she was angry or sad...
Everyone's stupid! My master's the best mage! That's why I—his pupil—became such a great mage.
Why don't they get that!? There's no way I'm...better than my master.
Himiko... My voice sounded so unlike me, unusually sympathetic and consoling. Himiko must have known... She had outgrown her master.
And then...my master...
Yes...?
The story ends here.
Huh?
I'm tired of talking. I'm closed for today...
I watched Himiko walk away, and I returned to my room.

Free Time Event 4[]
Spend time with Himiko
Shuichi. I'm sorry I treated you like that.
Where's this apology coming from?
Before, I thought it was a pain to tell you about magic, but...
But now it's different! I've changed! I've decided to live looking forward! So I'm gonna tell you about magic without saying it's a pain.
I-I see... What is this? She's different than usual.
Isn't...that why you came here? To continue where we left off?
Ah, right, of course. I'd like to hear it, if that's okay? Perhaps there's no real point to this story at all.
Nyeh...I'm pleased to see you show so much interest in mages.
Himiko looked happy, but her expression quickly faded...
I couldn't stop my master from retiring. The person after his title got just what he wanted.
What? What do you mean?
One time...my master was about to start one of his shows... Way in the back of the audience, my master's enemy was working his scheme. Do you know about the mortal enemy of mages in this world?
Mortal enemy...?
They have the power to take away magic...an anti-mage.
This is starting to sound like a manga...
This anti-mage...took away my master's magic and made him fail.
What!?
My master was set up! There's no way he woulda failed otherwise! My golden age master wouldn't lose to an anti-mage!
But the audience turned against my master... So I tried to wake them up. On behalf of my master, I destroyed the anti-mage.
So Himiko tried to fix her master's mistakes, but that means...
My master wouldn't lose against someone I could defeat. Yes, I told them off. The show ended without any more problems. But...
When I went back to the green room, my master was gone... I haven't seen him since then...
Just as I thought... He was probably embarrassed to have Himiko fix his mistakes.
...
Himiko...none of that is your fault.
I know. I don't need your pity.
Sorry...
There's no need to apologize. I know what my master must've been thinking.
...
He probably...disappeared for my sake. He probably didn't want to get me involved in a mage power struggle... That's right... That musta been it.
Himiko...
I couldn't find the words to say... I watched Himiko walk away, her head hung low, and I returned to my room...

Free Time Event 5[]
Spend time with Himiko
Himiko. There's something I have to tell you, no matter what happens.
Wh-What? D-Don't tell me you fell for me!?
N-No! It's not that! It's something about your master.
Nyeh...my master?
Yes. I was thinking about your story... Perhaps your master is training in secret, so that he can perform with you again.
...
Himiko's face didn't change. She must be thinking the same thing. Maybe just hoping...
You...might be right...
Yes, I'm sure of it.
Yes, I'm sure of it.
How can you be so sure?
Do detectives have magic to read people's souls?
Himiko's expression brightened, just a little bit.
Haha, I wonder! Don't worry, I'll refrain from using that magic.
Nyeh, you're right... I don't need it either.
Well whatever... I don't care if you make assumptions.
...I'm sorry I said that, I wasn't thinking.
...I'm sorry I said that. I wasn't thinking.
If you're gonna apologize for it, then it'd be better if you just never said it...
I thought I was...butting in on something private.
You're worried about that now? Outside of a crisis, you're kinda dumb.
Ah...
Well whatever... I don't care if you make assumptions.
That's what I think
That's what I think.
Why did you say it like that? I mean, I guess it sounds detective-y...
I guess...I could have worded it a little better.
Well whatever... I don't care if you make assumptions.
... I can't even find my master using my magic. That's probably because he doesn't want me to find him. Like you said...maybe there's a reason. Maybe he's training in secret... I thought of that, too.
That's why you're focused on improving your magic.
Nyeh?
Your master is polishing up his magic too, Himiko. To perform with you again. That's why...you need to continue working hard as a magician. Magic tricks are what connect you to your master. That must be why she's never too lazy to do magic.
...Am I wrong?
...You're wrong.
Huh!?
It's not magic tricks, it's real magic!
Ah! Sorry! You're right, real magic!
That's right. Geez, when will you get it?
Well, anyway, we have to get out of here soon! So you can perform together!
Hm, you're right... I'm gonna be more positive and work harder. I'll support you with my magic. You can rely on me, okay?
Alright, Himiko. Thank you. Himiko and I are both focused on the same goal. Getting out of here. It's because of our bond that we can stand together like this... If I put my trust in this bond, I know we can overcome anything!
I watched Himiko walk away, and I returned to my room.
