Alice Tale in Phantasmagoria
Thread to Desire
"Was it good, Master Alice? I didn't have to take it on."
"Well, I know. Don't look so scared, Ilia."
On the way home, Ilaria stopped by to tell me that it was too late to get to the inn.
Easy, easy.
Kranseska's desire is to make his face known on the cypress stage as his own name.
That's what I mean.
If so, this martial arts tournament is in the middle of a power struggle.
Perhaps all those in power of the forces opposed to Kranseska are going to come up with a substitute weapon.
"This country may be rougher than I thought. It must have been in Ilia's report yesterday, right?
"… I do hear that multiple powerful people are after each other for the seat of the next Regent"
"Sure, the king collapsed a few years ago, and now there's a little prince?
"Yes, it's Prince Dior. The Regent is Lord Romus. Old, but trustworthy, loyal minister of the former king."
"Kranseska told the granddaughter of that lord Romus, no doubt?
"Clancesca Wilmington. Definitely the granddaughter of Roms Wilmington"
I don't think I'm the only one with a capable right arm, Kranseska.
Well, I didn't even think I'd be gathering this much information in my free time...
Ilia, it's too awesome.
The information in the note made my eyes peel.
Thanks to this, I didn't have to be a dove to be danced on Clancesca's palm.
... Well, there's no guarantee that I haven't grabbed it either.
"You're one of the three most famous houses, aren't you?
"Yes, the Austiers, the Sacramentos, the Wilmingtons. This is the power map of the current king's capital. It will remain a feud."
Corrupt royal nobility, or...
Till says spicy, but I'd like to believe a little more, but hey.
"What about the man who was behind Klanceska?
"I'm sorry. I don't know."
"I have no choice. I only had one day."
That must be Ilia for me.
He sounds like a crook, but he's good now.
"The house of Kranseska is moderate against the war against the Republic. Is this true?
"At least, Lord Romus' will seems to be so"
"It is the current state of affairs here that Lord Romus is down sick," he said.
Ilia nods.
"The Austians were a militant hardliner, and the Sacramento family didn't know what was going on."
But the lords of the two houses are magnificent.
"Jesus. And the Wilmington family. Lady Kranseska's parents died years ago in an accident."
"Kranseska's motive...... is it revenge?
"I wonder if it's possible."
A show of power here.
No wonder you think so...
More than that, I'm concerned about Kranseska's words at the end just now.
"... republican dog. Oh! I'm sorry, Cyra? I'm not saying it in an unpleasant way!
"No! I know, I believe Alice."
"Thank you, Cyra"
Cyra, who walked next to Ilia opposite, shook her head with momentum.
In order not to betray this trust, we have to do what we can.
I don't want to see the battle of the Beasts standing on the arrow, etc.
No, actually, that can't be all it takes.
"If a republican spy enters... the Austia family, is it?
"If it is an assumption that the Republic wants to wage war"
"Premise..."
Do the republicans think they can win if they wage war?
Is there such an overwhelming difference in power?
I've just come to this world, so it's like I don't know what's going on between nations.
"You still don't know what you're doing."
Do you want to follow me?
"Lady, are you sure you want to compete in the fight?
"As much as a power dispute on the table, let me take it on for you. The battle of Kranseska is behind it, right?
"I know what you're saying. But is that person trustworthy in the first place?
"Hehe."
What I laughed at, Ilaria tilted her neck.
"I'm sorry, no? Maybe Kransezka said the same thing."
That butler said everything.
"The Wilmington family is a trio of famous houses. The lady is Kranseska. I want to avoid the war. You don't have a hand in not using this coincidence, do you?
"If that's what the lady says."
Coincidence?
By chance, I don't feel like it.
It's a little hard to think that Kranseska made that noise.
When I come up with the back...... etc, that's what's going to make me human distrust like Till.
"In the meantime, as the name of the Wilmington family, I will show you the power of the table. I'll leave the numbers to Kranseska."
"It's possible that the danger is imminent for the lady."
"Protect me, Ilia?
"Sounds rewarding"
Ilia laughs bitterly.
Do you even do it with a 'pretend' on your palm with precision?
Not while each other's interests are in agreement.
White gold coins are fascinating!
"So, who cared about the current conversation?
"Two, sir."
"Huh."
Is that Klanceska?
Or...
"And the lady."
"Hmm?"
"The lady, too, was a surprisingly scary person, I thought today"
Ha-ha-ha!
Fight more fear, and respect but good! Ilia!
"Oh, no. It may still be my fault"
"... right"
By the way, I want to win the fight.
Nothing, I don't care about winning or losing...... I'm not going to decide on cool.
Defeat the enemies in line.
Preparation is important for that.
To those who fail to prepare, the Goddess of Victory does not smile.
And the first thing that's missing from me right now, it's...
"It's a weapon!
Return to the inn. Quickly, I'll hold an operation meeting, etc.
I slap my hands on my desk to make a scene.
It hurt so bad!
"Oh, my God."
Only Cyra agrees with me modestly.
So, the other two...
"Master, I'm sorry. With me attached."
"I don't mind. I thought this one would definitely do it. I'm not just bored."
"Yeah, that's sort of"
"There! I hear you!
Don't slap people in the pussy with dignity in the back!?
Ilia had her head bowed for some reason to Till she fell asleep in bed.
... Was this guy really asleep all day?
"... Anyway, it's not about looking back at the past that matters now. Looking back at the past, it doesn't do anything!
"Are you left-handed?"
……
Ilia is cold.
"Kusu, I'm sorry, ma'am. Please don't make a sinking face like that. I am the lady's shield. There is no falsehood in the words sworn."
"... will you follow me?
"Absolutely."
"Even as a fool?
"It's adorable."
"... what if I told you I was black?
"It's black. My Lady."
With his hands on his own chest, Ilia responds as he swears.
I felt like I could do it, even if I turned the whole world against my enemies.
"Uh... are we in the wrong place? Master..."
"Leave him alone. Get used to it right away."
"Oh yeah...?
With Cyra's bewildered voice and Till's stretch-mixed voice, I went back to sanity.
No, no, I didn't mean to lose my mind!
"Kohon, anyway. Finding my weapon is a prerequisite. From what I hear, do you have weapons for combat competitions in front of you?
"Yeah, you're right"
It's also my hand to go around the weapons store tomorrow from one end...
View Cyra.
Picon, my ears jumped.
Are you used to Ilia and Till too, Cyra no longer in the room, no hats, no hairbands.
"Cyra, is blacksmithing something you can't do without equipment?
"No! That's not true. Materials matter more than that."
"For example, can you even do the material in this inn room?
"It's possible!
Cyra's eyes shine because she's talking about her area of expertise.
"Heh, so what do you mean by blacksmith equipment like you saw in the city of Ruffin?
"That's a kiln to make mass-produced products. I also make knives and bamboo."
"I see... anything unmarked like being lined up in an arms store, maybe?
"Yes! Mass production in that kiln! Of course, you can't do it without the material, so there are limits."
I see.
"I do think that with a kiln, I can contribute to Mr. Alice's income as well..."
"Mm-hmm, that's well, you're first to think. As things stand, we need Cyra to build our weapons and protective equipment."
"Yes, sir! Leave it to me!
Looks happy ~.
Makes me smile when I'm followed.
"Mr. Alice, what do you use? After all, is it a rod?
"I don't have the strength, I can't do anything heavy..."
But you do.
I have a few thoughts.
"I need you to make a glove."
