Alice Tale in Phantasmagoria
Dragon Contract
Welcome Fleuretti all the way to Mireus, the capital city.
On that road.
I switched from a carriage to a horse, and I watched the view all the time in the reins Mr. Theon gripped.
"Hehe, what are you depressed about?
"... I don't know"
"When you're an adventurer, it happens all the time."
"Yesterday's enemy is today's friend?
"Oh."
Turn from the horse going forward and watch the carriage.
Till is holding the reins with a sleepy face, with blackheads and Eclair and Fleuretti inside.
That kid is nostalgic for Eclair, and what I get into that is more of a needle...
"I know it's not a good idea to avoid it this way..."
"Really?
He said, "I don't think you should run."
"Ha, what's that? Running away will bring down even divine punishment?
Mr. Zion, who laughs at me, scratches his head and strokes me.
It feels distracted and good.
He narrowed his eyes like a cat and was exchanged, but accepted as he was, and kept his weight as he was.
I'm looking forward to secretly getting Mr. Theon on his horse.
It warms my heart anyway, whether I'm embraced or enveloped.
"But, Alice? Sometimes time solves things without bumping into each other from the front. In this case, isn't that particularly true? I need time to find a reason to convince myself to accept it."
"Is that what this is about?
I'm really going to try to rub my body so that it doesn't tear up.
He tickled his flank in return and said, "Wow!" He raised his voice and nearly fell horse.
Damn...
"He's just a kid. You, too?
"Buh."
Bloating your cheeks and protesting, but mentally, Mr. Scion still seems more mature than I am.
This could be described as the difference between a man and a woman.
No, well, lately, I feel like I've been a man or something less aware...
Like a trick or a word or something, even if you're unconscious, it's becoming like that...
I think the mind made the form, the form presided over the mind, or something like that.
I mean, when you look like a woman, you can say that my heart is really a man, and that's what happens.
"... by the way, sister, do I sometimes just overflow manhood, I knew it"
"I don't know what that means after all... but I guess it's surprising"
"Huh!? Where is it!?
I'm a little surprised, but glad!
"When Eclair's cold and twitchy, where Ilaria's teasing me, where the clan's tearing me mean? Haha, it's like my dad's laid on my mother's ass."
……
Manhood?
... What the hell is masculinity?
For one thing, I escaped reality and turned my consciousness to the scenery again with cloudy eyes.
As far as the grasslands are concerned, which are out of the reach of men, there are small trees that are not nearly as good as forests.
At the far western end there are magnificent mountain ranges.
That's the republic over there.
That mountain is the natural border.
There, the march may still be taking place at this time.
What's going on with the border now?
"... are you willing to get involved, Alice?
As you have taken into account my thoughts, Mr. Scion has asked me in the same tone that he tries.
Sure, it's ridiculous that I'm worried about my relationship with Fleuretti, going out on that bloody battlefield again.
"You won't know until then."
I wanted to help the clan before, but I wanted to help.
So how about this one?
"I knew... there were so many things I wanted to protect"
This is not a situation where we can run away and solve it anymore.
Besides, I can't tell you how beautiful it is right now.
I took a serious look at my hands.
A luxurious palm that I'm already used to seeing, bright white and can't even hold a sword.
But I've slaughtered many lives, it's the hands of adventurers...
"Don't feel bad, I'll go out with you. Ever."
I'm too dependable, I'm about to cry.
"I need your sister to... support me all the time or I'll have trouble. 'Cause I'm your sister."
"I don't know. I screwed up great for all my reasons, this"
"Wow, don't grope ~"
The thread of tension was loosened up reasonably well.
I can't help it now, and I've decided to do it.
Protect what you want.
"Worries don't kill you when you think of them."
"Oh, that's why it's safer to have Alice in the usual weather."
"... you're not complimenting me, are you?
"What are you talking about? That's the best compliment I've ever heard."
The roar mutilated a moment of conversation without any other love with such a sister.
The audio source is rear - carriage.
Turning around, a blue glowing dragon appeared there.
- Fleuretti!
◇ ■ ◇ ■ ◇
The carriage was destroyed and a giant figure appeared to mistake it for Oyama when seen up close.
It stands like a popped black scumbag and Eclair panicked.
What is it -? Before I asked, he showed himself.
"Carmel -!"
Over Fleuretti, a golden elf - Carmel - floats as we deploy the transfer formation.
Characterized by scornful eyes that made people look like little fools.
"Ugh, haha! Good day, Alice. You don't think we've settled that much, do you?
"Have you been escaping..."
"Escape? No, I don't know that useless. I'm me, not like I can't."
Self-inflicted...?
I don't know what you're talking about as if you're still blowing your head off.
Besides, this guy couldn't have used magic...?
"Hey! What are you doing to Letty? You want to be burned again!?
"Shut up, you inferior species. I've been collecting throwaway cats on behalf of their owners. It's a legitimate right. You can say it's a duty."
Carmel put some magic in her hand.
Moment after moment, Fleuretti barked to the point of tearing the atmosphere apart.
"Mmmm...... do I still have my pass as the summoner of Libra? They will give it to you."
Till landed directly next to our horse with ice on his scaffold.
He is roaring with a difficult face.
You're constantly struggling...
"Are you saying it has something to do with Libra after all... could it be nearby?
"That's not it. I told him there wasn't a third time. Next time you show up in front of a concubine, it's time to settle."
Fleuretti wiped out its rigid arms, and the trees that stood on the meadow blew away.
Again... insane.
"I'm not kidding! Now let Letty go! I can't compete squarely, you coward!
"Funny thing to say, you inferior species? You just have to win the battle, it's second to none. If it turns out, I don't care about the process."
Shit, Eclair's about to run out.
What's more, Carmel was certainly under house arrest in an elf in the ash forest.
I don't think he'll be released in a day or two.
The elder chief who got the diamond was also not exclusive, but he was a decent person...
"... is that an illusion or something?
"I guess not, it would be real"
Till also has a face that doesn't fall to his heart.
It's real over there, real over here...
Makina and Lynn?
No, I feel different about that, too.
"What do we do, Alice?
Mr. Theon pulled the knife.
No, if you're a thousand cherry blossoms, you'll cut off Fleuretti's body...
"Wait, that kid..."
"I know. We'll keep Letty attached, so we can do something about it."
"-That's all you got."
Nodding, scattering.
When I jumped into the air, I had ice scaffolding on my own where I wanted to land.
It is the same master's skill.
"Oh Alice, you're as beautiful as ever, aren't you? You want to come to me?
"You can't go! Now I've got a head start, I'm gonna set you up for a little moxibustion!
Eclair responded by flying next door before I could respond.
It floats freely with red lotus flame wings.
"Eclair, wow..."
"Yes, because that's good right now"
Hmm, Eclair staring at Carmel without a crush, but her cheeks were a little red.
The opposing Carmel stands on the magic formation.
That's a guy called the transfer team that Libra uses a lot.
"Hahaha! I'll tell you what's good, the border's gonna fall already, okay? You don't have time to sell oil here, do you? Just wrap your tail around it and get ready to run."
"You can't peddle the information you can't take back there."
Wilmington's soldiers are strong.
Probably outweighs the kingdom.
Not an easy country to succumb to.
Maria's here.
"It's always a new invention to overshadow a war station, isn't it? Alice, Master Libra is amazing. You can make a difference in this world."
Fleuretti is rampant on the ground, but Blackcrumb and Mr. Scion are well distracted.
I'd like to get some info over here, but Eclair's going to pop up now...
"Just a question, did you break out of that prison in there?
"Ugh, you're not, are you? I can't be that dumb. You can use magic."
Magic reaction at your fingertips - Blizer!
Flew sideways.
By way of example, there is an ice scaffold ahead.
Eclair swirls freely through the sky.
"That's quite a greeting."
"Ugh, magic is good, happy to follow?
I mean, Carmel over there and Carmel over here are different, and they're not related like Makina and Lynn.
And considering how inventions are, and what my ecological information is -- is that what this is about?
"Is it a clone"
"Around no."
I'm not even willing to hide it.
Of course it was a cynical issue in my world, but isn't it a contraindication for alchemists in this one?
Human body smelting...
The libra has finally blown the screws off your head, too.
"Alice, you have a flexible head ~? Ugh, I'm gonna want it more and more"
Looking next door, Eclair is losing her complexion.
This isn't normal after all.
But thinking about it makes a lot of connections.
I saw it in the woods that lead to the Republic, that chimera.
How it works for Raimia.
And Carmel.
Science - this is what happens when we lack morality in alchemy where we say it is in this world.
Well, morals and scientists can be conflicting...
"- Lightning!!
My magic, unleashed by surprise, was fogged by the blue field.
Fleuretti's field... and far more powerful than then.
"Oh, Alice, you look so cute, you're gonna make fun of me, right? No alarm, no gap."
"I've decided it would be better for you to leave here, so I can't forgive you."
I'm gonna do it, Alice?
And, as Eclair had asked with her gaze, she nodded strongly.
They use Fleuretti for good!
"Ma ~ I served my purpose, and I'll pull here ~. Some of you are scared?
Carmel grinned unconsciously as she glanced at Till, who was quietly sitting.
The magic formation shines and Carmel and Fleuretti's body thins.
Damn, this is really useful for getting away......!
"- Let them get away!! Alice!!"
I understood the intent.
Whatever you want, Eclair!!
"Release the wedge with my name! Unseal!"
Eclair's right eye is stained with red magic.
She "looked" at the magic formations aggressively and understood the structure.
"Break it!
The magic team was cancelled and Fleuretti materialized and fell to the ground.
The roar echoes.
... I see.
"Eh, okay! I can't do that. I've been busy with dragons, so I'll see you on the battlefield, Alice!
Carmel forwarded it as it was and disappeared.
Smiling.
I took Fleuretti, not Carmel, Eclair.
That Fleuretti is still growling as a dragon.
A subpoena seems to be pretty strong, it remains insane.
"Hey! Master!
"What, for a concubine? Demonic Little Girl."
"That, there's a way to get it back to sanity!
"Oh, boy. It's a bloody thing. You can fill it out with a contract that exceeds the subpoena. That's all I'm talking about."
That's...
"Ohh! Phew, be honored, Letty! This Eclair will be your Lord from now on!
"Hey Eclair!
"Ah, wow! Reason is good! This is intuitive, isn't it? Eclair had that feeling when she met that girl. Alice, didn't you feel anything when you met Ilia?
Huh, I only thought you were a beautiful kid then... lack of strength?
"It's not dangerous, Eclair, even though I haven't transferred yet!
"Letty may be special, but she's better than Ilaria, isn't she? And with the help of the devil's eye."
"But -!"
Eclair turned to me, trying to recruit me.
Tasted and swallowed the words.
"- Are you jealous?
"-"
I can see he was too poked at the core and went bright red out of embarrassment by accident.
"Pfft! What, did I hit you? Alice would be so cute."
"No, it's not, uh...!
I'm with you in wanting to help Fleuretti, and I'm sure I'm willing to worry about Eclair.
But I also feel the way I was told......!!
"What is this... me..."
Eclair leaned in on me when I hated myself.
"You're an idiot, Letty. It's like having a sister, isn't it? I'm not like you. Don't underestimate me, do you, Alice?"
"... don't you hate me?
"How does that happen...... I love it. Don't make me say it, idiot!
- No, no, no, maiden or me!!
"Shit, I'm back to sanity, Eclair. Forget about it now......! Forget it!"
"I was just there, don't push your face in the light for a second, hey"
I accidentally pushed Eclair's face away when I was stopping nearby.
Ahhh, I want water from my head. No!
"Ugh...... well fine. We've got a story together, and we'll do it!
Eclair's demon eyes glowed.
Though for a short time, it seems to me that Eclair is really getting used to controlling the demonic eye these days.
"Letty, this is Letty! Don't be rude. Turn around!
I looked to Eclair floating in the sky as Letty roared, who was rambling at the loss of clear orders.
I'm going to wear a brace now, and honestly, I'm going to twitch...
"What are you cowering about, Letty, everyone around you looks like enemies? 'Cause I feel really small."
Sure, Eclair is talking to Letty.
That is not the word to speak to a rambling, insane dragon.
"Grrrrrrrrrr......"
"What? I'm not scared of intimidation. Open your heart more, Letty. The world won't change, but if you do, the view you see will change. That's what it is!
Eclair's words have temperatures.
It weighs.
It makes you feel Eclair's lived life.
Letty got smaller like she was scared, that's what she looks like.
The dragon giant lacking power has no shadow to see.
What's there is asking for help, one girl.
"There's no one here to hurt you. The world looks even different, if you stay with Eclair and the others."
- Really?
Sure, I thought I heard that voice.
"Of course! Come on, come here, Letty! In the name of Eclair Sacramento, I hereby swear the dragon covenant! Be thy Lord, and walk the world with thee."
- Sir, I understand.
A blue flash runs with the voice of consent.
Explosive magic was releasing from Eclair's right eye and was being sucked into by Fleuretti.
"- Ugh, ku... what, this stuff! If you have infinite magic, let this make up for it, Demon Eye!
Eclair was a temperamental person, and watching, weirdly impressed or worried, eventually the light subsided and Letty returned to the girl's appearance.
Mr. Theon took Naked Letty back from the dragon to the girl.
"Humph... I can't do it anymore, maybe"
"Eclair!?
I hugged Eclair when she finally fell.
"Best wishes, Alice..."
For now I sealed Eclair's demonic eye, which I fell asleep satisfied exhausted.
"I've been too active lately Eclair...... hehe"
When I poked him in the puffy cheek of Eclair, who had some peaceful sleeping face, he roared like a tickle. Lovely.
Come on, I blew up the carriage, wondering how we're gonna get home?
