Alice Tale in Phantasmagoria

- Who's the strongest wizard in the world?

I don't even know who told you that.

Folks are easy to get on that kind of discerning propaganda.

Apparently the first wizard ever to be called that was an elf little girl.

A high elf girl told like a fairy tale - Lunaria Einshaura, the most powerful wizard in the first world.

It is said that the propaganda mentioned by the human being for political use was ridden by an elf who wanted to live quietly.

Because I don't think anyone wants to turn that mighty power on their enemies.

Since then, that most powerful fantasy will be inherited.

The strongest of any era is undefeated.

An unexplainable feat just because you have taken over from the wise.

It is also said that the name will not allow you to lose.

Fantasies handed down in that way still affect the world in many ways today.

- At least in the sixth generation, Tilbel Einshaura made his name clearly in the history of this world.

……

All this time, I was looking up at the same ceiling.

Heavy head.

I haven't done anything since I got to Wang Du's mansion.

Heavy rain that keeps falling from last night won't even deliver the light of the sun even though it's morning.

In a room with curtains closed like a darkroom, a noise that sounds like a scream.

It is as if the sorrows of heaven are overflowing with tears.

"Ma'am, are you there?

There was a regular knock in the room.

I don't feel like speaking up, I don't respond.

That's why they don't turn back either.

Are you worried if you're dead? Lord of voices, Ilia is forced into the room to see how things are going.

"Excuse me, ma'am. I can still see Lord Eclair today..."

……

I can't boil my energy.

Strength is the source of action.

That energizes people to move and keep them alive.

I don't have it right now.

Then I guess my vessel that exists here is a corpse.

"- Fine, Ilia. You can't be shy anymore."

A crimson girl with a pointy voice came into the room shaking off Ilaria's stillness.

It even comes to my side as I look up at the ceiling in bed.

"Come on, get up, Alice."

……

"Have you looked in the mirror the last few days? I don't think he's as angry as a dead man."

……

……

To me with no response, Eclair looked down with a particularly absurd, but flashy look on her voice.

"Don't even have a decent meal, do you know how worrying you are around?

That's true, my chest hurt.

That's why I wasn't strong enough to move.

"Eclair......"

"Eh."

The first voice I've had in a long time was a surprisingly squeamish one myself.

It's so miserable that I can't overlap my memories with the first poor voice I've ever heard in this world.

The two looked like a mixture of surprise and joy.

but the expression turned into anger and pity in the words that followed.

"Hold me."

"-!!

"Dear Eclair!!!

They grabbed my chest barn and forced me to wake up on my half.

Eclair's octagonal teeth are roaring like fangs.

Momentum that was about to get eaten to death even now - made me laugh unexpectedly.

――

Eclair, who saw it, thrust me like I'd cooled to something.

"Please, Master Eclair, please don't be abusive..."

"I'm not doing anything anymore."

Pale, Eclair turned his back and walked out.

I thought you were leaving as you were, but I stopped my leg in front of the door.

"- You want to hurt your heart and body."

I wonder, twist my neck.

I don't know what's in my heart.

"I'm honored you chose Eclair as your executor of punishment, but honestly, I can't afford it right now"

On closer look, Eclair was shaking like a dumped puppy unreliable and pointlessly sorry.

"I'm sorry... I couldn't help your loved ones, and Eclair was asleep. Nothing... can't be said"

Early on, Eclair left the room.

Fleuretti stood in the hallway.

He glanced at me and then chased Eclair away.

Watching it blurry, Ilia woke me up worthy of it.

I get pulled and my shoulder straps come off. Negrije is fixed and put to bed again.

……

Somehow, I saw Ilia's face wearing sheets for me.

It seemed like a very long time since I had turned my face properly.

I feel like a neighborhood is formed in the eyes of an Ilia with no gaps in everything.

Speaking of which, have I always had Ilia look after me?

I even have vague memories.

Ilia noticed her gaze and smiled softly at me.

"Isn't it cold?

I responded by shaking my head to the side.

Ilia looked distressed when it was unusual for her to react.

And once I got out to the hallway, now I pushed the service wagon and even came to the side table.

"Please, ma'am, it's time to eat… it's terrible, it's done"

Yeah, he's got a grunt and a squeaky voice.

I'm not even satisfied with the water...

"Yeah...... I'll eat later"

"I don't like it. Eat now on this occasion. I will not leave this place until then."

Ilia started preparing meals on her own.

Unbelievable stubbornness.

Seen, the table was handily set with sandwiches and soup.

In the sandwich, soup...

"This, meal..."

"... I thought you were rude. Even if it's memorable, if it's going to cheer the lady up."

......... This is the first meal I've ever served you out of the village to Till.

Just a little more salt...... I remember Till eating me with a full smile on his face.

- - Tears overflowed.

"... is, remember, Ilia? It's terrible, isn't it, Till? I can't believe I'm tired and I can't move, but I said," I don't care, do the evening shift. "It's a ghost, ghost."

"You were..."

I took the soup so I could reach for the memories.

Now, I realized that I couldn't help it as much as I thought.

It's debilitating.

To the point where Ilia pushed so hard, I guess I was the limit.

My hands trembled and I couldn't get my meal going. I saw me, and Ilia held the dishes for me.

He takes the spoon as it is and breathes it into the hot soup and cools it down.

"Forgive me."

The spoon that carried me straight to my mouth was poured in.

A salty dark eyed soup pours down my throat.

Heart and body warming that had cooled without knowing.

Two or three Shizukuishi fell into Ilia's hand, which remained in his mouth.

"Lady..."

"... oh, wow"

"Yes."

The body was honestly craving nourishment.

Naturally, I'm... alive.

I took a really long time and ate a slow meal.

Ilia repeated the same motion all the time and carried the soup to my mouth.

I even ate a sandwich.

Ilia's the only one who knows this flavor anymore.

After a meal I was obsessed with, I fell asleep violently.

For lying in bed all day, I don't even remember sleeping.

I left myself to the loose ends.

◇ ■ ◇ ■ ◇

Till's body, looking up at the sky with the rainbow, swayed.

I ran as fast as I could.

Even air resistance is horrible, scolding the body to reach it before it falls to the ground.

"Till!!!

Till's body I managed to hold was... surprisingly light.

Slowly I knocked my body down and knee pillow to get an easier position.

With his eyes meditating, Till was smiling thinly.

"You're tired, aren't you, Till? Shall we go to Wang Du immediately? I'll carry you while you sleep."

…………

Till opened his eyes.

Relieved, was between bundles.

I can't feel the glow in those eyes.

I'm also not sure if it reflects the world.

…………

"Because I will always be negative! I'm fine, this is training too!

I don't even want to shed it, but my tears drop zero and I get Till's cheek wet.

Till meditated his eyes again and laughed like trouble.

"Oh man... he's a jerk"

I could hear my voice, my chest clogged.

"Kufu, don't look at me like that... my pretty face is ruined"

Well, that would captivate what I see, and Till laughs with tea glare.

I was put my hand on my cheek and grabbed that hand.

"Hey, hey, Till! What am I supposed to do? What am I supposed to do?

Till's body was unlikely to be cold enough.

And I'm still being eroded by the magic of the Ether, which has been eroded since I was fighting.

As your body turns into ice.

"If you keep asking for answers, it won't be a loco thing. Think for yourself, that's how you'll live forever."

I heeled with all my might.

My head creaks.

Bite your lips and gather magic without strength.

Not desperate for such impotence, not stopping, Till watched with tender eyes.

"Oh Alice, will you listen to me?

I nodded many times.

"My childhood concubine did whatever she wanted with Est and played whatever she wanted. I also looked forward to diving through the strict rules inside."

I narrowed my eyes to nostalgia, even though I was a bad kid.

"One day, I was always with you, and there was no more Est I thought I would always be with you. I thought the incident had a single wing, so I put a hole in my concubine's heart."

I know what you're talking about, Mr. Est.

"That's how one person, while wandering the world, found... Kufu, was a young dark elf who looked as boring as a concubine"

That was a snowy, freezing winter day where everyone shut their doors and took their warmth, he said.

In front of a horse cabin on the outskirts of Cold Village, he said it was Libra who was begging.

"There is also a conscience that I couldn't throw away. I could also see the magical talent. Perhaps the primary reason, though, was to want an escort to bury the loneliness."

Till was smiling bitterly at himself.

I was wondering if it wasn't Libra who was saved then, not myself.

Then he said it was a fun day to lead Libra to beg for teachings.

Every day I traveled without talking alone, he said it was fun for Libra to come back with her original brightness and talk to me innocently.

"Kufu, memories are stronger than chains that connect demon wolves... I really let Todome. But I couldn't. I can't even correct the evil deeds of my daughter who is off the road and making others unhappy. Mind is really hard…"

Till laughs powerlessly when that's all there is to it.

"You can! Till can do it! Or I'll do it and show you! Watch, I won't have to annoy Till's hand, because I will set up a tight moxibustion for that clueless sister apprentice!!

Well, Till nodded satisfactorily.

"You don't have to do this. Don't even care about life or death, rather, you don't even have to fight. The cause of the concubine and libra is a circumstance here. Alice, it's more important that your lords be safe."

"Yikes! I've made up my mind, it's also a wuss to be chased around. The second disciple of Ice and Snow will show it to your eyes!

"Kufu... is it"

Power fell out of Till's hands.

The hand that was attached to his cheek fell to the ground powerless.

"Til......?

My heart, it's really annoying.

The more dizziness, the more palpitations.

"... to the Lord, that's a little early. It could make you carry a load. But I dare you. Alice, I can't think of a concubine but your Lord."

"Hey, anything! Say anything!!

"Kufu... did you take my word for it? Don't take a light-hearted look at the wizard's children..."

One day I said something like I heard, and Till muttered something like a spell in a small voice.

"I didn't lose the fight, but I couldn't win the memories. This name shall no longer be worthy of such things."

A pale magic formation floated around Till.

Beyond this period, I'm still going mad to see if I'm going to use magic.

And its pale magic became crystals, and it rose from Till's chest as a shining bead.

"... take it"

Nodding, with his hands so as to envelop him, the pale glow changed to silver when he touched my hand.

Not long after, the hot stuff sucked into my chest.

My body trembled in surprise at the burning heat.

"What, get used to it..."

Till stared at me with a sweet smile before shifting his gaze into the sky.

"There's just a rainbow bridge on it. It would be a good day to pass away."

Now my heart was about to stop.

"Yes, I don't like it. What are you talking about, Till! Please don't say anything stupid!

"Kufu... I'm sorry. Alice, I'll follow you loosely. You don't have to rush. 'Cause I'm ruining my time with Est."

I've messed up so much I don't know what to do anymore.

I want to do something, but I can't do anything.

- I love you, my daughter.

From Till's body, his powers fell out completely.

"... Huh?

The reality is, you don't even wait to think about it.

Till's body, staring down flashly, was solidified by the ethereal crystal - crushed and rose.

"Ahhh."

Give it back, Till's body, give it back...

Slipping through desperately waving hands, the crystals ascend into the sky.

As if the Rainbow Bridge is leading the Ethereal Crystal somewhere.

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!"

◇ ■ ◇ ■ ◇

- You're dreaming.

My head hurts.

I felt someone gently wiping something flowing down my cheek.

"Master... was this your destiny... no one thought you'd be gone..."

Someone beside me is enveloping me with a hand I missed that I wanted to protect.

"- This body, from all hardship, protects the lady". Never again will you let your daughter fall into the abyss of sorrow. "

In my wrapped hand, I felt a warm Shizuku fall.

I felt someone's thoughts pour in and I felt Till laugh like I was in trouble in my dreams.

- Hold on, you idiot apprentice.

That's how my mother was gently and gently laughing -
