◆ Shizufe
The day after we met with Memor, we boarded the boat and went up the Kish River.
The sky is clear and the sunlight reflects the water surface and sparkles.
The wind blowing through the river is pleasant.
But the people on my side don't seem to be.
"I really like Shizufe. Why are you taking on something that won't do you any good? And why are you taking me out?
Novis on my side blurred to me.
It looks like you're still dissatisfied with the content of this request.
The rewards are actually cheap and definitely not profitable at all.
Moreover, according to Thors' doctrine, two people must not be sacrificed to help one person. It is right that one person should be sacrificed to help two people.
This request is a case where two people may be sacrificed to help one person.
Therefore, Novis, a believer of Lord Toles, seems dissatisfied with the fact that I received this request.
"I already said that I'm sorry! I'll give you the reward later!!
I say angrily.
"I don't need that. I'm part of the Shizufe Warriors. I'll hang out with the Commander. But let me complain."
Novis waves his hand and refuses the reward.
Novis is, after all, a member of the Warriors' Corps, which I head.
Because I can't read or write when it comes to why he joined our warriors.
I should have practiced with you in the clay version when I was little, but I didn't know anything about myself at all.
From Novis' point of view, a good warrior doesn't have to learn to read or write. That's why he'll never learn to read or write again.
But that's why I started bringing Novis into our warriors' regiment.
There are two ways to register for the Freedom Warriors Association.
One is registered as an individual. The other is how to create or join a warrior regiment and register through that regiment.
Either way, in order to register, you must submit a document.
If you register as an individual, you must hire someone to write for you if you are unable to read or write.
In fact, there are people in the Republic of Ariadia who run a law clerk.
And when you register through the Warriors, when you organize an organization called the Warriors, you always have the obligation to include people who can read and write.
Therefore, if the commander can't read and write, he needs to have the secretary join the party.
By the way, some of the famous and big warriors don't fight.
The Freedom Warriors Association also recommends organizing a corps of warriors to minimize administrative burdens.
There are many advantages to building a Warrior Corps.
There are only six of us, including Novis, but we are also building a warrior regiment.
The name of the Warriors is "Warriors of the Beautiful Maiden".
When you sign up for the Warriors, you'll have to name the group, so that's what everyone thought.
I didn't notice it when I gave it a name, but when I think about it again, it's a very embarrassing name.
Therefore, it may be a disadvantage to not be very famous.
Novis is called a brave man, so he will have money, so I think he should hire a librarian.
But Novis wanted to join our warriors.
Perhaps it was a hassle to find a librarian. Sweet.
Well, I'm not one of the people I don't know, so I just wanted you to work in case of trouble, so I allowed you to join the club.
That's why I asked you to come with me this time, but I didn't expect you to complain so much.
"Mr. Novis. Because it's a request from the cute Shizufe. I think I should ask you a favor."
Did you hear what I'm saying? Shenna on the boat is embarrassing Novis.
"If that's what Shenna says, I can't help it. Of course, I'll do my best!!
Novis said in a deluded manner. The lack of motivation so far seems to be a lie.
"Absolutely..."
I have a headache.
"Still, I'm thrilled to go with Shenna!!
Novis uses his strength to make a grip.
That was a surprise indeed. I didn't think Mr Shenna was on the boat with me.
"By the way, what's going on today, Mr. Shenna? Are you going to lecture somewhere?
"No, it's not work. I thought I said I was traveling because I was a little worried. What's wrong with you, Mr. Shizufe?
"Oh, we're at work. I'm going to go and help the girl who was grabbed by Harpy."
I will explain the contents of the request.
It's not a job that needs to be kept secret. That won't be a problem.
I see. I hope you survive. "
"Yes"
We then talk about a lot of things.
It was hard for Novis to silence Shenna because she insisted on asking her if she had a lover.
Shizufe-san. How was your cruise?
Rijena walks in from over there.
"Thank you, Rijena. Let me take you on board."
I thank Regina.
Rijena is the captain of this ship.
Yesterday, while we were looking for a ship to get to our destination, I happened to meet Rijena.
When I heard the story, I found out that Rijena was loading up and heading towards her destination.
And when I asked you to get me on the boat along the way, you gave me your consent. And it's free.
I really appreciate the fact that it's just a request that costs more than a reward.
"It doesn't matter. Shizufe-san is not the only one on board."
I saw a group of Freedom Fighters aboard this ship besides us, as Rijena was right.
It seems so. What kind of warriors are you?
"The Green Warriors. Shizufe-san."
"The New Green Warriors!?
I shout unexpectedly.
The Green Warriors belonged to Finaeus. I can't believe we met here.
Suddenly she shouted, and Rijena looked at me in surprise.
"What's wrong? Is something wrong with the Green Warriors?
"No, actually...."
I explain the situation.
Was that so?
"I can't believe this happened....."
Rijena and Shenna meet face to face.
"Um, who are the Green Warriors?
I'm a little concerned about the Warriors.
"I don't care what they say. Only with the warriors I knew from Mr. Turkis... Ah, speaking of which, today, unlike usual, I am accompanied by a magician. Wouldn't Maddy know?
Rijena said with a troubled look.
Sure, if you're talking about the sorcerer, you'd better ask Maddy.
I wonder if that sorcerer's intel tells us anything about the Warriors?
The Maddie is in the cabin. I'll get him.
As a matter of fact, Maddie and Nora got sick when she got drunk on the boat, so I asked her to look at it with Leelia.
By the way, Kaina's sister is drunk and asleep. I've been watching this as well.
"That's right. I'm going to ask Maddy a little bit."
I will leave Rijena, Shenna and Novis and go to the cabin to get Maddie.
"Shizu-chan. I don't know all the magicians..."
Returning to the cabin and explaining the situation, Maddie looks delicate.
Although the number of magicians is small, there are still nearly a thousand in the populous Republic of Ariadia.
As expected, Maddie doesn't remember all of them.
"Still, could you look at him for a moment? Maybe someone I know."
"Yeah, well, yeah. It might be rude not to greet a stranger on board."
Go with Maddie to the Green Warriors.
The Green Warrior Corps has about 18 men. Some of the boys are about twelve or three years old.
Look at them a little further away.
Sooner or later, I found someone who looked like a magician. Rather, the person was clearly dressed as a magician, so it was easy to understand.
The man is reading a book a little away from the other freedom fighters.
"How do you know him?
But Maddie shakes his head.
"Yeah, I don't know. But from that robe, it could be the master."
"What? Are you a wizard?
Maddy nods when I ask.
"Yeah, it's not like my robe."
A magician is a title given by the Society of Magicians to a person who has the ability to teach magicians.
The magician is in a position to mentor other magicians. For this reason, it is thought to be the top sorcerer in the world.
By the way, the higher ranking title than the wizard is the wise man. I recently met a wise-haired black-haired chiyuki.
And there seems to be a difference between Loeb and a magician who doesn't have the title of a magician. Compared to Maddie's robe, I don't know the difference.
"But it's strange. I don't think there was a teacher in Ariadia who belonged to the sorcerers' association."
Maddy leans her neck.
I hear that there are fewer magicians than magicians, and fewer than 10 in the Republic of Ariadia.
Maddy seems to know the faces of all the teachers because of the small number.
"What are you talking about? Are you from outside the Ariad Alliance?
"I don't know, Shiz. Maybe I just don't know. Whatever I say, a lot of magicians do."
"I see...."
I hear that there are many strange magicians compared to others.
It seems that there are some people in my lab who don't come out.
"But it's rude not to greet the teacher, so let's go see him, Shiz."
Yes, it is.
Me and Maddie approach the man who will be the wizard.
As we approach, the wizard stops reading and looks up.
"What about you?
"I see you for the first time, Master. My name is Madia. I am as much an explorer of knowledge as a mentor. We met here on some edge. Could you tell me your first name?
After Maddie has spoken politely, thank you very much.
And wait for a response.
However, the magician does not answer and thinks a little.
"Um, Master?
I don't have any reaction, so how's Maddy holding up?
"Oh, I'm sorry, Magician Madia. I learned magic in Salia and qualified as a teacher. And it's a secret that I came here. Therefore, it is not permissible to name it. I want you to forgive me for being so rude."
The wizard apologizes.
"No! Master! I'm sorry to hear your name without knowing why!!
Maddy lowers her head.
It looks like this wizard is from the magical city of Salia. And there's probably something going on here.
It's no wonder Maddy doesn't know him.
But what are the circumstances in which it is not permissible to say a name?
Is that why you're acting with the Green Warriors?
Then we can't ask about the Green Warriors.
"What about you?
The wizard looks at me.
"Oh, this is my friend Sisferia. She is a Maiden of War, protected by the goddess Reina."
"Hmm, she's that Lena's maiden of war!? I'm sure you're wearing the helmet of a war maid."
The magician looks at the helmet with wings on the left and right that I wear.
I don't mind looking at it separately, but I think it would be disrespectful to abandon Lena. Should we be careful there?
"Master, do you know her?
"No, I don't know."
I'm going to get hurt.
"But I remember the miracle of the goddess Lena retreating from the black storm. That Dark Knight's magic waves were incredible. With his strength, we will be able to destroy not only the Republic of Ariadia, but also the countries of the Minon Plains. What was the magic that defeated the Dark Knight? Very interesting."
That's how the wizard looks far away.
Perhaps he remembers Lena's miracle.
When I remember that time too, I was moved and filled with chest.
With Reina's strength, the Dark Knight had no choice but to bend forward, suffer, and retreat.
It seems that the footage was seen by people all over the world. That's why the wizard saw the miracle.
"If that Lena War Maiden is really powerful. If I have a chance, I'd love to find out what that power is."
The wizard looks at me with interest.
However, it is troublesome to be seen with such eyes.
"I do have the power. However, this is not my power, but the power given to Lena. Reina's power is not a material for magic research."
I say in a slightly harsh tone.
It's too disrespectful to want to find out what Lana's capable of. I managed to contain my anger.
"Shackle your thoughts. It would destroy the possibilities."
The wizard says unfortunately.
"Thought is always free. Don't make contraindications in your thoughts, explore all possibilities...."
Maddy mutters.
I've heard that word from Maddy.
In the doctrine of Tona the Goddess of Knowledge and Books, which the sorcerers believe, they insist that the heart should be absolutely free.
Therefore, it seems that even suspicion of Tona is permissible under Tona's doctrine.
Honestly, I can't believe I doubt God.
"Exactly, Magician Madia. Creating contraindications will destroy possibilities. If you want to go higher, you should be allowed to use the power of the devil."
The magician laughs and says.
I feel some madness in those eyes.
"Oh no! The power of the devil! Biggest Contraindication!!
I shake my head.
"But War Maiden. That Sage Magius was a great damon. It's the power that caused all sorts of miracles."
The wizard smiles invincibly.
Magius the Great Sage is one of the founders of the Society of Magicians. He has lived for over 800 years and still leads the magicians who live in the magical city of Salia.
I also heard that Magius the Great Sage is an apostle of Totona and can use demons.
Some of them were actually helped by the devil.
I cannot believe that I am a believer of Feria and Lena, who forbid the power of the devil.
"What's going on? Master Wizard? Is there a problem?
I wonder if it was because I shouted, or if someone approached me.
A man who looks like a warrior anyway.
"Nothing, Commander. I was just talking to these guys a little bit."
The magician waves his hand at the approaching man.
I see a man called the commander. This man must be the commander of the Green Warriors.
Really? I am Warrior Commander Walrus of the Green Warriors. Lady, what's your name?
Walrus looks at me as worthy.
He's laughing, but he's not laughing behind his eyes. Outsiders, more difficult enemies than wizards.
"I...."
Shit, I don't want to say the names of the warriors!!
"She is Lord Sisferia, the Maiden of War of the Goddess Lena, Commander."
The Wizard will introduce me. Thank goodness.
"Oh, that goddess. What did the War Maiden want with the Magician?
"No, my fellow magician came to say hello because he saw the mentor. I accompany them."
That's what I see Maddie saying.
"I see. By the way, is the Maiden of War a job?
"Yes, I can't tell you because it's my client...."
I can't go to help the boy you abandoned.
"That's right. Neither can we say what we're asking for."
Walrus laughs at Hahaha.
Apparently, he wasn't suspicious.
"Well, here we are. I hope you don't have Lena's protection. Let's go, Maddie."
"Yeah, Shiz. Now, Master, if you have another chance, let's talk about knowledge."
We're leaving.
I tried to make contact because I was worried about the Green Warriors, but I didn't know anything in particular.
But the magician was curious.
"Hmm, Maddie. I'm talking about the wizard, don't you mind?
"Oh, I see. The teachers I know are almost like that, but when it comes to magic, there's no prospect...."
The higher the magician, the less visibility there is when it comes to magic research.
That's why I hear a lot of magicians get off the road.
"No, that's not it. I smelled something really bad when I approached the wizard."
When I approached the wizard the other day, I smelled something terrible.
And the smell was a strong smell that multiplied the magic potion Master Dekius had. Could it be a coincidence?
"Oh, that's right, I'm sure it smells like magic potion. Many other magicians have a similar smell."
"Eh, is that so?
"Yeah, well, that smell was a little intense."
I don't know as many magicians as Maddie. If Maddy says so, perhaps the magician who smells like that is normal.
"If so, it's my fault. Shall we go back?
We were going back to everybody.
◆ Wizard Kirius
The magician Madia and the maiden Sisferia leave.
"No, I didn't think that Lena's War Maiden was riding with her."
I looked at the women the captain left and said.
Yes, Captain Walrus.
It was originally Lena's fault that I saw such an eye.
Master Talaboss was killed by Lena's Light Warrior.
I also heard that Walrus' ex-husband, Atlana, was wiped out by Lena.
The battle maiden may well be seen as an enemy.
I was a little worried about Harpy, so I followed the captains, but I didn't think I'd meet the War Maiden.
"Damn, that goddess is killing me, motherfucker."
Walrus slapped his tongue.
"But, Commander. It is not a good idea to reach out to them. We should keep it down here."
"I know. I know. I know."
Walrus looked helpless.
"Well, that's good. Now, Commander, why don't you continue your journey?"
