Fiancee Be Chosen By The Ring

"Hey, lady, there's a parcel on the express."

Castle of the Count of Porta, of Custodille Castle, in the living room of the Lord family.

Aurora, who worked in ticks and embroidery, raised her face to the hung voice as she soaked and warmed up in front of a fireplace decorated with bright green conifers with "Magi's Fruit" on shimmering gold fruit.

Seeing, Kai Phinnis, a cousin and Aurora escort, standing around the entrance to the living room, shakes a wrap about two bricks tightly wrapped in oil paper, a boom.

"Parcel? To me? I wonder who it is."

Looking up at the parcel in Kai's hand, Aurora looked suspicious and tilted her neck with Cotten.

It is true that today is the Winter Solstice Festival, but it was only after all the gifts were received by my family this morning - from my parents, from my grandmother and from my brother.

When Aurora with such a face blinked her eyes, Kai reviewed the tag that had been attached to the parcel and nodded, yeah.

"Definitely addressed to your daughter. It just arrived in the Knights' communications room."

"... it arrived today, which means it's a gift from the Winter Solstice Festival, maybe"

"I guess. By the way, the sender is' Felix il les-Clavis'"

Hearing the sender's name, Aurora jumps up. And when he laughed at Kai, he let him shake the parcel in the air.

"Good? Lady, it's like a 'family' frame already, huh?

"Wow, I gave it to you, too! Hey! Parcel, can you treat me a little more important?!

Throwing the embroidered frame in his hand into the cage he had placed beside him, Aurora jumped onto the parcel.

Yes, today, the shortest day of the year, the Winter Solstice.

As the legend says' demons hate light '(in fact, some statistics say that complex magic is more successful at night than at day), this day, said to be the most powerful demon of the year, is a holiday in the Kingdom of Wellbum under the name' Winter Solstice Festival '.

This "Winter Solstice Festival", the neighboring Northern Magic Power (Magna Maggia), is the most gorgeous festival day of the year, but it is generally a peaceful day in the Wellbum kingdom with families at home. It seems to be a very horrible day for people without magic, so stay out of the table as long as you can, but the origins are uncertain.

The people in the house adorn the fireplace with the "Magi fruit", also known as the conifer that symbolizes eternity and the crystal of the sun's light, so that the family can eat together and give each other a small gift.

"... well"

Grasping the parcel he had taken from Kai and gently returning to the room with his footsteps, Aurora, alone in a room where no one was present, unwrapped herself at ease and leaked her breath of admiration.

What emerged from the oil paper was a small enough box to hold it with one hand wrapped in paper with a beautiful pattern of marbles, and in it was a palm-sized hand mirror, wrapped in a soft blue velvet and shining in a ringing.

"Oh, my God, it's beautiful..."

There is no handshake, instead shaped like a Shizukuishi, and at its apex hangs a silk chamber that closely resembles the color of Felix's eyes.

The mirror is round, thick and matte, silver. The surface is smooth, not distorted or cloudy.

Covering the edges is a silver star flower carving, which is supported by a curve that seems to mimic the waves.

It is a hand mirror like a little piece of art.

Aurora tried to turn her hand mirror around as she leaked her exhale. On the back is carved the figure of a beautiful water fairy, beside which some sorcery brings together a slight blue light.

"It's Felix's magic..."

Aurora's white fingertips softly glanced at the magic team.

The color of magic, he said, resembles the color of the eyes. Some magicians say it represents the essence of the person in question. Felix's magic is a rugged, quiet blue with a slight purple color that closely resembles his eyes, occasionally intersecting the icy pale colors that float on the lake in the middle of winter.

"Knight of the Ice Moon, what did they say..."

You think you're a frozen knight, a silver moon knight, an ice-cold knight?

Known for his silent and hard beauty, he has been called by the people of the King's Capital for such a reputation for many years, but in the past year he has completely returned that reputation. Inside his heart, he had a passionate hiding, very similar to his harsh sister, a reputation for not being the blue of ice, but the color of the flame when it burned completely.

Remembering Felix, who was blatant without hiding his face that he was unwilling to that reputation, Aurora smiled furiously. His magic, coming from his fingertips, conveys a strange heat to Aurora, which is certainly cold, but also somewhere warm.

(I'm gonna miss you, I'm gonna be in trouble)

Aurora exhaled thinly and long.

It's the offseason of socializing. On top of that, Porta territory also has deep snow. Getting to Kravis territory takes a few extra days than usual with a soli or carriage, and Felix, the Kingsguard knight, doesn't have a long vacation in the first place. It was supposed to be packed in the royal palace, even if it was probably Winter Solstice Festival Day.

(You said you need to go back to your parents' house as the new year goes by, and I guess you can't rest for the Winter Solstice Festival instead)

I know a hundred things about not seeing you. But if you remember that gentle temperature, it's hard.

(If I become a family, I guess I'll see you at the Winter Solstice Festival)

I want to be a family soon, words like that came to mind, and Aurora shook her head with a hasty boom. I'm just a little embarrassed to say there's nobody in the room.

"... but what sorcery is being planted in this magic formation? With that said, you didn't see any cards. Did you sneak him in the back?

Placing the hand mirror on her knees, Aurora explores the box and the back of the wrapping paper as goso. Then it was suggested, modestly in the back, that a small card of light blue was secretly distorted, where the familiar calligraphy was carefully spelled out.

"What..." Happy Winter Solstice Festival. This mirror is called a "communications mirror". If your magic and my magic react, I can deliver my voice and appearance with magic equipment... "..." Communication Mirror "!?

Aurora was taken away from the card and peered into the mirror.

"Communications mirrors" are magic equipment used by magicians to keep in touch with each other, such as the military and the Chamber of Commerce. It is activated by speaking a certain word of euphemism with each other running their magic, allowing them to communicate with each other for only a short time. Very rare magic equipment, of course, a very expensive substitute.

The hard glowing mirrors just quietly reflect Aurora's green eyes.

"... that's right, it wouldn't have started without a word."

Returning her gaze to the card, Aurora reads on. There were proper recitals written there.

"Uh..." Silver Star Flower Ring, "and... ah!?

As soon as Aurora put her finger on the mirror and uttered the euphemism.

The mirror begins to glow with enough blindness to burn her eyes, and Aurora unwittingly closes her eyes.

Perhaps a few seconds if it's time. But when it seemed terribly long, and the back of the red-looking lid finally went back dark, Aurora opened her eyes about time. Then he notices a blurry figure on the mirror and rushes into it.

"What?"

It wasn't the beautiful, silver knight figure I was used to seeing there.

Four or five. Around that age, an angelically adorable looking child with blue eyes in her silver hair looked wide open and peered into this one.
