The cutting-edge of the dagger that Noine holds leaves a thin line on the commander-like man's neck. So I realize - this man is not wounded and unable to move by swords and fights.

My hair, and water dripping down my bed and floor. What the agonizing voice I heard earlier meant - that I was drowned in water 'in this room'.

"Are you going to fight me? Your magic has some advantages over me, but it's hard for you to think you can win it."

"Provoking our Dr. Glass is suicidal. If you're the water magician on Zirconia's side, I'm willing to kill you right now."

Mr. Presha is right, taking the center of gravity in such a way that he can roll out the spear at any time. Did Noyne also feel that Mr. Presha was not the only one, and the grin disappeared from his face.

- On the contrary, it also looks blue. I've seen a lot of different patients, and I can sense some mental state from the patient's breathing and slight tremors.

"... Presha, keep it down. If this magician tries to deceive us, I can understand that now."

His Highness Astina says pale, but the words are cold - like an ice blade.

His Royal Highness, as a general who leads an army, has a sense of self-blame for the loss of many soldiers. Maybe there's a thought that if you discuss Noyne here, you'll be rewarded by a dead soldier.

Even I think so. Why did you betray the country and lend a hand in the Zirconia invasion? Without Noine, I wonder if the soldiers would have had to die.

"From Her Royal Highness, I feel magic... you taught me magic...?

"I can't answer that question right now. Me and you were in different classes, and I don't have any contacts in particular... I'm just saying we were in the same college. But I can't just leave what you're doing behind. If you have betrayed your country, I ask you to atone for your sins"

Noyne says nothing and listens to me.

And she moves - she drops the knife in her hand and raises her hands.

"... at that time, I had to oh. If that sounds like an excuse, I don't mind having you slaughtered here."

"Eh... betray our country and say shah!

Receiving Mr. Presha's fierce anger from the front, Noyne turns a blind eye as if he couldn't stand it.

His Highness Astina puts his hand on the sword and relative to Noin without a minute's gap. Noyne, who had two strong men in front of him, no longer had to be nervous about moving one fingertip.

"... your treatment is for His Highness to decide. I can't even guess what happened. If you were ordered to dive into Zirconia by an irreversible opponent... your position would be jeopardized if you didn't cooperate with Zirconia."

"Whatever the circumstances, it's a betrayal, more than it's done to Zirconia."

Mr Presha says as he pushes his anger to death. She still seemed to think she had to argue for noise here.

In front of that killing spirit, Noyne closes her eyes - that look makes her feel like she's giving up.

"When someone broke into this fort and found out it was a magician, I found out that someone came from Lazennaia. I was originally called by this man... to General Alejandro's deputy, Bail"

"... you want me to start with an excuse?

Asked by Mr. Presha, Noyne smiles faintly - and shakes his head small.

"Gu......!

Everyone on this occasion would not have imagined what happened the next moment.

Noyne curbs her mouth and bleeds. And I realize - that the moment she tried to talk, some of her body had magic that wasn't hers.

"No way...... they lodged 'The Underworld Spirit' and sent him to Zirconia with it......?

"... it would be a joke... I only saw the grades I had made at the college to the extent of how many pawns' they 'could use. Without realizing it, I became a great enemy of my country."

After Noin finishes saying it, he bleeds again. A disastrous magic power, felt from her chest - it was due to the "Underworld Spirit," which existed to erode and curse people, unlike the "Spirit," which covenants with magicians to help them.

The Underworld Spirit lives not in the Spirit Realm, but in another world called the Underworld Spirit Realm. The current College of Silvana forbids magic formations to summon the Spirit of the Underworld, as well as signs to dwell in man, to learn, and books describing the Spirit of the Underworld are forbidden and placed in a sealed library.

However, the Divine Tree Euselisis is alert to the presence of the Spirit as an enemy to the Spirit. She warns us - that a being harmless to the living and the living resides in the body of the noin in front of us.

"... you took sides with your enemies because you don't want to die? If you think I can't help it, I can't forgive you."

"When it's all over, you can kill me. I never run...... at the end of the day, I want to die doing what I want. Alejandro and Bail will tell the people who only saw me as a 'woman' listening to anything they say about me that I'm not a tool."

Who sent Noyne to Zirconia - if there was anyone who lived the underworld in her who became a court magician.

It follows that the 'court magicians' I admired were no longer a group of people who served the royal family and exercised magic to defend their country, but those who chose no means to achieve their purpose.
