The maid showed me off and the piglets headed to the guest room. My father said he needed to talk to me, so I followed him.
On my way, it was your father's study.
Your father sat down, so I'll sit down, too.
A little, the door knocked.
When your father said "in," one of the maids came into the room pushing the cart.
The cart had a cake and tea made by the piglets today.
"Yeah? What, that white, square object?
"Lord Inota made the confectionery for the guests you called."
"Octopus? Doesn't confectionery mean fruit?
You are also right about what your father is saying. In our country, fruit is called confectionery.
"The piglet told me that in the piglet world, this is a treat, too."
"Well, well. Let's just say we get it."
Your father cuts it into bites with a fork and puts it in his mouth.
The moment I put it in my mouth, your father's eyes opened cuttingly.
"This yellow part is moist and soft but definitely resilient, and on top of that it's delicious, this white fuzzy object is becoming more familiar with the yellow part."
You're amazing.
Speaking of which, your father wasn't eating because he was staying at the Royal Palace when we prototyped it last time.
I'll put it in my mouth, too. Yeah, I knew it was delicious.
Your father eats all the cakes that were served on the plate, sips tea and takes a breath.
"This Keiki? I've never had this before, but it's wonderful and delicious. Eliza."
"Yeah, that's right"
When your father placed the tea on the saucer, he glanced at the maid.
The maid sees it, gratefully leaves the study.
I saw the maid leave, your father opens his mouth.
"What do you say? Have you ever been a little close to Lord Inota?
"Right. Well, I think we're getting pretty close."
"Pretty much,... seems to get along better than I thought"
Your father nods convinced of something.
I drink tea and ask what I have always cared about.
"Father, why did you invite the piglets to our house?
"Mmm, yeah, that's it"
Your father looks at me as he corrects his spine.
"I didn't tell you, but I called Lord Inota home for a reason"
"Reason? Maybe not to leak what the piglets make outside?
I thought it was it that called the piglets.
Honestly, as much as I broke the wall of the room I use to train magic, it's odd to call it home.
Magic control doesn't have to be our home to do it, and that's just what you can make them specialize in the Royal Palace.
Yet I would have called home to keep that knowledge from flowing outside.
"Sure, there's that too. Lord Inota gives me ideas of various things. It's only the demon bullet. It's only the centrifuge."
There are other things like bubbles and mayonnaise.
"I spoke to other people from different worlds, but the knowledge we all possessed fell apart"
"Saying?
"Some things we all knew, some expertise"
"Are you saying there's a little variation?
"That's right. Everyone seems to get the same education up to a certain age and then get their own knowledge."
"How are the piglets?
"Lord Inota has the expertise and the wisdom to explain it so that we can see it"
"Sure, piglets are smart."
That was convincing.
Piglets teach us how to know the other side of the world.
This cannot be done unless you are smart.
"Is there anything else you can say about that?
"Um, have you heard about the magic training room?"
"Yes."
"Do you know what kind of magic you used to break it?
"I don't know that far, but you must have unleashed destructive magic"
Your father shakes his head to the side.
"So it will be impossible to call home"
"... sure, right"
So, what kind of magic did you use to break the wall?
Your father turns his face closer and speaks with a voice not so loud.
"... it's compound magic"
"Huh?"
"Composite magic broke the wall."
"Oh, is that true ⁉"
"Definitely. Having said so myself, I went to the place where I had broken it, and examined the magic that was drifting around me, and found out. There was a magic of darkness and a magic of light."
And I heard the speech, and I lost my word.
Composite magic.
Simply put, it is a magic that fuses the magic of different attributes to use.
By multiplying each other's repulsive objects, they are several times more powerful than ordinary magic.
The theory itself has been around for hundreds of years, but no one has ever been able to use it.
It is difficult to control magic and endangers the user if they do poorly.
So no one tried to get to meet even if there was a theory per se.
Yet I didn't know that piglets were easy to do. ⁉
"Where I saw it, I said it could not add or subtract more power than magical control. So I said I couldn't do it, and they brought me to the mansion.
Cheng Cheng, that is, did your father call you to our house to hide the strength of the piglets?
But somehow, there is something else in my mind.
"Is there nothing else?
"That's..."
Your father makes a call. Is this telling you to keep your ears shut?
In the meantime, I looked over my ear.
Your father puts his face closer to his ear.
"I'm going to welcome Lord Inota to my home."
Huh? Welcome?
You think I'm going to adopt him?
"Does that mean adopting him?
I have a brother in the house, Bertri, and I'm going to adopt him.
How talented are you, so if you adopt him, you'll have problems with the inheritance?
"My adopted son is my son-in-law."
"Son-in-law adopted?"
I say son-in-law, Father. I'm the only one in my family who can say she's my daughter.
... eh ⁉ Could that be!
"Eliza, I'm going to welcome you as your son-in-law."
"Wow, is that mine, Muko?
I asked unexpectedly.
"Um, you're right. You seem to like it."
"Well, I like something else, it just fits the piglet."
"Yes, that's it. Eliza."
Your father points at me.
"Yes?"
"But by the time it suits people, it's proof that I like Lord Inota."
"Well, that's... there might be"
Honestly, I have a bad mouth, so men don't like me very much.
Conversely, it is popular with women for some reason. I don't know.
The piglet is flat no matter what I say, so I say different things.
Even after I said it, I thought this would hurt. He doesn't care at all.
I thought you might have bad ears, but you didn't.
I accept that my bad mouth is also my personality.
With it, I'm happy to burn my care.
"So, Eliza, there are many enemies, but good luck. My father will back you up."
"Yeah, yeah, thank you"
Specifically, the three I just called.
The moment you saw me, you made my face look like a ghost, even though you looked at the piglet with a smile that made the flowers ashamed.
At the point of putting on such a face, I can see those three favoring the piglets.
"I will try to make the piglets like me."
"Mm-hmm. That's intentional."
Concon.
At the same time we were done talking, the door was knocked.
"What's going on?
"Sir, a messenger has arrived from the royal palace."
"The messenger? Let me through."
When your father said so, an official came to the room.
"Something happened to the royal palace?
"Ha, earlier today, they said the armies of the Beasts, the Heavenly, the Dragon, the Ghost, and the Subraces each began invading our territory!
"Well, here we are at last"
"Yes, the Marquis and Captain Elizevia and the rest of the world in this mansion came to the royal palace as soon as possible, the king said."
"Okay. Thank you very much."
The messenger's man prayed and left the room.
"Father."
"Uhm. Try to head to the guest room"
We headed to the guest room.
