She Professed Herself The Pupil Of The Wiseman (WN)
333 Light in the woods, peace in the Spirit
Three hundred and thirty-three.
Reception room at the Latonatraya branch of the Fiftieth Bell Federation. It was a really simple room with only tables and chairs.
"First of all, welcome to the Ratnatraya branch of the Fifty Bells Federation. I'm Klaus, the branch manager."
I just sat face-to-face there, Klaus, the branch manager who said so. Anyway, I was in the mood for that greeting.
"I'm not Mira. I'm not an adventurer."
It's fashionable to be called the Spirit Queen or something, but to that extent, Mira makes me humble all the time. Obviously, it's a possible eagle self-production.
"I see... so soon, may I ask what is the secret requirement that Lord Mira has been visiting this branch?
Well, did Klaus notice who Mira was? I can't see the area clearly, but after introducing myself, it seemed like his condition had changed slightly compared to earlier. Somehow, it felt like Klaus' voice contained something like expectations.
But Klaus' expression remains sharp and extremely hard to read.
"Um, it's... in the woods... uh... spirits... no? Not in the woods..."
Either way, it doesn't change what we do here. Mira tried to say the same thing because she would clean up about the requirements. But, first, when I clog the words with what the euphemism was, I say, "Hey, wait," and retrieve the notebook.
"What's wrong with the forest and the spirits?
The word Mira was trying to say. The look on Klaus's face when he heard it only brightens his heart. But Mira, who checks the notebook, just answers, "Uh, just a little bit," and never realizes it.
"In the woods, spirits...... Do you think the spirits who live in the woods have business? Or..."
Somehow, Klaus began to make various predictions. And from that face, expectations finally overflowed.
What he expects from Mira. That was what they wanted to do as the Fifty Bells League.
A little over a decade after coming to this city as the Ratnatraya Branch Manager of the Fifty Bells Federation. Ninth year since opening 'Everforest Garden' as an image reform for reconciliation with residents, intelligence-gathering and the Fifty Bells League.
With the cooperation of the spirits and their knowledge of the forests accumulated in the Fifty Bells League, the shop flourished. The name 'Everforest Garden' was so widespread that nowadays there is no stranger in the eastern district of Ratnatraya.
However, naturally, the store management business becomes busy in proportion to the thriving stores. As a result, Klaus was being chased to work as a manager.
And now, his activities as the Fifty Bells Federation depend on the Deputy Branch Manager, who has come as a helper, putting it together.
Klaus, I've always cared. The manager of the branch of the Fifty Bells Federation is following the board. Think of the forest and the Spirit, and that despite joining the Fifty Bells League, you are not involved in the task.
That's when it came to Mira. Instead of "Everforest Garden," Klaus began to burn his thoughts as branch manager again, which he had long forgotten, when he visited the site as a branch of the Fifty Bells Federation and told Mira that he had a secret story to tell the branch manager.
"You found a protected young spirit-- or a new contaminated area."
What role have you come to seek? Klaus, who had listed that possibility, but whose voice went from right to left. "No, not like that," says Mira, returning it to flush.
But not to mention Klaus exploring the next possibility.
"Oh, there it is, here it is!
At that point, Mira finally found a note of the euphemism she had written before, with a decision face, even as it was difficult, and she mouthed it.
"Light in the woods, rest in the Spirit, bye!
Once, a euphemism taught by Sasori of Hidun. What that means is a request to use a communication device connected to headquarters. Come here. Also, Mira waits to be guided by Klaus, hoping that the euphemism of that time will help.
But somehow Klaus' reaction was completely different.
Work desired as head of the Fifty Bells Federation branch. At last it was Klaus, who began to speak up to that hope, but listened to the words Mira uttered and pushed silently.
"... uh, what does that mean? Is that some kind of cipher or something?
After a while of thought, Klaus replied so. "Light in the woods, peace in the Spirit". I don't even know it's a word.
"No? No, then... light in the woods, peace in the Spirit..."
Was I wrong somewhere? I thought so. I double-checked the note and then again, Mira, I repeated the euphemism. But Klaus's reaction remained the same, and he kept his face still wondering what it was about.
Mira and Klaus neck each other as they stare at each other. If one or the euphemism doesn't make sense, it becomes agitated, and one or the other is confused without knowing what it means.
"See, don't you see!? It's a euphemism, a euphemism! We did get through this in St. Polly!
At last, Mira screamed, looking impatient. Matty, who was St. Polly's branch manager, reacted immediately. I was wondering why he wouldn't understand when it's such a euphemism.
Then...
"Oh, oh! Is that what happened?
Hitting him out of his troubled face and changing, Klaus flipped his expression just saying he had a point.
"Oh, you finally noticed!
Mira was happy to finally get through with that reaction, but the words Klaus went on to say were like relentlessly slashing away such Mira.
"Er... the euphemisms we use vary from region to region. When it comes to St. Polly, the region is completely different. So I'm sorry, what's the euphemism..."
"What... bye..."
Every place, the euphemism used is different. Mira, who now knows the fact, is no longer dismayed that such a decision has been made.
(This... what should I do?!?)
I can't stay in touch with my home base while I come because I know the word confidently.
Despite coming out so cut, errands have not been accomplished. Do we have to rely on the Queen's power of last resort? Having thought about it, Mira rather looks for a way to ask for it and defeat it.
He himself was active in the showdown with Chimera Clozen and is a party with two names: the Spirit Queen and others. It's a way of expecting Klaus' discretion to consider how much.
"By the way, you don't seem to be one of our members, but who did you hear that euphemism from?
Klaus, who was seriously staring at Mira, just thinking about things, said something like that.
Mira was in a hurry. If you are a member of the Fifty Bells Coalition, you cannot know that the euphemism is regional. Then naturally I wonder where you learned that euphemism. At the same time I think I guess that's what I'm guessing and suspecting, I circle my thoughts that this is an opportunity.
"Sasori taught me that now. In the Sasori of Hidun, the elite of the Fifty Bells League. Yeah, we snaked together then!
Hidun. That is the generic name of those who are particularly good among the Fifty Bells League. The Branch Manager class would know about its existence.
Mira was going to reveal herself where that reaction had returned and negotiate, in the name of a razor and snake, that she might somehow be allowed to use a communications device.
However, the calculation will collapse in unexpected ways.
"I see... to Mr. Sasori. Besides, when we're together as far as Mr. Snake, it's before the showdown. At that time, I hear that Mr. Aaron and the other one, that one, were more in action together. I mean, you're still the spiritual queen, Mira?
Final showdown with Chimera Clozen. Detailed information about it seems to be shared between the branch managers. He uttered the name Spirit Queen, not without Mira mentioning it.
"Oh! Well, you're right!
Mira was somewhat surprised to be guessed where she tried to be named, but rather embarks on all this luck. And let him put his Adventurer's ID on the table as if to prove it.
"Did you still? I've had a hunch since I heard your name, but there's no time to confirm it. But it was good. If you know that, it's quick."
The Adventurer's ID confirmed that she was the true Spirit Queen. Klaus, who replied so, goes on to laugh that nothing is wrong with this.
As a matter of fact, I've been instructed by Master Bullseye...
That was about two months ago. Klaus said all branches were sent instructions with quail signatures.
It was written there, he said, 'so that if the Spirit Queen visits the branch, she can fulfill her wishes as best she can'.
"Oh, my God, such..."
The quail thing Kagra supposedly assumed that Mira would seek help in this way. And he kept talking to each branch so that things would go smoothly.
How thoughtful. Thanks to this, I saved myself the trouble of convincing him that Sasori was somehow active at that time.
So happy Mira just told me she wanted to be here.
"So it's quick, can I use a communication device to my home base?!?"
"Absolutely."
Where Mira hoped, Klaus, who answered with a smile, continued to rise, "Well, let me show you."
It should be noted that Klaus' expression seemed a little unfortunate, either because he was expecting a big job as branch manager of the Fifty Bells League.
Although the euphemism ended in underdevelopment, we were able to use communication devices directly from our home base somehow.
Mira leaves the reception room as directed by Klaus and continues down the hallway, through the room to the room and into the back of the branch.
That's how I stepped ahead of the hidden door, and a familiar sight entered my eyes. It's a white room and a black communication device centered on it.
"Now that I'm out in the hallway and working in the office across the street, please let me know if you need anything."
"Um, okay. Guide, thank you."
Mira, thanking Klaus, who was returning to work after a gratuity, stood in front of a communications device and recalled the first time she had used it in St. Polly.
The communication device is similar in shape to a black telephone that was used in the Showa period. Unlike the phone, the specification is to simply take the receiver and connect it to the other side, in this case to the main office.
Mira, who remembered how it worked, grabbed the receiver with the intention that she would no longer fail as she had done the first time.
"Hello, is anybody here? Me, Mira."
If you put your receiver in your ear, call it that right away. Last time I connected directly to Kagra, she should be touring the coffin of the sealed ghost with Angel Tyriel now. If so, who will leave this time?
In this case, was Aliotto still in charge of the brains of the Fifty Bells League? But what I heard a little later from the receiver was a little disturbing.
"No, no, no, no, no, no."
The kind of voice that sounds from a distance belongs to a woman. Just another different voice from Kagra. And that's not all I hear. Even the receiver could see the noisy noise approaching in momentum.
On the other end of the spectrum, what is happening? Besides, he seemed to have fallen on his way, and to the sound of a dotan, he said, 'Ahhh!' I even heard a scream.
But there is no appearance of frustration in the Lord of that voice. Where there were more hasty footsteps, there was finally a response from the other side.
'Phew...... okay. Yes, this is HQ. Affiliation and code name please'
Apparently, this correspondent is quite a dodge. Having guessed it in just a few seconds, Mira replied, worried that she would be able to message Kagra without mistake.
"I'm not Mira. I don't belong. Well, they're often called Spirit Queens these days."
Positively, you're going to confuse them even if you keep telling them, because you're going to be an outsider. With that in mind, Mira shared the name of the Spirit Queen, who was likely to be in contact with the Fifty Bells Federation.
Then. One of those words worked more than I thought.
"Eh...... yes!? Spirit Queen!? Are you Spirit Queen!? Wow! Awesome! It really called!
Until recently, I changed from a voice that I felt compelled to refrain from, so much so that I could still hear it from my receiver. In addition, it seems that not only the branch manager, but also her, have spoken to her a number of times due to the fact that she has spoken.
"I don't know what's going on here, but I'm upset."
When Mira says that, the other person says, 'Ah......!' and silenced. Then after a few seconds of silence, the correspondent said, 'Uh, is it really the Spirit Queen?' And I've checked it once now.
"Um, it's not true. This communication device has been communicated to Lord Branch Manager of Ratnatraya for use."
Mira answered briefly based on the situation. Then once again, a voice of joy echoes from the receiver.
'It's a pleasure to talk to you! ─ ─
Starting with those words was the story of one of the communications officers.
Anything. She says she's a summoner. And that's why I'm excited that I admire it, and I've told her one after another that maybe the Spirit Queen asked me to communicate, so I ran for communications. It should be noted that Aaron told me about Mira's strength.
"Hmm, right! Your Lord is a summoner, too! All right, if there's something you don't know about summoning, don't tell me."
All the summoners were just brothers. Mira said, 'Thank you!' The communications officer who replied, quickly reveals his troubles. And Mira sent her advice personally.
