Cloudless, polished glass windows. A floor that hasn't fallen one dust.
Walk down a well-maintained hallway.
"Uh, heavy, heavy."
On both arms, holding a box with a bunch of paperwork, I accidentally ran that.
"Heavy? Even though you only have that much?
Low voice from right behind. I look back to the Lord of my voice. I looked back...
The person was unable to worship that face because of boxes similar to mine - although there is a difference in stacking boxes.
"Me is a woman, you are a man. Andastan?"
"… it's refreshing to know what you're talking about"
"Well, I mean, it's the difference between men and women. Show me your chivalry, Mr. Watson."
"What do you expect from a former merchant?"
Totally, uh, to put it this way. He's a man with a lot of mouth.
I shook my head.
The location is the center of Reebra, the ruling government of the Medes Border Uncle. The hallway, me and Weiss were walking in luggage.
Speaking of what you're doing, you're moving.
Recent declaration of the decision of His Highness the Conrad. With that, His Highness Konrat moved his residence from the mercenary regiment's garrison to the centre of Leibra.
Most importantly, the treatment of the mercenary regiment itself remains the same, and the garrison is still used as a residence.
It was me and his servant, Weiss, who changed their treatment.
I moved from being a Mercenary Corps Clerk to a less familiar title: the Chairman's Secretary with His Highness the Konrat.
Well, I'm sure it must be the birth. Whatever, my salary went up.
At last, Weiss has become a secretary with his Royal Highness.
The fact of the matter is that my assistant, I don't have one, I use a small room, etc...
"By and large, why are we carrying this? Let the mercenaries carry you."
"Because there are classified documents. You'll be in trouble if they steal it."
For example, reselling from the Else Chamber of Commerce, reselling, reselling….
Yeah, not if they see me, give me that rowdy resale material.
"I don't have that kind of head, with all the lower-end mercenaries."
You're absolutely right. Most of the lower end can't even read the letters satisfactorily.
But just in case.
The buying from the Else Chamber of Commerce made the price a little better, and the members of the general group are grateful for the current situation.
But in fact, if they find out I'm exploiting you like an idiot in resale......
I was just thankful, and the anger when it flipped, I'm sure, shuddered.
Literally, it could be raised to a blood festival.
'Cause even now I...
"... hey, have you seen my daughter's face now?
"Oh. That unique look... a rumored witch"
"Dude, my voice is loud. What if I can hear you?"
No, no, I hear you, brothers.
In the hallway, Officer A, Officer B, looks at my face and talks to me.
Phew, boy.
"Eloim, Essaim. Eloim, Essaim...... no!
From behind, a scream for three without a voice. Come on, Mr. Watson, you too.
And doodles and hard to hear footsteps.
"Didn't they learn not to run down the hallway?
"... what do you think"
... Well, here's the thing.
The great victory of the other day, its incredible effects, seemed to creep through people's admiration.
Besides, that's what I did if I were an inexperienceable little girl like myself.
Well, above the youth, she's a strange looking daughter from their point of view. I can't help it.
The result is an alias for [Faraway Witch].
What a great name. But... not bad. Not so bad.
An army is a man's society. In just a little girl, they could lick you.
If I'm not properly dealt with, I come in the way of my job.
But within witches and fears, at least you don't have to worry about that.
Hehe, let me take advantage of this notoriety at best.
Concluding that way, he hoisted the edge of his mouth.
"Are you mischievous again, Witch Hall?
Wise asks me obnoxiously.
Hmm, I was surprised by the odd noise earlier. Is that payback? That's a narrow heart.
"Well, I'm trying to figure out who to curse to kill next."
With a smile like that, I jokingly return it.
"Cheng Cheng, apparently, as rumored, is a dangerous daughter."
It wasn't Wise who replied to my joke. The voice belongs to a much higher woman.
I turn my gaze to those who speak.
From the bend forward, a girl appeared who seemed to be the Lord of the Voice.
A luxurious dress that can be seen as expensive at a glance. A wealthy woman, whose long hair should also be described as a symbol, has no habit of silver hair. Also, the little face is adorably neat.
Beautiful girl with no complaints. However, it seems a lot stronger......
Is she as old as I am? No, more than that......
Why are you staring at me for the first time? Oh, I don't like it, signs of trouble pump.
"Can I help you, uh... Lady?
To my inquiry, Pickle and Hanging. That thing stepped through the mines?
"No way, you don't know who I am?
Yeah, I don't know who, but what's that?
That's right. If you're responding inside, Weiss comes out the back with a help ship.
"No way, Miss Annelie, anything you don't know about the Medes Frontier House lady is not in this Libra."
I see, the daughter of Uncle Medes Borderline. I see a girl nodding contentedly at Weiss' words.
... Somehow, she seems like a simple daughter. Back to back with that high self-esteem.
If this girl's opponent, how can it be?
"So, Miss Annelie, what can I do for you?
I'll ask you again. Then Annelie stares at this one.
"I thought I'd give you one piece of advice."
"Advice…?
Yeah, you're right.
I say it proudly, Annelie. Okay, what do you want?
"There must not be an ugly man, such as a witch, who serves beside the noble. We should return the favor now."
With advice and all that, the voice is filled with animosity and hatred.
Oh, that's the thing. I mean jealous......? Not at all.
Konrat is the owner of a kidding personality, but he doesn't look bad. On top of that, the fame of being a hero decorated by the borderline uncle.
It is now gaining a lot of popularity from Libra's daughters, who have only seen the upper side.
I guess this simple looking lady didn't leak into an example and fell in love with it.
Oh, I really don't.
"... Lady Annelie, lady's concerns are misplaced"
"What's wrong with you?
He looks annoyed, Annelie inquiring. It's the way I expected it.
Now, let's take the lead by ambush.
"I don't like abdominal arts, so I'll be blunt...... Lady, do you admire His Highness Konrat?
"Become, say what...!
Red cheeks like apples, moisturizing eyes. Yes, yes, cute, cute.
"Did I say something strange?... a brave prince and a good lady. Rather, I thought it was a natural accomplishment. I think it looks great on the big floor."
Pak Pak and Annelie opening and closing her mouth like a goldfish.
Yes, powerlessness complete. I took full ownership of the story.
"Lady, are you worried that there is a woman beside your Highness? Yeah, that would be a natural emotion."
"Yes, no, I..."
I will affirm her true nature, which is hard on the table.
Annelie leaning down with her mouth caged, but being positive about herself wouldn't feel so bad, would it?
"Don't worry. Even if you think about it, look at it. How about a daughter like me, a lowlife, make up with Her Highness? You can't make one mistake."
Annelie lifts her oblivious eyes in an attempt to ascertain the authenticity of my words.
And he's asking terrible questions.
"Isn't that a lie?
"Yeah, by the gods of heaven and earth"
Reply straight, staring back into Annelie's eyes.
Frequent silence. Breaking it, Annelie opened her mouth.
"I withdraw my earlier remarks. I said a lot of rude things. I apologize, er..."
Shizukuishi, ma'am.
"Yes, Sizuk, forgive me."
"Of course, I don't care, Miss Annelie"
All right, mission complete. I avoided buying Uncle Borderline's misfortune.
No... Should we take another step here?
Right, let's do that.
"Ma'am, this is also on the edge of something, and may I offer you one contribution?
"A donation…?
"Yes.... in the words of my hometown, there is something called 'shoot the horse first if you want to shoot the general'"
"Uh, what's that...?
With a strange look, Annelie tilts her little neck.
"It means dropping the perimeter is a shorter path before dropping the goal.... How helpful do you think it would be to your daughter if you took me by your side, your Highness's side?
"Ah!"
Annelie finally realizes what I'm trying to say.
"The words your Highness and Lady said looked good on you are not false. I was hoping I could help you with your daughter's love journey."
"You think you can help me...?
Annelie thinks with her hands on her chin.
What do you need to worry about? There's only one answer, isn't there?
"... at that price, what do you want?
Even when I say simple daughter, she is still noble daughter. Does it bother you there?
"Oh, that's easy. I'm afraid, may I make my wish?
"... say it"
Annelie waits for my words, seeping vigilance into her expression.
"My wish, it..."
"What's that?
"It's about being friends with you. Please, will you be friends with me, Miss Annelie?
"Oh, my friend...?
To an unexpected response, confused Annelie. I overlap words with a smile.
"Yes, definitely to your friend. The army is full of bitter men, so if the poor lady stays by her side, it will be a sober drink."
"... hehe, Cheng Cheng, this is the [distant witch]. That's fine, Sizuk. Let's recognize you as a friend. Call me Annelie after that. No, ma'am."
With a delightful smile, Annelie allows this offer.
"Yeah, nice to meet you, Annelie"
Quickly, with forgiveness called, speak her name.
As I was aiming, I gained friendship with Uncle Borderline's mistress.
