The Branded Female Fencer

"... what?

Elsa asks Miriazal back with a face like she doesn't know what she was told.

"Dear Miriazal, what now?

"Archbishop Minar is dead. Your successor, Elsa. The official inauguration will be announced sooner rather than later in the year. Get ready by then..."

"Stop joking, please!

Elsa suddenly speaks out loud to block Miriazal's words. Elsa did not hide the expression of perplexity, and Miriazal became a more rugged face.

"Master Minar, isn't he? I don't change one expression no matter how important it is, I always work pale. I've never seen that guy screw up. Even this time..."

"Hmm, still this?

Miriazal releases a single letter and comes by. Elsa took it and opened it and read it. It's short there,

"I left the rest to you. Destroy all the workshops."

It was just written in blood letters. Looking at the letter, Elsa was shaking her hand as if it were a mess.

"Sure he's a tough guy, but does that look like an act?

"Bye... bye"

"The enemy was up there. That's all."

Miriazar sat on her chair more and more, wilfully and indiscriminately. And I say it out cold.

"You too are one who takes up the dark side of Arnelia. Tomorrow is our day, keep it in mind. And your cauldron hasn't grown yet. Understand the importance of your life. If you die, there will be people who get lost in the streets and unwanted victims. You may step back once you understand. I'll tell you what happens next."

Elsa fluttered at the words but went outside. After Elsa left, Miriazal said something.

"Hmm, he said to make me wash up this role. You really are a tough guy, you minar guy."

Miriazal also lay down on his desk again, his forehead upon his hands, and he was biting his lips with regret.

Elsa, who had left Miriazal's office, stood there stunned for a while. Miranda walks in looking for Elsa there.

"Oh, I was there. I need to talk to Elsa."

"Dear Miranda..."

And I perceive Miranda to be naughty to Elsa, who waved with vain eyes.

"Elsa, what's wrong!?

To Miranda's words, Elsa silently offered a letter that she held in her hand.

"This..."

"Show me!

Miranda also saw the letter so that it would snap, but she seemed to have guessed the situation in terms of how Elsa was doing and its contents.

"Right, Minar's dead, isn't he?

"Stop... stop!

Then Elsa suddenly started making loud noises.

"Do you even make jokes like that to Master Miranda!? It's not like that guy's gonna die! 'Cause that guy was strong enough to treat me like a child, and so I could work, and I couldn't believe it, and I couldn't be more alert, and I turned my head... then look at me. It's no big deal."

"Wait, there's a lot of people here. Come here!

Miranda took Elsa's hand and led her to an unpopular room. So he grips Elsa's shoulder hard and forces his face towards him.

"It would be nice here. I'll make sure. Minar's dead, isn't he?

"No... no, I don't know. I've never heard from you like this before."

"I'll change my mind. Is he the kind of person who pushes his work to others?

"No, it can't be. That guy cleans up his own business exactly, so... Ah."

Did Elsa find out for herself by saying so much? I began to weep with a bump. Miranda forgives her gently.

"Elsa. You liked Minar?

"I don't know... I don't know. You're old enough, and you've never invited me like that before. That man passed away before he could confirm my heart. Trying to have tea with me when I get home... it's weird. That guy always said the tea I put in first. Oh, you only praised me once. 'Not good, but you're better than before'. As unfathomable as ever. But I'm a little happy about that, and I..."

"That's enough. I don't have to say anything anymore..."

Miranda said that far, hugging Elsa. Elsa had been trembling in Miranda's chest for a while, but eventually Miranda's power to hold hands gradually grew stronger.

"... not"

"What?"

"I won't forgive them, those guys"

The force caged in Elsa's hands was becoming stronger and stronger, and blood was beginning to flow from Miranda's skin, which her nails devoured. Miranda did nothing to blame Elsa or push her away, even though she looked at her face. In it, Elsa starts spewing cursely words in a low voice.

"I won't forgive them, those guys. Killed Master Minar. I will wipe you out of the world without leaving any dust. Everybody... I'll kill them all."

"Right. But Elsa..."

"Miranda would think so too!?

Elsa sees Miranda slightly. Its eyes were running bloody and it didn't look like a person who was going to be able to make a very normal decision. to Elsa, the madman's expression, but Miranda was not frightened,

"Yeah, I think so, too."

"Right? Then I can't stay like this. We need to start getting ready to kill those guys as soon as possible. I shall now begin to prepare for the inauguration of the Archbishop. Now excuse me!

That's all I have to say, Elsa ran and left the room. And in the room where no one was, Miranda stood looking up to heaven.

Eliza, are you there?

"Yes."

I have a response from outside the room to Miranda's inquiry.

"You heard what happened, didn't you?

"Earlier from Master Miriazar"

"Fine then. You stay with Elsa. If you want to go too rampant, beat it up but stop that behavior."

"Are you sure, leave Master Elsa alone like this?

"Right..."

Miranda mumbles a little. Miranda was also remembering her past again. I had the same period as her. I couldn't stop Elsa. Even if the consequences are just tragic.

"Do I look like the kind of person Elsa would cry to live and get back on her feet for giving her a vacation?

"No, I didn't think so."

"I agree. Sometimes anger and hatred are the driving forces of life. Just past. Anger and hatred destroy themselves. If that's not all wrong, she'll be fine. Her stopper..."

"You mean me. Honestly, I'm not sure."

Eliza made a rare weak noise. Miranda looks worried outside the room, looking in the direction where Eliza would be.

Eliza continued.

"I don't have the experience to understand Master Elsa's anger, and I'm the one fighting with anger myself again. I thought you'd be pulled by that guy's anger..."

"Don't be sweet. You will soon be a temple knight with an archbishop. Its shoulders carry an unparalleled burden. With such weakness, she can't even help herself. Come not only with the enemy standing before her, but with the intention of slashing down to anger and grief."

"... okay. I said nothing."

"Encourage. More than ever."

"Excuse me."

That's how the signs of Eliza left. And Miranda talks as she is.

"I put my thing up on the shelf, and I knew I didn't like being a cop. Maple, are you there?

"Yes, here"

There is a maple voice coming from the ceiling of the room. Miranda is in the same position as she is,

"Keep a close eye on Elsa and the others. That's fine with me. Maybe they have a zip on them, but I'd like you to focus a little. At least a few months after she became archbishop."

"Got it. How's Miranda doing better than that?

"What are you worried about, the immortal seal? Just go."

"If it's an order. But Miranda loves herself."

And the signs of maple disappeared, too. But Miranda laughs bitterly at the words.

"If she did, you'd be saying a lot. I wonder who it looks like. Do you think you'll be as loud as Kiko in the future?

Miranda also leaves the room again and heads to her own office. Miranda is not worried about people again. There's so much to do. And her top priority was to help Alphilis. Yes, we have to have enough power in just a few moments to retreat from the Orange or even the Lifeless if necessary.

Miranda also confirmed her resolve and headed back to the office.
