The Branded Female Fencer

"I can't believe we're having a secret meeting in such a grand place."

"But surely, on the contrary, it may not be unnatural. Because if you're even somewhat solid about being human, you won't know at first glance if you're a stray child. Besides, it wouldn't be the kind of place where people would go out of their way to see who was in every house next door."

Lisa was right, it was no longer like she cared who the next person was in this place or anything else. Feast of Decadence. While civilians lack daily meals in Castle Town, nobles and knights are having a full night's sleep. Mountains and leftover dishes are discarded one after the other, and new dishes are constantly arranged. Cuisine that hits people and is scattered all over the ground. How many of them will starve, even if it be a plate thereof?

Men and women who embrace each other's shoulders without any eyes. The familiarity at the end of the day, like a man and a whore, was far from the noble dating to which the aristocracy presumed to be. At the same time that this country grew destitute, everyone fled the fact but all the way down to ethics. Even shortly after the banquet begins, how messy will this place be after this?

Alphilis and the others are attending a banquet inviting ambassadors at the Bünsnell hotel. This feast, which takes place in the form of a standing meal, liberated only the first floor of the reception hotel as a venue, and the rest was free to move around. Moderate knobs and liquor are also available on the balcony, terrace and garden, and you can enjoy liquor and food almost everywhere you are on the property of the hotel. The second to third floors are guest accommodation, meeting rooms, and multi-purpose rooms, but the lights were dark. When the new American security guard at this reception hotel asked his superior why, he told him that if the feast was missed, he would know why. And in the right place, the job will be cut, and we will be at the feast. To the new America with its neck hanging, the superior said reason was useless just to keep.

Why, by the way, could the Alphilis have infiltrated this place, which is Lisa's usual procedure?

"It's wild just to ask how."

And since it's usual for Lisa to say, don't you dare listen to Alphilis. Aerial went on a faraway ride "to get some clean air," such as the method used by Lisa when solving a rub that had previously occurred in the mercenary regiment, and the upset Ekla continued to write the paperwork without even realizing that she had broken the pen, and Emerald cried woefully. Once again, Alphilis realized that it was Buddha who didn't ask about all the backwork Lisa was doing.

Another feast at heart, but Alphilis and Lisa are too prominent in their hair color. So after the infiltration, he leaned in and said Lisa was currently under detection. Eliza and Elsa participate in the feast head-on, as official invitees of Arnelia. They want to hear from their ambassadors.

And Renatica was infiltrating in another way. This is a reception hotel, with multiple soundproofing and witchcraft of perception inhibition. For this reason, Renatica is more likely to be useful in many ways than Lisa. So Renatica is to act differently, and its liaison role is to be played by Uti.

But the feast of satiety in front of Alphilis, who thought of Slasmund as a country that would rise to poverty, was shocking.

"How can you leave someone starving alone and have that luxury?

"If you say nobility is such a thing, it's quick to talk, but they may not even know the people are starving. The only place in their world is this social place between nobles. How many of you will be in direct contact with the people?"

But the downstairs are in the mansion.

"You'll be there, but there will be a lot of other things with conversations. I've also heard of a working man who spoke to an upset aristocrat before, being disrespected on the spot."

"... I don't understand."

Lisa softly adds those hands to her back because Alphilis looked sad.

"Alfi, not all events are understandable. But you should be able to make an effort to point each thing in the right direction. We just have to start with something familiar."

"Really?

"I can't even wipe my own ass. There's so much more to wipe someone else's ass."

Lisa thumbed up a lot, so Alphilis giggles.

"Thank you, Lisa. I'm feeling a little better."

"It's that intention. Let's start with the case in front of us."

"So, where's the excitement?

Uty talks from behind the two of us. While Uty is also stunned by the situation in front of him, his mouth is seen after a firm pinch. I admire Alphilis in a way for being a graceful fairy, but Uty seemed to take her seriously.

"Message from Renatica. It appears that a secret meeting will take place in the third room to the left from the third floor back staircase. He said he'd be here any minute."

"You're just working fast, Luna. Shall we go, Alfie?"

"Yeah, you deserved to be turned into a servant."

Alphilis appears in plain brown clothes, twirling around in a white apron. Apparently it's been a long time since she's worn a skirt and she enjoys the disguise somewhat. Around here is the usual free alphilis.

And to show Lisa and Uty a little, you want to hear what they think, you're making them blink.

"What do you think?

"Costumes for horses too"

"Pearls on pigs"

"Me, how low are you?

Lisa and Uti responded naturally, but Alphilis was disappointed with regret. And with the nagging Alphilis, the three head to the location designated by Renatica. It was only thanks, for one thing, to Lisa's sensing abilities that she was able to arrive with almost no one to see along the way.

Coming near the intended room, naturally, but people stood in front of the door. I guess it's an escort, but obviously they're killer, and it's obvious to whoever sees something important going on in the room. Seeing as that happens, Lisa ears softly at Alphilis.

"Alfi, please stand by in the room facing you. There are no people there, and the keys have been opened by Renatica in advance. I'll call you when something happens. Lisa's with Luna, and we're going closer now."

"Yeah, please."

Leaving that to say, Lisa snuck Alphilis across from the room of interest and walked herself out toward the balcony. Because there were several escort-like people holding off on both sides of the room for the purpose, as Lisa expected, and the room was unlikely to be usable.

So Renatica set up the whole hotel room in advance. A part of the room is shrugged with an elongated blade so that the sound inside leaks. A drawback when enchanting a junctional system, such as soundproofing or perception inhibition, is that when enchanting a fixed space like a room, the enchantment is performed along a wall. Not all of them are, but Eighty-Nine in the Ten is more stable and powerful in sorcery. In other words, if part of the wall falls out after the magic has been practiced, the sound will leak from it. This was what Renatica, who undertakes covert and assassination, knows empirically as one means of breaking magic.

When Lisa got to the balcony, there were a couple of drunks there, or someone who spoke of love, but there were men around the corner with booze. That is where it leads to the window of the room where it is intended, and the men never see themselves drinking. They fell silent in an instant, worried that Lisa might be the guardian. And when you draw the men into the shadows, a Renatika-like shadow makes the call. Lisa senses her surroundings to make sure no one is looking at her, and rushes to Renatica early enough.

"You're bold, Luna"

"It's a waste of time. I want to move forward as soon as possible."

"I agree with that. But are you okay leaving these people here?

"This is such a banquet anyway. It would only seem to me to the extent that the drunk is falling. Just roll the bottle around and you'll be fine."

Renatica rolled the empty bottle aside by the men as she appropriately sprinkled the contents of the liquor bottle into the hedgehog flowers. The two then approach the window of the desired room early enough to open a dull hole in the wall. Fortunately, the place gets just shady with railings, etc, and the buildings around it are far away. Even if we could see the two of us from afar, we wouldn't even know what we were doing. Most importantly, there's no way these two wouldn't notice if someone was watching them.

Lisa hits her ear perfectly when Lunatica gently pulls out a blade that has been purposefully painted to make it less noticeable. Only then will Lisa hear everyone's conversation. Lisa sets her finger toward Lunatica when she makes sure she can hear enough of the voice inside. It was a signal that it was enough.

Prepare the paper and pen that Lisa just left dull to listen to the conversation inside.
