The Branded Female Fencer

Magic Church, Part 18 - Fraud

The reverberation of the election of the chairman and the importance of Yarensen's demonization and death, as well as the agenda at subsequent meetings. Winston, who had accomplished the heaviest responsibility in the past few years, had stirred alcohol in his own room. Winston is not usually the kind of person who drinks. But only at this time after the election, I always decide to drink enough alcohol to take a bath alone.

Definitely not from a sense of liberation. Rather, mental pressure for the next election. From the time Tetrastine became chairman, no, it wasn't exactly more than 40 years since before that. It's so strange that there's no hole in my stomach. At all, Winston stacked his cup again when he resented himself for being born into a sturdy body to the magician's kick.

At that time, there are those who knock on the door of the room. The time is already late at night. Winston was surprised that no one should be awake in the faction anymore. Winston opened the door, weaving a slightly dull white robe that had been unmade on the chair. Seeing who was outside the door, Winston felt his stomach shrink. Now it may have made a hole in my stomach.

"Coming in, Winston"

"... Chairman, how can you be so late at night"

It was Tetrastine and Lissy who stood there. Always these two have amazed themselves, but they were the same tonight. But visiting my room in the middle of the night might be exactly the first time in 40 years.

Tetrastine went in trying to slip into the room before Winston gave her permission, and although Lissie did a favor, she still acted the same way. Winston has already given up, too, but still didn't feel good.

"Looks like you're drinking, Winston"

"... yeah, it's the usual thing. It's like a ritual already."

"The body is not to be broken. I don't want you to fall on me."

Only the shape of Tetrastine was in gentle language, and Winston came to the point. And I said words that I would never normally say.

"... who said you were drinking so much because of? Because you threaten to kill all of my family hostages if you don't cooperate!? Otherwise, I'm not a single drop of alcohol or anything!

My life has been crazy for over 40 years since you moved as far as possible into chairmanship. I would have had nothing else to hope for if I had just done my magic research quietly! Because of you, because of you... "

"But that's not until today either. I'm here today to tell you my spare time."

To Tetrastine's words, Winston continued to be vicious as he exhaled his liquor-smelling breath.

"... what do you know? You are the kind of person who lies flat. How delighted I have been to your doorstep. Now what are you up to?

"I'm not planning anything. At least not about the Magic Church."

But Winston still had his suspicious eyes on Tetrastine. Tetrastine sighed loudly as she shrugged.

"Even though it's my fault, it's something that's become a lot of suspicious character. Don't worry, there's no use for this church anymore. It became clear that what I asked for was not here.

To put it further, I no longer have to threaten you. Speaking of which, is it easy to convey?

"... right, that sticks better. Sadly."

The look on Winston's face is finally just a little soothing. Looks like Tetrastine finally got a little nervous too.

"Damn it, you're stubborner than your surroundings think. I'm sure you're honest."

"The chairman is the same. You can say that you are strangely emotional and difficult to read in order to use hard means. Because of you, your surroundings feared the opposite. I don't know what's offending you.

I'm one of them. When you first appeared before me, I only thought of you as a paranoid boy. But just because you don't like it, you tore the faction's heavy town apart in front of the crowd. I knew you weren't the only one on the tip of my mouth, and I followed you frightened.

Years later, from now on, the harm was nothing to me, my family, my faction. Besides, it is true that since you assumed the chairmanship, there has been less dispute between factions. Everyone hated you anyway. No, I set it up. Different?

"Well, what the hell"

Tetrastine showed off in a blur, but Winston knew it. When this chairman is a star, he must turn his back deliberately.

Winston continues.

"It is true that I have continued to feel pressure on your presence. But I thought you were doing better than that. With nothing but discreet witchcraft, I didn't expect to be so involved in the operation of the Magic Church. Even if the election is crazy."

"It's worse not to notice the squid. Everyone insulted you and thought you couldn't do anything. I guess I'm the only one in the Magic Church who realizes your talent. In a little while, Ingville will notice."

Tetrastine laughed with pleasure as she came along. And Winston and I saw the box on the desk. That was the box used in the election.

Tetrastine speaks for the box.

"Hey. That's enough, Pandora. Just as usual."

"... you know what I usually do, Ome?

Suddenly the box talked and suddenly the hands and feet grew properly from that side. As well as the box, the black hands and feet took the wand and hat out of it when they opened their lids to their tears, and when they wore the hat, they tried to twirl and gracefully rotate the wand. Bring it to the wall and turn in the cigarette where it was removed from. Only his mouth appeared on the side, and he curled the tobacco in a good way.
