The Branded Female Fencer

"... you're a pandora. I heard you were traveling with Tetrastine."

"Oops, I sure did. Tetrastine's bastard, the black magician, took his side. I was wondering what I would do if I were to be used like this, but the Tetrastine bastard put a demon on me and sent me back here. I still don't know what you're thinking, you bastard.

But as far as I'm concerned, I really care more about Levantine than he does. I was wondering what I was going to do, but I thought I showed up right in front of you. "

"Wasn't Mr. Hoomilne, chairman, better than me?

Ingville asked a mean question, but Pandora waved and denied it.

"I thought about that, too. Hoomilne is desperate to put together a magic church right now, and everything else is out of her mind. That's what I need to do, but you'll get your head around it until I make the most of it. In that regard, you're going to do me a better favor. Besides, I think we can make a deal."

"I don't like it, I didn't expect to see people in the box."

Ingville leaked his honest thoughts, but Pandora nudged the edge of her mouth floating on the side of the box.

"The box also looks at people. If you think being used is just a tool, it's a big mistake."

"I see. So, you're gonna make a deal with me"

"Exactly. Can I have a drink before then?

As Pandora took the cigarette out of the box and tried to set it on fire, Ingville took it up and gripped it.

"Oh, what the fuck! That was 200 years ago!?

"No smoking here. Don't leave anything to smell, it'll prove that Xama was there."

"Shit, he's a tough guy. Then I'll just tell him what to do. Bring me to the city hosting the Unified Martial Arts Games, where Levantine is coming. Instead, I'll give you information about the black magicians. So what do you say?"

"Ho."

Ingville stepped out a little intrigued.

"How can I know?

"I'll call Tetrastine. I still have the means."

"How?

"That's a secret. If I taught you how to do it, you'd have to take that away from me."

Pandora's only been alive a long time, too, and she's just not the kind of person you can fool. Ingville decided to stop wasting his time and honestly respond to the deal.

"Fine, let's deal with that deal. But the first deal is only when you get useful information."

"What is the definition of useful information?

"It's their own personality and purpose. They almost all seem to be manipulated, but each should have just the existential significance of pulling them in as black magic. I want you to explore that."

"I see, that would be good. But I'd like some information here, too. It's not like you really keep your word."

Pandora is also suspicious. Ingville inevitably decided to share the information.

"There is no doubt that Levantine is the prize of the earlier Unified Martial Arts Games. However, we do not yet have any information on the location of the event. Although the event has been prolonged due to unexpected recurring events, there was a notification that it would take place in some season when the next spring arrived."

"What, that's a lot of vague information?

"I don't have a choice. Probably Levantine is bait. To attract a black magician for sure. Until then, I guess the Arnelian Church is going to make some preparations. The venue has not yet been revealed either. We were supposed to do it in Arnelia at first, but we can't bring in a black magician. Perhaps it will be held using a different city"

"Hmm, well, is the muscle through? Let's just say I believe you."

Pandora jumps straight off the desk and tries to walk out of the room. Ingville stopped looking like that.

"Where are you going?

"Wherever I go, I'm on my own. Well, don't worry, I'm not leaving the Magic Church. I'll show up before you on a regular basis, so I bought new information each time. Bye."

That said, Pandora's figure disappeared all the time. Apparently, he used the magic of blocking the signs. Aeluare will round his eyes again this time.

"Holy shit! What tools talk about and yet use witchcraft?

"... so that no one in the Church knows its existence by reason. I can't find that one. Too often, Tetrastine noticed that presence."

Ingville enjoyed a strange encounter while at the same time delighted that Pandora would not be insulted. After this, Ingville will find out some time later. He says he wants a reciprocal speaker.
