The Branded Female Fencer

War and Peace, Part 22 - The Woman Brave's Agony ⑤

"So, you shouldn't ask me where you've been, should you?

"Well, I promise."

When Alphilis returned to the inn, Rhine asked the question, but Alphilis had to answer without hesitation. We can't even tell them who Luvere is yet. Maybe I'll have to talk to you tomorrow. Perhaps Levere will be thinking about it, but you mean he's giving Alphilis and the others priority over that? As much as I appreciate it.

I didn't ask you any more if Rhine was guessing the circumstances, either.

"So, what did you do?

"I'll pick you up tomorrow. So I get in with my mentor."

"Uh, what's your name..."

"They say you shouldn't talk about it. I don't know where you're asking."

"No way. You think I have ears and eyes all over the tarram?

"No, no, it's not that thorough. Reacting to the name Earthgal, the far-sighted sorcery and eavesdropping sorcery stretched all over town will only work."

Words that suddenly broke into the conversation between the Alphilis and the others. They were all sitting up and flying, but there was a man sitting in his chair, seated deep and relaxed. No, there shouldn't have even been a chair on the spot. This would mean that it appeared without sound or signs with the chair.

There was an unpleasant sweat on everyone's back. Alphilis finally asks the question.

"The mentor Earthgal, right?

"I don't know. Let's apologize for the disrespect that suddenly appeared in the night without a greeting. But tomorrow, a strange apprentice might get in the way. I thought I needed to see you today."

Instructor Earthgal looked much younger than Alphilis thought. Around 30 years old? Of course he won't be his age as it seems, but he won't even think he's a mentor just from the outside. Noticeable nose with no appearance or slightly plain appearance, slightly longer brown hair, brown eyes. All I could see was a young man without the full magic all around me and even the splendid wand in my hand.

Alphilis inquired ready.

"So? What do you need?

"What, I already know your requirements. That's why he left me to save time. The principle of things is balance. Humans get desperate to make the scales tilt either way, but I prefer that the scales are catching up with each other. Do you understand?

"If you want what you want, you want me to give you something?

"It's quick to understand and helpful. But it's what you guys have, and there's nothing I want. Then I hope you won't enjoy me."

"Hmm, you want me to let these guys even bare dance?

The line slammed lightly, but Groundgal laughed all the time as the women got angry.

"Line! Don't joke!

"No, it's surprisingly big serious. It would be cheap if Fostina could be naked."

"Hmm, I don't mind?

"Aerie, that's exactly what it is"

"Interesting suggestion, but I've already decided to try. And it's starting."

"It's a trial?

Alphilis reacted to the word trials. But it was Maia who made the most rugged face.

"My mentor Earthgal. You're not going to put me, the true dragon, to the test, are you?

"No, Lord Sky Dragon Maia. I am equal to humans and beyond. Just because you are a true dragon, there is no reason for forgiveness anywhere.

No, rather, you are the one who should reflect, not in a position to say such great things. If you True Dragons had managed the continent more closely, you would have prevented the runoff of the Orange Bull. Even though Orangeable's conduct was unavoidable, it could have taken a different form. I've even seen that, and who's to blame for inviting this to happen? I'm not gonna make you say you don't know. "

"You're the one who decided to look aside, aren't you? And you blame only True Dragon?

Earthgal laughed bitterly at Alphilis' allegations.

"No, you're right. But True Dragon had a bigger responsibility than I did. That's your responsibility for winning the war against the Demons. You may not remember so much of the time because you're young, but you didn't know it."

"... maybe that's right"

"Sort of. In that I didn't do anything either, as Alphilis pointed out there. It's not like I don't think I should take responsibility anywhere either. But this is it now."

When Earthgal slammed the ground with a cane, suddenly the chain jumped out of the wall and tangled Maia's body. And he was slammed against the wall, and Maia sank straight into the wall and disappeared without having time to raise her voice.

The Alphilis and the others are flabbergasted by what happened in no time.
