The Branded Female Fencer

"Are you ready, gentlemen?"

"Good on the front porch, just get started"

King Swendle even leaked his displeasure at Miranda's liturgical greeting. Miranda couldn't help but react, but she suppressed with reason the anger of wanting to throw the glass in front of her. Alphilis was desperate to laugh because he knew what Miranda was thinking was in his hands. A previous girlfriend would have thrown a liquor bottle with King Swendle's head over it without hesitation. It would not be an international problem if we did that right now.

On the other hand, many missions were just nervous about King Swendle's appearance, waiting for Miranda's next word with a slightly nervous face. Miranda knew that too, so she exhaled once and then squeezed out the next word.

"... Now let's get down to business. Dear Virgin Miriazal of Arnelia invites you to declare the holding of a peace conference. Please wait silently."

When Miranda and the Temple Knights at the security of the room bowed respectfully, the door behind the conference hall opened, and when the curtain opened, Miriazal appeared from there, but Alphilis was suspicious of my eyes by accident.

It wasn't the tired, stuffed face you'd see in your usual office, but there was certainly a Virgin there. I remember the first time I saw Miriazal. At that time I was still calling myself Millie and conceited the girl, but it was definitely elegant and something I remembered an intelligent impression that didn't suit the year.

But now Miriazal was not comparable to that time. Not only did Miriazal say he dressed in a dress with Tiara, but his shining elegance convinced the people on the spot as the Virgin without a clutter. Does this mean words are unnecessary?

Miriazal slowly sat in the chair lowered by Miranda and looked over at the faces of the queens with a relaxed and gentle look.

"I'm in a good mood for all of you. Whether you've met me on my patrol or for the first time. First of all, thank you for your patrol."

"No need for extra greetings, just get started. I think you know that our country is in dire need."

Just as many envoys turned to the words of King Swendle, Miranda also tried to say something with a slight face up again, but Miriazar raised one hand to control it. Miriazal does not show any upset behavior that could be taken as provocation.

"The king is in a hurry. But I, too, am not going to prolong the story into mischief, so let me just make a declaration. I hereby declare the holding of the 68th Continental Peace Conference. Hope for lasting peace and development on this continent. At the same time, even after 400 years since its inception, Arnelia is still grateful for its good fortune in contributing to peace on this continent. For a long time, we ask you to pray for peace in your own way."

Saying so, Miriazar knelt down and prayed. Miranda followed it again, and the appearance of two devout prayers even silenced King Swendle's mouth. Everyone prays silently in their own way for a while, and silence comes to the conference hall.

Alphilis did not perform a silent prayer in the meantime, crushing to see how the gods were doing. Swendle remained stood up and flashed, presumably praying for nothing as much as he did. Also Dryan, Diore offered a silent prayer, and Muse and Ray fans were hand in hand to pray. And the watching Shane Sereno kept his eyes open and looked around at the crowd just like Alphilis did.

The Shane Sereno and Alphilis were eye-catching. Alphilis met with a little surprise and no disrespect, but he couldn't read any emotions from Shane Sereno's inorganic eyes.

"(That's the rumored woman politician... I see, you do have to be careful)"

Alphilis believes that the appearance of prayer is the manifestation of confidence in self and life. If you want to do something about an object beyond your power, it will be a devout gesture of prayer, like Miranda. At least if you're a person who's ever spoken to someone in search of salvation, you should be like a Ray fan or a muse. Resolve on your own, but do not put the power of others on you, and those who have faith look like Dryan or Diore. And I guess those who expect nothing from others will be like Swendle.

But Shane, how about Sereno? I had the same impression of a woman as Muse and Ray fans to ask about her background, but isn't this obviously an attitude worse than Swendle's? I don't know if I'm arrogant, but I observe and ordain others with eyes that are difficult to describe. Alphilis was aware that he was a dangerous opponent.

"(Ray Fan's Obstacle - No, it could be her if it were to be a conference obstacle. Let Renatica look for people and trends)"

When Alphilis thinks so, it seems that each prayer is over. Miriazal slowly opened his mouth as he looked around the faces of the queens.

"Okay, gentlemen, take your seats."

"Would one thing be good before that, O Virgin of Arnelia? The Virgin was a symbol of Arnelia, who did rituals and the like, but recognized that it was irrelevant on the political side. But then again, the declaration of the meeting means that the substantial Arnelian operation is not a collegial system, including the Archbishop, but rather reigns as a leader? Then the story is different. Does that mean we were being deceived by Arnelia?

Tension runs on the field. It was King Swendle who took the lead at the same time as the declaration of the meeting. Which mouth speaks in such a way as to represent everyone, in a position to urge the Virgin Miriazal to start the meeting with unsatisfactory words and to reject Arnelia's assistance and insist strongly on independence? Miranda is not the only one who thought he could overlook a statement that could break the conference itself.

But he again controlled Miranda, who tried to eat and hang him, and Miriazar calmly disputed.
