The Branded Female Fencer
War and Peace, Part 367 - The Best 16 Tabernacles of the Unified Martial Arts Games, Titania and Alphilis ② -
Unexpected - no, or it was the name of the sword I expected, but Alphilis needed to use all nerves to hide this impact. A little different from concentration, but more nervous than in earlier battles.
But Titania's eyes are nothing to deceive. Titania's expression became more rugged, her killing temper swelled for a moment, and she became quiet again. On the contrary, Titania's expression was even felt more serene than earlier.
Titania shrugged in a small voice.
"Really? - You're involved with Remegate, too?
"... what if?
"I won't do anything. As a sword-serving clan, I am good at collecting weapons. Not only me, but the whole clan was - did you become a clan that gives away weapons because you're good at looking for weapons, or did you become good at looking for weapons because you give away weapons again - and we're very intrigued when it comes to strong weapons. That's why even dairy drinkers went to weapons stores at a glance when they started walking - about it.
With that inquiry of ours, the lemegate was supposedly suspicious as to whether it existed. I also learned of its existence from a moment ago, did I? Is it to you? Which probably means that lemegate is a 'so' sword. "
"That said, what do you mean?
Lisa asked a rough question and Titania answered.
"You were originally good at finding lost things. So you've been through this for about once? Whatever you couldn't find no matter how fine you looked for it, it just goes back to its owner - something that seems too fateful to clean up by chance.
We call that coincidence by various names, but I'm going to call it 'Edge'. "
"Edge"
"I hate the word destiny, but there is certainly a person, a thing, who really should be there for what. People and people gather together to those who have the power to attract destiny more strongly.
Alpha Reese. The best thing you can do is attract that fate. "
"It's not necessarily all good stuff to attract."
Titania had no choice but to laugh bitterly because Alphilis told her like she was frightened.
"If Lemegate is to you - drawn to your edge - then you won't be able to hold Lemegate because I robbed him with strength here. If Lemegate has the will, all the more so.
But be careful. A remegate was that even the keeper of the ruins feared its existence. I don't know what power you have, but it's one mistake to make people fear the keepers of ruins that even demons and ancient dragons can't afford - "
"Titania players, please prepare to enter"
Suddenly, the attendant broke into the conversation. I don't even think it's been that long, but is it time to start the game already?
Titania gave a lightly dissatisfied look and slowly rose.
"... you're thorough. Have you told them the time of your visit early and the time of the game late the other way around? Isn't it a lot earlier than the game time you were instructed to play? You don't seem to want to give me a break at all, no matter what. Arnelia - especially the head of this tournament - has a bad personality."
"- Yeah, I think he's got a good personality. Normally, you're not too clueless at work."
Titania laughed bitterly because Alphilis agreed.
"Excuse me, you were your friend."
"Never mind. Don't you think it would be more comfortable if we just had different positions and different purposes?
"I do enjoy talking to you. And the bishop you call your friend Anolun - was his real name Miranda? also, i'm sure it's really fun to talk to.
But we didn't. I want Levantine, and I'm not willing to lose this tournament. "
"Aside from the results of this tournament, didn't you already know about the black magician? Why don't you join us?
To Alphilis's invitation, Titania shook her head.
"You can't. Sometimes I don't trust Arnelia any more than that. Even if you're not as good as a black magician, you're not as good at giving it to something called a powerful man. Unfortunately, I can't even run to you more than you are in a close relationship with Arnelia.
And more than that, I don't trust myself. The same goes for not knowing when this seal will be broken, but it is also not certain that the spiritual bondage of the Orange Bull is truly broken. I don't even know if it took me some time in the first place, so I can't deny the possibility that I seem to be behaving freely in this way and that the Orangeable order is imprinted on my deep consciousness.
The moment I stand next to you and confront Orangeable, there must be no such thing as stabbing you with my own sword. Because we know that, Arnelia will have no mercy either. "
And Titania also wondered if there was not too much forgiveness, or what she would do if the seal of Perpergis could be lifted here, but there was no reason to know about Arnelia's stomach or anything like that. Miranda hasn't told me the key thing, either.
The attendant hurrying Titania tried to enter the room again, so Titania gently put her hands on Alphilis' shoulder to encourage her to leave the room.
"You should go now. Better not talk long with me, who is the target of Arnelia's murder. Some friends of the Archbishop will not be comfortable."
"But..."
"It was fun talking to you, Alphilis. I want to talk to you again someday, slowly and peacefully."
"When it's peaceful,"
Alphilis dropped off Titania leaving for the venue, but Lisa didn't miss hearing about her bluffing and squeaking then.
"Titania - you won't come to us in time of peace. If you don't think this is a peaceful time, I'm sure you'll never have a peaceful time for the rest of your life.
There was supposed to be a more tranquil moment, but how could... "
Lisa would not answer the squeezing voice of Alphilis, but only slapped him gently on the back.
