The Branded Female Fencer

War and Peace, Part 678 - Night of the Twelfth Day of the Continental Peace Conference -

"As a lady, you were educated by Aldous as a princess.Of course, it should have included instruction on magic.Magic can range from handy magic that lights fire, creates ice, and helps with everyday life, to those that drive hostiles away. Many of them are thought to be unable to use it without special training, but it is actually different.

Women wear makeup or clothes, while men train and attract the attention of the opposite sex.They are also limited, but close to magic.It is the same in the store. What sells or doesn't sell changes just by changing the order of the products.In other words, they are the initial stage of magical practice, and sometimes they possess the nature of magic if pushed as a ritual.You, who lacked magic, were taught such magic.And use it to master people's minds. "

"That's enough."

Muse took a breath.And he tried to shy away and interrupted Alfiliath's conversation.

"You're right.I was told it would help me as a politician, and I was instructed to do so by Aldous.It seems to be a technique that is no longer seen as well by the Sorcerer's Association, but witches are an old magic that is still used everyday.At best, I'm a charming witch apprentice.

So, what are you here to say?You didn't come here to argue with me in the middle of the night, did you?You've been teaching Aldrius longer.My magic would not work if the story broke, and I could have taken more forceful measures a while ago, but you became a little too famous for this Unified Martial Arts tournament.There's nothing I can do about you anymore.After all, when I first visited Hausen, I was forced to do some magic. "

"After all, were you working on something at that time?"

"I tried to tie you up with the stuff I put in the room, the smell, the sight, the spell.When I took the initials of my words, I designed the spell to be completed.But I couldn't. Aldous told me that I have no talent as a magician.But that's why I was told it was worth it.Daughter of the King, ordinary and slightly good-looking.I was told I wanted to see how wonderful it was going to grow up. "

"I heard you used to be a big stepmother."

"Before the social debut.My skill is to climb trees, my hobby is to break branches and flowers in the garden and make the gardener cry. "

According to Muse, Alphilis burst out.Because I felt familiar when I first saw an undecorated muse.But Muse was staring at Alfilius with his harsh eyes.

"Honestly, I don't like you.It's not just a dislike, you can say you hate it. "

"... because you had Aldrius all to yourself?"

As Alphiris pointed out, Muse became angry.

"Yes, that's right! I always thought he'd get engaged to me.I suddenly let go of my hand without any premonition, while making my life gloriously dramatic!How miserable and lonely I spent my life after losing someone to shine light on!Many came to the flowers of the blooming Great Wheel, and were not allowed to wither.Exactly what turned into a wall flower, I had to look like I was still blooming after that.No matter where the roots are! "

"... I can't tell you what I'm feeling.I don't know how you feel. "

"Yes, of course! Is it something you can understand and accumulate!"

"But I know something you don't know.For one thing, our mentor, Aldous, thought he was scum.Selfish, selfish snobs - I've never heard anything about you, but I've ever murmured like a solo.

The flowers flowered too brilliantly to be next door.He said he didn't deserve it and that being beside him would corrupt him and his opponent.I didn't know what it was or who it was, but I'm sure it was you. "

"Because..."

Muse was still angry, but his cheerful expression was subsiding.Alphilis tried to remain calm.

"He was a lonely man.I still wanted to interact with people, knowing that my sensitivities and talents were never compatible with them.I'm sorry if I don't get what I want - normally I can't do that, but he's done it.It's not only personal status, but also the love of a beautiful woman who is envious of others, the talent of martial arts and magic.None of them may have been the best, but you can see the landscape from the top.That's why I wandered in search of something I would never get.I'm desperately frustrated that you'll get it again. "

"... you'll want to spit when others hear it."

"Yes, I do some small things, but not as much as Aldous.From what he heard, he didn't even get tired of whispering about the cologne, and perhaps it was a hassle to hinder the Orangeable plan. I'm a nuisance. "

After what Gwendorf and Nautis had told him, Alphilis learned a new side of the story about a man named Aldrus.How much is involved in the history of this continent?I don't care how much more a human being can do, so I imagine that there was no connection to resting permanently.He may have been relatively young, had incurable illness, and in a sense was happy to die.If Aldrus had lived long enough, it might have been just that despair had prolonged.Or he might have lost his spiritual antagonism and transformed into a bad person.

Muse stared at Alphilis with a gloomy expression, saying that he was a nuisance.Alphilis coughed a little and ate the tea prepared by Muse.

"Ah, that's..."

"I know, it contains fragrances and ingredients that make you more prone to delusion, right?Aldrus taught me that too.I have never used it and have not been interested in it until recently.I became interested because I became the leader of the mercenary regiment and began to meet people who were not very favourable to me.If the other person is in favor of me, the conversation will proceed quickly and the trouble will be reduced.I have not used it yet, but I am prepared to use it and not quit if necessary.Instead, I use a fragrance that restores fatigue.

And the handiwork of the lady was completely invalid to me.Because Aldrus was so amazing, it was full of transfer mothers.A few times as much as you did, Aldoux taught you some form, and threw a key.I wonder if the woman who climbed on the head of the real dragon and pulled the scale wasn't even disciplined by Aldrus. "

Muse turned away and laughed at the words.I was desperate, but since I was holding my stomach a lot, it was possible that if I pushed another one, Muse would turn around and laugh, but I wondered if I could push Muse to that point. Alphilis, who imagined that Aldrus would rush to stop him, laughed and left it there.

"Fufufu - It's still interesting, you. I told you I hate you, but it's me as a woman, and I'm sure you'd want to be a good friend if it wasn't for Aldoux.And now I find this very interesting, both as a human being and as a counterparty. "

"Thank you for that - so let's get down to business.Can you tell me how to contact Whisper because I also want to do business with Almas?And I'd like to ask you to cut off your ties with Armus and follow me. "

Alphilis smiled, but his gaze remained sharp, so Muse unexpectedly trembled to the point where he was about to take off the cup in his hand.
