The Magician Wants Normality
Thoughts under the mask
- In a room (Elshon perspective)
"I apologize for taking the time to step in"
That's how I turn my gaze to the people on the same table.
"No, it will be necessary. This is the kidnapped maid. We have to thank her for her safe rescue."
It is the Chancellor of Carlossa who smiles calmly. I guess sending him to Irfena still feels that he needs future measures as Carlosa as well.
"Exactly. Some parts of me think I'm lucky this time."
The man who snorts as well is Lord Glenn of Alberda. He is also in the position of the belly of King Alberda, whose talent is as specialized in brainwork as Mizki.
Above all... he is authentic, Mizuki and his hometown.
I assumed Mizuki was involved in this resolution, and I guess the person most used to her was chosen.
- And.
"I didn't expect you to be here any time soon."
"Well, that's about as good as it gets to show good faith."
Somewhere invincibly a person with a scratch on his face laughing - King Kivera that person.
While the country is still unstable and this time every country is chosen to rank next to the king... he was the only one who had come to Ilfena himself.
I am the only one who invites you this time. Until now, it has been unthinkable for the kings of the great powers to ride on their own invitations to be downgraded - and rightly so, both in their identity and in their country's position.
"Sincerely, what?
"There would have been something about Princess Wang, wouldn't there? If the country is going to change, isn't this the right place to prove it?
If asked to explore sincerity, he was returned that way with an interesting look.
Sure, secretly convinced. It is true that the King himself going on these occasions is an excellent opportunity to show that 'it is not like before' and would be a good proof.
Instead of calling, the king himself goes. It is a serious figure in the king of the great kingdom, but I could not feel the fright of the late defeat there by the Magic Master.
No, Kivera is still a 'big country'.
Because that's not the only thing that made Kivera feel threatened.
Whether agricultural land is shredded or not, its existence is not something that can be ignored.
Above all, Mizuki did nothing but weaken it.
However, it is also true that not all those who understand it. Some suspect that Kivela was fatally damaged, keeping the assumption that he was' defeated by a demon mentor '.
"I see. Proof that Kivela doesn't have the arrogance she once had, an appeal to her own country that she sees this kidnapping as heavy enough to move herself. And… to tell us that there is no problem even if the king temporarily leaves the country"
King Kivela laughed satisfactorily when he told him of the possible possibility. Sounds right.
Exhale an inner sigh into the figure of King Kivela like that. Painfully, he is still a great king.
If we were to remain on this scene with the defeat of the other day and the arrogance of the past… it is doubtful that we would have accepted Quivera as the same victim.
There would have been a possibility that I would not take this invitation too seriously because I value pride.
But King Kivera was still the man who deserved to rule the great power.
Because I chose to be ahead of the country over remorse, and let myself prove it by taking a step back.
When we get this far, we have to admit that Kivera is in the same position. If you return it in good faith, it will be a disgrace to the country and an appreciation.
I lay down my eyes for the first time and then aligned my gaze with King Kivela. To the suddenly unusual air, the other two tighten their expressions as well.
"If that's what you think. There was another purpose to this gathering… I would like you to enter into an inviolable treaty with my country. Of course, other countries are welcome to participate."
"Hmm?"
"To be honest, Kivera's standing is now obscure. With that, the surrounding countries don't know how to handle it either. Previously, Kivera had an overwhelming advantage… because it changed once and for all"
"What does that have to do with the kidnapping?
"Eliminating the possibility of our self-destruction, is it? I don't know what to say, but this time the mastermind seems to turn my head a little bit."
To my suggestion abruptly, everyone who opened their eyes lightly… changed their expression to bitter in the words that followed.
"To be honest, they have chosen to respond too accurately. From what I've heard about the kidnappers, it seems a dead man was giving advice. And he said it felt like the man was under someone's direction, too."
"Oh... you seem to have plagued Irfena for a long time. Well, she was the one who did it unexpectedly."
Kuku, and King Kivera laughed delightfully. He is very quick to understand as he can be said to have been defeated by Mizki's first ton of demos.
That seems to be the same for the Chancellors of Carlossa and Glenn, who laughed bitterly as if they were frightened.
"It was only because Mizuki got in early as a pimp that I learned that there was a mastermind behind the man. Without the body, we couldn't identify the cause of death, and the kidnappers frightened by the events could have pulled it up."
It's true. The meritorious men this time are undoubtedly those of Mizki and the Deebolt family.
Those two elements were too unexpected for the mastermind, creating a breakthrough in a measure that was perfect.
"Beware is more imperative than there is still a mastermind left. And the same goes for sharing information. Then…"
"I see. That's right, Lord Demon King, do you take that as a reason why our country has been incorporated into this one!
You even guessed the part I didn't say, King Kivella nodded as convinced. I know the other two have thought of 'the possibility', but I can't say anything on this occasion.
King Kivera, who perceived it, opens his mouth himself.
"Is our country's role 'a debacle that causes disharmony to the affected country'! Sure, how about working together while we're still weighing our distance from each other? If you fall into suspicious darkness, even that information becomes suspicious. … well thought out."
Kivela, however unstable, is a great power. Why I bothered to do harm and get involved in such a country.
I wondered whether that was not 'to induce discord between the affected countries'.
If the information is shared and the hands are put together, that's all the masterminds won't be able to take the next action. Then you don't have to let them put their hands together. Exchange beings worthy of the 'evil' needed to disrupt the sum.
"It can't be easier to get along than with previous perceptions of Kivera. Based on that, the sharing of information and future cooperation will also rub off somewhere. It could be a source of contention."
Abominable, if only said by the Chancellor.
"Kivela and the Wizard are hostile, and neither are we in a calm relationship with Kivela. And now that it's collapsed there's a gap to get into.... If we circulate false information, we can easily distrust each other. No, maybe that's where the next move starts."
As Lord Glenn continued, he uttered about 'what could happen in the future'. My expression gets tough by accident, too.
What a disgusting mastermind. Even self-destruct afterwards ploughed into the measure, trying to flirt with us.
It was surprisingly King Kivela who broke such an atmosphere.
"Well, based on that this time, I let this one hit my hand."
Everyone's gaze concentrates on unexpected words. Taking that gaze, King Kivela continued his words.
"The one who brought you here this time is familiar with the Master of Magic, right? He will still be in the room with the rest of the country. So what happens if I show my closeness to the Wizard?"
"Oh, did he know His Majesty the Mage?"
When all unexpectedly the Chancellor raises his voice, King Kivela gives a slightly troubled look.
"You know each other, or to the extent that they remember your name and your position. Virgil, who under the same conditions was Lucas, has made insulting remarks about Irfena in a way that follows Lucas. I was punished... so I brought Cyrus."
"Oh, was it to show that we were close enough to exchange words with Mizuki? Sure, Mizuki would be wary if a stranger with no name approached him intimately. It would be the perfect candidate to tell your surroundings that Kivela is not in a particularly sinister relationship with the Magician."
When he snorted all convinced, King Kivela continued, "And no."
"Kivela did eliminate the overwhelming advantage. But at the same time, it was possible to review the way the country is and eliminate the unnecessary… some gained. In the long run, you could call it a good cut."
Is that because you realized the size of the spark that was smoking inside, or because you faced the threat of other countries joining hands?
Either way, I guess I had something to think about. Well, it looks like he was plotting the abolition of Lucas, and I'm sure there was something 'gained'.
I don't know the details, but Kivera may also be looking for ways to be in the future. Is care for Irfena part of this?
Has it come to my face that I thought it was a very attentive candidate? King Kivela nodded with a serious face.
"If you want to show your sincerity, you have to take that into account. That is the criterion by which the way our country is found is appreciated."
To this word, I learned that King Kivera's words of 'showing sincerity' were sincere. Magic Instructor - I wouldn't give a shit if I just showed up to get along with Mizuki.
Respect and care paid for a small country, not a magician. You can't possibly not appreciate that.
But King Kivera let his gaze swim somewhat hard to say.
"It's just... Well, it seems that the Demon Master treats Cyrus like a 'toy'. Yeah, I have a purpose to tell Cyrus. Seems to me that Cyrus himself has something to think about, as much as he has a shard of the Master of Magic."
... Wait. What did you just say?
I felt it contained too many noisy remarks. The first Chancellor and Glenn, with a proper gaze, are looking at King Kivela with cancer.
"Lord Cyrus, how does Mizuki treat...?
Ask King Kivela as he becomes aware of the cramps in his face. Then he leaned his neck slightly - perhaps suspicious of our attitude, which changed at once - and uttered words he didn't want to hear.
"'Toys' and. Well, this time around, there will be others, and there will be no danger."
'What an outrageous candidate...!
The voice of our hearts would have been beautifully hammered. Though I didn't have a choice, it's something I've done a lot harshly.
However, this is affected by the fact that Mizuki is basically isolated. Even Alberda would struggle with a candidate without Lord Glenn.
It's hard to notice because of the intimacy with all the big guys, but Mizuki doesn't know many people - face and name matching, or close enough to have a conversation. That's normal, given the fact that you're from another world.
I can't help but sympathize with Lord Cyrus for all those circumstances.
"Toys." Well, did you give Mizuki a sacrifice for someone to be treated like a 'toy'? But King Kivera seems surprised by our reaction.
... Speaking of which, even though I know quite a bit about the destructiveness of my personality, from Kivela, Mizki's - the threat of a demon conductor is strongly perceived by those who are violent aspects such as' icing 'and' town of the Necromancer 'or' collapse of the castle (attempted) '.
In the first place, those who belong to the upper echelons of Quivera do not know the 'Truth of the Mage Master' because each country spoke.
I guess the two remaining ones are aware of that. I let my gaze swim and still couldn't tell the truth.
"Well, my surrounding eyes would just hurt somewhat where I got stuck. It's also suitable for the thoughts of our country, so I suppose Cyrus will endure it, too?
'No, no, no! That's definitely not a little bit of mental pain! All I see is a future where you can be treated like a toy without a joke and look pity in the eye from around you!
The voice of such a heart will not reach King Kivela.
No, we and King Kivela have too different perceptions of Mizuki. Understand that tongue-demonstration, because I don't think it's possible.
Unexpectedly far-sighted. Actually, Mizuki also has a purpose for this gathering. And I've allowed it.
In a sense, the person named Cyrus is not pitiful as the person responsible for Mizuki's one stick.
I couldn't resist more than being a royal fate. Or I guess I took it on because I understood it was necessary... too bad.
Cyrus and the others are undoubtedly Mizuki's prey of the day.
Poor knights are targeted by their loyalty...!
…… Sorry, my stupid cat. "
Unexpectedly bow your head. King Kivera looks surprised at the abrupt apology, but I couldn't help but bow my head.
I see the Chancellor and Lord Glenn with pitiful eyes, but I still don't hear him say stop.
... they also know Mizuki. If they had been Mizki's guardians, they would have bowed their heads just like me.
"Ugh, um? I don't know, I'll tell Cyrus."
"Please"
That's what I say and I look up. Pretend not to look at the guilt that still creeps into your chest.
And to achieve our original purpose - I didn't change the subject! … I would like to think -, I asked everyone for an earlier proposal.
"Can you make an inviolable treaty with that?
"Uhm. Let's promise to protect Noh during his reign. Apart from the kidnapping incident, the current vague state of affairs would not be good for both sides. It is also easy to respond if one standard is clarified. After that, things will change again, but you just have to grab each other's distance in that period."
Immediately King Kivera nodded and agreed. I guess he decided that the criterion of 'inviolability' was necessary not only for Kivela, but also for his opponent.
It is on this side that security is guaranteed in the sense of aggression, but it is not a loss for Kivera either.
For example... in diplomacy, blackmailing methods such as' The Wizard is on our side 'and' Other countries are on our side 'will be unavailable.
Such responses in diplomacy will naturally also be included in the prohibition. It is a pact to avoid discord, both aggression and intimidation, including provocation, should be banned.
He was the king of Quivera… a ruler who was supreme in power and at the same time received support from his subordination and the people. If the king's word, it will always be preserved.
"I personally agree with you, too. Exactly. I can't respond on this occasion, but I support it."
"Likewise. If you're going to give me your personal opinion, I was wondering if it would be the best hand. It would be the same here to be confused by diplomacy, which is too different… it would also be a great way to get rid of people who say stupid things"
The Chancellor made it clear that he would support it modestly, but as an individual.
Lord Glenn is willing to use it to eliminate fools, even the consequences of it. I think you know Mizuki on these points.
So does Mizuki, but there is an unexpected and thorough glimpse of misery. Sometimes the priorities will be clear, but the way they are split is awesome.
"By the way, will the Wizard be convinced of that? He doesn't seem hostile to Kivera right now, but he wouldn't even be friendly. Don't you have a lot to think about?
Speaking of which, King Kivera speaks the question. Since Mizki acts only as an 'individual', he probably wondered if there was any point in an inviolable treaty or something like that.
Indeed, this is only an arrangement between countries. Unfenced otherworlds are suspiciously effective to the point where they act personally.
- But.
"It's okay. Mizuki is awesome with those splits. So I understand that the other day's incident with Princess Celestina was also" over. "
"Hmm? It seemed like it was moving with a lot of personal emotion?
Skeptical - caused by Mizki's attitude, absolutely - snorts confidently at King Kivela's words as well. This is a different matter from Mizuki's belonging to Ilfena or his nostalgia for me.
"'To negotiate the transfer of agricultural land with Irfena', and 'to apologise to King Kivella himself to Zebrest'. On these two conditions Mizuki held up her shaken hand.... at this point, it's not 'a matter of individual magicians', it's 'diplomacy between nations'. It will be more 'over' for Mizuki than you have achieved it."
"You think that girl can make that decision?
"I can. Or you're right that you were going to do that from the beginning. Kivela is a big country in the heart of the country involved, so it's annoying whether there's civil unrest or rubbing with another country."
……
Everyone shut up with an indescribable look. Yes, very... for very personal reasons, Mizuki just wanted these settlements.
'To be clear, it would be awkward to find out about that Kivera-related thing later. So for me, for the country [it's over, isn't it!] I think we need to recognize that'
"It's [over] more than we convinced each other, isn't it? There will be changes in relations between countries in the future, but previous perceptions are in the way. In the first place, didn't I almost just hang out with Kivera on this one? It is also frustrating for other countries to use the results, making them unusable. '
The merchants are in trouble when Kivela and I get off the hook! There are aspects of Kivela that serve as a place for merchants to interact, as well as obstacles to gathering information and so on. Even though it works great in many ways!
... They asked me such a stupid question, how do you want me to explain it?
You will also understand the importance of connecting countries, but more importantly, personal thoughts that an individual's evil deeds will not be found out.
It is an irresistible stupid cat.
At least, I just want to deny that this is my education.
"Is it so divisible?"
Though it seems complicated, the Chancellor raises questions. As for him, considering that Mizuki is an otherworldly man, he said, 'Is it something that can be broken up that far? Civilians?' I guess I thought.
But he only got a chance to relate to Mizuki very recently. As far as Lord Glenn was concerned, he looked at the Chancellor with an objectified expression.
The look obviously said, 'That's good, I can't believe you think of him like that'. That's dating from the original world, he understands Mizuki very well.
"... I don't worry about splitting it up. Emphasis on results, hindering emotions, etc. is clean and refreshing! I'll cut it off."
"Eh."
"I come to this world and I get depressed... or they didn't have three days to worry about it, did they? And by the way, it's been three days, including when I showed a slightly distressing gesture."
The otherworldly life, which began abruptly, baffled and depressed Mizki. That's normal, something's wrong with people who accept it lightly.
They don't have magic in Mizuki's world in the first place. From that point of view, too, it would have been hard to believe in transworld metastases.
Except there's a daughter who goes all over herself on the ground by the horror.
I learned magic can be used, or I learned it fast… to "make my life comfortable"!
If you're from a highly skilled world, it's inconvenient and natural. But why magically make it happen...? It is a tremendous obsession.
Preliminary magic is like healing and detoxification, so I should have just taught Gordon and to the extent that 'there are other offensive magics'. That's all you have to understand.
Absolutely, Absolutely Mizuki's own magic is influenced by that daughter's ton of demo ideas. Even Klaus and the others don't fully understand.
"You didn't just say that in person, you had a lot of events that I think are true. I will also tell you that Kivera is involved as an aggrieved country in this case. Or so I came to the point. I didn't have any feelings for making fun of myself for being harmed by mistake."
"... No, I don't think so either, do you? Has our country been defeated by that degree of emotion?
King Kivera is drawing his face in a different way. Right, sure, that's humiliating.
However, the hand of salvation was reached out from Lord Glenn here.
"Mizuki 'remembers it as a fact' that it's past, but if you're ready, there's nothing to rot after. I know emotions cloud my eyes, and..."
So Lord Glenn cut off his words once and sighed.
"On the contrary, it's only a forward-looking personality. Because it is better for Mizuki to improve the relationship between Kivela and her surroundings, we will decide what to do in the future in the direction of 'Results Focus'."
……
It is an outer passage. I mean, judgment based on understanding what 'the best for me' is.
There is nowhere else for you to be found, such as your kind-hearted daughter, who is called "the exonerating magician." Interpretation is a fantasy.
"That means if it is personally beneficial to antagonize Kivera..."
"Keep it up. No, they will use it in a grand way to appeal to hostilities."
The Lord Glenn is also clear in his doubts about the Chancellor, who attracted his face. King Kivela also remains just as silent.
……
You should have already said this.
"Actually, there was a point in proving that the reason Mizuki is there now is' not particularly friendly with Kivela, but not in conflict ', and telling him' there is no mercy that it would be a friendly relationship '. The other day, I swallowed rumors of a" culpable magician, "and some people tried to use it conveniently."
If sighed but exposed, the two other people besides Lord Glenn, who was a party, also showed an understanding with a strangely convincing look.
"It must be... vigilant and natural."
"Hmm, isn't that self-defense you can do as that girl"
Yeah, King Kivera. Your speculation is correct. You're right, though!
"The way to tell them that it would be a friendly relationship is to" thoroughly beat them down. "The point is to let Mizuki know her own personality."
"" "What?
"The victim will continue, won't he? I'm sure the participants can grieve over Mizuki's... demon mentor's suckiness. It would be a good opportunity because 'we have never met in person before' is misleading."
Tell you what, the victims won't think 'good opportunity' or anything, even if they're wrong.
Or the aim is to scare them and get them to tell their country. Because "Reporting to the King" doesn't include personal feelings, falsehoods, etc., that's why Mizuki targeted it.
"So Mizuki was over there? I thought it was strange. If you want to open a different world food business, it would be more efficient if you weren't there."
Lord Glenn nods smudgingly. He seems to have been a little odd because he has been dating Mizuki from day to day.
"If he was there, he'd end up in a 'personal conversation', but if he wasn't there, I'd be a 'diplomat' through the country, if I were to say more. So if you stop in the eyes of the upper management of our country, there will be talk of..."
I mean, that's not what I'm after this time. Due to very personal circumstances, Mizuki was waiting for the spider.
The Chancellor accidentally leaks a bitter laugh.
"Shall I also be exposed, then? Sieg and the others were there to make sure that they were sincere with the Magic Master, but Celian accompanied them with vigilance to allow others to enter the Magic Master. Well... as a country, I took care of you a little bit."
That would be about the Queen of Barraksin. As a result, Mizuki has also paid for her many years of worries, so is it that she has shown her gratitude in the dark?
And everyone's gaze turned to nature and Lord Glenn. A situation full of backs so far, it would be more impossible to suspect.
"I'm not doing 'nothing'"
... but what was told was an unexpected word. But there was Mizuki's disciple.
"My country has never dealt with a magician except His Majesty and some of the extreme. I mean, I thought it was a good opportunity to find out what kind of person the Magic Instructor is. So..."
Once I cut the words, I laughed.
"We have accompanied those who think in the direction of using it. They also think of their claims as' for the good of the country ', and they have loyalty to His Majesty. But it's hard to tell the difference between what's available and what's not."
"No, that's..."
My face is unwittingly drawn. Wouldn't that be King's approval and say, 'I was going to make you a victim from the start'?
"But you were convenient. As a matter of fact, I asked Mizuki earlier to 'play with me a little bit when you get here'. When I told you what was going on, you took it easy on me. That must have been some side of the coincidence."
I have no malice for Lord Glenn, who speaks like nothing. Seriously, it seems to have gone to "To teach the nature of a magician named Mizuki".
"Oh yeah, didn't you just say 'I didn't do anything'?
With a shudder - you just seem to have to be shuddered, that's just what I did with Mizuki - Lord Glenn looked surprised when King Kivela asked.
"Even if you don't say anything, their thoughts and so on, Mizuki will quickly break through. That's why I didn't give them instructions. I was just anxious to be a good girl, so I said," Whatever you do, I won't blame you. "
……
I'm not wrong. You didn't even take measures or burn your peers.
It's just... 'I cut the country off from their ratings' because I knew Mizuki's character. Moreover, in the way Lord Glenn put it, it seems that he praised it in Alberda.
Make the deaf child feel painful and understand.
Sure you'll wear it...... maybe it'll be traumatic though.
"So... the two of you who are supposed to be her guardians are here right now."
To the words of the Chancellor, turn to Argent and Klaus, where everyone's gaze was held back in the corner of the room.
Argent smiled with the same smile as usual, and Klaus remained as faceless as ever.
"Oh, our Lord is His Highness Elshon, who is there. If you are here, it is only natural to refrain from doing so."
"It has been determined that obstruction may come, so I am in charge of the magic escort."
……
Without being frightened by our gaze, everyone's eyes turned raw and warm to the two of us.
Excuses...... different, very convincing as an argument. But nobody thinks so, including me.
"You escaped."
I guess the groaning of Lord Glenn, who sounded pompous, was everyone's summation. Needless to say everyone snorted by accident.
