The Magician Wants Normality

- Irfena Royal Castle - In A Room (Rudolph Perspective)

Even though I said I was staying at the castle, while the second prince was falling into the raid. I didn't leave the room I was given, I was just showing Elshon around.

Of course, I'm doing what I have to do right after the raid. I wouldn't have been able to afford a wounded Elshon, but I have predictions of the 'troubles' that would have been assumed when I replaced myself with his position.

Then I wanted to use the position of 'King of Friendly Countries Involved in Raids' - unwillingly, but this is how my current position is perceived - and do everything I could.

At the very least, so that those in charge of escorts can be cautious.

lest enter into the relationship between Ilfena and Zebrast.

If it's true, I guess there will be advice for Mizuki in here... Mizuki is a folk treated otherworlder and he can't even see me that easily. In the first place, Mizuki is not in Ilfena.

Therefore, it would be helpless not to have been informed of Elshon's message or of his concern.

Yes, I have no choice. I don't expect Mizuki to retaliate.

……

That's what you're gonna do. I'm aware of how much my personal feelings are affecting me, but it's not something I can forgive for to attack Elshon.

But when I finished them, I stopped doing things as soon as I could. Even if we were to return home, we needed to make sure that we were safe, and more than that… Now that we had returned quickly, it was possible that the information about the raid would not have come in until the case was settled.

Exactly, because I'm not convinced of that, I'm staying with a lot of people. Arvi, who remains in Zebrast, accepted me, so I'm not worried about my country.

- And today, I gradually get a meeting with Mizuki.

It's about Mizuki, I don't think he's done anything since he got home. I heard about Elshon and the raid on me, and there's no way that he wouldn't be mad.

... even before, it has always been so. You'll be angry, you'll see, and you'll be glad we're okay.

That makes me feel just a little bit better. Unlike before, there is no fear of being left by friends. It wasn't a strength, it really seemed that way.

Neither Mizuki nor Elshon would do anything to blame me. In the past, I am strangely certain that those who have been hurt because of me will not be like those who have blamed me.

I guess you call this trust. The time we have spent together is short in itself, but what we have gained is very large. Sayle and the others are relatively calm because I'm not that depressed?

"Dear Rudolph, are you okay?

Sail reluctantly asks because he knows Mizuki is coming. Sayle has been beside me since she was a little girl, so she still couldn't help but worry.

……

Naturally, too. It's weirder to think you're fine than you know all about my depressions in the past. Especially since Elshon is my shield this time, they probably think I'm mourning my powerlessness.

- But that's a concern.

With a smile on my mouth. When Sayle looked at it and laughed harder, I flaunted my shoulders.

"There's nothing like what you guys are telling me. Of course, it is regrettable that Elshon was injured. But Elshon said," Meaning to a friend who thinks like my brother. "

"! That's..."

"Of course, it was also an action in the sense of 'protecting the king of a friendly country'. But Elshon's true story is that way. Mizuki would do it once in a while, wouldn't she? There are two reasons for this."

If you're going to give an easy-to-understand example, is that when you protected His Highness the Schanze from the raids in Gania? At that time, Mizki was fleeing with His Highness Shuanze in his arms, eventually sinking the raiders into the ground.

In doing so, he said, 'Isn't it natural for me, a civilian and a magician, to protect His Highness the Shyanze, in his honorable capacity!' Something called.

……

Sure, I didn't say anything wrong.

If it's a combination of "The Demon Guide to Civilian Treatment" and "Royalty," it's the right decision.

... but if that's what Mizuki meant, that's definitely not all.

In fact, I held up His Highness the Schanze (!) Mizuki seemed to have a lot of fun. There was no such thing as putting your face up to the crisis, and it was huge.

"Look, why don't you catch me? 'No one seriously thinks that the guy who runs around saying' is escorting him. Ning Lo, I sympathize with the pathetic guys caught up in Mizuki's" Play ".

Mizuki, who decided to escape from the window on the upper floor as it was, said, "In return to my childhood heart, I worked for the hero of the story. It was hilarious! 'so I'm pretty sure I didn't do the reflection. It would also be natural for the gaze of pity from other countries to turn to His Highness the Schanze and the Raiders.

As it were, well, it certainly seemed interesting. His Royal Highness Schanze also eventually laughed, so partially black history, I suppose, enjoyed it. Blah, I want to try one day too.

Well, anyway.

Even though it won't be so unscrupulous, it turns out, 'The Magic Master protected His Highness Schanze'. I thought Elshon's behavior was similar to this one.

"Totally, it's cat parents and kids like each other. If Mizuki were in the same situation, she would behave the same as Elshon. Well, in his case, it would be counter-attack. So... I'm not as depressed as Sayle and the others have shown me. I don't even think Mizuki can blame me. In his case, he's going to scold you for being depressed."

"That's well... because it's Mizuki. He'll think of immediate retribution."

"Wouldn't!?" It's the real deal from where you crawl up! 'Cause I've been saying it every day. Successful or positive... that's about the guy who runs out of words about' sleeping can be done after death '"

"Indeed."

You remember, there's a bitter smile on Sail's face, too. Still no word of denial, so I guess Sail understands Mizuki as well as I do. In a sense, a good fiancée - meaning not to push general theory on Mizki - is.

While doing so, Sayle had a merciful grin.

"The past had become an indelible wound for us too....... I know how hurt you have been behind the fact that you 'couldn't protect'. It's not light enough to be done with the word 'I had no choice'"

……

"Whenever I'm about to lean down, it's the reprimand of His Highness Elshon that made us look up. He knew the importance of looking forward because he was struggling.... I'm sure it didn't reach us, such as words from anyone other than His Highness Elshon. You must have thought the outsiders were beautiful."

That said, Sail lays his eyes down. I didn't have the words to call either. If it was me and Sail's position, I would have thought so.

"And Mizki shows in action, not words. You're forcing us to make a decision after putting in place a situation where we have to look forward… For less fenced than His Highness Elshon, there is no reluctance, or forcefulness... there is really no forgiveness"

"I guess that's not just us. Many of the countries in which he was involved had to act as a result. Don't let the outsiders do what they want... I can't expose you to ugliness."

Basically, Mizuki just scratches around. No matter what they say about 'exonerating magicians', you have no right to actually punish them. It is also impossible to participate in politics, so it will be in the form of succession by those from all countries.

As a result, they will probably connect to their own merit and confidence. This happens because Mizuki is not interested in things like fame, and Ershon doesn't want to use Mizuki to sell his favors either.

At the end of it, I guess there are two current ratings. They're not after them either - at least, Elshon is vegan - and I can understand how Elshon feels confused about unexpected evaluations.

"… so. It's not something I can forgive for this time."

The sounded voice is very quiet, something that even sounds kind. Earlier, when he opened his eyes lightly, Sail had a grin that smelled cruel on his face, dubbed 'beautiful'.

"The one I should give top priority to is Master Rudolph and the country. I'm not going to make a difference with that. But… the existence that was necessary to form the 'present' and is included there. I have nothing more to say publicly than being a knight of another country, but I'm not going to hide it either"

Sail's eyes shone a swordswallowing light. What lies ahead of that gaze must be the existence that planned this raid.

"It is not heartbreaking enough to leave the faults that have put the Lord at risk intact. If you can move 'in some way', be happy to wave your sword and dye 'enemy' red. You'd be mad at a black cat for not wanting to get bloodstained."

…… Oh, I guess so. "

Neither Mizki nor the knights of Elshon are heartless. Only Mizuki stands out, but he is fierce enough to be flatly tamed by the Elshon knights. In the first place, he is in a position to be entrusted with the work behind him.

It's absolutely impossible, such as they're adulterating. Same goes for Mizuki.

I guess Sail uses the position of guardian and hopes to get himself involved in some way too. Basically for Sayle, who wouldn't leave beside me, this was a rare claim.

... No, should I say I'm angry enough to do that? Apparently, those who planned the raid enraged Sail enough to evoke a killer known as the 'Red Hero'.

But... not bad. I got Sail's wish, and there's a grin in my mouth, too.

"Right, we're a fine party, too. Mizuki can't do anything, so let me bite one."

- So, work full.

That's what I tried to order, to block my words.

"Sorry to bother you! Rudolph, join us for dinner!

"Excuse me, Master Rudolph. What Mizuki said and did... I'm glad you took a big look..."

Mizuki, who opened the door with a lot of momentum and came in without a knock, and his amulet… was not, Argent, who is turned into an escort and luggage holder. I guess Argent sometimes thinks of Mizuki's attitude as he grins and begs forgiveness.

Still don't blame Mizuki for caring about me that would be depressing? It is true that the amount of meals has fallen considerably, so I think Mizuki's "rice" is coming from there as well.

"Ha... Mizuki is the same..."

"Really."

"To?"

Until then, the slaughtered air disappears beautifully, turning a raw warm eye toward Mizuki. Mizuki can't read the signs, so he wouldn't have done it for him. I can see that. I know.

"You, read some air. No, just a few more minutes, come late!

"Ouch!? What are you doing, Rudolph?

"Don't break the atmosphere of the place!

"No, I don't know what that means!?

If you slap him on the forehead, he will raise his dissatisfaction quickly. I thought of a friend who hadn't recovered yet, reassured by the same reaction as usual.

Elshon, come back soon. Again, Mizuki needs a parent cat.
