The Magician Wants Normality

Malice and friendship are secretly two of them.

- In Irfena Gardens (Apostolic Perspective from Harvis)

- Oh, my God, the timing seemed 'good', huh?

To the words I was told with an inadvertent laugh, I realized that this encounter had been set up.

It will be true that those who belong to the highest ranks of the nations are 'friends of the magician'. Because it's not surprising that there's such a connection.

In fact, such demon leaders should have made some contribution in their respective countries. There will be a difference between rumors and facts, but only because 'involved' is true.

... but is that the only thing that leads to personal favors?

In the first place, I was questioning the rumors of the Mage himself.

Because all of them have been positioned as' good things', the magician is not so fearful, he is called 'the exonerating magician', etc.

Of course, given how she has come to move, I can say 'it has had good results for the country'.

For personal reasons or not, it would be a job given via a guardian, but that's the only unwavering fact. I'm not willing to deny it either.

But the magician is only supposed to be in the position of 'outsider'.

No matter how good the results are, those who devote themselves to the country over the original can't be amused. Because even they have pride.

With that in mind, it would be easy to have the impression that 'the magician is the one who produces the results, but is alerted by dignitaries from all countries'.

Competent people are reliable if they are pawns, but if they are different, they are 'no wonder they are enemies whenever they become'.

As far as I can guess from previous rumours, only Irfena and Zebrast will not be enemies of the Mage. This is the presence of His Highness Elshon, his guardian, in great measure.

Ilfena is' the country to which His Highness Elshon belongs'.

Zebrest is a 'friendly country ruled by His Highness Elshon's friends'.

It is His Royal Highness Elshon who is the standard for both. The Wizard seems to have good friends in other countries... but that is only 'personal dating'. 'Cause [the country] is not the object of favor'.

Many will think so. Regardless of Irfena, there can be no such thing as an outsider, the Wizard, 'cherishing it to another country'. There can't be that much loyalty and service.

... Yet.

And yet, what the hell does this mean......!?

"Is it so strange that we're close to her?

"Right...... right. Yeah, to be honest, I'm surprised. If you're Corbella, Zebrast, or Sarovara, you can be convinced of that. But I didn't know you had connections with other countries..."

I painstakingly return it to Carlossa's assistant prime minister, whom I have asked.

Yes, in those three countries, I was convinced with me. In these three kingdoms, the Wizard is like a hero who saved his country. No wonder you're citing your country as a hero.

Well, Sarovara is restricted to 'royal neighbors only'. Most nobles - those who took the royal family lightly - must be grudging rather than thankful because they were really relentless.

But what about the rest of the country?

Were you prepared to be friendly, just to connect with a powerful handkerchief?

Even if I think about it, I don't know the right answer. You perceived my confusion like that, Carlossa's assistant prime minister leaked a funny laugh.

"Pfft. Right, I guess. Yeah, it's natural to think so. But we're really close to that little girl."

…… Why would I ask you that?

"Of course, I don't mind."

It's nothing to hide, and continued, Carlossa's assistant prime minister deepened his grin.

The face is not a pranky look as if it were to expose a secret to be kept...... etc.

"That kid, he specializes in the back. Self-proclaimed 'brainwork, at the same time, specialising in rough affairs. Your Close Fear."

I said something even more outrageous, like a public story that I didn't need to hide.

"Yes......?

I don't know what that means.

Carlossa's assistant prime minister laughed with pleasure at me with such emotions on my face.

"As you know, the Wizard...... Mizki is a different world man. The position is to say that you are a magician, and you treat people like civilians. That kid knows enough about it. So, while you pawn those who pledge allegiance to your country, you do what you can."

I can see that. That is why I cannot believe in the achievements of the Magic Master as it is.

No matter how hard you try, you can get into the realm of 'those in charge of the country's politics' - places where you need an identity to express an opinion, or where certain positions are imperative to intervene - beyond the assumption that you have 'no identity'.

Give up a hundred steps, and maybe Irfena, whose guardian, His Highness Elshon, is there, can handle it... but the rest of the country won't be able to do it with boulders. This is the same with a guardian.

If you only hear the word 'guardian', it seems as if you are protecting a different world. But in fact, the implication of surveillance of the otherworlds is strong, and its loyalty lies with the country, and with the king.

Therefore, if the otherworlds have disproportionate wishes, they will be deterred from doing so. Guardians and those bracketed in one organization: the country - no more imitations to disturb it. Not even a king can command them.

"No matter how much the asylum of His Highness Elshon may be, in other countries, is that not possible?

"Oh, what makes you think that?

"You too have the pride of devoting yourselves to your country. Even though I am a magician, I do not think I will allow the outsiders to vandalize me"

As soon as I said so, Carlossa's assistant prime minister's eyes lit up swordswallowing light. On the other hand, the grin that was floating in my mouth deepens.

Unexpectedly back about a half step, but there's no way he cared about it. Ningro, you even seemed to enjoy my reaction.

"Yes... you're right. With me, I regretted it. But...... what I consider to be the top is not 'my emotions'. In the first place, let's point those emotions at that child, in and of itself, at the wrong place?

"Different gate, is it"

"Naturally. You and I have been referring to her as an 'outsider' for some time." The one who is not supposed to be involved, "and" by being involved, you don't have to buy grudges. "

"Ah......!

Unexpectedly, I leak my voice. Yes, I was only thinking about things in the same line of positions as myself: nobility. So I could say, 'I don't think I would allow the outsiders to vandalize me,' etc.

But from the point of view of the Wizard, what do you say?

I don't think I'd stick my neck in the country's troubles myself. Because it's not necessary, and it's 'what you don't know'.

Because it's the role she wanted, she delivers results. It was...... the upper echelons of the country that wanted it. Nothing but rebellion, such as neglect.

"Still, that kid gave me results. Being hated by those who have driven them down, and being malicious of misunderstandings by the nobles, is all in the knowledge!... How can you not be grateful? We are the ones who are not worthy."

"How did you get so far..."

"Come on? I never asked you in person. But if it's for your beloved Highness Elshon, it doesn't matter how much malice you can turn against him."

"... Mizuki doesn't give a shit about that."

Unexpectedly, another voice mixes. It was His Royal Highness Shuanze, the second prince of Gania, who told him bitterly.

"You know that too, don't you? that our country has recently been able to rub in crappy brotherly fights"

"Yes. I can't say it's all, but mostly"

I can't just say, 'Your real parents were told to execute you, right?' but I say it in a faint way. His Royal Highness Schanze seems to have noticed that, too, and he didn't dare pursue it.

"At that time, Mizuki was beside me. When Tezelt, Prince Wang, met His Highness Elshon in Sarovara, he talked to him about my leg. He sent Mizuki to see if there was hope for knowledge of the other world."

- I still need rehab, but my legs are healed, too.

Stunned by the facts told. The magician is truly brilliant, such as treating what is considered impossible at the moment.

"Oh my..."

"I can't help but be surprised. But that's not all I'm surprised about."

One sigh, His Highness Shuanze lays down his eyes. His servant turns his gaze as if he were going to work, but His Highness Schanze does not mind it and turned his eyes to me again.

"What did I get wrong, Mr. and Mrs. Wang thought Mizuki was on my side. Naturally, the Wang brothers and his wife, who did not want me or the Tezelts to have power, tried to eliminate Mizuki. Some kings only see me as Tezert's enemy. I can tell you that Mizuki and I were really in danger of our lives."

"I'm sorry to hear that."

That's all I can say. If the information is true, he should have always been a member of the Kings and an ally of the King Prince Tezert.

Still, I spoiled the situation...... because it was also true that he was the real son of the King's brother and his wife and that he had the right to inheritance to be the next king.

There is also the fact that there is nothing we can do about it. Metaphor, even if he doesn't want it.

And unto the magician, he is utterly convoluted. Come to treat your feet, why should they be targeted for attack?

Selfish indignation, coming from a slight sense of justice. Even if you're not a party, it's an 'unfortunate event' that just seems like it when you listen to it.

... but such feelings will be fogged by the continued words.

"But His Highness Elshon told me this to Mizki." Protect His Royal Highness Schanze. "

"... Yes?

What the hell is that? Isn't that 'come back to Ilfena'?!?

"I've been taken aback, too. However, Mizuki agreed and tried to shoot all the attacks back. In Gania, Mizuki is feared by the nobles... because he has no identity and has made them live up to the expectations of His Highness Elshon while in the position of outsider."

"Nah..."

I have no words. You put me in such an unreasonable situation, but without resenting me, you said you let me do my job brilliantly!?

Whether you are a knight or a magician, it is not easy to protect His Highness the Schuanze at the time. It's not just because the opponent is the King's brother, it's because the surroundings are almost enemies. With the king and his wife and the king's prince, there will be limits to shelter.

- In other words, the magician did it almost on his own.

It was the strength of the person and... loyalty to His Highness Elshon that made it possible. 'I can't help but make an excuse' than to be a promise to the royalty of another country. If you fulfill it, it will be a disgrace to His Highness Elshon.

"You're right. Mizuki understood that the failure of the mission would put mud on His Highness Elshon's face. So I sent him down. Let her tell you, she doesn't have time for all the noise around her, does she?

A surrounding murmur would be malice directed at a magician sitting in Gania. Maybe her presence wasn't funny with the knights who were protecting Her Highness more than her ex.

Aware of it, the Magic Instructor gave priority to fulfilling the mission imposed.... even if, as a result, you are going to make enemies.

"Lord Magic Master... are you so loyal to His Highness Elshon..."

"Well, Mizuki loves her parents."

The words of His Royal Highness Schanze, returned to the vaguely murmured words. I'm saying 'I love parents' and so on in a voice that includes laughter, but I guess that's actually what it is.

Because I'm convinced of that as a fact, the worst possibilities don't go by in my brain.

……

Harvis... may have turned a more troublesome presence on the enemy than Ilfena...
