The Witch, Who Once Was Called A Saint

The second banquet at the fort was also still led by Ios and Astreia.

This time Morga is with the watch, he can sit loose in the upper seat without getting tangled up by a drunk...... but it is that there is a place for a drunk.

"... Captain. I'm too drunk."

"Are you there? Drink, too. You don't know when this is gonna be a fancy banquet, do you? Besides, you and the lady are getting along.

Astreia slipped into the speech of such a sphale.

I don't think Ios is the one to say that, but he grasps himself with military discipline, etc. - No, it doesn't seem as far as Ios' surprised face goes.

"Oh, my God, I'm still the captain, huh? I've been watching the crew."

"Then be a little more pissy. It just looks like you drank it."

"What?!?"

Ios was forced to drink the water while taking up a glass of Sufale.

There was a lot of water spilling, but Ios doesn't look like he cared at all either.

(... Ios, too, is it illuminating?

If so, the current face seems to be the external illuminating face of Ios, so if I remember, I'm likely to be able to nibble inside later. And the rest would be best if I were allowed to illuminate more... Can I speak to illuminate myself first, just thinking about it makes Astreia herself likely to illuminate.

"Neither does Ray drink because he's confused."

"... is it broken?"

It's always' Ray 'that Ios calls Astraia's name in public.

Ray wouldn't have a rare name, but he just said the name of the Virgin named Astraia is too conspicuous. Ugh, you think there's too much fear for anyone to name it?

(Well, still, it's Astreia when you two are. It may or may not feel special)

As Astraia was thus being replaced with a glass of juice, a mostly clothe-wet sphale yawned greatly with water, and asked Ios as he slept.

"Speaking of which, you guys, when's the ceremony? Naturalization. When?

"" Ha!? "

"What, you haven't talked to me like that yet? Look, Ios, it feels mellow already since I met your daughter, like what she said when she was drunk while eating meat..."

"Captain, let's just shut up for a second."

Ios was not hesitant to tighten his superior officer with the momentum to headlock him.

Whether or not even a booze seat is critical is its line.

…………

But Astraia stops moving unexpectedly to her unexpected remarks, and Ios seemed to have red ears.

"Oh, you know, Ios"

"What?"

"Perhaps as it is, captain, bubbles..."

To Astraia's words, Ios let go of his hand all the time in the condition of "ah".

Sufale was gaining momentum.

"Holy shit, I just made fun of you and you're in terrible shape."

"You deserve it."

"You apologize."

"No, sir."

Astreia shrugged her shoulders at such ios and sphale interactions.

"In the first place, it's too early to get married, and you've been dating for at least a year, and you've been engaged for a year.

""... Huh?

"Huh?"

Did I say something strange?

Astraia with her neck hanging with that in mind, but she must not have said anything strange.

"As it is, well, a year is the lowest line, so I think there are a lot longer cases... now it's two years? Maybe three years? Are you that stretched or something?

Sometimes it's been short since the war got worse, but Astreia thinks that should have been the standard if it was a peaceful time. Could that mean don't be in such a hurry? Is it out of common sense?

Ios and Sufale, in front of the bewildered Astraia, were pulling her cheeks.

"Ma'am, are you from a region with a lot of old-fashioned habits? If you think you can do iosfolight, say it sooner or later, you'll be waiting a lot longer."

"... remains, well, more than a year after your engagement, there is quite a bit. Even the aristocrats there have been saying for six months that it is now, right?"

"If you're bad, even royalty is good enough."

... I don't know, he's not in the same situation as he thinks right now.

But Astraia, who still can't think of anything like that, decided not to hear it for the first time.

(So, but I can't believe they say it's an old-fashioned habit.... my common sense, maybe there are other things that are largely out of common sense of the public)

When that happens, it's not good.

I thought I'd have to study again so I wouldn't be ashamed.

Perhaps it would be a bad idea not to be able to read and write letters.

"Oh, yeah. Ios, this."

"Yeah? Oh, amulet"

"Yeah. Just keep your pockets, 'cause I'll forget to give them to you"

It's hard to say for myself that I did well...... but for one thing it should be finished without a problem. Letters are unmistakable characters because they are the characters you can use.

"... Hey, Ray. Hey here, haven't you got more?

"Oh, yeah? It's not your fault?

"Yeah. Maybe, it seems to be increasing... what does it say?

Astreia tried to flush Ios' point. But Ios' memory was better than I thought. I thought you wouldn't notice if the number of characters changed slightly because you wouldn't know the letters.

"It's not a big deal."

"If it's not a big deal, you can tell me."

"I'm not saying it's enough to care."

Never, I can't tell you. Definitely let it get stuck.

(Absolutely, absolutely... I don't know, I wouldn't say it's the language of an engagement application from that era...!

Because I thought you wouldn't know anyway, it's just a stab word.

"Let's count the sun and the moon for you and me."

That feels old in this world, and there will be no future to speak of. Even on the occasion of actually applying for an engagement, I thought...

(or it would be too inconsistent with my statement right now!!)

It hasn't been a month since we decided to go out with you.

Yet, yet!

I knew I could never say it!! I swear on my amulet!

"Hey, Ray."

He said it didn't say a lot.

"If so."

"You guys, you're so fucked up!

"Nice assist!," Astraia exclaimed in her heart.

I didn't mean to be a jerk, but that's the end of the story!

Now I thought I could eat, sneak in and enjoy drinking... etc., then my arm was pulled up.

"I'm leaving."

"I said I'm leaving... What about the banquet? Are you sure?"

"All right, Captain. Orders."

With that said, Ios says, "Thank you for the rest," and leaves the room.

"Just when I'm on my own"

"Did you not?

"... not like anything else"

It's just a little caught up if you think it'll cool you down.

Because of what Sufale had said extra things, he was also visible to have been noted.

Even Ios would realize that.

"But you can't call me Astraia over there."

……

I think that's a bad reason.

But it's a banquet. I like the lead, what's wrong with it.

"Well, let me call you Iosphorite too... hey, why are you stumbling on me"

Does he know what it's like to be a lover in good time the moment he first calls his real name?

I think if I did poorly, I wouldn't have heard it, but I seemed to have heard it for once around saying "surprised".

"I'm sorry, but, you know, I didn't think Astraia would say"

"... then I'll make it eos already"

"I'm sorry. I'm glad you called sometimes."

Sometimes?

How come you don't sound so happy when you say you're happy?

'Cause I like it when they call me Ios.

But Ios laughed as if he haunted him.

It's not like the time of Sphale, it's clearly illuminated, not blindfolded.

"... you don't seem to win"

"Yeah?"

"Nothing"

Astraia covered her face with her hands.

(Heart, can you do it in one piece?)

To a severely moving heart, oh, now I'm suppose to be alive.

"Thanks, Ios"

And as it was, Astreia jumped at Ios, arms around his neck and hugged him.

Suddenly, Ios also melted for a moment, but still held Astraia tight.
