To Be a Power in the Shadows!

It's been about three years since Shadow Garden was founded. Me and Alpha turned 13. And my sister Claire turned 15. It doesn't make any particular sense for the age of 13, but it makes a lot of sense for the age of 15. Yeah, the aristocrats are going to attend King's Capital school for three years when they're 15. My sister was a hop of expectations for the Baron Cagneau family. I mean, that was like a hop of expectations with my mother hanging out and having a farewell party or something.

That's fine, that's fine, but it was the day I left for Kingsville, and my sister disappeared. So, now the Baron Cagneau family is making a fuss.

"It was already like this when I walked into the room."

My father says in a dandy voice. Not a bad face either.

"There are no signs of contention, but the windows are ripped open from the outside. Neither Claire nor I noticed, that's pretty hands-on."

Daddy Dundee looks at the sky far away with his hands on the window frame. Looks like it would look good with whiskey or something on one hand.

Now if only I had hair......

"So?"

A frozen voice was called.

"Quite hands-on, so you can't help it, can you?

It's my mother.

"Well, that's not why, just stating the facts..."

My father answers with a cold sweat on his cheek.

The next moment,

"You bald yeeeeee!!!

"Hino, su, excuse me, excuse me!!

I'm the air, by the way. I'm not expected, but I don't even bother, I keep positions like that.

But I'm sorry I was a good person for my sister. The crime was at night, and I was training in an abandoned village, so there's nothing I can do.

I watched my father and mother twitch with a strange face, looked at the gap and went back to my room, hand in hand with my sister's disappeared and then rolled into bed.

And.

"You can come out."

"Yes."

The curtain swayed without sound at the same time as his voice, and one girl dressed in a black slimebody suit came in.

"Beta."

"Yes."

The same elf girl as Alpha. Alpha was blonde, but Beta has silver hair.

She's the third shadow garden member to follow me and Alpha with blue eyes like a cat. I said so much, but it keeps getting more and more because Alpha brings them in like they're throwing away cats to pick up.

"What about Alpha?

"I'm exploring the traces of Master Claire."

"You're acting fast, sister. Are you still alive?

"Probably."

"Can you help?

"It is possible... but we need the help of Master Shadow"

Oh, they call me Shadow about me. Because you're the Lord of Shadow Gardens, huffy.

"That's what Alpha said?

"Yes, given the danger of the hostages, he said we should be in full swing."

"Heh."

Alpha is quite strong already, to be honest. The fact that Alpha is asking for help can be seen as having quite a lot of strength.

"Don't let the blood roll..."

I instantly release the magic compressed into my palms, trembling the atmosphere.

It doesn't make any particular sense, but I love these performances.

Beta's surprised, too. 'That's right...' or something.

There have been no shortages in practice opponents lately with Alpha and Beta and Delta, but sometimes I want freshness, and most of all I want to play the shady prowess and it's just the right opportunity.

"It's been a long time since I've been serious..."

This is how I'm also getting used to creating a shady, powerful air.

Plus, the alpha and beta are getting pretty boiled down these days, so it's going to be exciting.

"The killer is still from the Diabolos denomination. That's probably the executive class too"

"An executive class... So, why did the congregation take your sister?

"I thought you suspected Master Claire of being a 'hero child'."

"Hmm, good guys..."

Like this.

Besides, I've been collecting materials and stuff like, "I still didn't make a mistake with your words..." or "A child of Diabolos a thousand years ago..." or "From this tablet there are traces of the Diabolos Order..." No, I don't know because I can't read the ancient script. I don't know much about Alpha either, it looks like it's in line, and I want a sense of impending truth about the Diabolos denomination, I'm sure it is, right?

"Look at this material. There is an Azito who is believed to have been exposed to Master Claire during the latest investigation we have gathered…"

Because Beta started arranging huge dossiers like that, but no, I don't know. It's more than half ancient, and I don't know what the numbers are. No, you guys are really good at making materials like that. It's totally beyond me in that area already.

When I overheard Beta's explanation, I took out the throwing knife and threw it on the map on the wall.

Cut.

Make a noise and pierce one point where the knife is.

"Right there."

"Here, is it? What the hell..."

"I have a sister there"

"But nothing here...... no way......!

Beta hurriedly fishes out the dossier feeling that she has just noticed.

No, yeah, I threw it right.

You're a good actor, aren't you, Beta? That's it, so there's a hidden egg somewhere I pointed, right?

"Based on the materials, it appears that Shadow has a hidden aside at the pointed point."

Here we go.

"But reading this vast amount of material in an instant, and deciphering it to a further hidden point… is a boulder"

"Not enough training, Beta"

"I will refine."

Nice, even though I know it's an act, it's a glitch. I'm holding my bump, Beta.

"I will tell Master Alpha as soon as possible. The showdown's tonight?

"Oh."

Beta left for a moment. You had sparkling eyes and stuff, I admire you. I felt it. Here's to acting academically.
