Lucille was holding a piece of paper in her little hand.

Apparently there was a letter with a message from Lucille and my master, Lucy.

I saw it seriously.

"To my dear apprentice Solon."

The lettering on the parchment was a flowing masterpiece and very beautiful.

When I saw Lucy's letters, I missed her.

When Lucy always gave me the assignment, she wrote this beautiful letter and gave it to me.

Lucy was a magical genius, a beauty, and showed a high talent for doing anything else.

Though my personality isn't just a little honest, I didn't even hate my master for that.

Lucy is a prisoner now.

At the hands of Ensign Claire, he is being held under house arrest in military facilities as a rebel.

Whatever. But I want to help Lucy out.

And a message from Lucy said how to help Lucy out.

"Don't force yourself to try to help me!

That was the first word in the letter.

Because it's more important than anything that Solon is safe, Lucy says.

"But I'm sure even if you say so, Solon will try to help me out"

That's what the letter said.

It was like a letter in my eyes that Lucy would talk to me.

First, Lucy's letter had the premise that she could no longer be in the Empire than Lucy's arrest as a renegade.

Naturally, it was a heavy story for me.

Lucy can't be a magic school professor anymore, or live in my mansion.

That's why Lucy says she will be displaced to neighboring Alemanian Farren Republic.

Alemania Farren has a friend who will hide about Lucy.

But in order to do that, we need a way to escape to the enemy Alemania Farren.

That's where I'll come in handy.

Me and my collaborator's merchant Perse are dealing in large quantities with other countries, so you just have to get Lucy into the luggage.

It was also possible to exchange commodities with Alemania Farren if they were sandwiched between the countries of the neutral zone.

And then we need to get Lucy out of the military facility, but it didn't say how.

That's natural, because you can't possibly know beforehand when you're going to be threatened by anyone.

So we need to do something there.

I looked straight at Lucille.

The little red-haired girl, who looked just like Lucy, stared back at me without a look on her face.

"I wonder if Lucille will help us rescue Dr. Lucy."

"Naturally. That's what you are?

"Because Dr. Lucy is my important master. No matter how dangerous it is, I'm gonna go help Lucy."

"Yes."

"I wonder if Lucille already has all the facts."

"I know Lucy was captured by the military. And that Lucy lives in your mansion, and that Lucy is flirting with you."

flirting, Lucille pronounced the word very flat.

No, I'm not flirting...

"Yes, yes. Lucy was a student at school. She said she was" stroking her hair, hugging her, knee pillows "by Solon.

Phyllia scratches her mouth with pleasure from the side.

I hope you don't say something that's going to be misunderstood, and when I looked at Philia, Philia let her eyes glow naughtily.

Lucille, on the other hand, was staring at me with red eyes.

"I wanted to see you once"

"Lucille told me? Oh, I guess it's because he's a brother."

I wanted to meet Lucille, who would be my own sister's apprentice, once too.

But Lucy didn't want me and Lucille to see each other for a reason.

What was the reason for that?

"Because I wanted to know what kind of person that Lucy would forgive her heart"

Nothing. I'm a mediocre magic swordsman.

"But Lucy chose you as her apprentice. That's strange. I don't feel anything special about you even if I try to meet you like this"

That would be so.

I myself feel like there's nothing special about me, because I don't really know why I was chosen as a genius Lucy's apprentice.

Lucy told me I had talent, but at least I didn't have any magic talent.

Philia was looking at Lucille, but eventually she almost smiled.

"Solon is someone special. For me and Lucy. I'm sure Lucille will find out."

"... is that right"

"Hey, Solon. Why don't you call Lucille to our mansion?

"Fine, but why?

"Lucille helps me help Lucy, and what I know best about that red book of magic. I'm sure if I were there, you'd help me and Solon."

"If you want to talk to Lucille, I think you can do it on this occasion..."

"You should always be close, right? Let Lucille live in the mansion too."

I was surprised.

Let Lucille live in my mansion for as long as I've known her, says Philia.

There are a lot of girls staying in my mansion.

But that was either someone I trusted, like Sophia or Clarice, or a kid like Arte and Lylene Remilia who had nowhere else to go.

Lucille is neither of them.

"There's another reason to ask Lucille to come to the Mansion."

"Is it because Master Philia wants to get along with Lucille?

"How did you know!?

"As much as Philia thinks, it's a prospect for me."

For Philia, Lucille is the first person her age might make friends with.

With that in mind, I wasn't going to object to letting Lucille live in the Mansion either.

There was also a chance that Lucille would be in some danger to herself than Lucille was arrested as a traitor.

Calling me to my mansion with full security isn't bad, either, in the sense of making Lucille's body safe.

The room is just empty with Lucy gone.

It just depends on Lucille's will, too.

When we looked at Lucille, Lucille shook her head vertically, not surprisingly.

"Okay. I'm going to your mansion."

"Are you sure?

"... because I need to identify who you and Your Highness are"

That said, Lucille wears red hair up.

I couldn't read any expression from those crimson eyes.
