25 Lesson 25: And Conspiracy Opens The Curtain
The day came for an exhibition party of magic props sponsored by the Ministry of Magic. Regardless of the demonic props I could hold, I was really short of manpower to carry Airdra, and I was supposed to call people from the Royal Palace.
What... I wonder why they're mixed up in the Ministry of Magic. You don't usually lean away from the palace. No, I assume it's natural for you to prepare?
"Dear Anis, there's a wrinkle between your eyebrows."
The wrinkles between the deeply carved eyebrows are unlikely to return even when Uffi points them out. Honestly, I don't like the magic ministry guys touching my magic props. It's going to be deliberately destroyed and obfuscated.
It cannot be said that magic props differ in quality from magic to magic, depending on the skill of the user. Standards are only troublesome when mass production is not uniform.
And they say that the Ministry of Magic doesn't have a nose. Demonic props are inferior to magic. They can't reflect the skill of the user.
Though I've touched the magic, I'm not aiming to spread it the same way I do! It's more important that anyone can use it easily!
When it comes to magic props that can be used as a daily necessity, if you keep asking me what it's like to use spiritual stones for something like this, I can bounce off the rage accumulated in the accumulation.
I usually avoid it because it's a pain in the ass for them. That doesn't mean the frustration disappears. My roaring voice leaks out unexpectedly.
"Princess Anisphere. Are you sure that's all for the exhibition today?
"... checking the inventory is ok. Instructions are later available for each magic prop. Look first for precautions. If you try to use it in a way other than the specifications, you cannot be held responsible. Then be sure to follow the instructions of the samurai I requested. If anything happens, I'll be in trouble during the exhibition."
If I gave him the thick instructions with an overview, the man from the Ministry of Magic gave me a convulsive grin. You want me to read this? That's just the look on your face. That would be the job, but I'm not complaining because I worked this one too. You must have asked me out in the first place.
... No, I shouldn't. This attitude is not good. What are we going to do if we sell a fight from here before something starts? The purpose of this meeting is to bring the exhibition party to an end. Smile here and be honest!
"Ask me or Uffi if you need anything. I will explain it sincerely and clearly."
"Hih......!
What the hell? Person responsible for staying tuned and returning to site command as soon as possible. I feel the smile that was floating back to the top of the Buddha again. I can't solve my current reaction when I said I handled it with a smile on my face.
"... Dear Anis, there was now a killer seeping out of my smile"
Oh, yeah.
"He said it would be nice if there wasn't a wave of wind on his own..."
Yufi sighed as if she were frightened. That's why you handled it with a smile! It's bad over there that scares me! Me, not bad!
I have to go to the royal palace because I have to check on myself in the royal palace, thinking about the waste of such a child. Ilaria's leaving today, so we're going to have people out of the royal palace.
At a time like this, I don't think it would be convenient to spin it in small numbers from time to time. The title is too heavy. I just want to throw it away. Shall I hit your father with a paper plane that says right to inherit the throne? Oh, no. If they find me because I have a mother, they will kill me.
"Russ boss is still my mother......!
"What are you talking about, I'm coming"
I snorted reluctantly, prompted by Ufi, who said away in a sigh.
Then Ilaria, you're coming.
"Yes, please be careful"
'Cause if anything happens, you can skip me.'
"Yes."
If it's as far away as the Royal Palace, there's something you can use in the prototype's demonic props. I really want to achieve long-range communication. I have no idea how to make a phone call or anything like that on a boulder, and I hope I get some ideas flashing.
Ha, it's a hassle, but do you want to go? Feeling like something heavy accumulated in my stomach, I headed with Yufi to the royal palace.
The party venue for the exhibition, prepared by the Ministry of Magic, is one of the halls that is also used in royal palace feasts, etc. There are several halls in the Royal Palace that can be used to coincide with the event, of which the format has been determined and the venue has been changed by the event.
This time, it's the lowest formatted hall because it's not that big. Still a hall on royal palace grounds. The decoration is made of first-class products, and given its size, it could be said to be gorgeous enough. Then the participants must be dressed as they deserve.
"Heavy dress, long hem. Out of the way."
"Dear Anis..."
Polished by the royal palace samurai, she complains about the dress she has recently had more chance to wear with something. Truth is, dresses are heavy and painful. Oh, no. Good one-piece dress for everyday knight clothing motifs. Wouldn't it look like that if I wore a medal or something?

Though maybe she'll smile and get rejected by Ilia or her mother. Still, I won't give up on taking off my tough dress...!
"Princess Anisphere, Dear Uphilia. I'm ready. Come to the venue."
The samurai bows her head respectfully and tells her. The exhibition hall for the magic props has already been set up, and later it will be the flow for me to enter the venue and give a description of the magic props.
This time the eyeball is Airdra. Well, you want to hear what I made out of plenty of dragon material.
To put it bluntly, this is a presentation. I just don't think I'll get consent because the values are different where I presented them. I guess they're after me to get the bollocks out anyway.
"... it's okay, Dear Anis"
"Ufi?"
"Because I know."
As I perceived in my heart, I forget myself unexpectedly by the words of Yufi conveyed with a grin. The stained words are strangely embarrassing and my stomach tickles. I was hit, I thought it was natural and my gait was faster.
That one is cunning. But that's good. I hope someone understands. Someone will find value beside me. That's all I'm happy about. So fine.
Nature and sight gather in the venue. Airdra was resting on the stage where I headed. Go up to the altar with Uffi and give him a compliment.
"Ladies and gentlemen, be in a good mood. We are very pleased to have this event open today. Today is a time to deepen our understanding of the inventions of magic, and it is up to us to be brave."
When I raise my head and then say hello, my reactions vary. There's a lot to see as doing the price trail as I imagined. Surprisingly, there were a few people eager to hear this story.
Well, what is it? I can't think of any reason why I could turn that gaze on you. I'm just a little surprised by the unexpected, but I'll keep explaining.
"First of all, I think you're wondering, this is Airdra, the flying magic prop I developed. This one is made of dragon material and has a hull that can withstand the propulsion and its propulsion utilizing the dragon's exhalation mechanism. This one was produced with the aim of limiting performance, but we are also working on a concept of mass production based on the design of this prototype."
Keep breathing and continue explaining. Airdra and the purpose for which flying magic props are used, the economic benefits that can be expected from the spread of flying magic props, the revolution in itineraries, etc.
The reaction of listeners varies again. I keep watching such an audience, but I keep going until I separate the explanation.
"… that's all about flying magic props"
Where I divided the explanation, Uffi comes forward. That's what I was planning.
If I remain a little confused, Uffi opens his tease with a grace.
"I'm Uphilia Magenta, and I'm your assistant to Princess Anisphere. This time, I am very pleased that the people of the Ministry of Magic have been given the opportunity to open such a place and talk about a promising future through magic. As Princess Anisphere explained, we are concerned that some people in the Ministry of Magic have doubts that this invention is a blasphemy to the Spirit and God."
Hey!? Yufi, are you going to cut in there!? Look, there are a bunch of people who changed their complexion to see it.
"Certainly Princess Anisphere's idea doesn't exist. It may seem like a bold, in other words incomprehensible reason to the rest of us. But if I'm going to tell you this from someone I've seen close to me, I'd like to tell you that magic is a sign of respect for them that's different from spiritual beliefs and theology."
Yuffi just talks pale. It just draws attention to its appearance. I can't help but notice.
"Knowing the world, knowing reason, knowing magic, all of which go hand in hand, magic is born. Magic is also equal to academia and never makes faith or tradition contemptible. Rather, it was born with the tradition and wisdom that we have inherited, and I wonder if my kingdom should be proud that the gift of Princess Anisphere was born in this world."
No, you don't have to be proud, I thought, but you read the air with me. Tighten your expression and stretch your spine. For a moment, I felt Yufi smiling at me with a gaze. Although I'm not sure because it was a moment.
"Please don't turn down the path of learning. All with the Spirit, the will of God and your name. I would like to share with you that Princess Anisphere was not gifted with the protection of the Spirit, but that the Spirit and God recognized her talent. What happened in our country, starting with the covenant we had with the Spirit, and how much time has passed since then? I think. Now is the time for us to walk with change. With the foundations we have walked so far, we want to work with you towards the future. I just hope today will be the first step on that good day"
Yuffi smiles and cuts the words. At the same time a quiet applause echoes. And the sound of the applause gradually increased, and little by little the sound of the applause wrapped around the venue.
... No, Yufi is amazing. I guess Uffi is sincerely saying what he's saying right now. That's why I had something to sound like. I don't think I can do it a little bit.
If I stared at Yufi, I smiled softly as if you noticed my gaze. I knew it was cunning, I thought. That's why I'm proud of where Uffi is now next to me. Because it seemed like it was worth it for me just to have her next door.
(True, Yufi is cunning...... will I try too)
After Yufi's speech, I gave a presentation of the magic props I had brought in, and it ended well. Next, it was a meeting meal, and I actually got zero laughter when I saw the hot water out of the pot and the servings I was using.
I want you to think it would be useful. It's gonna be my feat. You know, I honestly didn't ask for that. It would be nice if the person who actually used it could make the job easier or something like that.
The air in the venue was always calm. To me too, the Ministry of Magic, it also brought practitioners face to face.
"Princess Anisphere, you have a good assistant."
"Yeah, I don't think so much."
"Ha! What do you say? The throne has been restored. You're too modest."
"Ha ha..."
That's why you're saying you don't want to be a king!? Stick a smile in your mouth.
"I would be happy to see such a sight. Demonic props spread as a convenient tool to enrich people's lives. And that's what I really am."
"Is there no greed or is there... After all, Princess Anisphere is an interesting person."
I'm interested in bickering, but honestly I want you to stay away for a moment. I'm worried about Yufi. So cut up the story and look for Yufi.
I kind of smile when I realize that there's not enough people at Uffi's to compare to me. After all, there are people who come together.
I managed to get close enough to take Yufi, but my steps were stopped. Because someone came forward to block the path.
"Princess Anisphere, if you like, say hello"
"... uh, what about you?
Honestly, I thought it was intrusive, but I smile without even being able to scorn it. That's like I've seen it somewhere. A young man my age, or younger. I get the impression that it looks nervous.
On silver hair with habits, a young man with purple eyes with demonic colors smiles and offers his hand to me. I don't get to see people face to face, so if I remember, I can remember the name right away, but I don't know.
The young man who entered before me smiled and gave me a courtesy to name his name. So I finally understood who he was.
My name is Mauritz Chartreuse.
"Oh, the son of the Secretary of Magic?
"Yes, the Secretary of Magic is my father."
He hates me fur. Son of the Secretary of Magic.... Oh, I remember. I thought it was the face I saw somewhere. It's one of Al-Kun's surroundings. So this kid is one of those things that got Raini distracted?
I try to smile so that I don't show it on my face while I don't really like it and want to talk about it.
"Thank you very much to Princess Anisphere. And I apologize for the inconvenience."
"Am I what? I don't have any direct contact with you."
"It's about Master Uphilia. My father scolded me for working so hard..."
"Ha..."
I smile but I'm not sure what you're thinking. I mean, I can't see the heart. I can't grasp the bottom of my belly. I'm not sure how I see Yufi, though I say it in my mouth. Because I don't feel sincere about words.
"I was also the one who suggested this occasion. I managed to think of it as an opportunity to regain my honor. I hope you can remember my name."
"... you? May I ask why? Weren't you sincere with Al... Algardo?
I didn't know you were the son of the Secretary of the Ministry of Magic if you wondered who planned it. This was an unexpected story, to be honest. Besides, he was originally on Al-Kun's side. I don't see any motive.
"Yep. But I also changed my mind… I wanted to hear it from the princess herself who developed the magic props that were turning away."
"You want to change your mind, you want me to change my saddle?
"No, that's not true. Today is a fixed day. That's what I'm telling my father."
I can't eat anything. I don't want to deal with them because my sincerity is hard to grasp. Besides, I want to rendezvous with Uffi, but I'm getting a substantial foothold, so I'm getting annoyed. Let's just cut to the chase and get some free time here.
"Really? I hope you will keep an eye on my actions."
"Oh, Princess Anisphere. If you don't mind giving me a lecture on magic props."
"That's another chance"
"That would be now. Could you please?"
Don't eat it down long enough, perseverance. I couldn't help but think of wrinkles between my eyebrows, so I could concentrate on my facial expressions. I don't know, I even feel like I want to keep Yufi and me apart when I can eat this far down.
"There are other people's eyes. Please refrain. I've already finished my lecture tonight.
"Do something there..."
Perseverance! Let's break up the conversation and head to Uffi's. I don't know why you suddenly snuck up on me, but I don't have time to deal with them.
It was when I said no again and tried to give my heels back.
- Kiin, and. The high noise echoed from afar.
I open my eyes to the sound that everyone in the venue has heard. I know this sound. You can't possibly know. Because this was developed by me.
"Ilia!?"
It's an emergency alert I gave to Ilia. I will immediately begin to act on the alarm sound, which has never been used until this day. But the movement was blocked.
"What's that noise now! Gather the people from the venue! Don't let him out!
Mauritz, who was beside him, roughs up his voice and gives instructions. Those who were whispering to each other about what noise would gather together in one place, guided by those who gathered men according to Mauritz's instructions.
I tried to run against the flow and Mauritz grabbed me by the arm.
"Where are you going, Princess Anisphere!
"Please let me go! I have to go!
"- Who is it! Who's here? Princess Anisphere is disturbed! Retain!"
Ha!? Who says you're upset!? Yeah, I might know!
"Out of the way ah!!"
"Huh!?"
Grab the arm that was being grabbed and slap it with your back throw as you go. Throw away a light Mauritz compared to a knight who is working out or something and shake his arm off.
I try to keep going to the exit, but I zero tongue when I see the knights gathering to block the way already.
Tap up the dress and remove Mana Blade from the holder that had been planted in the flatulence to cleave the dress. Tie the ends of that torn dress together, and I rush out with all my might without even worrying about my legs getting dewy. Headed for, the window to the venue.
"Gee ho......! What are you doing! Will you stop Princess Anisphere!!"
Mauritz's anger echoes and the knights move out confused. Really, he's the only one who can get in the way!?
"A, Princess Anisphere!? Where are you going!!"
"Out of the way! Retreat!"
Some knights have embarked on trying to stop me from moving, but not as intransigent as Mauritz. Paying for a perplexed, stretched arm, as it were, I stuck my body reinforced and crossed my arm towards the window.
Keep breaking through the window and your body will be thrown out into the universe. There is some height to the ground, good and fractured as long as it lands, bad beatings can even kill you.
"Dear Anis!
"!? Yuffi!?"
Yufi jumped in, throwing herself out there in the same way. You're using magic, you can catch me and hold me at a faster drop rate than I do.
Yuffi's face just says he doesn't want to be angry, and he yells at me as he catches me.
"When you're impotent, at least give me a hand!
"Huh, questions later! Uffi, fly me to the outhouse! Let me land!?"
Yufi nods as she hugs me hard. Calling to the Spirit of the Wind, our bodies fly toward the outhouse like bullets. As the ground moves towards momentum, the membrane of wind unfolded by Uffi acts as a cushion, making sure to jump several times and we come back to the earth.
Yuffi stays on his knees and I get up by killing the shock as I get out of Yuffi's arm and roll. If I looked up, the outhouse was already at the end of my eyes and nose.
"... what's this all about?
So what I saw was a sight to doubt my eyes, to be honest.
Raini, who is dropping without force, is bleeding heavily or the smell of blood creeping up his nose. Ilia is holding Raini tight like that. There is no stopping place from that eye, and the tears become zero. That Ilia is crying. Is she wounded, too? It's lame.
"… answer"
And the other one.
illuminate the person as the light of the moon, hidden in the clouds, poured down. It was those eyes that stood out above all else. A dubious "red iris" that shines in the dark at night.
And his upper body, which he opened until he showed his chest, is embedded with a "demon stone" rooting in his chest.
"... sister"
There, my brother Algardo Bona Palettia stood quietly.
