“Then, let’s finish here for today.”
“Thank you.”
The Director said and the magic lecture ended for the day.
The lectures continued even after the subjugation.
Even if it was magic or whatever, it wasn’t something that was easy to remember straight away.
No matter how interested in it I was, my intellect was only normal.
Well, if I had the Head Magician’s brain then I could probably remember it straight away.
“Will you be heading to the 3rd Knight Order today as well?”
“Yes. That’s the plan.”
“Is it fine for me to observe?”
“Don’t you have work to do?”
“It shouldn’t be a problem if I only go for a little while.”
The Director’s smile felt ominous, but was it alright?
I had a hunch that Intelligent Glasses-sama would drag him back to work.
The Head Magician had gone with me to the 3rd Knight Order before and at that time, Intelligent Glasses-sama came to drag him back.
The Head Magician was so absorbed in observing the training that he’d missed his meeting.
It wasn’t just Intelligent Glasses-sama, the mages also ran around the Royal Palace looking for the Head Magician.
I don’t know if it would be like that today as well but I’ll tell someone to send word to Intelligent Glasses-sama about where we’re going.
It’d make it easier for him to come and collect the Head Magician.
“Then let’s go.”
“Okay.”
I nodded at the Head Magician, who was grinning and ready to leave, and left the room.
I caught the Mage, who had passed us on our way, and told him I am going to the 3rdKnight Order with the Head Magician. He said, “I will inform the Deputy Head Magician” as if he knew what to do.
That person was probably involved in the Head Magician’s search party.
The Head Magician spoke about magic on the way to the 3rd Knight Order.
He didn’t talk about the magic I had learnt today.
He talked about the 【Saint】technique that I had used during the subjugation.
There were many things that I didn’t know about the 【Saint】technique.
The same went for the Head Magician and, after we had returned from the subjugation, he had asked me many times about what the 【Saint】technique was.
We both agreed that it was a 【Saint】technique because of what it had done.
That much was fine, but we still didn’t know how else I could invoke it.
That was obvious since I, the person who had cast it, didn’t even know.
Even though I cast it in the West Forest, I didn’t know what I did to activate that golden magic.
Magic had suddenly overflowed from within me and activated.
I tried to remember if I had done anything special at that time, but nothing came to mind.
It happened suddenly and during a critical time.
I noticed that it was noisy in the front while I was walking and talking with the Head Magician.
I walked to a portion of the corridor that didn’t have walls and looked out into one of the Royal Palace courtyards.
I wonder what’s happening.
I looked at the Head Magician and he also looked puzzled.
“I wonder what happened.”
“I’m not sure. It’s on the way, so why don’t we check it out?”
The number of civil officials and maids increased as we approached the location.
Everyone gathered around because they noticed the uproar, didn’t they?
A lot of people passed through this courtyard, so it was easy for them to gather around.
I couldn’t hear what people were saying because they were whispering to each other.
I heard a racket at first and then I understood that a woman and man were arguing when I got closer.
Is it a lover’s quarrel?
Arguing in this kind of place, they’d definitely become gossip material for the maids.
There were a lot of people in the Royal Palace who liked to gossip; probably because they didn’t have entertainment like TV or magazines.
A lover’s quarrel was the easiest topic to gossip about.
“Enough!”
“But, Your Highness……”
I slipped past the people that had gathered around and heard a familiar voice.
Huh? This voice……
There was a man and woman arguing and the woman sounded like someone I knew.
I sped up and then saw the pair who were arguing.
I knew it, it’s Liz.
“It’s not in her best interest if things continue as they have. Please reconsider.”
“You’re saying this is in her best interest, but is that true?”
“What is that supposed to mean?”
“I heard that you’re leading the group that’s ostracising Aira.”
“…… What are you talking about?”
They were talking about something disturbing.
People had gathered around them, but they all watched from a distance.
That was because of that.
The one arguing with Liz, was the red-haired Crown Prince, whom I’ve seen before.
Yeah, no one wants to get dragged into the prince’s argument.
Even if they were curious.
I noticed that the Crown Prince wasn’t the only one with Liz.
They’re probably his followers.
There were several men that I recognised besides the Crown Prince. They were all standing still behind him.
The girl from the same country as me, whom I hadn’t seen for a year, was standing beside the Crown Prince.
It’s Aira-chan.
I was relieved to see that she hadn’t changed much since the last time I saw her.
It looks like she’s eating properly.
I’m glad. That’s good.
I can tell she’s being treated well from the cute pink dress she’s wearing.
However, she didn’t look so well.
She was looking between the Crown Prince and Liz with a worried expression on her face.
The conversation continued as I was observing Aira-chan, but there was something missing about with their conversation.
I heard from Liz that the Crown Prince thought that Liz instigated the way the young ladies acted towards Aira-chan.
For example, accosting her, giving her candid advice and on top of all that destroying her textbooks and other equipment.
No, Liz tried to stop them.
Because of that, we talked about how it wasn’t just the young ladies who needed to change but Aira-chan too, or else nothing would improve…..
I remembered that Liz was angry that she couldn’t talk with Aira-chan because the Crown Prince got in the way.
“Perhaps, you did that out of jealousy……”
“Jealousy?”
“That’s right. You’re my fiancée. You didn’t like how I’m always with Aira.”
“Phew. Why didn’t you accept my proposal, when you’ve reached such a conclusion? The gentlemen behind you as well. Is it not obvious that it would become a problem if they always spend time with someone that isn’t their fiancée?”
“Certainly. But, it’s my responsibility to oversee the 【Saint Summoning Ceremony】. We summoned her for our own convenience, so I must protect Aira from harm. It’s not like I have anything to be guilty about.”
“…… Aira-sama wasn’t the only one summoned, you know? You’re not doing anything about the other person.”
“Other person? You’re talking about the woman from the rumours? That isn’t the 【Saint】, is it?”
……。
