5. Continued Will of Fire – 01

“… Uh, what kind of funny joke is that? Or is it like a story from a novel you read?”

A few days after that, after failing to overcome Cirilla’s persistent questioning and finally revealing all of her truth, those were the first words she uttered to me.

And to me, Cirilla’s reaction was something truly reprehensible.

In the end, there was only one punishment for unbelievers who did not have faith in history.

f*ck!

“Evil! What is it! Why are you hitting me!”

“sh*t, what kind of joke is that? Do you think I’m free enough to joke with you about something like this? Show me what I really want to joke about?”

“… No.”

Cirilla gets quiet when she shakes her fist to mean that next time she can hit the meteor on the top of her head instead of a blow to the forehead.

It was truly unfortunate. Originally, I am an extremely democratic and peaceful human being who can live without the law, but why on earth does the environment around me make it impossible for me to escape without resorting to violence?

With this in mind, when will the day come when the chief of the ninja village breaks the chain of hatred he so longed for? It really couldn’t have been more unfortunate.

“But those words are completely unbelievable to a sane person. What is that, Bocchan is actually a future person who knows what will happen in the future? It’s similar, and that disgustingly pretty older sister is an angel, and that snarky little girl is actually the princess of the empire?”

“In addition, why did you forget the fact that you are planning to become the Skylord, the owner of Sky Tower, one of the Seven Magic Towers of the Empire?”

“… It’s embarrassing to even say that with my own mouth. So, how the hell are you supposed to believe that? No, isn’t the person who believes that it is right rather insane?”

“… Hmm.”

After listening to it, I think there is some truth in Cirilla’s words.

If you look at the current situation from Cirilla’s point of view, wouldn’t it be a bit similar to the way her cousin presents her student ID card saying that she has entered Seoul National University on a holiday, and her father shows her Seoul National University student ID card, her mother shows her Yale student ID card, and her grandmother shows her Harvard student ID card?

However, if the current situation of Cirilla is different from that of SNS, it must be that I have conclusive evidence to convince her Cirilla in one shot.

“Say.”

“Yes.”

“Expand your wings.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Flutter-

Six wings spread from Sei’s back as soon as the words fell. Pure white wings overflowing with sacredness just by looking at them, with a faint golden sheen as if they were CG-processed.

Even if they were heavily armed with faith in the Buddha or Baby Bodhisattva, at this moment, it could not have been a sacred sight to the point of putting their hands together and shouting Amen without realizing it.

“Gee, real wings. That, and even the divine power of the heavenly gods. Sei’s older sister is her older sister… Were you really an Elyos?”

Cirilla staring at Sei’s face and wings alternately with her mouth wide open as if she couldn’t believe this situation at all.

“Then does this look like chicken or duck hair to you?”

As I said that, I gently caressed Sei’s wide open wings.

“Oh.”

It was very soft. It’s hard to describe in words, it’s like science. How well would you sleep if you gathered Sei’s feathers together to make a bed and lie on it…

“… He, could you please refrain from touching the wings? It’s a bit sensitive for me.”

“Why, sister? Maybe he has a feeling in his wings?”

Perfect!

“Evil! I hit you again! That’s where I was right before!”

“You really don’t have the slightest bit of sensitivity and empathy for others. Please reflect.”

If you lack sensitivity to others to this extent, wouldn’t it be a good match with the grand princess who can be said to be synonymous with sociopaths?

If Cirilla had lived in Korea, he might have already been taken away by the police for harassing others in a place like Metaverse.

“Anyway, I believe that this would have been sufficient physical evidence for my words. Just in case, does anyone have any questions?”

“… Uh, me I have questions.”

Flash.

There is always one like that wherever you go. A rude guy who stays quiet throughout class and then raises his hand before the teacher finishes class by saying he has a question.

With no shame, no common sense, and, crucially, no mother and father, Yurika was the crystal of the three innocence.

“What is Elyos, and what do you mean by Wisdom? I don’t understand what the master is talking about.”

As expected, it seems that he did not understand well what we were talking about because he was extremely lacking in common sense because he was not well educated at a young age.

“Just start by saying what you understand. Because it will be faster.”

“… Uh, well That Sei was actually an angel with wings?”

It’s very difficult to express the fact that you don’t understand anything in fact.

“I’m too lazy to explain, so feel free to ask Seina Cirilla later. When I surprise you with a question later, if you don’t answer properly, be prepared for a bad night.”

“Wow, that’s too much.”

Actually, I’m not saying this in anticipation of the learning ability of a little kid. I just wanted to get a justification for beating Yurika legally.

“Aside from Yurika, Cirilla, you must have already realized what I wanted to say. And what I expect from you.”

To my words, Cirilla sighs softly and answers.

“I know. So to sum it up, you mean you want to borrow my power, who might become the future skylord.”

“I am very sorry to have dragged you into this way. So I want to give you one last chance to choose.”

“A chance to choose?”

Cirilla looks at me with a blank expression for some reason. And I gently nod her head toward her like that.

“You were just my exclusive lady-in-waiting, an ordinary person who had lived an extremely normal life until now. I can’t help it because I’ve been swept up in fate for a long time, but you still have a chance to escape. So, if you want, quit being my exclusive maid and be free… “

“I don’t like it.”

“… I’m not done talking yet.”

Cirilla cut off my words in the middle even though I wasn’t completely finished.

“What the boy is going to say is obvious. In the future, all sorts of incidents will happen around you, but if you don’t want to get caught up in it, you’re saying to get away from it and go blind, right?”

Saying that, Cirilla pouted her own mouth, as if she really didn’t like something in her.

“That’s okay? I don’t know, but how hard it is to find a job in the world these days. But do you think it would be easy to find a job with the same conditions as a lady-in-waiting for the grand duke’s family anywhere in the world?”

“… And, the madam asked me before she died. Since it seems that he will not be able to watch the future of the young master, ask me to stand by the young master’s side instead. Always, always, until the last moment, I ask you to be with the young master.”

“It is absurd to go on a fuss after all the madam has done for me. Crucially, if it weren’t for me, where else could a crazy woman take care of the master? It’s because you don’t know, isn’t this also secretly heavy labor?”

Perhaps the ‘madam’ that Cirilla is referring to here must be Reiner’s mother, not the Grand Duchess.

“You might regret it later.”

“Okay. Regrets are already in full swing even now.”

In Cirilla’s grumbling words, even though she lacked a lot in her arrogance, at the same time, her hatred towards me was clearly visible.

And that was the time.

[Shared a big secret with Sistine El Hyades!]

[Sistina El Hyades confirms the strong bond with you once again.]

[The relationship with Sistine El Hyades increases!]

[Currently confirmed connection with Sistine El Hyades is 7. When her bond reaches 10, a ‘very special reward’ will be given to you.]

‘Bonding level increased?’

In an instant, her eyeballs turned wide. She only revealed one secret she had been hiding, but her relationship rate increased?

It was quite a surprise, but even so, I had no intention of making a fuss to increase the relationship by turning my eyes to the ‘very special reward’.

‘In order to get a 10 bond, I had to have a couple relationship, maybe?’

Of course, it must mean that we should not be in a married couple relationship like the Grand Duchess and I, but rather bite and suck each other in a public place like a pair of slugs.

“So, what am I supposed to do? Can I go to the Sky Tower and buy a few related magic books?”

“There is no need to do that. Because the best magic instructor is right next to you.”

As I said that, I looked at Sei blankly, and Sei also nodded her head implicitly.

“The human magic system is not my specialty, but I think I can easily teach a beginner the basics.”

“The deadline is one year. You know i have a lot of money I won’t spare any necessary expenses for magic research, so do whatever you want to do.”

When she said that with a smirk, Yurika also raised her own right hand, probably thinking that she couldn’t be alienated like this.

“Then what can I do? Can I learn magic together with Cirilla-sama?”

“Magic? You?”

As far as I know, the future princess, Eurica del Cartesia, also didn’t have any talent for magic. No, it would be more accurate to say that those who inherited the blood of the imperial family ‘there is no need’ to have such talent.

The royal families of the Cartesian Empire were not simply lucky or able to build the empire with a go-stop. In their lineage, there is potential for a powerful unique ability that far surpasses the power of most humans.

As such, those who inherited the blood of the imperial family did not have any talents related to martial arts or magic.

Because martial arts and magic are, after all, powers devised to overcome human limitations with human power, but the imperial family are beings that have already easily surpassed human limits.

Well, even if he has surpassed human limits, since his basic base is human, it is not impossible to learn martial arts or magic. It would be more productive to lie down in the corner of the room and watch YouTube at that time.

However, I was too lazy to explain all these details to Yurika, so I expressed everything in one word.

“I can’t because you’re a dick.”
