The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady

49 Episode 48: What Seeks Magic (Part I)



An invitation to a tea party that reached me through Ufi. If I sent out a reply stating that I would participate in the tea party, I would return immediately with a reply specifying a detailed date, time and place.

If it's a tea party on a boulder, I have to dress up pretty good, too. For this reason, you will travel by carriage. Ilia is leaving a message this time, with Yufi and Raini. And the carriage led us to a corner lined with aristocratic mansions.

It's also a place I visited when I disturbed Count Sprout's house. If the carriage stops at one of the houses, the gatekeeper, who had refrained at the entrance to the mansion, bows his head respectfully.

"I've been waiting for you. Princess Anisphere, Lady Duke of Uphilia, Lady Baron Raini"

"Yes, thank you."

"I will show you to your daughter. Please wait while the butler arrives."

"Okay."

Once again, the gatekeeper returns to the gate with his respects. If you think you've had any conversation with another gatekeeper you were packing inside, one of them heads inside the mansion.

Waiting to see if he'd gone to get a butler to guide him, Raini was shaking his shoulder in a restless manner.

"What's going on? Raini."

"Yes, no. I knew I wasn't used to being called a baroness..."

"I'm pretty sure you're a lady even if you're a samurai. Look, be grand."

With his hands on his shoulders and encouraging Raini, Yufi laughs strangely with his hands on his mouth. What a peaceful time to wait, a man in butler's clothes comes this way.

When the butler comes before us, he thanks us deeply and then raises his face.

"Thank you for waiting. Welcome to the Viscount Nebles family. I'll show you to your daughter."

"Please."

"This way, please."

This time, we were invited by Miss Halfis of the Viscount of Nebles. I mean Yufi and Raini's alumni, but they didn't have that much contact. Well, I wonder what the hell kind of kid he is.

It was Salon who was guided by the butler. One girl sat and waited at a circle table set in the center of it. When the girl notices that we have entered the room, she takes a seat and walks over here.

"I'll catch your eye first, Her Royal Highness Princess Anisphere. My name is Halphis Nebles. It is a great honor to have you here today."

"Nice to meet you, Miss Halfis. It's Anisphere Win Palettia. I was looking forward to seeing you at the tea party this time."

Carefully bowed her head, Miss Halfis is tied up with slightly brighter brown hair and dressed in a dress that is not overly flashy. Is it the "chairman of the committee" from what I have seen in my previous life? If it's glasses, it looks like it.

He shook my hand in a manner I feared if I asked him to shake it. At the end of my greeting with me, I also turn my gaze to Yufi and Raini, who were holding back behind me.

"Dear Uphilia, and Mr. Raini. We're out of time."

"No, it sounds like a breath disaster, above all. Halphis."

"We're out of time…"

Exchange greetings with Halfis in a contrasting attitude: Raini, who is nervously solidified with natural Ufi. Miss Halfis blinks her eyes just a little, then coughs them up and then urges us to take a seat.

A maid from the Viscount Navles brought us tea and sweets if we took our seats. Moisten your throat with tea first. Yeah, I guess that's where the flavor is.

"Again, thank you for visiting my house this time"

"No, because I thought this was a good opportunity.... but can I ask? I heard that neither Yufi nor Raini have much contact with you."

"Right. I won't deny that. So I was thinking about saying no."

Only a few words before Miss Halfis nodded small. Then he looks up like he decided to after wandering his gaze backwards somewhere.

"When you were at the College of Aristocrats, it was difficult for you to get too close..."

"I've heard some stories, but what was it like in college Yufi and Raini? I hear it's hard to lean on."

"Master Uphilia, it's not like they're going to do anything about it. If you threw me a question, you would have answered it. Sometimes there were a lot of people around me, but I admit I was under pressure because I still performed well and acted brilliantly on my feet. Furthermore, I am the daughter of the Viscount family. It was courageous of those who were not factions of the Duke of Magenta to speak up."

I guess it feels like it's because it's scary for a low-status person who is barely a faction to talk to Ufi. Well, I don't even know that.

"Mr. Raini was by his side, starting with Prince Algard... I knew visibly that Mr. Raini was unfamiliar with the nobility, but I couldn't have the courage to jump into the vortex myself without any particular edge."

To the Prince, to the Secretary of the Ministry of Magic, to the son of the Commander of the Kingsguard Knights, and to the son of Uncle Borderline, a luxurious son. I can see the shadow of a man like that. You don't want to get near Raini. It's not about nobility either, if it's also about being a former civilian child.

That's not a funny story either. So I'm also convinced Halfis has thin contacts with the two of them.

"What might you think would be thicker if two people couldn't help themselves in hard times..."

"No. One of those things was my immaturity. It's not like Halfis cares."

"Oh, yeah. That, well, I wasn't good either... ah, I figured I'd better stand up too..."

"I know you were accompanied as a samurai, but I hope you will remain seated as an alumni. What do you say? Mr. Raini."

"... let me sweeten your words"

You look like the cat I borrowed, Raini. I resented him for laughing that Raini looked strange and dull by accident. I got my eyes turned.

I don't feel anything bad about Yufi and Raini from Miss Halfis. I guess the distance wasn't intimate, as they said. I somehow know that two people in college are hard to lean on, so I'm not even going to blame them for that.

Then again, I guess Miss Halfis's aim is to have a connection with me as the text suggests. I know it's Miguel's planting, but I have to figure out how I've planted it.

"So, Miss Halfis, may I ask why you invited me today?

"Yes.... can I call other customers before we talk about that?

"Other customers?

"Yes. My fiancée and her friend are inviting me, too. I would like you to meet Her Royal Highness Princess Anisphere... if this is inconvenient, let me explain it to you."

"Well, I don't mind."

"Thank you"

Your fiancée and that friend with you? I wonder if this is Miguel's planting, too. Where will Miss Halfis's sincerity lie? I haven't seen that yet, so I'll take a good look.

She drops off Miss Halfis's fiancée and the butler who apparently went to get that friend, and puts her mouth on the tea treat. Hmm, not bad. Maybe I'll make it for Raini next time.

Tongue drumming on tea and sweets, the butler returns within less time. Two young people followed in.

One looks like a serious young man with dark brown hair. This one feels "committee chairman" too. If I had glasses, it would still look like that.

The other one is a brother-in-law. She has a big body but looks like a Buddha....... hmm? That, I mean, it looks familiar, I knew him.

"Oh, Gakun."

"Would you stop calling me Gakkun, Master Anisphere! It's a gark!"

"No, the style is beautiful."

"What style beauty..."

"Do you know him? Dear Annis."

"Gakun...... Gark was an adventurer. My parents are part of the Knights of the Borders and I also aspire to join the Knights. I got a request for an escort for an outdoor exercise, and it was me who got it connected."

Gark Lamp. He was born as the son of the Baron Lamp family and father, a member of the Knights of the Borders. He is a young man who aspires to become a knight to succeed his parents.

"So, who beat me to Cotempan"

"Please don't!

"Lost?

"I told you to go home if you're a princess, so I did a mock fight and I messed it up."

Well, it was a sword battle with only physical strengthening. Even I can't do something unscrupulous without the aid of engraving. I told Gakun he could use magic, but he just tried to strengthen his body, so he won it all.

The results also accompanied the outdoor exercise properly. Then it was hard because it's really something that demons come out of. Gakun and I fought properly against demons among them, so I'm pretty hopeful for you because I think it's a prospect, I guess I even said so.

"How many years? About two years? How are you? Why are you in Wang Du again?

"Yeah, you're right. He was trained in the Kingsguard Knights now."

"To the Kingsguard Knights? Why, again, I think it's a little different from the border..."

"That's, well. I'll talk to you later."

I lean my neck towards Gakun, who says something spicy. Then I noticed a serious looking young man standing next to me smiling softly.

"The martial arts tradition that Gark was talking about was true, wasn't it? No, I wasn't suspicious. I'll see you first, Princess Anisphere. My name is Marion Anti. I will be the youngest brother of the Count Anti family."

"Count Antie's house?

That one, I remember hearing it somewhere. Marion smiles bitterly as I lean my neck in doubt.

"My father may know. My father currently works for the Ministry of Magic."

"... oh, you should have said that"

Count Anti. I remember being a less harmful person. I'm not even close. Few people adopt that kind of "leave me out of it" attitude in the Ministry of Magic.

The Ministry of Magic isn't a complete rock either. I don't bite my magic, but I don't even try to get it in my eyes. A force that is opportunistic, for better or worse.

There are three main reactions to me in the Ministry of Magic, one force that bites me by saying it's blasphemy or something, and one force that also hears that my story makes sense. And at the end of the day, I'm not involved. You don't listen to me, but I can also say people who don't agree that theory is a rush.

To be honest, I didn't want to interfere either because I didn't want to. I wasn't pushing for understanding. But I guess we need to convince and convince these people in the future.

"Halfis invited Princess Anisphere today, and I wanted to be there."

"Oh, so you're Miss Halfis's?

"I will be your fiancée. In the future, I think I'll be the son-in-law. My brother will inherit the house..."

"I see. How do you know Gakun?

"It was synchronization with the Academy of Aristocrats"

"Well, it was synchronized."

When you're done saying hello, everyone takes their seats. Confirming that, Miss Halfis looked over at everyone before turning to me. The expression is serious in itself, and I correct my habitation naturally, too.

"Okay, so we're all set. First of all, thank you again for attending the tea party I hosted. And the reason I hosted the tea party today was... Princess Anisphere. Please, I want you to ask us for a professor."

"... Professor?

"of magic, its wisdom."

I frowned at Miss Halfis's words. I want you to give me the wisdom of magic, hey.

"May I ask why?

"I'm not sneaky to expose myself to shame... but I'm not sure my magical arm is okay. Whatever the grades of the college, whether it's seating or manners, magic will be quicker to count from below."

Miss Halfis zeroes a grunt that seeps so much remorse that she seems to bite her lips. Besides, I look like I'm in trouble. I was in the middle of a conversation, but I'm going to pinch my mouth.

"I want you to wait a minute. So why would you want to hear about magic? If you're looking for something magical, I say no."

"Yes, no! Oh, no, it's not! I don't mean to do that! It's just... I have my doubts."

"Doubt?"

"… distrust of the Spirit"

Miss Halfis shrugs as if confessing her sins. distrust of the Spirit, I frowned when I heard.

That does make it sound like a confession of sin. Because that's a wrong thought as a magician, as a teaching in this country.

"Many times I read the magic textbook and deciphered the references. I changed my daily life and continued enthusiastically with indispensable prayer for the Spirit. But my magic never showed any signs of improvement...... but if I talk to my parents and teachers about it, they will say. As long as you don't believe, magic will never improve."

The Spirit receives people's prayers and wishes, and gives them the miracle of magic. That is the general perception of magic in this country as well.

Faith in the Spirit dulls magic. Don't doubt the Spirit. There's nothing wrong with that. I'm sure that's what they said. I know because I've been told, too. Believe in the Spirit more.

"... my engagement with Marion was made under the promise that my father would serve Marion's father well and unite his children to deepen their relationship with each other's homes. But I'm told I shouldn't blank my engagement because I don't have the magic talent."

"Is that... my parents?

"No, my father's surroundings."

It was Marion who replied in place of Miss Halfis. Miss Halfis bites her lips and lets her gaze down.

"I am the son of a member of the Ministry of Magic. Yet they say that magic is inferior to the other's son-in-law. I was wondering if you could reconsider to leave some excellent blood behind."

"Is Marion good?

"As a young man, I went straight into the Ministry of Magic with my graduation"

"Which means you're good."

It takes a lot of magical talent to enter the Ministry of Magic. Is it the influence, the people in the Ministry of Magic are generally elite thinking. In fact, I admit he's an excellent wizard.

"Because my brother will inherit my home, I have no choice but to merit to start a new home or enter my son-in-law's house elsewhere. My father and I don't think we're going to destroy our engagement, but the pressure is getting stronger, and I haven't had an invitation from your daughter once or twice."

"Ugh..."

It's a story that comes down unexpectedly. Marion does look good. I guess it's an excellent property if you think you just have the strength to get into the Ministry of Magic there. I have to leave the house, so maybe a lot of ladies want to welcome me home.

That's why I don't like trying to take it away from someone who has a fiancée. I wish that engagement wreck was a round one, but that doesn't seem like it.

"This situation, even for me, is unintentional. Honestly, I have to wonder what the Spirit is and what magic is for while I'm about to stop by Halfis..."

"... as good as it gets"

It's like instinct to want better blood. That's not to be denied. Marion and those who work around him may also be words from goodwill. To leave a good wizard behind.

Plus Miss Halfis's position is weak when the other person becomes the son of the Count family. I don't think there are many who would rather be in our home than Miss Halfis if they were son-in-law.

"Originally the Viscount Nebles family was a house the knight was pleased with. That loyalty and mindset is still handed down today. For the country, and for the Anties who took us. … I have thought that I should pull back, which is not even me."

Miss Halfis, who was biting off her lips, slowly raised her face. There's a sad look there. That's about all I could tell you about how much I was worried about.

"Still, I admire Master Marion. I don't want to lie about this feeling."

"... I know what happened to Miss Halfis. The history of distrust of the Spirit is also painful. So why are you asking me to talk to you?

"I heard rumors. Her Royal Highness Princess Anisphere said that magic was academic. That's an unprecedented magical point of view, and you'll be able to expand your visibility. Her Royal Highness Princess Anisphere is now looking for new talent to teach magic."

"Rumor, hey"

"We have also heard that His Majesty gave his royal life in anticipation of the point of view of magic. If you ask me… I have prepared seats like this without being present or standing."

... As far as I can tell, I understand the story. I unwittingly arm myself and shut up.

Yeah, I got the story. But I don't know how to convey this thought to her.

"... I also somehow understand why Marion is here. You want to help Miss Halfis, don't you?

"I've come to question myself, for some reason...... yes. I love her too. I don't want to keep messing around with people."

Marion also mouths spicy. Makes me want to exhale by accident.

"What about Gakun?

"Please call me by my proper name!... I'm not as deeply troubled as Marion or Miss Halfis. I just feel my limitations, don't I? I can't stretch my magic anymore."

"... not serious, but the same worries as Miss Halfis?

"No, I,... No, I, ha"

"Uh, no more, just break it down and talk. Because I don't care."

"Hi-no... Well, I don't think magic has to stretch. I'm a knight, and I know magic isn't the only way to be strong. I think it's smarter to bow your head to someone who knows how to be strong enough to do something that doesn't fit your height."

"So you want to rely on magic?

"Rather than relying on it, I want to know if you can see from Master Anisphere whether you can still stretch the magic. I want to be strong. It doesn't have to be magic."

Gakun looks straight at me and says so. In a way, should I say clean? Whether magic really doesn't stretch, and if it doesn't, is there another way? In that sense, it's positive compared to Miss Halfis and Marion.

I listen to them so far, and the bitter things in me spread inside me. Exhale slowly and mouth wishing that bitter feeling was not poisonous.

"I'm honestly glad you're expecting me, and it's an honor. But I don't know if I can help you..."

"- Dear Anis,

I don't know, the mouth I tried to say was blocked by Uffi. Yufi is staring at me with only a few eyes caught. What, why is Yufi staring at me...?

"Dear Anis, you can't speak of that"

"But, Uffi"

"They're the ones who decide that. They're just begging you to teach them, and they're not asking you to save them....... I know how you feel. But what you need now is not kindness. Confidence."

"... Confidence?

"Trust your" magic. "What you have learned about the path you have taken. There will also be a responsibility on the part of teaching. You'll also need to guide them right. But as much as you learn, you have to think about it and be prepared to choose the right path.... you should decline if their readiness is disproportionate. So if Anis doesn't speak with confidence, he shouldn't."

"... so confident"

Thoughts floating like starch. Can I teach anyone about magic, my God? Because I can't use magic. All this time, those thoughts were lying in my heart. I wonder how I can preach the teachings of "magic itself" to someone who can use magic.

But. If I can't... Then who the hell can? I am also familiar with the bitterness of not being able to use magic. What has saved me from such suffering? If you think about it, you'll get your own answers.

"... right. Thank you, Uffi. I shouldn't talk about it."

"Yes."

"'Cause I don't know." Look for answers. That's my way of life. So if you can't do that... I can't tell you. My magic is not meant to save someone. I'm thinking about walking out to save myself. "

My thoughts gradually settle when I speak for myself. "Magic" is a miracle to me that makes someone smile. But I was never given the miracle.

But I didn't want a miracle from me. I did want to use it. Instead of praying for a miracle though, I chose the path to grasp hope.

That's my way of life. There was no miracle for me, but there is hope that I found it myself. I don't know, so move on. I may have been really scared to ask someone to be ready for that.

"Miss Halfis, Marion,... and then Gakkun"

"Next!? Please stop gagging!?"

"Chip...... Bye, Gark. I'm gonna ask the three of you again, okay? Are you ready to grab the stars?

"... the stars? No, you can't reach that."

Hey, Gah. Read the air, that's why you're gagging, gagging! You bastard!

"That's what my magic is all about. I flew through the sky. Then we have to be willing to grab the stars next time. There is no end. Nobody decides. It's all up to you. Someone won't be ready to finish it, or maybe they won't help. Still ready to shape dreams you can't grasp?

Three people shut up about my inquiry. And it was Miss Halfis who opened her mouth first a little while later.

"As long as you keep exposed to yourself without even being like this, I'd like to follow the stars even if they say you're unusual and funny. Please show me the mark for this, Your Highness."

"From me, too, please. If this is another way to explore, we will be ready to continue later."

Miss Halfis is followed by Marion who also looks straight at me and says: If you look into those eyes, it's silly to ask them if they're ready.

Gakun... what, let me hold your mouth. What is that attitude that doesn't boil off?

"... Gurk. Why don't you just confess?"

"Stop it, Marion"

"You said you joined the Kingsguard knights, not the border, because you wanted to be near the Princess Anisphere you admired."

"Duhhhh!?"

... Huh?

"Why do you say it in front of him?"

"I guess it's because you don't boil it off. You've been admiring Princess Anisphere since I went home on a long vacation and suddenly told you I was going to join the Kingsguard Knights when I got back. I knew I was desperately thinking of dialogue by myself if I could take that teaching..."

"Ya, stop, wow, wow, wow!!"

"Shut up, Gah"

Why is it such an idea to admire me when I did it to you? Are you a mazo?

"No, it's not! I'm really just impressed with Master Anisphere...! Oh, no, Marion! You!"

"Yes, yes, I know Gakun too, so be quiet"

"Goddamn it... kill it...!

There's no demand, Gakun said! Shut up already!

And Raini, don't point your raw, warm gaze at me. Don't even look at me with a smile on your face. Goddamn it, Gah...!
