Coincidentally, Ruid, who witnessed the slap, dragged Hersy to Alia’s manager’s office.
“Bye, it wasn’t a big deal.”
When asked what was going on, Hercy vehently denied it. Ruid didn’t force it. just.
Jii-
I just looked at him and Alia.
Hersy could not last more than 10 minutes as the two blonde siblings stared at her as if her face was boring.
Eventually she told the story.
The story was quite long.
Hersi grew up in a fairly harsh family environnt. Since childhood, parents have set harsh standards rather than affection. If they did not follow suit even a little, they were subject to corporal punishnt.
It is said that Klein was the only source of strength in that environnt. The other brothers were also kind. However, as soon as he beca the successor, everything changed.
Today I mustered up the courage to apologize and say I wanted to go back to the way things were before, but it didn’t work out. There’s probably no hope now.
Hercy even cried a little when she said the last part.
“Well, that’s just the way it happened. … I don’t think badly of my brother. “It happened because I was immature.”
Hersi finished her story and wiped her red eyes.
‘He’s an older brother who feels inferior to his younger sister… he’s narrow-minded.’
But can it be easily defined with a sentence like this?
It will not be easy to judge Klein’s feelings about being deprived of the inheritance by a 5-year-old girl.
I can’t say it was right, but it wasn’t sothing I couldn’t understand.
“What do you want to do?”
“I hope the family gets along well. … Like the Windsors.”
“My family’s relationship is not good.”
Ruid blinked.
Hersi was puzzled.
“yes?”
“A grew up getting beaten all the ti by Irene.”
The corners of Alia’s mouth twitched.
“Lu…i? “It was just sparring.”
“It must be violence under the guise of sparring. “I couldn’t hold back my tears every ti my sister got hit.”
“…You yawned.”
Alia’s shoulders went down weakly. Where did my authority as an older sister go?
“But everyone cares about Ruid.”
“Because that’s .”
“….”
Alia sighed and added.
“I’m a little upset, but it’s true. Hersy.”
Ruid nodded. It’s a bit funny to think like this after being possessed.
“It’s just not well known to the outside world, and the battle for Windsor’s succession has always been fierce.”
“really?”
“yes. Windsor selects its successor through a test. Competition is bound to be fierce. However, it is true that their thod is peaceful, unlike other noble families. “There is no direct conflict.”
Alia stroked Luid’s head.
“This generation’s Windsor doesn’t even do that. “That has a lot to do with Ruid’s presence.”
To be exact, it was because Ruid was a wizard.
A wizard cannot beco the head of Windsor. Therefore, Ruid was automatically excluded from the succession competition.
With her younger brother excluded, Alia was able to give up the succession relatively easily.
Because I can live with my younger brother.
“I can’t bear to fight over such a cute younger sibling. Above all, my sister is much better than .”
“admit.”
Ruid nodded.
Comparing Alia and Irene, both have strengths and weaknesses – but
Irene’s abilities as the head of the family were much better. Irene has good decision-making skills. I handle any task simply and without hesitation.
‘I’m sorry Alia, but I’m sure she’ll be bullied if she becos a duke.’
Alia glared at Ruid for a mont, then looked at Hercy and spoke warmly.
“Whether our relationship gets better or worse is not up to Hercy.”
“Is that so?”
“It’s a question of whether you accept it or not. There is no chance of the relationship moving forward unless he admits defeat. “All Hersey can do is show an overwhelming display.”
Hercy lowered his head. He twitched his mouth for a mont and then spoke.
“Then- wouldn’t they hate even more? “It would be better to give up your position as the head of the family.”
“Hercy.”
Alia shook her head.
“That is an insult to the other person. “You’ll probably feel more miserable.”
“…!”
“Work hard to prove your abilities. “Rather than giving up competition, it is better to compete in good faith.”
Hercy looked at Alia. He said, feeling a little embarrassed.
“thank you. I… I think Alia will do well as the head of the family. “Wow, you are so great.”
Ruid turned his head and looked away.
However, Alia’s self-objectification was accurate.
“I am not suitable for the position of head of the family. A knight escorting his sister would be more suitable. Or sothing like Ruid’s guard knight.”
‘An escort knight… that’s good.’
Alia felt like a slightly oversized retriever. He eats well and is quietly reassuring.
I didn’t think it would be a bad idea to be a fool for Alia for the rest of my life. If you want to live an unemployed life, you really need soone to support you.
‘The life my sister chose. Take responsibility.’
From today onwards, Alia cannot get married.
I am single for life. You will make it happen yourself. That’s because he said he would beco his escort. Until you die, you have to live only with yourself.
Ruid grinned with an ill-tempered expression.
“Lou, Louis? “Why such a scary expression…”
Alia smiled awkwardly, feeling an unexplainable ominous feeling.
**
Advice from Alia.
Ruid didn’t think it was wrong, but he thought it wasn’t the best.
It’s not like Hersy is like Irene and exudes an unassailable force.
Because she seed to be already trying hard enough.
Above all, the reason why Alia and Irene get along so well is purely because Alia is nice.
The case is different with Hercy.
“Let’s just watch it for now.”
Ruid had no intention of greatly intervening.
It’s also annoying.
I don’t want to ddle in other people’s family history.
However, if it was severe, I had the intention of filtering it out in advance.
Ruid visited the third year building at the Ministry of Magic.
[Should we just brainwash him? Such an arrogant person.]
Miho, sitting on Ruid’s shoulder, growled weakly. Ruid said indifferently.
“Pointless ddling.”
[I cannot forgive you for ssing with Hersi.]
“Do whatever you want. “Because I’m annoying.”
[…You say it’s a bother and you’re going to solve it.]
“I’m taking a walk.”
[In the building…?]
Ruid looked around in the hallway. According to the student list, Klein is currently taking [Delin’s Magic Theory]. And the class takes place on the second floor of Building No. 4.
[ Interpretation of Delrin’s magic ] I’m certain because I stole a look at Professor Phenicia’s calendar.
The information was accurate. Klein was seen taking class inside the classroom.
“Oh, by the way, we just happened to run into each other. “With a an person who slaps his younger brother.”
Miho was taken aback as she saw Ruid muttering in a casual tone.
‘Master, you’re really bad at acting.’
Ruid raised his tiptoes to the window and peeked into the classroom.
‘I can’t tell anything from this.’
Klein’s entire body was drenched in sweat.
What was certain was that I listened to the class very diligently.
I don’t know why they do push-ups in magic theory lectures.
…It was probably Clifford’s influence.
‘I need a little device. ‘Is there any way to know that person’s personality?’
Ruid made eye contact with Miho.
A cute white arctic fox.
Should I try this in and see if I like it?
‘no. ‘There is no person in this world who does not love arctic foxes.’
However, it is difficult to go and talk to him in person because Klein is a nobleman.
Even slave traders would be kind to themselves.
“Hmmmm.”
While Ruid was smoothing his chin, a fact suddenly occurred to him.
“fox.”
[Nng.]
“Can you figure out whether that person is good or bad?”
[Wouldn’t it be okay to hypnotize and ask?]
“Are there any side effects?”
Miho raised the corners of her mouth strangely. It was a bit creepy because it looked like a fox.
[Once you fall under my hypnosis, you beco a wreck.]
“….”
Let’s quit.
Instead, Ruid quickly used his brain to find the optimal answer.
“You can turn into a human, right?”
[that’s right. Because Miho is an all-rounder.]
“Since she’s a nine-tailed fox, it wouldn’t be a problem to seduce at least one human, right?”
Miho realized what Ruid was asking and made an expression of disapproval.
“It cuts off mana.”
As soon as I heard that, there was a pop and smoke rose up.
What appeared was Miho’s humanized appearance. However, it was not the blue-haired girl I saw last ti.
“fox.”
Ruid narrowed his eyebrows.
“How is it similar to ?”
“It’s an illusion.”
Miho said, crossing her arms dissatisfied.
What Miho changed into was a small, pretty girl with blond hair.
Exactly, a female version of Ruid.
It was a punishnt for seducing other n while usually not paying attention to them.
“…change. Upset.”
Of course, Ruid felt bad.
“Oh, I can only change my polymorph once a day. You can grow here, would you like to see it? “The master has grown taller.”
“….”
‘Well, it doesn’t matter.’
I feel a little bad, but Miho is going to have to suffer anyway, so let’s bear with it. However, I thought it was a bit arrogant.
“The operation is simple.”
Ruid explained to Miho.
“Make Klein like you.”
“Ah…”
Miho looked like she really didn’t like it.
“And if he tries to flirt, say, ‘I like people with happy families.’ “The most important thing is to get to know what kind of person Klein is.”
‘You can’t know what a person is like unless you see him in person.’
But I didn’t want to approach him directly to beco friends.
So I ordered Miho. If I saw the various conversations taking place with my own eyes, I was confident that I would quickly judge whether they were good or evil.
If things go better than expected, my relationship with Hercy may improve again.
This was truly two birds with one stone.
“answer.”
Are you flirting with humans?
I really hated Miho.
Really – I hated it so much.
I really, really – really hated it.
More than anything, I was sad.
‘…I gave him advice last ti, but he never said thank you. Always abandoned by Hersy and not even looking for him. This ti, I called for a short ti because I had sothing to write about. It’s really too much.’
Miho was not a pet fox.
Clearly, it was a ‘spirit’ with one personality.
It was a spirit that lived for over 500 years and had its own pride.
Spirits consider communication very important.
No matter how much the owner is, if you give an order that doesn’t make sense, they won’t listen. The contract could have been unilaterally terminated.
“Answer . nine tailed fox. “Do your day job.”
Miho’s cheeks beca puffy.
Ruid beca 20 tis more unpleasant.
Because a person whose hair is longer than his face shows cuteness.
“no, I do not want. “I don’t want to do this.”
‘This is real.’
Ruid decided to speak a little harshly and opened his mouth.
“If it’s a pet fox, act like a pet fox. I an, obey what I say. “It’s about wasting magical energy without doing anything.”
“—!”
Suddenly, Miho’s forehead wrinkled. My face also turned bright red. He said tremblingly.
“I think you should receive true education, master.”
Ruid was just dumbfounded. I shrugged my shoulders.
“What can you do?”
“…What about the high-ranking spirits? “Master, there is more you can do than you think.”
Ruid was dumbfounded. Aren’t you the one who’s going to be angry here? I’m watching her beco a woman on her own terms.
“What are you going to do? “Have you tried it?”
“Obviously – I said give it a try. “I have no regrets.”
Miho’s mouth twitched and she placed her hand on her chest.
A five-colored fox bead ca out from inside my chest.
I lightly threw it into the air with a snap of my wrist.
[Polymorph- Synchronization.]
“…?”
At that mont, the fox bead approached Ruid.
Oh, while he was doing it, the fox bead suddenly got sucked into his body.
Ruid blinked in bewildernt.
Miho’s body glowed and then returned to the form of a fox.
However, it was not its usual size, but was very small and had nine tails.
It was Miho’s main body.
“…what?”
A dazed Ruid.
I soon beca very angry and was about to say sothing—
“…?”
He felt a sense of déjà vu.
‘Why is my voice like this?’
I slowly put my hand behind my neck.
I touched soft hair.
In a place it shouldn’t be.
‘Eh, no way.’
Cold sweat dripped from Luid’s forehead.
With trembling hands, I checked the exact location.
“…doesn’t exist?”
Luid’s pupils trembled slightly.
