Volu 2 Chapter 2 - Visitor From Outside World Part 2
{——First year class two, Amasaki Mio-san, Hayashizaki Kazuki-kun, Hiakari Koyuki-san, urgent, please co to the Student Council’s room.}
As soon as school was over, the voice of Kaguya-senpai was broadcasted and summoned out Kazuki and the others. Kazuki’s eyes soon t with Koyuki, who sat behind, and then joined with Mio who sat in the front, and ca out of the class.
The Witch’s Mansion, in the end, was a building for the sake of living, a [dormitory], so there was a different room to do the work of the student council. The location was next to the staff room of the Magic Division.
Why were they summoned? A notice was fixed on the door of the student council’s room with a ssage [This week’s Diva Contracting Ritual will be perford at Wednesday]. Recently, the work of the student council was in carrying out the contracting ritual.
Although they were summoned urgently, there was no one inside the room other than Hoshikaze-senpai.
“Kaguya will co soon, so please wait a little.” Senpai smiled with the look of a know-it-all.
After a while, the door opened with a strong montum and Kaguya-senpai entered.
“I made you wait huh, first years? Today I will introduce a new comrade okaaayyy!”
Kazuki and the others opened their eyes in surprise because Kaguya-senpai, out of the blue, said comrade with a rry voice.
“Go on, co in! This child is the new rank A first year… Charlotte-chan!”
Kaguya-senpai turned back to the corridor——and the figure that appeared was the transfer student, Lotte.
“Please treat well! Ah, the ani person! I am in the sa class with the three of them desune!”
Lotte bowed her head quickly and smiled. This transfer student is a [new comrade]…?
“It might be confusing suddenly saying a thing like that… however, you guys have at least already understood slightly that this girl is not just your everyday student right?”
Liz Liza-sensei ca following Lotte’s back and said that while closing the door of the student council room.
“That thing about my distant relative is a lie. Actually she doesn’t even have Japanese nationality. This girl——there is no reason to use polite language so I called her this girl, but——she escaped from the Dukedom of Seinmundo in Europe using a private jet. In other words, she is a [refugee]. This girl doesn’t have the right of succession but she is equivalent to the daughter of the ruling duke of Seinmundo.
Refugee?, Kazuki and the others were dumbfounded and lost their words hearing that unfamiliar heavy word.
The true identity of the transfer student, that should originally be impossible was——the princess of a foreign country?
The Dukedom of Seinmundo. Although they have self-autonomy that was recognized to so extent, it was a country that received the rule of a certain magic advanced country, [Germany]. It is a small puppet state in Northern Europe.
Because of the birth of magic in this world, the world’s state of affairs underwent a drastic change.
The world’s ?Big Seven Magic Advanced Countries? with the backing of divine protection from their own respectively different Mythology owned powerful military strength. And so the other countries that didn’t earn the divine protection from Divas were placed under the patronage of a magic advanced country.
However, Japan was the only Magic Advanced Country that didn’t participate in ruling any other country, existing solely with their own self-support.
Also the Big Seven Magic Advanced Countries have no diplomatic relations at all.
If one were to ask why, it was because the divine protection from Divas of Solomon 72 Pillars, who didn’t demand faith was an exception. However, Mythology beca stronger when there were more faith. Due to the direct relationship between military power and faith to the Mythology, the Magic Advanced Countries, other than Japan, were converting into [Religious Nation] little by little. Religious nations where the religion encroached into their politics made it impossible for them to co-exist in harmony with other religious nations.
At first, there were no problems between the Magic Advanced Countries and diplomatic relations still existed. In the period of 15 years however, the faith to Mythology was gradually deepening and the friction between countries beca bigger, and finally, Japan cut off all diplomatic ties and fell into isolation.
The once existing EUEuropean Union that unified Europe and the United Nations, with connections that crossed over the borders between countries, were already becoming a re shadow of what they once were. Due to alchemy, the production efficiency of food increased and the necessity for foreign trade was lost, expediting the split of the world.
Today was the first ti Kazuki ever heard the na of [Seinmundo Dukedom]. From this kind of circumstances, there was practically no information that entered Japan about other advanced countries or the countries that were under their protection.
Since the Second World War, the aim of world globalization and the circulation of international cooperation experienced a sudden reversal due to the birth of magic, and the world had ran full speed into the direction towards division as its destination.
——Inside such flow of the world, before one noticed it, a battle royal between every religious nation that would induce Mythology WarRagnarok didn’t seem like a wild tale anymore.
“But, really… a princess?”
For people who had lived with the doctrine of democracy, such words felt like it would cause the sensation of indigestion.
Kazuki stared at Lotte while feeling confused and the girl returned an elegant smile.
Now that it was ntioned, the girl’s deanor always felt like the breeding of nobility.
“The Seinmundo Dukedom's formation was around the period when magic was born, it is still a country with a short history. In Europe, a human born with excellent magic power is regarded as soone with high social status, and the countries with restored monarchy system are not few. Nonetheless, beyond that under the patronage of an advanced magic country, the one who rules the country is not a king but a duke. It's not a kingdom but a dukedom, not an independent country but a puppet state, their status fallen.”
Having said that, it could be said that in the end, the advanced magic country and the country under its patronage didn’t have equal relations.
It seems a humane patronage was done under the na of faith.
“Japan doesn’t have diplomatic ties with Seinmundo, so currently I am no more than a refugee, I am resigned no matter what kind of treatnt I receive desu.”
Lotte, the refugee who was forrly a princess whispered such.
“I’ll say this in advance, don’t do anything strange to her.” Liz Liza-sensei glared with glinting eye.
“It’s too late, the classmates were already…”
“What!?” Liz Liza-sensei’s expression changed.
“Her cheek was rubbed until it was squishy. They felt around the cheek of a princess of a whole country.”
“That was… felt good desu…?”
Toward the ecstatic Lotte, Liz Liza-sensei can only breathe a long sigh in exhaustion.
“…She is not a princess anymore but a refugee. From now on we don’t understand [what kind of aning she has politically]. Because of that, first you guys protect her, furthermore this academy is chosen to give her the chance in education with people of the sa age.”
I see, if you think about a place where she could be protected and receive education, there is no better place than this academy.
Of course it went unsaid, but her placing in this academy surely also included monitoring her activity.
That point resembled Kazuki’s position a little. This matter tends to be forgotten but——Kazuki’s stay in the Witch’s Mansion also included the implication of monitoring there.
“They made a lie about being Liz Liza-sensei’s relative because of that circumstance you see. Even if we say that she is a Japanese, but it is sowhat unnatural with her speech and conduct.”
Liz Liza-sensei also had the appearance of a foreigner, but she had already been through naturalization from a long ti ago. Liz Liza- sensei was also a forr knight, but you must have Japanese nationality to beco a knight.
In contrast with that, Lotte was——a genuine foreigner coming from the outside world where we didn’t even have any diplomatic relations just a while ago.
“Having said that, this girl only ca looking for an asylum from three days ago, and she had already learned how to speak Japanese you know.”
“Three days!? How in the world!?”
“By telepathy, she thoroughly synchronized with the consciousness of a Japanese person, and then it seems she traced everything that had .”
“Machia? Caral macchiato?” Mio said a strange thing like an airhead.
“A story of Greece is it? We can judge that it is highly possible this Diva is from the Greek mythology.”
Liz Liza-sensei crossed her hand and gave an explanation like she was starting the class.
“…We learned that in Mythology class but, Greek Mythology depicted two WarMachia that gambled the existence of the universe. First was the Titanomachia, where Zeus and other gods challenged the Titans that ruled the universe. The second ti was the Gigantomachia where the children of the Titans, the Giants, waved the banner of revolution towards Zeus who had beaten the Titans and beca the chief god."
Prophet nodded his head with his still expressionless face towards Liz Liza-sensei’s words.
“Quite so. Even though I don’t understand who I am, I still have so mory in the degree of simple knowledge. I rember it. In Titanomachia, Zeus and the other gods won only with the strength of gods. In Gigantomachia they needed the cooperation of humans. They gained the assistance of Hercules and was able to win. And then in the third Machia… humans will beco the leading actor and humans will be the ones that need to overco the enemy… it will beco a battle like that.”
“Prophet has the power of prediction. Though he couldn’t understand everything, but only for the truly important thing, it’s only vague prediction but it seems he can perceive it desu.”
“It seems my mission was contradicting so other Diva. Because of that, I fought with another Diva, got defeated, and then lost my strength, that’s what I thought.”
A Diva that was hostile toward this mysterious Diva, Prophet. Who on earth could that be?
Was it possible for that Diva to pursue Prophet to here in Japan?
And then the prediction of the third Machia like in the Greek Mythology.
In Titanomachia it was a war against titans, and if Gigantomachia was a war against giants then——
The third Machia would be… what kind of person would beco the enemy in that war?
While on this topic, Loki from Norse Mythology also predicted about Mythology WarRagnarok. Ragnarok and the third Machia. Was it a coincidence that two Mythologies predicted a battle in the sa period?
“Inside you…” Prophet whispered faintly.
“Inside you, it seems there might be a possibility that you could overco the enemy.”
The silver eyes of the Prophet imdiately——faced towards Kazuki.
“You see what kind of complicated set of human and Diva these two are? …That’s why we revealed their circumstance to you guys. We will entrust these two to the Witch’s Mansion. Starting from now, it has also beco surveillance to these two.”
“It was also the sa with Otouto-kun, but we welco that kind of surveillance! If you ask why, then it is because she is cutee!! It’s a surveillance in the na of love! I will do it with all my strength!!”
Kaguya-senpai hugged Lotte with all her strength. Lotte opened her eyes in surprise but then she returned the hug happily. Muu, Kaguya-senpai has been taken by the newcor.
“There is one more thing… Amasaki Mio, Hayashizaki Kazuki, add this girl into your party.”
“Eh… EEHH!? In our party!?”
Kazuki had vaguely predicted this from Hoshikaze-senpai’s words this morning but… for Mio it was really shocking. Lotte was “Is it not okay…?”, making an anxious face because of that.
“Eh, no, it’s not that it’s not okay but… co on Kazukii”
“Lotte’s ti with her contract is still not long but, she can already use summoning magic up to level 3. Prophet’s strength is still not perfect but on top of Lotte’s advanced skill in telepathy, her condition is also close with possession, that’s why her chanting is fast. She should compensate for the weakness of you guys.”
“Hee, let’s do a mock battle tomorrow to test it okay?”
Hoshikaze-senpai raised a voice filled with deep interest toward the unknown magician.
If the weak point of our party got filled then it was not a bad story.
Her strength was still deed unsatisfactory to enter Kaguya-senpai’s party, so it seed it was decided that she would be added to our party.
“Understood, we will accept her into our party happily.”
“Ani-oniisan! Thank YouDanke shun desu!”
Lotte suddenly separated herself from Kaguya-senpai and this ti she flew into Kazuki’s chest——‘Chuu’ and then she pressed her lips at Kazuki’s cheek.
“Wha, what the!? What are you doing to Kazu-niii!?”
Mio eyes opened wide and raised a voice that was half-screaming.
Lotte then separated from Kazuki and this ti she was also hugging Mio whose face was still stiff in surprise, then,
“Danke shun Mio-oneesan! Please take care of desu!”
She also kissed Mio’s cheek. Mio made a complex expression that was half angry and half shy. This was the way of a foreign country… was it really? Kazuki who didn’t know anything about the world outside didn’t understand.
“Did you prefer kiss on the lips? Should I redo it desu?”
When she noticed the two people was currently bewildered, Lotte tilted her head in wonder.
“There is no need to redo it! Ki, kiss on the mouth is a no! I an any kind of kiss is no good!”
Mio ‘funfun’ with great force.
“…Why is that? Is it a strange thing to show feelings of gratitude using a kiss? Moreover… I clearly feel the happiness from both of you desu.”
“What do you an by sensing our feeling… is it telepathy?”
For an expert of telepathy, they could even sense the feeling inside the subconscious of the other party.
Of course it was impossible to perceive everything from their heart though.
“Why does your mouth say no even though you are happy in your heart? What is this contradiction desu…?”
“Lotte, in Japan you mustn’t kiss soone other than a person that is truly important to you. Especially a mouth to mouth kiss—a person that you’ll protect by betting your whole life, kiss is sothing that is filled by such an oath.”
“Oath! …I see, so it is an act filled with important significance, isn’t it desu.”
Suddenly Kazuki recalled when he kissed Mio who fell because of Loki’s evil blade. Unintentionally he glanced at Mio’s face. …That lips, he kissed that lips. He rembered that ti [I’ll protect Mio no matter what], an oath was budding. Though it seems Mio didn’t rember it…
When Mio noticed Kazuki’s gaze, “Wha, what are you looking at?” she beca embarrassed.
“…Hmm, though if I can say one thing, kissing Kazuki’s cheek like that, if Kanae-san was here in this place the we wouldn’t be able to guarantee Lotte’s life would we? Ahaha.”
Hoshikaze-senpai laughed strangely. …It was troubling because it didn’t seem like a joke when he imagined it.
“I also——will pledge my allegiance towards you too.”
Prophet faced Le and then waited upon her like a knight. Thereupon magic was invoked of its own accord in front of Kazuki’s eyes. As the ring emitted the light of magic power, an image of a graph floated up.
Amasaki Mio——127 Otonashi Kaguya——75 Hiakari Koyuki——49 Hoshikaze Hikaru——39
Lotte——35
The graph increased by one line!? Even though Lotte was not a contractor of Solomon 72 Pillar!
{I see, so this is what she ant. Truly, that this kind of thing happened… Interesting!}
Le only talked to Kazuki inside his heart. It was a voice that only Kazuki could hear.
Kazuki recalled his conversation with Liz Liza-sensei inside the staff room——[With the ability of Legeton, in the case that you beca friendly with a magician that has a contract with a Diva other than Solomon 72 Pillar, what would happen?]
Is that so, Sensei was confirming that based on this possibility.
“…My King! Keep to yourself this possibility that your conquering targets exceeds far more than 72 people!”
