There Is No Spring in the Stolen Field

48. provocation (4)

It was a long, long tea time.

Alfonso, who had never even seen my magic yet, just started talking about his career in front of Seria, as if I was starting to be checked.

I did a lot of magic when I was 8 years old, and that I am acquainted with the current leader of the Mage Tower in Ilios Kingdom.

“Hero! To be a member of a warrior party, I think it’s important not only to have skills, but also to have various backgrounds!”

I was a little tired of Alfonso’s bragging, but Judging from Seria’s expression, she looked pretty similar.

“Um~ I do~”

Seria replied in a dry tone to anyone’s eyes.

“I think it’s important to be from a noble lineage or a great family. Hmmm.”

He wasn’t sure if he didn’t check Seria’s face or if he was just pouring out what he wanted to say.

Seria’s expression hardened after listening moderately.

“Did you say lineage and family are important?”

oh. This is bad.

No one knows Seria’s family history better than I, who lived with her.

Seria is from an extremely ordinary commoner. Even my parents were both murdered.

“That’s right! The warrior’s party is a party that represents human beings. I think it’s right to exclude people who have any element that could cause them to get caught.”

Come to think of it, according to what he said, Seria had to write a letter of resignation as a warrior on the day she was nominated.

Of course, I don’t think the imperial government would have sent it to me just because I wrote it.

“Hmm. Alfonso thinks so. I see.”

Seria answered in a very soft voice.

“As expected, I’m glad you know. You agree well with me. hahahahaha.”

Alfonso laughed happily.

“You didn’t say anything about agreeing?”

Seria replied in a cold voice.

“yes?”

Alfonso seemed to grasp the atmosphere only then.

“I can’t agree with that idea, Mr. Alfonso.”

Seria brushed her long hair.

“In the beginning. According to Alfonso-san’s story, a party with a commoner like me as a hero won’t work, right?”

“Ah~ the hero is different! The hero is the representative of humans who have already transcended the concept of social status.”

okay. Even if you think about it, you feel screwed up. It’s Alphonso.

“Then, commoners, except for me, should not be wrong from the start. What do you mean?”

Seria’s words had thorns on them.

“Ah~ It’s not like that… I just…”

He couldn’t finish talking.

“I’ve never in my life ever thought that my parents were holding me back…”

Alfonso took a deep breath and swallowed.

And for some reason, I was also nervous about the words that followed.

“To make me think of that for the first time. Thank you for giving me a new experience. Alfonso.”

I used to put a seed after my name, but this time it was Seria who just called me by my name.

Seria didn’t even look at Alfonso, who hesitated to make an excuse.

Sarah stood up from her seat.

she talked to everyone.

“Did everyone have a good enough time?

The sweets on the table were also bare, and it seemed that guys like Zeke and Kane had already finished their tea.

“Then thank you for joining me today.”

After that, we broke up.

As soon as Seria finished speaking, she immediately left, perhaps offended by Alfonso’s words.

Alfonso still stayed in the seat next to me and let out a deep sigh.

Aigo… why do you say that…

Seeing a man besides me in trouble, I sympathized with him, but at the same time felt sorry for him.

As if regretting his actions, Alfonso suddenly slammed the table.

“Because of the f*cking commoners…!”

Alfonso looked at me resentfully.

hey. no way. Do you want to blame me for saying that?

“…Are you talking about me?”

“…Then, do you think there are other servants besides you here?”

Apparently, until an hour ago, he had been treated with respect, and then quite a few seats had gone out.

“I am the butler.”

In fact, he was a slave, but his official position was higher than that of a servant, so he protested.

“Either that or that… just about the count’s attendant…”

Haa… I don’t know if it’s a position like Luna or Seria, but it seemed that all the stars of the stars were ignoring me.

“I have no apologies.”

Alfonso laughed as if it was absurd.

“If it’s a servant Naburang, can you please stop dreaming of a warrior’s party? It’s not a place like you.”

Should I be patient? Should I not Should I be patient? Should I not

ah. Really, I wondered if I should listen to what the human mage Naburaeng had to say.

Amelia-sama would be upset if she found out I was being treated this way.

You had to buy Alfonso to be human level.

I thought I could win even if I had the ring on right now.

After… I took a deep breath.

Say one more word.

This is the gymnasium. It was a place where you could always have a fight as long as the people who were cleaning up left.

“Please figure out the fraction and live. Huh?”

Alfonso got up and patted my head with his index finger.

done. I’ve been patient enough

If Luna had been here, Alfonso’s head would have been stuck on the floor already.

He probably said, ‘Tell me again,’ and smashed it before I could even use my hand.

I was kind to myself, but I was probably stopping her.

It was the moment I got up and was about to say something to him.

“…it’s unsightly.”

An unexpected person subdued Alfonso.

From Alfonso’s shadow, the shape of two hands slowly stretched out.

The shadow jumped out from behind him without any warning or sign, and covered his mouth with pods in both hands.

This… seemed to be Raven’s ability.

Raven’s technique can never be reacted to by those who see it for the first time.

To be honest, I thought that even if it were me, I would have been beaten.

“…Dog star…”

Raven called my name.

“Yes…”

Isn’t this the first time you’ve called my name directly?

“…I mean, don’t go around getting beaten up.”

Did you care about being a party member?

Thank you.

In fact, since she knew that all of Raven’s actions were acting, she probably decided to act after seeing the whole process.

There was no way he would have taken my side without thinking.

Alfonso struggled, using magic to remove the shadow.

“Haa… haa… is this Mr. Raven’s work…?”

Raven nodded.

“…Sirius… If you bully me, you can’t use it.”

“To think that the treatment of the common people has gotten so much better, the world has gotten better. The world! Ha…”

Alfonso said it as if it were absurd.

“Sirius. Listen carefully. If you stand out one more time, the next time I really won’t let you go. If you’re last, be last. If you’re a servant, be like a servant.”

What if you don’t leave

I thought I wanted to spread a barrier somewhere in the corner and beat him with the ring removed.

“How long have you been hiding under the skirts of women?”

After saying that, he walked out of the arena.

His furious steps made a loud noise.

Haa… I let out a deep sigh.

Nothing happens.

Raven and I were the only ones still left in the gym.

“Thank you, Raven.”

She nodded.

If it hadn’t been for Raven, I would have been impatient and would have trampled on Alfonso with force.

If the news spread all over the place, Alfonso would automatically be pushed out of the ranks of the wizard in the warrior party.

me and arin It could have been a rivalry between the two.

Of course, the image of Alfonso in Seria’s head already seemed to have gone to hell, but that wasn’t my business.

If you make fun of me like that, you should be punished.

That’s how Raven and I left the gymnasium.

Thinking of Luna, I was the one who quickened my steps.

smart.

Standing in front of Luna’s door, I knocked.

No sound was heard.

I thought I was not in the room.

I turned the doorknob to see if it would open.

The door opened without any resistance.

In the hallway, her shoes, which seemed to have been taken off casually, were strewn about.

It seemed that he had returned to the room.

“…Excuse me…?”

Muttering in a low voice, I took off my shoes and went inside.

After passing through the short hallway, she was not seen in the kitchen and living room.

So, it’s in the bedroom…

I grabbed the bedroom doorknob.

I cleared my mind and swallowed once.

good. Let’s go in.

pushed the door and went in

messy hair.

puffy eyes.

Fingernails that are not consistent in length, whether they are torn here and there.

A haggard-looking Luna turned her head towards me.

“…I’m here?”

It was she who greeted me with a faint voice.

“…huh.”

I approached her curled up on the bed.

“…have you been doing well?”

It was Luna who asked me a question as if nothing had happened.

It seemed that he didn’t want to talk about the situation from a while ago.

“…did you cry?”

It was somewhat expected, but I asked anyway.

“…huh.”

I hugged her from behind.

“…it’s not like that.”

“…they said they promised each other…”

It was Luna’s voice that seemed to choke.

“I never promised.”

“…lie.”

“sincerely.”

“Bet me?”

“You bet.”

Luna turned around and looked at me.

“Then did that hero lie?”

I nodded.

It was true, so I was trying to explain it anyway.

Suddenly, Luna returned to her usual form as if she had regained her energy.

“Ha. Look at this b*tch.”

It was a look full of genuine, deep anger.

How severe are the emotional ups and downs?

“I can’t live without being hurt.”

Luna hugged me tightly.

She bit my neck tight to see if she wanted to feel me a little more.

I felt a blue bruise etched at the site of the bite.

“I have to double the amount of humiliation I suffered today, Sirius.”

Luna climbed up from my neck and whispered in my ear.

“Will you help me…?”

It was an irresistible witch’s whisper.
