Flawless person
Manarisama quickly adapted to the academy .
“Haha, Claire is still the same as ever”
“I am relieved Onee-sama has not changed”
Saying so while having a tea are Manarisama and my beloved Claire-sama .
“Manarisama, please talk to me as well”
“You are unfair, Pipi-sama . I also want to talk with Manarisama”
Today, Manarisama joined the group of Claire-sama and her followers .
Manarisama won the followers’ hearts in the twinkling of an eye .
I thought Claire-sama would have an unamused face, but Manarisama seems to be treated as an exception .
“Fufu, Pipi and Loretta thank you . I’m happy to get along with you”
Showing affable smiles to the chattering followers, as expected of a princess to have high interpersonal skills .
Somewhere, someone is different, being swayed by the heavy love .
Who you ask?
It’s me .
“In the poetry lecture earlier, at the end of the poem Manarisama composed, why wasn’t it the standard ‘I devote this poem to you’, but ‘I send this song to you’ instead?”
“It’s a technique of ancient poetry . It was based on the ancient Aine’s poetry”
By saying so, Manarisama showed she memorized Aine’s poetry .
“I love Aine too . Especially “Poems” in the style of Amour’s Poem make my chest tighten”
“Ah, ‘Tilting Scales’ . As for poems in the style of Amour’s Poem, I love Gehle”
She’s truly royalty .
The extent of her education isn’t half-hearted .
Thanks to the game knowledge I can follow their talk, but since I’m not confident in actually talking about culture I will devote myself to serving .
There’s no c.h.i.n.k in Manarisama’s behavior .
Even in the casual manner in which she tilts her cup there’s a huge difference in refinement from the followers .
She doesn’t feel out-of-place next to Claire-sama .
However, Claire-sama who doesn’t lose to royalty is also amazing .
“Rei, sit down as well? Let’s have tea together”
“My, Onee-sama . Rei is a servant? It is unthinkable to have tea together”
I was left out with Claire-sama’s oh dear .
Yup, it’s good she’s unchanged .
I love you .
However―― .
“Don’t say that, Claire . I’m curious about her”
With Manarisama saying so, everybody, starting from Claire-sama, made unamused face .
“Onee-sama . Why did that commoner…”
“I don’t care about status . I want to know more about her . Rei, come”
While suppressing dissatisfied Claire-sama, Manarisama beckoned me over .
“No, it’s as Claire-sama said . I shall refrain”
“My! To refuse Manarisama’s invitation, how rude!”
“This commoner is getting carried away just because she’s a little excellent”
When I refused, the followers unanimously disparaged me .
“Is Rei so excellent?”
“No, compared to Manarisama――”
“Ah, she’s excellent”
Having unexpectedly appeared, it was Rod-sama who interrupted follower’s flattery .
“If it isn’t Rod-sama . Gokigen’you”
“It’s been a long time, Manaria”
Without worrying that it was women-only gathering, Rod-sama smoothly joined the tea party .
“So, how excellent is Rei?”
“She rivals me . Although her etiquette is average, in everything else ordinary n.o.bles are absolutely no match for her . She’s particularly amazing at magic . Its extent is unknown”
Having received tea from a servant, Rod-sama spoke delightedly for some reason .
As Manarisama is royalty, she’s friendly with Rod-sama who’s also royalty, albeit from a different country .
She’s not intimate with him like with Claire-sama, rather it’s diplomatic .
“Hee, I’d like to have a match with her”
“I also think so, but that girl is head over heels with Claire . I can’t quite get her to be my opponent . I’ve tried challenging her to chess, but I was played with”
“To ignore Rod-sama who’s royalty, this is getting more and more interesting”
“Right?”
Saying so, they looked at each other and loudly laughed .
These two differ in gender, but their characters are in some respects similar .
Especially, how they show interest in me .
“Well, I’m also interested in Manaria . I’d like to go against the rumored four attributesQuad Caster holder”
“Fufu, I also would like to see Rod-sama’s Army of Flame once”
With them talking like this, it felt like sparks were scattered and electricity crackled .
“How about it, Manaria . Why don’t we test our strength?”
“It’s no problem for me”
Manarisama readily nodded at Rod-sama’s provocative words .
Rod-sama’s magic skills are famous both inside and outside the country .
To compete with such Rod-sama, naturally Manarisama is also strong .
“Good, let’s go to the sports grounds”
That being the case, the tea party came to an end and a confrontation between Rod-sama and Manarisama was decided in haste .
Just like during the Order of the Academy entrance exam, the magical tool to dampen magic was brought in, and we watched Rod-sama and Manarisama face each other .
“I don’t need to hold back?”
“Feel free to go all out”
“Then… Show me the power of four attributesQuad Caster holder!”
With these word, countless flame soldiers – minions appeared around Rod-sama .
“Hee, this is amazing”
Although an ordinary person would shrink back seeing this scene, Manarisama just showed her interested by smiling .
She has the leeway to .
“Go”
I don’t think Rod-sama was displeased with Manarisama’s att.i.tude, but still he ordered a merciless attack .
The minions rushed Manarisama .
“I see . Then I’ll start with playing by the book”
When Manarisama snapped her fingers, countless ice arrows appeared and intercepted the minions .
The ice arrows and minions cancelled each other and vanished .
“Not yet”
“Not yet”
Rod-sama immediately replenished the minions .
This course of events is the same as when he faced Misha .
As things are, if Manarisama continues defensive fight, by defending against the minions she risks oxygen deficiency .
“I see… There’s no end to them . Do you mind if I also attack”
When she said this, Manarisama snapped her fingers again .
Then, cold air spread all around .
Looking at it, around Manarisama appeared ice soldiers that could be called ice minions .
“Do you mean to fight at my home turf?”
“Do you dislike it?”
“I don’t dislike it, but it’s a little irritating . Well, should we see how far you can go”
Flame and ice, both armies clashed .
“What is happening…?”
Claire-sama appears nervous watching the two of them fight .
She seems aware of Manarisama’s true strength, but even so, her opponent is that Rod-sama .
She’s uneasy Manarisama she reveres will be injured by facing Rod-sama at his full power .
“Manarisama still has plenty of leeway”
I couldn’t stand watching her make a worried face, so I instinctively spoke .
“Even I understand that, however the strength of Rod-sama’s Army of Flame lies in his unusual magic capacity . Is Rod-sama not at an advantage when they both use the same tactic?”
“Manarisama has an ace up her sleeve”
When I said well, please look, Claire-sama’s returned her gaze to the two people with a puzzled appearance .
The battle fell into a stalemate .
Flame and ice minions are repeatedly clas.h.i.+ng midway between Rod-sama and Manarisama .
As Claire-sama said, if this dragged on, Manarisama would be at a disadvantage .
“Yup, I got it”
Suddenly, Manarisama said such a thing .
“What did you get? Did you see through my tactic?”
Rod-sama’s opponent laughed daringly .
“No . It’s this”
Rod-sama’s opponent laughed daringly .
“No . It’s this”
Without her air of having leeway being disturbed, she yet again snapped fingers .
Then, Rod-sama’s flame soldiers disappeared .
“Wha!?”
Rod-sama hurriedly tried to summon minions, but not even a single one appeared .
The situation immediately changed in Manarisama’s favor, Rod-sama was surrounded by the ice soldiers .
“I surrender”
“Thanks for the fight”
The end was all too abrupt .
“What in the world was that?”
“It’s a magic that’s my specialty . It’s a magic to negate magic”
Called Spell Breaker, it’s Manarisama’s signature move .
Manarisama a.n.a.lyzes the composition of her opponents’ magic, then forcibly breaks into it and cancels that very magic .
There are other Spell Breaker users, but there are no other masters of it than Manarisama .
In order to use it, you need to hold the same attribute as the opponent, and to exceed the apt.i.tude of the magic used .
Furthermore, a.n.a.lyzing composition of magic itself is extremely difficult .
Although a.n.a.lysis whenever great magic is created is a national-level project, Manarisama can accomplish it alone and moreover during battle .
I think with this you can understand how outside the norm she is .
With all her apt.i.tudes at the high level and possessing high intelligence, in theory it’s possible for her to negate most magic .
“How nonsensical you are”
“It’s said often”
“It’s the first time I’ve lost so completely . I admit . You are stronger than me”
“Thank you”
Saying so, the two shook their hands .
Cheers arose from the audience .
“Onee-sama… is amazing”
Claire-sama sent Manarisama pa.s.sionate gaze .
Seeing this, I harbored complicated thoughts .
