A night when the moon shines in dazzle. Palettia Royal Castle, in the corner for its feast, the dressed people were interested in conversation with a gentle grin.
Todayâs feast was led by the king himself, and an invitation had been sent because there was a serious announcement. The faces of the participants were also full of leading nobles in important positions in the country.
âI have a serious announcement todayâŠâ
âIs it about that rumor?
âDisengagement between Prince Algard and the Duke of UphiliaâŠâ
âSo today you think it will be officially told by His Majesty?
âThatâs the only thing thatâs gonna throw a big banquet so farâŠâ
Everyone tries to gather information with a passion for conversation until the time of the feast. To grasp the kingâs intentions at this feast.
A small twist occurs in such a venue. Because the person who came into the venue blinded me.
Itâs Ufiria. She has been escorted to the venue by her father, Grants. So much so that I think it was just a rumor, such as breaking an engagement, that it takes peopleâs eyes away.
âIs Miss Uphilia in attendance too?â
âBut Master Algard isnât here, is he?
âSo, that rumor is stillâŠâ
Those who speak of their speculation. Uphilia doesnât talk to anyone and moves around escorted by Grants. Everyone was watching as they followed it with their eyes.
The bell rang to draw attention in that. A gaze gathers to the bell-ringing butler, who gives a brilliant bow of grace before raising his face.
His Majesty the King, and Her Royal Highness the Princess of Anisphere.
The door opens slowly. Orphans, the king, slowly walks out, and from behind him the anisphere appears.
Anyone who knows Anisphere from time to time would have been surprised. The expression is tightened naturally, sparingly exposing the beauty it originally possessed.
Hair is glossy, healthy skin is polished out and even toned. The dress that you wear is also a soothing outfit, but it is not unlikely that you will ever bury it around you.
Peacefully blooming high ridge flowers. Everyone who knows the Anisphere exhales with admiration and is blinded. Anisphere, whose eyes were slightly thin open with her gaze and slight twist, smiles gently.
Orphans and Anisphere stand as they are guided to the high seats. Those who took part in the feast, Orphans, in a position to look down on everything, opened his mouth strictly.
âMy dear ministers gathered at this feast. On this good day, there are many surprises to share with you. Listen to me now.â
Shin, the place calms down. Announcement from the King, concentrate your nerves to say you wonât divulge its contents.
âSome of you have already heard, but it was the other day. Itâs a feast to celebrate the graduation of students at the Academy of Nobility.â
I thought you were here. Everyone in the venue made themselves slightly harder. After all, what Orphans is trying to tell everyone is about an example of an engagement breakdown riot.
Though Orphans did not bow his head, he was aware that there was something slightly bitter on his tight expression. The truth is, I guess the more I want to bow my head, the more Iâm looking for remorse.
But the pain is also an instant thing. I could no longer see such a color on my immediately retightened look.
âHowever, I confess that there has been a breakdown of the engagement more than before. But make it clear that it is a vulgar rumor but does not originate in the misconduct between Algard and Uphilia. As for the breaking of Uphiliaâs engagementâŠâŠ my daughter, Anisphere. Explain it.â
âYes, Your Majesty. I hope youâll forgive me for speaking.â
âUhm, forgiveâ
Encouraged by Orphans, Anisphere, who was pulling back one step, gives a gratuity and asks permission to speak. If Orphans tells permission, Anisphere stands side by side with Orphans and looks out to everyone in the venue.
âGood mood, ladies and gentlemen. My dear sire has entrusted me with the task of explaining it. It is Anisphere. After a strong request from me to discuss this divorce, it began with Algardo.â
Once again, the field goes out of its way. Why that anisphere? and. I donât even show my face to the social world, and my duties as a royalty are barely exchanged. Occasionally, it was an assessment of a strange man popping up to crusade demons to ruin the heavens or making strange inventions.
I wonder why she talked about the engagement between Uphilia and Algard. Many people think unnaturally. An astonishing gaze therefore concentrates on the anisphere.
âAs you all know, Iâm working on a new technology called magic. In the process I was blessed with an opportunity to deepen my understanding of magic, coincidentally, with Uphilia, who excelled in the handling of magic. With that in mind, Iâve come to express my hope that Uphilia and I might be able to work together.â
Soon a gaze will come and go between Anisphere and Anisphere to the high seat where Anisphere and Orphanth will stand, to Uphilia, who was standing in the lower seat just beside it.
âBut as some of you may know, my brother, Algard and I were at a distance. I relinquished my right to inherit the throne, and that was all a consideration to push Algard as king, so as not to create any extra grudge. So I was negotiating over peopleâŠâ
âAlgard misunderstood in the process and his relationship with Uphilia became unexpected. I want everyone to know that it was the backdrop of this incident because of the overlap of factors there. I canât do anything more than say it once. This was their hope, and future decisions were made. I want to declare it from the rest of my mouth again.â
Orphans take the lead again to replace Anisphere.
âOne, I officially declare through this occasion the breaking of Algardoâs engagement with Uphiliaâ
Ooh, and a twist spreads from the nobles of the venue. Engagement broken declared by the king, his eyes hidden so that Uphilia, who had received it, lay down her eyes.
âTwo, at the request of Anisphere, Uphilia will officially be asked about assistants as research assistants in magic. It will be treated as a departure from the college. I want you to think that only books will be treated as school attendance, but graduation is fixed, and graduation is quick.â
Uphilia is involved in magic. That was, in a way, a huge shock.
The magic studied by Anisphere is not surprising, but basically its methods and research content will not be published. Royalty, no, I could say that Anisphere is in a state of monopoly.
Uphilia, one of the leading nobles in the kingdom and a man of high qualities, was officially appointed assistant. Those who try to read the meaning of it in depth never cease to follow.
âAnd three, letâs just say this is the real deal. Beginning on this date, the restoration of the right of succession to the throne of Anisphere Wynn Palettia is hereby declared. In the future, Anisphere will have the right to the second throne.â
The stirring of the venue expands to a greater extent than ever before. Everyone had a surprise look at the restoration of the right to inherit the throne, the declaration that the path to the throne had been paved again in Anisphere, which had once renounced its right to inherit in its infancy.
âUphilia, come hereâ
âExcuse me, Your Majesty.â
Courtesy, Orphans urges Uphilia to take her seat. Take the hand offered by Orphans after a grace and line up next to Orphans.
âThe breakdown of Algardâs engagement has unfortunately flown. However, in inviting Uphilia, who had contributed greatly to the cause of the country, it was decided that the restoration of Anispheric succession to the throne was desirable. It doesnât change that first place is Algard, but from now on, I want everyone to look back on Anisphereâs responsibilities as a royal family and watch her behave as she deserves. This is a complement to the Duke of Magenta family involved in the royal convenience, while at the same time demonstrating our attitude to continue to use the Duke of Magenta family as our dear ministerâ
I donât know how many times Iâm going to see it. The twist widens. Orphans raise one hand to control the noisy scene.
âI will greet you from the rest with these three declarations. The feast will be the restoration of the right to inherit the throne of Anisphere and the hope of the future prosperity of the Kingdom of Palletia. Enjoy yourselves!
The performance began with Fatherâs proclamation, and the feast began in earnest.
If the feast begins, the nobles will come to greet you in turn. I was being chased for customer service to such aristocrats. I laugh at Nico like I pasted a smile mask, and flush her home unmistakably.
There were those who tried to sneak up on you, those who appeared obviously suspicious while hiding the colours, those who called out suspiciously about what the hell they had done, and those who were not going to hide their hostility about what they were going to do.
I feel the harsh gauge in me builds up momentum. Ha, so he said heâd avoided the social world and stuff before. Iâll give it back with interest that I donât need anything to eat or dislike. Itâs a pain in the ass, so I want to put them all together and put them in line for bowling pinsâŠâŠ!
âDear Anis, your expression is getting worse.â
I am embarrassed with a whisper by Uffi, who stood next to me. I put a smile mask back on Yuffiâs point and smile with Nico.
Uffi has been beside me since the feast began. Those who speak to Uffi like that vary. Mostly, Iâm sorry about the engagement, but congratulations on the glory, and all that stuff. Hmm, I wonder if you really think from the bottom of your heart that itâs glory.
When it comes to divestiture, there was also a request from me. I donât hear any disgust that my eyes would be drawn to by the fact that I turned my back on the story. Well, maybe itâs because Iâm beside you.
(In that sense, I want to stay away from UfiâŠ)
Then the song that was playing changes. It was at the same time a signal to change from a place of discourse to a place of dance. I get a depressing sigh by accident. Finally, itâs time for a danceâŠ
Well, I donât have anyone to invite. I donât want anyone to come and invite me if I can, but I want you to stay the way you are on the wallâŠ
âPrincess Anisphere, could you dance with me for one song?
Whoa, Iâm here⊠Well, maybe fate is more Ufi than I am. Donât invite me first on this occasion. Itâs not a good idea to invite Yufi, so I guess you mean me first.
Well, I wonder who Sacrifice said to invite me to the dance. Stick a smile on it, look back and see the other personâs face.
âYes, joy,⊠withâ
Unexpectedly my words stall on my butt blush. I was grinning and my mouth was going to cramp.
Silver hair with blue, long body, but I donât get the impression that itâs unhealthy. Ice blue eyes stare at me zippily, and if you just say it by its appearance, itâs a beautiful manâs princess. The surrounding maid wonât stop, I think.
I know this guy very well. My skin developed goosebumps all at once. Why would the âhead elite of the Ministry of Magicâ invite me to dance!
âOh, Earl of Voltaire son. Thank you for inviting me.â
âI donât mind Lang, princessâ
â⊠then with Lord Langâ
You clumsy foe! and cursing inside I try to keep my smile.
Lang Voltaire. An elite nobleman of wizards working for the Ministry of Magic. The next head of the Voltaire family, a family that excels in magic and continues to produce outstanding wizards. And the same age as me. Though we donât need that in common.
Only a house that produces an elite of wizards, respects those who can handle magic and looks down on those who canât use it. Itâs like an elite painting like that. And heâs also one of those who handled my magic all over the place. I forgive you⊠no matter how many years have passed, you are the only one I forgiveâŠ!
âOkay, one songâ
âIâm honored.â
How dare you? If you asked me out, Iâd have to dance.
Thought Iâd step on it as much as I wanted, but thatâs sorry to Yufi for teaching me how to dance. Paste a smile but deflect your consciousness from the feel of your hands being focused and in touch with the dance. I still donât like it even over gloves.
â⊠I didnât expect you to regain your right to inherit the throne.â
Lang tells me in a voice that only reaches me. Besides, I smile but send a cold gaze.
âItâs only second place, itâs a spare. You wonât be on the throne.â
âHow serious are you? We have heard about Prince Algard. I see, I have no idea what His Majesty thinks.â
âYes, everything as His Majesty wills.â
âBut isnât it a little too much to surround Miss Uphilia?
⊠Ah yes, thatâs what it is, isnât it? Itâs not me, itâs Yufi, isnât it? Well, I knew.
âIf my engagement to Prince Algard was broken, would I have a chance?â
âI guess that depends on Yuffiâs heart.â
âYeah, unfortunately, Iâd really like you to take this opportunity to broaden your horizons. Her talents are too sparing to rot.â
âYeah, so it depends on what you asked me to do under me.â
âMagic, is itâ
⊠Hey, I know you tried to laugh with your nose, you rotten handsome.
Visit wuxiaworld.eu for extra chapters.
I donât like magic modoki that much. I really shouldnât stick around for a long time.
âHer talent is a miracle. Please donât let it rot. No, thatâs not what Iâm telling you right now. Heâs a leader in magic.â
âThank you for thinking about Yufi. I also look forward to her future, so I hope you will keep an eye on her.â
âYeah, Iâd like to be close, too.â
Who makes Yufi come closer to a gut-rotting typical elite thought aristocrat like you!
Lang hates magic a lot. Magic is a miracle given to you more than the world you deal with. He is noble because he can handle magic, and he thinks itâs worth it there.
So youâre looking down on me as a royal but never dealing with magic. Furthermore, since the presentation of magic science, they have been made enemies of it. Iâve even been told itâs blasphemous technology to process demonic materials into pseudo-magic.
Thatâs why this guy and I have a relationship between water and oil. But when Uffi is involved here, the story is different. Yufi is also a brilliant wizard and is even more of a Dukeâs daughter. The House of the Duke of Magenta is also highly spoken.
If theyâre going to leave a brilliant wizard behind, theyâve definitely set their sights on Uffi. Although the Counts are somewhat out of tune compared to the Dukes, angrily enough, they might say that Langâs own achievements can be matched.
⊠Well, I canât say no if Yufi tells me Lang is good. Yufi put it in my pocket once. Theyâll take it away from me. Iâm so sorry. It could be my sister, and now itâs my sisterâs turn. I need to protect you as my sisterâs replacement!
âSo now youâre me. We sincerely hope you will continue to flourish.â
âThank you, Master Langâ
Though over the gloves, I run scared thinking I was dancing with this guy holding hands.
Uh, I canât. No, you canât go dancing next in this state. I say a word to the service and then I go out to the balcony.
The outside wind is soothing and comfortable. I feel terrible at all. Well, itâs still good that I canât stand up and blame the gagger anymore. It was horrible when I started presenting magic.
â⊠I didnât even like it and couldnât use it. I would normally use it if I could.â
I wanted to use magic. Once you know that it exists, you canât give up dreaming.
If you canât use it in the usual way, in a new way. Breaking existing concepts. But I wanted to have a miracle called magic. With magic, I can make someone smile. I can smile myself. I wanted that power so that everyone would be happy.
But the reality is tough. The magic has certainly become available. But breaking down existing concepts. That was unacceptable to many. How long has it been for someone, not anymore? I made it for myself and started to wish I could do something that was going to be good for someone.
That there is a minority of people in this world who understand me. Then itâs good for the few. For all that, I decided to use my magic.
â⊠I wish I could have studied it.â
I donât want to be a king. I didnât want you to restore your right to inherit the throne. I donât want to dance or talk to them like they make fun of magic. My heart is twitching and hurting, itâs getting harsh, itâs getting muckyâŠ
âTurn them all into bowling pins after allâŠâ
âOh, Master Anis. Did you come here?â
âHih.â
Make Yufiâs voice suddenly jump on his shoulder. Turn around, there was Uffi.
Uffi moves to line up next to me, which was up to the back of the balcony.
âWere you resting here?â
âI canât do it anymore with one songâ
âThat one⊠was the son of Count Voltaire of the Ministry of Magic, wasnât he?
âOh man. He hates me a long time ago.â
â⊠yes, is itâ
Then why did you ask me out first? and. Uffi is tilting his neck. That was just trying to find out if I could rip Yuffi off from me, and I said, shut my mouth. Itâs nothing to say.
âDoesnât Uffi have to dance?
â⊠Iâm ashamed to say that Iâm sorry to have planted all that dancing on Master Anisâ
âHmm?â
â⊠touching a man is a little hard to breatheâ
âUhâŠâ
Yes, it was. Yufi had just been badly hit by Alkun. Though days have passed since then, itâs still the most recent story. Yet dancing with men seemed more painful than I thought.
I gradually notice that Yuffiâs hands are shaking slightly. Seeing Yufi like that, I took Yufiâs hand.
âLetâs dance, Uffi!
âHuh? With Master Anis, is it?
âThere arenât many people here, and I didnât know who blamed me. You donât hate dancing, do you? But youâre not, I knew it.â
â⊠are you all right?â
Let my words squeeze my eyes, and Yufi laughs small. And you hold back the hand I took.
I recognize it as consent and dance to lead Uffi. Even though itâs the opposite part of what you taught me, dancing with each other meshes. That was strange, and me and Uffi laughed face-to-face.
âThatâs funny, I canât believe itâs a dance for two womenâ
âWouldnât that be nice if you enjoyed it?
âIf your fathers see you, youâll be frightened.â
âYou just have to let me get stunned! Whatâs the value of a dance thatâs not even fun!
Take the steps and twirl around for two. Eventually the music stops. A moment of silence, until you switch to the next song.
âIf Lady Annis hadnât taken me out that day. Sometimes I think so.â
âYeah.â
âIâm sure you cried, crushed, disliked it all⊠it doesnât matter, it could have been brokenâ
âYeah.â
âI was honestly glad you said it would make me happy. Thank you for giving me a chance when everything failed, Master Anis.â
âYeah.â
âKeep it up, thank youâ
Keep up the good work. Connected hands shake hands. Grip each other to wrap it up.
My magic is the magic that makes someone smile. If everyone could smile, those little dreams would have changed shape. Young dreams grow up a little colder, narrower.
The reach is narrow. I no longer dream about the length of my hand. Thatâs why I think strongly. I wonât let go of this connected hand. This is the happiness I wanted.
Youâll have time when the boring party is over. Letâs go find out what we donât know. Letâs go see something weâve never seen before. Shape things that donât have shapes. We can do anything we want.
