Another Life

Tuesday, March 3, A.D. Pandora and the others, who had recently refrained from graduating around this time, practiced marching to graduation ceremonies. Pandora with a knife at the head, a rifle on his shoulder, walking in clean alignment, had good rhythm and an undisturbed child.

Cecily, who was guiding the march again after her parental leave, looked at the clock and stood up, clapping her hands.

"Ha, that's it for today. We're all close to graduation, so don't get distracted.

And Pandora and Faye. You two go to the Marshal's office at Coalition headquarters, like we're going to. "

I wonder what it is?

When they looked at each other and changed their clothes, they went to the office near the left, as they were told.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

This year's promotion exam, well, Viola will be the only one to get promoted. It's an easy way to get promoted from the stuff down there.

With that in mind, the left-hand side was writing the paperwork alone, and the door was knocked, and Chloe came in.

"The princess and Faye are here."

"Let me in. Chloe, tea, please."

"Okay."

On behalf of Chloe, who said so, Pandora and Faye walked in and greeted her with a smile.

"Well done, both of you...... what the fuck Faye. So much, kick ass.

Well, was this your first time in this room? Well, never mind. Sit down. "

"Ha..."

Saying so, Pandora and Fey sat on the couch prompted to close left.

Coalition Marshals Office...... You're a very limited person to put in this room, aren't you? Don't be nervous, I can't.

But you have a great amount of books. There's a book on the shelf on one side of the wall that surprises me... this is a book on coalition material, isn't it?

With that in mind, Faye looked at the room nervously, and the tea was placed before the two of them, and briefly the left and near left put the brush down and asked Faye a question.

"Well, it's finally over. I'm sorry, you kept me waiting.

Well, I asked you to come today because I wanted to ask you a few questions... did you promise to be with Yuantaro in the future?

And Faye said unto the left-hand man, when he turned red, and nodded, and the left-hand man was good.

"Right. So, when do you decide to get married or something?

"It's..."

So Faye said, having a dark face, the proximity left lit the flue.

"Well Faye, too, you know, the Luthai Empire has an identity system and can only marry people in the same capacity. Yuantaro is Shinano's guardian, Takahashi's elder, and Maida's son... you know what this means?

Pandora glanced to the left and urged him to say it quickly.

Did you feel that or did you decide to get to the point quickly?

"Well, this identity system has quite a way out, too. Adoption by some martial artist is unrestricted... well, no one is good, unless our Lord admits it.

If you are adopted by the Martial Family, there will be no more walls of identity... there, Faye. Would you like to be adopted by the Sakura family and marry Yuantaro?

The near-left word was one that Faye could not understand, and the near-left sincerity was not known.

"Duh, why, so far to me..."

So he said to Faye, who was confused, and to the left and the near, he pointed.

"How can you get that far? This is an adult circumstance, a political marriage.

The Maida family says that I am close to Yuanta, but Shinano's leading name means Nakasendo. It leads from Kanto to Kyoto in the Luthai Empire, and there is a territory near an important street. Besides, the strength of the Maida family is enough for me to admit that it is natural to enter into a marital relationship with the Maida family.

Well, if Faye doesn't agree, Pandora here will marry Gentaro. "

"Ah!? What's that? For the first time, I've heard it!

And he answered Pandora with a smile.

"That's right. That's the first time you've said that.

Well, there you go, there are various adult circumstances, and the Sakura family wants to send someone out of the Sakura family to Yuantaro, one of the Maida family's sons, to enter into a marital relationship with the Maida family. Faye is dating Yuantaro and promises the future, but there is a wall of identity… I think our mutual interests are in agreement?

Faye did not have to think, but answered immediately to the nearest left word.

"Please, take me as the adopted daughter of the Sakura family!

Near left to the word, he said with a smile, dropping the spark of the flue.

"You're welcome, Faye. From today on, Sakura's mansion is your home.

The important thing about the Sakura family is that they take care of it. In this case, who's going to be your sister?

"Of course, it would be me."

"Huh!?"

Even as a matter of course, when Pandora said, Faye was surprised and a strange silence flowed, and Pandora said she would have a sip of tea.

"The ranking of the Sakura family changes with its strength... so why don't you say I'm your sister?

Me, I've never heard of it before... let's keep it deep down.

Wait a minute, that logic would mean I'm the weakest of all! But just up above Faye, well, what if it's good?

There was an uncomfortable face, Faye, in the near left gaze that he thought so.

Afterwards, Faye had dinner with Pandora and the entire Sakura family, enjoying a lively meal for a long time, and it was time to be generous in the living room. The night he took over after Pandora and became student chairman said, knowing, with a little devil-like face, holding Jiro Fujiro, who slept.

"With that said, from which did you confess Senior Faye or Senior Maida?

And Faye said unto the word, Bright red in his face.

"Huh!?... Fine, that's..."

Little night, was the appearance pleasant or stuffed in fay.

"No, you can't. The Ruthai Empire has a saying that if you fall in love, you lose.

Well, even if you're not in love more than Senior Faye, Senior Faye could be unhappy. "

"Unfortunately, it's such a big deal..."

It was Faye who had trouble saying so, but it was Pandora who made the bomb statement.

"Of course, it's up to Yuantaro to confess first. The place is Fushimi Castle, at the Fushimi fireworks show, just the two of us, watching the fireworks, right?

Well, I officially replied that it was the harvest festival that followed. Faye, two people tied under a big tree at the harvest festival, believed the legend that they would be happy forever, and even though they were in love with Gentaro, they extended their reply until that day. "

To the words, not only the little ones, but Iris and the others cheered yellow, and Faye turned bright red to his ears, and looked down.

But here, Fufu Faye noticed a serious question.

"Wait a minute! How does Pandora know so much!

"Yabba......"

Unexpectedly, Faye stuffed Pandora, who defied her gaze, and a bright laugh was ringing in the living room.

Also, now our house is busy. With that in mind, when the left-hand side tried to put the liquor into the cup, Moyer poured it into the left-hand side cup with virtue.

"Thank you, Moya."

So he said, and stroked his head. Near left, when Moyer turned his uncontrolled smile, Near left, he put Moyer on his lap, and smiled, and drank.

"It's been a long time, this house's been busy too"

So Busty said while placing the new virtue in front of Moyer, convinced him that he thought the same thing about the left and the near.

"Right...... but when they grow up, we'll have quiet days back again. Now, enjoy this busy time."

"Right. I say kids grow up fast.

Speaking of children, when I went to the general district before, people at the service said, "Recently, there have been more kidnappings targeting women."

And it came to pass, that his hand with the cup near the left stopped moving, and his eyes sharpened, and he said:

"No way, Northern Church again?

"I don't know, but Archbishop Mark wouldn't be so stupid."

Am I thinking a little too much... Archbishop Mark feels like a slightly belly-up yard former monk, and he'll be fine.

"So is that. Well, let Jack gather the information and flush it out to the service."

"Yes, I'm in awe"

Busty replied with a smile.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

Friday, March 13, East Calendar. The day was marked by a graduation ceremony in the Department of Clerics and Magic, as well as the Department of Knights, known as the Allied Trilogy, after the Central General School.

In keeping with the music of the orchestra, the path leading to the arena, in the courtesy of the military uniform, the children's undisturbed march, the eyes of the parents of those called by the national guest and the students were shining, and at the end, when Pandora and the others appeared, there was a loud cheer from the students in the general seats.

We devised ourselves, two snakes entangled in swords, with a large regimental flag, Shirley at the head, Pandora with a knife, a rifle, Faye and the others marching undisturbed, headed in the direction of the VIP seat, with a knife that was snug on his shoulder. The moment Pandora shook down to the bottom right, he saluted as he marched in unison.

To that appearance, cheers arose from the surroundings, and those in the VIP seat, saying that everyone had lost their words and was seen, the beat that was in the VIP seat spoke to the nearest left next door.

"Marshal, even though your identity, your gender and your country are falling apart, it's so wonderful that you don't know what to say to be united so far"

"Thank you. I'll sit down. All of this, Cecily and my family, and His Majesty the Demon of Freia, will sit together as a result of our efforts."

"... right. I didn't know Cecily had this kind of guidance."

That said the beat had a tight face as to where he was proud.

Eventually, the marches of the students entered the arena, and when school people and military officials came to the VIP seats and parents sat in the audience seats, the principal, the aunt, gave Pandora, the student representative, a diploma to begin greeting, Freia's tense greeting, and the greeting of the directors of the three stations of the coalition, and finally the closest greeting to the left.

Left and near looked at the students and greeted them with a smile, but the contents were somewhat harsh.

"I was introduced earlier, Minister Kiyoshi Sakuranai, a coalition marshal. Happy graduation, everyone.

But beyond that, you may be assigned to separate units, separate Knights in a year's time, in action, and you may never see your neighbors or friends again. But that's more natural than being a soldier, and that's what everyone's been through.

So why are you here, knowing that will happen... it will be to protect those who really want to protect it or the country. I want you to engrave that into your heart.

Those who are here are friends who have been laughing and crying together for the past three years, so when you are in trouble, remember that and do not hesitate to rely on your friends.

Well, for a very long time, I don't like it either, so this concludes my greeting.

One last time, congratulations on graduation. "

It was then that the words were applauded from within the venue and the teacher approached him to say "graduate exit". When Pandora popped up and stood on the railing of the VIP table, she screamed, ignoring the confused teachers and those trying to stop them.

"Bye, guys. Happy graduation!"

"Congratulations!"

That said, the moment Pandora jumped from the railings and threw the hat upwards, the students threw the hat at the same time, and it was a beautiful sight, as if it represented the joy of the students.

Pandora, with all the graduates, you showed up. Well, it's graduation today, and it looks like fun, and it'll be good.

With that in mind, he was smiling and watching the sight.

Thereafter, a graduation party with student and parent participation was held under the auspices of the coalition forces at a mansion near the left, where graduates attended by courtesy clothes.

Out of a sense of emancipation that graduated safely, or in an uplifting venue, the left-hand side secretly summoned Pandora and Faye and took them to the study.

Faye was anxious, but as he followed him near left, Testa was kneeling where he entered the study.

"Testa, who's ready?

"I will sit perfectly"

When Testa said that, pulling the book on the bookshelf, the bookshelf moved quietly and a hidden passage emerged.

"What's here..."

And he said unto Faye, Unexpectedly, Testa bowed her head.

"I will sit at the Sakura family treasure trove. Come on, this way."

And it came to pass, after the tester, that when the left-handed men went down, and the light moss was bright as day, the tester opened the large door, and knelt down, saying,

"Okay, take your time"

Let's go, then.

So when the leftists went in, Faye was surprised at the interior decorated as if it were an exhibit, but Pandora realized that there was one.

"Is that it? I have armor at my place... what, these feathers?

To his surprise, Pandora's eyes were filled with silver even with a white bearded face, beautiful black everywhere, a armor called Nanban Torso's worldly foot, and a golden flying feather butterfly on his front stand. And the feathers were the black-left and near-left feathers.

"It's a graduation from me. My name is Hon Silver Foil Sauce Nanban, but I think I should change it to your taste.

Skills are Physical Defense, Magic Defense, and Speed Up. I barely feel the weight, and it'll be just fine for you.

Formation feathers are the formations of my reigning emperor. Skills include riding, magic defense, luck, and magic barriers.

I can't seem to use the magic barrier because I'm not a woman, and you can. "

This armor would be the armor I was telling God to give to me when I was an angel and Reaper. It's not a gift... well, Formation Feathers is a real gift, and I'll forgive you this time.

With that in mind, Pandora said it would take a long time to get to the left.

"Thank you, stupid father"

"That idiot father would be unnecessary."

The left proximity stroking Pandora's head with that said was the figure of a parent and child, as painted, who seemed very happy and so did Pandora who could be stroked.

Good. I want a father, too, like your Excellency... so if you think about it, now your Excellency is my father!

With that in mind, Faye discovered a new showcase in her eyes as she laid her hands on her head.

Whose is it?

When he thought so, he said with a smile, holding Pandora's shoulder.

"Faye. That's Faye's space."

"Huh?"

And it came to pass, when Faye saw the place where he had been told, that in the pitch-black foot, in front of the three moons of gold, lay a black helmet with a round ring of silver, and a Japanese sword.

"This is Faye's armor. Black Knights' (Black Knights) black color, they made it.

Skills include physical and magical defenses. The producer is Calicia Reinbach… "

It was when he said so, near left. Faye was astonished when he vandalized his voice.

"Rheinbach is from that Dwalbuff royalty!?"

With that said, is the Rheinbach martial arts quite a luxury item? I forgot to ask Calicia to make it all the time.

"Yes, that Rheinbach. Because of that, my cross spear and Shirley's cross spear are the ones that Rheinbach made.

The knife was certainly made by its Calicia Reinbach and by a blacksmith in the concurrent peace of the Luthai Empire. I only have the skill in mind, but the sculpture is carved all over me and colored with my blood.

With this guy, he'll be an angel, but whatever it is, he can kill you. Anyway, my blood seems poisonous to angels. "

With that said, and listening to the laughing left-hand voice, Faye slowly took the knife and pulled it out, as the left-hand man said, a dragon was carved into his body, and the colour was truly of blood.

This... is really blood, it's colored. Your Excellency is joking about that, but does this sword mean it's a testament to my daughter?

Faye, who thought so, gratefully held the knife, bowed his head to the left and thanked him.

"Thank you, I'll sit down. I will cherish this sword for the rest of my life!

"I'm glad you're happy. It's true that the Black Knights can't wear a helmet with a figurine unless they're more than a troop leader, so you should usually leave it here and wear that armor when you're a troop leader.

If you want to come to this room, you can always tell Testa to let me in... and you can always call me your father. "

So Faye said with a smile, near the left, saying with a light.

"Thank you. I will sit... oh... my lord. Sorry, after a little practice."

"Right, you don't have to, it's always good. Now, if we don't get back to the good stuff, Yuantaro will be jealous."

With that said, near left, he stroked Fei's head shabby and headed for the exit, and Fei was rushing his hair right, but his face looked somewhere happy.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

The day after the graduation party, Pandora and Shirley had packed their bags and cleaned the room in order to leave the dorm.

After three years of living in this room, if he had to leave, Shirley came to speak to Pandora, feeling a little lonely.

"I... am in the room with Pandora, and I think it's really good."

"Why, like this is the last time, it is. We'll be in the Knights together next month."

So Pandora smiled, but Shirley said to Pandora a little hard to say.

"Hey, Pandora... can't I just go into Fort Alum's quarters first?

The meeting at Fort Alm began on March 30th, during which time the dates were set as a period for their own homecoming, but Shirley said she didn't want to go home. I thought something had happened and Pandora asked Shirley a question.

"... With that said, Shirley's father was here for the graduation party, too, right? Anything wrong?

"Yep... I let him go to school for three years, so he told me to go home and get married. They're over thirty years older than me, and they don't have a good reputation for women, Count Anel Lame.

My father's mistress gave birth to my brother the other day, and if he returns, he will surely use me as a tool...... Pandora?

It was to Shirley, who almost cried but complained to Pandora about her heart, that Pandora held her gently from behind and said in Shirley's ear.

"Okay, so Shirley. I'll help you."

To the words, Shirley grabbed Pandora's arm, and just nodded, Pandora said to Shirley, smiling.

"Fort Alm's quarters are not ready yet, but you should come to my parents' house. That way, I won't be free because Shirley's parents can't help me, Faye's coming, and I have little ones to help me.

Besides, who do you think I am, assuming I'm the leader of the Knights, Raven? I know Queen Irina of the Serenity Empire, and Princess Liliana of the Kingdom of Salz, and the Empress of the Ruthai Empire is told to tell me as soon as something happens. "

And it came to pass in the words of Pandora that Shirley's face, which had been a cloud, was brightened, and he said unto Pandora.

"Pandora, isn't that all, like, someone's power?

"... so is that. But, well, the details are good. Anything you can use is from the Sakura family."

"Really, where you said that, Your Excellency, you look just like... Hey, Pandora. Next, I hope the people who come into this room can be best friends, just like us."

So Pandora said to Shirley, as she had come up with something, that Pandora was saddened by the fact that she was looking over at the cleaned up room.

"Hey, Shirley. Let's carve a message somewhere for the next person to come in."

"Huh? But that's just it, you won't be able to. After we leave, the teachers check each room. Graffiti will soon be erased."

"It's okay. You just have to carve it in the back of your desk so you don't find out.

People like us who work evil will soon find out when the next time they come. "

"Bad Wisdom works only for you, not for us... but I got on with it"

So Shirley smiled, and with Pandora he carved a message behind his desk.

Eventually, the two of them, Faye and the three of them, headed for the mansion near the left, and Cecily entered Pandora and Shirley's room that evening for the final check of the room.

Finally, is that the last time in this room? Well, don't worry, there was an honor student Shirley here.

With that in mind, Cecily marked the paper on the checked item, and when she marked the last item, the study desk caught her eye.

No matter how many honors Shirley has, that Pandora is with him... I don't think so...

So Cecily approached the study desk, looked down, and looked behind the desk, and there was a letter carved.

Usually it was Cecily who was angry or repaired immediately, but the moment he saw the letter, he became a very gentle face, and when he stood up, he left the room as it was.

[Welcome to the girls' dorm at Central General School. As we did, I'm sure you'll be best friends and have a great school life. Shirley Nelson]

[Welcome to the girls' dorm at Central General School. The ladies in this room are obliged to be best friends and enjoy school life, just like we did. Sakura Left Gatekeeper Pandora]

Later in life, those who entered this room in the women's dormitory were to carve messages to their juniors one after the other, which became a tradition in the women's dormitory.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

Around that time, situated on the north side of Port City, between the arrays of Shirley's parents, Count Lame territory, Port Town Saltaire. Port City flourished as a military port, but Saltaire flourished as a trading port, in trade from the Ruthai Empire and the Pespard Dynasty.

On its walls, in a large enclosed city, a small, high-nosed man, in a tiny office of a castle in the shape of a protrusion into the sea, was working alone. And when he heard the knock of the door according to the sound of the windows that the sea breeze was blowing, he said, without moving his gaze from the book of the table.

"Get in."

Sir, Lieutenant Yun Naosheng Kurashiki is here.

To the maid who came in saying so, when the Count gave instructions simply by moving his fingers, the maid came out and instead an old military man with gray hair came in.

"Long time no see, Count Lame. How can I help you today?

And the earl laid down his pen, and looked upon the carpenter, and said unto him,

"Lieutenant, I'm sorry to call you so far away today. You want something to drink?

"No, if you come with a space transfer, from the alum, it's fine because it's a moment. More than that, I would appreciate it if you could get down to business, even if you look busy."

The Earl looked down at Hun and spoke to the woodworker.

"Shall we get down to business now? Viscount Nelson offered me to marry my daughter."

"Oh! Congratulations."

And when the earl lifted up his hand to control the woodworking that bowed his head, he continued his conversation.

"So, to that celebration, we want to gather the nobles together for an example feast. So, I want the lieutenant to triple the number of women he dedicates to me.

Well, ask the bride to join us at that feast. In front of his father, look at his daughter, who shows her painful face, Nelson, I wonder what she looks like. "

So he said to the grinning Earl, that the carpenter, averse with his heart, did not put the matter on the table.

"Recently, those at the service are also getting tighter security, which is honestly difficult. Even though it's hard to gather the usual number of people... what if I say no?

"That's better to remember who's letting you use the harbor to do it.

Well, that's why I'm not saying this one's free either. Give me two commercial ships in the Fresian kingdom and an elf slave.

If you are a ship of the Kingdom of Fresia, your legs are fast, and you are resistant to the outer sea. I think it's a breakdown condition. "

Indeed, the ships of the Fresian kingdom are famous for their fast legs. That reduces the chance of encountering pirate victimization, which is said to be common lately.

Besides, I hear there are more loads that can be carried than the ships of the Luthai Empire. Riding an invitation here is a stone.

"Ok...... but just triple the number is tough right now. At least six months is a period. If you don't take it, you can't handle it."

And the earl laid his hand upon his chin, and thought for a while, saying,

"Hum...... sure, that was an unscrupulous order. But I can't even stop this person from talking about it.

There it is. Three months, I'll give you three months. In the meantime, get ready... can you? If you can't, you might not be able to use the port in the future. "

Look at your feet, you perverted nobleman. But to carry it in a space transfer, I can't carry that mass because I can't get the Devil's Pill.

Regrettably, I have to listen to this perverted nobleman... Indeed, Mr. and Mrs. Willow were drowning their daughters. You can take my daughter hostage, kill both of them, and lay all that sin on this perverted nobleman.

The time for decision is near, a merchant ship in the kingdom of Fresia, send it to your home country a few times and you won't have a problem.

"Okay, that would be good on that condition. Then by July, we will send fifteen women this way. Do as you always do."

And the earl laughed at the words.

"Good reply. I'll be waiting, my lieutenant."

And it came to pass, that when the carpenter held the hand of the earl, he put on his cap, and gave thanks, and left the room behind.

Totally speaking of the continent, of the empire, of all nobles everywhere in desire... but I sympathize with the daughter of Viscount Nelson, who dowries such a count, even though it has nothing to do with it.

With that in mind, the woodworkers used the space transfer and went back to the village of Alm.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

That night, Nariya, a former imperial capital of the Serenity Empire. In the basement of the cathedral of the Northern Church, since the discovery of the dungeon, it had been transitioned to Kingsbury and many had left Nariya to become an abandoned capital, not an imperial capital that had once shown its bustle.

Nariya Cathedral, formerly the headquarters of the Serenity Diocese of the Northern Church, but now focused on the efficacy of its demonic stones, by Emperor Lannis, whose dungeons were now under control by the coalition forces, as mines for demonic stone mining, while mining was underway, crusading the demons that had emerged.

In that dim dungeon, a man dressed as a Yin Yang master and a black fox dressed as a child were walking towards the entrance to the dungeon. He was the boss of Nariya's dungeon, Gao Ming of the earth gate, and the summer worm of the ceremonial god.

"Hey, you! Where'd you come from? This place is off-limits to ordinary people!

Thus said Summer Bug to the soldiers on the lookout, as if they were frightened.

"Dear Gao Ming, didn't you lose your arm? You've been noticed, even though you have an invisible bond."

"Summer bugs, you're tough. When you say invisible junctions, they're not perfect.

This is how the occasional, highly magical and tolerant find out. "

And when they saw the two men of the guard, behaving as if they were not, they said, with exasperation, to the guns.

"Where did you come from, I hear! If you move any further, we'll fire!

Then said Gao Ming to the military men that poked the musket gun, and smiled with a red eye.

"Where did you come from? It's at the entrance. Because I'm a colonel of the coalition.

The inspection of this dungeon is over. Today, I'm going home like this, okay?

And the men of the army said with their eyes blank, as if they had been hypnotized.

"... Yes, of course. Excuse me, Colonel."

"Yes, your hard work"

With that said fingertip, he retreated from the musket gun and tried to leave. When Gao Ming stopped as if he remembered something, he looked back and asked the military man a question.

"Yes, I am a top-secret operation, a little far away, neglected by recent circumstances. Haven't you ever heard of Yanagi Hyogo?

"... you mean Major Yoo Seong. He is an elder of the Sakura family, usually in the capital of the Luthai Empire, where he lives with his family, but often goes to Lake City to put on sword archery."

"With my family...... with Pearl, do you live there?

"... Yes. Marshal Sakura's eldest daughter, Joo, and your two sons, Mira, are with you."

And Gao Ming smiled at the words, and said unto the summer worm,

"Did you hear that, Summer Bug? I told that Hyogo and Pearl they were kids.

Besides, you said cool to me then, "I'm going to the continent," and you're back in the empire, you laugh. But the daughter of the Hyogo... if she looked like the Hyogo, she'd never be hot. "

"Master Gao Ming, that would be rude. Mr. Hyogo was a good man, so he became a man's woman."

"... Summer Bug, I'm not complimenting you at all. Rather demeaning, I suppose.

But well, why don't we go back to the Luthai Empire? I have to see the Emperor, too. Oh, yeah, you can go back to your place now. "

Gao Ming, who said so, and the Summer Bug and I, left Nariya Cathedral, headed for the Ruthai Empire on a spatial transfer.
