Love Letter From The Future

569 – 7. Jealousy is my strength (69)

“No, you bastard?”

Is it because he was hit hard?

Senior Elsie immediately lowered her posture and began to show hostility towards me. She looked like if she had a tail, she would have held it up stiffly in a sense of alert.

However, the woman’s anger did not lead to violence.

It wasn’t long before Elsie-senpai picked her up and burst into laughter, releasing her strength.

The girl said with a sneer.

“So you?”

It was a short question, but no question pierced my heart more sharply than this.

Involuntarily, I was moved to tears and tried to voice my objection.

“What am I…… !”

“You were also a car? Seeing that this body is still mine.”

It was useless.

In the end, after mumbling for a while, I had no choice but to let out a deep sigh.

It was as he said.

I failed to convince senior Elsie. I don’t know if it’s an illusion summoned by my subconscious, or if it’s the personality of my fiancé who really escaped to a place deep in my heart.

As a result, there was no change in the fact that they were kicked out.

Soon after, my expression became gloomy like the sky in the rainy season. Senior Elsie was no exception to this, so the place where the two of us were standing began to give off a gloomy atmosphere unique to a man and woman who had lost heart.

It was a fight that only hurt.

Moreover, there was one more character who created a heavy atmosphere.

“Ha, you can… can do, can do… Hal Shu, hehehe!”

At that slight moaning, Elsie-senpai and I both looked somewhere at the same time.

There stood Shien, who was clearly talking to himself with a nervous look on his face. The cold sweat that formed on the bone and the wavering eyes that could not catch the direction indirectly revealed the feeling.

Until I bit my tongue at the end.

It was a scene that reminded me of Seria. Shien seemed to be in so much pain that her tears started flowing, so she wiped her eyes with her sleeve a couple of times.

Elsie’s impression of seeing this was simple.

Ha, windy laughter.

“That, can I use it in real combat? Are you saying you’re a princess or not? It’s obvious that you grew up.”

“Once upon a time, she experienced a real battle… ….”

“Was it like that then?”

Instead of answering, I exercised my right to remain silent.

The princess’s only actual combat experience was a fierce battle with elves in the north.

At that time, the princess couldn’t fulfill her role because she was vomiting. Even this time, there was no talent left to replace her princess.

The longer my silence went on, the narrower Elsie’s eyes narrowed. I couldn’t overcome her, and in the end I had no choice but to let out her sigh mixed with a sigh.

“You can’t do otherwise… ….”

This was the reality that faced us.

Vampires have installed barrier cores throughout the academy. As with the previous encounter with the vampire, there was no chance of winning unless this barrier was broken.

Didn’t even that ‘swordsmith’ achieve a hundred middle ground with a vampire?

At least three people were needed to destroy it. And the great witch had to keep the vampire in check, and in the end, only three talents remained.

It was just me, senior Elsie, and the princess with the ‘dragon’s eye’.

It was a fact that could not be denied even if one wanted to deny it.

Even senior Elsie, who was dumped by her boyfriend and got twisted, didn’t say a word of refutation. It was only that Elsie-senpai covered her face with her palm and let out her lamentation.

“f*cked, really… ….”

Unexpectedly, Elsie’s despair didn’t last long.

A light hitting sound that resonates with a click.

“Ouch!”

Soon after, senior Elsie had to let out a short scream while clutching at the top of her head. It was a blow so strong that the cone hat dented, so it was a reasonable reaction.

But if there was one thing that left a deep impression on me, it was the weapon that struck senior Elsie in the head.

Gem pipe.

The acrid smell of medicine tickled the tip of my nose. There was only one person in the academy who was worthy of carrying such an item.

One of the only three Masters on the continent, the ‘Great Witch’.

The Absolute in the form of a small girl blew out a cigarette and said, Whoa.

“Tsk tsk, with a talking cod… Can’t you refine your language a bit more?”

Who can resist that severe scolding?

Only people with swollen walls were worth trying. And unfortunately, Elsie-senpai was one of those who rarely met that condition.

“Ha, what does a hag care about…… !”

Of course, even that had its limitations.

As the gaze of the great witch became fierce, Elsie-senpai sighed and avoided her gaze. She was this way and that way, she was her body that had been a disciple of the Archwitch for years, so it would be difficult to raise her voice to her master.

Refreshing her mood, the great witch spoke in a calm tone.

“Come on, stop crying too much. If we can’t stop it anyway, tens of thousands of people will be killed and injured, so what’s the point of even trying?”

“That is so comforting… ….”

Despite my sighing voice, the Archwitch only tapped me on the shoulder a few times, saying, “Isn’t that right?”

The Archwitch’s mysterious gaze then turned to my eyes.

“Why did it look so hopeless?”

“To be honest… ….”

“I heard you wandered around all day yesterday.”

I shut my mouth at that one word.

Did you know? Hey, if the High Witch made up her mind and tried to figure out my trend, there was no way she could stop her.

The archwitch continued to ask her questions with an expression that still did not know what she was thinking.

“Where did you go and who did you meet?”

It was an opponent that could not be fooled anyway.

The truth spewed out of my mouth after a moment of hesitation.

“Senior Delphine, who remained in the north, and Emma at the workshop…….”

“What are you up to?”

Silence again.

As I tried to avoid my gaze, the High Witch shook her head as if she knew that.

“Yeah, what… there must be a situation How many miracles have you performed so far?”

I couldn’t leave a reliable answer in the end.

Nevertheless, a small palm tapped on my shoulder and passed by.

“…… Don’t believe me.”

I couldn’t say that I didn’t believe it now.

However, I felt that the archwitch’s words somehow contained heavy sincerity. It’s not something I said out of a show or something I couldn’t help it, but it has a deeper meaning.

Of course, it could have been an illusion. I wasn’t quick-witted.

In the end, all I could come up with was a commonplace excuse.

“I did my best.”

The High Witch shook her head and she took her steps again.

Maybe it means that I will trust and entrust whatever I do now.

The next person the archwitch spoke to was the youngest member of her party and her greatest weakness.

“Princess Shien.”

“Yes, four! That, great, great witch…… ?”

The body of the girl who had been muttering with her head bowed in her alone body jumped into her straight posture. Her reflexes were swift, as if struck by lightning.

It looked like this even though I was just talking to him. It was obvious how nervous this girl must be without even looking inside her.

Just like that, me and Elsie-senpai’s eyes turn dark.

The Archwitch spoke her unexpected words.

“Dragon blood?”

“That, so… that, that… Well, it’s sealed now, so it’s not that strong…….”

The princess seemed to have lost her characteristic timidity, and she began to stutter her excuses. By the time she lost her words, she was crying and she even looked at me.

There was nothing I could do to help.

Above all, the archwitch seemed to have no intention of blaming her Shien. It meant that she didn’t even need help in the first place.

She let out the soft breath of a woman who had been searching for her truth for hundreds of years.

“The dragon is the ancestor of all sorcery.”

It was a fact that anyone involved in magic knew.

No, it was one of the common sense not only mages but everyone on the continent knew. There was no one who did not know the myth of creation, the Great War of Gods, and the legend about dragons.

In particular, the dragon was deeply related to the founding story of the empire. As a subject of the empire and a member of the imperial family, there was no way the princess was unaware of that fact.

Nevertheless, the princess froze and stiffened her body.

It was because the archwitch’s eyes were calm. As if she was handing out important advice.

“Dragons are different from humans. Humans can only manipulate one element, but they are said to have manipulated every element in the world at will.”

What is the reason the archwitch suddenly brings up an old story?

I couldn’t guess, but Shien started to light up her eyes as if she noticed something. It was an unbelievably quick change of attitude.

And then, a voice swelled with anticipation.

“Well then, maybe I…… ?”

“No, it won’t work. Aren’t you a dragon?”

Of course, it was just a fantasy.

The princess’ shoulders fell again at the archwitch’s firm reply. Her discouraged appearance resembled a plant that had not seen sunlight for days.

Seeing that, the Archwitch let out a faint laugh. Like a bad boy about to be teased.

However, as if her words were not yet finished, she exhaled her cigarette smoke once, and her woman’s lips began to open again.

“Don’t be too discouraged. That’s because the dragon’s blood has infinite possibilities… Also, just in case If you become my disciple, you might be able to handle two or three elements.”

The infinite possibilities of ‘dragon’s blood’.

Come to think of it, the man from the future also left me these words. I think we’ve talked about the ‘hidden power of dragon blood characters’ before.

Sien also seemed to be interested in the archwitch’s remarks. However, the part that I paid attention to was different.

The girl who clenched her tiny fists couldn’t contain her excitement and asked.

From noble mtl dot com

“Are you accepting me as a disciple?”

“Well… I don’t know, so if you’re really curious, ask him.”

That sullen remark was enough. For a girl who was very nervous to recover her energy.

Hey, the chance to become a disciple of the Archwitch isn’t common.

As a wizard, it was natural that I didn’t want to miss that opportunity. Although I couldn’t meet the princess’ gaze.

It was because the conversation I had with Vilteon kept getting stuck in my heart.

A dragon can never be happy.

Because it’s so strong, I can’t allow anyone to be by its side.

There were only a few people who could walk such a path.

Does the princess really want to be one of them?

It was around the time I was thinking about so many things.

“Now, now. Everyone pay attention.”

The sound of clapping hands awakened my spirit.

Of course, the epicenter was the Archwitch. Fuuu, the cigarette smoke he exhaled instantly colored his vision white.

“Our strategy is simple. Let’s split up, find the core of the barrier and destroy it. And when I give a signal, they attack the vampires all at once.”

It was a simple, plain, and inexplicable plan.

Since it was something I had known from a long time ago, no one complained now. I was the only one who raised my hand and raised a question.

“What about Seriana Celine? Or, the student who became a member of the vampire family?”

“What should I do?”

The sunken eyes.

The deeply sunken gaze had a sense of intimidation in itself. Facing the archwitch’s pale green pupils, my body froze, even for an instant.

What is the intention?

However, these were the words he had already spoken. After hesitating for a moment, I finally spoke my true intentions.
