Someone Else’s Lady
There was only one roo roo area was separated into an aisle
Though there were soldiers on guard, for so by the stairwell, and not in front of the room’s door
Hazlett glanced at the to the door to tear down the paper that was stuck on it
The elf glanced at it, written in a girls round handwriting were the words, “Meeting of National importance, do not eavesdrop”
The captain used a particular rhythm to know on the door Then, the sound of footsteps came from within
Surprisingly, the one to appear was the Queen She took one look at the elf and beckoned hi
The elf silently bowed, stepping into the room
The floor was covered in all sorts of notes, and on the large table thick stacks of folders were piled up
The queen returned to the desk to sit down, indicating for the elf to sit on the sofa to one side
“I saw your report, viscount” She said, “Very good work Too bad there’s only one Duke Elmond – do you think there are more vampires in the nobility? If there were a few more, then our economic crisis would be solved easily”
The elf looked at her not knowing how to reply
“Just kidding” The Queen shrugged, “Speak, you should be rewarded What do you want? Though I can’t award you with the title of duke – raising in the ranks too quickly will eezers jealous but there are still other areas we can be enerous to you, just say it”
“Actually there is one thing,” the elf replied after thinking for a moment, “the duke casted a curse on one of ician I’ic research in the country…”
“Magician?” For so she replied, “Just so I know one”
“In Elvira?”

At the award cere, undoubtedly full of kingly dignity
But sitting here now, it was as if she was a nor on the end of the pen, trying to re all sorts of facial expressions
Could this be considered a hu able to reveal a different personality according to different clothing
The elf thought about the firstwith Cain, always behind the armor, aloof, so somber as to be comparable to Hazlett, in coht then
Queen Grecia finished writing one letter and raised her head, just in ti very gently
In that moment the Queen’s heart skipped a beat, she hurriedly lowered her head again, on one hand she pretended not to notice, on the other had she continued to write, but her er on the letter
She spent longer than nor at the elf, to find that he was no longer looking in her direction
The girl released a breath of relief, at the sa a little disappointed
“One letter for the current Grand Master, the other for his disciple” She gave the sealed missive to the elf
