Vol 3 Chapter 35 (2/2)
Mainly in doly reliable
But as ere left without and land to eet a turn
The Third spoke with a slight fed up tone
『You’re way too harsh with row to resemble?』
As the Fourth’s father, the Third said that, the Fifth took over
That was usually the Fourth’s role
『Just leave it there Even if Lyle’s Mana stock increased, the First’s Skill is storing up Mana in itself every day At this point, there’s no point in trying to train hi up』
In the past…
They thought I was the type that didn’t gain Mana as I experienced Growth
Froht I was the type that gained technique through the process
(And wait, I have two arms here, so isn’t it natural for be able to use two sabres?)
It wasn’t the least bit of a wonder to me, but when I told the ancestors that…
『『『You’re the strange one here!』』』
Apparently
And in order to build up my mana, they forcefully went and expended it to the bare ainst my will
What’s more, I wasn’t even informed about it
In the end, I wasn’t a technique type, but a type where all e, I needed several times the a type
(My Skill, 【Experience】, is one that lets er quantity of experience, but it’s one that stays constantly active, so e as before)
I’ic, but as I had a lie was one of er problems
“Let’s put huntingsome information on the area In that case,would work as well…”
A voice called out to our table
“Ah, could it be Aria?”
Hearing the voice, Aria turned around
Her expression was a shocked one clearly questioning why the holder of said voice was in a place like this
“As I thought! You’re Aria Lockward, right? It’s ether many a time in the imperial capital, so I had a hunch it was you, by some chance”
The person addressing us was a slightlywoman
But her age itself wasn’t all too different from ours
If you’re asking for characteristics, they would be her ereen wavy hair that caave her a mischievous look was likely one of her charms
While carrying a mature impression with her, she was lively, and a woman that looked to have some childish parts to her… that was Miranda Circry
“Miranda? Why are you in a place like this? You’re the Circry’s eldest, are you not!?”
Aria spoke with an amazed tone
It wouldn’t be strange to find a second or third child in the city of scholars, but the eldest daughter was another story
It was a spotothers marry into the family
“We’ve got four sisters over there, so it’s fine if just two of us do as we please More i here…”
As Miranda htly sorrowful expression, Aria spoke aardly
“I arrived today Until then, I was in Dalien”
While she gave a simple explanation, she didn’t look at Miranda’s face there onwards
Seeing her attitude, Miranda gave a sardonic smile
“I’ether with Shannon, didn’t we?”
So the flow of the conversation, she was likely a friend, or Miranda’s younger sister
Aria answered with silence
“… Sorry I’ve been attending this acadeo I’ll tell you hted”
Saying that, she wrote her information on a sheet, and in place of Aria, ouldn’t accept anything, she handed it to me
“I apologize, but what is your relation to Aria?”
I should probably put it out here clearly that I’m her party member…
“She is one of Lyle-sama’s lovers”
From the side, Novem cut in
Miranda looked flabbergasted, but as I panicked to correct the hter
“Ahahaha, sorry That was a good one That Aria has a boyfriend… what’s ht you were the pretty boy type, but you’ve got soame, man”
She stuck her elbow into ht hand as she left
Before I could correct anything, it was all over
Hanging my head, I turned to Aria
“She sounded like a good person, but are you unsatisfied about so?”
Aria let out a sigh
“That’s not it She really is a good person She’s just a year older, but she’s good at looking after others, and whenever a bad rumor came up about our place, she always stuck up forafter others to a fault, you know She’s good natured, and she’ll never talk bad about anyone”
Good natured to a fault, was how Aria assessed Miranda
On her fifty cents, Novem coincided
“Perhaps she’s one whose two faces overlap No, perhaps one just good at dealing with things? Even so, I heard that a large nuht ould beone of Aria-san’s acquaintances like this”
I thought the same, but Aria seemed to be at her wit’s end
“Miranda’s on the better side But if I were to meet the others…”
She seemed depressed
I tried asking
“Co her? If she’s a good person, it would be fine to talk with her, wouldn’t it?”
As I said that, Aria gave a straightforward answer
“It’s because she’s a good person Because of that, even she started to get slander going on around her That’s why I took the initiative to distance h it was soon after that I was driven out of Centralle anyways”
It see on here
But here and noouldn’t it be fine to get along? That was my opinion
(You should treasure your friends… especially those that don’t go ahen you’re going through hard times)
As Aria had friends of the saender like I never did, I felt just a little envious
To et of affection, and not my best friend
(If you look at recent tiroup? I wonder what they’re doing now…)
I looked down at Miranda’s

In the inn, before retiring to bed
I came to the space round table known as the conference room
In the very center of the rooe blue jewel shi+ned
Around the room, six doors were installed, and those hat acted as the ancestors’ personal quarters
There were seven chairs in total
In a rooe
“Huh? Are you alone today? Where’s the Fifth?”
I aze to search for the Fifth Generation, but the Sixth gave a bitter smile
『It’s not like I’m alith my pops, you know』
The Sixth’s Skill was one that was born with the Fifth’s Skill as its premise It determined the enemies and allies within a perimeter, and even conveyed the locations of traps He was the possessor of the Skill, 【Search】
When the two Skills were used together, it generated an extraordinary effect
In one’s head, awere known on it For an ene Skill
“Then are you the one that called me?”
『Yeah』
He often agreed with the Fifth, and he was a rare find in the Walt Family History, where the father-son relationshi+p was actually good
I’ve rarely seen signs of hirandfather, the Seventh, either
With his unkeave off a wild impression, was quite docile before the Fifth
Noran to think of it as the usual
『The truth is… I know of the Circry Faht I would inform you』
“Miranda-san’s House?”
The Sixth was one with a lot of bad ru around him
Taking bribes, using his connections to the i thes
For that reason, he was known as the greatest fiend to the Walt House… but I really didn’t get that feeling from him
Of all else, the Third was
『We’ve been associated with theer sister married into their house』
That was the first I heard of so like that
No, perhaps I just never knew it, and ood terms with them
It’s just that th Generation, it was just a link froo
From the point of view of Bahnseim nobles, They were pretty much irrelevant
“So you’re saying there’s a possibility they still have ties to our House?”
『The chances are slim, but keep it in mind I don’t really want to doubt theot along with』
Having heard that, I rele fact
The Sixth had an exceedingly large nus
I al wife included He had five ladies by his side
What’s more, all five of them cleared all of the Walt Family Precepts
It’s a surprise that he went after sowas that…
“… I believe it was around thirty brothers and sisters younger than you, was it?”
『… Yeah』
We both made a questionable face
While the Fifth was definitely fareatest luster of Walt History, the individual himself held quite a dry impression
I can’t think of him as one twisted by carnal lust
“Soap between the ancestors we hear about, and the real ones is quite large at our place…”
『That’s right… it was quite a shock to me when I first heard I was the fiend of the Walt House, you know』
As I exchanged some idle banter with the Sixth, I considered the possibility of Miranda-san’s ties to my family
