Chapter 23: Garcia Apprentice
~
"Meet my sister. Her name is Amanda."
"Please to meet you, Amanda. My name is Raul, Raul Evergreen."
"Immediately!?"
"S-Sire, I don't think you should call someone's name immediately after hearing it. Isn't common sense to call out their titles and be polite about it first?"
"… Miri, it's useless. I've given up already."
Oi, I'm not that useless! Wife why are you given up on me already?
"Pfft… Mr. Raul, you are quite an entertainer. General Anderson, I didn't know you do have some talent in becoming a comedian."
"P-Princess we aren't doing any skit."
"S-Sis… Anyway, as you can see she is quite a weird girl herself. You could compete with her Raul."
"M-Mou… Eliza, you shouldn't say that to my future husband."
"Sis, please remember it is only temporarily till the duke release the pressure from our father."
"From what I can guess, the moment he steps out from the palace there's surely troubles that will accompany us."
"Alright never mind sister, let me marry him myself."
"Eliza, you love him?"
"No, at least I could kill him myself if I couldn't contain his troubling personality."
What… Her personality is much worse though.
"Princess, Raul is saying that…"
Shana wanted to be helpful and tried voicing out my inner thoughts but was immediately turned down by Eliza.
"I know, shut up for once will ya?"
"Pfft… Eliza, I thought you had become a quiet and violent girl. It seems you still have that childish personality within you."
"Not c-childish…"
"She becomes a violent girl though…"
"HUH!?"
Turning around, Emelia was dragged out of the room by Shana and Miri.
"Now, please excuse me, Raul don't f*ck it up."
What do you mean f*ck it up? What the heck am I supposed to do when you are locking me up alone with a girl this beautiful?
"... Should I pounce on you, Amanda?"
"Pfft… You are such a funny man Raul. Though I didn't expect you would be willing to marry me."
"Come to think of it, why aren't you married? I assume you should already have a child of your own."
"All of the people that I am interested immediately run away after one date."
What the heck did you do to them? They ran even though you are the princess? I wonder what happens to them.
"I didn't manage to find them the next day or ever. My father told me that they have gone on a long journey."
They were killed!? Don't tell me. Is the king soft on Amanda while being strict on his other two children?
"My sister didn't like how the man easily judges me thus she gone to the military to protect me."
Isn't this more worst than what I've thought!? My concept of having the sister being the mature and the one that usually controls the royalty is slowly deteriorating. She is the most spoil one!?
"Hmm… I guess I understand mostly what's happening."
No, I'm kidding. I don't know what to say. Anyway, I am slowly terrified of the reason why everyone fears her.
"You truly understand!? Really!?"
"Yes… Yes"
If I don't, I might be killed off like the rest of the man that you had to meet up. I was starting to sweat bricks even though the room is cold.
"M-May I know what's the reason that is making everyone scared of you?"
"I'm… I'm…"
"...…"
Get it over with man. You are making me nervous as if I am waiting for my exam results.
"I am the apprentice of Garcis."
"Hmm"
"?? Raul, I am the apprentice of Garcis."
"Why are you repeating yourself?"
"Because you aren't showing the reaction that I wanted to see…"
"… What kind?"
"You should be panicking and terrified of me. One of the guys even peed in his pants."
"Why are they scared of you?"
"Because I am the apprentice of Garcis."
"Oi! Can you stop repeating that sentence?"
"... Muu… Fine. I'm the one that created all of the magic circles that you see in the palace."
Oh yeah, I wanted to meet up with the apprentice of Garcis. I didn't expect the apprentice would be the first princess of the Gwendal Kingdom. That is unexpected. I approached and put both of my hand on each of her shoulder.
"Fu-ey?"
"Amanda! I need your help!"
"What kind?"
"Let's make a magic circle that will kill my enemy!"
"Y-Your enemy?"
"Those horny mosquitoes!"
"Ohhh! But I've created this cold atmosphere. It is also designed to force out any insects that tried to get in."
"Yes, this is incredible!"
"R-Really? This is the first time I am being praised for creating one. Most of the people were terrified because of my powers."
"Huh? Alright don't care about them, let's try making a new type of weapon, not just to force out. We should be able to kill the mosquito with this!"
"How!? How!?"
"How about putting your magic circle on a weapon or wand?"
"I tried it before, even in mithril but the user would get tired out easily as they need to insert two times their magic power. Furthermore, the magic circle would need to be big enough, but the weapon, on the other hand, might be too heavy."
Did she try it before? That's cool. I quickly process a circular wand but have a flat surface on the bottom so that she could place the magic circle. I took it out and gave it to her.
"Where… did you keep this long wand? You own an interdimensional pocket!?"
"Not exactly that, in any case, try putting your magic circle on this flat surface here."
I pointed out at the bottom part of the ninety centimeters wand.
"What type of magic would you like me to enchant on it?"
"Hmm, for now, try an identical magic circle similar to the one that you enchant to this room."
Amanda nodded her head and started focusing her magic. Hmm now that I am staring at her, she looks gorgeous. Though I don't have any feeling of love towards her, my heart might change in the future.
"Raul?"
"Oh sorry… Eh, you are done?"
"…Uhm… Is it bad?"
"No, no, no. Isn't that awesome!?"
"R-Really?"
"Yes! We can do this all day! How's your magic power? Unfortunately, my magic power is insufficient. Thus I need to rely on yours for this experiment."
Rather than that, I don't even know how to use my magic power.
"Alright."
"Er… Sorry, try pointing it out from the room."
"??"
She was confused by my words, but she agrees nevertheless. In a split second, a bright light envelope the whole wand. At the same time, the magic circle on the wand appears to have to illuminate itself and have a totally different color than the wand itself. A light blue color.
Amanda was stunned for a while, but she manages to quickly handle the situation, as it seems that the tip of the wand has created particles of magic and it seems to be unstable. Amanda immediately points it out to the tree that she saw in front of her.
In an instant, the wand shot out the magic particles and shoot dead, on the tree.
*Prssssshhhhhhhhhh
Somehow a loud explosion was heard. A soldier was shouting and screaming as if they were attacked. There were some that thought there was an assassination happening in the palace.
The door to our room was smashed in.
Can't they open it like normal?
"Amanda are you alright!? Did he rape you?"
"Raul, did I do something wrong for you to cheat on me?"
What the hell is wrong with these two ladies. The trust that they have is significantly weak!
"Pfftt… Hahahaha, Eliza, there is nothing wrong. We were researching on our new-found discovery."
"Eh? Y-You mean the blast is from your magic circle?"
"Yup, fumu fumu hehe hehe…"
Eliza facepalmed herself.
Anderson, on the other hand, was clueless.
"What magic circle? What power?"
"This is bad… I didn't know my sister would be the one that came out strong in this."
"Just out with it already? Why are they laughing like that? It's so creepy!"
"Shana? Let's have our early lunch alright."
"Sure Miri. Let's go."
As if they know what to expect both of these two had planned to run away from the impending situation that is happening right in front of them.
"As you know my sister is an apprentice of Garcis."
"Go on…"
"Well, technically I was trying to scare Raul away so that he would be willing to marry me."
"P-Princess you are so sly!"
"T-That's not important now… It seems rather than being feared… Raul common sense has made my plans fail again. Well, both are the stupid genius type anyway."
"Hey!" x2 Amanda and I shouted at Eliza for insulting us
"...They created more problem for us huh…"
"Hey, Raul? What kind of power did you do?"
"Huh? It's the same power that we are feeling right now in the room."
"What Raul said is correct, I've put an identical magic circle on the wand."
"T-Then what is that?"
I looked out the window and saw that the whole park outside is covered in ice. There were even birds and a couple of animals that had frozen. They died without knowing what happens.
"Why the hell are we experiencing winter right now!?"
"It seems I put too much power to kill insect... Tee hee!"
"Don't tee-hee me, sis! Are humans insects to you!? Did you see that eagle? They aren't even supposed to be there! How big is the magic circle affecting?"
The eagle that she is pointing looks to have smashed into pieces… I'm sorry.
"S-Sorry Eliza…"
"And you Raul! Why are you the one that makes it worse?"
"W-What did I do?"
"There's not once in her life that she made such dangerous magic!"
I shrug my shoulder, what do you expect me to say? I thought Miri told me that the weapon could handle eighty-five percent of magic power? This doesn't look to be eighty-five percent at all.
