68 – The Maiden and the Snake Owner

“It was as expected. Las Pios, the only son of the Viscount Pios family, was right to slay the lower demons.”

Even though the weather has become quite warm, she still muttered as she dipped into the boiling coffee, graffias looking at her documents on her desk.

Even as she smiled, saying that her own hunch was right, her eyes quickly ran through her letters.

“Las Pios. You’ll be entering the academy this year… You’re only one year older than Shaula. Why does the quiet Pios family have such talent?”

She frowned and tapped her desk with her fingers. When she snapped her fingers, the door opened and a maid with a mask covering her face entered.

“Data on the Fios family. Right now.”

The maid, who nodded silently in a determined voice, returned 10 minutes after leaving the visit and found a copy of ‘The Fios Family Family Tree’, bound in stiff leather, and a piece of paper with ‘About the Fios Family’ written on it, possibly made recently. Handed over a bundle

Upon receiving the materials from her, she silently bowed her head and was absorbed in the materials she received without paying attention to the maid who went out of her room.

What was the demon looking for in the insignificant Fios family’s territory, and why did they go all the way there? She was the one who started to climb up from her roots step by step in order to find the secret of the Fios family.

As she climbed up the deep rootstock of the Fios family, which boasts a surprisingly deep history of 500 years, her fingers stood tall and stopped.

I looked at the bundle of papers, frowning at the data that the roots of deep history and the previous history had been lost without a single piece, but it was the same.

By her ancestry, it was her who started to question her on the level that she literally jumped in and out, based on what, she was not recognized by anyone for a title or anything like that.

“Why do you think it was lost so unnaturally? As if it was trying to erase the traces, it was lost all the way from there with careful attention. What to hide…?”

She patted her temple and fell face down on her desk. Her research was messed up, and her material wasn’t very cool, so it was to give her overworked brain a break.

“The Fios family…What happened to the quiet, but very quiet family… I’ll have to send a letter asking them to approach Shaula first.”

The letters written with the lightly held pen quickly went down the letter.

Why did that gray-haired boy, Lars, accompany Spica in the Birgo family carriage?

And why did they arrive at the same time as we, after skipping lunch and shopping in the capital?

The Virgo family was so close that it would leave early in the morning and arrive late that night if a skilled coachman drove the wagon quickly.

Nevertheless, Spica’s power of action arrived in front of the Pios family’s mansion, which is located farther away than ours, on the morning heading to the capital, so it was an irresistible matter for him.

A beautiful childhood friend who drove a carriage all the way to the house said she was afraid to go alone and asked to go with her.

In the end, it was natural for them to arrive at the same time as us, having departed from the fios family’s territory.

But I didn’t know we would run into each other like this.

In the novel, it only says afternoon, so how do I know that? Besides, it’s around lunchtime!

While I was sighing at the belated reality and wondering how to respond, the young lady stuck her head out of the carriage.

“What’s up?”

“It’s nothing special… The Lady of the Birgo family must have come to the academy for the first time today. As you can see, she came out of the carriage…”

I turned my head to look at the two, and the lady also followed my gaze.

“Look at Ras! The academy is bigger than a normal town! There’s even a mage tower over there! It’s so amazing!”

“Spica, if you suddenly run out of the carriage, you’ll get hurt. And then you have to go back to the carriage. Don’t bother the people behind you.”

Showing the atmosphere of the two people in full swing, he shrugged his shoulders and put his head into the carriage with a sullen expression.

“It’s not that narrow. Just step out of the carriage so we can pass. It won’t spoil the excitement, will it?”

“That’s right. I remember when we first came to the academy. At that time, Shaula-sama said she would buy me, and the lady…”

Before I could finish my words, the carriage door opened violently and hit me hard. It was enough that the door hinges did not break when the young lady kicked them.

“…Stop talking nonsense and come and go quickly…”

If you just bring up old stories, you’re like that. I got off the wagon and slowly approached them step by step.

My heart was pounding.

The pressure of having to face the main character and the first heroine in the novel.

Again, in the anxiety of not knowing what impact I might have.

My heart was beating wildly.

The first person to notice my approach was Spica, who was staring intently at me with emerald green eyes and long light pink hair that was as rich as cherry blossom leaves.

「Spica Virgo」

As the only daughter of the Virgo family, she is fluent in the family’s arcane magic, the healing of virgins.

Although the estate is a bit far away, it was the closest compared to the estates of other families, and since the parents of the two had been close, she had been living with him since childhood.

Las, a tall boy with dark gray hair and eyes that seemed to see a cloudless sky, stood beside her and grabbed her by the arm and dragged her to his side.

Perhaps I looked menacing, I could see that I was very nervous.

It was the same here that I was nervous. The dry saliva was swallowed in one gulp.

I knew at least that I was going to face them.

But who would have known that we would meet like this?

The main character of a novel that I read with excitement and excitement. I could see myself struggling to erase my expression in Lars’ eyes.

I respectfully bowed my head, feeling that I would not be able to hide my expression any longer.

“Nice to meet you. Spica of the Virgo Marquess House of the Virgo Palace and Ras of the Viscount Pios House of the Sagyeon Palace are greeted by Sirius, the butler of the Taurus Family of the Golden Horde.”

I thought as I lowered my head. Can I really be in front of them?

According to the contents of the novel, behind the two people who were so excited, a fight broke out because a fool blocked the carriage they were riding in.

After Lars apologizes politely and before getting on the carriage, he sees Spica’s beauty and can’t stand the stupid remark that is close to s*xual harassment.

The fool in question was an ally, the third prince of Mars Kingdom.

In place of the three princes, the butler of the same pillar, the Taurus family, greeted them.

As if looking at a character in a fairy tale.

“Ta, the butler of the Taurus family?! Really?”

It was the lively Spica that responded first. Her green eyes twinkled at her as she approached, her hands clenched into fists close to her chest, and it was almost unnerving.

“Spica, the butler is in trouble. You pushed too hard.”

As I said that, Lars’ eyes staring at my face were as bright as hers.

I lamented in my heart at the overreaction. Butler… Why the hell are you making it so hard on me…

If you don’t look at my face, I’m sure you’ll have an embarrassing expression. Two people who barely got away were waiting for me to open my mouth.

“…As I said, I am the butler of the Taurus family. I’m very sorry to have to say this, but could you move the wagon a little aside as our wagon has to pass?”

“Yes! No, let’s go together! My mother said that Princess Europa of the Taurus family is quite beautiful, so I really wanted to see her!”

I don’t know what to do when the overly excited Spica snorts and says he likes it. Even in the novel, Lars’ position, which was dragged around every time, was understood.

The Marquis Lady, who overwhelmingly lives in her own world, approached our carriage.

“Sorry…My friend is a bit…Active…”

Lars, a handsome boy a little shorter than me, cautiously approached me and bowed his head. As in the novel, he was the main character himself who was humble and knew how to be considerate of others.

Even in the novel, he was a man of common sense who was dragged along by abnormal heroines, but he was like a warrior, sacrificing himself in an emergency or a life-and-death situation.

A faint smile naturally formed on his bowed head. I thought he would be difficult too.

“I’m fine…But I don’t know if my lady will be okay.”

I wanted to ignore our wagon, which was rambling as soon as I finished my words.

“J… Butler, please help…!”

Until Mr. Ruitena asks for help.

Since we all got into our carriage, there were not enough seats, so Mr. Ruitena voluntarily went to the driver’s seat. I listened to the conversation of the three people behind the sweet conversation of the two people that I heard from time to time.

“Greetings to Europa Taurus, who will become the pillar of the empire. I am Las Pios of the Viscount Pios family of Sagyeon Palace. Please take good care of me.”

“Thank you, Lars.”

“Me and Lars have been close since we were 5 years old!

No, I didn’t tell you… Her voice, high enough to make her ears bleed, didn’t end.

“Europa-sama, I don’t know how many times I have to say I’m beautiful to be satisfied with myself. It’s more dazzling than what my mother said, so I can’t look straight at it!”

“…Okay, stop it…”

She almost laughed when she said she was dazzling and pretended to cover her eyes.

In contrast, the lady sitting next to me couldn’t adapt to this high tension and was holding onto my arm and cringing. I would have thought that the lady who never lost to other heroines would be weak against this kind of thing.

“I told you to speak comfortably! You are a senior and older than us, but it’s okay!”

“Whew…Okay. Can you lower your voice a little? It’s too much pressure…”

“This is enough!”

“A little more…”

“This is enough!”

What has changed?

I felt a little understanding of the complaints of the companions who said they were noisy throughout the novel. The lady kept asking for it to be lowered, and finally it was set to a suitable height.

“It’s a little easier now. But is there anything you’d like to ask?”

“Yes! I wonder how I’m going to be doing!”

“Hmm… Shall I explain the dormitory first? Did the servant come with you?”

“There’s a guy in the carriage over there! He’s a maid I’ve been with since I was little, and he’s always kind!”

…That maid, a human belonging to the Dark Star, on the side of the demons…

Later on, her betrayal shatters Spica’s strong spirit. It was her job to save her from falling into her mistrust of humans.

All the Twelve Pillars have been threatened by the Dark Star. Perhaps those who aimed at the young lady were hired by the Dark Star.

Spica, to be exact, Virgo’s special arcane magic, Virgin’s Healing, was the only healing magic except for the healing magic that priests could use.

You can use virgin healing, but the most important is spirit. It means a virginity that does not break even under external pressure, and after the incident, the healing technique cannot be used for a while.

It is right to cut off the yellow buds, so I wouldn’t hesitate to call the maid separately and threaten or imprison her. The time has come to mobilize everything that has been taught in the family.

“Why are you making such a scary face? The two of you are scared.”

The girl who pinched her arm brought back the spirit that had gone far. Lars and Spica’s expressions were unusual, as if they were making scary expressions.

“…I’ve been thinking about something else for a while. I’m really sorry, you two.”

“You must be serious. As if you’re going to kill someone…”

Lars cautiously opened her mouth before closing it hastily. The honesty in his humility was sometimes a detriment.

“hahahaha, it’s not that serious.”

Well, it’s nothing serious. I plan to pull out two toenails so that it doesn’t show.

“Then why don’t you take it seriously like you’ve been through everything in the world? Are you going to cause trouble in front of the guests?”

Because of the lady who was pinching her triceps as hard as she could, it felt like her arm was paralyzed. After bowing my head and apologizing to them and giving them advice on how to get along at the academy, we arrived at our destination, the dormitory.

“That’s the academy building. First, you go through the admissions confirmation process there, and then you get assigned to the dormitory, so it’s better to keep riding the carriage.”

“Thank you! Europa-sama, no, senior!”

As she left her carriage, her young lady waved her hand and greeted her as she saw her making noise, and Lars acted politely until he got into her carriage.

“…It’s embarrassing to have a really noisy junior.”

“I’m sure. I’m already exhausted.”

We got out of the wagon and brought our luggage to the front of the lady’s room.

“Are you here? You’re very late?”

“Oh, are you here? Everyone’s been waiting here.”

“Everybody was curious about how you were doing. Why didn’t you come empty-handed, so I brought a few refreshments.”

“…Hello.”

They were the pillars of the distant future, each saying hello.

…Why are you here…

I felt like I was about to lose all my stamina before the unexpected second round.
