[19] (EP-129.2) The Wise Queen #4

129 – The Wise Queen #4

Today, I realized that the gap between me and Aira was too overwhelming. Worse still, I couldn’t come up with a good strategy to overcome it.

“Hey, what are you guys doing, this late at night?”

Then someone suddenly approached.

It was Elga, who was running with her turtleneck tracksuit and short shorts which left her white thighs exposed.

“Oh, it’s Elga.”

“Aira, why are you out walking at this hour? You always go to bed early.”

“It’s because Theo wants to go for a walk today.”

“A walk?”

“Yes, I even saw Theo’s tail.”

“… Tail? What tail?”

Elga looked at me with a narrow gaze. Her blue eyes seemed to question, “Hey, what are you up to?”

“Haa-eu-um.”

Aira yawned.

“Now that Elga mentioned it, I’m getting sleepy. I’m going to bed now. Theo, let’s go.”

“Understood.”

I took Aira back to her room. Seeing her climb into bed, I closed the door and turned my head.

There I saw Elga looking at me with an angry expression.

“A walk with Aira, huh? What are you plotting?”

“Plotting?”

“You, don’t tell me-.”

Elga suddenly closed her mouth just as she was about to say something. It was not like Elga to stop talking halfway through, so I asked in return.

“Tell you what?”

As I urged her to speak, Elga looked around and cleared the surroundings before leaning closer to me, speaking in a voice only I could hear.

“You’re not aiming for Aira too, are you?”

“What nonsense is that?”

“Isn’t it? Well, even you wouldn’t be so stupid, are you? I mean, it’s Aira. She’s not the sanest. As you know, she’s not normal.”

Elga massaged her temple.

I didn’t expect her to gossip behind her cousin and the Queen like this.

Although she didn’t say it out loud, it seemed that Elga knew that Aira was not normal.

“Becoming an Archmage fries your brain. It is said that Mages who break through Rank 6 have deteriorating minds from seeing the gate of truth or something.”

“Hmm.”

I’d heard this story before. The Black Mage Grandfather of the Board of Arc was said to have lost his mind as he reached the 6th Rank.

Suddenly, I felt afraid.

Would I also lose my sanity after reaching Rank 6?

Useuseuseu- As a chill ran down my spine, Elga crossed her arms and mumbled, “Hmm-.”

“But recently, Aira has changed a lot compared to before. Her personality became a lot calmer. I can actually hold conversations with her now.”

“From Elga-nim’s perspective, has Aira-nim changed a bit?”

“Yes. But if you think about it, Aira was originally like this. It’s only after the incident with her siblings that she became withdrawn.”

“Ah.”

Elga seemed to know about Aira’s princess days.

“What was Aira-nim like when she was a princess?”

“She was beloved and cute. She would always follow her sisters around like a doll while holding their hands-.”

Elga suddenly shut her mouth.

Her brows furrowed, then she suddenly growled at me.

“Hey, Theo Gospel. Why are you curious about the days when Aira was a princess?”

“No, it’s just-. As a loyal servant of the kingdom-.”

“You’re flustered right now.”

I’d had to sweat a lot trying to convince Elga after this. I even offered her a massage in her room.

In the midst of it, things took a sensual turn. I swiftly pulled down her dolphin pants and underwear, and plunged my ‘tail’ deep into her sweet cave.

“Hey, who told you-, heuung, euung…! Ang…!”

Elga pretended to dislike it at first, but she held tightly onto the bedsheet and even raised her hips as I continued my relentless attack from behind.

After an intense climax, I cuddled with Elga, gently stroking her hair. Her attitude had now softened a little.

“… Well, unless you go crazy, you won’t mess with Aira. Hueuu-“

In fact, it seemed that Elga didn’t genuinely believe that I, a former slave from a fallen noble family, would be aiming for the Queen.

I guessed she was just upset that I might show interest in another woman. Their feelings and actions were often different. Women were complicated to understand.

“So, what is that? It looks neat.”

As I pulled up my pants, Elga took an interest in the magic scroll hanging on my waist. So I told her about what happened today.

Jojaljojal.

“You fought with Hercules Wasps? That’s good. Those guys also live near Borgia. They’re quite annoying to deal with, they build their hives everywhere.”

It seemed that the Hercules Wasp I faced earlier was a pretty famous pest.

Although Elga seemed skeptical about me hunting the wasp, she still reluctantly accepted it after hearing my vivid description.

“But aren’t your skills growing too fast? Not long ago, you were as helpless as a newborn and couldn’t use a single magic…”

Was she suspecting my rapid growth? Well, it certainly did feel suspicious. After all, it seemed unusual even within Arc for someone to develop their magical abilities as quickly as I did.

“It’s probably because I’m a Half-Fairy.”

“… Is that so?”

I simply glossed over it. Fortunately, Elga also seemed to accept it and nodded her head. Then she said as if she just thought of something.

“Come to think of it, the Board of Directors are looking for you. I was busy with the access screening today, so I had a conversation with them.”

“By Board of Directors, do you mean the High Road’s Sages?”

I recalled the Archmages I had seen at the entrance ceremony. Come to think of it, they asked me for help with some magic research. I thought they forgot because they hadn’t contacted me for a while after school started.

Elga further explained.

“Back then when we defeated Professor Balan, she was like a puppet controlled by the Demon King’s spell. I guess they have something to say about that.”

“I see.”

“I don’t know the details. Maybe Professor Balan regained consciousness. Anyway, that should be the message.”

Professor Balan, huh?

That was good. I also had a lot of things to ask her.
