Chapter 487 – Encounter.

“…Pirika-sama.”

Arriving at the station late, Paris gritted her teeth. The locomotive had already left and at least three more hours had to pass before the next train.

“Everyone bring Hildis Beanie.”
“Yes? What are you going to do…”
“Chase along the tracks.”

The locomotive’s own speed is slower than that of Hilldisbini. Even so, I couldn’t catch up because the start was delayed, but at least I wouldn’t miss it completely. I thought so and ordered it, but Paris realized that the knights did not move even when the order was given.

“What? Disobeying orders?”
“Calm down. It’s out of our jurisdiction.”
“Ha, then, do you intend to let go of the criminal who kidnapped Maenades?!”
“If you recklessly leave a jurisdiction and invade another jurisdiction, you may be subject to disciplinary action.”

When he frowned and glared at him, the captain who was leading them raised his hand and seemed to try to calm him down, but it only angered Paris.

“Then are you prepared to hold the criminal responsible for missing Maenades?”
“At least the punishment will be lighter than following the words of an outsider and leaving the precinct.”

He gnashed his teeth at the captain who responded calmly even when Paris glared at him.

“Okay. If you guys won’t follow me, I’ll go alone.”

He decided to drag his Hildis Beanie separately and turned around.

“Whoa, is it finally over?”
“I’m busy, so I’ll go right away.”
“I was at work too. What is this? You have to write in the police report.”

As soon as he fell, his knights began to disperse, each doing his own thing.

“Ha, just because one Maenades was kidnapped, do all the knights of the jurisdiction have to call it out?”
“Don’t tell me. I’m on vacation. I was called out.”

Faris understood their complaints coming from everywhere. Because it was he who summoned them despite the work and schedule given to them.

“Fuck, why the hell do we have to say that one of those bitches got kidnapped?”
“It can’t be helped. Maenades are women protected by the Führer.”

It’s about slandering and swearing at Maenades. It’s common among people, so I thought so. Because I had watched what the Maenades were doing while working alongside Pirika, I knew that they were more terrible than I could have imagined.

“Did Maenades, who is said to have been kidnapped, say it was Pirika?”
“Ah, that bitch? Selling is good, too. Did she sell her body to the Führer on the subject of a witch and become Mai Na Death?”
“Isn’t that a rumor?”
“Aren’t rumors supposed to be credible?

But as much as Pirika.

“You bastard. What did you just say?”

She couldn’t stand her swearing at Pirika.

“Those who spread groundless information about the Minades will be punished severely. You probably don’t know that, right?”
“Paris?! Calm down!”

Paris immediately went back and grabbed him by the collar, and the people around him tried to stop him in embarrassment, but to no avail.

“How unfounded! Is there a human being in Pasifeneia who doesn’t know that Mai and the Deaths are living a dissolute life while squandering her treasury!?”

Caught by the collar, he began to argue as if there was something wrong with him.

“Only a human like you doesn’t know! What about kidnapping! A bitch named Pirika just wants to hang out with a guy… Oops?!”

But he couldn’t even speak. Because the captain who led them before him kicked him in the shin and knocked him down.

“I’m sorry. This guy doesn’t know what to do, so I’ll deal with it on my own.”
“The crime is spreading rumors and insults about Maenades.

The captain listened to Paris’ story, nodded, and ordered the knights around him.

“Take him to the detention center.”

Confirming that his knights were dragging the fallen knight away, Faris started to run over his tracks with his Hill Diss beanie before it was too late.

“No matter how pretty it is, it’s Mainades. Would you like to do that?”
“It’s something we don’t know.”

The knights watched the back of Paris and turned around to do their own work.

-Kurrureuk!
‘Pirika-sama.’

Faris rode his white Hildis beanie as fast as he could over the submerged tracks. Chow! Every time Hill This Beanie took a step, finely scattered water droplets brushed past him, bringing back memories of his past.

“Are you engaged?”
“Hum-hum, that’s right. You know the witch who became Dimacaeri this time, right?”

It was the Führer Minos’ arrangement that Paris found out about Pirika.

“But then, isn’t it a witch? How could the president be a witch…”
“Uh-huh, now that she’s become Di Macaeri, she’s no longer a witch. She’s a valuable talent who will live for the country, avenging the sins of her ancestors.”

Minos, who made him the head of the family instead of the person from the main family, smiled warmly and talked like that.

“Make her my spouse, just by looking at her face. I want to hire her as her secretary. I’d like to hire her as her party.
“All right.”

Paris, admiring Minos’ thought and magnanimity, accepted his proposal. He was also a benefactor who brought him, who had been separated from his family, to the center of power, so he had no reason to refuse.

“Yes. That’s how it should be. Be sure to ask me.”

Even when Minos clasped his hand tightly and gave him strength, he thought it was just an obligatory marriage.

“Hello?”

Until I met Pirika myself. A beautiful voice that resonates cleanly and clearly. Hair that looks fluffy and soft like pieces of pure white clouds floating in the water.

White eyes sparkling like clear glass, as if cut and carved in the morning light. Even the body and atmosphere that are so tender that they seem to break if you squeeze them. There was nothing that didn’t captivate him.

“Paris.”
“Yes?”
“My name is Paris.”

Faris realized, feeling his heart pounding more than ever and his face rising with heat. The fact that she fell in love with her at first sight.

“I’m Pirika.”

Even her lips, which drew a faint arc, clearly intercepted his eyes, so it was a really embarrassing difference until you got used to it.

The world has changed since that day.

“Do you like rain?”
“Nothing like that…”

She tried not to show it as if she was shy, but every rainy day, Pirika, who leaned against her window and listened to the sound of the rain, smiled instead.

“Muuuuu, I’m tired. How much work is piled up?”
“I’ll help you.”
“Hya?! Oh, when did you come?”

When she was concentrating on her work, she didn’t even notice people approaching, so she was embarrassed when she pretended to be there. Thanks to that, when she was alone, I could hear her cute little complaining voice.

“This?”
“It’s Cochet. Don’t you like bitter things?”
“Ah, thank you.”

She preferred bitter drinks or fruits to sweet snacks. It was also surprising that she likes street food, especially vinegar-based fries.

“Paris. Why are you doing this to me?”
“Didn’t I tell you? I love you.”
“…I can’t accept it.”
“It’s okay. I’ll wait forever.”

Her own confession and her rejection, which she repeated over and over again.

“I am a witch.”
“You are Dimacaeri.”

Whether you know or not, the more you want to stand alone, the more you reach out to that precarious figure. She felt sorry for Pirika, who was belittling herself, and she couldn’t let it go.

I was getting to know her Pirika day by day and being satisfied with her daily life with her. She couldn’t take everything away from the sudden appearance.

As she recalled her past, Paris finally found Pirika in the distance. Even her figure of a strange knight holding her.

“Get your hands off Pirika-sama!!!”

As Usher put Pirika in her arms and heard her cry as she rowed, he turned to see Paris running across her waters on her Hill Dis beanie.

“That guy is also very persistent.”
“Usher…”

Usher met Pirika’s anxious gaze.

“I can’t help it if you persist like this.”
“What do you plan to do?”
“You have to fight.”

I could have taken the ferry away from the tracks anyway and went to a place where Hildisbini couldn’t come.

“But Paris…”
“Don’t even think about stopping it.”

It was not in my temper to just run away like this. Aren’t you tired of running away already?

“You can’t lose.”

Faced with her white light, Usher stepped down from the boat and stood on the rails as Pirika whispered helplessly.

“Are you not running away? You managed to stand in front of me.”
“You’re the one. You didn’t have any intention of fighting on a Hildis beanie, did you?”

What was most surprising to Usher was the fact that Paris didn’t run straight into the Hildis beanie. Even so, it would have been of no use.

“I am the one who catches you. What is the reason for defeating you and kidnapping Pirika-sama? I will dig into the purpose.”

Pirika, Elkanah, and Paris’ Hildisbini. Two men with three as spectators faced each other on a single track.

“I don’t like it either.”
“Ha, should I say fortunately? It’s the same.”

Sreung! They simultaneously drew their swords from their scabbards and pointed them at each other.
