Chapter 5 On the eve of the tasting meeting
One day, Westerly Square -
Louise dragged Sakura here, where many second-year students were training demons.
"The host...... Do you think there's anything I need special training for?," Sakura asked, puzzled. β
"It's time for the tasting tomorrow, ah...... I almost forgot about such an important thing. An annual event that showcases the newly summoned demons of the students. In a word...... At least I don't want to lose face in front of everyone. Louise said.
"Based on my current physical condition, apart from Tabasha and the blue wind dragon, well, it's called Hilfield, there shouldn't be any demon who can surpass me. Sakura said confidently. β
"Stupid, it's not for you to go to a duel! It's a theatrical performance, and ordinary demons can perform all kinds of unique performances according to their physical abilities, but you're human...... How could I be such a demon? Louise grumbled.
"If it weren't for me, there wouldn't be anyone to clean your room and do your laundry. Sakura informs here. β
"Ahhh
"Hmm...... Judging from their training, it should be the cooperation of the master and the demon......, right? It's not without ideas. I think you're pretty good at exploding, aren't you?" Sakura asked.
"Huh?!Even you're sarcastic about me!I just can't do any magic, I'm 'Louise of Zero!'" Louise shouted as she put her face against Sakura's face.
"No, no, I'm serious. Sakura took a step back and continued, "Because the master only explodes, no, only you can use explosions, which is unique, so let's just use the theme of 'art is explosion', and chant magic only to explode, and don't have extra spells." Sakura wondered if she could talk to Deidara and find a time to see if she could summon him.
"Explosion, can it really be the subject?"
"Let's not talk about that, I have a plan, what kind of demon does the master originally want?" Sakura asked. β
Louise pointed to Hilfield in Tabasha.
"Your extravagance is really high. Sakura said angrily. But he still pulled Louise to a secluded corner where no one was around, and stamped it with one hand.
Transfigurationββββ
"Bang!" Sakura turned into Hilfield's appearance in a puff of smoke.
"You, you, you............ Dragon?!" Louise's eyes straightened.
"I'm not a dragon, it's just a trick!" Sakura had a bad premonition.
"So, can you become anything else?" continued Louise's eyes.
"Anything, okay. Sakura felt that she had done something wrong, but she demonstrated it anyway, and continued to transform into Louise herself, Tabasha, Turuk, Montmorency, and Shesta............
"That's it!You're going to transform!" Louise was as excited as if she had discovered a new world.
"Alas, master, I am for your own good. Sakura turned back to her original form and said, "If you continue like this, your presence will be replaced by me sooner or later." Sakura told solemnly. β
"Hmph, the glory of the demon is the glory of the master. Louise disagreed.
"That's if I'm not human. Sakura said to her master again. β
"So, what else do you have in mind?"
Sakura leaned into Louise's ear and said a few words.
"Well," said Louise, who seemed to think very seriously, "indeed, it will make me raise my eyebrows, but if I fail, I won't have your food for a week!"
"If you want to make a mistake, you will make a mistake, right?"
"Success is mine, failure is yours. β
"............" Sakura was speechless at the unreasonable statement.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The day before the tasting, at night.
Sakura stays in Louise's room, busy preparing for the next day, and Louise attends the welcoming ceremony to welcome Princess Ann Rietta during the day, and for some reason hasn't returned yet.
"Hula-" It was a masked man in a black cloak who appeared and jumped in from the window behind Sakura, the third floor, who had apparently flown up with magic.
"Who?!" Sakura immediately turned around and looked at the visitor warily.
"Ahh
"First of all, who are you?"
"I'm ...... Louise's ...... Friends, yes are friends. β
"Friend, then why are you masked? I'm familiar with this academy, so why don't I feel like you?"
"This ............"
"Really?" Before the other party could react, Sakura stepped forward and kicked off the opponent's wand. And directly buckled the other party to the ground, "Many magic makes once they lose their wands, they become inferior to ordinary people, it seems that you also belong to this kind of person." β
"Yes, apart from the magic guards, there are not many nobles who are demonic and martial arts, and there are even fewer magicians who can cast spells empty-handed. The man replied in a serious manner.
"Bang!" At this moment, the door opened, and Louise appeared in the door with a smug face, "Win, I finally won the duel with Truuk!"
"Master, you're coming back so late to duel with Talluk?" Sakura asked. β
"That Truuk actually asked me if I wanted to rent her salamander for a maid for half a day, is this the demon who is laughing at me for not knowing it?
"I see, did you win her by singing the explosion?" Sakura asked again. "Sakura has also watched these two duel before, it seems that they are still enemies, and Louise used to sing different attributes indiscriminately.
"yes, what's wrong?"
"Doesn't that mean that your explosion is also a form of magic and not a mistake? Sakura briefly analyzed. β
"Ah, what's that down there?" Louise only then noticed Sakura's underneath her.
"Louise Francis, it seems that you have a very good magician. The man said.
The voice...... Could it be ......" Louise was shocked.
"The master knows?" Sakura pulled off the man's mask, revealing a girl with short purple hair and a crown.
"What have you done to Her Highness!" Louise was shocked and angry.
Thirty seconds later-
Louise and Sakura salute the nobles and servants of the fully dressed Ann Rietta, respectively.
"Your Royal Highness, please rest assured, I will punish my rude demon envoy well. Louise said with her head down.
"No, no, no, if I can have such a demon by my side, I think I will be very relieved. Ann Rietta said with a smile and stepped forward to hug Louise.
"Her Royal Highness Princess...... No, that's rude......" Louise said with some crampedness.
"No! Louise Francis. Don't be so serious...... Have you forgotten that you and I are friends......" Ann Lietta ignored Louise's words and continued to hug Louise affectionately.
"This ...... This is too much for His Majesty to fear...... Your Royal Highness, how can I ...... the humble one," Louise insisted on saluting.
Louise ...... I'm so disappointed...... Aren't we good friends? There are no military ministers, no queen mothers, no palace nobles, I am only here to see friends who are of the same heart as me, Louise Francis, a former childhood sweetheart, I need friends rather than vassals, if you continue like this, what is the point of me coming here?"
"Your Royal Highness............ Princess," Louise couldn't help but look up.
Then the two of them talked about all kinds of interesting things in the past, and Sakura was naturally left aside.
At the end, Angelita covered her face again and prepared to leave, and said, "Thank you, Louise Francis, and I look forward to tomorrow." (To be continued)
